"Aunt Zheng, if you say that, you are really wronging me." Lin Xiaoxiao blinked, looking very innocent.
Zheng Ruyue was about to say something else when Father Xiao scolded her, "That's enough."
He said sternly, "How can an elder be shouting at a younger person like that?"
Lin Xiaoxiao is his future daughter-in-law, so it goes without saying who he will side with.
"I……"
Zheng Ruyue opened her mouth to explain, but Zheng Rumeng quickly interrupted her, "Sister, you're not really talking about this because of the conflict with Xiaoxiao, are you?"
"Rumeng, others don't know me, but don't you?" Zheng Ruyue looked aggrieved. "I really did it for the Xiao family."
At this time, she could only insist that she had no selfish motives.
"You are my sister, so I naturally know what kind of person you are. Xiaoxiao may have some misunderstandings about you."
After Zheng Rumeng finished speaking, she glanced at Father Xiao quietly and said, "Brother Xiao, my sister is really not that cunning. She is a straightforward person."
Father Xiao's face was not very good. He said, "Regardless of whether she has selfish motives or not, it is wrong for her to spread the news without clarifying the matter. I have to apologize to Xiaoxiao."
"I'm your elder, and you want me to apologize to her?" Zheng Ruyue's face was so ugly that it was beyond words. Her eyes looked like she wanted to gouge Lin Xiaoxiao to death.
"You know you are the elder, but why don't you have more etiquette than a younger generation when you are wrong?" Father Xiao said sternly.
Zheng Ruyue was stumped by Xiao's father's words.
Seeing Xiao's father's anger rising, Zheng Ru quickly tried to persuade him, "Sister, this is indeed your fault. Why don't you apologize to Xiaoxiao?"
While speaking, she kept winking at Zheng Ruyue.
If the relationship becomes too strained, it will not be good for Zheng Ruyue. After all, Xiao's father never goes to the Zheng family, but Zheng Ruyue has to come to the Xiao family.
Zheng Ruyue certainly understood this logic, but if she was asked to apologize to Lin Xiaoxiao in front of so many people, where would she save face in the future?
Zheng Ruyue's hesitation made Xiao's father even angrier, and his eyes were as loud as copper bells.
Zheng Ruyue was a little scared. She gritted her teeth and was about to speak when she heard Lin Xiaoxiao say, "Uncle Xiao, just explain this matter clearly. There's no need to apologize."
Zheng Ruyue: “…”
Lin Xiaoxiao, why didn't she say this earlier or later, but she said it at this time? Isn't this a deliberate slap in her face?
Zheng Ruyue's face became even uglier.
Father Xiao's expression softened a bit. He nodded and said, "Xiaoxiao, you are more sensible."
Zheng Rumeng glanced at Zheng Ruyue with some blame. If Zheng Ruyue had apologized just now, it would mean that Lin Xiaoxiao was not giving face to her elders and was aggressive. However, Zheng Ruyue hesitated, letting Lin Xiaoxiao act like a good boy again.
Although she was angry, she had no choice but to side with her sister as things had come to this point.
She glanced at Zheng Ruyue and said, "Sister, why don't you go back first? Let's chat as a family."
Zheng Ruyue was too embarrassed to stay at this moment. After hearing what Zheng Rumeng said, she did not hesitate. She stood up and left without even saying goodbye.
As soon as she left the house, Father Xiao said, "Your sister is a bit confused. In the future, ask her to come less often and listen to her gossip."
Father Xiao doesn't want Zheng Rumeng to be like Zheng Ruyue.
"Um."
Zheng Rumeng nodded.
The atmosphere was a little stagnant for a moment.
