Seeing Xu Fan's and Xu Yue's reactions, Mother Xu sighed in her heart.
This was not beyond her expectations.
After all, who could blame her when her maternal family had been so excessive.
Mother Xu, named Zhang Qingning, belonged to a family in Ningjing City that couldn't be counted as a top-tier great household; it was, at best, a second-rate one.
Everything changed when Zhang Qingning married into the Xu Family, Xu Tianlong.
The Xu Family was one of the four great families of Yanjing. With such a top-tier great household as a backer, the Zhang Family rapidly developed. In just a short span of half a year, they became a top family in Ningjing City, unparalleled in prominence.
A few more years passed, and Xu Tianlong became the Family Head of the Xu Family, with Zhang Qingning as the wife of the Family Head.
The status of the Zhang Family rose with the tide, using the names of Xu Tianlong and Zhang Qingning, they expanded their influence throughout the province.
