Jiang Zishu sat opposite to her and the old lady pushed a cup of tea towards her, saying, "Zi Shu, how long have you been married into the Gu family?"
"More than thirty years."
"It's been over 30 years. Zi Shu, you've been married for so many years. Have I ever felt sorry for you?"
After marrying for so many years, the old lady had never treated him as her own daughter and doted on him. Even if Zhao Yumin and Zheng Qiuyu were to quarrel at home, the old lady would not scold him in front of him. She had only warned him in private.
Although he was also Lo Lishu's mother-in-law, he had embarrassed her in front of the Gu family members and hadn't given her any face at all.
Seeing that she did not say anything, Old Lady Gu knew her intentions.
"I know that you don't really like this child Lo Lishu, and I wasn't satisfied with his at the start either. She had a child even before marriage with Huaisheng, and when I didn't see her, I also felt that her character wouldn't be good."
"If it wasn't for this great-grandson, I wouldn't allow such a granddaughter-in-law to enter no matter what. But later on, I discovered that although this child doesn't have any background, his ways of doing things aren't bad."
"Look at Ruo Xue's matter, you should be clear about the truth of Ruo Xue's fall into the water. This child has been wrongly accused for so many years, yet she didn't say anything and instead went to accompany you everyday, afraid that you would feel sad. Yet, you didn't even see her, and she still persevered on."
"Just this point? Which famous lady would be able to do that? These great young masters and mistresses, how could they not be delicate and charming?" I also know that you're in pain because of Ruo Xue. I understand that you're upset because of what happened to Ruo Xue, but I can't stand watching you vent your anger on Li Shu. There's only three days until their wedding.
"Zi Shu, Li Shu is your daughter-in-law from now on. Although I can't say anything about you protecting Ruo Xue, I can't let Li Shu suffer too much, right?"
The Old Lady Gu sighed, "Think about it carefully, I called you here today to reason with you, and if you don't listen, then pretend that I didn't say anything. If Huaisheng blames you in the future, don't say that I didn't advise you."
Jiang Zishu held the teacup tightly, her eyes did not even blink, it was extremely astringent.
If not for the old lady mentioning Gu Huaisheng, he would have forgotten about it already.
He only wanted to let Lo Lishu see if his family members could see what Ruo Xue was doing, no matter what she did, she would have this mother protecting him, so no one could bully her.
But Lo Lishu was Huaisheng's wife, so wouldn't doing this cause Gu Huaisheng to feel embarrassed?
Since she was Huaisheng's wife, he shouldn't have done this.
The hand holding the teacup slowly loosened. Old Lady Gu stood up at this moment and took out a list from her drawer, placing it on the table.
"Here is the guest list for the wedding day. You are in charge of receiving them, so it can be considered as helping them with the wedding."
"OK Mom." Jiang Zishu took the list, her voice hoarse.
is also the granddaughter I love. I watched her grow up, so don't worry, I definitely won't let her get bullied. "
"I know, Mom."
After Jiang Zishu finished speaking, the tears in her eyes started to drip.
"You're talking and talking, yet why are you crying? Look at Li Shu being bullied by you until she didn't cry, I only said a few words to you now. If this gets out, then why do you think I, an old granny, scolded you." Old Lady Gu smiled as she lifted his hand to wipe the tears on her face.
"I'm sorry, Mom. I'm being too immature. I know what to do in the future." Jiang Zishu said as she wiped her tears.
"There's no need to say sorry. Li Shu and I will be family in the future, so we can't hurt each other's relationship. If I don't say these things, you probably wouldn't understand. Don't think about these things, let's have the two children's wedding ceremony first."
Jiang Zishu smiled and nodded.
The afternoon sun shone through the gaps between the trees, shining on Lo Lishu's face through the window.
In the carriage, Gu Huaisheng slowly embraced Lo Lishu's shoulder, then held her hand and said, "Just now, mother was like that. You were wronged, but don't take it to heart."
Lo Lishu nodded, and looked up into his gentle eyes, smiling, "There's nothing to feel aggrieved about, your mother's temper is still considered good, and she didn't scold me, so she can be considered to have ignored me. If it were another mother-in-law, she might have kicked me out."
"You really think too much. It wouldn't be wrong for you to be ignored." Gu Huaisheng's gentle voice carried a trace of a smile.
Lo Lishu shrunk her neck, "What can I do about it? Do I have to lie in your arms and cry about my grievances? "That's your mother! In the future, it will also be my mother-in-law. If we really have any disagreements, you will definitely feel very uncomfortable."
When Gu Huaisheng heard her casually say these words, his heart felt warm and painful. She placed him at her heart, afraid that he would be stuck in a difficult situation, so he silently endured the grievances, not complaining at all.
"Li Shu, after we get married, we don't have to always come back to our old dwelling. I won't let you suffer such grievances anymore." As he spoke, he pulled her against his shoulder, letting her lean against him.
Lo Lishu leaned over, and smiled as she took his arm, "From now on, be responsible so that we won't suffer any grievances! Otherwise, I will punish you! "
Gu Huaisheng lifted his lips and called out, then tilted his head and whispered into her ear, "Whatever your wife says, it's what it is."
Lo Lishu blushed, she leaned on his shoulder without moving, a hand slowly stroking her lower abdomen.
Gu Huaisheng stretched out his hands and placed them lightly on her lower abdomen, feeling that there was a life here for the first time.
With a child here, his and Lo Lishu's flesh and blood, it was truly an inconceivable thing. In less than a year, he would be a father.
"Do you think our child is more like you or me after he was born?" Gu Huaisheng said.
"Mm …" "I don't know either. I'll know when the child is born." Lo Lishu tilted her head and thought about it, "I hope that he will be more like you, look good like that."
"Mrs. Gu, can I understand that you're praising Mr. Gu?" Gu Huaisheng raised her chin and asked with a smile.
