Chapter 22 Ruthless_1

Guests gradually arrived at the Qian family's home, but as soon as Old woman Qian came, she first went into the room to take a look at her great-grandson and didn't even glance at her great-granddaughter. Then, satisfied, she went out to greet the guests. She was the only one, besides Lady Wu and Qian Manxia, allowed to enter the room to see the children.

Qian Sangui and Lady Wu still would not let Cheng Yue out of the room, using the excuse that she was timid and did not dare to meet strangers, nor would they allow others in to see her. People even thought that because Lady Cheng was foolish and her face resembled a white cloth smeared with bird droppings, the Qians were too embarrassed to let her appear and disgrace them in public.

The villagers spoke loudly, their conversations sounding like quarrels. Little Yixiu was somewhat frightened and began to cry whimpers and whimpers, so her little mother picked her up to comfort her.
