Thinking about this, Gu Wanting became more insightful, and her expression towards An Yiruo became even gentler.
"An'an, eat some fruit."
"Thank you, Mom," An Yiruo said to Gu Wanting after accepting the fruit.
"We're all family, no need to be so polite," Gu Wanting said, beaming from ear to ear as An Yiruo called her "Mom."
Another day she'll go and brag to her friends that she has a daughter-in-law, and that she's a little white rabbit at that.
Thinking about this makes me feel incredibly happy.
Looking at the atmosphere of this family, An Yiruo realized that it was nothing like other wealthy families, which had many rules and a cold atmosphere.
The Mohist school gives people a sense of warmth and everyday life, unlike the An family of the past, which was full of intrigue and deceit...
“An’an, let us meet with your mother sometime to discuss the wedding arrangements. After all, you two have already registered your marriage, but your parents haven’t met yet, which is against the rules,” Gu Wanting said.
“Mom, there’s no rush about the wedding.” An Yiruo didn’t know what Mo Jingchen meant, and she didn’t want to agree rashly.
Moreover, she didn't have high expectations for this wedding.
“You silly child, a wedding is a major event in a woman’s life. Now that you’ve registered your marriage, how can you not put the wedding on the agenda?” The old lady of the Mo family said anxiously from the side as she listened to An Yiruo’s words.
"Grandma, Jingchen and I... plan to keep our marriage a secret until the time is right, and then announce it to the public." After saying this, An Yiruo turned to look at Mo Jingchen.
"Yes, Grandma. That's what we've discussed." Mo Jingchen didn't seem to be in a hurry about An Yiruo having a wedding.
He also understood that the two of them were still in the stage of getting to know each other and did not have a strong emotional foundation. It would not be too late to hold a grand wedding after their relationship had stabilized.
“You child… Jingchen, did you come up with this bad idea? An’an, if he forced you, don’t be afraid. Just tell Grandma, and Grandma will stand up for you.”
The old lady of the Mo family was very anxious because she was worried that her granddaughter-in-law, whom she had finally found, would not be allowed to be publicly married and would keep the marriage a secret. This prevented her from showing off in front of her many old friends.
“Grandma, Jingchen didn’t force me. It was a decision we made together. After all, I’m not strong enough right now to shoulder the responsibility of being the young mistress of the Mo family,” An Yiruo said truthfully.
"An'an, the title of Young Madam of the Mo family is just that—a title. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Even if the Young Madam of the Mo family makes a mistake, she is still right, because we have the right to say that," Old Madam Mo said domineeringly.
“Mom, you’re as domineering as ever,” Gu Wanting said from the side.
"That's for sure. Looking at the entire City A, which family can compare to our Mo family? In recent years, our Mo family has kept a low profile, but that doesn't mean we Mo family members are easy to bully."
When she was young, Old Mrs. Mo was a remarkable person. She had seen all kinds of storms and waves, so why would she care about these things?
"Mom is right, but since Jingchen and the other two have already made up their minds, they naturally have their own ideas, and as elders, we shouldn't interfere too much."
However, An'an, we should still find some time to meet with your mother; it's only proper etiquette.
An Yiruo listened to Gu Wanting's words and thought they made sense, so she nodded and said, "I understand, Mom."
"Good girl." Gu Wanting then looked at Mo Jingchen: "Jingchen, take An'an around for a walk, and come back for dinner later."
"I understand," Mo Jingchen replied, then stepped forward, took An Yiruo's hand, and walked out the door.
"Mom, look at those two, they're such a perfect match," Gu Wanting said, her smile unwavering as she watched the two figures disappear.
"They are a good match, but Jingchen is a bit too old. It would be better if he were a few years younger," said the matriarch of the Mo family.
"Oh dear, Mom. You mustn't say that in front of An'an. What if she thinks Jingchen is too old? And she's the only one who's ever been able to get close to Jingchen. If she thinks Jingchen is too old, then Jingchen will be a bachelor for life."
Gu Wanting immediately told Old Madam Mo to spit three times to make all the bad things disappear.
They were terrified that their hard-won daughter-in-law would disappear.
"Don't worry, as long as Jingchen is willing, An Yiruo, this little white rabbit, won't escape the clutches of Mo Jingchen, this big bad wolf," said Old Madam Mo, pointing in the direction the two had left.
"But... Jing Chen is a strong person in other aspects, but he is still a blank slate when it comes to love."
Faced with Gu Wanting's concerns, the old lady of the Mo family also fell into deep thought, and then said, "It's alright, when the time is right, we can give them a push."
"Mom, what do you want to do? Do you have a plan?" Gu Wanting asked curiously.
"The secrets of heaven cannot be revealed. Just wait and see how you hold your grandson," the old lady of the Mo family said with a wicked smile.
"Mom, you're always leaving us hanging. But it's so good to see that Jingchen has someone he likes." At this moment, Gu Wanting nestled beside Mo Zhiyuan, looking at her son and daughter-in-law in the distance, and couldn't help but want to shed tears.
"Alright, wife, we have such a joyous occasion today, you should be happy, don't cry," Mo Zhiyuan gently wiped away Gu Wanting's tears and coaxed her softly.
"Yes, you're right, we should be happy today. I'll go to the kitchen to see how the food preparation is going."
