Chapter 146 Chapter 148 Apology
Lu Huazhi was setting dishes at the dining table. She looked at her sister intently and shook her head in disappointment. She didn't know how her mother, who was such a smart person, could teach her sister to be like this.
But no matter how disappointed she is, she is still her own sister and she still has to teach her.
"Jinzhi, you really make me worry. Look at you, you are so old, but you don't think before you speak. Walls have ears, but you shout so loudly, are you afraid that others can't hear you?" Lu Huazhi nodded her sister's head and said in a low voice!
"Why should I be afraid of others hearing me? What did I say wrong?" Lu Jinzhi had just been scolded by her sister last night, and she couldn't help feeling very aggrieved when she heard this.
"Guests are welcome. It's our courtesy when we invite people to dinner. Whether they come or not is their business. You are shouting so loudly and slandering others. If others hear it, it's your fault! What can't be said in a low voice behind closed doors? You have to shout so loudly that others can hear it." Lu Huazhi frowned and lectured.
"But this is our territory, why are you being so cautious?" Lu Jinzhi said with an unhappily pouted mouth.
"How dare you say that? This town is run by Qingchen for the old lady. How come it becomes our territory?" Lu Huazhi looked at her sister speechlessly!
"Didn't you say before that as long as I marry Brother Qingchen, we will have the final say here?" Lu Jinzhi finally lowered her voice!
"That's because I didn't know you were going to threaten him with Uncle Qingchen's matter, not to mention that the old lady almost lost her life because of this matter. You can forget about marrying Qingchen." Lu Huazhi was furious when she thought of the stupid things her sister had done.
"Why do you think I wanted to treat him to a meal? You've also met Doctor Rong. He's about the same age as Qingchen, has a steady and dignified personality, and a gentle and generous appearance. He's the old lady's favorite type. Needless to say, his medical skills are superb. He saved the old lady's life. Last night, as soon as the old lady recovered, he personally cooked for her to welcome her. Look at what kind of treatment this is!" Lu Huazhi looked at her sister with a look of disappointment.
"You said that they didn't give me face. Why should they give me face? I reported to the old lady and Qingchen early this morning. We cooked to entertain her this morning and asked you to invite people. This was all for the old lady to see, in order to please the old lady and prevent her from pursuing you. Don't you know what you have done? You should go and invite people. If they want to come, they can come. If they don't want to come, they don't have to come. Did you have an argument with them?" Lu Huazhi did not expect that Rong Xianxian would not be able to refuse. After all, Doctor Rong did not seem to have an aloof personality.
"No, no, no. Besides, I don't want to please that old girl. She has always disliked me. My sister is in charge of the town's internal affairs and logistics. Why should I try to please others?" Lu Jinzhi said unconvinced!
"Jinzhi, I am in charge of the town's internal affairs and logistics, and it all depends on Qingchen's ability. Now the old lady is very satisfied with Dr. Rong. If she is willing to stay, she will become the hostess of this town, and then you will have a good life!" Lu Huazhi looked at her sister and felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
Of course she hoped that her younger sister could marry into the family. Liu Qingchen was a capable man. He was single now, and the old lady was still around, so she was quite caring towards her nephew Yihong and her as her sister-in-law. But when the old lady passed away or Liu Qingchen got married and had his own family, the depth of his relationship with her as his sister-in-law would depend on his wife's attitude.
But this younger sister has been spoiled by her parents. She is willful and stupid. It seems that she can no longer be relied upon.
"Impossible, how could Brother Qingchen fall for her? That woman has two burdens and is followed by several men. You can tell at a glance that she is not a decent person. Brother Qingchen is mine, we are childhood sweethearts." After hearing what her sister said, Lu Jinzhi retorted unconvinced.
"Don't talk nonsense." Lu Huazhi frowned and scolded.
"I'm not talking nonsense. She said it was inconvenient for her to go out and she didn't even show up. What nonsense is that? She must have been partying all night and couldn't get out of bed? I saw one of the men helping her take care of the child. It's already this late, but there's no sign of her." Lu Jinzhi said sarcastically with a pout.
"Are you telling the truth? You didn't see her?" Lu Huazhi asked thoughtfully.
"It's true. I was angry because she didn't show up!" Lu Jinzhi answered affirmatively!
"Then why didn't you say it earlier? Come on, follow me to Qingchen. You just said something rude and offended him. Let's go and apologize to Dr. Rong together." Lu Huazhi said with a smile!
Although they had only met once, Lu Huazhi believed that she had a good eye for people. She did not think that Dr. Rong had a bad character, but when Jinzhi went to invite someone, she did not show up, which was indeed a problem. The most likely possibility was that she was not in the house. The town was now surrounded by traps and countless mechanisms inside and outside. She had just arrived, and walking around everywhere was not the way for a guest!
"Why should I apologize? I won't go." Lu Jinzhi said angrily.
"You silly girl, if you don't want Dr. Rong to stay, just listen to me. I'm your biological sister, how could I harm you?" Lu Huazhi looked at her sister helplessly.
Rong Xianxian is obviously a capable person, and capable people are arrogant. No matter what her reason is for wandering around, if she is discovered and questioned, she will probably feel uncomfortable!
If Rong Xianxian left, she would train Jinzhen and coax the old lady well. Over time, Jinzhi and Qingchen might have a chance to achieve good things.
Lu Huazhi made up her mind and took Lu Jinzhi to find Liu Qingchen, saying that Jinzhi was ignorant and offended the distinguished guest, and asked him to go together to apologize to Dr. Rong!
Liu Qingchen glanced at Lu Jinzhi with disgust. Although he felt uncomfortable because of what he saw in the crystal ball, Rong Xianxian had cured Aunt Hu's illness after all. Liu Qingchen didn't want Rong Xianxian to suffer any grievances here, so he agreed!
Cui Lie and the others didn't know that Liu Qingchen was coming soon, but they also understood that they had agreed to stay for one night. Now it was already noon and he still didn't show up, which was not a good thing!
"Captain Cui, where did Sister Rong go? What are her plans for today? Did she tell you?" Wang Qirui asked impatiently!
"He should be back soon. Let's wait a little longer. If he hasn't come back yet, we can go out and look for him!" Cui Lie was more anxious than them, but he didn't dare to show it in front of the two children.
"Is Doctor Rong here?" As a few people were talking, someone knocked on the gate.
Xia Kai walked out and opened the door, and saw Liu Qingchen and two women standing outside the door!
"My sister couldn't speak just now and offended you all. I brought her here to apologize to Dr. Rong. May we go in?" said the older woman.
