“Shuyu?” The Old Master didn’t seem to notice what the Old Madam was saying and only waved at her happily. “You came at the right time. Look at what gift Linyi has given me.”

As if he was introducing a big shot, he held his hands up to Su Yanyun. “The grandson’s daughter-in-law, and the fat great-grandson, the twins! Haha… Su Yanyun! As her name suggests, she’s as red as rouge and as bright as jade!”

Old Madam Rong looked at the Old Master’s satisfied expression and listened to him praise Su Yanyun wordlessly. The hatred in her eyes was almost overflowing.

But she couldn’t flare up at the Old Master.

She could only walk over in a strange manner.

She sat beside Old Master Rong and glanced maliciously at Madam Rong and Su Yanyun.

Sensing Su Yanyun’s nervousness, Madam Rong immediately pinched her hand and gestured for her not to be afraid.

“Congratulations, Old Master.” Old Madam Rong said hypocritically. “But Old Master, don’t forget that you don’t only have one granddaughter-in-law, but you also have more than a pair of great-grandchildren. It’s disheartening to favor one over the other.”

“Sigh, Xin Ming’s wife isn’t such a petty person. Besides, even if I dote on Yanyun a little, won’t I still have you? Go and dote on her a little more. Go, go.” The Old Master’s heart was probably already on the horizon.

Old Madam Rong was so angry her stomach almost fell.

The reason she ignored Su Yanyun was because she was afraid of this scene.

The old man had always been biased towards his eldest son’s family because of guilt. Rong Linyi had such a serious psychological trauma, but the old man still stubbornly handed the position of the family head to him.

Not to mention, Rong Xinming was clearly a year older than Rong Linyi. Although he was from the second branch, he should be the eldest grandson.

“Old Master only has eyes for his eldest branch’s great-grandson now. Even if Xin Ming’s wife died outside, you probably don’t care anymore, right?” The Old Madam said strangely.

“What are you saying?” The Old Master touched the Old Madam’s elbow. “Don’t be petty. Won’t I be more happy than anyone that Xin Ming’s wife is pregnant?”

“Old Master, you make it sound so nice. Our Lirong hasn’t appeared yet, and you didn’t even ask her about it. Is this called concern?” Old Madam Rong’s words were filled with resentment.

After her reminder, the Old Master realized that he really didn’t even notice Sun Lirong.

He chuckled awkwardly. “I thought she went shopping with you. Xin Ming, where’s your wife?”

The Old Master asked Rong Xinming, who was in the background.

Rong Xinming smiled vaguely and replied casually. “She’s a little unwell, so… I’m really sorry that she couldn’t attend Grandfather’s birthday banquet.”

“That’s true.” The Old Master nodded in understanding. “There are many people at the birthday banquet who talk nonsense. If she’s not feeling well, she should stay at home and take care of the baby. But I think that Lirong’s body is a little too weak. Look at Yanyun, she’s so healthy. She’s white, fat, and tall. She’s still red-faced and energetic after five months.”

Grandpa, she’s not fat! She’s not bulky either!

Rong Linyi seemed to be angered by the Old Master’s “praise”.

He stood behind Su Yanyun with a dark expression. “Grandpa, my Yanyun is very small and tender!”

“I’m just describing and expressing my satisfaction and praise for Yanyun.” The Old Master was friendly.

“Master!” Old Madam Rong finally couldn’t take it anymore…
