Sheng Xuan was helpless and could only sigh secretly, "Mom, you are so old now, don't you know what to say and what not to say?"

"I know you all don't like me." Cui's face finally darkened. "You all keep talking nonsense to me. Do you think I'm old and confused and can't hear you?"

"Mom, you are just imagining things. Who told you what to say?" Sheng Xuan said, "Everything I said today is for your own good. You should just enjoy your life now and don't worry about other things. If you need anything, just let me know."

"Your Third Aunt is my only old friend in the village. You have to inform her when Xiaolan gets married this time." Cui finally said what she wanted. "I know your Third Aunt offended you last time, and you don't like her now..."

Sheng Xuan had no choice but to respond vaguely, "Mom... I'll go when I'm free... Mom, as long as their family doesn't cause trouble for others, no one will bully them... It doesn't matter whether I go or not..."

Knowing that Cui had nothing important to say, Sheng Xuan stood up. He originally thought that Cui had something serious to talk to him about, but he didn't expect that it was about someone else's family. There were some things that Sheng Xuan didn't want to explain too much to Cui, because she couldn't understand anyway. "Mom, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. You stay behind. If you have anything, send Xiaohong to find me."

As Sheng Xuan was talking, he walked out of the upper room, gathered with his wife and children, and went home together.

When they got home, Zhang asked Sheng Xuan what the old lady had talked to him about for a long time in the room, and Sheng Xuan said nothing. Sheng Xuan didn't want to tell Zhang and the two children about some of Cui's unpresentable words. Because some of Cui's words were too hurtful, he didn't want to make his wife and children angry.

Obviously, Zhang and Xiaolan didn't believe that Cui and Shengxuan had been whispering in the room for so long without saying anything practical. Shengxuan had no choice but to say what he could, "They just want me to go to our third aunt's house and invite them to attend Xiaolan's engagement party."

Zhang asked, "Did you agree?"

Sheng Xuan shook his head.

Zhang said, "This must have been instigated by the Third Aunt. I don't know where she got the time to spare. She kept instigating the old lady, and the old lady kept listening. Then she turned around and ordered you around."

Xiao Lan couldn't help laughing when she heard this. Cui was not someone who could be easily instigated. She did this just to make plans for herself. To put it bluntly, she just wanted to raise her status and show her nobility.

"We don't really have any relatives with the three aunts' families. They are just better off with my mother... They just want to take advantage of our family's power to make a profit. I can't stand people like this the most." Sheng Xuan frowned. "How can I let him take advantage of me? What kind of person do they think I am..." Sheng Xuan was a little angry when he said this.

When Sheng Xuan came back to watch the renovation of the house, the third aunt's family came to Sheng Xuan and asked him for help. The reason was that his son opened a clothing store in the town, but the business was not good. There was only one tailor shop in the town, which was an old store. The owner was a very peaceful person and was quite popular in that place. The third aunt's family came to Sheng Xuan, and Sheng Xuan was not stupid. Naturally, he understood what he meant and rejected him on the spot.

There is a word "righteousness" before the word "profit". Besides, they are all from the same village and everyone makes a living by their own ability. He naturally cannot encourage such evil spirits. Sheng Xuan was unwilling to do such an immoral thing himself, and naturally would not help others do it. However, when he knew that the three aunts were going to do this, he warned them honestly and told them not to do it.

This man could not get help from Sheng Xuan, but secretly did several disgusting things under the banner of Sheng Xuan. Fortunately, Xiao Lan's family got wind of these things, and the tailor's family who was squeezed also knew the character of Xiao Lan's family. They suspected that he deliberately messed with them, so they asked someone to find Sheng Xuan to plead for mercy.

When Sheng Xuan found out about this, he was furious and sent someone to find the third aunt's family to give him a good scolding. From then on, he no longer regarded the third aunt and the third uncle as elders.

"This reminds me that when the old man was alive, he didn't like Third Aunt's family," said Zhang.

Zhang's words reminded Sheng Xuan of the past. When he was alive, Mr. Sheng did not get along with the third aunt's family. Sheng Xuan hummed, "The old man is very proud. Although he doesn't get along with them in his heart, he still looks good on the surface."

"Our family is all happy to come back. I didn't want to mention this matter, but if I don't say it, I will feel suffocated in my heart," Zhang said what was in her heart. "Our Xiaolan's marriage is such a big thing. If the old lady had a little affection in her heart, she would not be like this today... She also said that she was poor and had nothing to give. Do you think our family would still be thinking about her gold, silver, etc.? Even if she just gave a handkerchief, it was her intention... What's her heart like? How can she live so comfortably? I was ignored by her again today. It's okay for her to look down on me. Who made me surnamed Zhang? But she never took Xiaoting and Xiaolan seriously... This person, how can she live like this?"

"Mom, forget it. I've let it go after seeing what happened to my eldest sister. I never expected anything from her brother." Xiao Lan saw that Zhang was getting angrier and angrier, so she tried to comfort her, "As long as she doesn't make a fuss and can live a quiet life, that's better than anything else."

Sheng Xuan couldn't refute Cui on this matter. He racked his brains, "Grandma, she has been that kind of person in her life. Let's... let's not bother with her. Let's forget about what happened today... Now our family has everything we need... We don't lack her... her kindness..."

At this time, in the old house of the Sheng family, after seeing off Sheng Xuan and his family, Sheng Nuo, Sheng Hong, and Xu returned to the house. Everyone saw Cui sitting on the kang with an expressionless face.
