Ye Qin walked in without looking around, and went straight to the two elders of the Wu family. He looked respectful and greeted them in a dignified tone.
Old Master Wu nodded without saying much to Ye Qin.
Old Mrs. Wu looked at her intently and was surprised to find that the girl seemed different from when they first met.
She looked the same as before, but her eyes were calm and composed. She didn't even notice the many rare items in the hall. She stood there with a natural aura.
Of the people in the living room, Ye Qin only greeted the two elders of the Wu family. She didn't even look at the others, including Wei Chengzhi.
Ye Qin's attitude made Wei Chengzhi feel a little embarrassed, while Wu Mei's eyes were dim and she sat there in silence, as if Ye Qin's attitude was a direct fulfillment of Wang Meisha's previous words.
Wu Zhen's face darkened immediately, and he angrily scolded Ye Qin, "You are so rude, girl. Besides my parents, there are so many of your relatives and elders in this living room?"
No wonder my second sister felt so aggrieved. It turned out that she was angry at this daughter-in-law who didn’t know the rules.
Ye Qin simply glanced at Wu Zhen and continued to stand there in silence. In her eyes, the Wu family elders were the parents of Xiao Chenchen's late mother, and she should greet them. The others were nothing to her, and she had no interest in wasting her time and feelings on them.
Ye Qin's disregard made Wu Zhen's face even uglier. "Don't you have any manners? How could the Wei family marry a daughter-in-law like you? It's not a good match! It's ridiculous!"
Wu Zhen's words made Wei Chengzhi's face change. Marrying Ye Qin was a ridiculous act of superstition on the part of Mr. Wei, and everyone knew it.
Knowing is one thing, but saying it out loud is another.
Wu Mei was happy to see Wu Zhen helping her teach Ye Qin a lesson, but seeing that Wei Chengzhi's face had changed because of Wu Zhen's words, she quickly stood up and acted like a good person, "Okay, third brother, stop talking. Ah Qin is just shy. She hasn't met so many people before and doesn't know how to address them. As an elder, don't argue with her."
As Wu Mei spoke, she winked at Wu Zhen. Only then did Wu Zhen notice Wei Chengzhi's expression. He glared at Ye Qin angrily and said no more.
However, in the eyes of others, this scene still seemed like Ye Qin didn't know the rules, and Wu Mei, the mistress, was accommodating her in every way.
The servant came over to announce that dinner could begin. Old Madam Wu stood up with the help of Wu Mei, took two steps, and looked back at Ye Qin, "You come with me and take care of everyone's meal."
Ye Qin raised her eyebrows. This was clearly stated. It was not about eating together, but about taking care of everyone's meals. This meant that she was being treated as a servant.
She may not give face to other people, but she still has to give face to Old Lady Wu, because she is Xiao Chenchen's biological grandmother.
The meal was held in the banquet hall, and since all the guests were friends and relatives of the Wei family, four large round tables were sufficient. Some of them were not attending the tomb-sweeping ceremony and came directly to the Wei family for dinner.
Each table was attended to by a dedicated servant, and the main table where Old Madam Wu sat was attended to by Ye Qin and another servant.
Coincidentally, the person who was taking care of the main table with her was Xiao He.
At this moment, Xiao He was serving soup to everyone present. When he saw Ye Qin coming over, the soup bowl in his hand shook, and the spoon touched the wall of the bowl, making a clanging sound.
