Chapter 218: Ye Hua's Style
Mr. Wang glanced at Ye Hua, suspiciously wondering if this woman knew Jiang Xiaoxiao?
Otherwise, how could she ask such a specific question like that, which strangers typically wouldn't?
"Hey, you little rascal, you still know to come back, huh! Wow, bringing home such a pretty girl."
Just as Jiang Xiaoxiao imagined, the old man's face was square with thick eyebrows and big eyes, his gaze fierce with an impressive aura.
Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled and greeted him.
"Hello, Uncle Wang! I'm a friend of Mr. Wang."
This self-introduction was not quite standard.
The old man glanced at his son, thinking his boy was thirty-one and still unmarried, could he have suddenly become enlightened?
But the girl in front of them was quite young.
This son of his, was he thinking of robbing the cradle?
"Dad, look here, this is the good stuff Xiao Xiao brought for you; it's called peach wine. It's an ancestral secret recipe from Xiao Xiao's family, said to be especially beneficial for rheumatic legs. She specially heard from me that you've got rheumatism and sent it over.
It's definitely good stuff."
Though Mr. Wang was thirty-one, he still acted like a child, proudly placing the bottle from his arms onto the table for his father to see.
Boasting with saliva flying everywhere.
The old man didn't care whether it could cure rheumatism; it's an old ailment of his that countless doctors haven't helped.
But once hearing it was peach wine, he perked up; as long as it was alcohol-related, he was interested.
His eyes gleamed staring at the glass bottle, though a bit deflated seeing it was filled with peaches, but the pink liquid still looked quite pretty.
He reluctantly accepted.
The old lady coughed.
The old man immediately sat upright, looking straight ahead.
"Young lady, thank you for your kindness, but the old man can't drink alcohol; I'm afraid your peach wine will be in vain due to good intentions."
Mr. Wang chuckled, "Mom, don't be like this; this is really good stuff. Plus, it's peach wine, it must be low in alcohol content. Let Dad at least try it, it took me a lot to get this ancestral recipe, don't let Xiao Xiao's intentions go to waste."
Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded, "Auntie, this wine really has low alcohol content. Drinking a little bit is great for your skin and metabolism. Of course, it's still alcohol; you shouldn't drink too much, just a small glass at a time.
This peach wine not only helps with rheumatism but also benefits chronic conditions and diseases due to low immunity. Drinking it long-term could even strengthen immunity to the point common colds and fevers won't be an issue."
Honestly speaking, she wasn't exaggerating a bit; this is space-produced, guaranteed to cure all.
The old lady was amused by this little girl.
The girl's voice was truly pleasant, and the way she spoke was genuinely agreeable.
Although whether the wine had such effects or not was uncertain, hearing it was good for women's skin and beneficial for immune diseases was music to any woman's ears.
Regardless of its effectiveness, just for the girl's attitude, she had to show her stance.
Just about to speak, Ye Hua interjected.
And it was a rebuke.
"Jiang Xiaoxiao, have you had enough of your antics, is this a place for your shenanigans? What ancestral secret recipe? The Fang family doesn't have any ancestral secret recipe. How have you learned to scam and deceive? Stooping so low to flatter leadership, even resorting to these tricks.
You're utterly disgracing the Fang family."
This remark stunned the three present—The Fang family's face!
The old man and lady looked up to scrutinize Jiang Xiaoxiao, only to hear their son introduce the young lady as surname Jiang, why was it suddenly changed to Fang?
What connection did Jiang Xiaoxiao have with the Fang family?
Mr. Wang was equally baffled; Jiang Xiaoxiao's surname was Jiang.
He had specifically checked Jiang Xiaoxiao's records, clearly showing her surname was Jiang, with a father named Jiang Honest and a mother named Fan Xiuying.
Absolutely no relation to the Fang family.
"Jiang Xiaoxiao, do you know this woman here?"
Mr. Wang instinctively felt he should protect Jiang Xiaoxiao.
"Mr. Wang, my surname is Jiang; my father is called Jiang Honest, and my mother is Fan Xiuying. I have absolutely no relation with the Fang family."
Jiang Xiaoxiao felt a mix of laughter and tears.
Was Ye Hua pushed to her breaking point by her actions or overwhelmed by recent developments, revealing such family disgrace in another's home?
Did Ye Hua, a person valuing face, become shameless?
Relieved, Mr. Wang's anger soon surfaced, what was this woman doing, being so rude though coming to seek his father's favor?
Offending his guest, what was she up to?
"Comrade, pay attention when speaking, don't casually slander another's guest. The person in front of us, surname Jiang, I know. Her records clearly state Jiang Xiaoxiao! Even if you are slandering, get it right before doing so."
Mr. Wang firmly defended the girl.
Jiang Xiaoxiao suddenly felt sorry for Mr. Wang.
Ye Hua was utterly incoherent earlier, seeing Jiang Xiaoxiao charm Mr. Wang's son.
This Jiang Xiaoxiao seemed to be everywhere, capable of anything.
Ye Hua's main fear was Jiang Xiaoxiao causing trouble here, instinctively saying such a slanderous remark to malign Jiang Xiaoxiao.
After uttering it, she realized her mistake, this wasn't the place to casually say such things.
If Jiang Xiaoxiao's origins were really revealed, it would embarrass not them but the Fang family, without solid evidence proving Jiang Xiaoxiao being their biological daughter.
Merely relying on their words and the nurse's talks at the hospital wouldn't be convincing.
Moreover, Jiang Xiaoxiao completely refused to acknowledge them, giving no face to Ye Hua as a mother. To claim Jiang Xiaoxiao as her daughter was humiliating herself.
Seeing Mr. Wang ardently defending Jiang Xiaoxiao now, Ye Hua was filled with regret.
She wished she had left earlier, waited outside to confront Jiang Xiaoxiao to clarify, which would have been better than speaking here.
If she exposed all, the old man would wonder, the Fang family be seen as chaotic.
And if others sympathized with Jiang Xiaoxiao.
Helped place Jiang Xiaoxiao in a county job, she'd be helping someone else.
Ye Hua regretted a hundred times.
"I'm truly sorry, I've mistaken you. Uncle Wang, I'll leave now. But please consider carefully about this ancestral secret recipe matter; it's no minor thing, potentially harmful if you drink it."
Ye Hua left abruptly after delivering her warning.
She swiftly exited.
Jiang Xiaoxiao spread her hands and shrugged.
Typical of Ye Hua.
