When the guests on the stage heard Xu Zixi mention Ji Xinyue, they couldn't help whispering.
"Are Yuan Ya'er and Ji Xinyue good friends?"
"I remember their relationship was really good."
"The Ji family are all a bunch of scumbags. Yuan Ya'er is friends with Ji Xinyue. Can't she know what kind of person Ji Xinyue is?"
"Who knows..."
Now in Fengcheng, who doesn't know the scandals that the Ji family has exposed, and who doesn't know that Ji Xinyue is a bad woman with a low moral character. Yuan Ya'er can be good friends with her and still receive the wedding gift given by Ji Xinyue. Does this mean that birds of a feather flock together? Maybe Yuan Ya'er is the same as Ji Xinyue, not as simple as it seems on the surface?
The fragments of the discussion on the stage reached her ears. Seeing that the image she had painstakingly maintained was in jeopardy, Yuan Ya'er immediately replied:
"Sister Xiaoxi, I have already cut off my relationship with Ji Xinyue. She is not a good person. Don't go to see her again in the future. It's not good for your reputation."
Xu Zixi said indifferently: "Really? It seems that I have been away from Fengcheng for too long and my news is too lagging behind. By the way, aren't you all curious why I hit you?"
As soon as these words came out, Yuan Ya'er and the people around her couldn't help but take a breath, for fear that she or the tall and strong bodyguard beside her would attack Yuan Ya'er again.
Yuan Ya'er timidly hid behind Yan Zhen: "Sister Xiaoxi, is there something I did wrong that made you angry? You can tell me and I can change it."
"Because of this address." Xu Zixi smiled, "You shouldn't call me 'Sister Xiaoxi', you should call me 'Aunt Xiaoxi'."
As she said, she raised her hand to brush the hair beside her ear, and the dazzling diamond ring on her finger was completely impossible to ignore.
"I thought that with your intelligence, after I slapped you twice, you would understand. But it seems that you still haven't reacted. Then you called me 'Sister Xiaoxi' nine more times. Ya'er, you have been back in the Yuan family for so many years. Hasn't the Yuan family taught you the etiquette of addressing people correctly? However, considering that you are getting married today, I will owe you these nine slaps first. I will collect them slowly in the future."
"But you have to remember that you must not call me wrong again in the future. Otherwise, I will slap you once I hear it, until you have a long memory. Do you understand?"
Seeing the look of fear flashing across Yuan Ya'er's face, Xu Zixi was satisfied.
"Okay, I have brought the gift and blessing. It's time for me to give the stage to you. Continue your wedding."
After saying that, she was about to turn around and leave, but Yuan's mother rushed towards her and said in a very sharp voice: "What 'Aunt Xiaoxi'? You make it clear!"
A Qiang blocked the crazy Yuan's mother, and Xu Zixi said lightly: "Yan Zhen only has one uncle. What do you think?"
Yuan's mother was hysterical:
"Yuan Xi, you are so vicious! In order to retaliate against Ya Ya, you actually climbed up to Yan Zhen's uncle so shamelessly! You still blame us for forcing you to marry Mr. Guan back then. You don't hesitate to humiliate the Yuan family and Ya Ya in this way today, right? I really didn't expect you to become like this! Where did you put the upbringing I gave you for more than ten years? Do you think the Yan family will let you, a shameless slut, marry into their family as a daughter-in-law? Do you think Mr. Yan San will take a fancy to you? Don't dream!"
At this time, I saw a very unexpected figure walking onto the stage and walking in front of Xu Zixi. Under the dreamy and romantic lights of the stage, Ms. Yin Shulan's expression was extremely calm:
"Qin Qiuxuan, please keep your mouth clean. She is the daughter-in-law I, Yin Shulan, recognize. I will not allow you to humiliate her in public like this."
Yan Yun never expected that her family would get involved in it, and she didn't want the always cold Yin Shulan to stand up to protect Xu Zixi without hesitation. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh, grandma is so handsome when she says this!"
What surprised her even more was that her grandfather also stood up from the chair with the help of a walking stick and said: "Yes, the Yan family only recognizes this one daughter-in-law."
His voice was neither too loud nor too small, but it was enough for everyone in the banquet hall to hear.
Whether it was the people of the Yuan family or the guests on the scene, they were all shocked by this scene.
I've only heard of people rushing to marry their daughters, but I've never seen people rushing to recognize their daughters-in-law like this. Not to mention that it was the Yan family, the Yan family in Fengcheng! And who is that woman?! She is Yan Zhen's former fiancée! The fake daughter of the Yuan family! Her real background is just an ordinary working-class family!
She appeared at the wedding without any care, slapped the bride twice on the stage, and said so many inexplicable things. She clearly intended to ruin this wedding, but the Yan family actually planned to protect her? What's wrong with this world?
However, the most confusing operation was the Yuan family. Although Yuan Xi was an adopted daughter, if both the biological daughter and the adopted daughter married into the Yan family, wouldn't it bring greater benefits to the Yuan family? Instead of trying to get along well with the adopted daughter quickly, they actually joined hands to push the adopted daughter out. They only cared about their biological daughter wholeheartedly. Did the biological daughter cast a spell on them?
The sudden statement of the Yan family made Yuan's mother's face turn pale. She was unable to argue with the Yan family and tried to persuade the child she had raised since childhood who was protected behind Yin Shulan and A Qiang:
"Xiaoxi, listen to your mother. There are so many young talents in Fengcheng. You can marry anyone you want. Your mother can satisfy you. Just don't marry into the Yan family. Your mother is begging you. You took Ya Ya's identity and stayed with us for more than ten years. We owe Ya Ya too much. She deserves the best marriage in this world. In the future, you will let her call you Aunt Xiaoxi. Isn't this stabbing a knife in her heart and in your mother's heart? You just let her go, okay?"
Xu Zixi laughed. She was really amused by these words.
"Let? Ms. Qin, I must correct you. It is you who owe Yuan Ya'er, not me. Eighteen years ago, it was you who took the wrong child in the hospital. It was your own mistake, but it turned out that I had to pay for it. Where is the reason for this in the world? You said that I took Yuan Ya'er's identity, but if you want me to be the daughter of the Yuan family, have you ever asked me if I was willing? Also, I have no blood relationship with you. Please don't call yourself mother to me in the future."
"Shut up! Is this how you talk to your mother?" Yuan Tianlei scolded from the stage, "Even if there is no blood relationship, she has raised you for eighteen years! Legally, she is still your mother! She has the right to decide your marriage!"
The Xu couple also jumped out to show their presence and said: "Even if you don't want to listen to the Yuan family, we are your biological parents. We always have the right to make requests to you, right? We don't allow you to marry into the Yan family. We don't allow you to be Ya'er's aunt! Come back to Xingcheng with us. We will arrange a blind date for you immediately!"
Look, these two pairs of parents. One pair feels that they owe their biological daughter and want to make up for it. The other pair is completely partial to the adopted daughter because of the eighteen years of nurturing. At this moment, even Xu Zixi can't help but feel a sense of desolation.
If Yuan Xi was still here, she would probably be panicked and not know what to do except to escape. Taking a deep breath, Xu Zixi said clearly:
"Mr. Yuan, don't you forget that my household registration relationship is no longer in the Yuan family. I have no relationship with the Yuan family for a long time."
