As soon as Xu Lanying said this, all the ladies present covered their mouths in surprise, looked at her in disbelief, and then turned to look at Chen Xi!

Chen Xi smiled and said, "It's true!"

The ladies exclaimed again!

what happened today?

First of all, Miss Xu surprised everyone by asking about such rumors, and Chen Xi's frank response also shocked everyone!

Miss Xu is so abnormal, but this Chen Jidong is even more tough!

At this time, Xu Lanying felt that the flesh on her cheeks was shaking!

She was so angry!

Chen Xi! How dare she!

How dare she admit it!

Why should she!

As for Chen Xi, he kept smiling and letting everyone look at him!

The last time Lin Changqing came back, he held hands with her and hugged her on the street in public. So many people saw it. How to explain her denial?

She felt that according to the degree of demon sealing of Miss Xu today, if she denied it one moment, she would ask her the next moment why she held hands and hugged in the street since she was not with Lin Changqing?

So she simply admitted it directly and blocked Miss Xu's words!

For a moment, no one spoke. It was quiet for half a minute before Xu Lanying spoke again.

"Dong Chen, don't you know General Lin's true identity?"

Chen Xi pretended to be confused and said: "True identity? Does General Lin have any true identity that I don't know but Miss Xu knows?"

This sentence made Xu Lanying look ugly again.

Because what Chen Xi said is, am I close to Lin Changqing or are you close to Lin Changqing? Can you still know things that I don’t even know?

Chen Xi did it on purpose!

This Miss Xu actually didn’t

If he embarrasses her because of his status, there is no need for her to give her face.

What about Miss Prefect?

To be honest, now that Lin Changqing is behind her, Chen Xi is really not afraid of this prefect lady.

The more confident she is, the less these ladies will dare to do anything to her.

On the contrary, the more "modest" she is at this time, these girls may dare to use their status as housekeepers to make things difficult for her!

Chen Xi will not give them this chance!

Although Xu Lanying was angry, she couldn't lose her momentum when she saw everyone else looking at them with bright eyes. She said calmly: "General Lin is not an ordinary citizen. He is the eldest son of Zhongyonghou Mansion in the capital, and he will be Zhongyonghou in the future!"

Chen Xi nodded: "That's right, I know!"

"Then you know, do you think you can still have a lifelong private life? Chen Dongjia, I heard that you are from a farmer's family. Don't you know the big gap in status between you and General Lin? Do you think the Zhongyong Hou Mansion will accept you?"

Chen Xi smiled and said: "Of course I know that there is a big identity gap between me and General Lin. As for whether the Zhongyong Hou Mansion will accept me, that is a matter for the future! Now General Lin and I are in love, and we are an unmarried man. We are not married, so why can't we be together? Anyway, we are in love but only polite, and we never break the rules!"

It has been two years since Chen Xi came to this world, and he has basically integrated into it.

Although the folk customs here are not as open as modern times, it is common for boys and girls who are in love and are engaged to be engaged to walk on the street together. That's why Chen Xi said this and did not give Xu Lanying a chance to say that she was "shameless"!

But even if she said it in advance, Xu Lanying still

It’s the matter of “hugging and hugging” that I won’t let go of.

"Oh? But I once saw Chen Dongjia and General Lin hugging each other hand in hand on the street. Is this the Chen Dongjia's 'love but not politeness'? Aren't the Chen Dongjia afraid that if Marquis Zhongyong can't get in in the future? Does the door of the mansion ruin your reputation?"

It wasn't until Xu Lanying said this that the other ladies finally understood.

It turns out that Miss Xu was targeting the Chen Dong family from the very beginning!

Because she saw Dongjia Chen and General Lin holding hands and hugging each other on the street, that's why she mentioned the "drama" she watched before!

The ladies couldn't help but reveal the light of gossip in their eyes.

When did Miss Xu actually develop feelings for General Lin from the Qinglang Camp?

What kind of man is General Lin from Qinglang Camp?

Since Lin Changqing came to Hangzhou, he has never attended the banquets of Hangzhou officials and their relatives, so the wives of these officials' families in Hangzhou have no idea what Lin Changqing looks like.

Chen Xi felt that it was a good thing that Lin Changqing did not attend these banquets, otherwise Miss Zhifu would not be the only one targeting her today, and she was afraid that she would be attacked by a group!

Chen Xi still looked calm and said with a smile: "What Miss Xu said is a bit wrong. General Lin and I are not hugging each other, but General Lin left Hangzhou and I only gave him a gentle hug to say goodbye. What's the point? Isn’t that right?”

Hugging when saying goodbye is common, and although it is uncommon between men and women, it is not unheard of.

But the description of "holding together" gives people a different feeling.

So Chen Xi specifically pointed it out. Sure enough, the others looked at each other a few times. Although they were gossiping, they did not show any disdain.

color.

Xu Lanying was the only one who fell in love with Lin Changqing first, so she became jealous when she heard that the two hugged in the street, so she deliberately said this.

Next, until the end of the banquet, Xu Lanying and Chen Xi did not say another word.

The difference is that Xu Lanying didn't say anything even when someone spoke to her, and gradually no one dared to talk to her.

But no one paid attention to Chen Xi, so she simply didn't say a word.

The banquet lasted for nearly an hour before it ended.

Before leaving, the prefect's wife took Chen Xi's hand and told her: "Mother Xi, you can come to our house more often when you have time. Yingniang has always told me how good you are and how much I admire you. You are about the same age, okay?" Move around a lot.”

Chen Xi didn't know Xu Lanying's change of attitude before and after. At this time, after listening to the prefect's wife's words, he felt that these housekeepers and wives were telling lies without blinking an eye.

She just smiled and said, "Thank you, madam."

Neither agreed nor refused, anyway, after today the prefect's wife should know that her daughter doesn't like her, and she will never say such words again, let alone invite her to the banquet again.

After returning home, Chen Xi took a comfortable bath and lay on the bed.

She only felt that attending a banquet was more tiring than her three days of busy business!

Tired of heart!

Turning over, Chen Xi recalled what happened at the banquet.

She didn't know if Miss Xu's change would bring her any trouble!

Forget it, the soldiers will cover up the water and earth, and the car will have a way to the mountain!

Just when Chen Xi thought she wouldn't have any interaction with the prefect's family, the prefect's wife sent her an invitation again!

Chen Xi was stunned and asked Dong Baozhen to find out.

Then Dong Baozhen came back and told her.

"My boss, Magistrate Xu's family did not organize a banquet this time. I think it was the magistrate's wife who invited you alone!"

Chen Xi didn't know what the prefect's wife was going to do, but she had no choice but to go to the banquet!
