Chapter 71

Gu Xinling followed Mo Chengde to discuss some topics on the tea ceremony. Although Mo Chengde did not praise Gu Xinling in an exaggerated way, he admired Gu Xinling even more. He also hoped that his son could be with Gu Xinling. He liked this kind of thoughtful new woman, rather than a daughter who only had family background but no cultural thoughts.

Moreover, Mo Chengde seemed to see the shadow of his confidante Ye Jinxi when he was young, independent, self-reliant, and thoughtful. He felt that Gu Xinling was the most suitable for his son. However, Mo Chengde was afraid that Gu Xinling would take Ye Jinxi's celibacy path and would make his son hurt for the rest of his life.

"Dad, mom, I'll take Xinling to see my grandmother now! Grandma has been thinking about it!" Mo Anlin said, then picked up Gu Shaoyang, who was sitting on the sofa and eating snacks, "Let's go, Xiaoyang! Let's go and play with grandma!"

Gu Xinling also stood up with Mo Anlin, "Uncle Mo, Mrs. Mo, I'll go see Mrs. Lin, I'll lose my companion first."

Mo Anlin took Gu Xinling to Mrs. Lin's residence. Mrs. Lin was in the Buddhist temple at this time, "Blessings, Bodhisattva! I hope Lin'er can get married as soon as possible. He is twenty-four years old, and he will get old if he doesn't get married."

"Grandma, what are you talking nonsense?" Mo Anlin was speechless and directly interrupted Mrs. Lin, "I am only twenty-four years old, where am I old? I am a good time in my youth!"

"Why are twenty-four not old?" Mrs. Lin frowned, "There are twenty-four children who can run all over the room."

With the help of the maid, Mrs. Lin turned around. She saw Gu Xinling standing in front of her. Her eyes, which had just come back to light up, instantly, "This... is my granddaughter-in-law, right?"

"Grandma, it will definitely be the case in the future!" Mo Anlin smiled.

Although Gu Xinling felt embarrassed, she still shouted, "Grandma, how are your eyes now?"

"Okay! Very good. Finally, I saw that I could walk, even if no one was supporting me, I could eat and do whatever I wanted." Old Mrs. Lin was excited in her tone, "But, when I saw my grandson yesterday, I was anxious. Before blindness, he was still half-aged, but now he is a little mature. I hope he gets married soon!"

As Mrs. Lin spoke, she kept holding Gu Xinling's hand and looked up and down, "Lin'er has a good eye. The girl she likes is so beautiful. She has cured my eyes and I'm waiting for you to drink your wedding."

"I'll wait too!" Gu Shaoyang suddenly spoke.

"Oh, who is this little guy? He is so cute." Old Lady Lin touched Gu Shaoyang's little head, "I guess, this must be the young master of the Gu family, right?"

"Yes!" Gu Shaoyang tilted his head, "My name is Gu Shaoyang, you can call me Xiaoyang. What should I call you?"

"You, call me grandma too!" Old Mrs. Lin smiled, "Come on, Xiaoyang, come with grandma, grandma bring you something delicious."

Gu Xinling glared at Mo Anlin and whispered: "Why don't you explain it to your grandma?"

"You can please make grandma happy!" Mo Anlin deliberately pretended to be pitiful, and he blinked at Gu Xinling, "Besides, you will marry me sooner or later, I have this confidence."

"Arrogant maniac!" Gu Xinling muttered.

Mrs. Lin likes Gu Shaoyang in particular and takes out all the desserts and fruits she can have in her room.

"Lin'er! Look at how likable this child is! If you get married at the age of 18, you're probably four or five years old. Now my grandmother can only tease other children, so you should hurry up!" Mrs. Lin started nagging again.

Mo Anlin was embarrassed, "Grandma, haven't I met someone I like before? Besides, my elder brother will get married next month."

"That's different. Your elder brother was born by Zhao, not my grandson. You are the only one of my grandsons. I hope you get married as soon as possible and let me hold my great-grandson as soon as possible." When Mrs. Lin spoke, she kept looking at Gu Shaoyang, with her eyes full of doting, and she also hoped that she could have such a little guy accompany her every day and call her grandmother.

"I also want my elder sister to marry Brother Lin." Gu Shaoyang interrupted with a silence, "Brother Lin is handsome and has bought me a room of toys. I like him."

"Yes! Look at this child, he speaks so hard!" Mrs. Lin smiled.

"Okay! Since it's a blessing for everyone to marry the Gu family, I will continue to work hard to get married to Asahi." Mo Anlin said, looking at Gu Xinling with a smile, "Xinling, I will work harder to chase you. Moreover, I have a secret now."

"Ah? Secret Book?" Gu Xinling was stunned.

"The last time I was interviewed by a reporter, I asked them to collect ways to pursue women in the newspaper. Now several major newspapers have sorted out letters from readers. That's simply a secret!" Mo Anlin smiled, "You are mine, you can't escape."

Gu Xinling felt that this topic was too embarrassing and could only change the topic, "Grandma, let me look at your eyes!"

Gu Xinling really wanted to check Mrs. Lin's eyes. After all, it was handed over to Ye Luochen after the operation, and she should have a look at it by herself.

At the same time, the invited guests have arrived one after another, and the Gu family also came. The old lady, Gu Yiming, Shen and Gu Xinru came in a rickshaw at home, while Gu Xinrui and Aunt Su could only ride in a carriage. As for Gu Shaojun, he never participated in such activities.

Gu Xinrui muttered to Aunt Su on the carriage, "Aunt Su, look, you have already taken over the family. You are all arranged to arrange the rickshaws, but you didn't get it yourself, so you can only ride the carriage with me. I'm not worth it for you! I'm worried every day, but I don't pay attention to it at critical moments."

Aunt Su was already unhappy, and when Gu Xinrui said this, she felt even more unhappy. "Hmph, then Shen is just shameless. Her father just died and has not been buried yet! She is so embarrassed to attend Mrs. Mo's birthday party, and she is dressed up in a gorgeous manner."

"Aunt Su, we can only endure it. Who made our second lady the fiancée of Master Mo?" Gu Xinrui sighed, "But, this person who died was second sister's grandfather. She could still go to the banquet with joy, which is really..."

Gu Xinrui did not finish her words on purpose, and Aunt Su said it directly, "She is just shameless and has the same virtue as her mother!"

Gu Xinrui was actually urging Aunt Su to make trouble. She didn't dare to talk nonsense by herself, but she would mutter behind her back. She had already let Gu Xinru destroy Gu Xinling's clothes, and now she wanted Aunt Su to take advantage of the Shen family's funeral to go to the banquet to say a few bad things about Shen and Gu Xinru. And she always wants to be the most gentle, kind and conscious third lady in the Gu family.

Today, Gu Xinru also wore her most beautiful lilac dress, and she wore jewelry that she wouldn't want to wear on weekdays. She hoped that Gu Xinru and Gu Xinling would both be ugly to highlight her dignity and virtuousness.

Gu Yiming and his group arrived first, and waited in the alley for a while. Gu Xinrui and Aunt Su were a family. After all, they were only one invitation and could not leave separately.

Gu Xinru looked impatient, "We just went to the Mo family banquet. I don't know why Aunt Su and Gu Xinrui had to come with me. Even though I knew that the rickshaw could not get on, the speed of the carriage was slow. It was really nothing to ask for trouble! We still had to wait!"

Mrs. Gu felt uncomfortable when she heard this. After all, Gu Xinrui has been growing up by her side. Although she didn't like her, she knew that Gu Xinrui was from her side. She was not happy with Gu Xinru saying this, so she simply retorted, "Xinling and Shaoshuai Mo came to pick her up and Xiaoyang in person. We were planning that you and Young Master Mo were engaged, and Young Master Mo would definitely come to pick you up and your mother. If you two were also picked up, the car would be enough for the seats."

"Mo Anlin doesn't understand the rules!" Gu Xinru said dissatisfied, but she was still very unhappy.

"What kind of rules are not ruled? If you can be taken away by Young Marshal Mo, it will be a great face." Mrs. Gu said deliberately, "In the future, the Gu family will count on Xinling."

"Gu Xinling is not engaged yet! Besides, Mo Anlin is a martial artist. He doesn't know how to help at home during such a busy life. Brother Cheng must be more sensible than him. He knows that he is busy receiving guests instead of just having a relationship with his children. This is the behavior that a person who does big things should have." Gu Xinru is finding a way for herself! Mo Anlin took Gu Xinling away, but Mo Ancheng did not come to pick up her legitimate fiancée, which really felt a slap in the face.

Soon, the Mo family gathered together. They held invitations and gifts, all with smiles, and their smiles were a little flattering. In contrast, Gu Xinrui, the white lotus, stood out among the crowd.

The Gu family is the Mo family's in-laws, so they are naturally greeted warmly by the servants and maids of the Mo family. Gu Yiming went to the front hall to greet some people in the officialdom, while Mrs. Gu and Shen took Gu Xinru and Gu Xinrui to Mrs. Mo's side and were with some wives and ladies.

Gu Xinru couldn't be more excited. This was the first time she had come to the Mo family. Even if she met Mo Ancheng before, Mo Ancheng did not dare to bring her home. The grandeur of the Mo family also made her look forward to marrying soon.

As the Mo family's prospective wife, Gu Xinru naturally cannot rely on giving gifts at home, just like Gu Xinrui and Aunt Su, so she doesn't have to prepare it herself. She specially prepared a set of good jade jewelry.

"Madam Mo, this is your birthday. Xinru wishes you a blessing like the East China Sea and a long life than the South Mountain. I am a little careful and I don't respect you. Please accept it with a smile!" Gu Xinru gave the gift flatteringly.

However, Mrs. Mo was busy greeting the guests, and just nodded to Gu Xinru, who was giving gifts, and asked the maid to accept the gift.

Gu Xinru gave her precious jade, but was left aside, and she felt that she couldn't bear to worry about her face. But Shen was afraid that her daughter would not be able to control her temper, so she hurriedly held her hand, "Xinru, Mrs. Mo is busy, don't cause trouble."

When Aunt Zhao saw this scene, she said to Mo Ancheng who happened to come over: "Look at the woman you choose, you only know how to curry favor with Mrs. She doesn't have me in her eyes. I am your biological mother-in-law, and she is her real mother-in-law. After so long entering the house, I haven't seen her come to ask me for peace."

Gu Xinru originally thought that she had not succeeded in pleasing Mrs. Mo, but she didn't know that she had invisibly made Aunt Zhao and Mo Ancheng unhappy.

"I'll call her over." Mo Ancheng said, and then he looked dark and wanted to drag Gu Xinru.

Aunt Zhao stopped Mo Ancheng, "Don't worry about her, I want to see. If no one reminds her, when will she remember me!"
