Chapter 622: 177: Slapping Shangguan Furong_1
Shangguan Xi initially held great expectations for Daya, whom she had not yet met, and her future little sister.
Being told this by Shangguan Furong, her heart ached terribly.
She was a little bit of a neat freak.
“Aunt, I think you might be exaggerating a bit?” Shangguan Xi frowned slightly.
Shangguan Furong chuckled, “Exaggerating? Wait until you see her in person, not everyone can be like your Aunt Lin Fang. Beautiful with a career. I’m just giving you a heads up, so you will be prepared. To save you from shocking our esteemed guest later.”
Xu Lian was drinking her tea, upon hearing this, she set down her cup and chimed in: “You can’t judge a book by its cover. Lin Fang may shine, but her character is lacking. True beauty lies within the soul. Xiaoxi, don’t overthink things, you should trust your father’s tastes.”
Xu Lian was also curious as to what kind of woman this Daya was that Shangguan Dehui would pine for her for so long.
Back when her sister Xu Fen married Shangguan Dehui, Xu Lian was completely against it.
Because Shangguan Dehui did not love Xu Fen.
But the younger Xu Lian had fallen in love with Shangguan Dehui at first sight and was determined to marry only him.
Because of pressure from Lady Shangguan, Shangguan Dehui was reluctantly forced to marry Xu Fen.
Fortunately, after their marriage, Shangguan Dehui changed for the better, their marital life was harmonious. Sadly, Xu Fen was not fortunate, two years after being married to Shangguan Dehui, she passed away.
Since then Shangguan Dehui never remarried.
Xu Lian knows that Shangguan Dehui still had Daya in his heart.
But she never blamed Shangguan Dehui.
Because Shangguan Dehui had fulfilled his responsibility towards Xu Fen.
And raised their two children to adulthood.
It was about time he found his own happiness.
After so many years, it was fate that Shangguan Dehui and Daya could meet again.
If not, it would imply that Daya was a rather scheming person.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have encountered each other again after so many years.
As aunt of Shangguan Xu and Shangguan Xi, Xu Lian would never allow a cunning woman to become their stepmother.
But she has not met Daya yet, so it wasn’t right to jump to conclusions.
Hearing Xu Lian speak , Shangguan Xi felt a little better, but she was still nervous.
If her little sister turned out to be a sloppy kid with a runny nose hanging from her face, she really couldn’t stand it…
Shangguan Furong laughed and said: “Sister Xu Lian, you are right, inner beauty is the most beautiful. Daya’s heart must be beautiful, otherwise, my brother would not have liked her! After all, my brother is a college professor, and Daya is an illiterate peasant woman who’s been herding cattle since she was a child, yet has two children of her own. The youngest one had been divorced while she was still in her confinement period after childbirth. Such a person must have a beautiful soul!”
These words seemed to praise Daya.
In fact, they were derogatory.
How could a good woman be divorced from her husband during her confinement period?
How could an illiterate rural woman be worthy of her brother?
After speaking, Shangguan Furong turned to Shangguan Xi, “Xiaoxi, you young people always value common language, don’t you? I think your dad and your Aunt Daya must have a lot in common.”
Shangguan Xi opened her mouth, not knowing how to respond to Shangguan Furong.
The gap between Aunt Daya and her dad was too big!
How could these two people possibly have a common language?
“Brother.” Shangguan Xi nudged Shangguan Xu. He put down the newspaper in his hand, “What is it?”
“What’s your take on this?”
“As long as Dad is happy. Of course, a good match is also important.”
He is a bank president; how could his mother be an illiterate who cannot appear in public?
It wouldn’t sound good if word got out.
If Aunt Daya was really uncouth, he wouldn’t mind if his father kept her on the side.
At this the worry in Shangguan Furong’s heart subsided.
It seemed that Shangguan Xu also was not satisfied with this Daya!
Lady Shangguan glanced at everyone, she had a plan in mind.
The car was fast and soon arrived at the Shangguan Residence.
The Shangguan mansion was very luxurious, but it was nothing to Ni Cuihua, who had seen private jets and castles in M Country.
If Ni Cuihua were still the Ni Cuihua who had just arrived in the city a year ago, she would have been stunned by now.
