Old Mrs. Meng, Wei Hui, was waiting in the living room.

Meng Tang and Ning Jia brought the three children to greet Wei Hui. Wei Hui immediately reached out her hand to Meng Tang.

Meng Tang went forward and sat beside his mother.

Wei Hui sighed, “Why did you lose weight again? You looked so haggard?”

Without waiting for Meng Tang to speak, Wei Hui looked at Ning Jia and sighed, “You never put your mind on your man. Tell me, is there anyone more important than your man in this world? I’ve taught you this principle for decades, why can’t you learn it? You have to care about his health! Only when he is well will your whole family be well!”

Wei Hui spoke in a soft voice but her words were hurtful. Ning Jia’s hands were clenched into fists, but her face was calm and respectful. She said, “Mother, you’re right. I’ll work hard.”

Wei Hui pursed her lips and said, “I had heard that many times.”

“Mother, Ning Jia took good care of me.” Meng Tang held Ning Jia’s hand in his palm.

Ning Jia’s expression relaxed.

Meng Jiao sighed. She thought, ‘I didn’t expect my parents to still not understand the way mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along at this age. The more they loved each other in front of Grandma, the less she liked my mother.’

As expected, Wei Hui’s expression turned ugly. She glared at Meng Tang and said, “You’ve always been like this since you were young. You’re always protecting others and don’t cherish yourself.”

“Mother, look! We’ve brought Meng Jiao back!” Meng Tang pulled Meng Jiao over. He added, “She’s your granddaughter! Meng Jiao, hurry up and greet your Grandma!”

Meng Jiao sighed in her heart and greeted respectfully, “Hello, Grandma!”

Wei Hui narrowed her eyes and looked at Meng Jiao.

Meng Tang gently pushed Meng Jiao to stand closer.

Meng Jiao met Wei Hui’s gaze and let her size her up. Wei Hui looked at Ning Jia and said lightly, “Yes, this one really looks like you!”

Ning Jia’s heart sank.

Meng Jiao handed over the small box in her hand with a sincere smile on her face. She said, “Grandma, this is my gift to you. I grew up in the countryside and don’t know anything. I asked Father for the money. In the countryside, promising children would buy gold bracelets for their grandmothers. This was because wearing a gold bracelet would allow the elderly to live a long life!”

Wei Hui was a little surprised by Meng Jiao’s cleverness. However, she did not feel like scolding such an obedient child. After hearing such words, she did not dare to face Meng Jiao coldly anymore.

Wei Hui instructed the maid beside her to take the box. When Wei Hui saw the logo on it, a smile appeared on her face. She opened it and saw that it was indeed not an ordinary item. She closed the box with a smile and glanced at Ning Jia. She asked Meng Jiao, “Did your mother teach you that?”

As Wei Hui spoke, she reached out and pulled Meng Jiao over. Wei Hui continued, “It’s not easy for your mother to say something that will make me happy. You look like a smart girl. Why don’t you stay with me in the future? It’s enough for your mother to have a daughter by her side. She still has to take care of your father.”

Ning Jia stood up from her chair. Wei Hui did not even look at her.

Meng Tang also stood up.

“Grandma is so good to Mother!” Meng Jiao tilted her head and said innocently.

Everyone was stunned.

These words were as ironic as they could get! Instantly, Wei Hui’s expression turned cold again.

Meng Jiao did not seem to notice anything and continued, “You asked me to stay here because you are afraid that Mother would be too tired taking care of me. Right, Grandma? You’re getting old. It’s time for Mother to take care of you. I can’t let you tire yourself out. Mother and Father will only be happy if you are in good health. Put on the bracelet I gave you. You will definitely live to be a hundred years old!”

Wei Hui was speechless.

Meng Tang felt relieved. He reached out to pull Meng Jiao over and pushed her to Ning Jia’s side. He said, “Mother, Meng Jiao is right. It’s already not easy for you to help us raise Meng Lin and Meng Wei all these years. We can’t add to your burden anymore. Meng Jiao grew up in the countryside and has no rules. You have to let Ning Jia teach her well. After she has taught her the rules, she can come and accompany you often.”

Wei Hui never rejected her son’s request. She only glanced at Ning Jia and said lightly, “Let Ning Jia educate the rules? Look at what she taught Meng Yao! Hmph! Fortunately, she’s not from our Meng family!”

Meng Yao’s face turned pale.

Ning Jia reached out and shielded Meng Yao behind her. She would protect her daughter.

Wei Hui did not give Ning Jia a chance to flare up and continued, “Forget it, I’ll listen to you, Tang. I know you love your wife. I don’t want to be an evil Grandma, but this girl looks pretty good. You have to educate her well, don’t be like…”

Wei Hui glanced at Ning Jia and did not continue, but her meaning was quite obvious.
