Chapter 13 The old lady’s trick

The nearly ninety-year-old man's skin and flesh are saggy, and the facial features of his youth are no longer visible. She pressed her skinny hand against her chest, as if she was going to die in the next moment.

Xu Wenzong felt that he had thought too much.

How could a person of Mrs. Huo's status come to the store in person...

He was afraid that Xu Yin would be touched by the old man, so he said seriously to Xu Nange: "Okay, your sister is doing it for your own good. As for such a big reaction? Isn't it shameful to make trouble here?"

The little old lady immediately looked at Xu Nange: "Granddaughter-in-law, is this your father?"

Xu Nange narrowed his eyes.

The title "Dad" was unfamiliar to her, and her feelings for him were very complicated.

When she was a child in the Xu family, Li Wanru wouldn't let her get close to Xu Wenzong.

As a little girl, she hid in the darkness and secretly looked up at him, watching him smile at Xu Yin, watching him lift Xu Yin up and spin around, his tall figure like a savior.

So during the countless days and nights when she was beaten by Li Wanru and not allowed to eat, she imagined that "daddy" would fall from the sky and hold her out of the sea of ​​suffering, even once.

but no.

He never cared about her, and when they met occasionally, he only told her to "listen to mother more"...

The Xu family's relationship with each other is very strange. It seems that they all accept Li Wanru's existence, but except for Mrs. Xu, no one is willing to accept her as a little girl...

Xu Nange pursed his lips and did not answer the old lady's words.

She looked at the clothes she had just tried on, took out a barely acceptable one and handed it to the waiter, preparing to pay and leave.

Seeing this, Xu Wenzong said: "I know you have no money, so I will pay for this dress and treat it as a gift to my in-laws' grandma."

Xu Yin suddenly spoke, "Dad, I just went shopping and found that this dress in the whole store is the most suitable for giving gifts..."

The waiter next to him immediately smiled and said: "Miss, you have such good taste. This piece is purely hand-embroidered. It is the only one in the whole sea city. Maybe you can look at something else..."

When Xu Wenzong heard this, his eyes lit up: "Then choose this one!"

He looked at Xu Nange: "This dress is for your sister. You can choose another one."

Xu Nange's peach blossom eyes were filled with unclear emotions: "Why?"

"Your sister is going to visit the Huo family. This is a gift for Mrs. Huo!"

"So I have to give it to her?"

Xu Wenzong scolded: "Can't your husband and grandma, a little old lady, just wear whatever she wants? Can she be more important than Mrs. Huo?"

Xu Nange’s attitude was firm: “No.”

"Can't you be more sensible? Do you have to compete with your sister?!"

Xu Nange found it funny. She didn't understand why she was competing with Xu Yin when she was obviously interested in this dress first.

Xu Wenzong said again: "Let's do this. This dress is fifty thousand, and I will give you two hundred thousand, which will also be considered as supplement for your wedding dowry."

Xu Yin said hypocritically: "Nan Ge, you haven't found a job since graduation. Please promise dad quickly. Don't give up such a big benefit just to vent your anger on me. You will regret it later."

Xu Wenzong finally threatened: "Think about it carefully. If you insist on choosing this one, I will not help you pay."

As expected of a veteran in the business world, he used threats and inducements just to buy Xu Yin a piece of clothing.

What a good father...

Xu Nange was too lazy to argue with them anymore. Just as he was about to take out his bank card to pay, the little old lady who had been silent suddenly held her hand down: "My granddaughter-in-law, I don't want this. It doesn't look good."

Xu Nange looked at her: "Grandma, the rest are not suitable for you."

The little old lady was very stubborn: "Then I won't give in."

She has already bought all the suitable clothes for this season! She picked out all the leftovers in the store, how could there be anything she liked?

And listening to their conversation, grandson’s daughter-in-law bought this dress and planned to give it to Mrs. Huo?

Mrs. Huo, it sounds so familiar...

Who are you?

The little old lady was a little confused.

Seeing this, Xu Nange didn't dare to persist anymore, and followed her wishes and said, "Then I won't buy it."

Only then was Xu Wenzong satisfied: "You are so sensible, why do you still need to waste so much talk? If you can't afford it in the future, don't just enter such a store, lest you be seen by acquaintances and lose the Xu family's face!"

Xu Yin also sneered.

I just sang harmony with the old lady, and the performance seemed real.

It’s not like I don’t have money to buy it!

She asked the waiter to pack the clothes, and then looked at Xu Nange: "Thank you for letting me. When I marry into the Huo family, I will help you and your husband find a good job."

Xu Nange ignored her at all and prepared to leave with the old lady.

"etc!"

Xu Wenzong stopped her and handed her a check: "You'd better take this two hundred thousand. The dowry agreed upon for you can also supplement your life."

Xu Nange was slightly stunned: "That's not necessary."

"Are you too little? The Xu family company belongs to Yin Yin's mother, and will only be left to Yin Yin in the future. This is the most I can give you!"

Xu Wenzong said as if he was giving alms: "With these two hundred thousand, you and your husband can set up a small stall to make a living. From now on, you can live your life properly. Don't expect extravagant things that don't belong to you!"

Xu Nange had just thought that Xu Wenzong had some fatherly love for her, but now she only felt ridiculed: "What doesn't belong to me?"

"For example, visiting a shopping mall like this, or...you trying to seduce Mr. Huo!"

Xu Wenzong warned: "You are seeking your own death, and don't bring trouble to our Xu family! Today, the clerk did not dare to provoke an old lady of this age, so he did not care about you. If Mr. Huo was angered, it was not because this old lady was playing tricks. It will put an end to the trouble!"

Xu Nange gave up completely: "Don't worry, I have nothing to do with your Xu family for a long time!"

She left without looking back.

After walking away, the little old lady held her hand and said, "My grandson, your father and your sister are really bad. Let my grandson protect you from now on. I guarantee that no one will dare to look down on you!"

Xu Nange felt warm in his heart: "Okay."

The little old lady said angrily: "Give those ugly clothes to the Mrs. Huo they mentioned, I don't want them!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the old lady's cell phone rang.

She answered, and a male voice came from the other side: "Mom, why don't you and Huo Beiyan go home tonight? Zichen's fiancée comes to visit her for the first time to recognize her."

The little old lady paused, and the things in her mind that had been so vague that she couldn't remember seemed to have been suddenly taken away!

In a flash of lightning, she remembered who she really was.

It turns out that she is the old Mrs. Huo who was taken advantage of!

Thinking about being despised and ridiculed just now...

The little old lady immediately gritted her teeth and said, "I will definitely go home!"

She hung up the other party's call and sent a voice message to Huo Beiyan on WeChat: "Grandson, I'm being bullied! You must go home at night and help me make the decision!"

After finishing the delivery, the little old lady grabbed Xu Nange and said mysteriously: "My grandson's wife, I remembered my grandson's name!"
