"Hmph, my granddaughter Bai Yixian has no trouble getting married. Although our Bai family is not as wealthy as your Gu family, we are not the kind of people who beg and plead to marry into a wealthy family. I think we should think about this marriage again."
"Qianmo, let's go!"
"Grandpa..." Bai Qianmo looked at Gu Jueye beside her with some difficulty.
Gu Jueye looked at Elder Bai with a solemn expression, as if he had suddenly understood something.
"Qianmo, you go with Grandpa Bai first. After I've dealt with things here, I'll personally go to Grandpa Bai's house to apologize."
The old man is asking him to make a statement.
Actually, he planned to resolve this issue before the wedding, as a strained relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is indeed a major problem.
He didn't want to see Qianmo marry him and then suffer mistreatment everywhere.
Old Bai turned his face away from him, and Bai Qianmo hesitated for a moment.
Since Gu Jueye has said so, he must already have a solution.
If she were to side too much with Gu Jueye at this moment, her grandfather would accuse her of being subservient.
Moreover, she was also very unhappy with what Qin Lin had just said.
If it weren't for the fact that she was Gu Jueye's biological mother, she probably would have retaliated long ago.
"What are you standing there for? Come with me!" Old Bai shouted angrily at Bai Qianmo in a rough voice.
Bai Qianmo sighed inwardly and walked to Bai Lao's side to help him up: "Don't be angry. Getting angry will only hurt your health and make you suffer in the hospital. Why bother? I'll go with you."
"Brother Bai..."
“Brother Gu, please stop talking. I think we should wait and see. My Qianmo is only twenty years old, there’s no rush.”
The implication is that it's clearly your eldest grandson who's worried, right? What's with all the arrogance?
“Yes, Qianmo is indeed still young, so… let’s leave the engagement to the two of them to discuss slowly.” Old Master Gu also decided to take a step back.
In reality, the choice was given to Gu Jueye and Bai Qianmo.
Once the two children fall in love, no amount of complaints from the grandparents on both sides will change anything.
Old Bai turned and left in a huff, too lazy to argue with Old Gu.
He also knew that if his granddaughter wanted to marry that brat from the Gu family, no matter how angry he was, there was nothing he could do about it.
"Ah Ye, quickly see your grandfather off!" Old Madam Gu hurriedly said.
This address of "your grandfather" conveniently brought them closer together.
Even if Old Bai was furious, his granddaughter was wearing an engagement ring given to him by someone else, so it seemed that calling him "Grandpa" was in accordance with the rules.
Moreover, since it was Old Madam Gu who spoke, he found it even more difficult to refute her.
Gu Jueye nodded and, in a very gentlemanly manner, personally escorted Bai Qianmo and Old Master Bai out of the Gu family gate, then opened the car door for them to get in.
After Bai Qianmo got into the car, she clung to the car window with both hands, gazing longingly at Gu Jueye.
While Old Bai wasn't looking this way, Gu Jueye reached out and affectionately pinched the little girl's cheek.
"Go back and get some rest. I'll contact you tomorrow."
Okay! Bye-bye!
Gu Jueye waved his hand and instructed Rong Yi to drive.
As the car drove away from the Gu family's old residence, Gu Jueye stood at the door and watched it leave before turning back.
"Have you sent Old Master Bai and Qianmo away?" Old Madam Gu walked over slowly.
"Well, it's getting late. You two should get some rest. I'm heading back now."
"Don't rush off. Let me ask you, what are your plans regarding your mother's situation?"
Gu Jueye sat on the sofa, looking somewhat weary, and rubbed his temples.
"She disliked Qianmo a long time ago, but because of Qianmo's identity, her misunderstanding of her deepened."
Madam Gu nodded: "Your mother is driven by vanity. She always feels that girls from ordinary families are not good enough for you, so she always tries to find someone of equal social standing to force you into a relationship. Ye Qianning before, and Huo Xiuxiu now, are the same. As long as Qianmo's identity is not acknowledged by her, she will never like Qianmo. Seventh Brother, tell me honestly, what exactly do you like about Qianmo?"
Although the two elders also liked Qianmo very much.
But they still don't know what characteristics of Qianmo made their difficult grandson so devoted to her.
Gu Jueye suddenly smiled softly, a hint of tenderness appearing in his calm and indifferent eyes.
"There's no reason, it's fine as long as it's her!"
Madam Gu suddenly started laughing too.
"You and your grandfather really do look alike."
Back then, she traveled a long way from the Ye family to marry into the Gu family in the capital. Although the Ye family was powerful and prestigious in the south.
She was the eldest daughter of the Ye family, who was showered with love and affection, but the Gu family in the capital was three points higher than the Ye family in terms of both power and status.
At that time, her husband was entrusted with important responsibilities in the army, and he was in his prime, exuding a charming aura.
It's easy to imagine how many beautiful women surrounded him, and naturally, many girls would be jealous of him and hate him.
Some people also questioned why she was the one who married Gu Guobang.
She clearly remembered that the man said it in front of everyone.
"I like her, for no reason other than because that person is her! And it can only be her!"
Looking at the young Seventh Brother now, Old Madam Gu was somewhat dazed, as it stirred up many old memories.
On the bus
Old Bai was sulking the whole way.
Rongyi would occasionally glance at the rearview mirror to observe what was happening behind her.
It seems that the Duke's marriage proposal went wrong today. Should he do something for the Duke?
"Ahem, Miss Bai, do you like today's roses?"
