"I was thinking about introducing my daughter to your family. She is a lovely and well-mannered beauty, has been since childhood."
Suddenly, the door opened, and Old Madam Long and the old master appeared at the doorway.
The four noblewomen inside exchanged looks, the other three quickly picked up their purses, ready to leave, but Old Madam Long didn’t let anyone out.
"What makes your daughter think she can marry into the Long Family?! She’s not even worthy to tie Beibei’s shoes," Old Madam Long snorted coldly, "Our Lili will remarry back into the family sooner or later. She is the only daughter-in-law of the Long Family, irreplaceable by anyone."
After saying that, Old Madam Long turned to Dragon Mother, "Come home with me."
Dragon Mother didn’t dare to let out a breath and followed her.
As soon as they got into the car, Old Madam Long scolded, "No sooner had you recovered than you rushed back to the mahjong parlor. Are you that bored with nothing better to do?"
"Hasn’t it been a long time since I last played? Mom, how come you and dad are here?"
"We were passing by, heard from the butler that you came to play mahjong, just came to see. All day with these gossipy women, can’t you elevate your tastes a bit? Can’t you focus your thoughts on your husband and children!" Old Madam Long could not help but warn, "Always focused on having fun and shopping, what good will come of it? Jiahao is finding women outside, besides his fault, don’t you bear some responsibility? A good family, turned upside down." Read full story at novel✦fire.net
Dragon Mother dared not back talk at all.
Having said enough, Old Madam Long took the cell phone from the old master’s hand and dialed Gu Lili’s number.
Previously, Gu Lili had called her, chatting as they used to, Old Madam Long truly hoped things could go back to the way they were.
The phone connected quickly, and Old Madam Long’s expressionless face immediately lit up with joy, "Is that Lili?"
"Lili, grandma and grandpa miss you. Come home for dinner tonight, it’s been a while since we saw you, we want to see you."
Gu Lili agreed, "Okay, I’ll come by in the evening."
"That’s wonderful, grandma will have the kitchen make your favorite dishes to wait for you."
After hanging up, Old Madam Long felt much better and reminded Dragon Mother, "Lili is coming tonight, you’d better show some enthusiasm, you hear me?"
Back at home, Dragon Mother sat at her vanity, removing the two large diamond earrings from her ears, "Gu Lili is coming over for dinner tonight, mom told us to be enthusiastic."
Father Long lay on the bed reading a book, "Enthusiastic about what, she’s not some honorable guest."
"In your mom’s eyes, she’s not just an honored guest, she’s practically the Goddess arriving."
Father Long said no more.
After hanging up, Gu Lili said to Long Yubei who was eating, "Grandma called and asked me to come back to the old house for dinner tonight. Are you going back?"
"Of course." He continued eating and asked, "You should hire a nanny or maid to cook, do laundry, and clean for you, it would be much easier, why have so much money if not to make life more comfortable."
"It’s not about having more or less money, I’m free anyway, I’m not disabled, I can totally do it myself, no need for a maid."
"When is Su Changzhi returning?"
"He comes back every now and then to stay a few days."
Gu Lili replied, "He comes back less often, too busy with the company."
"Are you planning to ask about everyone?"
