Chapter 155 Please Don't Talk Too Much 3
The moment Su Su saw Xu Jinyan, Xu Jinyan still maintained the same enthusiastic demeanor he had shown to the original owner of this body.
Unlike the original owner, Su Su merely nodded indifferently, then softly greeted Aunt Su with "Hello, Aunt," her lips curving upwards into a sweet smile.
Xu Jinyan seemed oblivious to the subtle change in Su Su's attitude, or perhaps she pretended not to notice; her face remained beaming with a warm smile.
He was extremely attentive, personally serving tea and water to Su Su with natural and fluid movements, as if he were the owner of the house, without any distinction between host and guest.
Su Su accepted Xu Jinyan's service with a calm smile. She took the teacup and said softly to Xu Jinyan, "Thank you."
His tone was flat and calm, without the slightest ripple, as if he were treating a nanny who had come to help the master's family greet guests, taking her service for granted.
Su Su's attitude filled Xu Jinyan with an indescribable sense of frustration.
Aunt Su, who was sitting to the side, keenly noticed something amiss. She quickly gestured for Xu Jinyan, who was standing there blankly, to sit down, trying to ease the slightly awkward atmosphere.
Xu Jinyan sat down and then began to enthusiastically recount the interesting stories of her family.
He spoke animatedly, recounting all the embarrassing things his parents had done without reservation, even including the trivial details of their nightly arguments.
Aunt Su sat quietly to the side, nodding in response from time to time, with a polite smile on her face.
During her narration, Xu Jinyan intentionally or unintentionally ignored Su Su's presence.
Su Su didn't mind at all. She just sat there quietly, staring intently at Xu Jinyan's mouth.
Her lips curved slightly, forming a meaningful arc, and a subtle, peculiar light flashed in her eyes.
Xu Jinyan continued to tell the story with great enthusiasm, successfully making Aunt Su burst into laughter from time to time.
But at that moment, Xu Jinyan seemed to suddenly lose control and blurted out, "Aunt Su, by the way, I heard you can't have children? Why is that? Is there something wrong with your health?"
Aunt Su's smiling face instantly froze, as if the smile had been frozen and quickly faded away.
Her hand unconsciously touched her stomach.
After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "It's nothing, it's just that our time hasn't come yet!"
However, Xu Jinyan did not let go of this sensitive topic. He continued to ask, "But I heard from the grandma downstairs that it's not a matter of fate, but a health problem!"
Upon seeing this, Su Su suddenly stood up and pointed her finger directly at Xu Jinyan's nose.
"Xu Jinyan, do you even know how to speak properly? If you don't, go back and learn how to speak before you come back."
Xu Jinyan was taken aback by Su Su's sudden scolding. She subconsciously touched her neck and put on an innocent expression.
"What did I do wrong? I think what I said was perfectly normal! Why did you say such awful things?"
In her view, she was just having a normal chat. She was only asking out of curiosity about Aunt Su's infertility and didn't understand why Su Su was so angry. She just felt extremely wronged.
And Aunt Su wasn't hurt at all, so why is she so agitated?
It's perfectly normal for people to satisfy their curiosity!
"You really……"
Su Su was utterly speechless.
Aunt Su's smile instantly froze, but she still forced herself to see Xu Jinyan out the door.
She then told Su Su to go back to her room to tidy up, and she turned around and went back to her room as well.
At this moment, Xu Jinyan, standing at the entrance to the detention center, was filled with remorse and kept blaming herself.
Why does my mouth talk so fast? Words just spill out without me even thinking.
She had meticulously planned everything, intending to at least get to know the person well before trying to find out anything. But now, everything has gone wrong.
"Sigh! Who would have thought it would turn out like this? I haven't even finished asking my gossip yet. Aunt Su is really too petty. I was just asking, it's not like I made up stories about her being unable to have children. I'm just stating the facts."
Xu Jinyan muttered to herself as she walked home.
When he returned home, his father was at home, while his mother was busy taking care of the business in the shop.
When Xu's father saw Xu Jinyan walk in, he frowned subconsciously and asked, "I haven't seen you since early this morning. Where have you been? How many times have I told you not to go out and ask about other people's news?"
Mr. Xu knew his daughter well; she had always been very curious and had a strong desire to peek into things. That was fine, but she also particularly liked to share what she heard with others.
If it's something she hasn't heard of, she has to get to the bottom of it and find out the truth. After finding out, she'll add her own embellishments and speculations.
Those who listen to her gossip don't care whether it's speculation or not; they treat it all as if it's true.
Just like before, Xu Jinyan heard from somewhere that the wife at the entrance of the village dressed up in fancy clothes every day, which was not like the way people lived in the village.
Moreover, Xu Jinyan had heard that his wife had a boyfriend before the marriage, so he assumed that she probably still had feelings for him.
So she first spoke ill of her daughter-in-law in front of her mother-in-law in the village, and after receiving some responses, she went to her daughter-in-law and talked about her mother-in-law's faults.
And so it went, disrupting the family's peace and making their lives like a palace intrigue every day.
Later, the family fell ill because of the mother-in-law's targeting. The daughter-in-law cried and wanted to take her sick child back to her parents' home. When the aunt took the initiative to apologize, she mentioned the reason, and only then did she realize that Xu Jinyan was the one who was behind it all.
So the family's sons came to their door, making the Xu family look bad both inside and out.
Fortunately, Xu's parents had already planned to move away from the village for Xu Jinyan's future, but the sons of that family came to make trouble and were not to be trifled with.
Although nothing serious happened this time, Mr. Xu was not as optimistic as Mrs. Xu.
He was constantly worried that his daughter would cause even bigger trouble, and he knew in his heart that this was not a problem that could be completely solved by moving.
Xu's father had a heart-to-heart talk with Xu Jinyan for a long time. Seeing Xu Jinyan's obedient appearance at the time, he thought she knew she had repented.
Unexpectedly, his good friend came to his door and gave him a severe scolding, saying that if he looked down on him, he could stop contacting him and there was no need to force himself to associate with him.
Xu's father was so confused by the scolding that he had to ask his brothers for help before he finally understood that Xu Jinyan had spread his drunken complaints.
Although I didn't tell my best friend directly, he still found out after going through a long and roundabout way.
Xu's father was both angry and anxious at the time. He had already hit and scolded him, and the brotherly affection had become much weaker as a result. However, Xu Jinyan felt extremely wronged.
She felt that her straightforward personality and lack of secrets made her wonder why everyone had so many opinions about her.
Especially one's own parents, isn't being straightforward and honest a virtue?
They had praised her before!
Nowadays, Xu's parents are extremely cautious when interacting with Xu Jinyan. They rarely discuss important matters or words with her face to face.
In particular, he kept the bank card passwords, which involved crucial family financial information, completely secret from her.
The mere mention of the bank card password caused Mr. Xu's blood pressure to spike, and he almost lost control of his anger, grabbing a broom to give Xu Jinyan a good beating on the bottom.
Xu Jinyan has a younger cousin whose hobby is playing games.
Fortunately, he wasn't the kind of kid who acted impulsively and recklessly spent money on games.
Instead, before making any in-game purchases, I would always ask my parents for their permission and only act after receiving their consent.
That New Year, my cousin's bank card inexplicably lost tens of thousands of yuan. His father assumed that his cousin had spent the money on games, and naturally, he was severely punished.
It wasn't until he was beaten and crying his eyes out that the younger cousin tearfully confessed that he hadn't actually deposited any money; he had simply given his bank card PIN to his older cousin, Xu Jinyan.
Later, Xu's parents specifically asked Xu Jinyan about the situation. Xu Jinyan thought about it carefully for a long time before speaking with a face full of regret and self-blame.
She didn't know when, but during a casual conversation with someone, she let slip that her cousin's bank card PIN had been revealed.
She couldn't remember who she had told it to, only that she had caused a huge disaster.
It was Xu's parents who paid the money back.
