Starting as a stand-in, the real daughter went crazy in the rich family

When Old Lady Liu passed away, Mr. and Mrs. Yao Zhan set up the mourning hall overnight and sent letters to several families in Haicheng.

The old lady has kept a low profile in Haicheng over the years and rarely comes into contact with outsiders.

If everyone hadn't seen her at Mr. Yao's birthday party, most people wouldn't know that she and Mr. Yao had that kind of relationship.

With the mentality of watching the show, many people came to Yao's house early in the morning.

The old lady's portrait still showed her in her middle age, and she looked extremely beautiful and radiant.

Everyone secretly sighed that when Mr. Yao was young, he was a romantic and affectionate man, but after all, he was the son of a wealthy family.

The woman who caught his eye was obviously not of ordinary appearance and temperament.

Yao Zhan, his wife Jin Fanghua and their son Yao Mofan stood on both sides of the mourning hall and bowed to the guests.

The couple felt very complicated when they saw so many people coming.

The reason why the Yao family was able to be ranked among the wealthy families in Haicheng was largely due to their marriage with the Shen family.

With the benefit of his sister Yao Lixuan marrying Shen Cangming, Yao Zhan can also rank among the wealthy circles.

But most of the time, the real rich kids ignored him.

Yao and Zhan are rarely invited to various top banquets, so the network of people he can make is very limited.

But who could have thought that after his mother passed away, so many important people whom he never met normally would come.

Presidents and CEOs in the business world, heads of families and elders came in one after another and paid their respects in front of the old lady's mourning hall.

This made Yao Zhan feel unreal.

Jin Fanghua was secretly delighted, with a hint of excitement on her face. She nudged Yao Zhan from time to time, asking him to come forward and greet the distinguished guests.

It is best to exchange a few pleasantries and leave a good impression on the other person.

Yao Mofan stood beside him, his eyes dark and his mood a little down.

In the entire Yao family, only his grandmother treated him the best, even more than his parents cared for him.

But the person who loved him the most has left, and before he died, he did not forget to find someone to pave the way for him.

He looked at the portrait in the mourning hall and even felt a little resentful towards Mr. Yao.

It was he who left the old lady alone in Haicheng for more than 30 years, leaving her to raise her children and grandchildren.

He would neither acknowledge her nor let her go.

The old lady was powerless to fight back and could only be depressed and angry. In the end, she did not live to be seventy years old.

Outside the mourning hall, Mr. Yao got out of the car and walked in accompanied by the head of the Yao family.

The guests automatically made way for them. Yao Zhan hurried forward and looked at his father excitedly. His lips trembled slightly, but he dared not make a sound.

Old Master Yao walked to the front of the mourning hall, looked at the old lady's portrait, was silent for a while, and then lit a stick of incense with his own hands.

He did like her back then, and now that he's old, there's no need to be shy about anything.

After burning incense, Mr. Yao’s brows relaxed, as if a knot in his heart had been untied, and he looked very relaxed.

He slowly turned his head and looked at his eldest grandson, "Mo Fan, come here."

Yao Mofan's expression stiffened a little. He had visited the old man several times, but was turned away every time.

Now the old man suddenly called him, making him feel inexplicably nervous.

Yao Mofan was nervous for a moment, but he still walked up to the old man obediently, "Grandpa."

Mr. Yao looked at him for a few seconds, nodded slightly, but didn't say anything.

Yao Mufan couldn't guess what the old man was thinking and didn't know what to say, so he just stood there.

When Mr. and Mrs. Yao Zhan came over, Jin Fanghua held a tea tray with a cup of tea on it in both hands.

Yao Zhan carefully looked at Mr. Yao's face and said, "Dad, this is your daughter-in-law. I'll give you a cup of tea."

Old Master Yao looked at Jin Fanghua. This was the first time he had formally met his daughter-in-law.

He actually didn't want to drink tea, but seeing that everyone's eyes were on them, he didn't want to offend Yao Zhan.

He took the cup and took a sip. "If you have the chance, you and your wife should take Mo Fan back to visit our family in Dijing."

After saying that, the old man put down the teacup and left with the head of the Yao family.

Yao Zhan was ecstatic. Did the old man acknowledge that they were father and son?

This is such a great joy!

He hurriedly chased after him, shouting, "Dad, I'll take you there."

Old Master Yao walked out of the Yao family's door and ran into Yao Lixuan, followed by Mrs. Shen and Liu Beiyun.

There is also a group of people from the Shen family and the Tang family.

"Dad, you're here." Yao Lixuan stood aside respectfully.

Old Master Yao hummed and nodded at her, "Help your eldest brother to take care of it. There are some rules that he doesn't quite understand."

"I understand, Dad." Yao Lixuan quickly agreed, her eyes shining.

It seems that the old man is not so cruel and has started to care about them.

Everyone came forward to say hello, then stood at the door and watched Mr. Yao leave in the car.

Old Mrs. Liu's body was only kept for half a day and was sent to the cemetery for burial in the afternoon.

Yao Lixuan helped her elder brother and sister-in-law to entertain the guests, and was so tired that her waist and legs ached at the end of the day.

Mrs. Shen and Liu Beiyun had been busy with her and were exhausted.

The old lady is their aunt, but they didn’t know about this relationship before.

When they found out, the old lady had already left in a hurry, so they had to give her a good send-off.

After finishing their work, Yao Lixuan and the other two did not go to the banquet prepared by Yao Zhan. Instead, they asked the driver to take them to a restaurant with a good environment and found a quiet private room.

The three of them drank a pot of hot floral tea before they slowly recovered. They asked the waiter to serve the dishes and chatted while they ate.

Mrs. Shen was used to big occasions. She was the most active among the three. Her lively conversation promoted relationships and created a very harmonious atmosphere.

When Old Mrs. Liu left, there was one less member of her family, but the three of them became much closer because of this relationship.

In the past, Yao Lixuan looked down on Liu Beiyun, thinking that she came from an ordinary family and was not worthy of marrying into a wealthy family.

But now we know that Liu Beiyun is actually Mrs. Shen’s biological sister and the daughter of the Seventh Master of the Yun family.

She has two older brothers, both of whom are elders of the Yun family.

She herself is the daughter of a wealthy family, and her status is even higher than Yao Lixuan.

The Shen family of Haicheng is just a side branch and is not good enough in front of the Yun family.

Yao Lixuan's attitude changed drastically, and she became much more enthusiastic towards this sister-in-law and cousin.

The three women got together and chatted about trivial matters in their daily lives, and then they talked about their children.

Yao Lixuan was concerned about Shen Luoting's health, and felt that Shen Qingrong's marriage to Tang Yuewei was not so satisfactory, so she sighed every time she spoke.

She has been frowning these days, and has been unable to eat or sleep well.

I am really troubled by my children's troubles.

Mrs. Shen felt the same way and sighed, "As a mother, I can't help but worry. When my son was injured, I felt the same as you. I wished I could suffer for him."

"The child's future cannot be relied on by my husband. I can only find a way to do things for him."

Mrs. Shen glanced at the two of them and picked up her teacup. "It's rare for us sisters to meet again. We should work together to do something for the child while we have the resources."

Liu Beiyun nodded, "I've also been thinking about how I can help Niuniu."

Yao Lixuan felt more urgent. Shen Jue and Du Ying were still young, so there was still time to pave the way for them.

But her children have already married and have fewer and fewer opportunities to show up in the family.

Especially Shen Luoting, I wonder if he can get lucky and win the position of the young master of the Shen family.

Whenever Yao Lixuan thought about her son's health and that confused daughter-in-law, she felt a headache.

So she immediately accepted Mrs. Shen's proposal. Once the Shen, Yun and Shen families joined forces, they would be able to help the child a lot.

After the meal, the three of them reached a preliminary agreement.

In the future, they will have to appear frequently on important occasions, and they will also have to practice noble ladies’ diplomacy!
