Wang Huizhen slapped Wang Xiuzhu in a reproachful manner, "What are you talking about!"

Wang Xiuzhu smiled at Shen Mingzhu, "I'm just joking, you don't mind, do you?"

Shen Mingzhu was not angry, but she felt a little uncomfortable. She deliberately ignored Wang Xiuzhu and turned to explain to Wang Huizhen that she had not found the tea.

Wang Huizhen smiled and said it was okay, saying that she didn't like drinking tea normally, and the matter was just passed.

After a few simple greetings, Wang Huizhen's eyes fell on Pei Ziheng who was sitting on the balcony in a daze, and she couldn't help but sigh, "Ziheng has grown so big in the blink of an eye. I couldn't recognize him when I saw him just now. The last time I saw him, he was only this big."

Wang Huizhen measured at her knees and said, "Time flies by so fast."

Shen Mingzhu responded with a smile.

Wang Xiuzhu didn't say much, but her eyes were scanning Shen Mingzhu like a radar. Shen Mingzhu felt uncomfortable, but because of Wang Huizhen, she couldn't say anything, so she could only endure it.

Wang Huizhen didn't stay for long before she got up and said goodbye.

Before leaving, he strongly invited her and Pei Ziheng to have dinner at his home in the evening.

Considering Pei Yang's relationship with the Lin family, Shen Mingzhu agreed.

After passing through the staff dormitory gate, Wang Huizhen glanced at her niece, "How is it? Now that you've seen the real person, you should give up now, right?"

Wang Xiuzhu's face was filled with dissatisfaction. "Besides a decent face, what else is there to recommend her? She doesn't even know how to entertain guests, and she has no manners. She ignored me when I spoke to her. She's from the countryside, and she only has a junior high school education. I'm a college student. Why should she be so proud in front of me?"

"You asked for it. You ridiculed others for being from the countryside. Do you think they couldn't hear you?"

"I'm not wrong. Who uses boiled water to entertain guests these days?"

"Didn't you say you didn't find any tea leaves?"

"If you don't have any at home, you can go out and buy some."

Wang Huizhen waved her hands and said, "Forget it. I can't argue with you. Just keep on being so stubborn."

Wang Xiuzhu was still indignant, "She has nothing good except her face. I have a good family background, a high level of education, and I am not bad looking. Even a blind man should know how to choose."

"You also said that she is good-looking. Why are men so obsessed with vixen? Isn't it because vixen are beautiful?"

"Pei Yang is not such a superficial man!"

Wang Huizhen snorted and laughed, "That may not be the case. Don't think too highly of Pei Yang. After all, he is just an ordinary man. As long as he is a man, he likes beautiful women."

"We are both pearls, but you are just Xiuzhu, and she is Mingzhu. Even her name is superior to yours."

Wang Xiuzhu: “…”

So angry!

Of course you can't visit someone empty-handed, so after lunch, Shen Mingzhu took Pei Ziheng to the department store to buy gifts.

Xicheng Port has a developed trade industry. The goods here are not only cheap but also rich in variety. There are also many novel items that cannot be seen in Fengcheng.

Shen Mingzhu went shopping for the whole afternoon, and only returned to the dormitory in the evening, feeling satisfied, carrying a lot of bags.

After resting for a while, Shen Mingzhu changed into appropriate clothes for herself and Pei Ziheng, put on some simple makeup, and then went to the Lin family with the gifts.

The Lin family lives on the next street, just a five-minute walk away.

In the kitchen, Wang Xiuzhu was washing vegetables with her hands, but her eyes were always observing Shen Mingzhu in the living room.

"Look at her looking around. She looks like an ignorant country bumpkin."

Wang Huizhen felt that her niece had gone too far, and couldn't help but scold her in a low voice, "Okay, stop talking."

Wang Xiuzhu bit her lip, turned around and ran to the living room.

Shen Mingzhu was admiring the furniture of the Lin family. When she saw Wang Xiuzhu coming out of the kitchen, she nodded politely as a greeting.

Wang Xiuzhu walked up to her and said with a smile, "My aunt can't handle it alone, so I have to help out. I'm sorry to have neglected you."

Shen Mingzhu was wondering why this person suddenly became polite, and then she heard him change the subject, "There's a record player over there, play some music you like, so you don't get bored sitting there."

Shen Mingzhu looked at the antique record player placed in the corner, then looked at Wang Xiuzhu, and vaguely understood something.

"Just go and do your work, don't worry about us."

Wang Xiuzhu didn't leave, she stood there like a wooden stake, pretending to be curious and asked Shen Mingzhu, "Why don't you go play some music?"

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

Shen Mingzhu smiled politely, "Oh, I don't want to listen now."

"You don't know how to use a record player, do you? You can tell me directly. I won't laugh at you. You are from the countryside and you probably haven't seen a record player. I can understand that. What kind of music do you like to listen to?"

Wang Xiuzhu talked to herself as she walked towards the record player, "Jazz? Rock? Classical? Waltz? Or blues?"

Wang Huizhen came out from the kitchen upon hearing the noise. When she heard that her niece was deliberately teasing Shen Mingzhu, her face became slightly displeased.

Pei Yang was her husband's favorite disciple and also a younger generation whom she liked very much. Even for Pei Yang's sake, she could not allow her niece to act recklessly and embarrass Shen Mingzhu.

"Xiuzhu, stop talking to Mingzhu and come in and help me wash some ginger. I need it urgently."

Wang Xiuzhu was determined to embarrass Shen Mingzhu, and even though she knew Wang Huizhen was unhappy she ignored it.

"Mingzhu doesn't know how to use the record player. I'll play some music for her and then I'll go wash the ginger."

After saying that, he looked at Shen Mingzhu with a smile, his tone somewhat aggressive.

"Hurry up, my aunt is waiting for me to wash the ginger, don't waste time."

"Moonlight Sonata."

The person who spoke was Pei Ziheng, who had been silent the whole time.

When Wang Xiuzhu looked at him, he opened his dark eyes and repeated, "Moonlight Sonata, Aunt Mingzhu likes to listen to this."

Wang Xiuzhu was stunned for a moment, then asked Shen Mingzhu, "Since you like Moonlight Sonata, you should know who composed it, right?"

Pei Ziheng frowned slightly and was about to answer for Shen Mingzhu, but Wang Xiuzhu was prepared to stop him, "Ziheng, your Aunt Mingzhu is so old, she wouldn't need a four-year-old like you to help answer such a simple question, right? That would be useless."

Shen Mingzhu did not respond to Wang Xiuzhu immediately, her eyes were on Pei Ziheng.

It was amazing that she actually saw anxiety and concern on her stepson's face.

I feel a little relieved and a little sad at the same time.
