Ye Yuan understands his daughter, Xiao Xi, who is so wonderful, so he won't force her or make her unhappy.
The older brothers also expressed their opinions.
"Xiaoxi, don't think so much. Big brother is big brother, and we are us. We will always love you the most, our little sister."
With her parents and brothers' support, Xiaoxi felt reassured.
No matter how much trouble Ye Xiaoya causes, her parents and brothers will always stand by Xiaoxi's side.
Next, we had dinner.
Ye Aotian coaxed Ye Xiaoya into having dinner together.
Ye Xiaoya naturally sat next to Ye Aotian, while Xiaoxi sat with her fifth brother on her left and her seventh brother on her right.
She remained largely silent throughout the meal, and in terms of dining etiquette, Xiaoxi treated it as if she were attending a banquet, with no clinking of cups or saucers.
She acted like an elegant little princess the whole time.
Xiao Xi deliberately chose to sit next to Seventh Brother, wanting to stay far away from Ye Xiaoya. If she couldn't afford to offend her, she could at least avoid her.
Ye Yuanliang, Wanyi, and their brothers chatted at the table. Whenever Guan Xiaoxi was asked a question, she would answer politely and then fall silent.
Sixth Brother wanted to laugh when he saw Xiaoxi putting on a dramatic act, and he kept glancing at Xiaoxi with a mischievous look in his eyes.
Xiaoxi remained calm and pretended not to see it.
Ye Yichen, who was standing next to her, glared at Sixth Brother. He thoughtfully served food to Xiaoxi, and Ye Xingxian also poured Xiaoxi her favorite drink.
Xiaoxi was very polite, saying, "Thank you, Seventh Brother, thank you, Fifth Brother."
Her dining etiquette is truly impeccable.
Seeing Xiaoxi's noble temperament from the inside out, Ye Xiaoya across from her was so jealous that she gritted her teeth.
Just then, the maid served a soup dish. Ye Aotian ladled a bowl for his daughter, Ye Xiaoya, who accidentally knocked it over.
"Oh, Daddy, I didn't mean to." Her little face flushed red, and she was about to cry again.
Ye Xiaoya felt embarrassed. She quickly observed the expressions of her grandparents and several uncles.
Even though Ye Yanche cursed inwardly that Ye Xiaoya was causing trouble again, he didn't give Ye Xiaoya a single glance the whole time, let alone his other brothers.
Ye Aotian gently comforted his daughter who had spilled the bowl.
"It's okay, Xiaoya, Dad knows you didn't mean to."
A maid quickly came up and helped Ye Xiaoya clean up the mess on the table.
During this time, Ye Aotian actually glanced at Xiaoxi, but Xiaoxi kept her eyes straight ahead, as if she were in deep meditation.
Xiaoxi felt Ye Aotian's scrutinizing gaze, but she remained calm and unperturbed, as if Ye Xiaoya's rudeness at the dinner table was someone else's child's business and had nothing to do with her.
As it turns out, Xiaoxi had already categorized Ye Xiaoya as someone unrelated to her.
Besides, she had some expectations for this older brother at the beginning, but later became disappointed, so she didn't care anymore.
Then Ye Xiaoya did it twice more, for example, she wanted to eat ribs and asked Ye Aotian to remove the bones for her, and she would look at Xiaoxi with a smug look from time to time.
Xiaoxi ignored it the whole time.
Then, whether the chef did it on purpose or not, a dish of beef meatballs was served on the table.
Ye Xiaoya reached for the beef meatball, but her chopsticks didn't hold it firmly, and the beef meatball bounced up and flew in an arc straight towards Xiaoxi.
