Chapter 1819: Offending Grandma During The Family Banquet
The Ding family had a main industry, but Ding Haonan, Mo Fei’s father, was separated from the Ding family. When they split from the Ding family, Grandma Ding favored her eldest son and gave him fifty percent of the assets in the family. Her two daughters each received twenty percent, leaving Ding Haonan with only ten percent.
Therefore, Ding Haonan’s current business was basically his own business, but it was doing better than Ding Group’s initial business.
Grandma Ding saw that although her youngest son was doing well, her eldest son’s business was getting worse and worse. All these years, she had been investing money from Ding Haonan into her eldest son’s business. Ding Haonan was a filial son, and his family was not desperate for that small amount of money. Additionally, Ding Haonan’s wife was a gentle person and she would not resent her husband too much for that. Therefore, Ding Haonan would not go against his mother.
However, even so, his mother was still indifferently cold to their family.
After hearing Ding Junhui say that, Mo Fei’s eyes widened into the size of copper bells. An old lady like that wanted them to come over for the New Year?
“There are so many people at home during the Lunar New Year every year. Do you know how much this costs? Grandma said that the atmosphere at Uncle and Auntie’s house isn’t as favorable, so they stay at our place every year. They eat and take whatever they want. Dad buys a lot of seafood and imported fruits every year. This reunion dinner costs at least a few hundred thousand,” Ding Junhui whispered into Mo Fei’s ear. He did not like Grandma at all. He was only respectful because his father was filial.
Mo Fei scoffed. Did the Ding family raise a group of locusts?
Her father looked smart, but how did he turn out to be a pushover?
What was the point of feeding people like that?
When Ding Junqi came back with Ding Yuejia, dinner was just about to start. When Ding Yuejia saw Mo Fei, he pounced on her and called her Auntie. Although he was still sad that his mother could not come, he cheered up when he saw his aunt. He really liked his aunt because she was very powerful—like a superhero.
Mo Fei picked up Ding Yuejia immediately and placed him around her neck, letting him fly around like a helicopter. “Do you miss Auntie?”
This week, Ding Junqi brought Ding Yuejia to Yunnan to look at the scenery. They had already been gone for a week.
“I miss Auntie, Uncle, and Grandpa and Grandma,” Ding Yuejia screamed excitedly.
“Oh, my. Oh, my! What are you doing?” Grandma Ding looked at the scene in front of her and immediately cried out as though she was worried that Mo Fei would smash her great-grandson. “Look at what the wild girl is doing!”
“That’s right. Second Sister-in-law, this child just came back and doesn’t know the rules. You should teach her too.” Eldest Aunt looked at Mo Fei with contempt.
Mrs. Ding looked embarrassed. “Feifei often plays like this with Yuejia. It’s fine.”
“How dare you say ‘often’? I think she wants to smash my great-grandson to death. Put him down now!” Grandma Ding yelled as she raised her crutch to hit Mo Fei’s father.
Mo Fei’s expression turned cold as she placed Ding Yuejia in Ding Junqi’s arms. Simultaneously, she grabbed Grandma Ding’s walking stick to prevent her from hitting her father.
“Old thing, I am unruly. So, stop making so much noise at my place. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not respecting my elders.” Mo Fei pushed her walking stick away.
“Mom.” Ding Haobei held the old lady and frowned at Mo Fei. “Feifei, right? No matter what, she’s your grandma after all.”
Looking at Ding Haobei’s righteous look, Mo Fei felt extremely disgusted. Was he not a locust that would only suck the blood off his younger brother?
“Feifei.” Ding Haonan grabbed his daughter’s arm and pulled her back. “Mom, Feifei is still young. Forgive her for being ignorant.”
Mo Fei was furious. Was she the ignorant one here?
