Became a salted fish pretend heiress and handed over the system-Chapter 530 - 519: Can’t Compare

After several people started eating, they were all blown away by the quality of the food and immediately began wolfing it down without any further chatter.

Seeing this, Xia Yue could only retreat a step and sit to the side, watching them eat.

When Yan Mo arrived and saw how they were digging in, he didn’t interrupt but rather sat beside Xia Yue.

They began to slow down only when they had almost finished eating.

"Greetings to all the elders." Yan Mo saw that they had finished eating and stood up to walk over and greet them.

After all, they were familiar faces at home. Knowing that they had arrived and not greeting them would be an oversight on his part as the younger generation, especially since one of them was his uncle’s father-in-law.

"The Yan family’s third child?" The elderly Mr. Han, seeing him, asked in surprise.

"Yes, it’s me." Yan Mo nodded.

The other elders were puzzled when they saw him, glancing back and forth between him and Xia Yue, they couldn’t figure out how the two could be acquainted.

Even though Xia Yue was a younger generation that they all adored, she was considered the laziest and least ambitious, whereas Yan Mo was the most accomplished and proudest member of the Yan family and one of the most promising figures among the younger generation in all of Kyoto’s distinguished families. The two were just on completely different wavelengths, they thought.

"What brings you here?" Mr. Han, being Yan Mo’s uncle’s father-in-law, and thus a senior in relation to Yan Mo, asked out of curiosity.

"Can’t say." Yan Mo shook his head.

"Oh." Mr. Han, understanding his special circumstances, did not press further.

"Grandpa, grandma, have you had enough to eat?" Xia Yue asked in a timely manner.

"Can’t eat anymore, I’ve eaten twice as much as I normally would." Mrs. Mu shook her head.

"Same here, I usually only eat a small bowl, but today I’ve had two, I’m stuffed."

"I’ll go make some hawthorn water for you to aid digestion." Xia Yue said, then ran off to do so.

"I’ll be going then, everyone enjoy yourselves." Yan Mo felt that he couldn’t stand there any longer.

"Hmm." Mr. Han nodded.

After nodding at them with a smile, Yan Mo left.

"Now I know why that old man Xia brags all the time, this is incredibly delicious." Said Mr. Qin.

"That old guy only shares good things, he should’ve invited us over earlier. When we see him next, we’ll give him a piece of our mind." Mr. Lin remarked.

"Yes, we need to talk some sense into him." Mr. Han nodded in agreement.

"Take it easy, his granddaughter is treating us to food and drink right now." Mrs. Mu reminded them.

"Yes, perhaps Yue is hoping you’ll go easy on her grandfather for her sake." Mrs. Lin chuckled.

"This girl has been sensible since she was young. Yes, she may be lazy and lack ambition, but at least she’s sweet, knows how to appease people, and is savvy, which is a lot better than some people in our families." Mrs. Li said.

"Even though she’s not his biological granddaughter, after so many years together they’re practically the same. People used to say that Mr. Xia wasted so many years raising her, but look now, he’s incredibly lucky to have such a capable granddaughter."

"Even his grandson is impressive, running the company efficiently, I heard they landed a big deal and made quite a sum."

"When he was younger, he had a wife. Now that he’s old, he has his granddaughter for company, his grandson making money, and he gets to enjoy his retirement with his wife. All the good things have fallen into this old man’s lap, it really is envy-inducing." Mr. Han commented rather acidly.

The others nodded in agreement. While they had younger generations in their families who were making money, none of them could match Xia Yu, and when it came to being filial, none could compare with Xia Yue who was always by their side.
