Chapter 465: Either Old or Elder
"If you don't understand, just shut up." Grandma Xu scolded her daughter.
Really ignorant.
Nanhong doesn't know.
Tan Zhengming often wears agarwood bracelets, which are of good quality and very expensive.
Tan Zhengming and his wife had previously introduced the bracelet on his hand to each other, and she listened.
A few wooden beads can cost hundreds of thousands or even thousands.
The bracelet I just bought seems to be in good condition, and I guess it won’t be cheap.
But she also knew that this matter was very complicated.
Grandma Xu moved closer to Jiang Xue again and took advantage of the silence between the two to interrupt their conversation.
"Where is home?"
"What do parents do?"
"How many brothers are there at home?"
Jiang Xue put down the photo album and answered truthfully.
There are younger brothers and sisters below.
My parents cook in the school cafeteria.
My hometown is a remote village in a poor county in Province A.
But Grandma Xu didn't seem satisfied with her answer.
The tone changed from polite to impolite.
I couldn't help but mention what happened yesterday.
"I'm sorry for yesterday. I didn't know you were Xu Mo's girlfriend."
"Because it's a wedding, there are many people and many gossips. The Tan family also has some small, poor relatives who are not well-known. I am worried that they will eat and take things without permission."
He looked at Jiang Xue and said, "You want to study abroad with my grandson too? Your parents must have had a hard time supporting you to study abroad and raising so many children."
"You haven't graduated yet, right? I see the gift you brought isn't cheap. Young people don't need to pretend to be rich. Just bring two cartons of milk from the supermarket downstairs, and my wife won't mind."
Xu Qingqing, who was standing by, also joined in after hearing what her mother said, "Don't tell me that bracelet you just gave me is artificially synthesized, injected with glue or something. Wearing it like that is not good for your health."
Xu Mo wanted to speak, but Jiang Xue spoke first.
"I didn't know you were Grandma Xu Mo yesterday. I thought you were the nanny of the Tan family. I was still wondering about the nanny's attitude. How could you treat a guest in such a tone? Later I found out that although you are a nanny, you have retired."
Although Grandma Xu was a nanny, she felt that Jiang Xue was different from ordinary nannies, so she was very unhappy when she kept calling Jiang Xue "nanny".
I couldn't help but explain to Jiang Xue: "I'm not an ordinary nanny. I saved Tan Zhengming, so his family treats me very well and treats me like a half-elder."
"The Tan family is really a kind-hearted family. It turns out they saved my life." Jiang Xue showed an expression of discovery.
"What do you mean by that?" Grandma Xu asked a little unhappily.
"Can I tell you? I'm afraid you'll be angry if I tell you, grandma." Jiang Xue pretended to be worried.
"If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you beating around the bush?" Grandma Xu said dissatisfiedly.
"I thought you knew I was Xu Mo's girlfriend, and you were deliberately looking for trouble with me. If you weren't looking for trouble, you were so unprofessional as a nanny yesterday, flattering the powerful and looking down on the weak. For such a snobbish attitude towards the poor relatives of the host family, you can retire as a nanny, if you didn't save my life, the Tan family is really tolerant."
"Uncle Tan apologized to me for a long time yesterday, saying that you are old and confused and speak without restraint."
"Yesterday I was wondering how an ordinary nanny could make the host family apologize so humbly. It turns out that she saved his life. Uncle Tan is really a man who values friendship and loyalty."
These few words can be said to be sarcastic.
Grandma Xu slammed the coffee table in anger and stood up, saying harshly: "You are so sharp-tongued and uneducated. How can you say that about your elders!"
"Just because you're old doesn't make you an elder. Being old just means you've lived longer. It doesn't mean others have to respect you just because you put yourself in the position of an elder." Jiang Xue added.
"Xu Mo, you were listening here, right? You let others say that about your grandmother! You brought a girl like this home, break up with her right away. I don't agree with you dating her."
"Mom, my son doesn't need your consent to find a girlfriend." Mother Xu, who was listening to the situation in the restaurant, quickly came over and confronted her mother-in-law.
"Didn't Jiang Xue just say that she was afraid you would be angry, but you still asked. Now you can't afford to get angry and lose your temper with the younger generation." Mother Xu said again.
"It's not enough that you act like an elder to these people in your family. Besides, Jiang Xue is just Xu Mo's girlfriend. Even if she marries into my family, as the next generation, why should she listen to your weird words?"
"Grandma, I'll ask Uncle Tan later if you found out from him that Jiang Xue is my girlfriend and are deliberately making things difficult for her." Xu Mo also said to his grandmother.
"She was wearing the same bridesmaid dress as the maid of honor yesterday. Even if you don't know her, you shouldn't mistake her for another relative."
"You always want this person to respect you and that person to respect you. Do you respect others?" Xu Mo said coldly.
"Xiao Mo, your grandma is also thinking about you. With your height, looks, education, and intelligence, you can find any girl you want." Xu Qingqing also said.
"If you come from a small place like this and have brothers and sisters at home, you will definitely regret it in the future if you look for someone like that."
"Sister-in-law, don't let your son do whatever he wants. Before, his grandmother wanted to introduce Tan Xiao to Xu Mo, but he refused."
Didn’t you also go to Tanxiao’s wedding yesterday? It was so grand. As for the dowry, I heard there are shares worth hundreds of millions. If Xiao Mo really listens to his mother, he can work less for many years.
After all, her mother is a nanny, and the jobs she found for the Tan family were all low-level jobs.
If their nephew married Tan Xiao, as in-laws, they and other relatives would also be able to benefit from it.
"If you're so envious, let me introduce one to your two children."
"Can you two mother and daughter please stop meddling in other people's business?"
"My son can decide what kind of person he wants to find. Please go away. You are not welcome in my home." Mother Xu said, suppressing her anger.
Seeing Jiang Xue was there, she didn't want to quarrel in front of the girl.
"What do you mean your home? This is also my son's home." Grandma Xu said angrily.
At this time, Father Xu, who had been silent, spoke up, "Mom, your son's home is not convenient today, can you please come another day? You are my mother, I can't stop you from coming to my house, I have the obligation to raise you, but I have my own little family and my own life to live. Besides, didn't you say before that you wanted us to give you a house? Don't count on me for your retirement in the future."
"It's only been a short while, and you're going back on your word again."
Grandma Xu pulled her son, "Silly boy, you forgot that she came here today to discuss with them about transferring the house back to him and giving money to Xu Mo for schooling."
Mr. Xu knew what Mrs. Xu meant. He actually thought it was his right to take these things. After all, the house plus the money together amount to several million, which is a huge sum.
He was also very tempted.
He is a son, and he can't escape whether his mother gives him the house or the money for retirement.
His wife was right. He would rather not have all this than have chaos every day.
His son is successful and he and his wife have some savings.
There's no need to suffer the fucking anger if you take the money.
"You don't need to transfer that house to me. I don't want it."
"Xu Mo doesn't want your money for tuition. He doesn't even need our money. He earns enough to go to school on his own."
Grandma Xu pulled her again and told her that she had secretly told her son about the transfer of ownership and Xu Mo's schooling, and her daughter didn't even know about it. Was he a fool to reveal it all here?
I glanced at my daughter's face and it looked really bad.
"Mom, you have an obligation to support me, and I also have an obligation to take care of you in your old age. If you can't move, I will hire a nanny for you and move to your house to take care of you."
"My wife and my son have no obligation to support you."
"Don't mind your own business and bother them."
