As soon as Old Lady Ye said this, Yan Xiling and Yan Xiyao from the second room changed their expressions and glared at Ye Shuning.

Liu Wanzhen said, "Mom, Xiao Ning has a fiancé. How can you just switch your affections to someone else when you see someone good? Wouldn't that make people think you're fickle?"

Ye Shuning's expression darkened upon hearing this. She knew that this aunt disliked her, but saying such words was a bit too much. It was an insult to her. Wasn't she relying on her elder status to think that she wouldn't dare to refute?

Old Madam Ye glared at her second daughter-in-law and said, "If you can't speak, don't speak."

Yan Zhenbei also felt that what his wife said was unpleasant, and he felt a little embarrassed and looked a little unhappy.

To ease the awkward atmosphere, Fang Qiongzhi quickly said, "Mom, the food is almost ready. Let's go to the table. Xiaoning, your aunt specially asked the kitchen to prepare a lot of your favorite dishes today."

Old Madam Ye stood up, took Ye Shuning in her arms and said, "Let's go eat."

Everyone went to the dining room to eat. Old Mrs. Ye sat at the main table, with her two sons on either side, with the people from each family sitting on separate sides. Ye Shuning sat next to Yan Xiheng from the main room. Li Jingyu sat next to Ye Shuning.

The meal went quite harmoniously. Fang Qiongzhi found that Ye Shuning and Li Jingyu had very good table manners and it seemed that they both had good family education.

Fang Qiongzhi is not as short-sighted as Liu Wanzhen from the second house. She can see that the niece adopted by the old lady is no ordinary person. At least her determination is extraordinary, which is something an ordinary girl could never do.

The girl is only eighteen or nineteen years old, but she has already achieved academic success and has her own career. She is now a well-known screenwriter and also directs her own movies. This is not something that ordinary girls can do.

The little girl even published her own comic book, which was a sign of her knowledge and talent. She was much better than the two clueless daughters of the second wife.

I don’t know where the second wife’s mother and daughter get such a strong sense of superiority. They are still thinking about the second young master of the Qin family. How could he look down on the second wife’s daughter?

Thinking that the second young master of the Qin family was very courteous to Ye Shuning, she paid even more attention to Ye Shuning.

Fang Qiongzhi tried her best to show the care and concern of an elder for the younger generation, "Xiao Ning, eat more vegetables, don't be polite. Xiheng, pick some food for your little cousin."

Yan Xiheng used the serving chopsticks to put a lot of food in the bowls of Ye Shuning and Li Jingyu. "Xiao Ning, don't be restrained about what you like to eat. Just treat it as your own home."

Ye Shuning nodded, "Thank you, auntie, and thank you, cousin."

Yan Xiling from the second house pouted as she looked across at Ye Shuning, feeling a bit jealous of how her eldest cousin took care of her. But her eldest cousin never picked up food for them and rarely paid any attention to them. He was much gentler towards Ye Shuning than he was towards them.

The meal was quite harmonious. After the meal, when Ye Shuning went to the bathroom, she was blocked by Yan Xiling and Yan Xiyao.

Yan Xiling looked at Ye Shuning with contempt and sneered, "Don't think you're great just because grandma recognized you. You're just grandma's great-niece. Don't take yourself too seriously. And don't even think about getting any benefits from our Yan family.

Also, stay away from the Second Young Master of the Qin Family. He is not someone you can dwell on."

Yan Xiyao pretended to be doing this for Ye Shuning's sake and said, "My little cousin, I'm doing this for your own good. If you put your heart on Second Young Master Qin, and his family doesn't agree to let you marry in, you'll be the one who'll be sad in the end."

Families like the Qin family place the greatest emphasis on family background, and they will definitely look for a daughter-in-law who is of equal status."

Ye Shuning looked at the two self-righteous girls with some amusement. It was impossible for them to make things difficult for her.

Ye Shuning shook her head and said sarcastically, "Even if the Qin family wanted to find a daughter-in-law of equal status, they probably wouldn't look for a straw vase. No, a vase must be beautiful, and you can't even be called a vase."

Yan Xiling heard Ye Shuning's mockery of them and glared at them, saying, "You, don't be so arrogant."

Ye Shuning snorted and said, "Not as arrogant as you."

Having said that, Ye Shuning didn't want to waste any more time with the two idiots and left the bathroom.

Yan Xiling and Yan Xiyao are twins, but they are fraternal twins. They don’t look particularly alike and have very different personalities.

Ye Shuning also discovered that Yan Xiling was a hot-tempered, arrogant, willful, and impulsive person, while Yan Xiyao was the kind of white lotus who hid behind the scenes and gave bad advice. This kind of person was the most disgusting. She encouraged others to help her and pretended to be a good person herself.

Ye Shuning shook her head. Whoever married these two daughters of the Yan family would be unlucky.

Ye Shuning felt that the people in the first house were quite sincere, at least they didn't have so many calculations.

Ye Shuning stayed at Yan's house for a while and then left with Li Jingyu. Yan Xiheng directly sent the aunt and nephew home.

In the car, Yan Xiheng looked at Ye Shuning sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror and said, "My little cousin, don't pay attention to what Xiling and Xiyao say. If you don't get along with them anymore, just have less contact with them. And don't pay attention to their unreasonable requests."

Ye Shuning looked at the cousin in front of her. It seemed that this cousin knew everything.

She nodded and said, "I know my two cousins ​​might not like me. I'll just try to appear less in front of them in the future. I'll also try to choose a time when they're not around to visit my aunt, so that we don't get upset when we see each other."

Yan Xiheng didn't expect his little cousin to be so frank. He, who usually didn't like to smile, curled up his lips and said, "Grandma misses you very much. Please visit her more often when you have time. She has always felt guilty about what happened in the past. If it weren't for the medical treatment for my second uncle, my uncle and his family wouldn't have left home, and they wouldn't have been separated from my cousin. She always feels sorry for them."

Ye Shuning said, "It was because of that era, it was caused by the war. How can you blame my aunt? Isn't my father still fine now? Maybe my grandparents are still alive and well somewhere. There's really no need to keep holding on to the past."

Yan Xiheng discovered that this new cousin was very open-minded and not one to be petty. She was also very talented and modest, far superior to his two older cousins. And it was more comfortable to be around someone like her. He felt it was wonderful to have a sister like her.

After Ye Shuning returned home, she went back to her room and went to work at the research institute.

After that, Ye Shuning would go to the film studio every day and stay in her room to edit the film. The computer special effects she created made the film even better.

Later, Ye Shuning also wrote a few songs herself, some of which she even provided lyrics for. They were all classic songs from her previous life, and she could only borrow them with some guilt.

After a lot of hard work, the post-production of the film was finally completed, and Ye Shuning had lost a lot of weight. The girl was not fat to begin with, and now she was even thinner.
