"What do you mean by 'other people'?" asked the uncle. "Aren't we relatives? Why do we have to distinguish between relatives so clearly?"

Grandma couldn't help it: "Xiao San, what are you talking about? Come and eat!"

Seeing that grandma looked unhappy, the uncle didn't dare to say anything: "Listen to mom, let's eat first."

Grandma closed her eyes. Her youngest son didn't like to take advantage of others before. Why did he change so much now that he came back? "Xiaosan, don't say anything carelessly. Think about it before you speak."

My uncle thought that grandma would be obedient to him, after all, he hadn't been home for more than 20 years. He didn't expect that this was not the case, which made him feel a little disappointed.

The aunt-in-law secretly glanced at her uncle. This was not what she expected, and she felt a little dissatisfied.

The uncle patted his aunt's thigh gently, rubbed his mouth towards the bowl of rice, and indicated that he should eat first.

Liu Xingping, however, was the one who didn't understand what was going on. He swallowed the food in his mouth and asked, "Grandma, which room are we staying in?"

As he spoke, his eyes kept glancing at the luxurious house, he couldn't see enough.

They were in Mongolia, living in a dirty yurt, and everything was a mess. They had never seen a clean, luxurious, and beautiful villa like this one, and now it felt like a dream to be eating in it.

Grandma said, "This is your fourth aunt's home. Our home is not here."

These words made the four people's hearts sink. They thought they would live here from now on, but they didn't expect that this was not the case. They couldn't accept the disappointment in their hearts.

Liu Xingping immediately asked: "Grandma, why are you here?"

Grandma said, "I live here, and I have things to do here, so I asked someone to bring you over for dinner."

Shen Xuening looked at Yang Shanchuan.

Yang Shanchuan shrugged, saying that he didn't know why it was so weird and he was helpless.

Shen Xue Ning frowned. She had a smile on her face at first, but now that smile is gone completely. She will just have to take it one step at a time.

Shen Dong also pulled Liu Juan's sleeve, indicating what to do.

Liu Juan secretly made a gesture to keep quiet. Although it was her brother's family, she would definitely put her own family's interests first, so she would not say anything and let her mother take care of it.

No one else spoke, and the atmosphere in the room gradually grew colder.

Another person who remained silent was Liu Xingyan, the daughter of my uncle and aunt. Yang Shanchuan had not heard her say a word since she came out of the high-speed rail station.

Yang Shanchuan whispered to Shen Xuening: "Cousin, I suspect my uncle's daughter is mute."

A big question mark immediately appeared on Shen Xue Ning's forehead: "What do you mean?"

Yang Shanchuan said: "She didn't say anything the whole time."

Shen Xue Ning blinked her eyes: "She just called someone, but in a very low voice. She must be a person with low self-esteem, not someone who can't speak."

Yang Shanchuan glanced at the family of four and said, "If you ask me, they must favor boys over girls, otherwise their daughter wouldn't be like this."

Shen Xue Ning did not agree, after all, she did not understand yet: "Don't rush to draw conclusions, let's wait and see."

Yang Shanchuan understood what Shen Xuening meant: "Yeah."

Grandpa patted Liu Yujie on the shoulder and whispered, "Go and take care of them. Your uncle and his family haven't been back for so many years."

Liu Yujie was not a talkative person to begin with. Now after listening to what the four of them said, he felt disgusted and refused: "I won't go. I don't want to talk to them."

Grandpa just looked at Liu Yujie and didn't say anything for a long time.

Liu Yujie avoided his grandfather's gaze and did not compromise. He was not familiar with them and their thoughts were not correct, so he did not want to talk to them.

Grandpa was at a loss. He himself was not good at speaking and didn't know what to say.

So no one went to talk to them, only grandma sat closer to them and said a word from time to time.

After an hour of hesitation, the four of them finally finished their dinner. They ate seven or eight dishes, and their stomachs were bulging.

Liu Juan watched them eat and stood up and said, "Mom, take your third brother and his wife home to rest. I'll clean up here."

My aunt-in-law had no intention of cleaning up at all, so I had to do it myself.

Grandma Shen also hoped that grandma would take the people away quickly, so she stood up and said with a smile: "Yes, mother-in-law, you can take the children back to bed. It's so late, we can clean up."

Grandma also knew that her third son's family was not very popular, so she said, "Okay, I'll trouble you then."

However, at this time, Liu Xingping said: "I'm not going anywhere. I want to live here."

After hearing this, even grandma was not happy. She said seriously: "This is not your home. You can't live here. Come on, take your things. I'll ask your brother to take us back."

Grandpa, uncle, and aunt also wanted to go back, and one car was not enough, so Shen Xue Ning said to Liu Yujie: "Go drive a car, and go back together."

Liu Yujie felt that his uncle's family had made them lose face, so he quickly said, "Okay, thank you very much."

Shen Xue Ning is always generous: "It doesn't matter, the car is meant to be driven."

Liu Xingping asked quickly: "Cousin, are you letting your cousin drive that multi-million dollar car?"

Liu Yujie wanted to speak, but Shen Baohong spoke first: "That's my car, no one else can drive it. The company has many cars, you can choose any of the others."

Liu Xingping looked at Liu Yujie with dissatisfaction: "Who are you?"

"I am your cousin's cousin, and she listens to me." Shen Baohong knew that Shen Xuening also disliked Liu Xingping, so he dared to say this.

As expected, Shen Xue Ning did not say anything and let Shen Baohong do his thing.

Liu Xingping cursed: "Stingy!"

Shen Baohong didn't say anything back, he just wanted to keep the car.

Liu Yujie felt even more embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "Baohong, give me the car key that can be driven. I will send them back immediately and drive the car back in a while."

Shen Baohong walked over to open the coffee table, opened the drawer under the coffee table, and took out a set of car keys: "Next."

Liu Yujie cooperated well and took the car keys: "Mom and Dad, let's go."

The uncle and aunt stood up and walked towards Liu Yujie. At the same time, the aunt said to Shen Xuening, "Ningning, we will go back first and come back tomorrow."

Shen Xue Ning nodded and said politely: "Okay, you guys take care of my uncle and the others."

My aunt smiled and said, "We will."

So grandma took the reluctant Liu Xingping and called his uncle and aunt to go together. As for Liu Xingyan, she followed everyone silently.

Shen Xuening patted Yang Shanchuan on the back and whispered, "Please pay more attention to Liu Xingyan."

Since they are all girls, Shen Xuening is more patient with the somewhat autistic Liu Xingyan.

Yang Shanchuan nodded: "I understand."

When they arrived at the parking lot, everyone got in their cars. Yang Shanchuan and Liu Yujie drove, and the family left together.

Out of courtesy, the Shen family kept sending the people to the parking lot and only returned home when the car was no longer visible.

On the way back, the family didn't talk much. They really didn't know what to say. Anyway, they never thought that their uncle's family would be like this.

Shen Xue Ning broke the silence by saying, "Everyone should go to bed early, it's getting late."

Liu Juan came over and took Shen Xuening's arm: "Ningning, your uncle's family lives in a different environment from us, and their ideas are different. Just listen to what they say, and don't take it to heart."

Shen Xuening asked: "Mom, do you treat me as an outsider?"

Liu Juan was startled, then she laughed: "Of course not, you are my biological daughter, my good daughter. I am afraid that you feel uncomfortable but can't say it out loud..."

Shen Xue Ning expressed her attitude: "No, I don't have any business. After all, there are many different kinds of people. As long as they don't come to hang around me, I can tolerate it."

Liu Juan said: "I will talk to your grandma and ask her to discipline them."

Shen Xue Ning said jokingly: "Only grandma can discipline them."

"Yes, they definitely won't listen to us." Liu Juan didn't intend to force it. She would do what she should do. As for the rest, it depended on the relationship between the two families.

Shen Xue Ning comforted her, "Mom, just let it be."

Liu Juan nodded helplessly. She really didn't know what to say about this matter: "Yeah."

……

In the car.

Grandma took Liu Xingyan's hand and asked, "Yan'er, why don't you say anything? Are you unhappy to see grandma?"

She noticed this granddaughter from the beginning. She was almost twenty years old, but she kept her head down and was poorly dressed. She looked very shabby, which made her feel distressed.

The aunt-in-law pushed Liu Xingyan's arm and said fiercely: "Grandma is talking to you, are you deaf?"

Grandma glanced at her aunt-in-law. She was so fierce in front of her. She didn't know how to treat her daughter normally. She said, "Don't say anything. I'll talk to Yan'er."

My aunt-in-law smiled awkwardly, turned her head away and said no more.

Liu Xingyan felt the warmth coming from her hand, and after a while she mustered up the courage to say, "Grandma."

Grandma looked at Liu Xingyan lovingly and said, "Grandma has prepared a clean room for you. Take a good bath when you go back and have a good sleep at night. Tomorrow, grandma will take you to eat delicious food."

No one had ever been so kind to her. At home, her parents would either beat or scold her, and she didn't dare to speak. Liu Xingyan's eyes turned red when she heard this, and she was very moved. She had a good impression of this grandmother whom she had only met once: "Grandma, thank you."

Grandma said kindly, "Why are you being so polite to grandma? Just tell me if you need anything."

Liu Xingyan pursed her lips: "Yeah."

Seeing that grandma was so kind to her daughter, my aunt asked, "Mom, what kind of house do you live in? Can you arrange a better room for us?"

Grandma was not happy to hear this, but she endured it. After all, it was her first time meeting her third daughter-in-law: "When your eldest brother built his own house, he also built one for you. From now on, it will be your house. You can live here as long as you want."

My aunt-in-law smiled brightly: "They built a house for us. Is it like the one we saw just now?"
