Chapter 891: Proud Mother and Son
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Huang Fei strode into her home, pulling her son along with her head held high, signaling the maid to close the door behind them. She carried herself as if she were a noble from another world.
A Cui, watching this display, couldn’t help but feel disdain for this outsider’s self-important attitude, but she didn’t dare show it. Instead, she thought of finding an opportunity to sneak away something valuable from the house to sell for some cash; at least it would make enduring this humiliation worthwhile.
Meanwhile, at the Su family’s residence, guests were already enjoying the feast in the courtyard. Laughter filled the air as everyone celebrated together.
Each table was adorned with a platter of snacks personally prepared by Gu Zi, which received rave reviews. The marinated meat brought by her relatives was also a hit, with everyone saying that since Gu Zi had come into their lives, dining at the Su household felt like a treat.
Shi Tou, experiencing such a beautiful house for the first time, was too excited to eat. Su Li kept piling his plate high with dishes, but Shi Tou just stared wide-eyed at everything he had never seen before.
Clutching his grandmother’s hand, Shi Tou whispered, “Grandma, Su Li’s new home is so big and so beautiful! No wonder they moved here!”
Aunt Zhang looked at her grandson, who was so unworldly, with a mix of amusement and exasperation. After all, she had never seen a house like this either, so it was no surprise that Shi Tou was dumbfounded.
Only after the feast did Shi Tou regain some energy, following Su Li and Gao Ming outside to play. But it wasn’t long before he grew shy again.
The change in Shi Tou’s demeanor was triggered when Huang Fei and her son settled in the yard for afternoon tea. They were surrounded by the maids and workers, who were busy flattering Huang Fei’s family while disparaging everyone else. They failed to notice that Gu Zi had just returned from the market with drinks, walking past Huang Fei’s yard.
A Cui raised her voice, saying, “These kids can’t even compare to Young Master Xu Sheng. I don’t know how their parents are raising them—such a lack of upbringing! Running around here when they don’t even live here! It’s so embarrassing. But I guess the Su family doesn’t care who they associate with; they’ve lowered the status of the whole neighborhood.”
