Chapter 517: 141: Dominance Teaches How to Be a Human, Traveling Abroad_3
“I’ve learned a bit of martial art,” Ni Yang answered truthfully.
“Good, good,” Lady Shangguan nodded in approval, “it’s indeed good for a girl to learn so self-defense skills. I’ll have Xiaoxi start learning it when we get back ho.”
Ni Yang smiled and nodded.
Lady Shangguan continued, “That mother-daughter duo just now was really troubleso. Anyone who marries such a girl would be bringing misfortune upon his family!”
“Indeed quite troubleso,” Ni Yang added, “I had a feeling that girl was targeting , but I’ve never even t her before. It’s really strange.”
“I think they did it on purpose! Snobbish bitches. Just because they have a bit of money, they start acting as if they’re from the high and mighty!” Lady Shangguan’s impression of Lin Fang and Chang Yue couldn’t have been worse.
After all, it was the first ti in her life that she had co across such outrageous people.
“The dress from before is available here too. Do you want to buy it?” Ni Yang pointed to an identical dress.
“No need. Who would want to wear the sa clothing as those types of people? Yangyang, let’s choose sothing different!”
“Alright.” Ni Yang nodded slightly.
This ti Ni Yang chose a noblewoman’s dress for Mrs. Mo, complented by a co-ordinating silk scarf.
It must be stated, Ni Yang had a discerning eye. After Mrs. Mo put on this dress, she looked several years younger, her elegance radiating.
“Yangyang, is it pretty?” Lady Shangguan twirled around like a child.
“Yes, like an elderly empress dowager,” Ni Yang seriously complinted.
Laughing, Lady Shangguan replied, “You’re always making up stories to indulge .”
“I’m telling the truth.”
Lady Shangguan happily went to pay the bill.
Just as Lin Fang and Chang Yue got ho, a distinguished guest arrived.
This person was Lin Guihua, Lin Fang’s aunt. Since she married well at an early age, she was now considered a semi-high society mber and everyone called her Auntie Lin.
Why only a semi-high society mber?
Because her husband’s financial standing pale in comparison to half of the other high society mbers, and that is why she’s so keen on playing matchmaker. Once a match is made, their family gains the support of two more dependable families.
Fortunately, the high society due lacked this profession; real high society ladies would not be willing to stoop to playing matchmaker and being subjected to others’ orders.
“Auntie’s here.” Lin Fang courteously welcod Auntie Lin into the house.
Even the usually arrogant and domineering Chang Yue greeted, “Hello, auntie grandma.”
“Good, good.” Auntie Lin nodded in satisfaction, “Xiaoyue is getting prettier as she grows, she’ll definitely be successful in the future.”
A hint of complacency appeared at the corner of Chang Yue’s mouth.
Lin Fang said, “Look at this child, she knows nothing. Hurry up and thank your auntie grandma!”
Chang Yue promptly said, “Thank you, auntie grandma.”
Auntie Lin continued, “But what happened to your face? Lin Fang, did you hit her?”
Upon hearing this, a hint of malice flickered in Chang Yue’s eyes.
All because of that bitch, Ni Yang!
Lin Fang nonchalantly answered, “How could I hit her? She bumped into a wall by herself.”
“Oh,” Auntie Lin continued, “you’ll soon be going to the Shangguan family to be recognized as a relative, it’s better not to have any injuries on your face. The wealthy families pay great attention to appearances.”
“Auntie, don’t worry, I’m aware of that.” Looking at Chang Yue, Lin Fang continued, “Hurry and pour so tea for your auntie grandma.”
“Alright.”
Lin Fang pulled out a chair, “Auntie, please sit.”
Her chances of marrying into the Shangguan family greatly increased thanks to Auntie Lin. Without her introducing the match, where else could she have such an opportunity?
At this mont, Lin Fang would happily put Auntie Lin on a pedestal and worship her like a Bodhisattva.
Because her mother-in-law looked down upon her, Auntie Lin usually had to suffer in their family. Only here, with Lin Fang, could she experience what it felt like to be important.
Auntie Lin laughed and said, “Lin Fang, there’s no need to be so courteous, we’re family.”
“Auntie, did you co over because there’s sothing you need to tell ?” Lin Fang asked.
“Mmm.” Auntie Lin nodded, “Lin Fang, you’re going to the Shangguan house to be recognized as a relative in two days. Have you prepared any gifts for Lady Shangguan?”
“Don’t worry, I’ve prepared everything.”
“That’s good.” Auntie Lin continued, “Lin Fang, the Shangguan family is not an ordinary one. After you get there, be sure to watch your behaviour and speech. You have already won over Shangguan Dehui, so now all you have to do is please Lady Shangguan. Lady Shangguan, being from Jiangnan, loves sweet foods. You should use this opportunity to show off your culinary skills.”
