Chapter 638 She Understands Men
The old lady looked over when she heard the voice, and her old eyes were full of sharp light.
When she saw it was Zhao Yue, her eyes turned cold. She stood up from the futon and asked calmly, "Why didn't you knock on the door?"
If it were before, Zhao Yue would definitely say something flattering to cover it up.
But now she couldn't remember a single word and just sat on the ground blankly with red eyes.
"Grandma, why?"
"Why?" The old lady asked back while turning the Buddhist beads with her fingers.
Zhao Yue got up from the ground, tears in her eyes as she complained, "Why Shen Lan?"
Her voice was hoarse, as if she was extremely sad and disappointed: "You obviously watched me grow up, and I have known Cheng Ge for much longer than her. Why did you choose her and not me?"
"What's so good about Shen Lan? He's just a piece of rotten skin."
Zhao Yue looked at Shen Lan with disdain when she mentioned her.
The old lady raised her eyebrows: "You seem to look down on Shen Lan."
"Yes, I really hate her. I knew she was restless from the first moment I saw her. She clearly already has a fiancé, but she still shamelessly followed Brother Yun home and seduced him. She hides her appearance during the day and creates a contrast at night. Haha, she really understands men!"
Zhao Yue spoke excitedly, her mouth spitting. "Apart from my status and family background, how else am I unworthy of you? Shen Lan's family is bankrupt. She's even worse off than me. I guess the Shen family house we live in now was bought with the help of Brother Yan."
"Grandma, she's just a vain woman! She never liked Brother Yun himself, she liked the Xiao family's wealth!"
The old lady listened without changing her expression the entire time.
When she finished speaking, he looked up and asked, "Are you done?"
Zhao Yue pursed her lips and said, "I have a lot more to say, but I guess you don't have the patience to listen, so that's all for now."
The old lady snorted and laughed at what she said. "Yueyue, I watched you grow up, and I don't want to say anything too harsh. But I'm very unhappy to hear you insult my future granddaughter-in-law like this."
Zhao Yue was stunned: "Have you decided yet?"
"Yes, it's confirmed. Shen Lan is the future young lady of my Xiao family. This fact cannot be changed. No, that's not right. She hasn't agreed to Ah Yun yet. Once she and Ah Yun are settled, she will be the young lady of my Xiao family."
The old lady looked at Zhao Yue, and the gentleness in her eyes faded. At this moment, there was no trace of the usual kindness of an old lady, only the oppression from the superior.
"You said Shen Lan followed Ah Yun shamelessly. The truth is completely the opposite. Ah Yun used some trickery to bring her back to the Xiao family. If you're talking about being shameless, it should be Ah Yun who shamelessly begged Shen Lan."
"Also, the Shen family's house was not bought by Ah Yun, but by Shen Lan himself."
At first, the old lady planned to buy it for Shen Lan herself, but A'an told her that the house had already been bought.
Those kids used a trick to take the house from Lu Chuan. Liang Ye paid the money first, and Shen Lan paid it back later.
From all the things Shen Lan did, it was clear that he wasn't the type to be vain. Otherwise, with Ah Yun's wealth, wouldn't she be the one to come with just a flick of her finger? Would she still need to pursue him so hard?
The child's family went bankrupt and he had lived a hard life for so many years, but he was still noble at heart.
On the contrary, Zhao Yue...
Old Madam Xiao narrowed her eyes slightly. She was old, but her eyes were sharp. Zhao Yue was still too young, and she could tell what she was thinking from her eyes.
Saying that Shen Lan is vain is just judging others by oneself.
Zhao Yue's palms were sweating from being stared at by those eyes. She stiffened her neck and looked unconvinced: "Tell me, after all, you still think that I am not worthy of Brother Yan in terms of status. Shen Lan is bankrupt, and she is also a descendant of the wealthy Shen family, while I am just the daughter of a small housekeeper. You look down on me."
The old lady raised her eyelids and said in a low voice: "Do I look down on you, or... do you look down on yourself?"
