Chapter 9
The premise for her to do all this is that she must have the opportunity to go to Linglong Pavilion.
This request was her biggest purpose in trying so hard to please the old lady today.
The old lady obviously didn't expect this to be her request.
She had heard Mrs. Liu mention this incident before, and she knew that the children of both families were going to Linglong Pavilion, and the money would still be taken from the public account.
The old lady is not a stingy person, and the children should want to gain experience.
But now, what Lan Qingjia means is that this child is not qualified to go to Linglong Pavilion at all?
The old lady's eyes suddenly darkened, and she glanced sharply at Mrs. Liu, saying in a deep voice, "Mrs. Liu, didn't you say before that you would take the money from the father-in-law and let the children of the two families go to Linglong Pavilion together?
What, isn’t Jia’er the child of two families? She doesn’t have the qualifications to go to Linglong Pavilion, so she needs to find an opportunity to come to me to ask for grace? "
After hearing what Lan Qingjia said, Ms. Liu's heart skipped a beat, but before she could react, the old lady launched an attack to accuse her.
Mrs. Liu calmed down and stood up quickly, with a decent smile on her face.
"Mother, don't get me wrong, this is absolutely nothing. Jia'er is the eldest daughter of our eldest brother, how could she be disqualified?
Her daughter-in-law has already prepared her share of the money, so naturally she can go with her that day. It seems that the child got distracted and thought she couldn't go."
Lan Qingjia looked at Mrs. Liu with a bit of grievance, then looked at Lan Qingwan, her tone was a bit softer, but her pity became more obvious.
"But it was my sister who told me not to go. Anyway, it would be a waste of money if I went."
Lan Qingwan's face turned pale in an instant. She jumped up from her seat. For the first time, she forgot to maintain the gentle and good sister persona she had always maintained, and shouted back, "You are talking nonsense, I don't!"
Lan Qingjia shrank, pursed her lips slightly, and did not argue with her. Instead, her voice became even lower, like a poor little bastard.
"My sister said no, then, then no..."
Those words again! Just now about the birthday gift, she looked like such a pitiful doormat.
If you say no, then no.
If you say no, then it’s not.
This kind of compromise was more lethal than confronting Lan Qingwan directly. After all, she gave in and didn't argue. Such an attitude made it even harder for people to say anything to argue.
Lan Qingwan felt like someone was holding her throat. She obviously had a lot to say in her heart, but her throat was blocked and she couldn't go up or down. This feeling was really terrible!
Lan Qingwan looked at the old lady aggrievedly, "Grandma, I really didn't say that..."
The old lady glanced at her lightly and said in a very calm tone, "In that case, let's go together. Sisters should support and take care of each other."
Lan Qingjia immediately became happy, smiling so hard that her eyes were crooked, "Thank you, grandma."
The old lady looked at Lan Qingjia, her originally tense expression finally softened a bit.
Lan Qingwan felt that the old lady's attitude towards her was a little different, and this difference was all because of Lan Qingjia. She unconsciously clenched her fists secretly, feeling extremely hateful in her heart.
Lan Qingjia sat back in her seat. Because she had achieved her goal, Lan Qingjia was in a good mood.
Especially when she saw Lan Qingwan's disheveled look, Lan Qingjia felt even better.
After all, Lan Qingwan is still young now and has no future plans or plans. Even if she tries her best to hide it, she can't hide the anger on her face and can no longer pretend to be the good sister she used to be.
Lan Qingjia thought, where did this go? She was so angry now, what would she do in the future?
Birthday gifts were given to the family members, and it was already getting late. Guests gradually came to the door. Everyone did not stay at the old lady's place any longer, and all went to the front yard to receive the guests.
Lan Qingwan finally found an opportunity and walked up to Lan Qingjia with an angry look on her face, "Sister, I didn't expect you to say that just now..."
Lan Qingjia immediately put on a more pitiful look, "Sister, I, I said the wrong thing...
I, I apologize to you, sister, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have revealed those words in front of my grandmother, I should have kept it a secret for you, I'm sorry..."
Lan Qingjia's voice was neither loud nor quiet, just enough to be heard by the people who had not yet had time to leave completely.
Lan Qingjia not only apologized verbally, but also took action neatly, bowing to Lan Qingwan repeatedly, as if she was trying to apologize.
Lan Qingwan was suffocating in her heart, but she was not yet dizzy. If she really asked Lan Qingjia to bow to her and apologize in public, would it be okay? Wouldn't it make people feel that she was bullying her even more?
She hurriedly reached out to help Lan Qingjia. The moment Lan Qingjia was lifted up by her, she unconsciously leaned towards her. She leaned close to Lan Qingwan's ear and said quickly in a voice that only the two of them could hear:
