Gu Siyu's heart tightened, thinking that she had said something wrong and made Su Yuemei angry!
"Grandma, what's wrong with you?"
Su Yuemei's frown suddenly relaxed. "It's okay. These grapes are so delicious! The more I eat them, the more I like them. I'll bring some back for your mother-in-law when I go back."
Gu Siyu really couldn't understand what Su Yuemei meant, so she could only smile awkwardly and nodded, "Yeah, okay."
Just then, Qin Haotian came over with his men, and both of them had their hands full of things.
"Okay, everything is ready. Do you need my help?"
Gu Siyu finally didn't have to chat with Su Yuemei about inexplicable things, and stood up happily and said, "No, I can make it in time by myself."
After turning on the portable gas stove, Gu Siyu added rock sugar and water in a ratio of two to one, then began to peel the grapes and string them into bunches with wooden sticks.
"Gulp, gulp!"
Gradually, the rock sugar in the pot turned into water and became more and more viscous, eventually turning into a sticky bubbly syrup.
Gu Siyu carefully tilted the pot, gathered the syrup to one side, then put bunches of grapes in and evenly coated them with syrup, and finally put them back on the tray to cool.
"Okay, wait until the syrup coating the grapes hardens and you can eat them!"
Su Yuemei saw Gu Siyu carrying the tray and placing it on the table in front of her. She smiled and praised, "Not bad! It looks like crystal, and it looks very appetizing!"
Gu Siyu scratched her head embarrassedly. "It's okay. If grandma likes it, I'll make other fruits next time."
Su Yuemei nodded and sighed again, "Haotian really found a good wife! She has better taste than your father! I can enjoy the happiness too!"
Gu Siyu always felt that her grandmother's words had hidden meaning, and quickly replied: "Grandma, this is what we young people should do. Please stop praising me. I feel embarrassed by your praise!"
Su Yuemei sighed, and fragments of the past flashed through her eyes.
"I never lie, I always seek truth from facts. Haotian's mother is good in every way, but her biggest flaw is that she's dumb and likes to pretend to be smart! The Zhou family was able to trick our Qin family back then because Haotian's mother lobbied for the Zhou family. Otherwise, Haotian wouldn't trust the Zhou family so much!"
"So, what's wrong with me asking her to visit her morning and night? I just want to temper her temper and make her behave smarter. It's a pity that after so many years, Haotian is still the same!"
Qin Haotian gently patted Su Yuemei's back and soothed her, "Grandma, it's all in the past. I will never give the Zhou family another chance! Mom is inevitably confused, so please don't argue with her anymore. It's hard for me to be caught in the middle."
Su Yuemei looked at her eldest grandson, whom she was most satisfied with, and felt both relieved and sad.
"I know, so when you were at home, I turned a blind eye. As long as you didn't go too far, I let her do whatever she wanted! But Siyu is a new daughter-in-law, so it's different. Siyu doesn't understand your mother's temper yet, and she can't always contradict her, so I can only be the bad guy!"
Qin Haotian nodded in understanding and said gratefully, "Thank you, grandma. Siyu and I will always be filial to you!"
Su Yuemei placed Qin Haotian's hand on the back of Gu Siyu's hand and said with a smile: "Give me a few more grandchildren, and I will be satisfied!"
Qin Haotian responded with a smile: "We will work hard!"
Gu Siyu said hesitantly, "Grandma, you might spoil my mood if I tell you this. I'm only halfway through my graduate studies, so having a baby will have to be put off until later."
Su Yuemei smiled from ear to ear, "Silly child! Why are you so honest? I just mentioned it. Old people tend to talk a lot, but I don't mean to rush you. As long as you are willing to have a baby, it's fine!"
Gu Siyu felt that she would not make any plans within the next ten years, because after graduating from graduate school, she wanted to study for a doctorate abroad for a few years and then start a business. She probably would not have time to have children.
"I understand. Thank you grandma for understanding!"
At this moment, in order to break the awkwardness, Qin Haotian picked up a string of candied haws and took a bite.
"The icing hasn't hardened yet, but it tastes pretty good! I'll put it in the freezer for a while, otherwise it won't harden in a short time."
Gu Siyu nodded and said, "That's fine."
Just then, a bodyguard in a suit with headphones in his ears ran in from outside.
"Boss Qin, here is a reply."
Qin Haotian quickly opened it and saw that it was sent by Gu Siyu’s grandmother!
"Grandma, Grandma Siyu wrote to me. She said it's better to do it today than tomorrow. Let's do it this afternoon. But we just brought you to the winery, it's not even a day yet. How about I call Grandma Siyu and discuss whether we can change it to tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?"
Su Yuemei quickly held Qin Haotian's hand and stopped him, saying, "Don't! Let's do what Grandma Siyu thinks! Let's get going quickly. We can come to the winery next time. This is our first meeting, so we can't offend others."
Qin Haotian thought so too. He should think more about Siyu when it comes to marriage and not make things difficult for her!
"Then let's go!"
The Rolls-Royce Phantom started from the winery, drove thirty kilometers, and finally stopped at the gate of the Lan family's old house.
Ouyang Muqing received the news when Gu Siyu set off and waited outside early.
"Oh! Old sister, we haven't seen each other for a long time!"
Su Yuemei excitedly shook Ouyang Muqing's hand and said, "That's right. The last time we met was at your brother's birthday party. It's been ten years since we last met! My dear sister, are you feeling well?"
Ouyang Muqing smiled and said, "Everything is fine! Come in and sit down! I've had lunch prepared. We have plenty of time this afternoon, so let's sit down and chat."
Su Yuemei quickly instructed the bodyguards to carry the gifts into the house, "Hurry up and take everything in my trunk."
Ouyang Muqing grabbed Su Yuemei's sleeve and said, "Just come, why bring any gifts? Haotian sent quite a few before, and when you sent someone to deliver the invitation this morning, they also brought quite a few things! You are so polite!"
Su Yuemei smiled and said, "My elder sister was also the most beautiful woman in the imperial capital back then. It is a blessing for my grandson to marry your granddaughter, so you deserve it!"
Ouyang Muqing was amused and laughed as she led the way inside.
"No way! Big sister is too modest. Back then, Big Brother Qin gave up all the famous ladies in the capital and went to Sujing to pursue you. How many girls' hearts were broken at that time! I think Haotian is just like his grandfather, both are infatuated and loyal. Our Siyu will be blessed in the future!"
Su Yuemei felt embarrassed. "Don't talk about the past. We are all gathered here for them today. We should talk more about them."
Ouyang Muqing smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Excuse me, elder sister, let's talk about marriage."
"Wait! We don't agree with Gu Siyu and Qin Haotian's marriage!"
The sudden sound interrupted the harmonious atmosphere in the restaurant, and everyone looked in the direction where the sound came from.
