MTL - The Stepmother is Unkind-Chapter 57
In this world, there are truly peerless appearances...
Before Yin Mingyu saw it with his own eyes, he absolutely couldn't believe that someone was so beautiful that the whole house was lit up and dazzling.
The unfamiliar mother and daughter in the house sat one after the other, the older one moved forward, the one with fresh faces was closer to Yin Mingyu.
It is Mrs. Xie's aunt and Bai's cousin Bai Zhixu.
Their facial features are very similar, they are all a hibiscus face, willow leaf eyebrows, amorous eyes half-curved, eye waves flow, extremely moving.
But unlike these normal facial features, Mrs. Gu is more plump and clearly older, but because of her dark pupils, thick eyelashes, and pale eyes, she looks innocent and brilliant.
On the other hand, the young Bai family cousin, her skin is as creamy, her cheeks and the end of her eyes are glowing with young and fresh peach blossoms. She should have been at a worry-free age, but her eyes are clearer.
The most important thing is that the thick brocade jacket is not bloated, it can't cover her slender and slender waist.
I don't know if it's because of the hard work, but their faces are pale and tired, which is even more pitiful. These two women are all looking at her...
Yin Mingyu couldn't help breathing lightly, and there was an urge to tidy up his clothes again, and he was worried that any movement would disturb them.
Even the thoughts in my mind are flying, and I am willing to do everything for Bo and the others...
…
The flying thoughts stopped abruptly, and she still didn't want to.
Yin Mingyu instantly recovered from the daze, and his expression returned to normal. He smiled and said, "This is my aunt and cousin. I never thought that such a romantic person would teach me to lose my mind."
She said, saluting casually, dignified and not rude.
At this time, Xie Ce next to Mrs. Xie shouted excitedly, "Mother!"
The tone is close and natural.
Not only Yin Mingyu was observing the mother and daughter of the Bai family just now, but they were also observing Yin Mingyu. When they saw Xie Ce in such a state, they were all a little surprised.
The auntie received Yin Mingyu's gift, and she was waving her hand to ask the maid to bring the gift, but she was surprised and blurted out: "Hey, look at this close one, I can't tell that it's not her own, but she must be a nephew~"
Xie Ce was young, even if he knew that "mother" was "aunt", after getting along for a long time, it was inevitable that he would be a little unclear, and he could not tell the difference between his own and not.
When he got off the bed, he ran towards Yin Mingyu with his short legs. Hearing what his auntie said, he stopped in confusion and stood in the middle.
Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie immediately looked a little bad.
Bai Zhixu looked flustered, and hurriedly reminded in a low voice, "Mother!"
And Mrs. Xie has sternly rebuked: "Open mouth! The Xie family has raised you for many years, but it's getting worse!"
Bai Zhixu was flustered and quickly got up to plead guilty.
The auntie was more skilled than her, so she slid off the chair, knelt on the ground, and confessed to Mrs. Xie, "Mother, don't be angry, it's my fault."
She knelt too fast, and Bai Zhixu stood there, feeling a little dazed for a while.
This scene was much more interesting than the previously painted beauties, Yin Mingyu couldn't help laughing, and waved to Xie Ce who was standing there in a daze.
Xie Ce took another step forward, walked up to her, raised his head, "Mother..."
Jin'er was carrying an exquisite bamboo basket full of gadgets Yin Mingyu bought outside. She didn't comfort Xie Ce, and rummaged inside.
Which one she liked very much, Yin Mingyu chose for a moment, and finally took a bamboo woven pen holder, shoved it into Xie Ce's arms, and said, "My mother gave it to you, so you can practice calligraphy."
Xie Ce just kept staring at her movements, holding the pen holder, and then looking at a palm-sized bamboo sheep in the bamboo basket, his eyes fixed.
Yin Mingyu took a step to the left and blocked the bamboo basket.
Xie Ce looked up along her legs and looked at her eagerly.
Yin Mingyu looked away, pretending he couldn't see.
Madam Xie saw Yin Mingyu's attitude with a cold face, she almost lost her anger, but she couldn't wink her in front of outsiders, so she turned to the concubine again.
The auntie shook, and suddenly began to wipe her tears with pear blossoms and rain, "Mother, when I was in Yangzhou, I taught my daughter not to talk when she was outside, and her daughter always remembered that this is the time she returned to her parents' home, and she felt at ease, so she didn't control it. , please forgive your daughter~"
Bai Zhixu also hurriedly knelt down and blamed himself: "Grandmother, mother is just outspoken and has no malice. Zhixu will definitely urge mother in the future, so don't get angry."
Seeing that Xie Ce had forgotten about those, Mrs. Xie said softly, "Mother, don't you know the temperament of the eldest lady? Don't mind."
The auntie said quickly, "Yes, yes, what the eldest sister-in-law said is, you must not have the same knowledge as your daughter."
Mrs. Xie glared at her and turned to Bai Zhixu, she calmed down a little, but she was still not very enthusiastic, "The yard has been tidy up for you, let's go back and fix it first, come to the main yard for dinner, and then see your uncle and cousin."
Bai Zhixu respectfully agreed, and after saluting, he helped his mother get up and exited.
When they were gone, Madam Xie immediately turned her head towards Yin Mingyu, "Look at what you're stingy, it's just a piece of bamboo weaving, and it's worth comparing you with a child in front of outsiders."
Yin Mingyu has reason and evidence, "It was bought by my grandson-in-law, and my grandson-in-law can naturally decide whether to give it away or not."
The principle is naturally this principle, but Mrs. Xie is just out of breath.
She took a deep breath and calmed down for a moment, and said in a bad mood, "I'll exchange something with you, or you can tell me where to buy it, and I'll teach someone to buy it."
Yin Mingyu was able to bend and stretch, and instantly changed his position, and asked with a smile: "Grandmother, what do you want in exchange for your grandson-in-law?"
Mrs. Xie: "..."
Mrs. Xie laughed softly and said to her grandson, "Go get it, didn't you hear your mother promise to give it to you?"
Xie Ce then happily ran to Jin'er and picked up the bamboo woven sheep. He didn't let go of the pen holder, and held them all in his arms.
Mrs. Xie taught people to fetch an Dongzhu, which was an inch in diameter.
"Thank you grandmother." Yin Mingyu took it with a smile and put it in his sleeve.
Later, she was a little curious: "I didn't think so, aunt has such a temper..."
Speaking of her, Mrs. Xie was not unhappy. Mrs. Xie glanced at Mrs. Yin and said to Yin Mingyu: "When she was not married, it was not like this..."
After Mrs. Xie finished speaking, she felt that it was not very serious, and changed her words: "At least it is not so serious."
Yin Mingyu was even more curious and looked at Madam Xie eagerly, wanting her to say more.
Mrs. Xie didn't like listening to it, so she told Xie Ce to go back to the conservatory to take a nap, leaving Mrs. Xie and Yin Mingyu to talk about old things.
It turned out that in Yangzhou, the only aunt of the Xie family was a famous vase beauty. Her mother was honest and she went early. When she grew up under Mrs. Xie's eyelids, she often refused to please Mrs. Xie because of her temperament. Joy, I often make mistakes because of my tongue, but it is still restrained.
However, she is outstanding in appearance and has many princes who adore her. Mrs. Xie made the decision and chose Bai.
And when she got married, her auntie's temperament was naturally not liked by her mother-in-law. Whenever she angered her mother-in-law, she would go back to her mother's house to cry.
Madam Xie was impatient, so she reprimanded her: "Why do you always go back to your mother's house to cry, go to your husband and cry."
The aunt really went.
But the man was very useful, the aunt's mother-in-law went to an emergency again, and the aunt's wife went out with her husband, so she was completely free from restraint.
Yin Mingyu: "…"
She imagined the young auntie looking like a pear blossom with rain like just now, inexplicably understanding the deceased uncle.
Luckily, I was born in the Xie family. If it was an ordinary family, I wouldn't be able to protect it...
"Before Lord Bai passed away, the Bai clan went through the door because their husband and wife only had one daughter. The Xie clan could not allow others to bully the Xie clan's daughter, so the Xie clan in Yangzhou came forward on behalf of the old lady and your father to settle the matter. ."
Mrs. Xie said: "The letter that came back at that time was that Bai Zhixu was already helping the housekeeper at a young age."
Yin Mingyu glanced at Madam Xie's expression, and knew that it was more than just helping.
My aunt had a Xie family when she was young, she had a husband after she got married, and she had a daughter after her husband left. It's weird...heartless.
On the other hand, the mother and daughter returned to the yard where her aunt lived. Bai Zhixu didn't bother to look at it any more, and dragged her mother into the house.
"Mother, we came back to rely on our grandmother's family. Can't you keep your mouth shut? If we anger your grandmother and aunt, how can we deal with it?"
The auntie was aggrieved, "I really relaxed for a while, not on purpose..."
Seeing her like that, Bai Zhixu was very helpless, so he softened his tone and persuaded: "Mother, we didn't agree to please my grandmother. When your daughter gets married, you will stay at Xie's house and someone will take care of you when you come. Second, to prevent someone from deceiving you."
The auntie was not very worried, "The old lady and your aunt are both polite people, and they won't beat and scold me even if they're angry. When you get married, even if I don't go away, they won't chase me away. ."
Bai Zhixu: "...that can't be mad at others, we're not just grievances..."
Also, does it really not drive people away? Why does she feel overwhelmed.
Bai Zhixu said incompetently, "If you can say something nice, say something nice, or don't say it, and the rest is up to your daughter."
The auntie agreed without hesitation, and in a blink of an eye, she saw the gift box on the table, "Oh," and said, "I forgot to give the gift to my niece!"
Bai Zhixu said, "Let's bring it over for dinner."
She reminded her several times. When she went to arrange the servants to place things, she still couldn't rest assured about her mother. She only hoped that the grandfather's family would be as good as her mother said.
At dinner, Xie family members were few, so they ate without dividing the table.
Bai Zhixu respectfully greeted his uncle and cousin, and the father and son responded lightly.
Xie Qin and Bai's cousin were in the same room. In comparison, Yin Mingyu found that Xie Qin's handsome face and bearing were not inferior to Bai Zhixu.
She also knew that he was good-looking before, but she knew it for a long time, and secondly, the other party used to be the husband of the eldest lady. At first glance, she was a little surprised and didn't think much about it. Maybe it was blinded by this.
but…
Whether it's Xie Qin or Bai Zhixu, there is no surprise in their eyes when they look at each other, and the rest of the Xie family can't be ordinary anymore, but she is lustful and extraordinarily vulgar...
"Cousin-in-law, this is a gift that my mother prepared for you. I forgot to give it to my cousin earlier, and I asked my cousin to accept it." Bai Zhixu came to Yin Mingyu, his tone was not as restrained as he was in front of his uncle and cousin, and he said: With some smiles.
Yin Mingyu looked at Bai Zhixu's face at close range, and a small section of his wrist, and said to himself: Vulgarity is vulgar, she is vulgar and she is happy.
Therefore, Yin Mingyu also smiled and replied softly: "Auntie is polite, I also prepared a gift for my cousin."
They exchanged greetings with each other, and when dinner time arrived, Yin Mingyu took Bai Zhixu and sat down.
There was a beautiful woman sitting next to her, and she couldn't help but want to take a few more glances, but she couldn't be rude, so Yin Mingyu ordered her maid to pour tea and vegetables for Bai Zhixu, looked at her openly, and talked to her.
Xie Qin sat on the other side of Yin Mingyu. Seeing that she was soft-spoken to Bai's cousin, but never gave him a look, he personally brought a cup of tea, put it by her hand, and said lightly, "Have a cup of tea."
Yin Mingyu picked it up, and as soon as it was brought to his mouth, a string of crisp laughter sounded.
When everyone looked over, they saw my aunt looking at Xie Qin and Yin Mingyu ambiguous, and jokingly said: "Hey~ Dalang also pours tea for his niece in person, the little husband and wife have a really good relationship~"
The Xie family, and even the head of the Xie family, looked at Xie Qin and Yin Mingyu.
Xie Qin's expression became colder and colder, concealing a trace of embarrassment in his heart.
Bai Zhixu was embarrassed for his mother and wanted to say something to ease, but couldn't find anything for a while.
At this time, Yin Mingyu put down the teacup, took the spoon with his own hands, filled a bowl of soup, and took the initiative to put it in front of Xie Qin, and said warmly, "Langjun, drink the soup."
Xie Qin's coldness dissipated in an instant, and with a "um" sound, he picked up the spoon to drink the soup.
Everyone in the Xie family looked away and started eating again.
There was only one little guy, watching Yin Mingyu serving soup to his father, holding the bowl in both hands, and begging: "Mother, soup..."
Xie Qin frowned, "How can you support your elders as a son of man? What about your filial piety?"
Xie Ce didn't want to be an ambassador, but he wouldn't and wouldn't dare to argue, so he retreated silently, hiding half of his face behind the bowl, leaving only two eyes looking at his father pitifully.
Mrs. Xie felt distressed, but it was inconvenient to say anything, so she could only watch.
Even my aunt and Bai Zhixu were intimidated by Xie Qin's strictness and did not dare to let out the air.
The atmosphere froze again, Yin Mingyu was not afraid of affecting his appetite, but since he has cleared the siege, he said with a smile, "It doesn't matter, mother will give you a bowl."
After speaking, she got up and poured the soup, and she not only filled it for Xie Ce, but also filled a bowl for Mrs. Xie, the head of the family and Mrs. Xie, and invited them to "drink soup" in a soft voice.
But apart from Xie Ce and the family head Xie, Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie looked at the soup in front of them, looking a little weird and uncomfortable.
And Xie Qin drank the soup that was not "the only one", but his face became cold again.
After Yin Mingyu sat down again, he put his original teacup into Xie Qin's hand.
The auntie saw it again, and she covered her lips and smiled smartly and said, "The little husband and wife have such a good relationship, maybe it won't be long before there will be a good news~"
Bai Zhixu closed his eyes immediately.
She owes so much...
Unable to stop eating a meal, Mrs. Xie couldn't bear it any longer, and reprimanded: "Shut up."
The aunt realized that she said something wrong, but she consciously said good things, and she didn't understand why Madam Xie was angry.
Yin Mingyu's eyes moved, just taking this opportunity to put it on the bright side, he kicked Xie Qin's foot under the table, and then smiled: "Lang Jun is busy with official business, and there are policies in the house, so don't be in a hurry, just follow suit. Of course it is.”
Xie Qin glanced at Yin Mingyu and said nothing.
Yin Mingyu poked his leg under the table.
Xie Qin grabbed her wrist, raised his eyes and said lightly, "My second mother and I have our own plans."
Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie hesitated, but didn't say anything.
But the head of the Xie family was satisfied with Yin Mingyu's daughter-in-law.
