As soon as Grandma Xia returned home, her son Xia Pei rushed back as well. "Mother, why are you in such a hurry to have your son investigate what happened to the Xiao family?"
Xia Lanjiao's face was filled with malice. Even now, when she thought about the slap Xia Lanxin had given her, she still felt a burning pain.
Xia Yuan quietly tugged at her father's sleeve and whispered to Xia Pei what had happened at the mall that day.
Xia Pei was slightly surprised, "The Xiao family has come to the capital?"
Immediately, he composed himself and earnestly reported to Xia Lanjiao: "Mother, I have already investigated. Since the Su family's incident three years ago, the Xiao family has moved abroad and only recently returned to the country."
The Xiao family's company is now just an empty shell and is not operating.
Of the Xiao family's children, apart from the two younger ones who are still in school, the eldest, Xiao Yixin, is focused on design and has his own small design studio, though he is not very well-known.
The second son, Xiao Yiyi, also opened his own small clinic. The third son, Xiao Renzhong, didn't like studying when he was young, so the Xiao family used their connections to get him into the army, and he should be a junior officer now.
The fourth brother, Xiao Daoyuan, was a captain for Air China, but he was recently suspended for unknown reasons. The fifth brother, Xiao Qie, was just a poor artist, and the sixth brother, Xiao Bushe, earned a little more, but was still just a construction foreman.
Xia Pei originally thought that his grandmother would feel better after hearing that the Xiao family wasn't very good.
But to everyone's surprise, the old lady became even angrier, her chest heaving violently.
Xia Lanjiao was truly furious. Hearing Xia Lanxin's tone, she thought the Xiao family was now incredibly powerful and didn't even respect the Xia family. That's why she didn't dare to offend them easily and swallowed her anger to apologize.
But who knew...
That bitch Xia Lanxin was just using a dog's skin as a banner to fool her!
Ironically, she was fooled by her and lost face completely in that situation!
She absolutely has to get her revenge!
——
Little Ruanruan, along with her grandmother, aunt, and older sister, bought a whole truckload of things at the mall before happily heading home.
Before even entering the living room, Xiao Ruanruan sniffed hard, "The boiled rabbit that Brother Shiyu made smells so good!"
She had barely taken off when Su Xixi had already dashed inside, becoming a blur of motion.
After washing his hands, he climbed directly onto the dining table.
Su Xiaowu, who was already sitting and waiting for them, gave Su Qianqian a disdainful look and reminded her, "Qianqian, wipe the drool from the corner of your mouth, it's going to drip into the bowl."
Susie instinctively wiped it.
Where did that saliva come from? She glared at Su Xiaowu fiercely and said, "Brother, you're messing with me!"
After Grandma and Auntie were seated, the family began to eat.
While munching on a spicy rabbit head, Susie was excitedly recounting her grandmother's heroic deeds at the mall that day.
Grandpa got nervous as soon as he heard this. He put down his chopsticks, took Grandma's hand and looked at it again and again. He was relieved to find that there wasn't a single tiny wound on Grandma's hand.
With a frown and a stern face, she scolded her grandmother, "You're so old, why are you still so impulsive? Xia Lanjiao has bodyguards with her. If you hit her, what if she gets her bodyguards to hit you?"
Even if she didn't dare call her bodyguards to hit you, with her thick skin, what if she accidentally hurt your hand?
Grandma's face darkened when Grandpa said those things to her in front of so many people; she seemed a little embarrassed.
"Ahem..." Fang Ning quickly coughed twice to break the awkward atmosphere between the two. "Dad, although Mom didn't bring any bodyguards, she brought me with her!"
"With me here, don't worry. Even the most incompetent bodyguards can't hurt Mom."
Her words prompted her grandfather, who was already somewhat intimidated by his grandmother's expression, to shift his anger onto her, saying, "How dare you say that? I haven't even said anything to you yet!"
Are you still the young girl who first came to our house?
She's a mother of eight, almost fifty years old, and last time she twisted her back while riding a motorcycle, you still wanted to fight with the bodyguard? What were you thinking?
"Yes, yes, Dad is right!" Fang Ning was unusually obedient at this moment.
Grandpa was too embarrassed to say much about his daughter-in-law, so he frowned and scolded his son, "You should keep a closer eye on your wife. It's one thing for her to go out and have fun all the time, but she also brings your mother along. What kind of behavior is that?"
Grandma, who had been patiently enduring all along, finally couldn't hold back any longer and slammed her hand on the table. "Xiao Jianguo, that's enough! My son and daughter-in-law and I have given you face, and you're taking advantage of it, aren't you?"
If eating can't shut you up, then don't eat at all. Go take the durian out of the fridge and kneel down there.
My grandfather, who had been so arrogant just moments before, immediately cowered and shrugged, eating his meal quietly.
Shi Yu placed a roasted rabbit leg into Xiao Ruanruan's bowl.
Little Ruanruan took a bite with a satisfied look on her face, "Brother Shiyu's roasted rabbit is still the best!"
As she spoke, she handed another rabbit leg to Shi Yu, saying, "Brother Shi Yu, back when we were in the orphanage, you would always secretly save the rabbit leg for me to eat the next day. Now we can each have one!"
But just as the rabbit leg landed in Shi Yu's bowl, Xiao Yiyi snatched it away.
Xiao Yiyi solemnly placed a piece of steamed fish on Shi Yu's plate, "Your brother Shi Yu has just recovered, so it's not suitable for him to eat barbecue, spicy and greasy food. Steamed fish is fine. If you want roasted rabbit leg, we'll make it later!"
"Okay, fine!" Little Ruanruan obediently sat back down.
Just as she was continuing to gnaw on her rabbit leg, she noticed several pairs of eyes staring at her pitifully.
