Su Qingyu turned around calmly and started chatting with Mrs. Wang.
Old Madam Song glanced at Su Qingyu and understood what she meant.
"Today, no one without an invitation will be received. If anyone has something to ask, please leave a note."
Su Shunci had come to the Song family several times before, and Old Lady Song had also met her several times. Seeing that she was straightforward and generous, she liked her very much.
So when he knew that she was kicked out of the Su family, he became angry.
When she heard that Su Chengye was coming today, Old Madam Song naturally didn't want him to come in.
After another half hour, a maid came in to report that the auspicious time had arrived.
Everyone stood up and moved to the main hall.
Previously, Song Wanwan took Su Shunci to familiarize herself with the Song family residence, and was also invited back at this time.
Shen Zhixiu also came from the outer courtyard and stood beside Su Qingyu.
After the godparents recognition ceremony began, Old Lady Song, Marquis Song Zan, and Marquis’ wife Wang sat in the main seats.
Su Shunci knelt down and kowtowed according to the rules, then changed her words to call her grandmother, adoptive father, adoptive mother, and offered tea.
The three of them gave gifts, and Wang personally helped Su Shunci up and spoke lovingly.
"We in the Song family only have one daughter, Wanwan. It's a rare chance for you to be with us. You will also be a daughter of the Song family in the future."
"The Qingning Residence next to Wanwan's yard is still empty. I've already ordered someone to clean it up. You can come home and stay for a while anytime. If you like, you can also bring your mother to live directly at the Song family."
Su Shunci said obediently, "I will be filial to my mother, my adoptive father, my adoptive mother, and my grandmother from now on. My mother and I will not live at home permanently, but don't worry, I will come back often. Don't dislike me when the time comes."
The little girl was well-behaved, with dimples when she smiled, and she spoke in a playful but not frivolous way. The more Wang looked at her, the more she liked her.
Wang was a very child-oriented person, so Su Shunci changed her name and called her stepmother, and Wang really loved her from the bottom of her heart.
After changing her words, Mrs. Wang personally combed Su Shunci's hair and changed her into the jewelry prepared by the Song family.
Su Qingyu and Lin Wuchen exchanged a glance. This set of jewelry was comparable to Lin Wuchen's. After Lin Wuchen entered the mansion, he also saw the Song family's attitude clearly and finally felt relieved.
Afterwards, Su Shunci paid her respects to the elders of the Song family and to all the brothers and sisters. Everyone received a gift, and it was obvious that they were all carefully selected.
Su Shunci was not greedy for those gifts. Feeling valued was enough to make her happy.
After the recognition of relatives, there is a family dinner.
The entire Song family was filled with joy and excitement.
As lively as the Song family is, as gloomy and desolate the Su family is.
Su Chengye, Su Chengyan, and He sat on brocade stools, surrounding the old lady's bed.
When the old lady heard that Su Chengye did not enter the Song family's gate, she looked a little unhappy.
When Su Shunci was kicked out, they didn't think much of it. At that time, rumors were circulating that the fourth daughter of the Su family must have done something extremely treasonous and was kicked out.
Filial piety has been the most important virtue since ancient times. People who don't know the truth will not say that the Su family is wrong. They will only think that it was Su Shunci who was disobedient and unfilial, which caused the elders in the family to make a fuss.
But today, the Song family honored Su Shunci, which was equivalent to a slap in the face of the Su family.
The daughter that the Su family didn't want was welcomed into the Song family with fanfare.
That is the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty, which the Su family cannot reach even if they stand on tiptoe.
There was silence for a while, and then the old lady sighed and spoke.
"It's alright if you can't invite Lin Wanyin back. She's not just an ordinary woman in the inner chamber."
"But Aunt Lian, you have to invite her back to me."
Su Chengye raised his head and asked, "Mother, do you mean to take them back home?"
He always felt that something was wrong. Was it because the Su family's feng shui was bad? How come one after another, after leaving the Su family, they all lived so well?
Lin Wanyin is easy to deal with, because she is the daughter of the Lin family and has the support of her father, brothers, nephews and nephews.
How could Concubine Ke Lian and Su Shunci, a concubine and a concubine of the Su family, encounter such a great opportunity after leaving the mansion?
After becoming a godparent to the Song family, Su Shunci's future marriage prospects, as well as her status and connections in the capital, will all improve.
The family that the Su family had not been able to marry into for three hundred years became Su Shunci's parents' family.
Su Chengye even secretly wondered whether he should find a Feng Shui master to take a look.
Seeing him in a daze, the old lady snorted unhappily, "Boss, did you hear what I said? Go tomorrow and invite Aunt Lian and her daughter back."
"As long as they come back, the Song and Su families will become relatives. The Song family will definitely give the Su family the face they deserve."
Su Chengye came back to his senses, "I'm afraid it's difficult. Ah Ci is very opinionated now."
He could no longer act like a father to his two daughters, Su Qingyu and Su Shunci.
When facing Su Qingyu, he often feels a little timid.
When the old lady heard him say this, she glared at him with disappointment.
"No matter how strong their ideas are, you are still their father. How can I disobey you?"
Su Chengye smiled bitterly, thinking, "Are there not enough disobedient people like this?" In the end, he couldn't do anything to them.
But he didn't really want to drive them out of the house before, it was just a tirade between father and daughter. So when the old lady asked to take them back, he didn't object.
"Ah Ci is stubborn and opinionated. I'll discuss this with Su Lian in a couple of days. Su Lian has always been gentle and polite, so she should want to come back too."
Su Chengye thought about it and became more determined to pick them up. He thought if he gave them a way out, the matter would be over.
Unfortunately, he didn't understand Bai Sulian.
Ever since Su Shunci became a godparent of the Song family, his shop's business has been getting better and better, and there has been no more trouble.
In the following days, the cotton ordered by Lin Wanyin and the cotton cloth ordered by Su Shunci arrived in Beijing one after another.
Su Shunci was too busy to handle everything herself, so Su Qingyu went out of the house for several days to help deal with these matters.
That day, Su Shunci told her that Su Chengye had gone to Elm Alley to take her and her daughter back to the Su family. He had even chosen to do so when Su Shunci was away, and only discussed the matter with Bai Sulian.
Su Qingyu was startled and asked what Aunt Lian said. Su Shunci smiled and said that her mother had directly kicked the person out without even smiling.
Su Qingyu finally breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Aunt Lian was not confused.
It was early September. Normally, the weather would have been chilly by this time of year, but this year it was still warm. The servants were supposed to be changing into autumn clothes, but they were still wearing summer clothes.
Su Qingyu carefully prepared a birthday gift for the old lady of the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion, and began to choose clothes and jewelry to celebrate the birthday.
"Madam, the third cousin is here and is waiting to see you in the hall."
Jade came in and reported in a low voice.
