Chapter 126 Open Negotiations
Chapter 126 Open Negotiations
In the restaurant, the tableware had already been set on a large dining table, but no one else had arrived yet.
Mi Yao asked Xun to sit in the position of the mistress of the house. She sat next to Xun, and then came Milan's big shot Mi You.
Soon, footsteps were heard and Chu Qianqian came in, supported by a maid. Behind her were Li Xueruo and Li Xuemei, Mi Yan, thirteen, Mi Ling, eleven, Mi Jun, nine, and Mi Qian, seven.
Mi Yao took a look and thought this woman was really fertile. However, Mi Yao admired Chu Qianqian very much. Even after giving birth to so many children, her figure did not change much. Her appearance was also excellent, with a mature charm and a hint of enchantment. Mi Jianshu was a fifth-rank official, but there was no concubine in the mansion for all these years. It seemed that Chu Qianqian was really good at controlling her husband.
Chu Qianqian entered the restaurant and saw where Xun was sitting, her face immediately turned grim.
"I'm afraid sister doesn't know where she should sit!" Chu Qianqian said with a slap in the face.
"Mom, don't bother with a village woman. How can a village woman understand the order of hierarchy?" Li Xueruo rolled her eyes at Xun.
Xun clenched her fist, and Mi Yao gently patted her hand.
"Mom, if a dog bites you, can you chase the dog back?" Mi Yao said softly.
"Puchi" Mi You laughed unkindly.
"Bitch, who are you talking about?" Li Xueruo immediately became angry.
"Who are you calling a bitch?" Mi Yao turned around and looked at the woman with her hair full of pearls and jade.
"Bitch is talking about you!" Li Xueruo said immediately.
"Haha, you bitch, you make a point." Mi Yao laughed.
Xun also smiled, and her anger disappeared.
Milan and Daniu held hands tightly and smiled continuously. "Big sister, your fighting power is really great."
"Mom, look at that bitch, she actually bullied me like this?" Li Xueruo also knew that she was fooled by Mi Yao, and she pulled Chu Qianqian's arm and acted coquettishly.
Chu Qianqian gave her daughter a look that told her to stay calm.
At this time, Old Mrs. Mi came, followed by Mi Jianshu.
"What are you arguing about? You can't even have a meal in peace!" Old Mrs. Mi acted like the head of the family.
"Grandma, some people don't know their own identity. They are worthy of being from the countryside. They just don't have any rules." Li Xueruo said sarcastically. Li Xuemei quickly pushed her sister's arm. This old lady also came from the countryside. Isn't she just looking for excitement by saying this?
Sure enough, Mrs. Mi rolled her eyes at Li Xueruo, but didn't say anything.
Mi Jianshu looked at Mi Yao. This child was very handsome and had a stunning appearance. I heard that she had given birth to two children. And her figure, wow, I have to say, this eldest daughter's figure and appearance were definitely among the best in the capital. Even if she got married and had children, it would be possible for her to marry into the royal family. Even if she didn't, there were so many royal relatives, nobles, and princes in the capital that it would be possible for her. What a pity.
Mi Yao saw the greed, disappointment and a hint of satisfaction in Mi Jianshu's eyes, and she could almost guess what was going on in Mi Jianshu's mind.
Scumbag! Dog!
Mi Jianshu saw the contempt and indifference in Mi Yao's eyes, and quickly retracted his gaze, then looked at Milan and Mi You. Milan looked somewhat similar to himself, but her personality was timid. When he left home, she was only two years old and had no emotions. Seeing her personality again, Mi Jianshu looked at Mi You.
This girl looks like Xun, with good looks, but a bit stubborn, and is not easy to get along with. When she left home, she was only a month old, so there was basically no father-daughter relationship. She is not as good as the two sisters Xuerou and Xuemei, who at least lived together for thirteen years.
Looking at Xun again, he had not looked at her seriously since he took her back to Shizhong Mansion. Looking carefully, she had not changed much from the past. It seemed that time had not left any traces on Xun's face. If there was any change, it might be that he no longer had any feelings for her. After all, he hadn't seen her for thirteen or fourteen years.
"Then tell me, what are the differences between the rules in the city and in the countryside?" Mi Yao leaned back in her chair, looking at Li Xueruo who was a little crazy.
"My mother is the principal wife. Apart from my grandmother and father, the position of the head of the family must of course belong to my mother. You should sit there." Li Xueruo pointed opposite the main seat.
"Really? Then may I ask, Lord Mi, what is the status of my mother when she fell to the ground?" Mi Yao looked at Mi Jianshu, her lips slightly curled, her smile full of coldness.
Mi Jianshu looked at Mi Yao. Why did his daughter seem so cold and a little creepy?
"Hui Niang, Qianqian is the eldest daughter of a noble family. She has taken good care of me in the capital. I can have a seat in the court today, thanks to the help of Qianqian's father and brother. Moreover, in the past ten years in the capital, Qianqian has always appeared as the mistress of the Shizhong Mansion. Now Qianqian asks me to pick you and your mother up to enjoy the good life in the capital. Don't worry about this identity." Mi Jianshu looked at Mi Yao's cold eyes and knew that this girl was not someone who was easy to talk to, so he directed his breakthrough to the honest Xun.
"Why don't you care?" Xun raised her head and looked at Mi Jianshu.
I haven't seen him for thirteen or fourteen years. This man has grown older and more shameless.
"Hui Niang, Jun'er is my only son. I can't let him be a bastard. Now he is doing well in the academy. He will definitely achieve fame in the future. If he has the status of a bastard, it will have a great influence on him." Mi Jianshu thinks highly of Mi Jun. Besides the fact that Mi Jun is his only son, Mi Jun's academic performance is indeed good.
"Whether he is good or bad, what does it have to do with me?" Xun smiled.
"Hui Niang, you are a gentle and virtuous woman. How come you have become so unreasonable after not seeing you for a few years?" Mi Jianshu was unhappy.
When Chu Qianqian and her mother heard this, they were very happy. Since they had angered the master, they would now suffer the consequences.
"Haha, Lord Mi, we haven't seen each other for a few years, it's been fourteen years. You said I have changed. Indeed, after you left home, you disappeared and lost contact. Your mother kicked us out of the Mi family on the grounds that I was a jinx. At that time, Mi You was less than four months old. If I hadn't changed, we would have starved to death or frozen to death when we were kicked out of the house. Today, everyone is here, so we might as well make things clear." Xun's hand was held by Mi Yao, and she felt extremely at ease.
Mi Jianshu was stunned. Is this still the Xun Huiniang in his impression?
Chu Qianqian could tell that Xun was determined to fight to the death, so she didn't care about anything else for the time being. She sat down and asked the other children to sit down.
Old Mrs. Mi glared at Xun Huiniang and sat down as well.
"Hui Niang, I know I owe you and your daughter too much. Aren't I going to take you to Beijing to enjoy a good life?" Mi Jianshu said with his heart insincerely.
"Enjoying a life? It means living in a shabby yard, having two meals a day made of torn vegetable leaves, wearing the same clothes we wore before, and having no maids or servants to take care of us. Is this called enjoying a life?" Xun said all in one breath, as if she wanted to say out all the grievances she had suffered in the past few days.
Mi Jianshu glanced at Chu Qianqian.
"Master, I've been busy with my eldest brother's promotion these days and neglected the family." Chu Qianqian said indifferently.
