Chapter 1090 - 906 Slapping the Face_2
The voice of the Ji Family’s old madam was not small.It was loud enough for everyone present to clearly hear what she was saying.
This included the area separated by the screens.
That is, the group of young talents seated at the male guests’ section!
"Seventh Young Master, do you know what news the old madam wants to announce?"
Those who usually had no interaction with the Ji Family, but were eager to build a good relationship, all perked up their ears, waiting for Ji Youzhi to answer Lu Yunsheng’s question!
"No need to hurry, Young Master Lu, my mother will soon tell everyone the answer!"
Sure enough, as Ji Youzhi said this, the Ji Family’s old madam loudly announced.
"Everyone! This young girl is named Xie Pan’Er, she is a kind and gentle girl. From the first moment this old lady saw her, I liked her very much.
Today, I have called you all here! It is to be a witness for this old lady and Pan’Er!"
To be a witness for the Ji Family’s old madam and Xie Pan’Er?
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but look uniformly towards the Ji Family’s old madam and Xie Pan’Er.
"Old madam! I wonder what you mean by witness?
As far as we know, there are still four young masters in your residence who have not married, could it be that your witness means..."
"Madam Li, there’s no need to hurry, I will tell everyone now!"
The Ji Family’s old madam held Xie Pan’Er’s hand up, patted the back of her hand, and said with a smile: "This Pan’Er, I am very fond of her, so I thickened my face and discussed with her parents, deciding to adopt her as my goddaughter. From now on, she, Xie Pan’Er, will be our Ji Family’s Ninth Miss!"
As soon as the Ji Family’s old madam said this, everyone couldn’t help but draw in a cold breath.
"This... Ji... Ji Family’s Ninth Miss?"
Girls around the same age as Xie Pan’Er showed expressions of utter astonishment on their faces!
"I... I thought the Ji Family’s old madam took a liking to Xie Pan’Er and wanted her to be the old madam’s daughter-in-law?"
Someone teased loudly.
The Ji Family’s old madam chuckled softly, her smile kind and friendly.
"This old lady would love to have a beautiful and kind daughter-in-law like Pan’Er, but my sons are all too inferior, not worthy of our Pan’Er, so I can only adopt her as my goddaughter!
From now on, she is a girl of our Ji Family!"
As the old madam said this much, she turned to glance at Xiao Ning’Er and Shi Ning.
"Little girl from the Shi Family, little girl from the Xiao Family, Pan’Er is about the same age as you two, I hope you all can get along well in the future!"
Xiao Ning’Er and Shi Ning’s faces instantly darkened!
Their throats seemed to have fish bones stuck in them, like a bone in the throat!
"Who wants to be friends with her?
Don’t think that becoming a Ji Family’s girl means you can play with us daughters of officials!"
Xiao Ning’Er muttered indignantly, glancing at Xie Pan’Er.
Shi Ning immediately followed, muttering as well: "Wants to play with us?
How ridiculous, a sparrow is always a sparrow, even if it flies to the branch it stays a grey sparrow, really thinks of herself as a phoenix!"
"How can you talk like that to others!
My mother just said to play with Pan’Er, it’s just a polite remark, with your status, you’re not even worthy to carry shoes for our Pan’Er!"
Zhu Xiuxiu came over with a little maid, originally to serve the dishes.
In the Ji Family, the First Madam was pregnant and needed to rest in her room to protect the fetus.
Especially since Xiaosuisui used a special method to engrave an array with the large East Pearls, setting it in Wang Dongxue’s room, Wang Dongxue had been avoiding leaving her room as much as possible.
Ji Youyuan accompanied her, rarely stepping out as well.
Apart from Wang Dongxue, it was Huo Xing’Er who was too indifferent to manage banquets and such, so Zhu Xiuxiu handled all the banquet-related matters.
As a businesswoman skilled at dealing with all sorts of people, organizing banquets was simply second nature to Zhu Xiuxiu.
So while the Ji Family’s old madam was entertaining guests at the front, she arranged at the back, and when leading the maids to serve the dishes, she happened to hear what Shi Ning and Xiao Ning’Er said.
Thus, she couldn’t help but scold them back!
"Third... Third Madam!"
Hearing what Zhu Xiuxiu said, Xie Pan’Er felt very touched and ashamed.
She called out, almost timidly, "Third Madam!"
Zhu Xiuxiu came over, gave her a pat on the back, and said, "You’re now a girl of our Ji Family, shouldn’t you address me differently?"
