Okay, here’s the next snippet:
Thinking of this, the pitiful self-esteem in Old Man Yu's heart was still playing tricks on him, making it harder than climbing to the sky for him to lower himself to ask a junior for help.
But the current situation is obvious. The one who is really in charge of the eldest house is not Zhou Fengxia, nor those grandsons who look promising, but the granddaughter who was the least favored in the past - Yu Bai!
Whether it was Zhou Fengxia, Yu Sheng, Yu Cheng and others, they all seemed to obey their daughter and sister.
He gritted his teeth, a trace of struggle flashed in his cloudy old eyes, and finally he said to Yu Dongshun who was looking expectant.
"Go...go call Xiaobai over."
When Yu Dongshun heard this, his eyes lit up!
It works! His father finally figured it out!
"Hey! Okay! Dad, wait for me!"
He responded decisively, as if afraid that Old Man Yu would go back on his word, and rushed towards the main hall.
At this moment, the main room feels more intimate and warm compared to the hustle and bustle outside.
Yu Baizheng greeted several special guests with a smile.
Her second brother Yu Xia’s girlfriend Song Yan, and Song Yan’s parents.
On this happy day, Yu Xia drove her newly bought car to pick up her future father-in-law and mother-in-law from the county town.
Firstly, it is lively, and secondly, it is to show off to the family and let them see the current situation of the Yu family.
Song Yan's parents are both reasonable intellectuals. Before coming, they had heard their daughter Song Yan mention the complicated situation in Yu Xia's family.
Especially regarding the previous biased and mean things done by Old Man Yu and Wang Guifen, he had already known about it, so naturally he couldn't like the old couple.
What they admire more is Zhou Fengxia's tenacity and the success of the Yu family's children.
Yu Dongshun approached Yu Bai with a smile on his face and whispered a few words.
When Yu Bai heard this, his cold eyes flashed, then he nodded and followed him out.
Seeing this, Song Yan frowned slightly and wanted to stand up with some worry: "Xiaobai..."
She had heard Yu Xia talk about how his grandparents and his uncle's family had bullied Xiaobai and the others in the past, and she was afraid that Yu Bai would be wronged in the past.
A warm hand gently pulled her, it was Zhou Fengxia.
Zhou Fengxia smiled at her soothingly, her voice soft but firm.
"It's okay, Yanyan, sit down and eat. Xiaobai knows what's going on. She can't afford to lose."
What Zhou Fengxia said was absolutely right.
Now, Old Man Yu is really scared when he meets Yu Bai.
Ever since the last incident, the couple hadn't slept well at night, always feeling that the girl had an evil nature.
At this moment, Yu Bai walked slowly towards Yu Dongshun, with no expression on his face and his eyes calm.
Old man Yu's original anger of taking advantage of his seniority had somehow weakened a bit, and even his righteous desire to ask for an explanation had become somewhat lacking in confidence.
Yu Bai walked to the table and glanced at Old Man Yu and Wang Guifen lightly. Without waiting for them to gather their emotions and speak, he showed a smile of concern that a junior should have, but with a bit of alienation.
"Grandpa, Grandma, are you all right? Are the dishes at today's banquet to your liking?"
Her voice was gentle, as if all the previous unpleasantness had never happened, but her politeness did not make people feel any closeness.
Before the two elders could taste the food, she suddenly seemed to remember something and added briskly, her voice neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for the villagers at the nearby tables to hear clearly:
"By the way, Grandpa and Grandma, I've already asked someone to do what I told you two earlier."
"I'll contact the construction team in our village and have them design a few houses. You two can pick one that you like."
"Once it's confirmed, we'll start construction and ensure that you and grandma can live in a spacious and bright new house before winter!"
