It started with being betrayed by my ex-boyfriend
Chapter 209: Peerless Grace
Madam Li rolled her eyes as she spoke. Seeing that everyone's appetite was whetted, she continued, "She is not as beautiful as a fairy, but her facial features are very delicate, and her temperament is pure and clear. She is not impatient or impatient, and she looks like she is not worldly. She is not much different from a fairy. Although I am a woman, I couldn't bear to move after looking at her for a long time!"
She felt embarrassed when she said this: "At that time I didn't know she was Murong Qianqian. Later, the servants of the Murong family saw her and said that her daughter was weak and should not be exposed to the outside world. Then I knew it was her!"
If she had just looked for a while and left, perhaps nothing would have happened. However, she was later discovered and "invited" out by the servants. This was very embarrassing, so she had never mentioned it to anyone for all these years. Today, in order to curry favor with Bai Yunxi, she didn't care about anything else and even revealed her own past.
The others all laughed when they heard this, and when everyone saw that Bai Yunxi didn't seem to mind, the atmosphere gradually became lively.
Someone asked: "Is Murong Qianqian really as talented as the legend says?"
Madam Li immediately said, "After I went back, I secretly checked the person who contacted her. He turned out to be a famous professor at Yale University! He praised Murong Qianqian's writing so highly, how could it be false?"
Everyone couldn't help but admire her. A woman who never left her house could possess such extraordinary beauty and talent, which made these worldly women ashamed!
Bai Yunxi was also deeply shocked. Murong Qianqian's talent and elegance, if spoken of by someone who knew her well, might sound exaggerated, but when spoken of by an unrelated bystander, the authenticity was completely different!
She didn't know why, but the scene described by Madam Li kept appearing in front of her eyes: Murong Qianqian was sitting elegantly in front of the antique stone table in the courtyard of the Murong family, smiling all the time and talking about profound topics that most people couldn't understand.
"It's a pity that the beauty has a short life." Mrs. Li finally concluded.
Bai Yunxi looked at her and said seriously, "When I met the Murong family, she had already passed away for a long time. I have never met her in person, but I have seen her photos. Her peerless beauty is indeed incomparable to ordinary people."
Xin Baoqi saw Bai Yunxi's expression darken, and was afraid that something might happen if she got too caught up in it, so she smiled and said, "Our Madam Ji is also a rare person with an elegant temperament and is approachable."
All the ladies hurriedly responded, "That's right."
"That's right. How can an ordinary mortal compare to a peerless person like Mr. Ji? Without the temperament of Madam Ji, it is impossible to conquer him!"
Well, although these words sounded pleasant, Bai Yunxi just listened to this purely diplomatic compliment and did not respond.
However, everyone can see that Bai Yunxi is a relatively easy-going person, unlike the legendary Ji Hanmo who has a weird and terrible temper.
So the atmosphere of the following banquet will be much more relaxed.
However, just as the dinner was getting into its climax, two women quickly walked in from the door.
To be precise, it was an elderly woman with a young woman with a slim figure.
The young woman was holding a small pet dog.
"Hey, sister, it's so lively here!" Before everyone could react, the young woman had already taken the initiative and shouted.
Everyone was shocked and didn't know what was going on. However, when the woman called out "Sister", her tone was full of obvious contempt, and everyone could hear it.
Everyone looked at Xin Baoqi in confusion and no one said anything.
Bai Yunxi also looked at Xin Baoqi and put down his chopsticks.
It looks like he came here specifically to cause trouble?
Sure enough, the old woman snorted and sneered twice: "Xin Baoqi, you are so capable! You hold a party at home while my son is not at home? I was wondering why my son's business has been so bad recently. With a spendthrift woman like you at home, how much money can he make?!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone seemed to understand something. As expected, Xin Baoqi's face froze and she stammered, "Mom..."
She walked over while shouting, seemingly trying to get them away. After all, there were so many wives of local wealthy businessmen in the living room, and Bai Yunxi hadn't left yet. If a commotion broke out, it would be embarrassing for everyone.
Unexpectedly, the old woman did not give her the chance at all, and directly shouted fiercely: "Shut up! Who is your mother?! You are a wild girl from the countryside, and you think that you can become a phoenix by climbing into my son's bed and giving birth to his child? You wish!"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. They didn't expect that they would encounter such a weird thing when they were invited to a dinner party. This was clearly the rhythm of a family fight between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law!
They were just watching the fun, but Bai Yunxi's body was shocked when she heard it. What the mother-in-law Xin Baoqi said was exactly the same as what Ji Hanmo's mother Yang Qiurong said to her that night!
She couldn't help but look up. Not only was the tone of voice similar, but even the expressions on their faces were exactly the same!
Contempt and disdain from the heart!
Originally, she just came to attend the banquet, and like all other ladies, as an outsider, she should stay out of such family affairs and have no right to interfere. However, subconsciously, she felt uncomfortable with the old woman and the arrogant young woman beside her.
But the old woman immediately looked at the young woman and said lovingly, "Look at Xinyue. She is obviously the daughter of a wealthy family, but she lives a secluded life and never spends a penny. She always helps Awang with his business! You are several years older than Xinyue, and you can't do anything all day long except spending money. You don't even know how to save money and manage the household for your husband!"
Haha, when Bai Yunxi heard this, he felt the skin all over his body tighten.
The woman named Xinyue immediately put on an obedient, sensible and shy face: "Auntie, don't say that. It's my blessing that I can do something for Brother Wang. I don't ask for any status. Even if I can only accompany Brother Wang as a sister, I will be satisfied."
Bai Yunxi gasped. The good girl-like action and the pleading tone made her look like the second Han Ying!
The old woman was really distressed, and immediately patted her on the shoulder and said, "Xinyue, good child, don't worry, I will take care of it for you, and it won't be long before she has to give up her seat to you!"
As she spoke, she glanced at Xin Baoqi coldly: "This woman comes from a poor family, is vulgar and incompetent. Awang has long been tired of her, but she has been holding on to the child and refuses to divorce. Humph, her child is also Awang's child, my grandson. I don't believe I can do anything to her?"
