This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Old Madam Yun came back with Yun Lin's family, but Yun Xi looked around and did not see Ma Yan. She heard from Yun Lin that she had pushed Yun Zhu to bask in the sun in the morning and would only be back later.
Yun Xi laughed coldly in her heart. Ma Yan probably wanted to go out and listen to the gossip in the village and show off that she had seen the world in the city and lived in a big house.
She pitied Yun Zhu, who was seen sitting in a wheelchair by so many gossiping women.
“Son, you brought so many gifts. How can I accept them?”
Although she said this, Old Madam Yun was the first to rush to the gifts, her eyes revealing a greedy look. “This thing looks good. Bring more next time. It won't cost you much anyway!”
She really was not polite to his own family at all.
‘It seems that their nature hasn't changed at all after not interacting with them for so long,” Yun Xi thought to herself.
“Grandma, if you want it, I'll buy it for you next time. It was really cheap. A bunch of them only costs a few yuan!” Yun Yang said innocently.
He was a child after all, and he knew that no matter what he said, it would sound innocent. Therefore, he had to use this characteristic to talk to the Old Madam. He was not willing to use his parents” money to buy things for this annoying grandmother.
Chen Li, who was standing at the side, heard this and revealed an awkward expression. “Yun Yang, you can't say such things. These are the good things that mother bought from town.”
When Old Madam Yun heard this, she was not happy. Her smiling face suddenly became serious, and anger came out of her nostrils.
“Yun Shan, is this how you give me a New Year's gift? Now that you're so rich, you're still trying to fool me with cheap goods. Will you look down on your mother when you grow up? I'm telling you, your mother may be old, but I'm not muddleheaded!”
“That's not it, mom. Yun Yang is just making things up. How could we possibly give you cheap stuff? ” Yun Shan explained.
Seeing that the Old Madam was still very angry, Yun Xi did not show it on her face, but she was very happy on the inside.
Yun Yang's acting skills are getting better and better.
“Grandma, this is a famous tonic in the city. The ones Yun Yang saw were the cheaper ones and were just some leftover low-quality scraps. We bought the high-quality goods from a proper place.”
“Besides, isn't everything a junior gives a kind thought? Looking at grandma's attitude, it looks like you're determined to get something expensive. I didn't know that grandma was such a materialistic person.”
Yun Xi said lightly, making the Old Madam feel a little embarrassed. For a moment, she did not know whether to be angry or to laugh. She could only say something and let the few people follow her to the hall for a chat.
Yun Xi and her family smiled at each other. After such a long time, their performances were already very tacit.
It seemed that the Old Madam would not bring up the matter of giving more gifts again.
Paying a New Year's visit was nothing more than talking about how things had been recently, whether anything had happened at home, and showing concern for the health of the elders. Old Madam Yun did not stir up any more trouble, and Yun Xi also heard a lot of gossip because of this.
It turned out that Yun Gang than not been doing well recently either. He had some problems with his relationship with Guan Hong. Although he could already stand up and walk, the side effects of his body's condition were still present, and he could not carry out intense physical labor anymore.
He originally wanted to ask Guan Hong for a house, but she did not respond. Yun Lin's family could not help much, and they had to rely on support funds for the Old Madam.
“Yun Qiao's wife is just like that Guan girl. She hasn't done anything since she got married. Yun Lang was even expelled by the school, and that Guan girl didn't even help. What's with them?!”
The more the Old Madam spoke, the angrier she became. Yun Lin could only help her to calm her down.
It seemed that because no one had told her about these things usually and she had been too bored in the city, so Chen Li and Yun Shan would also go along with her words. The Old Madam actually told them everything that had happened recently, which allowed Yun Xi to obtain a lot of information.
“I don't know how my granddaughter, Yun Lian, is doing now. She went to the countryside with a lawyer surnamed Wu. How can she have a future? But it's good to see her happy.”
Speaking of Yun Lian, the Old Madam could not help but secretly wipe her tears. She truly loved this granddaughter and hoped that she could be happy.
“Speaking of which, Yun Lian said she's coming today. She'll probably be here soon. I have to go to the door and watch.” After saying that, Old Madam Yun stood up.
At this moment, a crisp sound was heard.
“Grandma, I'm here!”
