“Are you the granddaughter that just returned? She is your biological grandmother after all. How could you treat her like this? Don’t you have any humanity left in you?”

Lan Anran eyed Feng Xiulan from head to toe. She had a branded bag, a designer watch, and even the scarf she wore was branded. She smiled.

“Grandma Feng, I don’t think I am her biological granddaughter. My father is seriously ill and her eldest son is being held in jail. If he is her biological son, which mother would be able to hold a birthday party while their son is suffering in a ward at the hospital?

Grandma Feng, you are dressed in branded clothes, your family must be very blessed. What would you do if something like this happened to you?” Lan Anran asked.

Feng Xiulan tuned to look at Zhao Xiumei. She hadn’t heard her mention these things.

“Xiulan, don’t be deceived. These things didn’t happen at all. This girl is very evil. I’ve been bullied by her countless times in her house. Don’t you understand after seeing the wreath? Do you believe what she said? I don’t know what sin I committed in my past life to have such an unfilial granddaughter.”

Zhao Xiumei started to cry as she spoke.

“Grandma, are you sure there isn’t such a thing? Are you very, very sure there isn’t such a thing? What if I video call Mom now and Dad is lying in the intensive care unit? I really don’t know if he is your biological son or if he is adopted. Why don’t you know how to cherish him?

He is your biological son, but you act as though nothing has happened. That’s why I said she isn’t my biological grandmother at all.”

Lan Anran took out her phone, pretending to call.

Zhao Xiumei looked at the situation and spoke hurriedly.

“Xiulan! I didn’t want to talk about this, but since that brat came to make a fuss today, I’ll tell you everything. Ever since she came back, I haven’t had a good day. I don’t know what she said to her father, but her father is only paying me 2,000 yuan in retirement money. What can 2,000 yuan do in this

society? It’s not as high as my pension previously was.

Her father was admitted to the intensive care unit after an operation a few days ago, but she insisted on treating his illness. What kind of illness can a little girl cure? You see, her mother was bewitched by her and actually agreed. This caused my son to go into shock and he almost passed away.

Fortunately, he was saved. I didn’t have a choice, so I could only run to the temple and pray to Buddha.

The master there told me that my birthday banquet could bring him good luck. I thought my son would get better soon, so I wanted to ask them for some money for the banquet. My second daughter-in-law didn’t believe me at all and thought that I just wanted money. I didn’t have a choice, so I had to get

my eldest daughter-in-law to pawn my jewelry in exchange for the birthday banquet. I did it for the sake of my son, but now, I’m being accused. I’m really unwilling.”

Zhao Xiumei felt wronged.

“aunty Xiulan, my mom is really thinking for Tingyum’s sake. That jade bracelet was passed down from our ancestors and we really don’t have any money left. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to host this banquet. Who would disregard their children’s health and organize a birthday party here

heartlessly?” Xu Yanshan said while fanning the flames.

Feng Xiulan nodded. She thought that with her understanding of Zhao Xiumei, she probably wouldn’t do something so overboard. Then, she looked at the fierce-looking girl in front of her with a malicious intent in her eyes.

“Your grandma really wants to hold a birthday party for her son. How can a mother not feel bad for her son? She would rather use her birthday party to bring good luck to her son. You should be supporting her. By sending wreaths like this, you are disrespecting your grandma. You have no manners at all.

You are indeed a wild girl from the countryside!”

Lan Anran smiled. She actually admired Zhao Xiumei for being able to bewitch brainless people into standing with her.

“Sis, what are you laughing about? Aren’t Grandma Xiulan’s words right? You’re disrespecting her.”

Lan Yaxin exaggerated.

“Grandma Feng, you must have eaten too many prawns and fish. How much do you know about my grandma? She used all her retirement fee and pension on her imprisoned eldest son. When everything was spent, their family would rely on my father. They would all rely on my father’s hospital to survive.

Do you know why Uncle was imprisoned? It was because he dissected the dead patients in my father’s hospital morgue. It caused my father’s hospital to close down for a long time. They even tried to use my death to take over my father’s hospital.

Don’t you know about the matter? For a mother like her to be so kind as to help her son bring good luck using her birthday party, it must have been for her own sake. In the past, hasn’t it always been a joyous occasion? How could you just not have one this year?”

Lan Anran’s words made Feng Xiulan waver again. She indeed knew that Zhao Xiumei was a prideful person. Previously, she had also attended Lan Anran’s funeral and witnessed the entire incident. She tured back to look at Zhao Xiumei without a word.

“Did she tell you that my father was busy with work and couldn’t come to her banquet? Did she tell you how badly I treated her and how I bullied her? After Uncle went to jail, his whole family moved into my house.

After she settled down, she secretly looked for the title deed, wanting to make the house hers. Grandma, you did that, didn’t you?

Aunt and Yaxin live next door to me. They installed cameras in my room to spy on my privacy. Isn’t that true? Grandma accused me of having an affair for no reason, that I am an embarrassment to the Lan Family. Is that what a biological grandma should do?”

Lan Anran didn’t care about Zhao Xiumei’s reputation and exposed everything she did. Zhao Xiumei wanted to burrow into the ground.

Xu Yanshan walked out and explained forcefully.

“Anran, what have you gotten yourself into? Aren’t we doing all of this for your sake? It was a misunderstanding, how could you take it so seriously? Don’t think that just because you are married to the Mo Family and become the young lady of the Mo Family, you are no longer a member of the Lan Family.

You will be held legally responsible for saying this.

Your grandma can at least sue you for the crime of being unfilial! Today is your grandma’s birthday party and we’re here to cheer your dad up. Don’t cause any trouble. You aren’t young anymore, you need to know how to behave.”

Xu Yanshan threatened.

“Aunt wants to punish me, but I have a lot of crimes I can accuse you of too.”

Lan Anran smiled sinisterly and walked to the table. She clenched her slender fingers and yanked the tablecloth!

The food and tea on the table were all flung to the ground.

Lan Anran then flipped the table domineeringly and spoke amidst the remains of the food.

“Tet it pass! But don’t think I don’t know what you’re doing, Just because I don’t say anything doesn’t mean I’m indulging you! My dad is suffering while you are happy here. You don’t deserve to be a mother! You’ll have to pay the price for squeezing my dad dry.”

At this moment, Mo Jinrong suddenly appeared at the entrance of the auditorium.
