"What are you two doing, in-laws?" Madam Nan asked, looking at the two who were embracing tightly. "Am I disturbing you?"
Madam Xiao quickly composed herself and gently shook her head.
"Yanyan said you like water chestnut cake from Xicheng, so I asked someone to bring some for you." Madam Nan said, carrying an exquisite bag containing a delicate gift box.
This water chestnut cake shop is a century-old establishment, and the taste has always been excellent. Although the price is not very expensive, Xicheng is where Mrs. Xiao once lived for a period of time, so she misses the taste of her childhood. In the past, whenever she missed this taste, Mr. Xiao would accompany her there.
Madam Xiao watched as Madam Nan approached her with some things in her hands. Madam Nan's attention was entirely on Madam Xiao, and she didn't even glance at her husband.
Previously, Madam Mo would always subtly observe her husband, simply because she felt that having another person around would inevitably draw her attention more.
"Thank you for your kindness, in-laws," Madam Xiao replied softly.
Madam Nan placed the things on the table, reached out and touched her cheek: "Why are your eyes so red? Did your husband bully you?"
Is this even possible? Isn't Mr. Xiao always known to cherish his wife?
Madam Xiao gently shook her head: "Something just happened, it's nothing."
Madam Nan held her hand tightly again: "You can tell me anything. From now on, we are family. Just ask if you need any help."
Even before this relationship existed, Madam Nan acted this way because the children from both families got along well, and she had been Wan Ge's godmother before, so she always told them to just ask if they needed anything.
Moreover, the Nan family has indeed done so, and they have helped the Xiao family quite a bit over the years.
I initially thought they were just similar families, but later I discovered that the Nan family's hidden power was unfathomable.
Madam Nan patted her head: "I came here today for another matter, to ask you... about the engagement of the two children, is there anything you are not satisfied with?"
The Nan family has always done a good job in this regard. Even though it was their daughter who took the initiative to do such a thing to their little darling, the Nan family has always shouldered the responsibility of being the husband's family.
It seems that no matter the reason, once you've touched someone's daughter, you should take responsibility for her.
"I'm very satisfied; you've arranged everything perfectly." Mr. Nan was very busy, but he still made sure his subordinates treated this matter with utmost seriousness. Mrs. Nan also supervised the entire process, taking it very seriously even though it was just an engagement party and not a wedding.
"That's good!" Madam Nan smiled, her delicate face beaming with a gentle smile.
…
After that, Madam Xiao did not take the initiative to find Madam Mo, seemingly waiting for the latter to take the initiative to find her.
Wan Ge's engagement banquet was approaching, and the day before the banquet, Madam Nan said she would take the two children to see it and learn about the process.
Wan Ge wasn't actually that concerned, because all she wanted was to be with him. But she knew this would give Yan Yan a sense of security, so she still chose to hold an engagement banquet.
When Wan Ge arrived at the scene, holding Nan Chuyan's hand, many staff members were still arranging flowers.
The flowers were ordered a long time ago, but because they were afraid of wilting, the flowers were only started to be decorated the day before.
