Linlang and Amu went back to the room to change clothes and prepare to go to the Marquis' Mansion. This time they went to formally recognize their relationship.
"This is my first time going to the Marquis' Mansion, Ah Mu. What gift do you think would be good to bring to the old lady?"
After all, there had been some unpleasantness before, and the old lady had a stubborn temper. Linlang was still a little worried. She didn't want things to get unpleasant and embarrass her parents and brothers.
"Bring the Ginseng Nourishing Pills with you. They are priceless treasures. The old lady will definitely like them."
Ah Mu explained to Linlang, "The old lady feels that her status in the Marquis' Mansion is supreme. If we go there and treat her with respect and humility, and flatter her a little, she will definitely not be angry. Instead, she will be very happy."
"Let's not worry about the relationship between the old lady and my mother. You are her granddaughter, she will definitely feel sorry for you. When you get there, you just play the victim, and she won't have time to feel sorry for you."
The old lady had lived in the countryside for more than ten years. No matter how good her family treated her, her life was not as good as that in the marquis's mansion in the capital. Naturally, she would sympathize with Linlang.
Linlang felt that Ah Mu's analysis was particularly thorough. "Okay, then I'll do as you say. I'll play the victim."
The couple looked at each other and smiled.
Over there, Rong Yi, Xiao Yujian and Mo'er all changed into new clothes and accompanied Linlang to the Marquis' Mansion.
Su Nanting looked at the young people in the room, each one more energetic than the other, and was extremely satisfied. He laughed heartily and said, "Let's go."
Song led Linlang onto the carriage and said, "Don't worry. Your father came to take you home personally, which means he has already made arrangements for the old lady. With your father here, the old lady will have to hold back even if she's unhappy."
Linlang joked, "My dad is really good at fighting on the battlefield, coaxing my mom, and managing the relationships at home in perfect order."
"Your father is very good at making things work, and he's thick-skinned, which is really good."
Song smiled and said, "It's because your father is at home that the atmosphere is so relaxed. When your father is not at home, I hardly ever leave the yard. Your grandmother is the best at being sarcastic to me. The more I ignore her and don't argue with her, the angrier she gets."
"I think she's lonely too. After all, there are only a few of us in the mansion, and she has no one to talk to. But when you talk to her, she gets sarcastic."
Mrs. Song comforted Linlang, "But you are different. You are her granddaughter. We are blood relatives, and she will love you. Just coax her more. After all, she is the elder. Your grandfather is away from home all year round, and she is quite lonely."
In fact, Song sympathized with the mother-in-law, but there was always something hateful about the pitiful person. She was not a good person and would be picky and aggressive in front of her daughter-in-law. She wanted to get along well with her, but she wanted to suppress her daughter-in-law and show off her mother-in-law's power.
"In fact, as long as you go along with your grandmother and act a little coquettishly, making her feel that she is important to you, she will be easy to get along with. Look at Gu Yuanfang, she grasped this point of your grandmother, and your grandmother doted on her like her own granddaughter."
"Don't worry, mom. I will never go against her. After all, she is the elder and I will give in to her." Linlang couldn't learn Gu Yuanfang's tricks. She was her grandmother, and she had harmed them before because she believed in slander.
However, if she doesn't treat her well and targets her everywhere, she won't let her be bullied.
Song knew her daughter's temper. She wouldn't tolerate being wronged, so she wasn't worried about the old lady bullying her. But now that she was pregnant, she had to be more careful.
Along the way, Song introduced the Marquis' Mansion, and the mother and daughter chatted and laughed. Soon they arrived at the door of the Marquis' Mansion.
"We're here. Madam and Linlang, please get off the carriage." Su Nanting got off the horse and walked over, extending his hand to his wife and daughter.
Song gave him a reproachful look, helped him get off the carriage, and warned him, "Linlang, go slower."
"Thank you, father."
Linlang got off the carriage and followed her parents. Amu, Moer, Ajian and her brothers stood in a row and looked over, giving Linlang a feeling of returning home in glory.
The housekeeper had already been waiting at the door with everyone in the mansion. When they saw people coming, they bowed and greeted them, welcoming the eldest young lady back home, welcoming the eldest brother-in-law, welcoming Master Rong and all the distinguished guests.
Linlang looked at them and felt that they should hold two big red flowers in their hands, and the atmosphere would be there.
Song's eyes sparkled with tears as she held Linlang's hand tightly and said, "We're home, come in."
"Yes, let's go home." Su Nanting walked in front, followed by Song holding Linlang, and then the three brothers Su Jinrui invited Amu and the others into the house.
The family entered the mansion, and the housekeeper lit firecrackers to welcome the young lady home. Many people knew that the young lady of the Marquis's mansion had returned, and that she was the genius doctor Rong, so they came to celebrate. The housekeeper prepared wedding money and shared the joy with everyone, which received more blessings.
Under the guidance of Su Nanting, they arrived at the old lady's yard.
The old lady changed her clothes and heard the sound of firecrackers coming from the front door. She quickly adjusted her clothes and hair and asked, "Madam Wu, do I look okay?"
"The old lady is dignified and generous, and looks kind. Miss Sun will definitely feel your kindness and like you." Nanny Wu sent someone to watch at the door, and when the person was almost there, she hurried in to report.
"That's good." When meeting her granddaughter for the first time, she still had to be more confident. After all, something unpleasant had happened before, and the old lady was still a little nervous.
"Madam, the Marquis and his wife are coming this way with the young lady. They are almost at the gate."
The old lady quickly sat up straight and stared at the door curtain. Nanny Wu stood at the door, waiting for the masters.
"Mother, mother, your son has brought your good granddaughter back." As soon as Su Nanting stepped into the yard, he started shouting with a cheerful tone.
The old lady looked up and saw Su Nanting striding ahead. If it weren't for the younger generation, he would have jumped for joy. This son, in his forties, was still as naive as a child.
This family cannot survive without a mother like her.
The old lady looked past Su Nanting and behind him. She saw Linlang, who was holding Song's hand, and she looked at her carefully. She was outstanding in appearance and slender in figure, half a head taller than Song. She was a descendant of their Su family, and Su people were tall and straight.
And her temperament is most similar to her elder brother. He is like a miracle doctor, and it is not just what people brag about.
Seeing this, the old lady had a good first impression of her granddaughter and accepted her as a member of the Su family. In fact, during the time when Linlang came to the capital, the old lady wanted to secretly visit her, but she felt that it would lose her status, so she suppressed her urge to do so.
Seeing Linlang getting closer, the old lady became nervous and tried hard to look kind and approachable.
"A son pays his respects to his mother."
"The daughter-in-law meets her mother and pays her respects."
Then the three brothers paid their respects to their grandmother. Seeing her three eldest grandsons, the old lady smiled and asked them to sit down and talk.
During this time, Linlang was also looking at her grandmother. Her father looked a bit like her grandmother, and when he was serious, his temperament was definitely like her grandfather.
Grandmother glared at my father and just nodded to my mother. She rarely smiled at my brothers, but was kind to the younger generation.
She is pretty much the same as I imagined, a graceful and elegant old lady, but for her own reasons, she is a bit too picky.
Linlang walked gracefully to the center and knelt down to pay her respects. "Granddaughter Linlang greets Grandmother. I pay my respects to you."
