Xia Jinjun brought his wife and daughter straight to Jinyifang. When Boss Su saw them, he quickly put down his business and came over to greet them. He was very polite, which made Xia Jinjun feel respected.
As a scholar, how can I not care about my reputation?
Xia Zhiliao silently urged his mother to get down to business.
Xia Chenshi then spoke, "Boss Su, this is the embroidery I finished these days, please take a look..."
"No need to look at it, just leave it there. I will definitely help you sell it first." Boss Su said generously.
"You... just take a look. You are knowledgeable and if there is anything wrong with the embroidery, I can improve it."
Boss Su smiled slightly, "If that's the case, then I'll take a look. My sister-in-law's craftsmanship must be correct."
Boss Su thought about it and realized that he owed the other person such a big favor. Even if it was not easy to sell, he could not treat the other person unfairly. He tried to find a way to sell it. But when he saw this, he was speechless for a long time.
Xia Jinjun stood up quickly, thinking, I'm done for, my wife's embroidery is not very good, and she is not satisfied.
[Look, take a good look, my mother's embroidery is beyond reproach. ]
The next moment, Boss Su looked at Xia Chen with great joy, "Sister-in-law, your embroidery is really good. The patterns are exquisite and unconventional. And the embroidery method is comparable to that of a master. Excuse me, who is your master?"
Boss Su's reaction left the couple a little confused. Xia Chen had never been recognized like this since she could remember, and she was a little at a loss at the moment.
“I…I…”
Xia Zhiliao's warm little hand tightly held his mother's calloused hand and she smiled widely.
[Mom, don't be nervous, speak slowly, Boss Su doesn't eat people. ]
Xia Chenshi was amused by the little girl and relaxed a little. "I... I don't have a master. I've been embroidering like this since I started."
Boss Su became even more excited. "So you learned it by yourself? Oh, sister-in-law, you are really amazing. This embroidery method is very similar to that of a master in Beijing. I thought you had some connection with that master."
Xia Chen shook her head. "I am just a country woman. I have never even been to a county town, let alone the capital."
Boss Su looked at the woman in front of him and couldn't help but reveal his admiration. He didn't have any other intentions, he was just excited, but Xia Jinjun looked a little nervous.
[The way Boss Su looks at my mother...tsk tsk tsk...if Daddy goes to find that woman, then Mom and Boss Su are not bad either. Boss Su is a good person. I think it's okay for him to be my stepfather.]
Xia Jinjun became even more panicked. His biological father was already there, so why did he need a stepfather?
He quickly picked up his daughter who was lost in thought, and then twitched his lips, "Boss Su, according to you, my wife's embroidery should be very popular?"
Boss Su nodded excitedly, "It's more than just selling well. Oh, you are really the benefactors of our Su family. I won't hide it from you. My sister-in-law's craftsmanship may help our Jinyifang to a higher level."
Xia Chen was a little at a loss after hearing what she said. Is she... really that powerful?
[That's right, my mother is so amazing. Boss Su, you really have good taste.]
Hearing his youngest daughter praising Boss Su, Xia Jinjun felt relieved. He couldn't give the man an opportunity, otherwise his wife and daughter would become someone else's.
Of course, he also had to do something to stop his little daughter from worshipping Boss Su.
"Boss, do you have any..."
When they were having a pleasant conversation, a soft female voice suddenly appeared, breaking the harmonious atmosphere.
Xia Zhiliao looked back and saw a graceful woman with a slender figure and charming expression, who was staring at her father with a look of surprise.
She looked at her mother's face again and saw that it was very unhappy.
As smart as she is, she might have guessed the identity of this woman.
[Could this be the Huiru? How could this be such a coincidence? ]
Xia Jinjun thought about what his daughter said yesterday, how could there be so many coincidences, and felt that this might be Bai Huiru's design.
His heart tightened a little.
"Brother Jinjun, what a coincidence, you are here too?" Bai Huiru seemed not to have seen Xia Chenshi. Her watery eyes swept across the mother and daughter, and stopped at Xia Jinjun's face, then she lowered her head shyly.
Xia Jinjun saw that his little daughter looked unhappy, and was so scared that he wanted to take a few steps back and distance himself from her. "No... Unfortunately, we are just about to leave."
After Xia Jinjun finished speaking, he glanced at his dumbfounded wife, took her hand, and said, as if to prove something, "Boss Su, leave the thing here. I'll come back in two days."
"Okay, no problem. Just leave it here and I will definitely sell it to you at a good price." Boss Su didn't know all this and was wondering why the man was leaving in such a hurry.
Bai Huiru also noticed Xia Jinjun's panic, but she curled the corners of her lips slightly. How could she be panic if she didn't feel guilty?
Just as the family of three passed by her, she spoke softly again, "Is this my sister-in-law? When I met Brother Jinjun yesterday, I said I would go to her house to visit her. I didn't expect to meet her here."
[That’s enough. I’m afraid my mother doesn’t know that my father went to see you yesterday. Isn’t that too bad? ]
Xia Jinjun didn't realize it at first, but when his daughter reminded him, he felt that it was right. Was Huiru afraid that his wife wouldn't be angry?
Xia Zhiliao pouted and made a face at the woman.
[Mom, don't be afraid of her. You are the principal wife now, and she is the bad woman outside. You have to defend your sovereignty.]
Xia Chen originally felt a little ashamed of herself when she saw the woman who was glamorous and beautiful. No wonder Jin Jun fell in love with her at first sight and still couldn't forget her now. Compared with her, she was really far inferior.
But after hearing what her daughter said, she thought, if she lost, what would happen to her children?
She forced a smile. After all, she was always weak and had never had such a confrontation with anyone. "It's Sister Huiru. What a coincidence. Yesterday, I heard Jinjun say that you were back, so I wanted to invite you to come home and have a visit."
After saying this, Xia Chen felt like she was going to faint. It was really scary.
"Sister-in-law is such a good person. In that case, I wonder if it would be convenient for you tomorrow..."
"It's not convenient!" Xia Jinjun quickly refused and glanced at his daughter, fearing that she would be unhappy. "I still have to study tomorrow, and your sister-in-law has something to do too."
Xia Zhiliao was stunned. What happened to his father?
[Why did Daddy reject this bad woman? Could it be that she wanted to have a secret tryst with me? ]
Xia Jinjun was completely wronged, why didn't his daughter believe him?
He must not have done well enough.
Bai Huiru's smile froze. "It doesn't matter. I'll be staying for a while this time. Another day..."
"Hui Ru, oh no, Madam Lu, my humble abode is simple and cannot be compared with the Hou Mansion. I really cannot entertain you, so forget it."
After saying that, Xia Jinjun looked at his daughter, like a child waiting for praise.
Zhiliao, come and take a look, Dad has nothing to do with this woman.
