Rong Qian was the first to go out to meet them, but Old Master Li stopped her and said, "Rong Qian, stop right there."

"Grandpa, Bai Shu and the others are here." Rong Qian turned around and looked at him, feeling a little aggrieved.

"Come back, the housekeeper and the servants will pick you up." Mr. Li said as he motioned Rong Qian to come back and sit in the living room, and asked An Yan and Li Rongsen to come in as well.

At this time, Mrs. Li was instructing the servants to bring out the dessert after dinner.

Mr. Li said to her, "You also sit down and wait for your future son-in-law and mother-in-law to come in."

Bai Shu's mother was a little dissatisfied at first. She found that her future daughter-in-law was not waiting for her at the door, which was really rude. But then she found that the car drove into an iron gate.

The housekeeper stepped forward to stop the car and said to Bai Shu, "Mr. Bai, please park the car at the door. The master, the lady and the young ladies are all waiting inside."

"What a big deal." Bai's mother couldn't help but sneer, thinking that he really didn't come out to pick her up. After she got out of the car, she saw how big Mr. Li's garden was, and there were more than ten servants waiting for them in front.

The steward stood in front and said, "Come with me."

Bai's mother grew up in the countryside. After she went to Bai Shu's house, she thought her son's house was the biggest. But when she came here, she realized there was an even bigger one.

This was also Bai Shu's first time coming to where Grandpa Li lived. It was simply a garden on earth.

Bai Shu and his mother walked in together. There were two servants waiting at the door, and they bowed slightly to them.

Bai's mother was already feeling a little uneasy. After all, she didn't understand the rules here and was afraid of being laughed at. She walked in with Bai Shu and first saw a majestic old man who was obviously the head of a wealthy family.

"Please sit down. Mrs. Bai, please sit down." Mrs. Li spoke to them gently.

Bai's mother sat down properly and said, "I came here today for my son."

"Rong Qian is the apple of our Li family's eye. We heard that she has someone she likes, so we all want to see who it is. He is indeed a handsome man." Old Master Li began to speak politely.

"That's right. My son is good at everything. He was praised by everyone when he was in the village and has always been a role model for others to learn from. Now he is the top leader in his workplace. Naturally, not everyone can be worthy of him." Whenever Bai's mother mentioned her son, she would talk nonstop.

Mrs. Li just listened with a smile and said nothing.

Bai's mother added, "My son will have these good things sooner or later, so we just want to find a daughter-in-law who is obedient and pleasing to him."

Old Master Li just smiled and looked at Rong Qian.

Listen to Bai Shu: "I really want to be good to Rong Qian. I believe he is the right person."

"Does your mother know what you mean?" Old Master Li looked at Bai's mother.

Bai's mother's face immediately darkened. She said, "As a daughter-in-law of our Bai family, first of all, you have to stay at home and do the housework well. You have to listen to your husband and mother-in-law in everything. Secondly, you can't go back to your parents' home often. A daughter who is married off is like water spilled out. Naturally, she belongs to her husband's family. Thirdly, she has to have a spirit of sacrifice, give in in everything, and put herself last."

Rong Qian's face turned pale and blue. She was really annoyed by this kind of thought. She was about to retort, but was stopped by Mrs. Li, who signaled her not to speak.

Li Rongsen had long known that Bai Shu's mother was this kind of person.

Looking at Bai Shu, he was also shocked. He did not expect his mother to speak so bluntly. He quickly said, "These are all old ideas. Women can also have their own careers. There is no need to stay at home all the time."

"What are you talking about? This is how I, your mother, came through." Bai's mother was very unhappy that he didn't help her.

"Your era has passed. There is no need to do this now." Bai Shu insisted.

Bai's mother got even angrier when she heard this. She said, "Why? You haven't even married her yet and you're already contradicting me. What will happen if you marry her? If you continue to persuade her, you'll be abusing an old woman."

"Mrs. Bai, what you said is too serious." Mrs. Li said to Bai's mother in a calm tone.

An Yan felt that Li Rongsen was far-sighted. He had guessed that this would happen a long time ago. Looking at Old Man Li, he seemed calm and composed, not angry or annoyed, and still looked calm and composed.

Bai's mother was already furious. She lowered her eyes and saw that the food on the table was very delicate. Every bowl and spoon was something she had never seen before. But she was proud in her bones. She couldn't let her future daughter-in-law put her down, otherwise her life would not be easy. So she couldn't admit defeat. She saw An Yan who had been silent all the time, so she thought she was easy to talk to, and pointed at her and said, "This woman looks well-behaved. She should be a servant."

Li Rongsen was furious, but An Yan agreed and said, "What's the matter?"

"This kind of woman is very good. When the elders sit here and talk, she just stands there and listens. She doesn't even dare to move her facial expression. This is how a daughter-in-law should be." Bai's mother did this on purpose.

An Yan frowned, thinking that this old woman was really annoying, saying that Rong Qian was worse than a servant. She walked to the table and picked up two steel forks from it, and bent them easily while saying to Bai's mother, "I have a bad temper, but fortunately I'm strong, so I feel better this way." After she finished speaking, she threw the completely bent fork in front of Bai's mother.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

One of them slipped off the table and fell at her feet.

Bai's mother was shocked and sneered, "How uneducated."

"Mom, you're going too far. She's not a servant, she's a guest of the Li family." Bai Shu was extremely depressed. No wonder his sister refused to come with him. It seemed that she had known that she was going to make a fool of herself.

Bai's mother knew she had embarrassed herself, but she could not admit her mistake. Instead, she became more and more aggressive, and her voice became louder unconsciously. She scolded him: "You bullied your old mother like this for a woman today. I can't imagine what will happen in the future. It seems that this woman has been saying bad things about me to you."

"Of course I didn't. This is only the second time we've met." Rong Qian was a little anxious, so she interrupted.

This gave Bai's mother an excuse to catch her by the pigtails. She said, "Look, you've already learned to talk back. What will happen in the future? Will you beat me again?"

"Mom, what's wrong with you? You're so tactless in your words."

"What? Are you going to help outsiders to teach me a lesson now?" Bai's mother felt ashamed. Her own son was unwilling to help her, especially in front of outsiders. How could she establish her authority in the future? She was about to burst into tears.

"Oh, Mrs. Bai, don't be like this." Mrs. Li was really troubled. She thought that Rong Qian's life would not be easy in the future. She was a woman who could not be reasoned with.

Li Rongsen just looked at Bai Shu, and then glanced at Rong Qian's face.

Rong Qian was also a little angry, but not at Bai Shu.

An Yan felt that this marriage was a bit difficult. Who would want to have such a mother-in-law?

Mr. Li suddenly spoke up and said, "Mrs. Bai, why do you have to worry about these things? After you get married, you won't live together, so there won't necessarily be so many conflicts."

This made Bai's mother stunned. She seemed a little confused and asked Mr. Li: "What do you mean by not living together?"
