"Grandma Xie was very kind to me when she was alive. Now that she's dead, I'm here to see her off. Is that okay with you, Mrs. Xie?"

"Oh, you still know that his grandmother treats you well, Su Ruowan, you are simply ruthless. Our Xie family doesn't owe you anything, so how do you treat our Xie family? Hmm?"

Xie's mother deliberately raised her voice to attract the attention of passers-by.

Those who went up the mountain to attend the funeral today were not just the Xie family. There was another family in the same row, and there was another family a few rows below.

Xie's mother stood on the steps. In order not to disturb the work of the cemetery workers, Su Ruowan and Huo Shengnian stood outside and waited patiently.

She doesn't cause trouble, but trouble always finds her.

Su Ruowan was also helpless.

"What have I done to your Xie family?"

"What did you do? Let's not talk about cheating Qinghui out of his money. The extra 100,000 yuan was just like our Xie family sending away a beggar. But, Su Ruowan, you should never, ever encourage my daughter to elope with a strange man."

"You know, my daughter is still a virgin."

Su Ruowan: “…”

Su Ruowan was confused by the word "wild man" that Xie's mother said.

What wild man?

Where did this wild man come from?

Qingling is her biological daughter, right?

So, as a mother, how could she throw dirty water on her own daughter like this?

Su Ruowan was worried that something had happened to Xie Qingling even though she hadn't seen her. Now, when she heard what Xie's mother said, Su Ruowan was completely unprepared.

Over there, after hearing what Xie's mother said, those people who had nothing to do and loved to join in the fun began to think divergently and mutter.

"Did you hear that? These days, people with sons have to be really careful. They have to remind their sons to be very careful when looking for a girlfriend."

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

"Exactly. It used to be that families with daughters worried about being scammed by scumbag men, but now families with sons are the ones who are most worried and fearful? Has the world really gotten so upside down?"

"Hey, didn't you hear the noise up there? That girl is the one that was trending earlier. I have a good memory, so I won't forget it once I've seen it."

"Keep your voice down. The older sister up there said that the girl cheated her son out of his money and even encouraged his daughter to elope with a strange man. Do you think that's too much?"

"We have no right to comment on other people's affairs. What does it have to do with you? If you really have so much free time, go over and lend a hand."

“…”

After the people who came to join in the fun left, Xie's mother was still aggressively saying many unpleasant things to Su Ruowan.

"Su Ruowan, I didn't bother with you about anything before because of Grandma Qinghui. After this matter is settled, I will find time to slowly settle the score between our family and you."

"You caused Qinghui and Xiaorou to cancel their wedding. This matter is not over yet, and it will never be over. Just wait and see."

"I've been waiting here all the time. Don't worry, I won't run away. No matter what you want to settle with me, I'll accompany you." Su Ruowan looked at Xie's mother without giving in.

She should have been patient. After all, today was a special day.

However, she also felt that someone needed to stand up for Grandma Xie in this matter.

She didn't know what Grandma Xie had been through in the past few days, but on such an important day today, they didn't allow Xie Qingling to come out for the funeral. The Xie family's behavior was really too much.

She not only wanted to seek justice for Grandma Xie, but also to rescue Xie Qingling completely.

Xie's mother turned around, glared at Su Ruowan coldly, then turned and left.

Over there, Xie's father was calling her over to bow and kowtow to his mother.

After the bows and kowtows, Grandma Xie’s immediate family members left, and other guests came over to kowtow and bow.

Su Ruowan and Huo Shengnian walked at the back, while Liu Hong and Lao Lei were together. They gave flowers to Lao Xie and then left.

When going down the mountain, Liu Hong's eyes were still red. Just now, when Xie's mother was looking for trouble with Su Ruowan, she was immersed in the sadness of Old Xie's departure and had not come out of it. Old Lei was with her, so she did not stand up for Su Ruowan in time.

Huo Shengnian wanted to protect his wife, but Su Ruowan kept stopping him.

In addition, Grandma Xie had found Mo Youwei and had already taken care of everything. Huo Shengnian also understood that there was no need to rush into things.

Let them complete the necessary procedures first.

Su Ruowan bowed three times and said, "Thank you, grandma. Rest in peace. I will do my best to fulfill your wish."

"Huo Shengnian, let's go."

"good."

At the bottom of the stairs, Liu Hong was talking to Lao Lei and the people from Fushouju. The Xie family was inviting all the guests today to the hotel for a banquet. Zheng Dan declined. They came here today just to see Grandma Xie off, not for the banquet hosted by the Xie family.

The people from Fushouju left first, and Liu Hong and Lao Lei were waiting for Su Ruowan and Huo Shengnian.

The two of them finally came down the mountain. Xie's mother didn't want to invite them to a banquet, but Xie's father and son disagreed.

In the end, Xie Qinghui came forward to make the invitation.

Mother Xie grumbled dissatisfiedly, "I lose my appetite when I see Su Ruowan."

"Just bear with it today. From now on, we won't have to deal with each other again."

"When I think about the last time she actually encouraged Qingling to run away from home, I get angry. How could the daughter I raised with so much effort be coaxed away by her with just a few words?"

"Let's not talk about these things today." Father Xie's tone was a little lower.

His old mother passed away suddenly, and he was already in a heavy mood. On top of that, there were still some procedures that had not been completed before Mrs. Xie passed away. It would be even more troublesome to handle these procedures later.

Mr. Xie has a lot of things to worry about, and those are the big things. But his wife is still worrying about some trivial matters. It's really annoying.

Xie's mother shut up. She knew what her husband was upset about.

It’s all because of that damn old woman who refused to cooperate.

snort--

Even if she didn't cooperate, it wouldn't change the outcome. Her household registration book, ID card, death certificate, and cremation certificate, all the documents were in their hands.

According to the community archives, they are her only relatives, so she just needs to go to their workplace a few more times.

Over there, Xie Qinghui came to invite Su Ruowan and the others to dinner.

"Thank you all for taking the time to come today. We will have lunch at Zhuang Defu Hotel at 12 noon."

"No need. We came here today for your grandma, not for the meal your Xie family invited us to." Liu Hong refused directly.

"Wanwan, Shengnian, let's go."

Xie Qinghui didn't bother with Liu Hong.

He looked at Su Ruowan. He had known Su Ruowan for such a long time and they were alumni of the same school. He could see from Su Ruowan's eyes that she clearly had something to say to him.

Xie Qinghui waited patiently.

As expected, Su Ruowan did not leave with Liu Hong immediately, but took a step closer to Xie Qinghui, "Xie Qinghui, is Qingling okay?"

“…”

"She is your biological sister from the same father and mother."

“…”
