This idea had been lingering in Wen Ran's mind, but she chose to pretend to be deaf and dumb, never mentioning it.
Indeed, Mrs. Xiao's integration is very good.
At least during the daytime, when interacting with outsiders, you can't see anything different, but once back home, with the door closed, Mrs. Xiao's true self gradually enlarges.
Wen Ran then could see the differences between Mrs. Xiao and ordinary rural old ladies.
Initially, Wen Ran only suspected Mrs. Xiao's unusual background, without linking it to the Capital City. But since Wen Ran came here for school, bringing the whole family along,
it became apparent that Mrs. Xiao wasn't like the others.
That kind of ease, like a fish in water.
Xiao Chenye at his core is a rough man. Noticing Wen Ran's difference already took him great effort.
To notice his mother...
emm.
Whose wife, whose problem!
"Oh dear," Wen Ran nudged Xiao Chenye, teasingly, "You blockhead! Even if I told you, you'd never know."
