Ye Shu picked up the handkerchief and wiped her mouth very elegantly, without any panic. She wanted to see what tricks Jiang Sui could come up with.
Looking at Luo Ming again, he also looked as if it was none of his business. He just focused on eating his own food. This family of three didn't seem to be familiar to each other, like strangers, and no one knew how they lived their daily lives.
The maid of the Ye Mansion led Jiang Sui to the reception room. Jiang Sui brought Ran Qiu with her, and at first glance, she really had the aura of a mistress of a family.
As soon as she sat down, someone brought her tea. Not long after, Ye Congwen came over, along with Ye Shu and Luo Ming.
As soon as Ye Shu came in, she saw Jiang Sui. She was wearing a pink and white dress with a wide-sleeved front and embroidered hibiscus flower. She also had a hibiscus flower hairpin of the same color on her head. It swayed slightly as she tilted her head, looking very elegant.
Her skin is white and rosy, as if it can be blown away. Her eyebrows are dark without any makeup, and her lips are red without any lipstick. She is so beautiful that makes people jealous.
Obviously, the last time I saw her, she was still dressed very simply as a country girl. But despite her inconspicuous appearance, she was bright enough with just a casual smile. Now that she had dressed up so carefully and seriously, Ye Shu felt ashamed of herself, but she just didn't want to admit it.
If she could stand in front of her and look her in the eye, perhaps she would be confident, but the problem is, she can't.
Seeing Ye Congwen coming, Jiang Sui stood up naturally and bowed to him. After all, he was the dean of the academy and half a teacher of Hechuan, so he should still show due respect to him.
"Meet Dean Ye!"
"Madam Jiang, there's no need to be so polite. Just be casual." Ye Congwen motioned for her to sit down.
He sat in the main seat, Ye Shu sat next to him, and Luo Ming also sat down silently. He was naturally stunned by Jiang Sui for a moment. A woman as bright as the wind and as beautiful as a flower would make anyone take a second look at her.
In addition, those classmates who had met Jiang Sui in the academy all spoke highly of her, saying that she was capable of both housework and housework, was good at business, and was well-educated and well-mannered.
This was probably the first time that Luo Ming met Jiang Sui. After silently glancing at Ye Shu beside him, he began to feel unbalanced again. Why should all the good things belong to him, Xiao Hechuan?
Ever since he married Ye Shu, the two have been like a pair of resentful lovers and strangers. It would be fine if they didn't meet, but once they did, they would have a quarrel.
"What's the matter that Madam Jiang came to your house in person today?" After a moment of silence, Ye Congwen asked.
Jiang Sui immediately perked up, fiddled with his sleeves, and started the main topic of today:
"President Ye, this is what happened. My family moved to a new house the day before yesterday. Thank you for thinking highly of our Hechuan family. You sent someone to deliver a gift early in the morning. Perhaps you did not inform Miss Ye in advance, so in the afternoon, Miss Ye specially asked someone to deliver a gift. You two are one family, so how can we accept two gifts from your family?
I am ashamed to say that you invited me and Hechuan to attend Miss Ye's wedding a few days ago, but I was busy with housework and did not come with you. I just took this opportunity to personally return the extra gift Miss Ye sent, and by the way, send my best wishes to Miss Ye and her husband!"
As Jiang Sui spoke, he tilted his head slightly to signal Ranqiu behind him. Ranqiu was holding a wooden box in his hand, which contained a statue of Guanyin, the Goddess of Fertility.
Ran Qiu walked up to Ye Shu, opened the box, and revealed the white jade Guanyin statue inside.
"Our lady wishes Miss Ye and her husband a happy and blessed life and a son soon!"
The Fertility-Giving Guanyin is relatively small, after all, Jiang Sui is reluctant to spend a lot of money on her. Moreover, she learned from Xiao Hechuan that the two people's marriage was not consensual, and they were a pair of resentful couples. Every day when she saw Luo Ming with a depressed look on his face, she knew how unhappy their married life was, and they were the type who were tired of each other.
In that case, she will send you a fertility-giving Guanyin statue to annoy you. Besides, Ye Shu is physically disabled and having difficulty giving birth is already difficult for her. Is this considered an insult to her?
Jiang Sui's soul comes from the modern era. Although her upbringing does not allow her to look down on disabled people, she thinks Ye Shu is too disgusting. She is simply not a human being and challenges her bottom line again and again.
If she doesn't fight back, does she really think she's easy to bully?
Sure enough, Ye Shu's originally expressionless face became a little unable to hold back after seeing the statue of Guanyin, and she showed her disgust without disguising it.
I'm afraid he's already gritting his teeth.
Moreover, Luo Ming sneered beside him. Ye Shu felt that he was helping others to slap herself in the face. If she had not been disabled, she might have gone up to him and slapped the Fertility-Giving Guanyin statue to pieces on the ground.
Ye Congwen sensed a hint of embarrassment, because his own daughter didn't show any reaction and just stared at the other person with hatred, so he had to signal with his eyes that Ruxing and Ruyue should come forward and accept the gifts.
"Ms. Jiang, this is very thoughtful." Ye Congwen wanted to say something polite, but just as he finished his words, he heard a clanging sound.
It turned out that when Ruxing walked forward, took the box and was about to step back, Ye Shu took the opportunity to raise her hand and slap the box to the ground. The box made a sharp sound, and the Guanyin statue inside rolled out, breaking a corner.
In the eyes of Buddhists, this behavior is terrible and is a great disrespect to Buddha. Ye Shu's actions will arouse public anger.
With this sound, Ye Congwen's heart was gripped tightly. Although he did not believe in these things, he had great respect for gods and Buddhas. It should be said that every human being would have a certain respect for gods and Buddhas.
But Ye Shu is not, so she is not human.
"Rebellious girl, what are you doing?" Ye Congwen stared at her seriously and scolded her.
Who would have thought that Ye Shu had an indifferent attitude, with a provocative smile on her face. She smiled at Jiang Sui in a very artificial way:
"Oh, I'm sorry, Madam Jiang. I just accidentally touched it. Who knew that this girl next to me would have such unsteady hands? I'll punish her by making her kneel under the sun for an hour with broken porcelain pieces on her body. Is Madam Jiang satisfied?"
This is full of green tea flavor. The key point is that she obviously did it on purpose, but she actually blamed Ruxing.
Ru Xing really has to take the blame for everything she does. When she heard that she was asked to kneel down on the porcelain, a trace of despair welled up in her eyes. She immediately knelt down to admit her mistake and begged for mercy:
"Miss, calm down. I didn't mean it. Please forgive me this time!"
Ye Shu glanced at her indifferently. She just said it casually and didn't think about other people's life or death at all.
Jiang Sui had never expected that Ye Shu, who had a pitiful and elegant face like a chrysanthemum, had such a vicious heart. In this weather, she had to kneel under the sun for two hours to deal with broken porcelain pieces. Wouldn't her knees be broken? Wouldn't she get heatstroke?
