"It’s nothing, Mrs. Han. After all, with Grandma and Aunt Shen here, if they didn’t stop you, you surely wouldn’t dare to disturb. I know you didn’t do it on purpose!"
The implication of these words was clear. As soon as Tian Tian finished speaking, Old Madam Mu frowned and stared at her, speaking up.
"Tian Tian, what do you an? Are you implying I didn’t let Mrs. Han clean, on purpose so you would fall?"
Tian Tian blinked and looked at Old Madam Mu with a smile, seemingly unaware of the coldness in her eyes, smiling brightly.
"How could that be? Grandma is getting old, her eyesight’s not good. She probably didn’t see it."
Old Madam Mu’s expression changed slightly and she stared at Tian Tian, speaking again.
"Then are you saying your Aunt Shen deliberately wanted you to fall?"
After Old Madam Mu finished speaking, her eyes wandered over to Shen Xin beside them.
Shen Xin said nothing, glancing at Tian Tian with a calm expression.
Tian Tian continued smiling, her voice soft.
"Grandma, I’m not Aunt Shen. How would I know if she did it on purpose?"
"This question, you should ask Aunt Shen!"
Before Old Madam Mu could speak, Tian Tian added again.
"I have sothing to take care of outside. Grandma’s eyesight doesn’t work well, Aunt Shen, please keep an eye out. Who knows, besides banana peels, there might also be waterlon rinds and grape seeds on the floor!"
"Tian Tian!"
Old Madam Mu’s face instantly turned very unpleasant, but Tian Tian completely ignored her and went straight out the door.
"That brat!"
Watching the enraged Old Madam Mu, Shen Xin pursed her lips and spoke softly.
"Mom, don’t get upset for her, it’s not worth it for your health."
"Dad’s 80th birthday is coming up, and things at the celebration still need you to take charge."
As Shen Xin spoke, Old Madam Mu’s gloomy face suddenly changed a bit.
Glaring hard at Tian Tian’s departing figure at the door, Old Madam Mu snorted lightly.
"You’re right, but I just can’t stand the sight of her!"
"Shen Xin, take a good look at her. Doesn’t she look especially like that low-life, Zhang Xiaozhi?"
Shen Xin’s expression froze slightly, then she smiled faintly.
"Mom, Zhang Xiaozhi has been gone for so many years. I can hardly rember what she looked like, so whether Tian Tian resembles her or not, it’s really hard to say."
Old Madam Mu paused briefly, her eyes flickering, then gently patted Shen Xin’s hand, speaking to her with great affection.
"With you like this, I’m relieved!"
"It’s best if you forget that low-life. If it hadn’t been for her back then, you and Mu Yi wouldn’t have had so many ssy conflicts!"
Shen Xin smiled slightly and responded gently.
"Mom, the past is past. Living well in the present is what’s best."
Old Madam Mu nodded with a smile, but the thought of Tian Tian brought a hint of coldness back to her eyes.
"Indeed, what’s past is past. But that drag-along baggage was still found and brought back. How can I be content!"
Shen Xin sighed and was about to say sothing when Old Madam Mu took over the conversation.
"This ti, I’ll make sure she loses face completely, with no chance to show herself again!"
Shen Xin slightly frowned and glanced at the direction of the study, ready to speak.
Old Madam Mu watched her, not giving her the opportunity to speak.
"Don’t worry, Mom knows what to do. Besides, there never was a Tian Tian in the Mu Family, and now suddenly there’s one, a child raised in the countryside, what proper manners could she have!"
The implication was that when sothing goes wrong, just bla it on the environnt Tian Tian grew up in from a young age.
