"Yuan Keqing said that the purpose of the ceremony was to pull her out, but when I went in and watched..." Xu Mingzhen looked embarrassed and couldn't bear to say it. "You said that if you want to pull someone out, you should naturally do the action of pulling them out, right?"
Li Xiangrong said nothing and didn't nod.
But not denying it means acquiescence.
"But when I came in and saw them, they were both sitting in the pool," Xu Mingzhen said. "That wasn't a pulling motion. Keli was just holding Yuan Keqing, and Yuan Keqing was leaning against Keli's chest. Keli's hand was on Yuan Keqing's back, and... and..."
Xu Mingzhen shook his head: "I can't say it!"
"Anyway, no one who saw the scene back then would think it was a misunderstanding," Xu Mingzhen said. "Perhaps Keli, young and full of passion, couldn't resist the temptation. But no matter what, I think if I had arrived a step later, the two of them might have just..."
Xu Mingzhen saw that Li Xiangrong's face had darkened and looked unhappy.
Xu Mingzhen didn't say it directly.
"I'm not saying there's anything going on between them. It's just that Yuan Keqing's parents aren't around, and we're just her uncle and aunt, unable to make decisions for her," Xu Mingzhen said. "We really can't interfere with what's going on between her and Ke Li. Besides, she keeps crying and won't say anything no matter what I ask. I don't think we'll get anything out of her today."
"You are qualified to interfere in the affairs between Keli and Yuan Keqing. If you are dissatisfied with Keqing, as Keli's mother, you are qualified to speak up. But as his aunt, I really don't have the right to interfere too much."
"Besides, the relationship between our family and Yuan Keqing's family is really not good. They always feel that our family can't stand them getting better. If I intervene in this matter, they might think that I am angry that Yuan Keqing snatched the gift and can't stand their daughter finding a good husband and marrying into a wealthy family."
"It's already annoying enough with them. If they come to my house again because of this, I can't keep talking about it in our family. Ever since I married him, I've been cleaning up the Yuan family's mess. I feel so sorry for him."
"Then why... did you bring her here?" Li Xiangrong couldn't help but complain.
If Yuan Keqing hadn't been brought here, wouldn't these things have happened?
"You saw how she cried just now." Xu Mingzhen was also helpless. "She brought her mother and my mother to our house and refused to leave. The mother and daughter cried together, and my mother cursed at me."
Xu Mingzhen thought to herself that she had done a lot to show filial piety to Old Madam Xu, so it would be fine to let Old Madam Xu take the blame now.
Besides, there is no need for Mrs. Xu to show up.
It's rare that after all these years, Mrs. Xu finally has a place to use her skills, and she should really help out.
Yuan Keqing was arranged by Wei Zhiqian.
Naturally, there was no incident of Yuan Keqing, Xu Mingjing and Old Mrs. Xu going to the Tan family to make trouble.
"If I don't agree, they'll stay at my house and won't leave. They even brought up the incident of attending Madam Wei's birthday party that year, saying that I didn't bring Yuan Keqing with me at the time, but Yuan Keqing went on her own. If I don't bring her this time, Yuan Keqing will still find a way to get in. But if anything bad happens, don't blame them for not warning me."
"Do you still remember how Yuan Keqing got in to attend Madam Wei's birthday party back then?" Xu Mingzhen reminded.
Li Xiangrong's face suddenly darkened.
She remembers it so well!
Xu Mingzhen's words reminded her.
What if Xu Mingzhen didn’t bring Yuan Keqing this time.
Is Yuan Keqing going to ask Wei Keli to bring her in again?
This time is different.
After all, it was Old Lady Wei’s birthday party. As a member of the Wei family, Wei Keli could make do with it even though he did something inappropriate.
But Wei Keli has nothing to do with the Qin family.
Unlike Tan Mo, at least he has a good relationship with Qin Muye.
If we really bring Yuan Keqing in, it will be a big joke.
Li Xiangrong stopped talking immediately.
Xu Mingzhen sighed deeply, "What kind of family am I dealing with? I have no choice but to agree to this to send the gods off."
Li Xiangrong sighed. It was really not easy for Xu Mingzhen either.
Anyway, Xu Mingzhen made it clear that as an aunt, she could not interfere in this matter.
If anything really happens, Li Xiangrong and his wife will discuss it with Yuan Keqing's parents.
The two returned to the living room.
Yuan Keqing was still sobbing and wiping away tears.
"Alright, it's not a big deal. It's just a young person's relationship issue. Let's not get involved any further," Xu Mingzhen said. "We'll be leaving first."
Wei Keli moved his mouth, but couldn't help but call out, "Mo Mo."
Tan Mo really didn't want to be bothered by Wei Keli anymore, so he turned around and asked, "Brother Keli, have you remembered how you got Keqing's room card?"
"..." Wei Keli hesitated, "I...I..."
"You go first, I will catch up with you later." Wei Zhiqian said to Tan Mo.
Tan Mo didn't expect that after they left the house, Tan Wenci actually said for the first time: "If it doesn't take long, let's wait for Zhiqian."
"Dad, why are you suddenly so nice to my uncle?" In the past, Tan Wenci would have only hated himself for walking too slowly.
They wished they could lock the door and lock Wei Zhiqian out before he could catch up with them.
"This time, thanks to Zhiqian, you were not tricked." Xu Mingzhen said softly with a smile in her voice, "Our family is very grateful to him."
However, just waiting for Wei Zhiqian for a little while could make Tan Mo so surprised.
How bad was their attitude towards Wei Zhiqian in the past?
Fortunately, Wei Zhiqian didn't care and was still very nice to Tan Mo.
Tan Mo's eyes flashed, and he also heard it from Xu Mingzhen's words.
This time Xu Mingzhen caught Wei Keli and Yuan Keqing red-handed, probably because Wei Zhiqian had agreed with her.
But it’s not convenient to ask in detail here.
I can only wait a while and ask again when I get back to my residence.
Inside the villa, Wei Zhiqian said directly to Wei Keli in front of Wei Zhijian and Li Xiangrong: "Didn't I warn you to stay away from Mo Mo and stop having any ideas about her?"
"Ever since my uncle said that, I haven't had any thoughts about Mo Mo anymore." Wei Keli pretended to be dumb. "Uncle, why did you suddenly say that?"
"Do you really think I don't know what you are planning with the Qin Murong sisters?" As saying this might expose Yuan Keqing, Wei Zhiqian didn't care.
I didn't intend to help Yuan Keqing in the first place.
Yuan Keqing still wants to step on Tan Mo to get to the top?
Let her dream.
It was indeed Yuan Keqing’s ability that ultimately enabled her to succeed.
But even if she succeeds, Wei Zhiqian can't let her succeed so easily.
Yuan Keqing suddenly became nervous.
