At this moment, Chu Xing rushed in from outside. He was instantly delighted when he saw Chu Heng. He hurriedly said, “Brother Heng, Landlord He is here personally. He brought many gifts.”
Hearing this, Chu Heng walked past Luo Qingxue and her mother as if there was no one else around. He pulled along Ye Muyu, called Madam Liu, and strode towards the courtyard door.
Ye Muyu did not have a good impression of this second aunt and cousin Qingxue. Seeing that her mother-in-law did not get along with them, she naturally chose to stand on Chu Heng and Madam Liu’s side. Without hesitation, she followed them.
Madam Liu was in a good mood. She looked at Luo Qingxue and her mother who were still looking at Chu Heng. She reminded them thoughtfully, “Second Sister-in-law, you should find a place to rest first. There are many guests today. Please forgive us for not taking care of you.”
At this moment, Chu Hongmei was in a bad mood. She pretended not to hear her and said to herself, “Ah Heng’s wife is too rude. There are so many guests at home, but she only follows Ah Heng. She’s really insensible.”
“Second Sister-in-law, it’s been so many years since we last met. Your ability to slander people has grown. This is Ah Heng’s house. Aren’t you afraid of being kicked out of the house for talking about his wife like that?”
“Third Sister-in-law, go do your work. I haven’t seen Second Sister for many years. I want to talk to her.”
Chu Xingjun had long noticed the movements of Chu Hongmei and the others. Although she was drinking tea, she could hear it clearly. Her face darkened. Her sister’s personality had not changed. She was not afraid of offending others.
Did Chu Hongmei think that everyone was hypocritical of those so-called rich families? Did she think that they liked to hear her say such nonsense?
When Madam Liu saw that it was Chu Xingjun, she felt relieved and nodded.
Obviously, she saw Chu Hongmei as trouble.
Chu Hongmei could tell and was a little angry. She sneered, “Third Sister-in-law, it turns out that not only is your daughter-in-law unable to do it, but now even you can’t tell right from wrong…”
“Second Sister!”
“Mother!”
Two voices sounded in succession.
Chu Hongmei’s words were blocked.
Chu Xingjun stood up and walked to Chu Hongmei’s side. She smiled kindly at Madam Liu. “Third Sister-in-law, you should go quickly. I see many big shots here, so you and Third Brother should go too.”
“Thank you, Big Sister-in-law.” Madam Liu no longer hesitated. She lifted her feet and turned around to leave. Her back view was steady and neither arrogant nor impatient. She did not look like a woman from the countryside at all.
Luo Qingxue was a bit surprised, thinking that her Cousin Heng’s family was not like what her mother had said, pure country bumpkins.
After Madam Liu left, Chu Hongmei stomped her feet angrily. She turned her head and glared at Chu Xingjun. “Big Sister, why are you stopping me? You even embarrassed me. It was my Third Sister-in-law who did not treat me well.”
“Are you saying that she shouldn’t be entertaining the distinguished guests and entertain you instead? Do you think that other than the Luo family, there are no other wealthy families in the world?”
“Second Sister, all these years, you’ve looked down on your family and refused to talk to bumpkins like us. I won’t say anything, but in other people’s homes, you should watch your mouth. If others see you, the one who will lose face is you.”
“You’re the embarrassing one. As a wife in the Luo family, how am I embarrassing? It’s obvious that you’re the ones who haven’t improved,” Chu Hongmei said hatefully. She looked around the room with disgust.
The only thing she could look up to was Chu Heng’s high position.
Otherwise, she would not have come back.
How could Chu Xingjun not see through her thoughts? Her aged eyes were slightly lowered, carrying a strong aura. “In short, stay here. Think about your purpose for coming here.”
As expected, these words stunned Chu Hongmei.
