Chapter 1214: Old Grandma Xie to the Rescue
It was so annoying!
Ying Yimei knew very well that the engagement banquet was held for Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang, yet she chose to wear a red dress.
What was she trying to do?
Was she trying to insinuate that she should be the one who should be getting engaged?
Some people in this world don’t recognize their self-worth. They’ve done everything to get to the top, but they never could. At the end of the day, they were just embarrassing themselves.
“Li Qingcang, what do you mean by that? Doesn’t your grandmother have the right to give someone a dress? I gave Yimei the dress because she looks nice in red. It’s a very festive color. I don’t want people to wear white during a happy occasion like this. It makes it look like a funeral. I’m not dead yet!”
Li Hang looked at his mother coldly. “Mom, you’re drunk.”
How could Grandma Li say such things in the presence of so many relatives and friends? She had behaved badly at the birthday banquet. She was not doing the same thing.
What was she trying to do?
Did she think that their family was too happy and needed some excitement to spice up their lives?
“I’m not drunk. Your son’s the one who’s trying to pick a fight first.”
Li Qingcang’s fist was clenched tightly. Ye Tianxin, who was sitting next to him, could hear the clattering of his knuckles.
Ye Tianxin put her hand gently on Li Qingcang’s hand. She looked at him and shook her head.
Li Qingcang’s eyes were full of affection. Why was his precious girl so kind?
“Grandma is getting old. Naturally, she has her preference for people or things.” Ye Tianxin tried to calm Li Qingcang down.
Grandma Li snorted. She was about to vent her frustrations at Ye Tianxin when Xie Xuning walked in with Old Grandma Xie. He helped Old Grandma Xie to the main table, taking the first seat between Grandma Li and Ye Tianxin’s Grandma.
Old Grandma Xie sat down and glanced around the table. Her eyes fell on Ying Yimei. “Who is that? Why have I never seen her before?”
“This is Yimei.”
“Whose relative is that? Is this from your maternal family?” Old Grandma Xie looked at Li Qingcang with curiosity.
Xie Xuning was afraid that Grandma Li would make things difficult during dinner. That was why he invited Old Grandma Xie. Grandma Li would not behave too badly in front of another elder.
After all, Grandma Li was the most important elder in the Li family. It would’ve been a bad idea to talk back to her.
However, Old Grandma Xie was the bigger senior.
“No, she isn’t.”
Grandma Li eyed Old Grandma Xie fearfully.
Old Grandma Xie looked hard at Ying Yimei and the dress she was wearing. She turned to Grandma Li. “I think you’re getting more senile. Don’t you know who should be sitting at the main table? The girl has nothing to do with the Li or Xie families, but she’s sitting at the main table. What’s more, look at her red dress. What is she trying to show off?”
Ying Yimei’s face was flushed red with embarrassment.
Everyone had turned to look at her when Old Grandma Xie said those words.
She wished she could bury her head in the ground at that moment.
“I don’t like what you’re saying. I’m already so old. Are you saying I can’t even bring someone I like to the dinner to keep me company?”
Old Grandma Xie continued to ask Grandma Li, “What? Why should I give you some respect in front of so many people? Today is my great granddaughter’s big day. I don’t want to argue with you. If you think your life is too boring, then go divorce Old Li. Maybe he can find someone who is able to tend to his every needs to spend the rest of his life with.”
Old Grandma Xie had lived to an old ripe age, so she had known Grandma Li for a long time.
She could not tolerate her nonsense.
