People in the village had louder voices. Even though Liu Meihua had purposely lowered her voice, everyone still heard what she said.
Jiang Tingrou saw Cao Guifang's cold face and hurriedly tried to smooth things over. "Xin 'er and Ling' er look alike. It's not strange that you're mistaken."
"One has an oval face, the other has an oval face. How …"
"Meihua, Ze 'er is here." Xiao Caifu interrupted Liu Meihua.
Liu Meihua frowned and mumbled, "I haven't finished speaking. Why are you interrupting?" Then she saw Xiao Ruize coming in and smiled. "Ze 'er, why did you take so long to go to the washroom? Come and sit down. Everyone's here. We can eat now."
Cao Guifang's face instantly turned ugly. Her eyes were filled with disdain and contempt. He had no manners at all, as if he hadn't eaten for 800 years.
Jiang Tingrou also disliked Xiao Caifu and his wife. Although they were dressed decently today, the woman's face was wrinkled like a folding fan. Her skin was dark and rough, and her hands were unsightly. Her veins were bulging and her joints were twisted.
Her words were also vulgar. In this kind of situation, she called going to the washroom as going to the washroom.
If Shu Mengling and Xiao Ruize hadn't been caught red-handed by Cao Guifang that day, the engagement wouldn't have ended well. Let alone eating with such a person, just looking at her would make her feel disgusted.
After Xiao Ruize sat down, Liu Meihua was the first to pick up her chopsticks and began to pick up food for her baby son. After a while, no one else moved their chopsticks, but Liu Meihua picked up almost every dish on the table. The dishes in front of Xiao Ruize were piled up like a small mountain.
Cao Guifang's face had already turned ugly. She couldn't help but say in a low voice, "No manners."
"Grandma in-law, what did you say?" Liu Meihua was focused on taking care of her son and didn't hear clearly. She stopped and realized that no one had eaten. "Eh, why aren't you eating? The food won't taste good when it's cold. Hurry up and eat."
Liu Meihua didn't hear Cao Guifang's words clearly, but Xiao Ruize heard them clearly. His face paled and there was anger in his eyes.
Although Xiao Ruize was a scumbag, he was very filial. He knew how much his parents had suffered in order to send him to a big city like Fan City to study. He said softly, "Mom, you can eat by yourself. Don't just take care of me."
"Okay." Her son cared about her. Liu Meihua smiled with relief.
Everyone began to eat. No one spoke. The atmosphere was very quiet.
On the way here, Xiao Caifu had already reminded Liu Meihua that the Shu Family was a big family. His son marrying their daughter was considered a social climb, so she should be more humble.
However, Liu Meihua didn't think so. She felt that the Shu family must not know how outstanding her son was. She had to tell them. Moreover, it was so strange to eat without talking.
Thus, after Liu Meihua tasted the fresh dishes on the table, she was no longer in a hurry to eat. She looked at Cao Guifang and took the initiative to start the conversation. "Grandma, what do you think of my Ze 'er?"
Cao Guifang frowned and didn't say anything, but the disdain that flashed through her eyes and the indifferent expression on her face explained everything.
Liu Meihua thought that old ladies from rich families were all cold and liked to put on airs, so she didn't take Cao Guifang's expression to heart. She continued to smile and said, "Grandma, I'm not praising my son, but my Ze 'er is indeed very outstanding.
In our village, he's the only child who was admitted to a big city school. His grades have always been very good in school. He has always been receiving scholarships from the first year to the fourth year.
