Shen Qi probably never thought that she would agree so readily, to the point that she would be making things difficult for herself for a period of time in the future.
The car quickly returned to He Family.
As soon as he entered the main gate of the He Family, he was brought before the Madam He.
Seeing that Shen Qi had returned unharmed, Madam He heaved a sigh of relief.
"Grandma, I'm sorry for making you worry!" Shen Qi immediately hugged Madam He.
Madam He patted Shen Qi's back and sighed, saying, "Sigh, after the new year, why are you so unlucky? In just a month, so many things had happened! This was simply a oying! Fortunately, you managed to survive the two crises, Xiao Qi, you are truly fortunate! "
Shen Qi immediately said, "That's right, that's why Xiao Qi is so blessed! Grandmother has to live for a hundred years to protect Xiao Qi."
Madam He immediately smiled, "Girl, just because your mouth is sweet that you know how to make me happy."
Shen Qi and Madam He laughed together.
Lin Xin stood at her original position with an awkward expression.
During the time that Shen Qi wasn't at home, she had used up all of her mind to curry favor with the Madam He.
Although Madam He was polite to her, Lin Xin could feel that Madam He was only treating her like a guest, and not like her, who was pampered from the bottom of his heart.
Lin Xin instantly felt that her heart was unbalanced.
She was also a grandson's wife, and a eldest grandson's daughter-in-law, why couldn't she compare to Shen Qi?
For the past few days, she had been carefully trying to curry favor with him and did her best to be his granddaughter-in-law.
But the Madam He had never been so intimate.
Shen Qi had merely been kidnapped once, and had encountered another storm. Madam He was so anxious that she could not eat, and could not fall asleep.
[Even my dear grandma can't compare to that, right?]
Just what was so good about Shen Qi that the Madam He would be so worried about him?
Lin Xin's face became even more stiff, she could not retract the smile on her face.
After Shen Qi finished pacifying the Madam He, she said: "Grandmother, the Xiao Qi is truly blessed with great fortune. Furthermore, with Yi Ning here, how could anything happen? You, put your heart back in your stomach, all right. Oh right, it's already noon. Have you eaten lunch? "
Right after Shen Qi finished speaking, the and the housekeeper immediately asked: "Where have you used it? Hearing that the Young Mistress is coming back, the Old Mistress will be waiting for you to start your meal! "
Shen Qi immediately said, "Then let's start the meal immediately! Grandma, let me accompany you to eat! "
"Good, good, good!" Only then did Madam He smile in satisfaction."Eat, eat!"
After a while, lunch arrived.
As the eldest grandson's wife, Lin Chen naturally sat on the side as well.
Shen Qi picked up the chopsticks and personally served the dishes to the Old Mistress Shen.
What was Shen Qi going to eat, what was the Madam He going to eat?
Lin Xin felt even more uncomfortable when she saw this.
Shen Qi raised her head and saw Lin Xin looking at him, and could not help but ask: "Sister-in-law, isn't the taste of the food good? The main reason was that Grandma was old, so she ate light meals. If you don't like it, can you let the chef cook a few dishes for you alone? "
Hearing Shen Qi's words, Lin Xin's heart felt even more uncomfortable.
She is the elder sister-in-law!
She even asked her sister-in-law to arrange everything for her to eat.
Lin Xin replied dejectedly, "No need, this is pretty good. Actually, my diet is also very light, I don't like to eat too greasy things. After all, you also need to stay away from high calorie levels to maintain your figure."
The Madam He glanced at Lin Xin and said, "Ugh, girls need to be thin in order to look good. However, it's not good if they are too thin. This is the best case for Xiao Qi."
Shen Qi immediately laughed: "Grandma! How can you praise someone like that? Sister-in-law is also very good! "Her figure is also very beautiful."
Madam He only smiled and did not speak.
After eating lunch, Shen Qi took care of Madam He who had fallen asleep and prepared to go see the children.
Before Shen Qi could walk out of the door, she was stopped by Lin Xin.
"Xiao Qi, are you in a hurry? Can I talk to you? " Lin Xin directly walked in front of Shen Qi."I'll treat you to a drink?"
"Ah, alright." Shen Qi thought about it, then nodded her head and agreed. She sent Shen Lu a message and asked him to take care of Lin Xin a bit more, then drove away from He Family Mansion with Lin Xin.
After finding a club he frequented, Shen Qi ordered a cup of tea and some snacks, and said to Lin Xin: "I've never gotten along with you before, so I don't know what you taste like. Sorry. You seem to have eaten very little today, do you need more food? "
Lin Xin did not appreciate the gesture and immediately rejected it."No need, I don't really eat much."
"Ah, well then."Sister-in-law, what do you want to talk about with me?" Shen Qi asked.
"I just wanted to ask you something." Lin Xin lowered his eyes, thought for a while and said: "Xiao Qi, even he is a descendant of the He Family, why doesn't he have the slightest right of inheritance? According to the inheritance law, even an adopted son had the right to inherit! How was it possible? The entire He Family was He Yi Ning's! Ah, don't misunderstand. I am not plotting to get the He Family's property or anything like that, I am just purely curious, I want to ask you about it. I also heard some rumors, saying that you were originally going to marry Yiqi? "
Shen Qi's heart thumped loudly.
It really happened again and again before the situation settled down.
Who was talking behind his back?
"Xiao Qi, what's wrong with your face?" Lin Xin stared at Shen Qi's face and said: "Could it be that the rumors outside are all true?"
"Eldest Sister-in-Law!" Shen Qi calmly interrupted Lin Xin's words, her tone calm but not lacking in dignity as she spoke: "I have already confirmed that you are a person of the He Family by calling you sister-in-law. After all, you and your big brother aren't officially married. Sister-in-law, you have also been living here for a year. You should know what kind of family the He Family is."
Lin Xin did not say anything.
Shen Qi continued: "For such a large clan, there would naturally be a lot of gossip. But at least we have to be able to distinguish between right and wrong. Any act or speech of disintegrating the family would be met with a heavy blow. Otherwise, why would his elder sister-in-law think that the family would flourish for so long? Her gra y had supported this family for dozens of years, so her eldest sister-in-law was a smart person. Xiao Qi was also sincerely trying to persuade her not to say such words in front of her. Otherwise, Xiao Qi ca ot even guarantee what will happen."
"Are you threatening me? You are using your identity as the He Family's Young Na y to suppress me? You are using your identity as the mistress of He Family to suppress me? " As expected, Lin Xin was no longer happy."I am the future eldest grandson of the He Family!"
Shen Qi laughed.
Lin Xin had probably realized that her words were too full, and she immediately changed the topic, saying, "That's not what I meant. I do not have the thought of competing with you for the position of He Family's mistress. I just think it's really hard to fit in. Oh right, you were lucky to be able to return safely. How long will it take you to move back? Grandmother still very much hopes that you can come back early and stay."
