Since Madam Li was here, Xia Jinyuan would not drive her out, lest Madam Li would have something to gossip about Family Xia again.
He would not quarrel with Madam Xiao. There was no need for that. They could just talk it out. Besides, Madam Li, who had always been concerned about Family Xia, was here. He would not let her laugh at him.
Madam Li did not expect that she would be sent away, and her face turned cold.
She said with a faint smile, "Ah Yuan, I am your mother's good friend, and her only good friend in the capital. I know everything about your mother. Do you still need to send me away?"
"You know it's your business, but I don't want you to know it's my business." Xia Jinyuan smiled faintly. His calm expression had the natural elegance of Family Xia. "Please sit back."
"Shu Man, your son is really good. Go ahead. I'll wait here. Call me if you need anything. If you have time, you should teach him well. It's not a good thing to be too arrogant. "
The meaning in her words was not ordinary. Call me if you need anything?
Did she think that Family Xia was a dragon's pool or a tiger's den?
Xia Jinyuan did not want to argue with her. He just glanced at her and left the hall.
"Chenglan, sit down. I'll talk to Ah Yuan for a while." Madam Xiao did not answer her. She said gently and followed her son.
Although her son was not close to her, she was still on his side.
Behind her, Madam Li was so angry that she clenched the small bag in her hands. Her eyes were cold.
She accompanied him in spite of the hot weather, but she was no match for a son who did not even recognize her!
At this moment, Madam Xiao, who only had her son in her eyes, did not care about her friend's feelings. From the hall to the living room, she stopped Xia Jinyuan from pouring water for her and said softly, "Ah Yuan, sit down. I'm not thirsty."
She was not thirsty, but etiquette dictated that she still had to serve tea to a guest. Xia Jinyuan poured a cup of the lemonade that Old Madam Gu drank every day and placed it on the coffee table. When he sat down, his tall and broad figure suddenly seemed a little colder.
Xia Jinyuan looked at Madam Xiao, who had maintained herself so well that not a single strand of her hair had turned white. He looked at her as if she was a stranger and said without a trace of warmth, "Madam Xiao, I reminded you a long time ago not to disturb the peace of the two elders."
"You've worked hard all your life, and now you can finally do your own things in peace. We don't even dare to make you worry, so why do you like it?"
"No, Ah Yuan, I didn't want to disturb the peace of the two elders." Faced with her son's accusation, Mrs. Xiao smiled bitterly. "Your father reminded me last time, and I remember it. Unless it was absolutely necessary, I wouldn't come to the old house to disturb the two of you."
Unless absolutely necessary? What was it that she couldn't do?
Xia Jinyuan chuckled softly and leaned lazily on the sofa. He smiled and said, "You always need others to fulfill your wishes. It was like this in the past, and it is still like this now. You always need our Family Xia to fulfill your wishes, but when will you fulfill our Family Xia? "
"You didn't want to disturb them, but you didn't do it."
"That's true. My grandparents are not related to you at all. Given your personality of wanting to be happy, you naturally wouldn't feel at ease and would only want to feel comfortable. You were like this in the past. I really didn't expect that you would still be like this when you're almost 56 or 57."
