Chapter 267: Chapter 267: We Must Give the Old Master Face

For a moment, everyone seemed on the verge of backing down.

However, someone inside had sharp eyes and immediately noticed Lu Jing.

"The vixen of the Lu Family, do you still have the nerve to come to our Jiang Family?"

Hiss!

Just from the tone of that insult, it was clear who it was.

Lu Jing was completely stunned: Vixen?

After six years, hearing this title again even felt a bit nostalgic.

Jiang Ye had been fairly quiet originally, after all, it’s not appropriate for the younger generation to speak out during an elders’ quarrel.

But now, Jiang Qiu was insulting his woman, and Jiang Ye couldn’t bear it, nor could he stand it.

"Aunt, come on, say those three words again!"

If Jiang Qiu dared to insult again, Jiang Ye was ready to directly knock her jaw out of place.

If you can’t speak properly, then don’t speak at all.

In the entire Jiang Family, the most timid was Jiang Ye.

This great-nephew of hers had always been gloomy since childhood, especially the way he looked at you, as if he wanted to dissect you layer by layer.

Heh.

Only those with ulterior motives and a head full of bad ideas would fear being seen through, right?

For a while, Jiang Qiu truly didn’t dare to repeat the insult, she could only glare.

The moment Jiang Ye spoke up, Lu Jing’s heart was filled with confidence, and she stepped inside.

As she passed by Jiang Qiu, she didn’t even afford her a sideways glance.

"Grandpa Jiang, Uncle Jiang, Aunt Su," she greeted the three elders of the household.

As for Jiang Qiu, unless Lu Jing had gone absolutely mental, she wouldn’t fawn over her and call her Aunt.

Jiang’s mother, who had been quite furious before, suddenly beamed with joy upon seeing her daughter-in-law:

"Jing, come come, hurry in and take a seat.

Jiang Huai, what are you dawdling for? Go pour some water!"

"Oh!"

Jiang Yuan was helping support Old Sir Jiang while everyone else went about their tasks.

Only Jiang Qiu was left unattended.

Even the servants of the Jiang Family were hustling to and fro quickly.

In the courtyard, Jiang Qiu was so angry she was practically seeing stars, so frustrated!

Feeling extremely irked, Jiang Qiu, thinking of something, headed straight towards the house.

However, as soon as she entered, she saw the whole family looking so happy and cheerful that her mouth twisted.

Jiang’s mother couldn’t outright kick her out, so she simply ignored her and continued chatting with her daughter-in-law.

Jiang’s mother’s attitude meant Father Jiang didn’t dare utter another word, and Old Sir Jiang couldn’t really say much either, especially since this adopted daughter had truly been spoiled rotten!

All of her past actions were now known to Old Sir Jiang, causing him much heartache and regret.

It was his own fault!

If he hadn’t pampered her so much from a young age, would there be all these issues now?

But regret was useless now; after all, the one thing that doesn’t exist in the world is a pill for regret!

Cleverly, Jiang Qiu directly sat down next to Old Sir Jiang:

"Dad, look at them, they all just know how to bully me."

Tattling?

How old are you?

Do you really think Old Sir Jiang’s brain has gone bad just because he’s old?

Old Sir Jiang took a few sips of his tea before setting it down:

"Ah Qiu, you can’t be too petty as a person."

Pfft~

Jiang’s mother was the first to laugh at this remark.

She just couldn’t help it.

Lu Jing couldn’t help but grin, and the others were probably chuckling internally, too.

After all, they had to show respect for Old Sir Jiang.

Jiang Ye really didn’t have much patience and straightforwardly addressed everyone:

"Do whatever you like, just don’t involve my people, or else, I won’t show anyone face!"

Clearly, this message was meant for Old Sir Jiang.

Of course, Old Sir Jiang understood, but what else could he do besides sigh?
