When Shao Wanwan saw that Zhang Suran was going to embarrass Shao Moli in front of everyone, she was really annoyed.

She walked over and pulled Zhang Suran back a little, saying, "Sister, you help Grandma inside first. Mom, Zheyuan, and I will carry these things."

Zhang Suran only noticed her grandmother after hearing this. She was a little embarrassed, but quickly regained her composure.

Shao Wanwan quickly noticed Zhang Suran's indifferent expression.

I called her to say I was coming back, and I also mentioned that my grandmother would be coming back with me.

As it turned out, Zhang Suran seemed completely unaware that her grandmother had also returned. Upon seeing her grandmother, she not only showed no welcome but also appeared rather impatient.

Shao Wanwan couldn't judge Zhang Suran as mean or cold because of this incident, since the book didn't mention her grandmother's past, and she had no way of knowing about it.

But Grandma has taken care of Shao Moli for so many years, that's for sure. Zhang Suran herself didn't even care about her own daughter. Grandma raised Shao Moli so well, she's well-mannered and has excellent grades. This is something that deserves to be remembered for Grandma!

Although Shao Wanwan was indignant, she didn't say anything because so many people were watching.

Shao Moli quickly helped her grandmother out of the car.

At this moment, Aunt Qian, who had sharp eyes, noticed the hearing aid on her grandmother's ear and immediately came up and asked, "Grandma, is that a hearing aid? Xiao Zhang is so filial, he even bought you this. I heard it's not cheap! I've only seen it on TV. My mother-in-law is almost deaf, and when she went to the hospital, the doctor said there are these. My husband couldn't bear to get one for his elderly mother. Tsk tsk, that's really great."

Aunt Qian and Zhang Suran were rivals, but seeing how capable her son-in-law was, she thought she could flatter him and try to win him over. Little did she know that her flattery would backfire.

Zhang Suran looked embarrassed.

Grandma glanced at Aunt Qian and said, "Thank you! Yes! Filial piety, we're all filial."

Grandma didn't tell the truth, for fear that Zhang Suran would lose face.

Zhang Suran said "we'll talk later" to Aunt Qian, and then quickly had Shao Moli help her grandmother into the alley.

Grandma couldn't help but look around. She had actually only been to this alley a few times, as Zhang Suran rarely invited her to stay here.

Shao Wanwan followed Zhang Suran into the house.

She hasn't come back even once since she went to university.

Upon entering the house, she found that she hardly recognized the place. Many of the appliances were new, and the color TV in the living room had been replaced with a larger one.

Even the old roof was repainted, and the kitchen and bathroom were completely renovated.

Shao Wanwan subconsciously looked at Jiang Zheyuan.

Jiang Zheyuan shrugged slightly.

Zhang Suran glanced at Shao Wanwan a little guiltily, then took the initiative to say, "Zheyuan is filial. Knowing that your brother is about to get a new wife, he paid for the renovation of the house. All these appliances were bought by Zheyuan."

Zhang Suran knew she couldn't hide it, so she decided to flatter Jiang Zheyuan.

Shao Moli was initially surprised by the changes in her family, but when she heard Zhang Suran say that Jiang Zheyuan had paid for everything, her face immediately stung with embarrassment.

Shao Wanwan and Jiang Zheyuan's engagement banquet hasn't even been held yet, and Zhang Suran is already acting like this. Isn't it just because the Jiang family is using Shao Wanwan and Jiang Zheyuan's marriage to pay off their debts?

In Zhang Suran's eyes, she didn't believe in feelings or anything like that.

While Jiang Zheyuan was unable to say anything, they took advantage of the opportunity to make a quick buck.

The renovation of the kitchen and bathroom cost at least six thousand yuan, and the TV, refrigerator, washing machine, and some other odds and ends cost Jiang Zheyuan at least fifteen thousand yuan in total.

Shao Moli had been working part-time and knew the prices of the goods very well.

Zhang Suran really dared to ask for 15,000 yuan. If she asked for these things in batches, she would have to call Jiang Zheyuan at least seven or eight times.

Jiang Zheyuan hadn't even told Shao Wanwan.

She had already guessed it from the same shocked expression on Shao Wanwan's face.

Jiang Zheyuan really didn't want anything from the Shao family; he only wanted Shao Wanwan.

While she felt gratified for Shao Wanwan, she also felt a pang of sadness. The bitterness made her eyes sting, so she made an excuse to go to the bathroom, where she couldn't help but burst into tears in front of the mirror.

Zhang Suran naturally noticed Shao Moli's unusual behavior. Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, she found an excuse to pull Shao Moli aside and said, "What's the use of crying? It's not true. I've hidden the household registration book. You still have a chance. Find an opportunity to be alone with Jiang Zheyuan, then tug at his clothes and say that Jiang Zheyuan did something to you, and their marriage will fall through. Then you'll still have a chance."

Jiang Zheyuan's generosity and lack of concern made Zhang Suran realize that she must make Jiang Zheyuan her son-in-law so that she could easily say she would support Shao Pei in the future.

Otherwise, there will be too much gossip behind the scenes.

Everyone around her knew that Shao Wanwan was her adopted daughter, not her biological daughter.

Shao Moli had already hidden her tears, but upon hearing such unbelievable words, they flowed freely. "Mom, why are you saying this? I'm your daughter. Don't you care about my reputation at all? Let me tell you, their relationship is great, and I can't break them up. I advise you not to have any ulterior motives. Shao Pei is our responsibility, not Wanwan's, and certainly not Jiang Zheyuan's. You've already made him buy you so many things; that's enough to impress Shao Pei's in-laws. They've treated you well."

Shao Moli is prone to crying, and she was afraid she wouldn't be able to explain herself clearly, so she spoke quickly and urgently, while constantly crying, making her look extremely pathetic.

Zhang Suran was hit where it hurt and slapped Shao Moli across the face. "What did you say? I'm your mother, and you're siding with outsiders."

Although Zhang Suran treated her badly, he rarely hit her, especially after she became an adult.

The slap stunned Shao Moli, who looked on in disbelief. She stopped crying and looked at Zhang Suran with some resentment. "Mom, I advise you not to have any crooked ideas. I don't have the ability, and neither do you. You can't control Wanwan, and you can't control Jiang Zheyuan. I won't be controlled by you in the future either."

Shao Wanwan heard the noise coming from the kitchen.

She walked over and saw Shao Moli cover her face and run away.

Shao Wanwan hurriedly followed.

Zhang Suran has been acting very strangely lately, and Shao Wanwan, based on what she read in the book, has a pretty good idea of ​​what's going on.

In the book, the author couldn't wait for the original owner to get married and register their marriage so that they could stop caring about him and take no responsibility for him.

But now she's acting out of character, which means she's sensed Jiang Zheyuan's wealth and wants to bring Jiang Zheyuan and Shao Moli together.

In the book, Zhang Suran didn't actually have much contact with Jiang Zheyuan before they got married.

They only knew that the Jiang family was rich, but they had no real sense of it and were just guessing, much like a farmer guessing that the emperor used a golden hoe to till the land.
