No wonder this woman had appeared with Lan Yuge. It turns out that she had helped Master Dongfang and was not the daughter-in-law he had chosen.
With this, everyone in the banquet hall heaved a sigh of relief.
Lan Yuge furrowed her brows in dissatisfaction and swept her gaze across Master Dongfang. She scoffed and ignored him. She held Gu Ruoyun's hand affectionately and said, "Yun'er, let's not bother about this old antique. Come, sit with me."
She then pulled Gu Ruoyun towards the seats at the front of the banquet hall.
"This..." Master Dongfang was dumbstruck. He stared at Dongfang Shaoze with an aggrieved look on his face, "Is your mother angry?"
Dongfang Shaoze raised his lips disapprovingly, "I've already told you to be nicer to Yun'er. Right now, she's practically the apple of Mother's eye. She's afraid that she'll melt in your mouth and fall in your hands. If you treat her so fiercely, do you think Mother will be nice to you?"
What he had said was the truth. Yun'er had suffered far too much on her own all these years. Every time Mother mentioned it, she would feel guilty and wanted to use the rest of her life to make it up to her. Furthermore, Mother had transferred all her love for her sister to Yu'er. If the old man were to yell at her now, knowing Mother's temper, she would certainly not lash out at him. However, the result would be that she would ignore him for the rest of the day...
Master Dongfang's beard trembled in anger. He had previously treated Gu Ruoyun well so that she could persuade Lan Yuge to come down. He had thought that once Lan Yuge had come down, he would be able to regain his original temperament. Who would have thought that this little girl would be able to subdue his wife so quickly?
This is great, I reckon that I'll be suppressed by this wretched girl for the rest of my life.
"Father, for the sake of your future life, it's best that you speak to Yun 'er in a nicer tone. Otherwise, you know the consequences." Dongfang Shaoze patted Master Dongfang's shoulder sympathetically and walked away gloatingly.
Master Dongfang's expression was as ugly as if he had just eaten a mouthful of sh * t. He stared resentfully at Lan Yuge, who was chatting cheerfully with Gu Ruoyun, and felt the sorrow of life for the first time...
However, he quickly regained his composure and sat down next to Lan Yuge as if nothing had happened. He coughed drily and said, "Welcome, everyone, to my Madam's birthday celebration. Today, aside from my Madam's birthday celebration, there is another announcement to be made after the celebration. This is an important matter for the Dongfang Family and I hope that everyone will give their blessings."
Something big? Blessing?
Everyone was stunned. Could it be about Young Master Dongfang's marriage? Otherwise, why would Grandpa Sheng say something like that?
Thinking of this, everyone began to whisper to each other, wondering which family's girl was so lucky to be able to gain the favor of the Dongfang family.
Of course, among the crowd, only the Lin family was particularly excited.
They could already imagine the Dongfang Family announcing the marriage between Young Master Dongfang and Miss Lin Yue'er after the celebration.
It made sense. After so many years, the old man of the Dongfang Family had only revealed his thoughts to the Lin family. He had never revealed anything to the other families. So, the Lin family assumed that this would be the good news that Grandpa Sheng was about to announce. They could not wait any longer.
"Master Dongfang," Lin Shao smiled and rose to his feet, "This junior is here to attend the birthday celebration in my father's place. I am very interested in the good news that the Dongfang Family is about to announce. I would like to congratulate the Dongfang Family first. Furthermore, my father has heard that Madam Lan has always been fond of cultivating medicinal herbs. Hence, he had painstakingly obtained a stalk of blood ginseng from the wildlands. He has specially come to show his filial piety to Madam Lan."
