greedy wife hard to coax

237. Disappointed

As soon as Jian Xiaoqi walked in, she poked her head to look in, but her sight was blocked, and the living room was so quiet that she didn't know what was going on inside.

At this time, Butler Mao whispered something to her: "Miss, you should talk well when you see Madam later, Madam seems to be a little angry."

As he spoke, Butler Mao raised his head and glanced upstairs, hinting that Madam is upstairs now, and asked her to take the initiative later.

Jian Xiaoqi's scalp was numb from the housekeeper's gaze, "Well, my mother is still angry?"

When she was on the road just now, she was worried that she would be shut down when she went home, but the words of Steward Ma confirmed her guess, and she felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

Seeing her depressed mood, Butler Mao didn't want to say much, just nodded: "No, you've been out for more than two weeks, and it's fine if you don't come back, why don't you even have a phone call, madam..."

No need to ask, Jane's mother must be angry and disappointed!
Jian Xiaoqi knew it was her negligence, and lowered her head guiltily: "Actually, I didn't do it on purpose, the main reason is that I forgot when I was busy..."

This reason is actually very lame. After all, Rong'an City is not small, but it is not big.If she really misses home, call the driver at home, won't someone pick her up?There is no need for her to move her feet!

It's a pity, she is just too careless!It's no wonder her mother is so angry. If it were Jian Xiaoqi herself, she would probably go crazy too!
Her emotions were all piled up on her face, butler Mao knew what was going on at a glance, and couldn't help scolding: "Miss, you are too careless—"

you do not say!Jian Xiaoqi touched her nose helplessly, then laughed a few times, shaking the snack in her hand: "Isn't that, I'm going to 'make up for it'~"

Dare to love her for this idea!
When Steward Mao heard what she said, he didn't take the bag of snacks for her, and even comforted her a few words: "Miss, hurry up and talk to Madam, Madam is soft-hearted and loves you, you will be fine!"

Jian Xiaoqi smiled with the corners of her mouth pulled, and said in her heart: This is the best!
"Well, then I'm going up!"

Watching Jian Xiaoqi's figure disappear at the top of the stairs, Butler Mao smiled in relief, then turned around and arranged for people to go out to prepare the ingredients.Although Madam didn't say anything, she was still thinking about Miss, and had already ordered the kitchen to prepare more dishes!
Today's autumn sun is just right, the entire south building of Jian Zhai is covered in bright sunlight, and the simple glass is also illuminated brightly, full of intoxicating warmth, especially on the open-air balcony on the second floor.

As soon as Jian Xiaoqi went upstairs, the light reflected from the balcony dazzled her eyes, and she quickly blocked it with her hand.

After she got used to the bright light, she slowly opened her eyes, and saw her mother sitting on the wooden wicker chair on the balcony, holding a book in her hand, and drinking a cup of tea on the coffee table beside her. Steaming tea.

"Mom, I'm back—"

After not seeing each other for such a long time, the intimacy of the blood bond became even stronger, so that the timidity in Jian Xiaoqi's heart dissipated a lot, so her voice became sweeter.

Unexpectedly, after she finished calling people, Jian's mother's place seemed to have disappeared.

"Mom?" Jian Xiaoqi yelled again.

Jian's mother still ignored her, and didn't even turn her head.Seen from behind, Fu Yi was holding a book and reading quietly, as if she didn't hear her little daughter's voice at all.

Seeing this posture, Jian Xiaoqi felt a "thump" in his heart: Oh no, it looks like he is very angry!

Jian Xiaoqi licked the corner of her lips with difficulty, walked over lightly, and put the snacks in her hands on the coffee table.Then, he carefully cleared his throat and dared to say hello again.

"Hey, mom, you are reading a book..."

Don't you ask this question knowingly?Rao was as calm as Jane's mother, and she was about to cry stupidly because of her nonchalant way of talking, so she raised her head and looked over with cold and serious eyes.

"What are you doing here?"

As soon as she said it, her indifferent tone choked back all the words Jian Xiaoqi had prepared, "Uh, I..."

Then, the scene fell into an awkward silence again.

Jian's mother read the book quietly again, the sun was warm and it was indeed very comfortable, but Jian Xiaoqi's heart was almost suffocated into an internal injury.She suddenly discovered that it seemed that these people around her always liked to use the method of "silence is better than sound at this time", which made her feel depressed every time.

What's more, this person is still her respected mother!

Jian Xiaoqi was taken aback by her mother's serious eyes just now, but now seeing her looking down at the book again, she felt a little discouraged.Unwilling to be treated like air, she hurriedly took out the snacks she bought from the coffee table, and leaned over them very flatteringly.

"Mom, don't you like the dim sum from 'Osmanthus Fragrance' the most? During my interview last time, I found out that their family has released a new product recently, so I bought some back. Would you like to try it?"

As he said that, he was about to open the package, but he was stopped by a pair of hands.

"Okay, you don't need to use these things to please me. Since you are so busy at work, you should go back and rest if you have nothing to do!"

Jian's mother was not very angry, but it was this light tone that made Jian Xiaoqi's heart ache as a daughter.Looking at the mother who has not been seen for two weeks, but is obviously haggard, the regret and self-blame in my heart are even worse.

"I'm sorry, Mom, I shouldn't have made you worry about me so much..."

Before the words fell, a teardrop fell first, not to mention Jian's mother, even Jian Xiaoqi herself was startled by the sudden tears.

Jian Xiaoqi herself also felt ashamed, and wanted to withdraw her tears, but she didn't realize it, the more she didn't want to cry, the more she shed tears!
Seeing that Jian's mother's face turned darker, Jian Xiaoqi still couldn't hold back her tears, so she could only explain in a whimpering way: "I, I didn't do this on purpose..."

Mother Jian obviously didn't believe it, she frowned and reprimanded her lightly: "Okay, why are you crying!"

Fu Yi is also a strong woman. Under her education, her children seldom cry, even the little girl who loves her the most.Because it was too unexpected, her comforting tone became a little rusty, and it sounded a bit like a reproach.

This is really a misunderstanding!
It became more and more chaotic, Jian Xiaoqi pointed to herself, and then to the box of snacks that had been put down, "Well, I didn't want to cry..." But the more she talked, the more joyously the tears flowed.

Jian Xiaoqi wiped it with her hands indiscriminately, but her eye sockets were still full of crystals, making her look even more pitiful with that little face.

"Ugh……"

After being teased by her like this, Jian's mother couldn't release her sulking anger before, so she had no choice but to take out a handkerchief and hand it over: "You are such a big person, why don't you cry all the time? Wipe it off—"

Jian Xiaoqi was so embarrassed that she took the paper towel handed over by her mother and wiped it twice, but because the action was too rough, Jian's mother finally couldn't stand it anymore.

"Why do you wipe your eyes so hard? It's easy to hurt your eyes!"

As she said that, Jian's mother took out another tissue, then moved Jian Xiaoqi's hand away, and wiped it for her herself, counting while wiping gently.

The soft tissues touched the corners of her eyes lightly, and Jian's mother's warm hands touched her from time to time, and Jian Xiaoqi suddenly felt the warmth of returning to her childhood, so comfortable that she didn't even want to open her eyes.

Then, she said something stupid in a daze: "Mom, I want to cry for a while..."

When Jian's mother heard the words, she patted her on the shoulder angrily, and said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about!" Then she withdrew her hand, threw the tissue, and still turned her face coldly.

The changes were so fast, it seemed that the warm scene just now was Jian Xiaoqi's own illusion!
But Jian Xiaoqi has long since lost her previous anxiety, and boldly wrapped her arms around Jane's mother and began to act coquettishly: "Mom, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean not to come back to see you, didn't I always want to get a regular job before, so I am busy writing manuscripts every day..."

Mother Jian was unmoved by what she said, and still pretended to ignore her.

Jian Xiaoqi rolled her eyes again, and continued to woo her: "I promise, I will come back often in the future, okay? Mom, don't be angry..."

Jian's mother moved a little bit, but she still didn't pretend to speak, which made Jian Xiaoqi almost lose her mind.Suddenly, her eyes fell on the box of snacks again, and she had an idea to pick it up again.

This time, she directly opened the package, then gently twisted a piece from the inside, dragged it on the ground with one hand, and then put it to Jane's mother's mouth, talking non-stop.

"Mom, come and taste this dim sum, it's fragrant but not overpowering, sweet but not greasy, it best represents my heart—"

When the snacks are taken out, a sweet smell of sweet-scented osmanthus hits the face.Mother Jian lowered her eyes, followed the little hand holding the dim sum carefully, to the expectant little face...

"You……"

After all, mother and daughter are connected, Jian's mother's heart softened, and she finally put the snack into her mouth.

Jian Xiaoqi was overjoyed, and looked at Jian's mother's expression nervously and expectantly. As soon as she swallowed it, she couldn't wait to ask: "How is it, is it delicious?"

Jian's mother was almost amused by her eagerness, she still pretended to savor it carefully, and said after a while: "Well, it's not bad."

Oye!After being affirmed, Jian Xiaoqi was overjoyed, and quickly handed over another piece: "Hey, I knew you liked it, so I have another piece——"

But this time, Jian's mother didn't eat, she shook her head: "Okay, I have to eat later, let's eat less!"

Jian Xiaoqi didn't force it, nodded, threw the piece of snack into her mouth, and said vaguely: "Oh, that's fine, anyway, if you like it, I will buy it for you often in the future!"

In such a short while, all barriers were eliminated, as if an iceberg met the warm sun and melted in an instant.

Jian Xiaoqi decided from the bottom of her heart that she would go home often to visit, but her words were regarded as a deliberate flattery.Therefore, Jian's mother gave her an angry look: "You are a busy person now, do you still have this time?"

This is completely blocking what Jian Xiaoqi said just now!

"Ahem..." Jian Xiaoqi almost choked on the pastry in his mouth, coughed several times, then raised his head, and was sneered at by Jian's mother's half-smile eyes.
