Ji Yuqi stood there in a daze.
Pei Yucheng was sitting at the main seat in the restaurant.
Sitting on his right was an old lady with completely white hair.
Ji Yuqi glanced at the wall clock in a daze.
It's already 1:30 in the afternoon, why hasn't Pei Yucheng gone to work?!
Secondly, that old lady...
Before Ji Yuqi could think straight, Ji Niancheng had already shaken his limbs and struggled to slide off her. Once his feet touched the ground, he ran towards the old lady happily: "Grandma, Grandma..."
Hearing Ji Niancheng's cry, Ji Yuqi's already numb nerves became even more numb: This is Pei Yucheng's grandmother who was almost injured by her last time? !
Ji Yuqi's brain was completely unable to react.
When she was eighteen years old and in love with Pei Yucheng, Ji Yuqi would pester Pei Yucheng all the time, asking him to take her back to the Pei family to meet his parents.
At that time, she was particularly afraid of losing Pei Yucheng, and always felt that their relationship would be guaranteed only after meeting each other's parents.
At that age, Ji Yuqi was smart, pretty and confident, and always felt that she was particularly popular with the elders.
After five years, she finally saw the elder of the Pei family whom she had longed to see, but Ji Yuqi was...
How should I describe my mood at this moment?!
nervous?!
perturbed?!
Fear?!
Distress?!
None of it is right. To be more precise, it should be said that it is... horrifying.
That's right, it's a thriller.
It turns out that this is what it really feels like to meet the parents.
Ji Yuqi stood there, at a loss, completely unsure of how to respond.
Liu Tong, dressed in a black vest and suit and white gloves, was standing at the table serving. He noticed Ji Yuqi standing there like a wooden statue, with no intention of sitting down to eat. He glanced at the time on the wall clock and reminded her, "Miss Ji, the lunch time at the Imperial Mansion is always set at noon. It's already been delayed by an hour and thirty-six minutes."
"..." Ji Yuqi was confused and didn't quite understand the subtext of Liu Tong's words.
It was Aunt Liu who added, "Miss Ji, please come and sit down quickly. The steward is about to order the dishes to be served."
“…”Ji Yuqi.
Ji Yuqi didn't know where to sit.
Originally, she wanted to sit next to Ji Niancheng.
But Ji Niancheng seemed to have a special affinity with the old lady of the Pei family. When he arrived at the restaurant, he sat down next to her affectionately. With just a few words, he made her laugh out loud: "My dear great-grandson, you are my joy. Grandma really likes you so much. When you get better, move in and live next to me, okay?!"
Nanny Su, who was standing next to the old lady of the Pei family, was also amused by Ji Niancheng: "Did the young master inherit this temper from the second young master?! His mouth is as sweet as honey."
The old lady of the Pei family said, "He should learn more from his second uncle, so that he won't be like his father, who is so dull and a bit scary."
Ji Yuqi stood in the restaurant, feeling at a loss as to what to do.
Aunt Liu noticed her embarrassment and hurried forward to the dining table and moved a chair away: "Miss Ji, please sit here."
Hearing this, Ji Yuqi glanced at the location.
That is the first position on Pei Yucheng’s left.
It’s very close to Pei Yucheng.
Ji Yuqi subconsciously glanced at the man sitting in the main seat, who almost never looked at her directly.
After hesitating for a long time, she walked over slowly.
"Miss Ji, who gave you your pajamas?!" Aunt Liu couldn't help but frown when she noticed Ji Yuqi's clothes. Although Ji Yuqi didn't have any status in the Yu Mansion, no matter what Pei Yucheng's attitude was, she was still the one on Pei Yucheng's marriage certificate.
The pajamas that Ji Yuqi was wearing were not only what a servant would wear, but also had three stripes on the chest.
This is what a third-class maid wears.
The so-called third-class maids are those who do the dirtiest and hardest work in the imperial palace.
Lowest status.
Who has the guts to dress her like this?!
