After receiving the certificate, she was pinched and doted on by the wealthy heir.

Compared to Yan Liangping, Tang Yongshu's place is much deserted.

He and Aunt Zhou were the only two people in the huge house.

Seeing the young couple coming, Tang Yongshu was as happy as a child. He prepared tea and grabbed a lot of dried fruits for Xia Taozhi, for fear that she wouldn't eat them.

Xia Taozhi couldn't laugh or cry.

The two of them wished Tang Yongshu New Year greetings and exchanged two thick red envelopes.

When leaving, Tang Yongshu insisted on going with him no matter what. He said: "You are going to pay New Year's greetings to that girl Xia Lian. After all, I am still her elder. Why can't I go? I want to go too."

Aunt Zhou could not persuade her no matter what.

Xia Taozhi had no choice but to secretly call Aunt Lian.

Aunt Lian smiled and said: "Since the old man wants to come, you can take him with you. It will be lively when there are many people."

After getting the other party's approval, she breathed a sigh of relief and took Tang Yongshu and Aunt Zhou to Xia Lian's villa.

Aunt Lian has been waiting at the door for a long time.

She looks good recently, and her body seems to have recovered a lot, and she can get out of the wheelchair.

Seeing her standing outside the door smiling softly, Xia Taozhi quickly jumped out of the car: "Aunt Lian!!"

"Slow down, slow down, it's not like you haven't seen me before, why are you so anxious." Xia Lian was so nervous, for fear that she would fall.

"Long time no see, I miss Aunt Lian." Xia Taozhi couldn't help but act coquettishly.

She actually already knew her life experience.

She is Xia Rui's daughter.

Xia Rui is Xia Lian's biological sister.

That means... Aunt Lian is her biological aunt.

Once the relationship was straightened out, she felt that Xia Lian felt more cordial, but now was not the time, and she did not want to tell him her life experience so soon.

So before coming, she had reminded Tang Yongshu many times.

The old man was so touched that his ears were numb. He nodded repeatedly and made many promises, which made Aunt Zhou look on happily.

"How come you got to know Mr. Tang?" Xia Lian was also quite touched when she saw her old friend.

"Mr. Tang and I met at an auction. Does Aunt Lian know about that wedding dress?"

"I know, it was popular all over the Internet before, how could I not know?"

Aunt Lian smiled and pinched her cheek, "I also know that this is produced by Phantom. It was made by you, a little devil."

"Oh, Aunt Lian, please be gentle!"

Xia Taozhi acted coquettishly and said with a smile, "It was Mr. Tang who took the photo of this wedding dress."

"So that's it..." Aunt Lian's expression changed, "What a fate, please come in."

Although Tang Yongshu was still a little unhappy with Xia Taozhi's sudden change of heart, seeing Xia Lian after a long absence and seeing his little granddaughter so happy, he had no choice but to suppress these dissatisfaction in his heart for the time being.

"Long time no see, Xiaolian." Tang Yongshu smiled.

"Yes, Teacher Tang, happy New Year to you." Xia Lian saluted respectfully.

A group of people walked into the villa, Jiang Xuan and Cheng Kele were also there.

As a member of the family, Cheng Kele was still helping to make scented tea and began to entertain guests.

Seeing that no one was around, she quickly took another piece of snack and stuffed it into Xia Taozhi's mouth.

The next second, Xia Taozhi's mouth felt fragrant, sweet and delicate, so delicious that her eyes shone.

"I knew you liked it, hehe, I left it especially for you." Cheng Kele said with a smile.

The few of them sat down and chatted about the past for a while, and the more they chatted, the better they understood each other.

Xia Taozhi and Han Xiao sat together obediently, drinking tea and eating snacks, acting as the most qualified listeners.

After a while, the housekeeper came to report.

"Madam, Miss Gui is here."

The temperature on Xia Lian's face cooled down visibly.

She waved her hand: "Invite her in."

Gui Yunrong was wearing an exquisite dark blue cheongsam and a mink fur coat. She looked graceful and luxurious. Although she was a bit older than her actual age, she was extremely gorgeous and eye-catching.

"Auntie, Happy New Year." She smiled slightly and was extremely polite, "I'm here to wish you a happy New Year."

Xia Lian's expression was indifferent and she ordered people to put away the gifts she brought.

"Don't be so polite, please take a seat."

Gui Yunrong: "How can you call this polite? I should. Aunt Lian is my elder. It is only natural that I come to pay New Year greetings... It's a pity that I didn't see you at the Xia family banquet on New Year's Eve. I was a little bit Pity."

"There's nothing to regret. I've had New Year's Eve dinner for so many years. It doesn't matter if I don't go there once."

"Aunt Lian, this is the ginseng I asked someone to get from the snowy mountains. You are not in good health. You can use it to make tea, stew, etc. It can also be a good tonic."

Gui Yunrong spoke very gently and considerately.

Xia Lian still looked cold and distant. She just smiled and expressed her gratitude, and then skipped the topic.

Gui Yunrong's mouth was awkward for a few seconds, and she soon started laughing again: "Aunt Lian, these elders are..."

It's okay if she doesn't mention it.

At this mention, Xia Lian's expression became strange: "This is Xia Rui's teacher, she can be regarded as my elder."

"What? My mother's teacher?" Gui Yunrong put down the tea cup and looked at Tang Yongshu in surprise and joy, "Excuse me, are you..."

"This is Tang Yongshu, Mr. Tang."

Xia Lian introduced.

Hearing this name, Gui Yunrong's eyes jumped slightly.

"Happy New Year, Mr. Tang. I didn't expect you to be here. I didn't bring any gifts. I'm really sorry. I don't know where Mr. Tang lives now. Can you give me an address? I will visit you someday to make up for today's rudeness. .”

"No need." Tang Yongshu understood clearly and refused directly, "I just came here with my foreign friend Taotao today to have a meal."

Gui Yunrong looked at Xia Taozhi: "Thank you, Mrs. Han. If it weren't for you, I don't know when I would be able to see my mother's teacher."

Xia Taozhi: "You're welcome."

Several people looked coldly at Gui Yunrong's active performance, with smiles hidden in each other's eyes.

Finally, Xia Lian announced that dinner was ready.

Everyone moved to the restaurant.

In order to entertain Xia Tao and the others, Xia Lian specially ordered the kitchen to prepare a large table of sumptuous meals, which made people want to eat just looking at them.

During the dinner, everyone was talking and laughing, except for one person who couldn't get a word in.

This person is Gui Yunrong.

After three rounds of drinking, she realized something was wrong and felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.

After finally getting through most of the time, she couldn't sit still anymore and took the initiative to stand up and leave.Xia Lian asked the housekeeper to send her outside.

Gui Yunrong sat in the car, her breath still stuck in her heart.

Lin'er drove the car: "What's wrong? Didn't the New Year greetings go well?"

"Hmph, I guess... Xia Lian probably knows my identity. It was a failure not to kill Xia Taozhi last time! She knows that lullaby, she must have something to do with Xia Rui!"

She said with a sullen face and bitterly.

"Forget it, if we failed last time, we won't be able to succeed again. Anyway, she can't find out the paternity test results at all now. We still have time." Lin'er consoled her.

"I hope so. It's thanks to Gui Wenqian that she proposed to split the branch into two. Otherwise, I wouldn't have enough energy to do this now."
