the old lady’s birthday banquet ended very late. the older ones left very early, leaving the younger ones to play until midnight.
leng rongrong and li ruhua went back around the same time.
after she shocked everyone with her dance, no one came to find trouble with her.
even xuanyuan linlin and xuanyuan qiongyu were still in shock. they didn’t know that leng rongrong could dance so well, let alone that qi nongwu could also dance so well.
before she went back, xuanyuan qiongyu even greeted leng rongrong and asked her to come over the next day to have a meal with the old lady.
leng rongrong agreed.
the next day, leng rongrong attended an audition. at noon, she and li ruhua went straight to the xuanyuan family’s house.
in addition to xuanyuan qiongyu and the old lady, there were a few other juniors in the old mansion, such as xuanyuan linlin, xuanyuan youyou, xuanyuan jin, and xuanyuan xiu. almost all of them had come, so it was very lively.
the moment leng rongrong and li ruhua entered, they were surrounded by a group of people who looked at them like they were animals.
” i didn’t look closely yesterday, but now that i’ve taken a closer look, he really does look like someone from our xuanyuan family. ” xuanyuan xiu sized leng rongrong up with interest, ” did you really grow up in the countryside? ”
“it’s genuine.” leng rongrong nodded.
“then why are you so good at dancing? you’re pretty professional at it, not like someone from a poor village could learn it. ” xuanyuan xiu’s eyes were filled with contempt and ridicule.
“exactly. how did you dance so well? or did he know that he was going back to the xuanyuan family, so he made last-minute preparations to learn?” xuanyuan linlin laughed and said, ” you must have learned it last minute. are you afraid of losing face? ” you’re a fast learner.”
“can’t country bumpkins learn to dance? the life of a country bumpkin is different from what you imagine.” leng rongrong’s eyebrows raised slightly.
some country bumpkins lived much better lives than the young masters and young ladies of the capital.
some country bumpkins were more cultured and richer than them.
” heh, what else can we do? we’re in a poor and remote place. if we have the money to learn these things, we can’t even afford to eat! ” xuanyuan jin sneered.
” not every country bumpkin is that poor. some of them are even richer than the four great families. ” leng rongrong glanced at xuanyuan jin and the others.
xuanyuan jin and the others looked at each other, then burst into laughter. ” richer than the four great clans, hahahaha! ”
” we didn’t say anything. you don’t have to explain so nervously. ” xuanyuan xiu’s smile disappeared, and he tried his best to hold back his laughter. ” you’re still a member of the xuanyuan family, so we won’t laugh at you for being poor. i know that you poor people have a strong self-esteem and are more fragile. i can understand.”
a group of people surrounded leng rongrong. although they did not say anything overboard, their eyes were full of contempt.
on the other hand, lord rong didn’t care about this contempt at all. after all, she was full of confidence.
what right did a group of people who were so much poorer than her have to look down on her?
as they chatted, the group of people’s gazes fell on li ruhua.
“he’s your husband?” xuanyuan xiu suddenly stared at li ruhua and asked.
“no, i’m not. bodyguard.” leng rongrong said casually.
“bodyguard? no wonder he’s so tall.” xuanyuan jin nodded and said, ” i didn’t expect you to have a bodyguard. ” just hired? is it just for show?”
leng rongrong was speechless.
she was too lazy to explain anything.
“you guys can say whatever you want.”
after a short discussion in the living room, the old lady arrived.
she was supported by a middle-aged woman who looked like xuanyuan qiongyu as she walked out.
leng rongrong had read the information on the xuanyuan family, so she recognized her at a glance. this woman was xuanyuan qiongyu’s mother, xuanyuan mingyue, the only daughter of the old lady.
“grandma!”
when the group of people saw the old lady, they were as obedient as kittens. they sat upright and looked at the old lady in unison.
leng rongrong was speechless.
“how can you be so rude? don’t you know how to greet people?”
old lady xuanyuan was helped to a chair and sat down. she looked like an empress dowager.
he was clearly in good health, but when he walked, he always needed someone to support him.
the moment she sat down, her attitude was similar to that of the grand empress dowager in the palace. the group of juniors looked at her, not daring to open their mouths to speak.
“me?” leng rongrong pointed at herself after she realized it.
it seemed like he was the only one who didn’t call for anyone just now.
“hello, old lady.”
leng rongrong called out perfunctorily.
“old lady? now that you’ve returned to the xuanyuan family, you’re xuanyuan rongrong. the whole world knows that you’re xuanyuan rongrong. today, all the newspapers published this news. you don’t call me grandmother, but you call me old lady?”
old lady xuanyuan glared at leng rongrong in dissatisfaction.
“hello, grandma.” leng rongrong didn’t mind at all. she wouldn’t lose anything by calling her grandmother anyway.
“what kind of attitude is this?” old lady xuanyuan was very displeased. ” he’s not respectful to me at all. he’s so sloppy. ” didn’t your family teach you the rules? since you’re back at the xuanyuan family, you better behave yourself! aren’t you very smug? the xuanyuan family brought you back, so you’re the fifth miss of the xuanyuan family, so you’re lawless, aren’t you?”
“… no, i didn’t.” leng rongrong’s mouth twitched.
” if you want to stay in the xuanyuan family, then you’d better follow the rules. if you want to get some benefits from the xuanyuan family, then you’d better be obedient and do whatever i tell you to do! ”
old lady xuanyuan said sternly, full of anger.
“oh.” ” oh, ” leng rongrong replied. her attitude was neither soft nor hard, and she was still casual.
the old lady patted her chest and almost rolled her eyes.
leng rongrong was driving her crazy.
“hmph, where’s the painting you drew yesterday?” the old lady let out a sigh of relief, then stared at leng rongrong and asked.
“the painting from yesterday?” leng rongrong smiled at the old lady. ” didn’t you think that it was a fake? it wouldn’t be nice for me to give you a fake, so i took it back. ”
“i was wrong.” old lady xuanyuan frowned. ” i know that’s the real deal. ”
“oh.” leng rongrong’s lips twitched into a smile, pretending not to understand.
she finally understood why the old lady had called her over. it was because of the painting.
after all, it was worth hundreds of millions. moreover, there was no second authentic piece. it also had such a good meaning, so the old lady wanted to take it back from her.
li ruhua stood behind leng rongrong and snickered.
he knew that young madam had done it on purpose.
this old hag wanted to bully their young madam. who did she think she was?
young madam wasn’t a fool who would allow anyone to bully her. whoever dared to bully young madam would be the first to die of anger.
