Petty
Because they had an appointment with the doctor in the afternoon to take the baby for a physical examination, the mother and daughter left the bedroom when it was almost time. The two elders could not bear to leave so quickly. Grandma Si stared at the boy in Tan Ming’s arms without blinking and said, “Granddaughter-in-law, let’s accompany you. Our chauffeur drives steadily. It will be dangerous if you take a taxi and encounter a reckless driver. It won’t be good if you’re frightened.”
With a private car to pick them up, Tan Ming naturally wouldn’t refuse. She smiled and replied, “Then I’ll have to trouble Grandpa and Grandma to accompany us.”
Grandpa Si stroked his goatee and smiled. “We’re willing to accompany our great-grandchildren as many times as they need.”
The atmosphere here was joyous and harmonious. On the other hand, Mother Si did not want to waste any more time. Anyway, she had only come at the request of the two elders, so she found an excuse to leave first.
Tan Ming and Li Mei took the Si family’s car to the hospital. Because of Jiang Ling’s care, they didn’t have to queue up. It didn’t take long for them to finish the checkup.
The two elders, each happily holding one child each, teased and doted on the children as they walked. Just as they reached the underground parking lot and were about to get into the car, two familiar people got out of the car beside them.
Tan Si called out to them sweetly, “Sister, Grandpa, Grandma.”
When Tan Ming looked at her, Tan Si specially perked out her stomach and placed her hand on it.
Although Tan Si was wearing sunglasses and a fisherman’s hat that covered half of her face, Tan Ming could still clearly feel her blatant provocation.
When Wang Li saw that Old Master Si and his wife were also there, she went forward with a fawning smile. “In-laws, in-laws, Tan Si’s due date is in these two days. She’s being hospitalized early today to wait for delivery. I didn’t expect to meet you guys so coincidentally. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the two of you. Your bodies are still as strong as before. Is it convenient for you to live in the suburbs?”
Grandpa Si nodded at the two of them.
Although Grandma Si was dissatisfied with Tan Si seducing her grandson, Madam Tan and her husband had a good relationship with Tan Ming after all. She smiled politely and said, “It’s pretty good.”
Seeing this, Wang Li was a little dissatisfied with their cold attitude. However, when she thought about how Tan Si would be able to marry into the Si family immediately after Si Cheng’s divorce, she did not care about the attitude of these two old things. She turned around and saw her adopted daughter standing at the side. She snorted coldly. “Tan Ming, are you mute?! You don’t even know how to greet your elders.”
Tan Ming did not want to complicate matters and greeted her in a low voice, “Mom.”
When Wang Li saw that her adopted daughter was as obedient as ever, a smug look appeared on her face.
Tan Si looked at the forbearing expression on Tan Ming’s face but did not want to let her off. She took off his sunglasses and put on a gentle expression as she reprimanded, “Sister, what kind of attitude is that? There’s no smile on your face. Even if she’s not your biological mother, she raised you up to this age. How can you be so ungrateful?”
Tan Si knew that these two old fellows from the Si Family didn’t like her. Wasn’t it because they despised her for being a mistress and felt that her identity had embarrassed the Si Family? She would let them know now that their granddaughter-in-law was an ingrate who was unfilial to her parents!
When Tan Ming heard such shameless words, she clenched her fists. Raising her to this age?! It was only accurate to say she had raised herself to this age.
Before Tan Ming could say anything, Li Mei couldn’t help but step forward and expose Tan Ming’s life in the Tan family.
Tan Si dared to say that because she was certain of Tan Ming’s cowardly personality. However, she never expected that Li Mei, who knew the truth, would interrupt halfway.
Wang Li frowned and looked at Li Mei. She questioned, “Who are you? What does our family’s matter have to do with an outsider like you? I don’t know what that ingrate, Tan Ming, said to deceive you, but I treat Tan Ming better than my own daughter. If you dare to spread rumors and slander again, I’ll call the police to arrest you!”
When Grandma Si and Grandpa Si heard this, they were stunned for a moment. They were puzzled as to why Wang Li didn’t know the distant relative of the Tan Family. However, before they could figure it out, their attention was diverted by the series of events that followed.
Li Mei was so angry at Wang Li’s shamelessness that she laughed out loud. “You’re good to Tan Ming? So good that you let your biological daughter seduce her own brother-in-law? So good that you forced your adopted daughter to get pregnant and divorce her husband to give up her position to your biological daughter? I hope you and your daughter can enjoy that as soon as possible!”
Grandma Si knew that Tan Ming was an adopted daughter, but she didn’t know the inside story. At this moment, she looked at Wang Li with disdain. It wasn’t that she couldn’t afford to raise her. It was just an extra mouth to feed. She couldn’t tolerate this. How petty of her.
