Along the way, Gao Xun drove in silence.
Xiao Tian, who had been chattering non-stop with Su Man while they were shopping, seemed to have been poisoned into silence. She didn't say a word and suddenly became quiet.
The atmosphere in the car was weird and eerie.
Su Man asked Xiao Tian what was wrong, but Xiao Tian just kept shaking his head.
"Are you poisoned and mute?" Su Man couldn't help but ask Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian looked at Su Man aggrievedly.
Gao Xun, who was driving, didn't react at all, as if he had completely blocked out the people and movements in the back seat.
Su Man probably understood: there was a quarrel.
Gao Xun drove the car back to Manyuan, picked up Doudou, and then set off for the Xiao family's old house.
With Doudou as her "toy", Xiao Tian was not as nervous as she was at the beginning, and the atmosphere along the way became much more relaxed.
When we arrived at the old house, before the car even stopped, people were already gathered around, talking in great anticipation:
"Here they come, the young lady and the young master are here."
As soon as Su Man got out of the car with Doudou in her arms, Mrs. Xiao came forward with the support of Aunt Mei.
Although Mrs. Xiao missed her great-grandson very much, she was not only concerned about Doudou, "Aunt Mei, help Su Man hold the child."
"Hey." Aunt Mei responded and took Doudou from Su Man's arms.
Madam Xiao went up and took Su Man's hand. "Thank you and Bei Sheng for your hard work recently."
Su Man smiled and shook her head: "It's not hard. How are you feeling recently?"
"All is well." Old Madam Xiao smiled kindly...
"Although it was a show to deceive Tao Jinmei and Luo Yan last time, you also suffered a lot. I'm glad that you didn't get hurt." Su Man said.
Madam Xiao was full of energy: "What could happen? I'm still strong!"
Aunt Mei laughed beside her and said, "The old lady is taking good care of herself now. She's just afraid of getting sick. She always says that you young people have important things to do now, so she has to take care of herself and can't cause any more trouble for you!"
Madam Xiao said, "Isn't it? Not causing you any trouble is helping you."
Xiao Tian also came over and took Old Madam Xiao's arm, and the group walked in lively.
The relatives and friends of the Xiao family, as well as the servants in the old house, all saw the current situation: Su Man was not as the rumors said, a mother who was honored by her son, and she herself was also very much favored by Old Madam Xiao.
From Mrs. Xiao's attitude towards Su Man, everyone also assessed Su Man's future position in the Xiao family.
This master cannot be neglected.
It was not yet dinner time, and everyone gathered in the hall leading to the yard.
Old Madam Xiao held Doudou and chatted with Su Man.
A few children were chasing and playing, and bumped into Xiao Tian. Xiao Tian then grabbed their ears and asked them to go find their parents to complain.
The women were in the refreshment area, enjoying afternoon drinks and snacks while chatting about the latest bags and jewelry.
The uncles and aunts were outside in the garden and yard, chatting in groups of three or four.
When Xiao Beisheng hurried home, he saw such a happy scene.
He locked onto Suman in the crowd at a glance.
She sat there, occasionally answering a few questions from others, but most of the time, she just sat there quietly, smiling calmly.
Xiao Beisheng quickly walked up the stairs and entered the door in two steps, wanting to get to Su Man as soon as possible.
But as soon as he entered the door, he was discovered by the uncles and aunts of the Xiao family. They surrounded Xiao Beisheng in groups of three or five, vying to ask him some questions about financial investment matters.
He answered patiently, but was a little absent-minded, and kept glancing towards Su Man from time to time.
On Su Man's side, the old lady and Xiao Tian had also noticed Xiao Beisheng. Xiao Tian joked with everyone, "Look at my cousin. He couldn't wait to find Teacher Su as soon as he walked in. Now he's stuck. He's so anxious. My dad and the others are just like roadblocks."
This caused a group of people to burst into laughter.
Su Man scolded: "Tiantian, don't talk nonsense."
"I'm not talking nonsense. I'm betting that when my cousin comes over, the first person he'll look for will definitely be Teacher Su." Xiao Tian was very confident.
Su Man thought for a moment and said, "I think he will look for the old lady first."
"Then let's see. If I win the bet, Teacher Su will accompany me on a week-long vacation abroad. If I lose... If I lose, I will give Teacher Su an Hermès bag."
Xiao Beisheng on the other end was probably really anxious.
Seeing that his uncles were still not stopping, he found an excuse, stopped everyone's questioning, pushed through the crowd, and walked straight to the main hall where the female relatives were.
