Transmigrated into a Parvenu’s Ex-wife in the ‘90s-Chapter 402
Chapter 402 - "How is Third Sister related to Li Miaomiao?" (2)
“What’s the matter?” Feng Zeyu had been paying attention to Shu Yan.
“Nothing. Something just occurred to me was all.” Shu Yan smiled and had Feng Zeyu hurried up and start eating. Most of the other guests at their tables were Shu Yan’s female cousins from both her paternal and maternal sides. Nevertheless, women were even better than men in fighting over food.
“What is this?” One of Shu Yan’s cousins picked up a crab and for the life of her could not figure out how to eat it.
City Xi is in the inner part of the continent and it was rare for farming villages in the middle of the continent to have seafood at this day and age. At most they may have seaweeds. It was only normal that her cousin had no idea how to eat it.
Shu Yan picked one up and told her how to eat it in a low voice. The others looked over at Shu Yan subtly.
“Oh, I see. That’s how you eat it. Thank you, cousin.” The cousin was the child from Shu Yan’s aunty’s family. Their family only had two children and the younger one that was more doted on.
One of Shu Yan’s paternal cousin and her husband picked up the crab and started eating it, as did two other cousins next to them.
“Oh, little sister, you could have asked me if you didn’t know how. It’s so easy,“ said an older cousin with a smile after she ate half a crab.
“You know how?” The younger cousin gave her a look and, not caring about how she’d feel, said, “You learned it from this big sister too. You glanced over our way the entire time when she was teaching me. I saw it all. Besides, you did it wrong. You can eat the yellow part but not the white stringy stuff.”
The aunty was in business and did quite well. The older cousin worked for her and dared not offend the younger cousin, she diverted her anger toward Shu Yan.
“What are you looking at? What’s the big deal of knowing how to eat crab? And which family are you from? I have never seen you before. Did you just sneak in here to eat our food?”
“Big cousin, you can’t just spew accusatory words. It doesn’t matter who I am, I am still Third Brother’s gusts. If you are going to ruin Third Brother’s wedding, what do you think Third Brother would do?”
The older cousin shut up right away.
Shu Jianyang could be very nice to his family but he could also not care that someone was family when he was angry.
The rest of dinner went by without further unpleasantness. Shu Jianyang even came specifically to toast Feng Zeyu in the middle and chatted with Shu Yan a little before he took off.
The other women exchanged looks with each other. They had never heard of Shu Jianyang paying special attention to any of his female cousins.
One of them who was closer with Shu Jianyang went to ask Shu Yan about her identity. She was stunned when she found out that she was Shu Yan from Second Uncle’s family.
“You really are cousin Shu Yan?” The younger cousin found it hard to believe.
“Yes. What’s the matter? You can’t tell?”
“You’ve changed too much. Never mind us, perhaps your mom and dad wouldn’t even recognize you either.” Her cousin felt that her Second Uncle and the others for sure would not recognize Shu Yan.
“You really are Shu Yan?” Second Cousin looked at Shu Yan’s clear face and, recalling her own freckles, asked, “How did you get rid of them?”
“I had laser treatment……” Shu Yan briefly talked about the effects, the possible side effects and the cost. Second Cousin was okay with both the effects and the side effects but backed off immediately when she found out how much it cost.
“You seem rich now?” The older cousin looked at Shu Yan, her eyes beaming. “Shu Yan, your brother-in-law is planning on starting his own business shortly. We are short 2…… 50,000 yuan. We are family. Can you loan me that amount first? We will pay you back when we start making money.”
The others all looked over at Shu Yan and looked like they wanted to give it a try as well.
