Xia Nuannuan was stumped at once .

Shen Zihao addressed Mei Feng as Aunty Mei, and when they had first been introduced, he had addressed the woman as Aunty Mei .

As his wife, of course, she followed his lead .

That was why she called her Aunty Mei .

But now… Shen Xiu wanted her to address the woman as Mom?

While it was true that legally Mei Feng was Shen Zihao’s mother, this was 21st century .

Besides, when Mei Feng married Shen Xiu, Shen Zihao had already been in his mid teens .

Shen Xiu had had no way of forcing the grown boy to address her as his mother . So now…

Xia Nuannuan was caught in-between .

She did not know Mei Feng well and had no idea what sort of person the woman was .

However, if she did not address Aunty Mei as Mom, it would anger her father-in-law . On the other hand, calling her Mom may anger her husband .

Hence, the moment Shen Xiu appeared, he had thrown her a hot potato .

Just as Xia Nuannuan moved her lips in a bid to say something, Mei Feng interrupted her and stepped forward saying, “That’s enough for now . I’m the stepmother, what’s the big deal? The food is ready . Let’s go and eat!”

Frowning at that remark, Shen Xiu chided her, “A stepmother is a mother too . In the future, she is to be addressed Mom . Who taught you to call her Aunty Mei?”

Xia Nuannuan was stumped once again by his words .

This was her first meeting with her father-in-law . Even though she knew that he didn’t like her, how could he berate her in the presence of her own parents?

She bit her lip . However, before she could say anything, her father spoke, “Old brother, this is where you’re wrong . You don’t have a say in the way Nuannuan should address her . ”

The remark was made in an affectionate manner and did not sound offensive at all .

Looking at Dad Xia, Shen Xiu asked, “Then who has a say?”

“Zihao, of course! Nuannuan is Zihao’s wife, of course, she has to obey him . ”

Shen Xiu immediately furrowed his brow and said, “By right, Zihao should address Mei Feng as Mom . ”

Dad Xia laughed heartily and said, “That’s right, this child Zihao, he doesn’t know his manners! When I see him later, I shall give him a sound reminder . ”

With that, he took care of Shen Xiu .

Didn’t you say that our Nuannuan is ignorant? This was how your son Zihao taught her to be .

This was the point that Dad Xia had so subtly made in his remark .

Shen Xiu ceased to speak about this matter . Instead, he cleared his throat and turned to Mei Feng, asking, “Is dinner ready?”

She smiled and said at once, “I’ll take a look inside, please have a seat . ”

Following this, she got someone to serve tea .

Even the Shen Family’s tea set was different from the ones that were commonly used outside .

Looking at the tiny accessories, Xia Nuannuan looked at her parents nervously .

Dad Xia and Mom Xia were also looking quite stressed at the intricacies that would be involved in using it . Afraid of embarrassing his daughter, Dad Xia politely declined it and said, “Our family doesn’t have the habit of drinking tea before a meal, we won’t have any tea then . ”

Upon hearing this, Mom Xia was relieved at once .

However, Xia Nuannuan felt a pinch in her heart just observing the situation .

Her father had never liked doing such petty acts, but now he had to for her sake…

Was this marriage really the right thing for her?

As she was contemplating this, Shen Xiu continued, “Since the children have registered their marriage, we will have to discuss the wedding plans then . ”

Dad Xia nodded at once, agreeing, “That’s right, we had to hurry and come because of this matter . Do you have an idea about when you would like the event to take place?”

Shen Xiu coughed once and said, “Because of how quickly they registered their marriage, we were caught completely unprepared . ”

Dad Xia’s expression froze when he heard these words .
