The old lady was leveraging her age and acting like she couldn’t move.
Xiao Jianming personally ca to carry the old lady on his back.
Zhan Dapeng had to get out of the car to help.
At this mont, Uncle Tang heard the commotion inside the house and ca to the door to watch. Seeing the old lady return, he was even more surprised and hurried up to help, asking in shock, "What’s going on?"
What? Could it be that Gu Nuan brought the old lady back?
Upon hearing Uncle Tang’s voice, the old lady opened her mouth and asked, "Where is the chairman?"
"The chairman is resting in his room." Uncle Tang found it difficult to explain to the elderly. Should he say Xiao Jianming was being unfilial, staying in his room, ignoring the old lady’s life or death?
Logically, a dutiful son should crawl over to save his elderly mother even if he were dying.
The old lady was surprised to hear that her son was at ho but did not co out to greet her.
Upon thinking further, the old lady didn’t utter any words of reproach.
Gu Nuan could then imagine that this mother and son must have gone through unimaginable things over the years to reach such a tacit understanding.
Everyone moved the old lady inside. Naturally, her room was arranged next to Xiao Jianming’s room.
After learning of Gu Nuan’s arrangent, the old lady suddenly felt restless in her room.
To say the least, she wasn’t a malicious old lady, just selfish, always wanting her well-being and her descendants’ prosperity, unconcerned with the lives and deaths of others or their children.
But now it seed she might have gone a bit too far.
Regarding this, the old lady sighed at Xiao Jianming and Uncle Tang standing before her, saying, "Actually, back then, I opened the door for her. At that ti, if she had returned ho with Yebai to raise the child, what else could I have said to her?"
Hearing her words, Xiao Jianming understood that the old lady was trying to find a way to save face, so he smiled without saying anything.
But Uncle Tang seed unable to accept this, saying, "As the old lady ntioned, she could have stopped all this from happening, but she didn’t."
The old lady knew well what had happened. Indeed, it was her little scheming that had worried her son and grandson.
"How is the chairman doing now?" The old lady changed the subject.
Uncle Tang found it strange that she didn’t follow up on his words.
What? Could it be that she’s planning to accept Gu Nuan?
The old lady noticed the look Uncle Tang shot at her. Knowing it would soon beco public, she said, "I’ve given the Xiao family’s heirloom to her."
What?! Uncle Tang was shocked, stepping forward in a hurry: "Old lady, does the chairman know about this?"
The old lady gave him a sidelong glance: "What, can’t I decide on this matter?" At this point, the old lady rembered needing to inform the other family mbers and asked, "Where’s the Second Miss?"
When she had just entered the house, besides her son being ill and resting, if the other granddaughters were present, they surely wouldn’t forget the etiquette of coming out to greet their grandmother ho, right?
It seed the old lady was entirely unaware of many events that happened during the period she was tied up.
The old lady blinked in doubt. Could it be that after Gu Nuan arrived at the Xiao family, she made up her mind, driving her granddaughters out?
That was surely impossible.
Xiao Jianming explained to the old lady, "The Third Miss had sothing to attend to and went out today. Speaking of which, it was the Third Miss who personally invited the young madam back to our Xiao family."
