Chapter 1079: This is a Battle of Wits and Bravery (8)
Madame Ruan was a bit embarra.s.sed. She looked at Ling Tianya and then at her grandson. In the end, she didn’t say anything.
Ling Tianya felt that Madame Ruan was acting strangely. Normally, she wasn’t someone who would resign herself to adversity. Usually, if she met someone who spoke like this, she would have already lost her temper. However, today, she was abnormally patient with her elder sister and she seemed to find her words amusing and seemed to be afraid of making her unhappy.
Ruan Zeyan turned a deaf ear to Grandmother in law’s elder sister’s words, and he pulled Ling Tianya, who was still standing there, to sit down on the sofa.
Grandmother in law’s elder sister was clearly unhappy with Ruan Zeyan’s actions.
Madame Ruan smiled at Ling Tianya and Ruan Zeyan and said, “Your grandmother in law’s elder sister and her family usually live in City S, which is quite far from here. That’s why you haven’t met them before, Ling girl.”
“Oh, I see.” Ling Tianya nodded.
No matter how far away City S was, it was still in the same country. Right now, transportation was so well developed. If they really wanted to visit, they would be able to make the journey no matter what. At the very least, her marriage with Ruan Zeyan was important, and they should have come.
Not only did they not come, but they didn’t even acknowledge the event. Therefore, despite having been married into the family for over a year, Ling Tianya didn’t know of these people’s existence.
“Why have you come this time, Grandmother in law’s elder sister?” Ling Tianya directly asked.
Upon hearing this, Grandmother in law’s elder sister’s face immediately turned ugly. “Cuicui,” she said to Madame Ruan, “I’m taking back what I said before.”
Madame Ruan hesitated. “Which words?”
“The ones about your granddaughter in law’s mouth being sweet enough and her being obedient. I think that she is no different from your daughter in law. They are both decorative items!” Grandmother in law’s elder sister said bluntly.
At this moment, Ruan Zeyan’s expression was black, and his aura was cold and raw. If the other party wasn’t an elder, wasn’t a woman and he didn’t have to care about Madame Ruan’s honor, then perhaps that she would already not know where she is. She definitely would not be peacefully sitting here.
It was obvious that Grandmother in law’s elder sister had noticed that Ruan Zeyan was unhappy, and she started to panic. Ruan Zeyan had been cold and scary ever since he was young. That was still the case and now his aura was even more powerful.
Grandmother in law’s elder sister coughed in order to cover the anxiety that Ruan Zeyan was giving her and then continued, “What? I can’t come to the Ruan residence without a reason? Liao Cuicui is my younger sister. Do I need to report to you, a person of the younger generation, as an elder sister coming to visit her?”
Ling Tianya quickly smiled and shook her head, not showing any unhappiness on her face. “Naturally, you don’t have to. Our home always welcomes Grandmother in law’s elder sister.”
Upon hearing this, Grandmother in law’s elder sister unhappily rolled her eyes at Ling Tianya.
Madame Ruan looked toward Ling Tianya rather helplessly and used her gaze to tell Ling Tianya not to worry too much about what her sister was saying.
Ling Tianya nodded in understanding. Her heart was big, and she had no intention of letting this thing make her unhappy.
Madame Ruan said, “Ling girl, your grandmother in law’s elder sister, aunt and your cousin will be staying here for a while. Help arrange something for them.”
Ling Tianya nodded. “Okay.”
Xu Cheng, who had been silent the entire time, said to Ling Tianya, “Although grandmother in law’s younger sister told you to arrange things for us, there are a couple of things that I must tell you first. First of all, my grandmother’s room must be bright and sunny. It must be big and have a good flow of air. Also, my mother doesn’t like noise and therefore, you need to arrange a quiet place for her. It must also be a big room. My needs are much simpler. Any room will be fine as long as it’s clean, neat tidy and well-equipped. Also, you must arrange a servant each for my grandmother and my mother. It must be a woman. She must be healthy and clean. She can’t talk too much, and she must be nimble. She must have gone to college, and it is best if she has a master’s degree. As for my servant, it is much simpler. It must be a woman, and it is best if she can speak English. I like to communicate in English.”
