Unexpectedly, Chen Afu was not surprised after hearing those words, nor did he kowtow to her immediately as Old Lady Chen had expected. Instead, he helped Chen Ming sit on the chair.
She stood beside Chen Ming and said slowly, "Old Madam Chen, you are joking. If you were my grandmother, why would you pay someone to sell me? Don't act so charitable, because I know you are not a philanthropist. Let me tell you, my grandmother is in Xiangluo Village, and my father is here. I don't know that Mr. Chen. I don't know him. I don't know why you came to my house today. You are not going to ask me to leave Tangyuan again, or to let my parents tie me up and force me to marry you? Let me tell you, your beautiful dream will not come true."
The old lady didn't expect Chen Ahfu to say that. She was so angry that her face turned red. She slapped the armrest of the chair and shouted, "How dare you! You are such an uneducated thing. You don't even know the most basic filial piety. How could Wang teach you to be like this!"
Chen Ahfu rolled his eyes and said teasingly, "Huh, you still say I'm uneducated. Shouting and yelling in someone else's house, is this a sign of being well-educated? Let me tell you, my mother taught me very well, and I am very filial to my grandmother, parents. People in our village praise me for being filial and polite."
The old lady clenched her fists and said in a loud voice, "No, we can't let someone spoil our good daughter. Ah Fu, you have to come home with me."
Chen Ahfu said in surprise, "Go home? This is my home, where else can I go back to? In this home, there is a father who loves like a mountain, a mother who is gentle like water, a smart brother, and a filial son. I am not stupid enough to abandon such a good home and go to a wolf's den."
She was determined to make this old woman angry and help Wang and the dead Xiao Afu get some interest. She was not from this era and did not have the awareness of those parents who were not wrong. Besides, she was not the original owner.
When the old lady heard her call her home a den of wolves, she really got angry again and raised her voice, "Someone, go and slap this ungrateful little bitch."
The old woman behind her was stunned for a moment, then she stepped forward and walked towards Chen Afu.
Chen Ming was so scared that he quickly stretched out his arm to block Chen Afu and said, "Don't hit Afu."
Chen Afu said, "Don't worry, Dad. We are at home. There are several guards from Tangyuan in the yard. If anyone dares to touch me, I guarantee that they won't be able to leave this door."
The old woman who was walking towards her stopped and dared not move.
Aunt Tang saw that the old lady was so angry that she forgot the purpose of coming here, so she laughed loudly a few times and said, "Oh, this is really a flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple. Family members don't recognize each other anymore. Old lady, Ah Fu is your granddaughter. She said those angry words just to act like a spoiled child to you. She has suffered so much for so many years and lived in poverty for so many years, and she still doesn't want to vent her anger. Aren't you here to take her home to enjoy a good life? How come you forgot the main thing?"
After hearing this, Old Lady Chen remembered the purpose of her visit today. She patted her forehead and said with a wry smile, "Look at me, I'm old and my mind is not clear. Ah Fu, I know you are angry and think that grandma doesn't want you, her own granddaughter. But you can't blame me for this. It was Wang who cheated us of everything. She was pregnant but didn't tell us, and brought you to this home to suffer. My dear child, now that grandma knows, grandma will take you to enjoy happiness. Come on, pack up, we're leaving now." She added, "There's nothing to clean up in this house, so you don't need to clean up. Just come with us. Grandma will buy you beautiful jewelry and clothes, let you live in a beautiful big house, and find you a good marriage in the future."
Chen Afu looked coldly at the old woman who was making big promises. If she were really a 15-year-old country girl, she might really be deceived by her.
Miss Chen, who was sitting below the old lady, stood up, came over, took Chen Ahfu's arm and giggled, "Big sister, I'll take you to the Nishang Embroidery Shop and Yuqilin Silver Shop in the city. Oh, there are so many good things there. Let grandma give you more money so that you can buy more nice clothes and jewelry for you."
Chen Yuhui wore a silver-red stand-up collar embroidered jacket, a row of lilac-colored large flower basket buttons slanted from the collar to the waist, and a lilac-colored pleated satin long skirt. This was exactly the dress that Chen Afu had designed for the Nishang Embroidery Workshop, but the color was different.
She might have seen Chen Ahfu wearing a half-worn silk long cotton gown, a half-worn fine cloth skirt, and only a wooden hairpin on her head. She even deliberately pulled her jacket with one hand and adjusted the red gold inlaid jade bead butterfly hairpin on her head.
This girl not only looks like the old lady, but also helps the old lady do bad things. What a bad girl.
Chen Ahfu pulled his arm out and sneered, "Are you taking me to your house?"
The old lady said proudly, "Of course, let's go to our big house in Dingzhou City."
Chen Ahfu sneered, "I don't believe it. If you really take me to that family," she pointed at Aunt Tang and Chen Yuhui, "the mother and daughter won't be so happy." She also pulled her clothes and fixed her hair, saying, "I am smart and beautiful. If I really go to that family, I will make this girl look even more stupid and ugly. She and her aunt will definitely not agree. I'm not stupid, so I won't be fooled by you."
This made Aunt Tang and Chen Yuhui so angry that they fell backwards. Chen Yuhui was so ashamed and angry. What she hated most in her life was that she didn't look like her good-looking parents, but this damn girl said it to her face. She cursed, "Little bitch!" and raised her hand to hit Chen Ahfu in the face.
Chen Ahfu reached out and grabbed her arm, and pushed her out with all his strength. If Aunt Tang hadn't stood up and hugged her, Chen Yuhui would have definitely fallen to the ground.
Chen Ahfu wiped his hands with a handkerchief, threw it on the ground, and cursed, "How dare you hit me! If you do it again, I will break your arm."
Aunt Tang said something in Chen Yuhui's ear, and she stamped her feet and cursed with tears in her eyes, "You country bumpkin, you have no shame." She sat on the chair unwillingly.
Old Mrs. Chen was almost angry to death. She felt that this damn girl was foul-mouthed and powerful, and she was even more worried that she was not under her control. She suppressed her anger and said, "Hui'er is your biological sister, how can you say that about her? She also sincerely wants to take you home."
Chen Afu continued, "Then what would my status be if I went to your house? You can't say that Lord Chen Shiying lives an extravagant life and has an illegitimate daughter, right? That would be detrimental to his reputation and he would be easily impeached by the censor..."
