I just received my pipe and it’s time to get off work.

Ada glanced at her gift and asked curiously, "Who is this for?

"I will go back to the old house to see my grandfather in a while and prepare a gift for him." Lu Qiuyue answered truthfully.

Ada gave a thumbs up and said, "You have good taste. This pipe is good. I used this kind of pipe when I met a client before. I think the chairman will like it."

"Thank you."

With Ada's words, Lu Qiuyue's heart finally settled down.

As long as the old man is happy.

Soon Xie Chongwen sent a message saying he was already waiting for her in the garage.

After hurriedly going downstairs and getting in the car, Xie Chongwen asked the driver to drive, with a very unhappy look on his face.

Seeing this, she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.

Tilting her head and staring into his eyes, Lu Qiuyue asked, "What's wrong?"

He held her hand and apologized guiltily: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect Grandpa to call other people. Something unexpected might happen today."

"Accident?"

Suddenly thinking of something, Lu Qiuyue smiled.

"Are those branches of the Xie family here too?"

Xie Chongwen was stunned for a moment, then laughed again.

"July is so smart, she guessed it so quickly."

He hooked Lu Qiuyue's waist and pulled her to sit next to him.

"But don't worry, I will always be with you and will never let anyone else bully you."

"Okay, then if I am bullied, you must help me." Lu Qiuyue said with a smile.

He gently pinched Lu Qiuyue's cheek, and his eyes became more and more gentle.

Xie's old house.

Seeing the parking lot in front of the door filled with various luxury cars, Lu Qiuyue's heart was lifted again.

It looks like there will be another tough battle today.

As soon as I reached the door, I heard someone making sarcastic remarks inside.

"Mother Chongwen, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but our Xie family can find any girl they want. Tell me why you insist on agreeing to let an illegitimate daughter marry into the family."

"Forget about her illegitimate daughter. She made a lot of noise about pursuing Zhou Ruixuan, and then she turned around and married our Chongwen. What does she think of our Chongwen?"

Lu Qiuyue subconsciously observed Xie Chongwen's expression.

Seeing that he didn't mind at all, Lu Qiuyue gently pulled her sleeve and apologized quietly: "I'm sorry, it's all because of me that you are criticized."

Xie Chongwen held her hand and interlocked their fingers, then shook his head: "Don't worry about other people's eyes."

"it is good."

The two of them entered the house together, and the room, which had been noisy just now, suddenly became cold.

Xie Chongwen glanced coldly at the fat woman sitting opposite Jiang Wan'er, then withdrew his gaze with disgust.

Seeing her daughter-in-law coming, Jiang Wan'er waved to Lu Qiuyue with a smile.

"July baby, come and sit here with mommy."

"Go." Xie Chongwen gently squeezed Lu Qiuyue's hand and let her go.

The woman sitting next to Jiang Wan'er was tactful enough to move aside.

She walked over with a smile on her face. As soon as she sat down, Jiang Waner took Lu Qiuyue's hand and said with a smile: "Our July baby is beautiful no matter how you look at her. Some people don't have such a baby, so they can only be jealous."

The fat woman pursed her lips in disdain.

Lu Qiuyue glanced at her.

She had a brief understanding of the people in the Xie family before. This woman should be the wife of Uncle Xie Er. Her name was Liu Xianglan and she was from the Liu family in Xishi.

The family still has some influence, so his status in the Xie family is quite high.

But unfortunately, she is not very pleasing to the eye and there are few sisters-in-law who are truly kind to her.

Liu Xianglan snorted disdainfully and muttered softly, "What a little vixen, just looking at her makes me sick."

Hearing this, Lu Qiuyue looked up and looked directly at Liu Xianglan.

Liu Xianglan glared at her, "What are you looking at? But since you have forgotten what I am looking at, why don't you help me answer this question, have you ever slept with Zhou Ruixuan?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd seemed to explode.

Seeing that no one spoke, Liu Xianglan didn't seem to think her question was abrupt, and even laughed out loud.

"Don't think I'm being harsh, but our Xie family is not a small family. Qiyue, you can understand that, right?"

"No." Lu Qiuyue spat out two words coldly.

With a pair of cold eyes, Lu Qiuyue still stared at Liu Xianglan with no intention of letting her go.

Liu Xianglan slowly lowered her head and her voice became much softer.

"I'm not wrong. If you go out, everyone knows that you are Zhou Ruixuan's licker. Do you just follow Zhou Ruixuan as soon as he says something?"

The woman sitting next to Liu Xianglan restrained her smile and pretended to persuade her: "Okay Xianglan, Qiyue is now a family with us. Even if you don't give face to Qiuyue, you have to consider your sister-in-law."

Liu Xianglan took her words to heart and kept saying, "Sister-in-law, I'm not trying to embarrass you on purpose, but this woman is not a good person to begin with. I'm doing this for your own good."

"What do you mean by 'for my own good'?" Jiang Wan'er asked.

Jiang Wan'er glanced at Lu Qiuyue's plain wrist and said, "Qiyue baby, why don't you wear the bracelet that mom gave you?"

bracelet?

When the people who were originally enjoying the show heard this, their faces instantly darkened.

Jiang Wan'er actually gave such a precious bracelet to Lu Qiuyue?

As if she had just noticed that their expressions were not right, Jiang Wan'er asked with a smile: "What's with that expression on your face? Did I say something wrong?"

Liu Xianglan asked in surprise: "Did you really give her the bracelet that the old lady left behind?"

Jiang Wan'er smiled and nodded, "Qiyue is the daughter-in-law that Chongwen's father, grandfather, and I approve of. What's wrong with us giving the bracelet to Qiyue?"

"You are, you..." Liu Xianglan said dissatisfiedly: "Lu Qiyue is an illegitimate daughter with a bad reputation. You match such a person to Chongwen. Have you ever thought about Chongwen's feelings?"

"What's wrong with that?" Xie Chongwen's cold voice came.

He helped the old man out of the tea room and glanced at Liu Xianglan sharply with a pair of cold eyes.

Frightened by his fierce gaze, Liu Xianglan lowered her head in fear and dared not speak again.

Xie Chongwen strode behind Lu Qiuyue and placed his hand affectionately on her shoulder.

Then he looked at Liu Xianglan coldly.

"I know Second Aunt has some complaints about our family, and also about Qiuyue, but Qiuyue is my wife. If it really bothers Second Aunt, she can choose not to come."

Liu Xianglan shook her head in fear, "That's not what I meant."

Seeing that the woman next to her didn't help her, Liu Xianglan glared at her.

"Please help me explain it."

The woman smiled awkwardly and lowered her voice and said, "Please stop talking. Can't you see that Chongwen looks unhappy now?"

After she finished speaking, she raised her head and smiled awkwardly at Xie Chongwen: "Don't worry, Chongwen, auntie supports you and Qiyue's marriage. Qiyue is a good girl with a beautiful and kind heart. There's no doubt about it."

Lu Qiyue: “…”

She finally realized that Liu Xianglan didn't have much brains and the manipulator behind the scenes was the person in front of her.

"Xie Xiaohui, what do you mean?" Liu Xianglan asked her fiercely.
