Passing through the familiar carved iron gate in front of her, Old Lady Lan slowly looked into the yard.
Everything I see before my eyes seems to be frozen in the past.
In the courtyard, carefully trimmed flowers and plants were scattered in every corner. A gentle breeze blew, carrying the scent of jasmine that she loved. The stone bench where she used to sit was still quietly placed under the sycamore tree, as if she had just slept for the past few decades, and when she woke up again, everything was still the same.
Her star is still alive, and her son and several adopted sons are still full of energy. Some are studying, some are practicing martial arts, and those who are handling accounts in the accounting office are still busy using the abacus.
Ah Cai trotted forward, tears in his eyes.
"Madam, it's really you! I am so... so... so..." He was so excited that he couldn't speak for a moment. He simply knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Acai kowtows to you!"
Looking at the white hair on Ah Cai's temples, Old Lady Lan seemed to have just returned to reality from the past. She bent down to help him up, "You kid! Times have changed now. Don't do this again!"
Ah Cai burst into tears. "Ah Cai knows. I'm just so... so excited to see you again, Madam! Besides, in my heart, Madam is just like my mother! She fully deserves this respect from an elder. Ah Cai welcomes Madam home on behalf of everyone!"
Then he kowtowed again!
The servants in the courtyard stood in an orderly manner on both sides of the road, and there seemed to be at least twenty or thirty of them.
Everyone clasped their hands in front of them and, led by Ah Cai, bowed in unison.
"Welcome home, Madam, Young Master, Young Miss, and Young Master!"
"Welcome home, Madam, Young Master, Young Miss, and Young Master!"
“…”
Old Madam Lan suddenly realized something again! It was as if she had returned to the day when she married into the Lan Mansion.
The servants in the house were also waiting at the gate, cheering loudly to welcome her arrival.
Qinghe's eyes couldn't help but turn red!
If there is anything in this Hai City that is worthy of her attachment, it is only the Lan Mansion!
She grew up here from the age of five to fifteen! Although her identity at that time was just a servant girl.
But compared to what her cruel parents had brought her, those days were like heaven! It was also the most relaxed and happiest time in her first half of life.
Tang's mother had never seen such a scene in her life!
From the moment she got off the car, she felt as if her legs, feet, and facial features were not her own!
Everything in front of me seems like a dream!
This house is so big and beautiful, isn’t it?!
Although Jinyuan is not small in size, it is still quite impressive compared to the villas and small buildings, as well as the endless lawns and gardens around it!
And these people in front of me, they are wearing neat and uniform clothes, doing standard and uniform movements, everyone is respectful and polite, and their attitude is humble!
Even among the big landlords in the surrounding area, she had never seen such a scene!
The road, the houses, even the flowers, the grass, the bricks, and the tiles before her seemed to be even more noble than she was! She didn't even dare to look at them for a second!
It was not until this moment that she seemed to truly realize how wealthy the Lan family was back then!
Xiaolie and Xiaonuan couldn't wait to run into the yard.
"Brother, do you think this place is familiar? Look at this house and the lawn behind it. If we planted radishes and herbs, wouldn't it be... um~"
Before the little girl could finish her words, Xiao Lie covered her mouth.
Xiao Lie raised his little face with a savior expression, "Sister, thank your second brother quickly! If it weren't for my quick reaction, you would have almost leaked the secret and become a traitor!"
Of course he also noticed that this place was very similar to his mother's space!
But he remembered what his mother said, that it was a secret between the three of them and his mother, and it could not be discussed casually outside.
Xiao Nuan's face was distorted by his covering. She shook her head to break free from him, pouting her lips with a look of dissatisfaction!
"I didn't say anything, but you, second brother, were so shocked and surprised that you almost had the words 'Here comes the dark side' written all over your forehead!"
Xiao Lie scratched his head! He had heard this story from his elder brother before!
But he didn't say anything sarcastic. This place doesn't look like Mom's space! It shouldn't leak secrets, right?
His small black eyeballs rolled around, and when he saw that there was no one around him and his sister, he patted his chest in relief, caught up with his sister, and ran to the lawn behind.
Over there, the Third Master had already led them into the villa.
"Godmother, your room is still the same one on the second floor." He looked at Lan Guoer, "You and the children's rooms are on the third floor. Aunt Tang's room is next to Godmother. Go up and see if you like it. If not, we can change it!"
"No need to look, the third floor is great! I like it!" Lan Guoer was very satisfied with this arrangement!
Accustomed to the Chinese style of carved beams and painted pillars, Tang's mother was so busy that she didn't know where to look after suddenly moving into this European-style villa!
Like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, she touched here, looked there, and made “tsk tsk” sounds all the time.
"How come the floor is so shiny? Won't it be slippery when I step on it?"
"This sofa is so soft! It's even springy! How did you make it?"
"Oh my! Isn't this light too big and bright? Tsk, tsk, tsk! My God, this house is amazing! How much did it cost?"
Lan Guoer would reply with a sentence or two from time to time, letting her express her feelings one by one!
She actually likes Tang's mother's spirit of being curious about everything and finding everything new!
It looks very energetic and lively!
"Guo'er, come with me!"
After settling everyone down, he saw Old Madam Lan, Mother Tang, and Qinghe chatting and laughing in the living room. The Third Master asked Lan Guoer to go to the study on the second floor.
In the study.
The third master opened the safe, took out a mahogany box from it, and pushed it in front of Lan Guoer.
"I opened the safe abroad! Inside are the Lan family's overseas shares, real estate, and some jewelry.
I have transferred the shares and real estate to your name, and the jewelry is still in the safe over there.
As for this..." The Third Master's eyes darkened, his expression solemn.
"If my guess is correct, this might be the greatest treasure left behind by the old man of the Lan family. It could be the greatest treasure that will allow the Lan family to make a comeback!"
