Chapter 175 New Year's Eve Dinner 3

Xia Mengning entered the room and saw Xie sitting on the top, talking to Xia Mengran, who was sitting below. The grandparents and grandchildren seemed to have talked about some interesting topic. Xie squinted and smiled, which was a happy scene.

Mother Chen walked in and came to Xie's front and said, "Old lady, the third lady is here."

Xie Shi then raised his head and took a look at Xia Mengning. Xia Mengning walked to her and said, "Ning'er has seen the old lady."

She didn't call her grandmother as usual. Xie obviously heard the meaning. Unexpectedly, Xia Mengning was not angry. Instead, she smiled and said to Xia Mengning, "Ning'er is coming. Get up."

Xia Mengning thanked her kindness and stood up. There was a girl beside her who arranged the embroidered stool. Xia Mengning sat down with a handkerchief in an elegant and decent movement.

Mother Chen brought the tea and smiled, "When the old lady talked to Miss Five, she was talking about Miss Three. After talking for a long time, the Third Lady finally came."

Xia Mengning smiled. Is this saying that she came late?

She didn't receive the tea. Xia Mengning looked at Chen's mother like this. As soon as Chen's mother was embarrassed, she put the tea bowl in front of Xia Mengning. Xia Mengning looked at it and said with a smile, "My mother still needs to take care of her body. I need to worry about all the big and small things in this house. Please forgive me if I'm late."

Although Xia Mengning said so, her phoenix eyes raised slightly, but she looked very disdainful. She reached out and picked up the tea and said nothing more.

When Xia Mengran heard the words, his hand holding the teacup couldn't help trembling. He remembered the appearance of the Wei family a few days ago. Looking at Xia Mengning's pride now, Xia Mengran couldn't help clenching the teacup and gritted his teeth fiercely.

Xie's pair of turbid old eyes looked at Xia Mengning sitting underneath. Xia Mengning was wearing a red gold thread embroidered begonia dress today. The petal embroidery method at the skirt used the most popular anti-needle embroidery at the skirt. The pattern jumped on the dress, lifelike and eye-catching.

Xie looked at it a few times and whispered, "Three girls, I heard that your father gave you the power of the housekeeper?"

Xia Mengning smiled and nodded and whispered, "Ning'er is not talented. It's just a help from the side. Dad said that he gave the power of the housekeeper to his mother. The mother still needs to take care of her body, so she let her daughter learn with her."

Xie Shi looked cold and said, "It's not easy to say that things in this house are not simple. You are still young. If you can't be busy, you can go with your fifth sister. Simply, you are the same age, and it's time to practice more."

With that, he looked at Xia Mengran's direction and said with some reproach, "It's New Year's Eve today. Why did you come out dressed like this? Isn't the examples in all the courtyards in the house complete?"

Xia Mengning heard the words and turned her head to look at Xia Mengran's dress. Xia Mengran was wearing a tube skirt made of flowing brocade, with an apricot coat on the outside. The embroidery on the dress was also a good Su embroidery. Xia Mengning looked at Xie and thought about it carefully, and then she knew the meaning of Xie's words.

Before Xia Mengning could speak, Xie turned to Xia Mengning and said, "Ning'er, how on earth did you allocate the examples of each garden? Why didn't your fifth sister even have a decent set of clothes?"

Xia Mengran obviously knew what Xie's meaning, and his eyes were immediately covered with a layer of water mist. Chu Chu looked at Xia Mengning and then Xie's family pitifully, and then lowered his head in panic.

That look is obviously aggrieved and dare not say it.

Xia Mengning smiled and said, "Why did the old lady say this? Ning'er has never deducted the fifth sister's case. Otherwise, just ask the fifth sister."

Xie's face was awe-in, and she was extremely unhappy. She fell out with Xia Chuanyuan, but how could Xia Chuanyuan be so confused? He actually handed over the power of the housekeeper to a daughter of a concubine. In this way, she was afraid that she would be laughed to death. The more she thought about it, the more angry she became. Otherwise, she would marry the daughter of a house. Sister, come to be the step-in-law room, or you will do this power for yourself first, but this Xia Chuanyuan is good...

Xie Shi thought that he was getting more and more uncomfortable. He felt that he was overwhelmed by a concubine, and the grudge that had existed in his heart became more restless.

Xie's mother and Ge's mother had a handkerchief, but that was also before Gu's mother was in the main room, Ge's mother later became an aunt. She was the mother-in-law. How could she be close to an aunt?

The relationship between myself and Ge's mother is there. Even if I don't have much contact, I can help protect Xia Mengning, but Xia Mengning is a master who loves to show off. How can she allow people who are more arrogant than herself in this house?

When Xie was still the mistress, she was framed by her aunt and almost didn't survive, so she hated concubines and concubines very much.

Thinking of this, Xie's face turned cold and he said, "Ning'er, how do you talk? Look at Ran'er's clothes and then look at yours. Isn't it because you deducted Ran'er's share?"

Xia Mengning caressed her eyebrows impatiently. These days are really not safe for a day. There are endless problems and difficulties every day. In this case, I don't have to make concessions in every way. Instead, I want them to understand their power, and they can avoid a lot of trouble in the future.

Thinking of this, Xia Mengning turned around and said with a serious look, "Five sister, although it is the first time for my sister to be in charge of family affairs, she knows the importance of it. The examples in every room are the same. If the sister has any objection, just tell her sister. The old lady is old. Why is her not so The sensible man came to complain in front of the old lady, not to mention the plain annoyance. Isn't it strange that people's hearts are blocked during the Spring Festival?

Xia Mengning's words are for Xia Mengran, but every sentence is aimed at Xie's family. She has to argue about these trivial things during the Spring Festival and compete with the younger generation for the benefit of the younger generation. There is no mind and temperament of the elders at all.

Why can't Xie hear it? When she heard the words, Xie's face immediately turned black. She looked at Xia Mengning and said, "It's not Ran'er's complaint, it's what I can see. The material on your body is this year's popular and brocade brocade, but what Ran'er's is a flowing satin that existed a few years ago. As a sister, just Is that what I'm in? Don't think that I'm old and my eyes are dazzled, and that I'm also confused. I can see clearly.

Xia Mengning covered her mouth and said, "The old lady said this to wrong Ning'er. Ning'er has never deducted the case in the room of her fifth sister."

When Xia Mengran heard this, he turned his eyes to look at the material on Xia Mengning's body. He saw that the red dress on Xia Mengning's body was elegant and decent, and the skirt embroidered with begonia flowers was fresh and beautiful. Looking at his body, although it was also a good satin, in front of Xia Mengning, it was After a long fall, Xia Mengran gritted her teeth. It turned out that Xia Mengning was so scheming that she wore the satin a few years ago, but she herself wore a more beautiful new satin. Xia Mengran couldn't help but feel angry in her heart. Looking at Xia Mengning's eyes became unkind.

Xie Shi snorted coldly, "The truth is in front of you. You still want to argue. Is it because of my serious illness that's how you are in charge of family affairs?"

Xia Mengran saw Xie's look and knew that she should go forward to add a fire now, so that Xia Mengning could not escape this punishment.

Thinking of this, Xia Mengran restrained the resentment and jealousy on her face, changed her aggrieved appearance and came forward, and whispered, "Grandma, my sister didn't mean it, after all..." With that, Xia Mengran timidly glanced at Xia Mengning and bit her lip and said, "My sister is now from Hirai's wife, and also She is the legitimate daughter, but she is just a humble concubine..."

With that, Xia Mengran seemed to have suffered a great grievance. She turned around, covered her face with a veil, and cried.

What else did Xie want to say? When he saw that the heavy door curtain was lifted up, Xia Chuanyuan, wearing a cyan Zhuzi round-neck robe, came in. What Xie wanted to say was blocked in his throat and he didn't say it.

Before Xia Mengran's tears were taken away, she was seen by Xia Chuanyuan. Today was originally New Year's Eve, and the most taboo thing was quarrels and tears. Xia Chuanyuan couldn't help frowning, walked to Xie and sat down and said, "What's the matter? What's the matter? What's wrong with you crying during the Spring Festival? Don't learn from that child's embryo. Son, it's specially to add obstacles to people.

These words were a little heavy. Xia Mengran hurriedly wiped away her tears and knelt down in panic. "My daughter knows what's wrong, my daughter knows what's wrong."

The little girl took the fragrant tea. Xia Chuanyuan took a sip and said, "Get up."

Xie looked at Xia Chuanyuan's appearance. She didn't even say hello to herself when she entered the door. She couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Looking at Xia Chuanyuan's merciless accusation on Xia Mengran, she was a little annoyed and said, "This is not a big deal, but I saw that the clothes she wore during the Spring Festival were not decent. After a few words from the three girls, it started to make trouble.

Xia Chuanyuan listened and looked at Xia Mengran, who bowed his head and said no. He also looked at Xia Mengning, who was leisurely tasting tea, and asked, "Ning'er, what's going on?"

When Xia Mengning heard Xia Chuanyuan ask, she put down the teacup and whispered, "Dad, Zuo is just a little thing. Today is the Spring Festival. Dad, don't worry too much."

Xia Chuanyuan nodded. Now that he has experienced so many things, he is very relieved about this third daughter. Hearing Xia Mengning say this, he doesn't ask much.

Seeing that Xia Chuanyuan showed a look of trust in Xia Mengning, Xie couldn't help but be angry, but she still took care of Xia Chuanyuan's presence, and it was not easy to get angry casually. However, just now, when she saw the dodge expression between Xia Mengning's words, she knew that this matter must have been Xia Mengning's fault, otherwise she would not have concealed it. , don't say more.

Thinking of this, Xie couldn't help but be slightly proud. She reached out and picked up the teacup beside her and took a sip of tea and said, "Third girl, it's not right to say that. Since your father asked you to be in charge, he trusted you. Now that you have done such a thing, how can you still want to muddle through?"
