My sister became the empress, but I'm still growing vegetables and raising chickens

The younger sister paused slightly, glanced at Mrs. Xu, and then looked at Fourth Master Xu. Fourth Master Xu was also obviously confused, wondering why Mrs. Xu came up and pulled Si Muyan.

However, the eldest sister-in-law had a sharp eye and was always very good at judging people. The three sisters of the Si family were triplets, but their personalities were very different. The eldest sister, in particular, had a heroic aura. Moreover, the housekeeper had been taking care of her younger brothers and sisters for a long time, which made her look less immature than her two younger sisters and more mature and dignified.

That must be the case. The sister-in-law guessed that Si Muyan was the head of the family, so she was so affectionate to her.

Several people in the Si family had the same idea. Although Si Xingzhi was the elder, Mrs. Xu was a female relative and she couldn't be too enthusiastic towards Si Xingzhi.

When they arrived at the dining hall, Old Mrs. Xu was already waiting there in the corridor. When she saw the Si family, she immediately smiled and greeted them.

"Oh, I've been waiting for you to come. It's really polite of you to come and bring gifts."

Si Muyan smiled and bowed, "Old Madam, this is as it should be. I also want to thank you for your generosity back then. You helped us out in our urgent need. It is only then that our Si Family Food Shop is what it is today."

Old Lady Xu smiled and said, "It's just a piece of cake. You guys are really capable. Feng'er brought you some ingredients to make a hot pot and asked the chef to make it for me. The taste was truly unforgettable."

Of course, she is an old woman and cannot be used to strong flavors, so she would not say this in front of the Si family.

Old Mrs. Xu and Si Xingzhi sat in the main seats. The other side was supposed to be occupied by Mrs. Xu, but Old Mrs. Xu insisted that Si Muyan sit with her.

Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "Don't be polite, Miss Si. Today is your turn... We will be family in the future, so why bother with all those empty formalities?"

Si Muyan always felt that Sister Xu was so strange. She was too enthusiastic towards her. She should be Sister Xu's younger sister-in-law in the future, so why did she always stick to her?

Although the younger sister was a little unhappy, the smile from Fourth Master Xu over there made her very happy and all the unhappiness in her heart disappeared.

She should be happy that others respect her eldest sister. Why should she be jealous? As long as her fourth brother is devoted to her, it's fine.

The meal was a great success for both the host and the guests. Mrs. Xu was a businesswoman, and her way of speaking to different people made everyone in the Si family very happy.

Si Xingzhi came from a prominent family. He was polite and courteous, and spoke in a humorous and elegant manner. The three sisters in the Si family looked similar and had very good personalities. The youngest sister Si was innocent and lively, and she was trying hard to act like an adult, which made the Xu family particularly satisfied.

After the meal, tea was served. The Si family members rinsed their mouths and wiped their hands, and they were very well-mannered.

Mrs. Xu spoke quickly, "I heard that your Si family used to be a wealthy family. Now judging by your words and actions, it is indeed so. It's not my mother-in-law's fault. The first time she saw Yan girl, she praised her endlessly. For so long, she has been thinking about you, Yan girl. Now, when she learned about Feng'er's thoughts, she was very satisfied..."

Before she finished speaking, she saw that everyone in the Si family had changed expressions, and she hesitated for a moment. Was there something wrong with what she said?

Old Lady Xu also noticed that something was wrong with the Si family and asked in confusion, "Yan girl, you..."

Si Muyan looked up at her younger sister and saw that her face was extremely pale, and Fourth Master Xu over there looked the same.

She didn't need to think too much to know that today had caused a huge misunderstanding. As for how the misunderstanding came about, she didn't know, but it seemed unnecessary to know so clearly.

Si Muyan pulled her hand out of Old Lady Xu's, gathered her composure, and said calmly, "I don't know if the Old Lady and the First Lady were mistaken, but Fourth Master Xu has admired my younger sister for a long time. I originally thought it was inappropriate, but since my Si family is now in decline, I don't want to consider other things for the time being and don't want to let my younger sister be wronged. But Fourth Master Xu vowed that he had convinced his family and would never look down on my younger sister, so I agreed to this."

Old Mrs. Xu was originally holding Si Muyan with one hand and the teacup lid with the other. When she heard this, she dropped the lid on the cup and looked at Si Muyan in surprise.

Mrs. Xu was the most tactful and immediately interjected, "Oh, oh, this is really, really embarrassing in front of the guests. It's all our fault. We didn't even know who was who and acted like this. It's my fault. I deserve to be beaten, I deserve to be beaten!"

She patted her face twice and quickly asked the maids to pour tea.

"Feng'er is really something. He didn't even explain it to us clearly. Please don't be angry, Mr. Si and the three girls. It's really our fault. He actually..."

As Mrs. Xu spoke, she apologized to Si Muyan, then quickly walked over to her younger sister with a cup of tea.

At this time, you can apologize frankly and correct your mistakes. As long as they are reasonable people, they won't say anything more.

"Don't mind it, Third Miss. This is the first time Feng'er has ever done this. He was shy when he came back and was too embarrassed to speak. That's why both mother-in-law and I misunderstood him!"

The younger sister was so upset that she was about to cry. She was at a loss as to what to do, but when she saw Mrs. Xu coming over, she thought to herself, Mrs. Xu was right. It must be that Fourth Brother Xu was too shy and hadn't explained it clearly to Mrs. Xu.

Old Mrs. Xu liked the eldest sister in the first place, and she misunderstood for a moment.

But before Mrs. Xu could come over, they heard the sound of Old Lady Xu putting the teacup heavily on the table. Everyone was stunned, including Mrs. Xu, and she didn't dare to move forward.

Old Mrs. Xu is over fifty years old. Her sons have all started their own families and careers. Her youngest son is actually her nephew, and the one she is most worried about.

She looked at her youngest son, then at Si Muyan, then at her younger sister, and asked, "Feng'er, tell me, was this a mistake?"

"Mother..." Fourth Master Xu stood up, his face flushed red, and he stammered, not daring to say a word.

Old Lady Xu's eyes grew cloudy. "You never told Mother it was Miss Si San!"

The younger sister was smart and extremely sensitive. She understood without Old Lady Xu having to explain clearly that she had always liked the eldest sister and her dream daughter-in-law was also the eldest sister. And now that things had gotten this far, Old Lady Xu hadn't even considered respecting her.

She turned and ran out.

"Third sister!" Si Xingzhi was worried and anxious when he saw his daughter running out. He didn't know whether to leave or stay, and hesitated, not knowing what to do.

The younger brother had already stood up and chased after her: "Third sister!"

Si Muyan suppressed the anger in her heart, stood up and said, "Dad, go follow Third Sister and don't let her do anything stupid. Second Sister, come to me!"

The second sister said nothing, her eyes fixed on Fourth Master Xu until she heard her eldest sister calling her. Then she pursed her lips, walked quickly to her sister's side, and stood side by side with her.
