Everyone had nothing to do that day, even the children were on holiday. Near noon, Xia Feng sat in the living room and talked to his sister-in-law, who was pruning branches while chatting.
"Now Xiaorou is becoming more and more beautiful, and she is also much more cheerful."
"That's because my sister-in-law usually dresses her up more often. She brings her a little skirt when she sees it." Xia Feng also said.
"We have only one daughter in our family. I am jealous of her. Besides, our Xiaorou is so well-behaved. When she calls me aunt sweetly, I really want to climb to the sky and pick the stars for her." Leqin was happy from the inside out when she talked about Xiaorou.
Song Pan, who came down from the second floor, couldn't help but speak as soon as he glanced at the peonies in the vase.
"Sister-in-law, you should learn the art of flower arrangement. These peonies are too tacky. Our family is not an ordinary family. If you use these red and green things, how will people see our Lu family?
No wonder your flower shop closed down. With your taste, even a blind customer wouldn't appreciate it."
Looking at Song Pan who started to speak non-stop, Le Qin paused and then continued with his work.
"My second sister-in-law is right. I have to learn more from you in the future."
Song Pan didn't stop. He picked up the teapot in front of Xia Feng and poured himself a glass of water. He took a sip and spit it into the trash can next to him.
Fortunately, Xia Feng quickly turned sideways, otherwise his clothes would have been splashed with the water.
Song Pan slammed the cup onto the table, making a crisp sound. Then he crossed his arms over his chest, glared at the people around him, and spoke in a shrill voice.
"What's going on? Are the servants in this house dead? They didn't even know to change the water when it got cold. And I want black tea, who wants to drink this crappy boiled water? They don't even know this.
The family pays you to be lazy here, and I think you don't want to do this anymore. If you don't want to do this anymore, get out of here."
The young maid in the kitchen heard the noise and hurried out, first bending down to apologize.
"I'm sorry, Second Madam. I was busy and forgot. I'll go get another one."
Song Pan stood beside the table without moving, staring at her. The maid looked at the scene in front of her somewhat helplessly.
"I just wanted to drink warm water, so I asked Xiao He to bring it over. I didn't pay attention and it cooled down. Xiao He, go make a new pot of Jin Jun Mei. Remember, this is the second wife's favorite tea."
It was Leqin who spoke up to ease the tense situation.
Song Pan turned his head and looked at Le Qin. The maid immediately went to the kitchen to make tea.
"Sister-in-law is so kind-hearted that she even protects the servants and knows my preferences. But isn't it tiring to wear a mask?" Song Pan's words were full of sarcasm.
The smile on Leqin's face remained unchanged. "I'm just telling the truth. As for remembering my sister-in-law's preferences, that's normal. After all, she often talks about them at home."
“People say that a person may appear to be a Buddha but may be a devil. The kinder they appear, the less likely they are to behave in private. Otherwise, why would they do good things all day? Perhaps they are atonement for their sins.
I have a straightforward personality and I can't stand hypocritical people, little sister, don't you think so? "
"No." Xia Feng refused directly. We shouldn't provoke people in person. I'm not a fool. I can tell who is nice to me.
Song Pan was stunned. She didn't expect Xia Feng to deny her words so directly without any pause.
"Some people are just kindhearted, with a kind face and a kind heart, while others appear fierce but still create a persona of being outspoken and straightforward."
Xia Feng's words left Song Pan speechless, because she just wanted to say that she was not hypocritical like someone else and said what she thought. However, Xia Feng's direct implication left her speechless.
Song Pan could only snort coldly, "My little sister has really been led astray."
"But little sister, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but your brother-in-law has been dead for so long. If you continue to be so slovenly all day long, which man would dare to want you?"
Xia Feng glanced at his clothes. Although they were plain, they were definitely not sloppy.
Seeing that Xia Feng didn't say anything, thinking about what Xia Feng had just said to refute her, and thinking about a daughter who had not been around for many years, who was so vulgar, but was so cherished by the old man and the old lady, and even overshadowed her two precious sons, her anger grew bigger and bigger.
Song Pan's voice gradually became louder and louder.
"And those junky plots of land you bought? What's the point of spending your own money on those junks? You can't even sell your house, and your land is just rotting in your hands, a money-losing commodity.
Now that the family is spending money, not only are you unable to help, but you are actually a hindrance. If you hadn't spent that money in the first place, how could the family be in this state?
Your parents coax you and don't tell you anything, but you don't even realize how grown up you are. You still have the nerve to joke around here without any burden."
"And now you're eating and drinking for free at your parents' house with your children. You really plan to live there forever. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by outsiders?
Our Lu family is a wealthy family after all, and because of this, people have laughed at us. Even if your parents don't say anything, don't you feel guilty?"
"If I were you, I would have been unable to stay in this house a long time ago."
Song Pan's eyes became more and more crazy, and his words became more and more careless, daring to say anything.
Even Le Qin, who was standing by, was frightened and stopped moving, wondering if his sister-in-law knew what she was saying.
Listening to the words of the second sister-in-law, Xia Feng's eyes gradually lost their warmth and he looked at Song Pan coldly.
"If you have anything else to say, just say it, and let me think about how to change it." There was no fluctuation in Xia Feng's voice.
"As expected, those who are raised in the village will never change their habit of eating shit.
