84: Chapter 83: The Miser Lays an Egg 84: Chapter 83: The Miser Lays an Egg After being lectured by the old lady, Xu Erhong didn’t mind at all and cheerfully said, “Mom’s right, our Xu family has produced a talented individual.”
Xu Niannian glanced at her grandma in surprise and noticed the old lady glancing significantly at her second aunt, instantly understanding.
It turned out the old lady was speaking for Liu Guii to hear.
This old lady was really a sly fox, giving a beating but also a sweet jujube, never forgetting to do her ideological work.
Previously, Niannian thought the old lady and Yang Cuihua were cut from the sa cloth, but now she realized she was wrong.
It seed the old lady was much savvier than her own mother.
Just as Niannian was thinking of her mother, speak of the devil, and she shall appear.
“Mom, I’m here, hurry and open the door for .”
The voice of Yang Cuihua could be heard from far away.
Niannian felt a pang of anxiety.
Her mother couldn’t possibly be here to ask for things, could she?
No sooner had the thought crossed her mind than Yang Cuihua entered, the door opened by Xu Sisi.
Yang Cuihua was seen holding a large slab of pork with layers of fat and lean at.
“Ah, Baby Nian?
What brought you here?” Yang Cuihua was also surprised to see Xu Niannian.
Hearing her say this, Xu Niannian imdiately understood that Yang Cuihua didn’t yet know she had co here.
“I ca to bring grandma so things,” Xu Niannian said vaguely.
Yang Cuihua’s eyes quickly fixed on the delicacies on the table, leaving no doubt in her mind.
When Niannian saw Yang Cuihua staring intently at the items on the table, she instantly panicked.
What should she do now?
But Yang Cuihua rely glanced at them before withdrawing her gaze, not saying much.
She brought the pork over to the table and said to the old lady with a smile, “Mom, this is the pork Baby Nian has contributed to honor you, as well as her second uncle and aunt.”
The pork was sent by the Jin Yu family as a betrothal gift.
Such a large piece, it was almost ten pounds of at.
Xu Niannian watched Yang Cuihua in amazent.
Goodness gracious, the stingy chicken laid an egg.
Ah, spit, that’s not right.
How could I speak about my own mother so?
Not only was Niannian shocked, but Xu Erhong and Liu Guii were equally astonished.
Xu Sisi, the outspoken girl, blurted out, “Great-aunt, the sky must be falling red rain, for you to be so generous.
Could that pork be poisoned?”
Everyone was rendered speechless…
Yang Cuihua spat out in annoyance, “You little Black Coal Ball, always jumping into conversations.
Go and do your howork.
If you’re not as pretty as your sister, you have to study hard, else no man will want you.”
That left Sisi speechless…
Her face turned red with anger as she stamped her foot, “I’m still young, I don’t want to think about n.”
Yang Cuihua retorted, “What do you an young?
When your grandma was your age, your uncle had already been born.”
The old lady gave a fierce slap on Yang Cuihua’s back, making the flesh tremble.
“You blabbermouth, can’t you watch your words around children?”
“Pfft!” Niannian almost burst into laughter but managed to contain herself in ti.
Yang Cuihua wasn’t offended either, busying herself with the words, “Child, you all hurry up and cure that pork, don’t let it go bad later.
This is the child’s kind gesture.
Our Niannian said she’s grateful for how good her grandma and second uncle and aunt have been to her, and she will make sure to honor you in the future.”
Those words moved the old lady and Xu Erhong so much, while Liu Guii felt so ashad she wished she could burrow into a hole.
As for Niannian, she just looked bewildered at her mother spinning tales.
When had she ever said such things?
Watching her mother talk non-stop, praising her in all kinds of ways, Niannian’s face flushed with the flattery.
It was truly mortifying!
The family was there, talking and laughing, when unexpectedly, soone else arrived.
It was none other than Auntie Xu, who didn’t get along with Yang Cuihua.
“Well, look at the whole family having such a good ti, what’s the occasion for celebration?” Auntie Xu waddled in, her hips swaying.
