Chapter 839 Why Am I Treating You This Way?
The cleaning was too troublesome if one were to cook it himself.
He had to wear plastic gloves, hold a toothbrush, and brush them carefully one by one.
He also had to prevent himself from getting hurt.
Yuan Keqing didn’t expect Tan Mo to be treated in this manner in the Old Mansion.
She was so familiar with everyone and had such a good relations.h.i.+p with everyone.
She even had a good relations.h.i.+p with the aunties and cooks. According to Wei Keren, the aunties and the cooks in this family treated Tan Mo the best. It was even better than the treatment Wei Keren, a member of the Wei family, received.
Of course, it was just that she didn’t know to what extent Wei Keren was trying to please Tan Mo.
Even Wei Zhijian and Li Xiangrong, who were sitting at the side, felt a little awkward.
Not to mention this time, even in the past, before they were disliked by the two old elders.
When they came, they also did not have the same treatment as Tan Mo.
The elders even had Chef w.a.n.g specially cook the dishes that Tan Mo liked.
The so-called ‘the seventh-grade official in front of the prime minister’s door’.
These words were also applicable to the Old Mansion.
The people of the Old Mansion had all been working here for many years.
From a duration of several years to more than 10 years, or even to tens of years.
Chef w.a.n.g and Aunt Zhang were both old people of the Old Mansion.
The people of the Wei family didn’t have much respect for these people who worked in the Old Mansion, but at least on the surface, they didn’t dare to offend them.
It was because they were the people who spent the most time with the two elders.
Since they were usually in the Old Mansion, they spent all day with the two elders.
The two elders also liked to chat with them.
If they offended these people, what would they do if they took the opportunity to speak ill of them?
Therefore, Wei Zhijian and Li Xiangrong had always been polite to the people in the Old Mansion. But they had never received treatment like Tan Mo’s.
Not even one-tenth of it.
Yuan Keqing was thinking about how the two elders had treated her coldly before Tan Mo arrived.
The two elders didn’t raise any objections when she was together with Wei Keli.
But Yuan Keqing could tell that it wasn’t because they accepted her.
She had a feeling that no matter who Wei Keli was together with, the two elders wouldn’t have any objections.
It was as if… as if they didn’t care who Wei Keli was together with, and they didn’t care about Wei Keli at all.
In their eyes, there was no such person as Wei Keli.
Yuan Keqing was a little fl.u.s.tered.
She must have thought too much. No matter what had happened to Wei Keli, he was still a member of the Wei family.
The two elders would not be so heartless towards Wei Keli.
However, she never expected the two elders to treat Tan Mo so well.
Before Tan Mo came, the two elders did not take the initiative to ask her questions to understand her.
She was the one who took the initiative to start a topic.
The two elders would not ignore her, and would still answer her and talk to her.
But they were always not so familiar with her.
It was a kind of ‘you ask, I answer’ feeling.
Yuan Keqing did not know that it was the two elders’ politeness that had caused them to not ignore her even if they did not like her.
When she started a topic and asked a question, the two elders would still answer her.
But only when Tan Mo came would the two elders be truly happy.
Yuan Keqing watched coldly from the side and snorted indignantly in her heart. Tan Mo was a grown-up now, yet she still acted like a little girl. She wasn’t ashamed at all.
She watched from the side and felt like vomiting.
“Cousin Sister,” Yuan Keqing called out.
She felt that if she didn’t speak, Tan Mo would very likely pretend that she didn’t see her.
Tan Mo must have deliberately ignored her and humiliated her.
After all, she was sitting here alone. How could Tan Mo not see her?
Sure enough, after she opened her mouth, Tan Mo seemed to realize that Yuan Keqing was also there. She turned around in surprise.
It was as if on her way here, she had never heard that Yuan Keqing, who had come as Wei Keli’s fiancée, was also here.
“Yuan Keqing? Why are you here?” Tan Mo sounded surprised. Moreover, the way she addressed her was like she was unfamiliar with her, and even with some coldness and dislike.
Compared to Yuan Keqing’s way of addressing her as ‘Cousin Sister’, the difference in their att.i.tude was like heaven and earth.
“Cousin Sister…” Yuan Keqing cried out sadly, “Why are you …” “Why am I treating you this way, right?” Tan Mo looked at Yuan Keqing coldly.
Yuan Keqing was speechless.
Why did Tan Mo take over her sentence?
For such a scenario, weren’t people usually remain silent?
For such a scenario, it wasn’t appropriate for Tan Mo to say anything.
If Tan Mo gave her a cold shoulder, it was inevitable that she would leave the impression of a mean family member in front of the elders.
However, if Tan Mo were to cooperate with her, she would fall into her trap and have to accompany her to act the entire time.
Yuan Keqing was very clear about this.
However, she did not expect Tan Mo to choose the first type of reaction.
But it was also not the entire first type of reaction.
No matter what, with her being so mean, wasn’t she afraid that the Wei family elders would think that she was arrogant?
After successfully being together with Wei Zhiqian, she had achieved her goals and was incomparably arrogant.
“Cousin Sister,” Yuan Keqing’s face stiffened for a moment, and then she put on a cautious smile as if she was a poor little girl who was bullied by Tan Mo. “Why are you treating me this way? It wasn’t so in the past.”
Yuan Keqing looked at the two elders carefully.
All her little actions implied that Tan Mo wasn’t behaving this way in the past, but why was it so now?
Wasn’t it because she was together with Wei Zhiqian? She now felt that she had someone to rely on, so she didn’t take her seriously anymore!
“Indeed, I didn’t treat you this way in the past,” Tan Mo smiled slightly. “But you slandered my mother in front of everyone and said that she treated you harshly. After you thought that you had met a more powerful friend, you came to my house to show off and wanted me to become your friend’s sidekick. Later, when I was taking the college entrance examination, you told me that Brother Zhiqian was injured and tried to sabotage my college entrance examination. Later, when you were taking the college entrance examination, Brother Zhiqian retaliated with a tooth for a tooth and caused you to miss a subject. Then, you came to my house to scold me for being vicious. You were thinking that even though my college entrance examination was affected, my results weren’t. Thus I shouldn’t hold a grudge against you.
“After you failed the college entrance exam, you wanted me to look for Princ.i.p.al Mu to allow you to enter Beijing University through back door. When my eldest brother was filming the first season of Broken Continent, your family didn’t show up when he couldn’t get any investors. After the popularity of Broken Continent, you guys showed up again and asked my eldest brother to a.s.sign you an important role in the second season. You even said that you had invested in my eldest brother for the sake of being our relatives.
“Not to mention the bad things you said about me behind me,” Tan Mo said with a faint smile.
However, Yuan Keqing felt that this smile was somehow sarcastic.
“What good att.i.tude do you expect from me after all these?” As for Yuan Keqing, when she had just met Wei Keli, she had been scheming against her in front of him and saying bad things about her behind her.
Tan Mo did not say anything else.
She did not want Wei Keli to think that she was still thinking about him, and she treated Yuan Keqing indifferently and even hated her because of him.
