Chapter 134: Qiao Family in Beijing
Du Yujie was driving home leisurely and talked to his father on the phone on the way.
"Dad, why didn't you and Mom come to attend Keyi's wedding today?"
"Hmm? Are there guests at home?"
"Who is it?"
"Okay, okay, let's go back first."
After hanging up the phone, Du Yujie stepped on the accelerator, wishing the car could fly.
As soon as he entered the house, the servant immediately came forward and said, "Master, your grandmother is here."
“I’m in the living room right now.”
Grandma? What? I've never heard of it!
Du Yujie said while changing his shoes, "I know, just go ahead and do your thing."
After changing my shoes, I walked straight to the living room, where several people were sitting on the sofa.
An old lady and a middle-aged man.
There was a man of similar age next to him. Du Yujie was looking at him, and he was also looking at Du Yujie.
Qiao Ling and Du Liming also sat together.
Qiao Ling waved to Du Yujie and said, "Xiaojie, come here quickly."
Du Yujie glanced at those people again before sitting next to Qiao Ling.
"Mom, who are they?"
Qiao Ling smiled and said, "Xiao Jie, call someone quickly."
“This is your grandmother.”
“That’s your uncle.”
"And that's your cousin."
Du Yujie was stunned and asked in surprise: "Mom, didn't your mother's family die out?"
This sentence was suddenly dropped like a bomb, and the atmosphere instantly became awkward.
At this moment, the faces of the three people opposite froze. They obviously did not expect Du Yujie to say such words so directly.
Du Liming quickly explained: "It's a misunderstanding, Xiaojie doesn't know you guys, so he always thought... uh..."
He was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to save the situation.
However, Ji Xianglan smiled generously and said, "It's okay, it's normal."
She didn't seem to care about Du Yujie's rudeness.
Then, she turned to Du Yujie and said affectionately, "Hey...Xiaojie, come here and let grandma take a look."
Seeing this, Qiao Ling quickly took Du Yujie's hand and said softly, "Go over there."
Although Du Yujie felt very unfamiliar with his mother's family, he was still reluctantly pulled over by Qiao Ling.
Ji Xianglan looked at Du Yujie carefully, with a gentle light in her eyes.
She looked Du Yujie up and down, then smiled with satisfaction, as if she loved her grandson very much.
"Not bad, youngest. This child looks just like you."
Ji Xianglan said with appreciation.
After hearing this, Qiao Ling smiled slightly and responded, "I guess so." There was a hint of tenderness in her eyes.
At this time, the middle-aged man next to him looked at Du Yujie kindly and said in a gentle voice: "Xiao Jie, I am your uncle."
He introduced himself: "Qiao Jingwen"
Qiao Jingwen looked at Qiao Junze and said softly, "Junze, why don't you say hello?"
After hearing his father's words, Qiao Junze raised his lips slightly, revealing a smile, and said: "Hello cousin, I am Qiao Junze"
Du Yujie glanced at Qiao Jingwen and Qiao Junze calmly, and said expressionlessly: "Oh, hello grandma, hello uncle, hello cousin"
Seeing her son like this, Qiao Ling's face changed slightly, and she frowned in displeasure. She quickly reached out and gently pushed Du Yujie's shoulder, and whispered: "Don't be so stern, be polite!"
However, Du Yujie was unmoved. Instead, he sneered and retorted in a cold tone: "What's polite? If they were willing to support you in the beginning, would that old woman, grandma, dare to bully you?"
When Ji Xianglan heard that Qiao Ling was bullied, the smile on her face immediately disappeared. Instead, she looked at Du Liming angrily and asked sternly, "What's going on? Du Liming, explain it to me!"
Du Liming was also stunned. He had never expected things to turn out like this.
Qiao Ling quickly explained: "Well...it's not what you think"
Qiao Jingwen comforted Qiao Ling: "Youngest, don't be afraid."
Then he turned to Du Liming and said, "With my brother here, I want to ask you, what exactly has bullied our Qiao Ling?"
"Du Liming, please explain yourself to me clearly!" Qiao Jingwen's eyes were full of majesty.
Du Liming now had no idea how to explain to his wife and her family and could only sit there awkwardly.
Qiao Ling looked at her husband's embarrassed look, slapped Du Yujie's head angrily, and said unhappily: "What nonsense are you talking about? Who told you that I was bullied?"
Du Yujie shrugged and said, "That's right."
Qiao Ling was so angry that she slapped Du Yujie again and said, "What nonsense!"
Then he said to Ji Xianglan: "It's all a misunderstanding, I was not bullied"
Ji Xianglan was obviously a little unconvinced. She looked at Du Yujie and said gently, "Xiaojie, grandma doesn't listen to your mother. Tell grandma what happened?"
Du Yujie glanced at his mother, then said to Ji Xianglan: "My grandma, that old woman, asked my mother to wash her feet!"
"What? Washing feet? Du Liming, what did you promise?"
When Ji Xianglan heard this, she became extremely angry. She turned to look at Du Liming and shouted at him.
"You said you wouldn't let the youngest be wronged. If I had known this would happen, I should have stopped the youngest from marrying you!"
Ji Xianglan became angrier as she spoke, and her face turned gloomy.
Hearing Ji Xianglan's scolding, Du Liming was about to explain, but Qiao Ling suddenly said anxiously: "I didn't wash it. At that time... it was..."
"My mother-in-law wanted me to wash her feet, but Liming disagreed."
"I had a falling out with my family because of this, and we even had a fight."
"Our family hasn't had any contact with my mother-in-law for more than 20 years," Qiao Ling explained hurriedly.
After hearing Qiao Ling's words, Ji Xianglan and Qiao Jingwen's expressions relaxed.
Ji Xianglan asked: "Xiao Jie, is that so?"
Du Yujie poked his chin and said, "It's about the same. I just wanted to bully but failed."
After hearing this, Ji Xianglan felt relieved and said, "Not bad."
"Second brother, go away"
Qiao Jingwen: “???”
Ji Xianglan smiled at Qiao Ling again and said, "Youngest, come and sit over here."
Qiao Jingwen tactfully moved away.
On the other side, Du Liming was feeling extremely uncomfortable, and the whole day could be described as walking on thin ice.
The look in his eyes when he looked at his son changed.
The little bastard went too far by setting a trap for me.
Du Yujie sat next to Du Liming again and said with a smile, "Dad, you don't look very well."
Du Liming's heart skipped a beat, wondering if this kid was going to make things difficult for him.
Du Liming quickly said: "No, I'm just a little tired."
At this time, Du Yujie's cell phone rang and he took it out and looked at it.
An unknown number.
It just hung up.
I didn't expect him to call again.
"Hey! Who are you?"
Chen Yating shouted angrily: "Du, you run pretty fast!"
"You better be careful and don't let me catch you"
As soon as he heard the crazy voice of Chen Yating, Du Yujie hung up the phone immediately.
When he looked up, everyone in the room was staring at him.
Du Yujie: “…”
"Wrong number"
