I became the Prime Minister's Adored Wife after Transmigrating

106 Adoptive Grandmother Comes Again!

Second Sister-in-law Shen proudly shook the butterfly earring hanging from her earlobe and smiled happily. “Anyway, our Ah Tao is not only beautiful and kind, but she also knows how to cook a lot of delicious food! Sister Shufang, don’t badmouth our Ah Tao so easily in the future. Otherwise, I’ll be unhappy. Remember that, alright?”

“But Ji Ah Tao did so many shameless things earlier…” Shufang frowned unhappily and muttered softly.

“Zhao Shufang!” Second Sister-in-law Shen suddenly scolded. The smile on her face disappeared, and her eyes became extremely sharp at this moment. “You’re not allowed to slander our Ah Tao behind her back again! What happened before was all made up by others. Our Ah Tao has never done anything shady. Her actions are upright and she can stand up straight! Unlike some gossipy little wives who always badmouths others behind their backs. It’s really disgusting!”

After saying this, Second Sister-in-law Shen glared at Shufang angrily.

Shufang was so embarrassed by Second Sister-in-law Shen that she ran away with red eyes—

The others present looked at each other.

Until an old woman in a grayish-brown dress walked into everyone’s line of sight.

“Second Sister-in-law Shen, look, has that old lady been staring at your mother-in-law?”

The old lady had a meticulous hairstyle. The crow’s feet at the corners of her eyes were not only weathered but also a little angry. Her eyes were fixed on Zhao Lanhua, making her look very strange.

“Mother?” Second Sister-in-law Shen hurriedly walked to Zhao Lanhua’s side and subconsciously hugged her arm. She whispered, “Mother, look to the left. There’s a strange old lady staring at you!”

Following the direction of Second Sister-in-law Shen’s finger, Zhao Lanhua raised her eyebrows slightly.

That old lady was none other than Ah Tao’s adoptive grandmother, Madam Xie.

Out of basic courtesy, Zhao Lanhua finally smiled and welcomed Madam Xie to the Shen residence.

At that moment, Ji Zhao was cutting chicken into pieces in the kitchen. She was preparing to make braised chicken this afternoon.

Just as she was wondering if she should make the braised chicken into a sweet and sour flavor, she suddenly heard the news of Madam Xie’s visit. Not only was she surprised, but she was also very stunned.

Ever since Old Master Ji’s funeral ended, she and Madam Xie had consciously stopped contacting each other.

In the central room of the Shen residence.

Zhao Lanhua poured a cup of mung bean soup and handed it to the silent Madam Xie. “You came all the way here. Are you thirsty?”

Madam Xie immediately picked up the bowl of mung bean soup and drank it in one gulp. “It’s alright, but there’s too little sugar in it, right? It’s not sweet enough!”

Zhao Lanhua chuckled and ignored her.

After all, there are some people that would climb on your heads if you treated them nicely!

Coincidentally, Madam Xie was such a person!

From the bottom of her heart, Zhao Lanhua looked down on Madam Xie, a woman who remarried before her husband’s bones had even gone cold. What was even more ridiculous was that she was willing to abandon her biological grandson for her own benefit!

“Our Ah Tao earned a lot of money for your Shen family, right?” A flattering smile suddenly appeared on Madam Xie’s face. “Now that I think about it, I really regret it. The Shen family spent two taels of silver to marry Ah Tao. Your Shen family has really gained a lot!”

Before Madam Xie came to Shanghe Village, she had already asked around!

She knew that Ah Tao not only had a close relationship with the Hongxing Restaurant in the county, but she also earned a lot of money!

No matter what, she had raised Ah Tao for so many years. Even if she did not contribute, she had worked hard!

Logically speaking, Ji Ah Tao had to be filial to her!
