Chapter 821 - 823: Took a Liking to Each Other
Tang Rong’s mother initially came over angrily to reprimand her, but it turned out to be a productive visit. Firstly, Tang Rong and her mother finally had a deep heart-to-heart conversation after she had reached adulthood. Secondly, they got to know Xiao Yifei by accident, a beloved idol among middle-aged people.
The main conflict between Tang Rong and her mother really stemmed from a lack of communication. Tang Rong’s mother tends to be very domineering, especially at home, never allowing Tang Rong to even slightly contradict her. Initially, Tang Rong would argue a bit when she thought her mom was wrong, but over time, she realized reasoning with her mom was futile.
At home, her mother held absolute authority.
After dinner, Tang Rong’s mother pulled Xiao Yifei to sit on the sofa with her. "Xiao, accompany Auntie for a chat." In her eyes, she already saw Xiao Yifei as her prospective son-in-law, her fondness for him apparent.
"Mom, didn’t you say you had something to discuss with me?" Tang Rong intervened, knowing her mother could talk for hours without stopping.
"Oh, it’s nothing, nothing. I’m free now anyway, having a chat with Auntie is good." Xiao Yifei understood Tang Rong’s implication, but with nothing pressing, he felt this was a great opportunity to impress his potential future mother-in-law.
Seeing this, Tang Rong said nothing more, turning instead to the kitchen to wash dishes, and Shi Miaomiao returned to her room. The living room was left with just Tang Rong’s mother and Xiao Yifei.
Both had clear intentions, so Tang Rong’s mother focused her conversation on Tang Rong: "My Rongrong was adorable as a child, but she’s not as pretty now as she was then. By the way, you haven’t seen her childhood photos, have you?" With that, she pulled out her phone to find pictures of young Tang Rong.
