Chapter 45: Mother-in-law

"What's wrong?" Lin Wei Xi smiled, and looked at Granny Zhao coldly, "Is the menu a golden rule? The law of Dali Temple can be modify, but the banquet menu of Yan Wang Mansion cannot be changed?"

"But, after all, this was set by Wangfei Shen..."

Lin Wei Xi's eyes were cold and her voice was like ice hitting jade: "Am I not the Wangfei now?"

Granny Zhao was completely speechless. She looked at Gao Ran and asked for help: "Shizi Consort, what this lowly old slave said is count for nothing, please persuade Wangfei."

The estate granny followed Granny Zhao's line of sight, only to realize that Shizi Consort was also there. She was in a cold sweat, feeling ashamed, and hurriedly knelt down to salute: "This slave pay respect to Shizi Consort, greeting Shizi Consort."

The estate granny kowtowed while sweating. Actually, she couldn't be blamed. Lin Wei Xi who sat in the middle, had a glamorous appearance. Even if the whole house was so rich and luxurious still not as dazzling as her. The estate granny was surprised by such a bright fairy character, she didn't notice the person next to her. In fact, if looked closely, obviously could recognize Gao Ran. Gao Ran was gorgeously dressed, with golden hairpins and jade, and entirely different from a maid. But who made Lin Wei Xi's appearance too magnificent, estate granny was surprised by the new Wangfei, she secretly glanced at Lin Wei Xi and subconsciously thought the people around were her servants. As a result, with such a negligence she actually mistook the Shizi Consort.

If this estate granny kept her mouth shut, Gao Ran could still regarded it as this granny could not find any gap to greet her because Lin Wei Xi was in the way. However, this woman first showed a surprised look like she saw a ghost, and then knelt down in a hurry, Gao Ran was very embarrassed by her doing this. Under the embarrassment, Gao Ran became more and more angry. This woman was so bold that she just regarded her as Lin Wei Xi's maid?

But in front of so many people, it was not good for Gao Ran to flared up, so she could only smile forcefully and ordered the people up: "It's okay, you are too nervous, to neglect the etiquette can also happen."

The estate granny sweating coldly, she got up and smiled, "It's this old slave who was rude, Shizi Consort do not blame."

Granny Zhao also felt that this hillbilly was an embarrassment, she throw an annoyed glare at the estate granny, and changed the subject: "Shizi Consort, Wangfei is angry, you please persuade Wangfei."

Gao Ran rolled her eyes slightly, she thought to herself, could it be Lin Wei Xi didn't know that Yan Wang liked freshwater fish? If like so, then Gao Ran should even more let Lin Wei Xi make this mistake. She turned her mind and put on a smile on her face: "Mother, I know you are angry, but the New Year's banquet menu is something left behind by mother-in-law. This cannot be changed. Besides, it has been passed down for so many years. It is not good for you to change it rashly."

Gao Ran knew that Lin Wei Xi minded Wangfei Shen, the more she like this, the more Gao Ran wanted to mention Shen shi in front of everyone, so that everyone would know who her real mother-in-law and proper Wangfei was. Gao Ran wanted to provoke Lin Wei Xi to make mistakes on the menu, and it would be better to make Lin Wei Xi so angry that she insisted on touching Shen shi's legacy. If this happened, multiple crimes done one after another and when it passed on to Yan Wang and Shizi, Lin Wei Xi would be in big trouble.

Shizi Consort mentioned "mother-in-law" in front of Wangfei, the atmosphere in the room was obviously stagnated. The maids who served all bowed their heads, and Granny Zhao, who had served Wangfei Shen, was even more prideful. Lin shi was only a novel thing now, that's why Wangye doted on for a day or two, that's all. In fact how could it be compared with Wangfei Shen? It would be too ignorant of if she dared touch the things left behind by Wangfei Shen.
