Chapter 148 Watch your words!

Hearing the noise on the balcony, several people in the house followed the sound and saw the woman knocking something to the ground.

Principal Guo had a worried look on his face. He stood up and said, "I'll go take a look," and walked out.

Anyone could see that the hostess's attitude towards guests was indeed a little impolite, but Lu Jingchen did not show any dissatisfaction, and his expression remained normal.

Xia Qingli vaguely felt that the reason why the hostess disliked Lu Jingchen should be related to their deceased son, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart:

Was their son's death caused by Lu Jingchen?

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the woman outside yelling at Principal Guo. Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for the people in the room to hear:

"He knew your son was dead, but he still came here in a military uniform. I don't know who he was trying to provoke."

"He's a soldier. What else can he wear if not a military uniform? Shumin, are you too sensitive?" Principal Guo said in a low voice, and then continued:

"Besides, what does Guo Peng's death have to do with Jingchen? He served the country and sacrificed his life for the country..."

The woman called Shumin immediately interrupted Principal Guo's words, her tone full of dissatisfaction with Lu Jingchen:

"How can it be okay? Peng Peng admires him the most. If he hadn't been influenced by him, would Peng Peng give up his college studies and follow him to be a soldier? If he didn't want to join the army, then he wouldn't be able to, wuwu..."

The woman actually sobbed softly as she spoke.

"Oh, look at what you are doing?" Principal Guo hurriedly comforted:

"Okay, okay, don't be sad, our Guo Peng sacrificed his life for the country, he died gloriously, we should also feel glorious."

"I'm not as noble as you. I don't want any glory. I just want my only son to come back. He is only eighteen years old, woo woo..."

Hearing this, Xia Qingli completely understood why the woman disliked Lu Jingchen. Subconsciously, she turned her head to look at Lu Jingchen and saw that he was frowning with a complicated expression on his face, with guilt and self-blame intertwined, but helpless.

Knowing that he was upset, Xia Qingying was not in a position to say anything to comfort him in this situation. She hesitated for a moment, raised her hand and gently shook Lu Jing's hand, silently comforting him.

After Principal Guo cleaned up the broken flower pots on the balcony, he turned back to the living room. The three of them tacitly ignored the unpleasantness just now and talked about other topics.

Xia Qingying listened quietly. Occasionally, Principal Guo would say a few words to her, and he was very polite and did not ignore her. As they were chatting, there was a light knock on the door.

"Hey, who else is coming today?" Principal Guo asked curiously, and then got up to open the door.

Then Xia Qingxi heard his loud voice:

"Xiao Pu, it's you, come in quickly."

"Hello, Principal. Well, I happen to have a day off today, so I wanted to come and see you." A gentle female voice followed.

"What a coincidence, Jingchen and his wife are here too."

As they spoke, the two of them entered the house. Pu Yue put the fruits she bought on the table, then her eyes searched over and fell on Lu Jingchen's face. She greeted him with a smile and called him affectionately:

"Jingchen."

Then she looked at Principal Guo and said happily:

"Last time I said that Jingchen and I would come to see you together. I didn't expect to meet you together."

Obviously, Xia Qingxiang was sitting next to Lu Jingchen, but Pu Yue deliberately ignored her and did not greet her. It was obvious that she wanted to leave her aside.

"Xiao Pu, you're here." At this time, the woman came in from the balcony and said to Pu Yue. Her attitude now was obviously much better than when she saw Lu Jingshu and them.

"Teacher's wife." Pu Yue smiled and greeted her affectionately.

After sitting down, Pu Yue kept talking about what happened in school and what she did, and chatted with everyone, deliberately ignoring Xia Qingxi.

Although Xia Qingxi was a little disdainful of Pu Yue's deliberate little actions, she did not show any inappropriate expression and her attitude was still generous.

"My dear wife, which high school did you go to?" At this time, Principal Guo noticed Xia Qingxi who had been silent, and asked for fear of neglecting her,

"Principal, just call me Xiaoxia." Xia Qingxi said, and then answered frankly:

"I didn't go to high school."

Only people with low self-esteem would deliberately conceal and cover up. Xia Qingxi was not low self-esteem. On the contrary, she had a rich spiritual life and did not think it was shameful not to go to high school.

"Principal, you don't know yet, Qingxi is from the countryside. In the countryside, it's good for someone like Qingxi to finish elementary school and know a few words."

Pu Yue immediately took over the conversation and said with a smile. It seemed that she was speaking for Xia Qingxi, but in fact, she hinted that she had a low education and was an ignorant country girl.

"Humph." At this time, the woman next to Principal Guo suddenly snorted coldly, looked at Principal Guo and said:

"Your favorite student does not follow the usual path in everything. Not only did he not go to college, but he also married a wife who only has an elementary school education. Ha, he really regards knowledge as dirt."

Pu Yue was naturally happy to hear the woman belittle Xia Qingxi in this way. She wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate Xia Qingxi again, so she continued:

"Master's wife may not know, but I heard that Xiao Xia's father saved Jing Chen's brother's life. Xiao Xia was originally going to marry Jing Chen's brother, but later..."

Xia Qingling's face tensed. Pu Yue obviously wanted to embarrass herself. She didn't know if she was going to talk about the original body lying on the bed next. Just as she frowned, she suddenly heard Lu Jing Chen's voice suddenly raised. He interrupted Pu Yue and said in a cold voice:

"Doctor Pu, please watch your words!" After that, he looked at Pu Yue with cold eyes, and his voice became even colder:

"I want to know who said that?"

Lu Jingxie usually had a cold attitude towards people, but he rarely got angry. Pu Yue didn't expect that Lu Jingxie would defend Xia Qingli just by saying it. Seeing his obviously angry face, Pu Yue felt a little flustered and explained quickly:

"I, I just heard it."

Lu Jingxie looked at Pu Yue seriously with a cold face and said:

"You can eat anything you want, but you can't spread words randomly, especially nonsense like this!"
