Chapter 77: We severed ties long ago! We're complete strangers!
Madam Xia stared in shock at the elegant Madam Fu, who was dressed in noble clothes. She really hadn't seen wrong!
This priceless cheongsam is actually on this old lady who farms!
Isn't she a farmer?
Why are you dressed so richly?
And she's also the host here?
Old Madam Xia could hardly believe her ears. She stepped forward, pointed at Old Madam Fu, and shouted, "Where did you come from, you old lady? How dare you boast that you're the hostess of this banquet?"
She really couldn't believe that Madam Fu was actually so wealthy. She maliciously thought that the cheongsam Madam Fu was wearing must be borrowed or fake!
"Madam Xia, you don't even know Madam Fu?" Xu Luo looked Madam Xia up and down in surprise, clutching the banquet bag in her hand. "But then again, given the Xia family's status and position... it's indeed unlikely that they would know Madam Fu."
"Madam Fu?" Madam Xia's face turned pale. "Could it be... that Fu family?"
The Fu family at the very top of the pyramid?
impossible!
How could that be?
The Fu family is incredibly wealthy, and the eldest son of the Fu family is an exceptional individual. It is said that he is already a top-ranking officer in the military, leading a special forces unit...
I heard that the Fu family also has a pair of outstanding twin brothers.
Twins... The ones who fought with her three grandsons a while ago were a pair of twins.
No way...
No way...
Could the old lady in front of me really be the Fu family, who are so high and mighty that the Xia family can't even reach them by standing on tiptoe?
The Fu family matriarch actually hosted a banquet for Xia Mian's college admission.
Why?
Madam Xia couldn't understand it at all.
She felt dizzy and almost lost her balance. If Lu Lian'er hadn't supported her, she would have fainted.
"Grandma, please don't be angry." Xia Mian supported Madam Fu's arm. "I have long since severed ties with the Xia family! They are only here to make me unhappy!"
"But... I stopped caring about them a long time ago, so why should I feel unhappy?"
Her tone was indifferent, as if the Xia family members were completely unrelated people.
Madam Fu glanced at Madam Xia, whose face was grim, as well as Lu Lian'er and the three Xia brothers.
“I’m telling you, Mianmian is now my granddaughter, Old Lady Fu! You may despise her, but I love her! She will have nothing to do with you anymore.”
"Stop bothering her all the time!"
"If you want to treasure that fake product, that's up to you."
Madam Xia stood there awkwardly, wishing she could scratch her toes.
She worriedly wondered what the consequences would be if she offended the Fu family.
The Fu family is someone she can't afford to offend!
Will the Fu family try to trip her up in the future?
She felt like she had a cat in her heart, her mind racing and scratching uncomfortably.
Lu Lian'er stared at Xia Mian's beautiful and radiant face with jealous and malicious eyes. Why was Xia Mian able to win the favor of the Fu family?
Is the Fu family someone that just anyone can climb up to?
How did Xia Mian get involved?
What kind of schemes and tricks did she use?
Without thinking, Lu Lian'er spoke to Madam Fu, "Madam, hello, I am Lu Lian'er, Xia Mian's younger sister."
“Xia Mian... she has always liked to lie and is jealous of me. Our Xia family has never treated her badly or kicked her out... it was all her own choice.”
"Besides, my grandma and brothers really treated her very well. But she was too willful. If she did anything wrong in the Fu family, I apologize to her here."
She bent over, thinking she had done a very proper job.
Madam Fu was once again shocked by Lu Lian'er's shamelessness, which set a new low for her.
Her tone was cold and stern, tinged with displeasure as she reprimanded, "Who gave you the right to speak?"
"You're only standing here today because of Xia Mian!"
Xia Qinglin was intimidated by Madam Fu's imposing presence, but she was still unwilling to give up.
"It's all Xia Mian's fault for being so ignorant. You have such a good relationship with the Fu family now, why don't you introduce your brothers to them? You've caused Old Madam Fu to have such a big misunderstanding about us."
He then smiled knowingly at Madam Fu and said, "Grandma Fu, that's just how Xia Mian is. She never thinks of us when good things happen. She's too selfish and only thinks about herself."
"You must have some misunderstanding about us. Once the misunderstanding is cleared up, we'll be one family."
Xia Qingyang immediately added, "Grandma Fu, yes! Mianmian is my sister, so the three of us brothers are also your grandsons. Whether you take in one granddaughter or three grandsons, it's the same... Wouldn't it be good to have three more grandsons to take care of you?"
"Grandma Fu, please accept my bow." Xia Qingfeng bowed deeply to Madam Fu.
The three brothers looked obsequious, as if they couldn't wait to change their surname to Fu.
Being able to get involved with the Fu family is an incredible stroke of luck!
How could they possibly let such a good opportunity slip by?
Madam Xia's face turned ashen, her harsh gaze sweeping over her three grandsons, a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes.
What she was most pleased about was that her three grandsons were always so perceptive and knew how to build relationships with influential people.
She was completely unaware of how despicable her three grandsons' sycophantic behavior towards the powerful was.
Even though Madam Fu was well-informed and thought she had seen a lot of ugly people, she was still a very knowledgeable person.
However, she was still deeply shocked by the Xia family!
How could they be so shameless as to say such unbelievable things?
How could they be so shameless?
Why did you just blurt it out like that?
Not only was Madam Fu shocked, but many people present were also stunned.
Xia Mian felt extremely embarrassed!
She really didn't want to admit that this was her blood brother.
Zhao Baoqi smirked, "You guys are spineless. Your groveling and subservient manner is disgusting."
"Disgusting!" Fu Yanhao shook his head. "Xia Mian, are you... are you really siblings?"
Xia Mian laughed sarcastically, "It might be related to genes. After all... I probably have more genes like my mother, while my brothers have more genes like Grandma Xia and my father."
"After all, back then... we weren't surnamed Xia. We took our mother's surname, Lin. Later, my maternal grandfather passed away, and the Lin Group became the Xia Group. My father also returned to the original surname after three generations! He changed our surname from Lin to Xia."
"My God! The Xia family has such a secret?"
"Isn't this just like a son-in-law seizing the family property?"
"Wow! Amazing! Absolutely amazing!"
"Xia Mian, are you crazy! What good will it do you to expose your family's dirty laundry?" Xia Qinglin raised his hand in anger, wanting to hit her. He had tolerated her all night!
And now she actually dares to say these things in front of so many distinguished guests.
"Stop!" Suddenly, a cold voice rang out.
