Chapter 60: A Big Family and a Big Business



The main thing was the attitude of the third uncle and aunt, which was honestly impeccable. Li Xiujun thought carefully for a while and decided to go with them to the Li family's house.

I hadn't been there for half an hour when I heard that my youngest niece had returned and was hosting a banquet.

Li Shuhua was instantly embarrassed and asked carefully, "We just discovered your video by accident and haven't had time to tell them yet. If you're not happy, then don't go."

Li Xiujun was not angry and just treated it as a free meal.

As soon as I entered the door, I ignored the grand welcome and sat down directly.

Mrs. Li had already been informed of her identity, but she was only irritated by her uneducated appearance. She tried to hold back her anger, "Is this what your parents taught you? Don't you know how to greet your elders when you see them?"

It’s a good thing we didn’t live together since childhood, otherwise she would have died young.

"Grandma, my sister has come here with great difficulty. Even if it's for me, please don't be picky." Li Qing, who is said to have studied at Peking University for several years, came out with a smile on her face.

"Today is a good day, so I won't hold it against you. If it happens again, I won't let you go, even if someone helps me!"

Everyone exchanged glances intentionally or unintentionally.

As a granddaughter, Chu Qing is gentle and lovely, and her manners and speech all demonstrate the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.

The other one is not satisfactory in every way.

But the instigator didn't care at all. Li Xiujun sat upright and looked at the dishes on the table carefully.

Her favorite hot and sour potato shreds were crystal clear, and the aroma of the braised pork from the inside out was so drool-worthy.

Obviously, every dish exudes an irresistible temptation, but these people in front of me are reluctant to pick up their chopsticks.

Seeing her like this, Li Qing couldn't help but laugh in her heart.

I originally thought that this sister had just returned and might take away the love that originally belonged to me.

Now it seems that I have to depend on others for food.

But his face showed pity: "Sister seems to be hungry, why don't we eat first."

If Li Xiujun knew that her principle of not taking food without the elders' help was misinterpreted like this, she would probably smash her head with the bowl.

Old Mrs. Li's contempt grew even stronger.

When Li Qing was serving soup to everyone, she discovered that there was a stranger at the table.

"Who is this sister?" His eyes darkened slightly. "Grandma is really kind. In order to help me make the dinner party more lively, she even invited other children to come."

Wu Fen choked for no reason.

After all, it was her child, born after ten months of pregnancy. Li Qing's words were like scolding her as well. She immediately retorted: "Everyone says Qing'er is a top student at Peking University, so her perspective must be different. Now it seems..."

That's it.

Although these words were not spoken out loud, everyone present knew what was behind them.

"I was busy preparing for the postgraduate entrance exams and lived in school for too long, so I didn't realize there was a new sister at home." Li Qing knew who the child belonged to and could only smile awkwardly.

It has to be said that the larger the family's wealth, the more intrigue there is.

Li Xiujun ate while listening to them secretly teasing each other, and she thought it was quite enjoyable.

I was eating happily when suddenly my sleeve was tugged. I turned around and lowered my body obediently.

"New sister, this sister is so mean!"

I couldn't help but smile: "Why do you think so?"

Li Mian put her hands on her hips, and there seemed to be a ball of anger burning in her small eyes.

"She must have poor eyesight. Mianmian is so cute and beautiful, but she's said to be someone else's child! It's not that other people's children are bad, but she can't even recognize her own family."

Finding it interesting, Li Xiujun asked curiously, "Why do you call me New Sister?"

"My mom said that my sister was found by my third uncle and aunt, so she's the new sister, right? So, I'll call you the new sister."

But her new sister is so beautiful, more beautiful than any other sister in the family.

Such innocent words made Li Xiujun laugh.

Li Mian still felt unsatisfied after she finished speaking, and continued, "I'm going to show this sister how powerful she is later."

Knowing that what she said just now was a mistake, Li Qing poured the soup and handed it over, then restored her kind smile.

"Mianmian, right? I just said something out of turn, and I want to apologize to you." She turned around and seemed to remember something, tapping her head: "Look at me, I didn't even bring out a gift. Mianmian, I'll take you shopping later, and you can take whatever you like."

There were only four girls in the family now. Although this extra sister didn't seem to make much of a difference, it was better to have one more friend than one more enemy.

Li Xiujun chewed slowly, noticing the calculation in the other person's eyes and frowned.

Li Mian held the spoon and said aggrievedly, "Sister Ying taught me that no reward should be given without merit. If I must say, is Big Sister giving Mian Mian an apology gift or a meeting gift?"

"Mianmian thought Big Sister was giving them all, but it turns out she only gave one. If it was Sister Ying, she would definitely give them all. Big Sister is so stingy."

The last sentence was spoken in a lower volume, but it still reached Li Qing's ears clearly.

"Sister Ying" is called on the left and "Sister Ying" is called on the right.

Why compare yourself with that annoying Li Ying when there are so many people to compare yourself with?

Grit your teeth hard.

How dare she! How dare she!

Li Qing knew how to provoke others. She took a deep breath and looked at Wu Fen: "I really envy the relationship between Mianmian and Third Sister. It seems Second Aunt has taught them a lot."

After another pause of choking, Wu Fen smiled apologetically.

What could she say? Could it be that she hated Li Qing the most, because she had gotten into Peking University and she kept using this as an excuse to look down on others, which really made her unhappy.

So every day, whether there was something to do or not, he would whisper bad things about each other in Mianmian's ear.

On the contrary, Li Ying was extremely respectful, humble and polite. Any normal person would know which one they should spend more time with.

"Qing'er is busy at school and can't come home many times throughout the year. She didn't even know she had a new sister. It's also thanks to Ying'er that she's kind enough to take care of Mianmian when she's free. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had a chance to breathe."

Wu Fen is worthy of being someone who often deals with people outside and speaks very smoothly.

Old Madam Li snorted coldly and called out to everyone, "Alright, alright, let's eat quickly. Qing'er, come here. This is the soup I specially asked them to make. Drink it quickly. It won't taste good if it gets cold."

The way of speaking is somewhat similar to what Mr. Gu used back then.

Li Xiujun glanced at him indifferently and continued to eat with her head down.

"Thank you, grandma. You love Qing'er the most. I've been missing this taste since I was in school. You can't even replicate it a thousandth of it anywhere else. It's so delicious."

As if on purpose, Li Qing raised her voice very high, like a rooster that had won a fight.

Li Xiujun almost couldn't hold back her laughter when she thought of the description that suddenly popped up in her mind. Fortunately, the bowl was big enough to hide her expression.
