Yuan Tangzhong accepted the order. Seeing that it was almost time, Old Mistress ordered the maid, "Go to the back hall and call Ruoxin and her daughter. Let's get ready for lunch."
Everyone moved to the dining room as they talked. Not long after the maid left, Zhao Ruoxin brought Zhao Yann down from the second floor of the villa.
This was Mu Chenyan's first time meeting Zhao Yann. She heard that she was an outstanding beauty in the past and married into the Shu Family of Luo Hai. The Shu Family had a good status among the aristocratic families before it was ruined.
Unfortunately, Zhao Yann took a wrong step after step. Her affair with her private doctor was discovered, and Shu Heng was so angry that he chased her out of the house, taking away a child with a weak heart.
Now, her healthy daughter had died in an unexpected disaster, and she had become a crazy person. Her new husband was a gambler. Fate was such a bitch that she had to live under someone else's roof.
All of this made people sigh.
Mu Chenyan watched as Zhao Yann and her daughter walked over one after another and sat next to Old Mistress.
Zhao Ruoxin was beautiful and dazzling. She was wearing a new dress that Old Mistress had custom-made for her for the Spring Festival.
Although she was not raised in a rich family, she had to admit that her natural temperament was not inferior to the socialites in Luo Hai.
On the other hand, Zhao Yann was timid. Although she was wearing clean clothes, she looked a little sloppy. Her hair was a little messy, and her eyes were absent-minded and timid. She looked at everyone and was so scared that she grabbed the corner of Zhao Ruoxin's clothes tightly.
"Xin Er … I'm scared … I'm scared …"
She did not know if she was usually like this, but she was extremely nervous at this moment.
Zhao Ruoxin's expression changed slightly when she heard Zhao Yann's crazy words.
She tugged at her clothes that were grabbed by her mother and scolded in a low voice, "Mother, everyone here is a relative of the Yuan Family. What are you afraid of? They're giving you food and drinks, but you're still afraid. Why don't you go back to City C? "
Perhaps Zhao Ruoxin's tone was full of disdain, but even a crazy person could tell the difference.
Zhao Yann shook her head in fear. "I'm not going back! I'm not going back … "
City C seemed to have given her a terrifying memory. When Zhao Ruoxin mentioned going back to City C, Zhao Yann was trembling in fear.
"Then you just sit here and eat. I'll take you to the garden to play after eating!" Zhao Ruoxin changed her tone of coaxing a child.
Zhao Yann grabbed the corner of Zhao Ruoxin's clothes and refused to let go. Zhao Ruoxin smiled helplessly at the old lady. "Grandma, I said I wouldn't let my mother come. You see …"
Old Mistress Yuan sighed and comforted her, "Yanni, let bygones be bygones. Don't think too much about it. I brought you here today to celebrate the festival with Xin 'er!"
Zhao Yann saw the kindness in the old lady's eyes. She calmed down a little and cautiously sat next to Zhao Ruoxin! The old lady was still polite to this crazy woman. Everyone at the table had their own opinions about this mother and daughter pair. Everyone had a tacit understanding during the meal, each with their own thoughts.
In Mu Chenyan's eyes, the Yuan Family's banquets were all the same. She was indeed an outsider who did not understand the situation. Thus, she displayed an indifferent attitude towards people like the Zhao Family's mother and daughter, whose origins were unknown.
After lunch, the children of the Yuan Family surrounded Old Mistress and chatted with her. Mu Chenyan bade farewell to Old Mistress and returned to Hibiscus Garden for her afternoon nap.
