Chapter 297: Family?

Xu Yanshan poked Lan Yaxin and pushed her forward.

“Grandma, I am Yaxin, Anran’s cousin.”

Lan Yaxin spoke weakly.

“Mmh, why are you here?”

Old Mrs. Mo didn’t even want to raise her head, her face full of disgust.

“In-law, isn’t it inappropriate that we haven’t officially met? That’s why I wanted to bring them over to visit.”

Zhao Xiumei sat down and smiled.

She seemed to be older than Old Mrs. Mo, and they were in-laws, so wasn’t it reasonable for them to sit down?

“Sit down, why are you standing?”

Zhao Xiumei waved as if this was her house. Xu Yanshan brought Lan Yaxin to sit and smiled.

“In-law, this is our first time here. This courtyard is so big, it can’t compare to the Lan Family’s.”

Xu Yanshan looked around in admiration.

The opera house was about three meters tall and one could see the entire villa from above.

“Grandma, you are Mo Jinrong’s grandma, so you are naturally my grandma as well. From now on, we are a family. I will come over often to talk to you.”

Lan Yaxin was very sensible.

Old Mrs. Mo clasped her hands solemnly.

“It’s alright, I’m fine alone. Besides, Anran comes over often. Why didn’t you bring her along today? Why aren’t her parents here as well?”

“Old Mrs. Mo, do you mean that we aren’t also in-laws? Anran is busy today, so it’s the same even if we come over. I’m sure you have seen the news. Anran is indeed a little angry, but it doesn’t matter. It’s normal for a married couple to be like this. Which man wouldn’t like things outside? It’s normal.”

Zhao Xiumei explained as she drank her tea.

Old Mrs. Mo was furious. She knew her grandson, he wouldn’t behave like this.

“You’re wrong. I know my grandson, he wouldn’t do such a thing for no reason. There must be a reason.”

“Yes, yes, yes! Of course, but I know Anran, she doesn’t like Jinrong at all, that’s why she went out at night… I won’t say anything more. Anyway, I didn’t raise her when she was young and she has a wild temperament. Jinrong is a good child, it’s been hard on him.

The two of them have been living separately since their marriage, so it’s inevitable that something will go wrong. I can see the distance between them, but don’t worry, they probably won’t be able to break up.”

Zhao Xiumei smiled. Old Mrs. Mo knew that she was trying to sow discord between them.

“You’re wrong. Anran grew up in the countryside and indeed, she doesn’t have many feelings for you, but Anran and Jinrong love each other deeply. I can tell, there is no need for the in-laws to hold such hope for them.”

Old Mrs. Mo had self-restraint and didn’t want to quarrel with her. It would be shameful.

“In-law, you’re right. We’re here today mainly to see you. This is the child who was supposed to marry Jinrong. It was only because she was young that Anran was chosen. Now that something like this has happened, if Anran and Jinrong really can’t live on, the child wouldn’t mind supporting the role. After all, the marriage between the two families couldn’t be changed, right?”

Zhao Xiumei tugged at Lan Yaxin.

Old Mrs. Mo glanced at Lan Yaxin. She looked a little similar to Lan Anran, but she couldn’t compare.

“Jinrong and Anran will be fine. You are thinking too much. This child is still young and doesn’t seem like someone who can hold up the Mo Family’s name. The granddaughter-in-law will definitely be Anran.”

Old Mrs. Mo’s words were undoubtedly a warning to the three of them to stop dreaming. There was no way Lan Yaxin could enter the Mo Family.

Lan Yaxin clasped her hands and forced a smile.

“Grandma, don’t worry, I definitely won’t fight with her over brother-in-law. I just want to spend some time with you. I don’t know why, but you feel so close to me.”

Lan Yaxin’s sweet words were effective on Zhao Xiumei, but Old Mrs. Mo was a clear-headed person and had long seen through her intentions. She replied calmly.

“Mmh, it would be best if that was the case. Jinrong was indeed in the wrong this time. I’ve already reprimanded him. In-law, go back and inform Anran’s parents. I’m very sorry about this, but it won’t happen again.”

Xu Yanshan nodded, her heart racing.

That old hag!

In what way was Yaxin inferior to Lan Anran?

“In-laws, no one can predict the future. You don’t know how wild Anran is, but perhaps she is used to the countryside and can’t represent the Mo Family. Yaxin is generous, sensible, and well-behaved, she would be the best candidate. In-laws, the Mo Family and the Lan Family are always in-laws, isn’t it the same even if the bride changes?”

Zhao Xiumei picked up the pastries and placed them in her mouth. They were delicious and she forcefully ate the entire plate!

Old Mrs. Mo had a disgusted expression and said calmly, “You’re wrong, that will depend on Jinrong’s wishes. Marriage isn’t a child’s play. The Mo Family is powerful, they don’t want a marriage alliance. Anran is the most suitable candidate. I would like to ask, why are you treating her differently?”

Xu Yanshan looked at Old Mrs. Mo with an embarrassed expression. She moved to the side, not wanting to have anything to do with Zhao Xiumei. It was too embarrassing to watch her eating so poorly.

“In-law, Anran didn’t grow up by Old Mrs. Lan’s side, so Yaxin is still better than her in terms of relationships. You have no idea how licentious Anran is. She went out to meet a man in the middle of the night and posted it on her Moments. It’s so embarrassing!”

Xu Yanshan was busy explaining and didn’t see the person coming up the stairs.

“Grandma, why didn’t you inform us that you were coming? What bad things did Aunt say about me? What do you mean by licentious?”

Lan Anran was wearing a colorful cheongsam which showed her curvaceous figure. She was on a completely different level from a fresh beauty like Lan Yaxin.

“Anran, why are you here?”

The moment Old Mrs. Mo saw Lan Anran, she smiled brightly and let her sit next to her.

“Grandma, I was thinking about you. I thought you hadn’t had peanut crispies from Taoji in a long time, so I bought some for you. It was a long queue.”

Lan Anran placed the peanut crispies on the table, while Old Mrs. Mo’s eyes lit up.

It had indeed been a long time since she had eaten this peanut crisp. Previously, it was because her teeth were bad and her blood sugar was high that she hadn’t had them. She kept thinking about it and missed it.

“How do you know I like this? It’s a pity my teeth are bad and my blood sugar is high. I’m afraid…”

“Grandma, don’t worry, there are several herbs in the prescription that I prescribed for you to reduce blood sugar. As long as you drink it on time, there won’t be a problem with ingesting some. You haven’t had peanut crispies in a long time, but they improved it a month ago. Now, the texture is even softer, which is best for an old person like you.”

Lan Anran broke off a piece for Old Mrs. Mo.. As expected, it was chewy, soft and tasted just as good as before.
