Chapter 420 Unwarranted Provocation (1)
Lin Xiaoqiao couldn't look at others openly, so he never saw the faces of the two young ladies of the Hou's Mansion.

When the two sisters finished feeling emotional, Mrs. Hou pulled the two girls behind her, pushed them to the front, wiped away her tears and said, "Yan'er, Min'er, come and see your aunt."

When the two girls heard their mother's words, they were obedient and bowed to Widow Zheng.

Widow Zheng quickly pulled the two of them up, and then pulled out Lin Xiaoqiao behind her, letting her greet everyone.

Following the rules, Lin Xiaoqiao walked forward and bowed his knees to salute, and said crisply, "Madam is well!"

Madam Hou's expression was indifferent, and she only gave her a little help, "This is Miss Lin, she's born neatly." Then she turned her head to look at Bisi, the maid who was accompanying her.

Bisi understood, took out an autumn-colored purse, and stuffed it into Lin Xiaoqiao's hand, "Girl, let's play with it."

Lin Xiaoqiao was holding the purse in his hand, and only moved his index finger a few times, and he knew that the purse contained nothing valuable, just a few gold and silver nudes.

Immediately, he felt a little depressed, what was going on, could it be that he dismissed her as a shabby household or a little maid, the first time they met, he rewarded her with half a bag of gold and silver.

Although Lin Xiaoqiao doesn't care for things given by others, she has learned from Widow Zheng for so long, and spent some time in the inner circle of Anping Town, so she knows that it is the first time for the wives of this rich family When meeting the younger generation, the importance of the meeting gift depends entirely on the intimacy of the relationship and the size of the face.

Previously, Lin Xiaoqiao had received gifts for meeting, including jade pendants, bracelets, and even some that he hadn’t prepared for before, and could only pull a hairpin from his head temporarily, but never like this one today. What gold and silver nudes did she receive, but the girl Luzhu, who was often rewarded by some wives and ladies, saved a lot of gold and silver nudes.

Mrs. Marquis of Wu'an's behavior like this is obviously slapping her in the face, or giving herself a blow. No matter what the situation is, Mrs. Hou has really humiliated her. The smile on Lin Xiaoqiao's face I couldn't hold back anymore, I just stood aside with my mouth pursed, really angry in my heart.

However, for the sake of Widow Zheng's face, she tried her best to hold back the purse in her hand and didn't smash it on the person opposite or throw it on the ground.

And Widow Zheng also understood it, and felt a little angry in her heart. She blamed her sister for not being a human being, and immediately put away the smile on her face, and said to Lin Xiaoqiao, "You child, didn't I agree with you before?" Is it? What are you calling Madam, just like Xuewen, you can just call her Auntie, there is no need to be unfamiliar!"

Mrs. Wu'an Hou's heart trembled when she heard this, she understood that this was the elder sister's intentional reminder to herself, then she glanced at the elder sister's stiff face and thought about it quickly, she didn't want to see her for the first time, so she just fell In order to save the face of her eldest sister, she immediately changed her smiling face reluctantly, took off a jade bracelet from her hand, and put it on Lin Xiaoqiao's hand.

Lin Xiaoqiao originally wanted to push back, but thinking of Aunt Zheng's love for her on weekdays, she still didn't want to embarrass her, so she swallowed her anger and accepted it, but she couldn't force a smile on her face, she just lowered her head and spoke in a stiff tone. Thank you, "Thank you Madam Hou!"

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Marquis Wu'an felt even more displeased, especially when she heard Lin Xiaoqiao's "Mrs. Hou", she only thought that Lin Xiaoqiao didn't know how to flatter her, but because of her elder sister's face, she couldn't get angry. I want to have a good talk with my eldest sister in private.

Widow Zheng saw that the scene was a bit awkward, so she smiled and pulled Lin Xiaoqiao up, walked to the two ladies of the Hou Mansion, and said: "You little sisters, let's get to know each other, so we can play together later. "

Lin Xiaoqiao didn't want to spoil Aunt Zheng's face, so she bowed to the two ladies of the Hou Mansion first, and made up her mind to do her best courtesy, and didn't want to be more entangled with the two daughters in front of her. There is something to do.

Cheng Jingyan, the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion, smiled kindly, helped Lin Xiaoqiao up, and saluted her back. The second lady, Cheng Jingmin, saw her elder sister doing this, so she also came up and bowed. The expression looks a little weird.

Now that they had greeted each other, Lin Xiaoqiao didn't want to make friends with them, so he stepped aside spontaneously. Unexpectedly, Cheng Jingyan came forward and greeted Lin Xiaoqiao, "My name is Yan'er. I'm 14 years old this year. I don't know if I should call Ms. Lin an older sister or a younger sister?"

Lin Xiaoqiao was a little confused for a moment, and the eldest lady glanced at Widow Zheng.

Seeing this, Widow Zheng came forward with a smile and said, "You are all the same age, only my Xiaoqiao was born in August, so she should be a few days younger than Yan'er."

"Auntie is right. I was born in June. It seems that I picked up a younger sister for nothing today." Cheng Jingyan said with a bit of joy.

Holding Lin Xiaoqiao's hand again, he said, "Since I recognized my younger sister for nothing, as an older sister, I always have to give a greeting gift."

When Lin Xiaoqiao heard this, just as she was about to shirk, she stuffed a purse over. Before Lin Xiaoqiao had time to see what the purse looked like, he only touched it through the fabric, and immediately felt a cloud of anger and rushed mind.

He raised his head again, looked carefully at the sarcasm and contempt in Cheng Jingyan's eyes, and was instantly speechless with anger. The mother and daughter were too deceitful, and they used such things to humiliate them one after another. she.

Widow Zheng didn't see clearly what Cheng Jingyan stuffed, she only noticed Lin Xiaoqiao's expression was unhappy, even a little angry, so she asked, "What's wrong?"

Hearing Widow Zheng's voice, Lin Xiaoqiao temporarily suppressed the anger in his heart, but he couldn't stand it any longer, so he bowed stiffly and said goodbye, "I'm not feeling well, so I'll take my leave first."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and left without looking back. Seeing her appearance like this, Widow Zheng knew that Cheng Jingyan must have provoked her just now. The purse is on the top, the things inside must not be good, otherwise, that girl Xiaoqiao would not leave in such a disregard of the occasion.

Sure enough, the girl Xiaoqiao didn't take a few steps before throwing a purse on the ground, and she knew that the girl was really angry.

Thinking of this, Widow Zheng looked into Cheng Jingyan's eyes, full of deep thought and disappointment, and she didn't go to ask someone to call Lin Xiaoqiao back, since she has already torn her face, it's better to let that girl hide, so as not to Come out again to be angry.

"I didn't expect Miss Lin to have a temper! How could she be so rude?" Mrs. Wu'anhou didn't know what her daughter's behavior was, but she also knew that it was not a good deed, but she refused to blame her daughter. Half a sentence, said pretending to be dissatisfied.
