After Being Reborn, I Tortured The Vicious Sister-in-law Chapter 279 – 279 Wei Xue’s Provocations

279 Wei Xue’s Provocations

She moved closer to Mother Wei and said softly, “Mom, that Xiao Xiao is too blind. You are clearly the matriarch of the Wei family, yet she said that Su Meng is. This is too much. No wonder she is so annoying.”

Mother Wei nodded, “The Xiao family is a small family. It’s normal for children to be taught to be like this. I originally didn’t plan to invite the Xiao family to your grandfather’s birthday banquet, but Mrs. Xiao shamelessly pestered me to ask for an invitation. I only gave her one because she had accompanied me to go shopping a few times. I didn’t expect her to actually call her family over and even let her daughter spout nonsense at the banquet. It looks like I have to stay away from them in the future.”

Wei Xue chimed in, “That’s right. Mom, you are kind and generous. They don’t know how to be grateful and have even embarrassed you. This is too much. In the future, I will also stay away from them.”

Wei Xue’s words were very agreeable to Mother Wei. She patted Wei Xue’s hand in satisfaction and said, “It’s still my precious daughter who understands me. It’s not in vain that I have always felt sorry for you.”

Hearing Mother Wei’s praise, Wei Xue leaned on Mother Wei and acted coquettishly. “Of course. Mom is the best to me. I will hate whoever Mom hates.”

Xiao Xiao did not know that she had been betrayed by Wei Xue. At this moment, she was still grateful to Wei Xue.

She felt that Wei Xue had helped her deal with Su Meng. This meant that she had accepted her as Wei Xue’s sister-in-law in advance.

Although this did not affect Su Meng much, she believed that one day, she would definitely pull Su Meng down from the position of the Wei family’s young madam.

This farce ended when Su Meng’s identity as a feng shui master was exposed. Everyone had a little more respect for Su Meng, of course, except for those who originally didn’t like Su Meng.

Su Meng saw that Xiao Xiao was no longer making things difficult for her, so she turned around and walked to her seat.

Originally, she wanted to speak to Xiao Xiao alone because the two of them had been talking at the banquet and it had already affected everyone. She didn’t expect Xiao Xiao to give up on asking in the end, so there was no need for her to look for her anymore.

The birthday banquet could finally officially begin. Everyone handed the gifts they had brought over to Grandfather Wei.

These people were basically people from the various large families. What they didn’t lack the most was money. Therefore, none of the gifts they gave were cheap. They were either antiques or jewelry. Each of them was more valuable than the last, even the Xiao family’s gifts were calligraphy and paintings that were worth several million yuan.

However, there was one thing that Su Meng found funny. Because of what had just happened, she found out that the girl who had been making things difficult for her was actually the young miss of the Xiao family.

Therefore, she had been paying attention to Xiao Xiao, and at the same time, she had also seen Xiao Xiao’s parents. Before she gave the gift, Xiao Xiao’s mother did not look too good, and she seemed to be reluctant to give it up.

This made Su Meng guess that the Xiao family did not look as rich as they appeared to be. Giving such a valuable gift was purely to show off.

Of course, she was not laughing at the fact that the Xiao family did not have money, because Su Meng herself did not have money. She was laughing at the fact that the Xiao family had pretended to be rich in order to blend into the upper class. They did not belong to this circle, but had forcibly tried to blend in. In the end, it would definitely backfire.

However, all of this had nothing to do with Su Meng.

The scene of gifting was really lively. On the surface, everyone was giving Grandfather Wei their blessings, but in reality, they were just comparing themselves. After all, the Wei family was a big tree. Everyone wanted to build a good relationship with the Wei family. Of course, they would do their utmost to please Grandfather Wei and then squeeze out their competitors.

Su Meng sat next to Grandfather Wei and watched these people come up to give gifts. This scene made Su Meng think of the scene of the ministers going to court in the TV series. She felt inexplicably amused.

The gifts were given very quickly. It didn’t take long for the gifts to be finished. Finally, it was the Wei family who gave gifts to Grandfather Wei.

Wei Xue also prepared gifts for Grandfather Wei. They were a pair of porcelain that she had bought from the tomb raider. The porcelain was well preserved and even the patterns on it were clearly seen.

However, although it looked good, it was an unlucky thing.

When Su Meng saw Wei Xue give the things to Grandfather Wei, she frowned.

She didn’t expect Wei Xue to actually give things to Grandfather Wei that had brought been out from a tomb. She didn’t know if she was really stupid or if she was deliberately trying to harm Grandfather Wei. One couldn’t blame Su Meng for being wary of Wei Xue. It was true that it was Wei Xue’s black-cut character that made her have no choice but to guard against it.

However, there were many people now, so she couldn’t say anything. She decided to wait until the birthday banquet was over before telling Grandfather Wei to put away the pair of porcelain ware that Wei Xue gave him.
