Chapter 345: 110: Grand Opening, Li Yanran’s Invitation_6
Zhou Xiaolian was afraid that Ni Yang hadn’t told Ni Cuihua about the matter, so she explained it all over again, and specially boasted about how capable her brother was, and that they were all from working families.
Ni Cuihua replied, “Big sister, thank you for your kindness. But I was born a peasant woman, I’m afraid I’m not match for your brother. Besides, I have no plans to remarry right now.”
Zhou Xiaolian didn’t get the rejection in Ni Cuihua’s words, and hastily said, “You are a match, a perfect match! As the old saying goes, ‘When marrying, marry a virtuous wife.’ Big sister, even though your personal condition is not as good as my brother’s, I can tell you are quite virtuous!”
It’s good that Ni Cuihua knows her worth and realizes she’s not a match for her brother.
Ni Cuihua continued, “I’m sorry, big sister, you should go find someone else.”
Zhou Xiaolian continued, “Big sister, you don’t need to worry about other issues. My mother may have a foul mouth, but she means well. Once you married into our family, just sit and enjoy your blessings.”
Ni Cuihua found Zhou Xiaolian to be too persistent, so she said bluntly, “Big sister, let me tell you the truth, I have no plans to remarry!” After that, Ni Cuihua turned and went into the shop.
This time, Zhou Xiaolian understood what Ni Cuihua meant.
So she thinks her brother is not good enough?
Huh!
What a big appetite!
A widow who nobody wanted, and she’s still so picky. She really thinks she can marry into a good family!
Zhou Xiaolian walked back to Ji Mudan with a complex expression.
Ji Mudan said, “Xiaolian, let me make it clear to you, firstly, I absolutely will not coax her. Secondly, I must make her apologize for her attitude just now! Otherwise, she can forget about marrying into our Zhou family in this lifetime.”
Zhou Xiaolian was also furious, she retorted, “You don’t allow her to marry in our family? She might not even want our family!” freewebnoveℓ.com
“What?” Ji Mudan widened her eyes in disbelief, “She’s picky about our family? Does she know what a working family is?”
Zhou Xiaolian sighed, “Mother, it’s not about whether you accept her or not now. Forget it, no use talking more, anyway, there’s absolutely no hope for this matter!”
Ji Mudan was furious upon hearing that Ni Cuihua didn’t fancy her son, “I was the one who didn’t fancy her first! Just a widow, can’t my son find whatever kind of girl he wants?”
“I’m sure that woman is just pretending she doesn’t like us because she’s afraid of losing face!”
Ji Mudan muttered angrily, she almost cursed Ni Cuihua’s ancestors.
Just then, Zhou Xiaolian saw something, “Mother, isn’t that my aunt?”
In the distance, a young man and a woman were helping an older woman with white hair towards Ni Yang’s noodle restaurant.
Ji Mudan immediately stopped muttering and looked over, “It is your aunt! Let’s go over and say hello.”
Ji Mudan changed her condescending attitude and became overly kind and affable as she walked to the trio, “Ah! Isn’t this my little aunt? What brings you here! Xiaolian’s shop is just nearby, I hope you, Xiaoxu, and Xixi can come and sit.”
Zhou Xiaolian followed behind her and said, “Aunt, I haven’t seen you for years, and Xiaoxu and Xixi too. Since you’re here today, you must dine at my place before you leave.”
With the mother and daughter being so enthusiastic, everyone could tell that this old lady was not an ordinary person.
In fact, the old lady was indeed extraordinary.
This old lady was the mother of Shangguan Dehui, and the grandmother of Shangguan Xu and Shangguan Xi.
The Shangguan Family was just like the Mo Family, both were prestigious families that had stood for centuries.
Shangguan’s old lady squinted slightly, “I’m sorry, as one grows old, the memory is not as good as before! May I ask who you are?”
The Zhou Family and the Shangguan Family were at best distant relatives. This distant relationship traced back to the sister of Shangguan’s old lady, whose son’s wife’s cousin’s sister-in-law’s daughter was related. So, it was normal that the old lady didn’t recognize Ji Mudan and her daughter.
Ji Mudan introduced herself formally.
Listening from the side, Shangguan Xu was afraid that Ji Mudan would suffocate from talking too much without being able to catch her breath.
Such a distant relationship, and they still dared to recognize relatives randomly, how audacious.
Indeed, poor people in a bustling city find no one paying attention to them, while the rich in the remote mountains have distant relatives.
After listening for half a day, Shangguan’s old lady still couldn’t figure out what relationship Ji Mudan and her daughter had with their family. She turned her head and looked at Shangguan Xu, “Little Xixi, let’s hurry up and get in line! I’m telling you, the noodles at this place are really delicious!”
She had seen too many people recognizing relatives out of nowhere, like the people in front of her.
The three of them walked towards the noodle restaurant.
Ji Mudan stepped forward and said, “Little aunt, noodles are not nutritious! Why don’t we go to Xiaolian’s shop, let her cook something delicious and serve you properly.”
Zhou Xiaolian quickly added, “Yes, auntie, let me cook something yummy, to serve you properly.”
The Shangguan Family was a true prestigious family, who wouldn’t want to be related to them?
Otherwise, would Ji Mudan be so humble?
Ever since she became a leader, Ji Mudan had never bent over. Today was the first.
Shangguan’s old lady calmly said, “The two of you, I am not your aunt. I do not know you, please do not follow us anymore.”
After saying that, the three of them went directly into the noodle restaurant and started lining up.
Ji Mudan sighed, “The old lady of such a big family is indeed different. She’s already so old, yet her mind is still so sharp.” If Shangguan’s old lady’s mind could be a little more muddled, maybe today she could have recognized her as her niece.
There were many people eating in the restaurant. Shangguan Xi said: “Grandma, brother, you line up here, I’ll go next door to buy milk tea. Brother, do you want fully sweetened or half sweetened?”
Shangguan Xu didn’t understand what full or half sweet meant for a moment. Shangguan Xi explained, “You like it sweeter or milder.”
Shangguan Xu said, “Half-sweetened is fine.”
“Xixi, I want a sweeter one…” Shangguan’s old lady looked at Shangguan Xi pitifully.
Shangguan Xi was quite determined: “Grandma, Dr. He said you have to eat less sweet!”
