Chapter 243: Such heavy words
Tu Ran nodded, quickly changed his shoes, and trotted to the old lady.
Then I started chatting with the old lady.
"Grandma, is your cough gone?"
"I'm completely fine. In previous years, New Year's Eve and two days would be cold, and that would be the time I suffered the most."
"I couldn't sleep all night, and there wasn't a sound this year. Our Ranran is a great doctor."
Tu Ran smiled and said, "It was just a coincidence. It's not that my medical skills are great. It's because grandma trusted me and had the power of faith that she recovered so quickly."
"You are really good at coaxing people with your mouth." The old lady's eyes were full of doting.
Xie Nancheng walked over with a smile, sat on the sofa, and picked up an orange to peel it.
"That's not right, grandma. She never coaxes anyone."
"Maybe what he said is the truth."
"Grandma likes good kids who tell the truth and are honest." The old lady was obviously protective of her children.
"Qiu, go get Ranran's clothes."
"What clothes?" Xie Nancheng asked.
Sister Qiu immediately smiled and continued, "It's a New Year's dress that the old lady made for the young lady. She had made clothes for her before, so she had her size. More than half a month ago, the old lady's custom-made fabric arrived from the south, and she rushed it over. She made two sets overnight. They're both very beautiful."
After saying that, Sister Qiu turned around and went upstairs to get it.
"Thank you, grandma." Tu Ran felt very warm in his heart.
"Isn't it normal to wear new clothes during the New Year? It's also a custom in our northern part." The old lady had no intention of watching TV. Her eyes were fixed on her granddaughter-in-law. She thought she was beautiful no matter how she looked at her.
"Grandma, where is mine?" A certain big shot was jealous.
"What's yours?"
"Don't be stupid. Since we have to wear new clothes for the New Year, where are my clothes?"
"I can't buy men's fabrics, so you can just buy a few sets yourself." The old lady was perfunctory.
This made Tu Ran laugh out loud.
At this time, Sister Qiu had returned with two dresses in her hands.
One is a dark red, long, fishtail cheongsam design, which looks very elegant on Tu Ran, as she is very white.
The other one was a thicker one, bright red, with white fur on the cuffs and collar.
It is extremely cute and playful. It is a half-length jacket and very festive.
"I like both of them." Tu Ran really liked them, that was the truth.
One is dressed slim and classy.
A warm and cute dress, I have never had clothes of this style before.
Xie Nancheng crossed his legs and looked at it carefully for a while.
Pointing to the fishtail skirt, she said, "My grandma has good taste. This one is really beautiful."
"By the way, you can wear this to the Lin family wedding."
"No, this is red, I can't steal the bride's limelight." Tu Ran refused directly.
"Lin family wedding? I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. They seemed to have sent someone to deliver the invitation. Who's getting married? I haven't seen it yet." The old lady really looked down on the Lin family and didn't take it seriously.
"Lin Chen."
"Oh, that son, isn't he mentally ill? He got married so soon?" asked the old lady.
"He's pretending to be mentally ill. He's just a deadbeat and doesn't want to pay his debts."
"The person he's marrying is also from a wealthy family. He probably wants to take over their wealth. The Guo family only has one daughter, and she's not very smart. I heard that Mr. Guo loves her very much and doesn't have any illegitimate children. I'm afraid Lin Chen is going to wipe out the entire family."
What Xie Nancheng said was not pleasant, but his analysis was definitely correct.
Tu Ran knew very well who Lin Chen was.
He has no good intentions.
"Forget it, we won't comment on other people's affairs."
"These two colors really don't suit each other. I'll have someone make a set for you later, Ranran."
"No need, grandma. The wedding banquet is the day after tomorrow. It's too late." Tu Ran quickly refused.
"The day after tomorrow, so soon."
"Take Ranran to buy some beautiful dresses tomorrow, and I'll reimburse you."
"Grandma, you're not so generous to me." Xie Nancheng smiled.
"You're not as likable as Ranran." The old lady retorted directly.
At this time, Xie Nancheng's cell phone rang and he got up to answer it.
Tu Ran adjusted the two dresses.
Sister Qiu took the opportunity to whisper something in the old lady's ear, and the old lady's expression changed slightly.
"Ranran, please sit down first. Grandma will go upstairs for a moment."
"Okay, go ahead."
With the help of Sister Qiu, the old lady came to the study on the second floor.
Because the old lady kept asking for fish, Mr. Xie went out ice fishing at noon and hasn't come back yet.
Mrs. Xie has been feeling unwell recently and is resting upstairs.
Right now, I'm making a phone call in the study.
The study door was slightly open, and her voice was neither loud nor soft, but she could still hear it clearly.
Mrs. Xie: Hanhan, you must come over today.
Mrs. Xie: Nancheng just got home and he definitely won’t leave right away. Come over here.
Mrs. Xie: To be honest, Nancheng also has a good impression of you.
Mrs. Xie: As for that woman, you don’t have to worry about her. No one in our Xie family takes her seriously. You don’t have to care about her at all, do you understand?
Mrs. Xie: Hanhan, let me tell you, this is a rare opportunity.
Mrs. Xie: You are such a beautiful girl, I don’t believe Nancheng won’t be tempted...
Mrs. Xie: You know your aunt is on your side, right? Your aunt is telling you...
Mrs. Xie was in high spirits, but she hadn't finished her words yet.
The phone was suddenly snatched away and the call was hung up.
Mrs. Xie turned around and was about to lose her temper, "What's wrong with you, you..."
"Mom, why are you here?" Seeing the old lady, Mrs. Xie quickly swallowed her words.
"Who are you calling?"
"No, nothing."
"It is not the right of a mother-in-law to alienate her son and daughter-in-law." The old lady looked unhappy as she looked at Mrs. Xie word by word.
Seeing that the old lady had exposed her secret, Mrs. Xie simply stopped hiding it.
"Mom, tell me the truth, I know you like that girl Tu Ran."
"But I don't think she's right for Nancheng. I've mentioned this before. Zhou Han, on the other hand, comes from the prestigious Zhou family. She's been in love with Nancheng for years. We went to the same high school together. She's a local and knows him well. She's cultured, well-mannered, beautiful, and has a good family background. I think she's a better wife for Nancheng."
"Does Nancheng know about this?"
"He will understand my good intentions." Mrs. Xie didn't feel that she was wrong at all.
The old lady looked at her and asked, "You are not young anymore, how could you do such a foolish thing? You brought it to a stranger on New Year's Eve, and I warned you, but you still did it again? Such a disgraceful thing should not be done by you. I am also your mother-in-law. If I had insisted on not allowing you to be with my son, and brought a third party back to interfere in your marriage, how do you think you would feel?"
"Mom, there's no comparison here. What are you talking about?"
"Let me ask you one thing, are you crazy? The two children are fine, why are you stirring up trouble here? You are so old, why don't you care about your own face? You are getting worse and worse as you get older?" These words of the old lady were very serious to Mrs. Xie. The old lady had never said such harsh words in all these years.
"Mom, you say this to me just for a wild girl from the mountains?" Mrs. Xie was extremely angry and asked loudly with tears in her eyes.
