The elders of the Li, Rong, and Fu families gathered together, almost all of them surrounding Li Zhanfeng's room.
Old Master Li, clearly having spent most of the night worrying about Li Zhanfeng's illness, huffed and puffed with dark circles under his eyes as he spoke:
"What, now you know Rou Rou belongs to your Rong and Fu families? Why didn't you do something to get Rou Rou recognized by her ancestors back then? I don't care, your Rong and Fu families owe our Li family two granddaughters-in-law. We, the Li family, have taken Mo Mo, and we have Rou Rou too! What, you two families want to fight over her? Come on, come on, let's have a fight first!"
His energetic appearance made him look decades younger, brimming with fighting spirit.
Upon hearing this, Old Master Rong became so angry that he huffed and puffed, and it looked like he was ready to fight Old Master Li.
"I disagree! I, this old man, disagree a thousand times over! Is your Li family lacking daughters and granddaughters? All you do is try to snatch granddaughters from our Rong family all day long? You like Momo and Rourou, huh? If you're so capable, why don't you let your son and daughter-in-law have a pair of babies themselves? Heh heh, can't have any, huh? If you can't have any, then let your Zhan Feng marry into the family! Marry into the family, the Rong family and the Fu family will wholeheartedly agree!"
What a joke! Momo and Rourou are both the apple of the Rong and Fu families' eye, and Rourou has finally been recognized by her ancestors.
If Rou Rou likes Li Zhanfeng, he will certainly agree, but the key issue is—
He couldn't let the two little darlings of the Rong family be lured to the Li family by those two brats from the Li family!
"Alright, alright..." Old Master Fu casually narrowed his eyes, smiling knowingly, "If all else fails, then let Zhan Ting and Zhan Feng both marry into the family. Oh, don't worry, Old Man Li, we've been friends for years, how could we possibly betray our friends? We, the Rong family and the Fu family, guarantee that we'll raise Zhan Ting and Zhan Feng as our own sons!"
That carefree tone was like stabbing Old Master Li in the heart.
So before he could even bring Momo and Rourou to the Li family, he sold his two grandsons to someone else.
"So, you two old hags, you're ganging up on me, aren't you?" Old Master Li was so angry that he was practically ready to take off his shoes and start a fight.
Grandpa Rong laughed smugly: "Well, there's nothing I can do! What can I do? I'm related to Old Fu by marriage! Old Li, I think you should just bear with it for now. After all, we're both practically in the grave. If we just bear with it a little longer, our lives will just pass by like this!"
Old Master Li nearly coughed up a mouthful of blood and almost kicked the bucket to meet the King of Hell.
I'll tolerate your banana peel, okay?
Gu Wanrou saw the elders arguing incessantly from afar, and her eyes were slightly dazed.
Suddenly I realized that this kind of bickering and teasing is actually quite blissful; after all, that's what life is all about.
Just then, Grandpa Fu also suddenly saw Gu Wanrou.
His deep eyes immediately softened with a kind light as he struggled to control his excitement: "Rou Rou, you're here too?"
Grandpa Rong's eyes gleamed with excitement: "Oh! Rou Rou, come here quickly!"
As he spoke, Old Master Fu strode over to Gu Wanrou, taking two steps at a time, and led her to a dry place:
"My dear child, you should have told Grandpa before coming here so that someone could have come to pick you up. Look, you're all soaked. Let Grandpa help you dry off so you don't catch a cold, girl."
Actually, Gu Wanrou only got a little wet from the rain when she got out of the car, but Old Master Fu was still heartbroken.
This is his granddaughter, whom he finally found after a long time. She is also Jin Ye's precious darling, and he must protect her well for Jin Ye.
The three elderly people's distressed gazes clearly fell into Gu Wanrou's heart. Gu Wanrou felt as if her whole heart was enveloped by a warm flame, warmed and roasted, as if she was about to melt into this inseparable atmosphere.
She smiled and said, "Grandpa, it's alright. I only got a little wet, it's nothing."
The more sensible she was, the more the three old men felt sorry for her.
This girl is so sensible because she was used to hardship.
Those young ladies who have lived with a silver spoon in their mouths since childhood probably can't bear to get even a drop of rain on them.
Grandpa Rong quickly said with concern, "Rou Rou, things are different now. Before, you had to work hard to make a living on your own, but now you are the little princess of the Fu and Rong families. You don't have to suffer those hardships before, and you don't necessarily have to do the things you had to do on your own. You need to learn to make use of the servants and resources of the Rong and Fu families and enjoy life, understand?"
Grandpa Li quickly added, "Your maternal grandfather is right! The Rong family's little princess should live like a little princess!"
His voice quickly softened, as if coaxing Gu Wanrou: "By the way, I've already given Zhan Feng a good scolding."
"You don't need to blame yourself. That brat was incompetent to protect you and ended up getting injured himself. That's his own fault."
Gu Wanrou was slightly shocked by Old Master Li's words.
She quickly explained, "Grandpa Li, you've misunderstood. Actually, he did it to save me..."
To everyone's surprise, Old Master Li's expression turned serious: "Rou Rou, his injury has nothing to do with you."
"The men of our Li family are born romantics. If they can't even protect the woman they want to protect, what is that if not incompetence? If he can't protect you, he doesn't deserve to be your man. After all, survival of the fittest prevails in this world!"
"Don't worry, Grandpa has already taught him a lesson. If he dares to yell at you again, just tell Grandpa."
