Chapter 442: Chapter 0442: Wealth in The Deep Mountains 2_1

When Feng Qingxue appeared, the mother and daughter stopped speaking and turned to look at her. A flash of astonishment involuntarily passed through their eyes; the elder one showing intrigue after her initial surprise, while the younger one revealing a hint of jealousy.

The mother and daughter looked similar with the same elegant eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and a melon-shaped face.

The mother looked a bit thinner and more aged, while the daughter a touch chubby in her infantility.

Upon closer inspection, they actually resembled Wang Jiao a bit, but Wang Jiao was more pretty and delicate.

Of course, this was referring to Wang Jiao before her pregnant days. Now, with her round face, double chin and barrel waist, lying in bed waiting for her mother-in-law to take care of her confinement, her beauty was far behind that of the mother and daughter in front of her.

"Who might you be?" Feng Qingxue shifted her gaze, using the dim light from outside the door curtain, she saw clearly the people in the room.

In addition to Lu Tianjun, Wang Zhengguo, Wang Zhenghai, Wang Zhengtao, the three uncles, and Miao Fengqin, Wang Fengqiao, the two sister-in-laws, sat with gloomy faces with only Wang Zhengguo cradling Xibao on his lap.

"You must be Qingxue, right? Oh my, look how pretty you’ve grown!" The older woman got up, walked over to Feng Qingxue, and said with a beaming smile, "I’m your auntie, your mom and I were very close! She listened to everything I said, and I treated her the best. I never expected to return and hear the terrible news. It’s unthinkable that my younger sister went before me."

As she spoke, her face turned from a smile to a somber expression, she even lifted her hand to wipe the corner of her eyes, seemingly very saddened.

But Feng Qingxue saw clearly that there were no tears in her eyes, much less streaming down her cheeks. She subtly sidestepped the hand the woman had stretched out to her with feigned intimacy and walked straight to Wang Zhengguo, picked up her chubby son reaching out for her and asked, "Uncle, is she really my aunt? I’ve never met her so I wouldn’t know."

If she didn’t recognize her, then naturally she would not trust her.

Any smart person would understand her underlying meaning.

Before Wang Zhengguo could speak, Wang Fengmei said unhappily, "If I’m not your aunt, then who is?"

Wang Zhengguo gave her a cold glance, "Mouths are but two flaps of skin, and with a gentle touch, any words can come out. Who would believe the words of a stranger?" He was utterly unkind.

"Brother!" Wang Fengmei’s face turned sour.

Her daughter also pouted, "Uncle, how can you talk about my mom like that? Haven’t you heard that guests should be treated respectfully?"

Feng Qingxue admired Wang Zhengguo very much and didn’t appreciate it when someone disrespected him. She responded curtly, "I just know that some people drop in uninvited and chatter away, waking me up. It’s utterly rude!"

Wang Fengmei’s daughter glared at her angrily, "Do you know who I am? How dare you speak to me this way!"

"Uncle, do you think this lady has some issues? She doesn’t even know who she is and is asking me. I’ve never met her before, how would I know who she is! My boy, Xibao, is so little, he can’t talk yet, but when I call his name, he knows I’m calling him! Isn’t that right, Xibao?" Xibao responded by nestling his face against hers, babbling happily.

Miao Fengqin and Wang Fengqiao, the two sister-in-laws, held back their smiles, feeling immensely satisfied.

For Feng Qingxue, who usually appeared gentle and approachable, she surprisingly had a sharp tongue that left Wang Fengmei and her daughter, Zhao Mingfang, speechless.
