“You are a man and your presence would not work! It is always women who make the calls at the Adulthood Ceremony. Even if you are there, you would not be able to organize the event at all.”
“…”
“If I am there, I can at least be devoted enough to organize the Adulthood Ceremony. I am the aunt, and that Mrs. Gu is just a stepmother. She has her own daughter who wants to exceed Chaoyan. I am not like that, at least, I am better than Mrs. Gu. I don’t have a daughter.”
“…”
“Also, the Gu Mansion is not treating Chaoyan well. They would never pay attention to the ceremony. I am taking her side!” Mrs. Lin said confidently.
Hearing what she said, Lin Jiaxing believed that those words did make sense. His sister passed away when she was still young, and the whole Gu Family was not nice at all. They were the girl’s family and they should be present to back her up!
As he thought it through, Lin Jiaxing noded. “Then let’s go there together.”
“…”
“Don’t expect to get everything from Chaoyan. She has gained nothing from us either. She cured Jiashu, but you all misunderstood her. Now we are just trying to make some compensation,” Lin Jiaxing said.
Ms. Lin did not agree with this point, but she would not deny the point now. They could talk about this later…
Being at the Adulthood Ceremony was the most important thing. Nothing else mattered.
“I got it, let’s go now, it is better not to be late.” Mrs. Lin reminded them.
Lin Jiaxing nodded. Then the whole family got into the wagon together.
The Lin Family were living in the outskirts whilst the Gu Family were residing in the center, so the trip took some time.
The Lin Family had no idea what happened these days, and they had thought that the Gu Family would have no guests. So Mrs. Lin was very startled by the wagons parked outside the Gu Mansion one after another.
“The Min Family’s wagon?” Mrs. Lin’s voice was shivering.
Lin Jiaxing was not surprised. He knew that since Gu Chaoyan was marrying Lord Huai, the noble families from the capital would be here. Those who were present might not like Chaoyan, but they were present for Lord Huai’s sake.
He threw a look at Mrs. Lin. “Keep your mouth shut, and go in, don’t cause any trouble for Chaoyan!”
As he finished saying these words, Mrs. Lin stopped talking. She felt quite expectant of what was happening.
She always got sneered at by some ladies of the business families. If she could get in touch with Mrs. Min, then she would be able to have a better position in life. Lin Jiaxing was unaware of any of this!
Chen Fu received the Lin Family since it was Elder Miss’ mother’s home. Then he led them to the hall of the Gu Mansion.
Gu Chaoyan and the others were there as well. Hearing what Chen Fu said, Gu Chaoyan smiled. “Hey, Uncle and Aunt.”
Lin Jiaxing smiled and Mrs. Lin noticed Madame Min. She was absolutely shocked.
She thought that it was Mrs. Min who was here, but it was Madame Min! Oh man, it was Madame Min!
Madame Min barely made friends with anyone in the family, and yet she was here!
Mrs. Lin was shocked. Lin Jiashu, on the other hand, noticed Gu Chaoyan.
She had changed. She had changed a great deal.
