Gao Jinliang frowned and said, "If it was Qingxuan, it wouldn't be good either. Her father, Yuan Bao, was already fighting with Yuan Hu until they were bloodied. If it was her who did it, would you favor Yuan Bao?"
The old lady shook her head and said, "To be honest, my two children, Yuan Hu and Yuan Bao, are not the type to protect the family business. One is playful and the other is lustful. But Qingxuan has always been independent and is even better than Ningna. If she can master the violin skills of the highest level, my Lu family will not hesitate to spend all our wealth to bring her to prominence."
Gao Jinliang added, "But after all, her status is different from Lu Nina's. Even if she is promoted, others may not obey her."
Old Madam Yu sneered and said, "It doesn't matter if others don't obey her, as long as my husband obeys her."
After hearing this, Gao Jinliang understood.
Li Siqing stood aside, watching his nose and thinking, keeping silent, just drinking his Lu'an Guapian.
These are all Lu family affairs, and as an outsider, you absolutely cannot interfere.
Any words have to be kept in the heart.
However, he did feel some sympathy for his apprentice Lu Nina.
After a while, Butler Cheng came forward alone, lowered his head, and said:
"Today, apart from the usual people at the manor, Xiaojie, Shuying, Shengzhi, and Mingjie are not here. Only Qingxuan and Liangchen are here. In addition, there are guests coming today. This is today's guest list."
Hearing that Qingxuan and Liangchen were there, Old Lady Yu's heart skipped a beat. She took the guest list, glanced at it, and then pointed at it and said:
"I know this Chen Sheng. I have some knowledge of him. Who is Chen Ya?"
Butler Cheng said, "Chen Ya is Chen Sheng's son, born to him and his first wife."
Old Mrs. Yu said, "Isn't his son's name Chen Hai?"
"Chen Hai is his second son, and Chen Ya is the eldest. Previously, he only brought his second son to Beijing, and his eldest son stayed in the countryside. Recently, he brought his eldest son back, saying that he was accepting him home."

Old Madam Yu frowned and asked, "Doesn't Lu Ruixiang have any objections to him doing this?"
Butler Cheng said, "That's not very clear."
Old Madam Yu said angrily, "This is a bit too disrespectful of the Lu family. Back then, they were willing to accept Chen Hai, which was already the most tolerant of all. Now they have another eldest son, this... Sigh."
Gao Jinliang reminded her from the side: "Grandma, think about it, with Lu Ruixiang's personality, if she doesn't agree, can she let another person into the house?"
Mrs. Yu asked him, "What do you mean?"
Gao Jinliang chuckled and said, "Who knows, but I'm sure this is definitely not what Chen Sheng meant."
Old Madam Yu asked Butler Cheng, "How old is this Chen Ya? What's his personality like? What's his education level, and where does he work?"
Butler Cheng told the old lady everything he had learned. After listening to her, the old lady sighed and said:
“He’s not a talented person either.”
Gao Jinliang said, "This person's background is a bit vague, could it be this person?"
Old Mrs. Yu looked at Li Siqing, and Li Siqing shook his head.
"First, he didn't study music, and second, his academic qualifications are insufficient," Li Siqing said. "The level of the piece he just played is not something that someone who hasn't even graduated from junior high school can play."
After listening to this, Mrs. Yu sighed again.
Gao Jinliang smiled and said, "Grandma, I understand your eagerness to seek talented people, but you can't get anything done in a hurry. Given our family's current situation, it's useless to rely on external help. I just hope that our children and grandchildren can do better."
Old Madam Yu nodded: "Yes, others hope their sons will become successful, but I hope my grandsons will become successful. I have been worrying about this for so long, and it is enough for me to be worried about this at my age."
She lowered her head and glanced at the customer list again, saying:
"Forget it, it doesn't make any sense from this point of view. So, Butler Cheng, you listen to my arrangements."
After a pause, she continued, "Isn't it almost lunchtime? Go and tell everyone to gather at Fushou Hall so we can have lunch together."
Hearing her plan, Gao Jinliang immediately gave her a thumbs up: "Grandma, this is a great idea!"
He already knew Mrs. Yu's plan.
The old lady took a sip of tea and said, "While we're eating, I'll check on these young people to see who played Mr. Li's violin without saying hello."
…
…
When Chen Sheng received the notice to go to Fushoutang for lunch together, he felt that happiness came too quickly and almost knocked him out.
You know, only during the Chinese New Year every year would he receive an invitation to come to Guihe Manor to have a New Year's Eve dinner with the whole family.
Moreover, you are not allowed to eat at the main table in Fushou Hall, you can only eat outside the hall.
After being married to Lu Ruixiang for so many years, he doubted whether Old Master Lu remembered his face.
Who would have thought that just by bringing Chen Ya here casually today, I would encounter such a good thing!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel more favorable towards Chen Ya.
He didn't care about Chen Ya's previous behavior of running around without listening to him, but going to Fushoutang for dinner was a big deal, so he repeatedly reminded Chen Ya to be careful, which made Chen Ya impatient.
It was the Second Master who was cursing and swearing. He didn't want to have dinner with his family at all.
There are a lot of rules at the grandmother's table. If you don't pay attention, you will be glared at. He eats alone in his room, free and easy. Isn't that good?
However, the person who came to convey the message repeatedly emphasized that it was the great grandmother who made the arrangements and that he had to go. Only then did the second master reluctantly obey, and the three of them went to Fushou Hall together.
