The Wen family planned to hold a banquet on the last day of December. A sudden heavy snowfall foreshadowed a bountiful year, and Old Madam Wen felt that the heavy snow was an auspicious sign. So, she planned to tell everyone at the end of the year that her granddaughter had returned.
Since a homecoming banquet is being held, changing the name is an unavoidable topic.
Wen Gaohan felt that whether or not someone had a name didn't really matter.
He doesn't care what his last name is.
Grandma Wen and Grandpa Wen also followed Qiao Wanyue's advice. They had another concern: the child was so old now, and had relatives and friends who were already familiar with his original name.
If she changes her name to a new one, Wanyue will have to adapt, and so will the people around her.
But the Liang family disagreed.
Grandma Liang suggested that he take her family name, Liang.
Before the suggestion reached Qiao Wanyue's ears, she was scolded by Old Madam Wen until her face turned red. Old Madam Wen, who never cursed, was so angry that her face turned red and her neck bulged. She immediately had a fierce battle with Old Madam Liang.
The suggestion was to have the baby die in the womb.
The banquet was overseen by Mr. and Mrs. Wen.
The event was handed over to the restaurant.
Investor Mrs. Liang.
After all, they have plenty of money.
Both the Wen and Liang families have many guests, so the Wen and Liang families will handle the invitations themselves; Qiao Wanyue doesn't need to worry about it.
She was inviting her friends and family.
Qiao Wanyue knew that Old Madam Wen wanted everyone to know that her surname was Wen, so she invited her roommate, several new friends, people from the Lu family, and some former leaders in Beijing.
There were quite a lot of people.
The venue that Grandma Wen initially found was too small, so she decided to hold the event in a courtyard house under Qiao Wanyue's name.
Banquet entry process
Grandma Liang went to the mental hospital and met Liang Yu.
When she saw Liang Yu, she could hardly believe it. In just one year, she looked more than ten years older than the last time they met. Her hair was completely white, and she looked older than herself.
“Mom.” Liang Yu was thrilled to see her mother.
She's been locked up here, and apart from Liang Xiu, Wen Bing, and the person who delivers her medicine every day, she hasn't seen anyone else. She's going crazy from being cooped up like this. Those people inexplicably feed her medicine every day.
She often felt disoriented and didn't know what year it was.
Seeing her like this, Old Mrs. Liang sighed, "I came today to tell you that Wanyue has gone home. The homecoming banquet is on the 29th, and I've given her what was rightfully yours."
She's amazing; she doubled the company's revenue in just six months.
Liang Yu stared blankly at her mother, and it took her a long time to realize who her mother was talking about.
"Wanyue, my daughter." She looked at Old Madam Liang, her eyes filled with struggle.
Grandma Liang said, "I've come to tell you that my health is also failing, and I won't be coming anymore." She glanced at the madman in the corner, her eyes silent. "I will discuss with Wen Gaohan about sending you to his family's sanatorium, so that we can fulfill our mother-daughter bond."
She knew that this would hurt Wanyue's feelings, which was why she hadn't brought it up until Liang Xiuzhen went mad. After all, she was her own daughter, and seeing her like this...
Grandma Liang also felt bad.
Say you don't care—
She's gotten old after all.
Liang Yunan said softly, "She will not forgive me."
Grandma Liang said, "Forgive? You've done so much, how could she possibly forgive you? To her, you're a stranger. Just live out the rest of your life and don't expect anything else."
“Liang Xiu, your daughter has been imprisoned, and your son-in-law has been expelled from Peking University.”
Liang Xiu, who was huddled in the corner, trembled all over, her face instantly covered in tears, and her fingers clenched tightly into her palms.
Grandma Liang watched her reaction with satisfaction.
Then he turned and left.
Liang Yu quietly watched the direction her mother left in. Before she knew it, tears were streaming down her face. Her daughter would never acknowledge her again, nor would she ever call her "Mom" again. Those scenes from back then still echoed in her mind.
What exactly did she do?
She leaned against the wall and closed her eyes in anguish.
