"Oh, Yuanyuan! Auntie arrived just in time, I was afraid I wouldn’t find you with so many people around!"

Lin Yuan’s mouth twitched, and she secretly rolled her eyes, but when she turned around, she was all smiles: "Is that not Laosan’s wife from the Lin family? What brings you to my house today?"

It seemed that she wanted to remind Li Feng’e, so Lin Yuan intentionally emphasized the words "my house" very heavily.

Li Feng’e’s face changed as she cursed inwardly, but her expression remained cheerful: "How can this auntie not come when you’re warming the pot in your new house? Especially on such a day as this?"

As she spoke, she turned her head to glance at their newly built house with red bricks and large tiles, envy flashing briefly in her eyes, feeling even worse inside.

Lin Yuan could see the jealousy at the bottom of Li Feng’e’s eyes crystal clear and chuckled, "Auntie? I seem to recall that we don’t have any relationship anymore. Whether you come to the warming or not, it doesn’t really matter."

Li Feng’e’s face stiffened, not expecting this bratty girl to speak so directly, exposing their severed ties so bluntly.

Her eyes darted around and seeing that quite a few people had come out to listen to their conversation, she squeezed out a radiant smile, as the saying goes, one does not slap a smiling face, and she didn’t believe that Lin Yuan would have the gall to chase her away in front of so many people.

Rubbing her hands together, Li Feng’e then remembered that she had brought a gift.

She brought the basket she was carrying on her arm forward to reveal two large cabbages inside and laughed, "Yuanyuan, shouldn’t you have let your auntie know about such a big event as warming the pot?

I didn’t have anything fancy to bring, so I brought you a few cabbages.

Don’t look down on them for being too little. "

As she spoke, she was about to head with the basket toward the kitchen: "What delicious food are we having for lunch today? It smells so good. Do you need auntie’s help?"

Before Li Feng’e could approach the kitchen, Lin Yuan had already stepped to the side to block her path. Help? You make it sound so nice, are you here to help work, or to help eat?

Sneering, Lin Yuan eyed the two wilted, moistureless cabbages in Li Feng’e’s basket and handed them back to her: "Auntie, you said you came for the pot warming, but I don’t recall inviting you.

Today, I invited friends we get along with in the village.

Ordinary folks, we’ll leave out for now, and we’ll invite the whole village over some other time for a gathering. "

The meaning behind her words was crystal clear; we only invite those we are close with, and those who weren’t invited are not close. Please go back where you came from, no farewell needed!

Li Feng’e certainly understood, but she still shamelessly chuckled, "What does it matter if we’re close or not, I’m your blood-related aunt.

Your grandparents are unwell and can’t come, your Aunt is taking care of your cousin at home and also can’t make it.

As your aunt, how could I not show up when I heard about it? "

"Heh, I’ve been married into the Lin family hill for over a decade now, and this is the first time I’ve heard Laosan’s wife utter a word of human speech!"

"Don’t mention your decade, I’ve been nearly thirty years and haven’t heard it either, haha."

The unrestrained laughter of the two women almost shattered the well-crafted facade of Li Feng’e.

Li Feng’e turned her head to glare at them, mentally noting who they were, determined to never associate with them again in the future.

Lin Yuan, however, was smiling when she asked, "Since auntie claims to be here for the pot warming, I have to ask, you keep mentioning my grandparents and my Aunt, so you are here as a relative from my mother’s side, right?

Then please tell me, as a relative from my mother’s in-law’s side, what should you bring to a pot warming? Just two cabbages?"

The crowd around them all burst into laughter.

Lady Liu, who despised this former sister-in-law, wanted to come out and chase her away.

But considering she was heavily pregnant and shouldn’t get agitated, the women inside the house managed to keep her in.

Hearing Lin Yuan make these sarcastic remarks, her heart felt very delighted.
