"You! You should trust your husband."
After the old man said this, he frowned and took a sip of tea, and the marbles in his hand spun much faster.
The old man would not force Yuan Ziyu to decide whether he still loved his ex, but his requirement was that Yuan Ziyu must not have any contact with his ex.
The dignity of the Yuan family does not allow such a thing to happen.
Furthermore, he didn't like the delicate Meng Qi, who always acted like a spoiled brat in front of men. How could such a woman be the mistress of the house
Bai Chen didn't seem to be comforted by the old man's words, and seemed particularly conflicted. "Grandpa, thank you!" As he spoke, two tears welled up in his eyes. "Why are you so good to me? In the entire Yuan family, Grandpa is the only one who treats me the best!"
When the old man knew that the generation of family head he trained was such a despicable person, he would definitely be heartbroken.
Bai Chen actually didn't have the heart to hurt an old man in poor health.
But the key to the whole story is this old man, so the thing that brought shame to the Yuan family had to be made known to the old man in the end, and even to the entire South City population.
The old man felt uncomfortable with his granddaughter-in-law's tears, "Silly child, why are you still crying
You are the eldest lady of the Yuan family and the future mistress of the household, so of course grandpa has to treat you well.
The future of the Yuan family will depend on you to help Tzuyu take care of it."
Bai Chen rubbed his eyes and said, "Yes, Grandpa."
It seems that the old man has no intention of passing the position of head of the family to the second branch.
The Yuan family is a large feudal family. Behind closed doors, the Yuan family is a small society with a strict feudal hierarchy.
The title of the head of the Yuan family is like a title of nobility. The right of inheritance is based on seniority and the rules cannot be violated.
Unless the eldest son is extremely disappointing or dies, the second or third son will be considered.
As for the mistress of the house, that is, the wife of the head of the household, who will be the future housekeeper, she must be even more careful when choosing.
The importance of the mistress of a large family is second only to the head of the family.
Bai Chen never figured out why the old man had a special liking for Qiao Yin.
Even Yuan Ziyu didn't understand this.
Therefore, he thought that Qiao Yin must have used some tricks to make his grandfather make such a weird request.
Yuan Ziyu has always hated Qiao Yiran in his heart, ever since his grandfather asked him to marry her.
At first he could still pretend and act like he liked it.
But when his true love came back, he couldn't pretend anymore.
Bai Chen is not a person who likes to beat around the bush. Besides, if he were to ask questions to an old hand, he might be suspicious.
So, Bai Chen simply told the truth and asked the questions in his mind.
"Grandpa, I just want to ask you, why would the Yuan family marry a daughter-in-law who is not of the same social status as the head of the Yuan family
Why not marry a rich girl
In fact, I lived a very depressed life in the Yuan family. They didn’t like me. When my uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters saw me, sometimes they didn’t even say hello and looked down on me.
My father and mother also treated me coldly, and even some servants were disrespectful to me.
But grandpa, you are so good to me.
Grandpa, why is this happening?"
"Haha!" After listening carefully, the old man was not angry, but laughed, "Child, don't be too burdened.
In terms of birth, how many of those wealthy and powerful families had respectable status if we count back three generations
The children of the Yuan family are just enjoying the wealth created by their ancestors.
What qualifications do they have to look down on others
My grandfather’s greatest wish is that they can keep the Yuan family’s existing wealth.
What grandpa values is a person’s character and ability, not whether she was born into a wealthy family.
Child, don't think too much, just be a daughter-in-law of the Yuan family peacefully."
The old man seemed extremely patient and instructive, and his eyes, which had originally been somewhat cloudy, now brightened a little.
I heard that the old man always said what he meant and he was the local emperor of the Yuan family. Even Yuan Ziyu was actually very afraid of him and was in awe of him.
His words were orders, and no one dared to disobey them. It was even more rare for him to speak softly and gently to his juniors.
It is even rarer to speak to a younger person in this tone.
"Yes, grandpa, I was just imagining things." Bai Chen humbly admitted his mistake to the old man, then stood up and said goodbye to the old man without saying anything more.
I originally wanted to find out what the relationship between Qiao Yiran and the old man was, but if the old man didn't tell me, I really had no way of finding out.
Or maybe there is no connection at all.
Maybe it was just that the old man, with his experienced vision, saw the shining points in Qiao Yiran, so he wanted his eldest grandson to marry her.
Or maybe, Qiao Yiran has the look of a lucky woman, so he wants Yuan Ziyu to marry her.
The old man seemed a little hesitant when he looked at Bai Chen's departing back.
When Bai Chen walked to the garden gate, the old man chased out of the villa.
"Child, is your grandmother in good health now?"
"Ah!" Bai Chen was very surprised!
Something is happening! Why does the old man know Qiao Yiran's grandmother
Come to think of it, they have absolutely no connection at all.
Qiao Yiran's grandmother is now 72 years old and loves Qiao Yiran very much.
After Qiao Yiran's mother and her father divorced a long time ago, her mother took Qiao Yiran back to her grandmother.
Grandma felt sorry for Qiao Yiran who had not received fatherly love since childhood, so she loved her like a treasure.
My grandmother is already very old, and she still has to take care of her daughter who is extremely sad because of her unhappy marriage, and her young granddaughter.
At that time, the family's livelihood depended on my grandmother's handicrafts.
Grandma is a strong woman. No matter how difficult life is, she can handle it easily. However, her adopted daughter, Qiao Yiran's mother, always looks sad and depressed.
In the mother's world, without a man, her own world would collapse and she would not be able to survive independently.
So, she took her daughter back to rely on her elderly grandmother, and then she continued to be sad and depressed.
The grandmother loved her daughter and her granddaughter even more, so she accepted her married daughter without hesitation.
Who said she only has one daughter
Because her husband died early, she was left alone as a widow, and it was just right for her daughter and granddaughter to come and keep her company.
Qiao is still very competitive. She has been an excellent student since childhood, and is filial and hardworking. Her grandmother is very pleased to have such a granddaughter around her.
It wasn't until Qiao Yinyan grew up and started working that grandma felt a little relieved.
After Qiao Yiran started working, she would give all her salary to her grandmother, but her grandmother would not spend a penny of it. She said that it was Qiao Yiran's dowry.
Qiao Yiran suddenly got married to a rich young man. Originally, she thought her grandmother would be very happy, but unexpectedly, Qiao Yiran saw her grandmother lose her temper for the first time.
She blamed Qiao Yiran for being too hasty, saying that being a wealthy wife was not easy, so why didn't she come back to inform them before getting the marriage certificate directly
Everyone envied Qiao Yin for marrying into a wealthy family, but only her grandmother looked worried and distressed.
