Xavia smiled brightly.
“Grandma, serving tea has been a custom ever since ancient times. So, we will definitely have to serve you tea as a form of respect. Isn’t there an old saying that the tea served by a daughter-in-law is twice as sweet?”

Sure enough, Ava immediately got angry.
“Why? Do I need all of you to arrange what I should do? Just look at you guys. Are you going to jump up and beat me up?”
The few people’s faces turned pale. “No, Mom. We did not mean that.”
“Grandma, I am sorry. I was just wondering why there is such a vast difference when we are from the same junior generation?”
Ava yelled coldly, “Just looked at what kind of wife you married? Is she as well-behaved and sensible as Jenna? All your wife does is shop and show off all day long. You actually have the nerve to come and ask me for gifts?”
“…”
