Chapter 1654 We Do Not Agree

The mother-and-daughter duo both knew very well in their hearts whether this was a matter of thinking too much. Why would a prominent family like the Xia family invite them for no reason? Furthermore, the invite was only sent to their family.

Mo Zhu had always been a child who knew her place. Her parents usually respected her opinions, but they were still the ones who made the decisions on key matters. This time round, she had actually forced her father, Mo Chou, to mobilize everyone he knew to help look for the Xia family's in-law.

Although the Mo family was not involved in the political, business and military fields, it did not discount the fact that they had taught many people who were in these fields. The Mo family's students could be found in all kinds of industries.

If the Xia family was just hosting a dinner to express their gratitude to the Mo family, they need not have made it such a grand event.

"Once we're there, we'll know whether I'm right or not. If that kid from the Xia family doesn't make things clear, then it'll never be possible between the two of you. I won't agree to it," Liu Shu said sternly.

"I already know how to cook. Otherwise, what do you think I eat every day! Dewdrops from the sky! I'm not an immortal! Why don't you just admit that you're the only one who doesn't know how to cook? Look at Qiao Mei, then look at Mo Zhu! They both know how to cook, but you don't know anything! Learning to cook is not to benefit other people, it's so that you can still survive when times are tough!" Xia Wen said disdainfully.

"I can accept it if you want to talk about Qiao Mei, but how do you know that Mo Zhu knows how to cook! Besides, why are you comparing Qiao Mei to Mo Zhu? Can it be that you've been thinking about her for a long time? You said before that you don't like her!" Xia He roared.

"Madam~ Please stop hassling me! Just go and do something else! Sister Wan Wen is preparing the crockery and cutlery and menu for tomorrow! Aren't you going over to help her!" Xia Wen said as he pointed at the storeroom.

Xia He curled her lips in disdain and walked away. Xia Wen sighed. He did not know how Deng Fan could tolerate Xia He. How could he stand such a "crazy woman"!

After the family hurriedly finished their meal, they started to tidy up the house. They even made sure that all the corners were clear of dust. They were so meticulous that the angle at which the items were displayed had to be precise.

Qiao Mei was in charge of choosing the clothes and accessories for the family, as well as the crockery to use tomorrow. She was the one with the best aesthetics standards in the family and was the most suitable person for this job!

Xia Zhe and Xia Wen were assigned the manual work. They were in charge of sweeping and mopping the floor, changing and washing the bedsheets and rearranging the furniture in the various rooms, among other duties.

Xia He and Wan Wen stayed in the kitchen to finalize the menu, ingredients and count the utensils for tomorrow. These chores were left to the two of them.
