The fake daughter has too much property to inherit!

Ye Zhi left home and asked the driver to take her directly to the company, and then went to Mrs. Nan's residence with Nan Yanhua.

After arriving at Old Lady Nan's house, she was dozing with her eyes closed in the yard.

Ye Zhi had a proper smile on his face and said softly, "Mom, why don't you go in? It's so windy outside."

"Yes, Mom, it's a bit cold outside. It would be bad if you catch a cold." Nan Yanhua is still filial.

Old Mrs. Nan raised her eyelids and looked at her son and daughter-in-law. Her voice was weak but she did not allow any objection.

"You are all here, please sit down first."

Then, Ye Zhi and Nan Yanhua sat on the chairs next to Old Lady Nan.

Ye Zhi looked at his mother-in-law who closed her eyes and remained silent, and nudged Nan Yanhua next to him with his elbow.

Nan Yanhua received her message, moved his body, and whispered, "Mom, is there something you want to ask Xiaozhi and me to come here today?"

Old Madam Nan didn't even bother to open her eyelids. She let out a breath, snorted coldly, and then spoke: "If nothing happens, can't I call you?"

Old Madam Nan opened her eyes, glanced coldly at her only son and daughter-in-law beside her, and sneered:

"It's really a blessing that I have some money and can afford to hire a lot of people to take care of me. Otherwise, if I were to be sick at home for a few days, no one would know."

Ye Zhi smiled but didn't respond immediately.

The other person's own son was sitting next to her, so why should she take the initiative to speak and act as a punching bag?

Ye Zhi naturally understood what Mrs. Nan meant.

Since the dinner, she held her breath and deliberately didn't come here once.

Ye Zhi thought that maybe her two sons had never come, which was why Mrs. Nan was so sarcastic.

Ye Zhi didn't say anything, but Nan Yanhua couldn't stand it anymore.

"Mom, why are you saying these unlucky words? We've been very busy with new business recently. We'll come together to liven things up for you later."

Yeats also echoed, "Yes, Mom."

"Oh, no need. I didn't call you here today to scold you for being "unfilial." Old Mrs. Nan didn't want to hear her son's excuses.

Old Mrs. Nan knows better than anyone else what her son's family is doing recently.

It is true that the son is busy, but the daughter-in-law and grandson may not be that busy.

Nan Yanhua tactfully shut up and changed the subject.

"Mom, is there something urgent today?"

Old Mrs. Nan was in a bad mood and continued to close her eyes and pretend to be asleep, too lazy to answer him.

Not getting an answer, Nan Yanhua and Ye Zhi could only sit there in silence.

The three of them sat in silence for a while, and then the aunt came out and said it was time to eat.

Ye Zhi felt that it would be unreasonable for him to remain silent, so he stood up and approached Old Lady Nan, calling her softly.

"Mom, let's go in and have dinner."

Old Mrs. Nan opened her eyes, but did not look at Ye Zhi. She said "hmm" in a vicissitudes of life voice and stretched out her hand.

Yeats held her hand with one arm and used the other to help her up.

.......................

After dinner, in the dark, ancient and heavy living room of the house.

Ye Zhi and Nan Yanhua sat on the right side of Old Lady Nan, waiting patiently for her words.

Finally, feeling that the time was almost up, Old Mrs. Nan put down the tea in her hand and calmly got to the point.

"Yanhua, do you still remember the marriage agreement between the Nan and Gu families that your father mentioned?"

Nan Yanhua frowned and thought for a second, then nodded and replied calmly, "I remember."

As soon as the word "engagement" came out, Ye Zhi understood the purpose of Old Lady Nan calling them here today, and asked gently: "Mom, is the Gu family planning this?"

Old Lady Nan nodded, "Yes, they do have this plan."

Nan Yanhua asked in surprise: "Mom, why did they suddenly come up with this plan?"

Old Madam Nan spoke calmly, "On the day of the birthday banquet, Old Madam Gu brought it up on her own initiative. I think she felt her grandson was getting older and hadn't brought anyone home. She was getting anxious and decided to find a family she knew well. It just so happened that the two families had a marriage contract, so she brought it up again."

A hint of resistance flashed in Ye Zhi's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

"So what do you think, Mom?"

Yeats was not very willing to do so. She hoped that her daughter could choose the boy she liked and did not want her to be bound by the conventions of the older generation.

Old Madam Nan, as if deliberately showing off Yeats's talent, slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip before saying calmly, "I didn't make the engagement."

Yeats knew that there was more to come, so he smiled faintly and waited for what would happen next.

"Mom, what do you mean?" Nan Yanhua asked directly.

Old Mrs. Nan held the teacup in both hands, raised her drooping eyelids, and spoke the following.

"I didn't make the original engagement, so whether to cancel it or fulfill it, the initiative is not mine.

Now that Mrs. Gu has decided to discuss this engagement, it is natural to follow her wishes."

Yeats understood the implicit meaning of the words, which was that "she agreed to continue the engagement."

Nan Yanhua did not object to this, on the contrary he was happy to see it happen.

"Mom, when will the Gu family discuss the next steps? When will we get engaged or anything else?"

Old Madam Nan casually threw out two words, "Before the New Year."

"No." Yeats couldn't sit still when he heard how urgent the time was.

Hearing Ye Zhi's words, Old Lady Nan and Nan Yanhua looked at her at the same time.

Nan Yanhua seemed to be asking: Why not?

And there were only a few words written in Old Lady Nan's eyes: Your opinion is not important.

After understanding what Old Lady Nan meant, Ye Zhi forced a smile and said, "Mom, Yanhua, it's been more than two months since the New Year, so time is running out."

Old Lady Nan smiled, but it didn't reach her eyes. "Xiaozhi, tell me why you feel uncomfortable."

Yeats knew that Mrs. Nan did not believe her reason that time was of the essence.

But for the sake of his daughter's marriage, he had to speak out his true feelings.

"Mom, I think Youyou is still young. She hasn't even celebrated her 21st birthday yet. It's a bit too early to talk about marriage. Besides, the child's wishes are more... "More important...

"Oh, what did you say?" Old Mrs. Nan interrupted Ye Zhi's unfinished words as if she had heard a joke.

Ye Zhi twitched her lips slightly, her voice soft but firm: "Mom, I hope Youyou can talk about marriage in a few years."

"Shut up right there." Old Madam Nan sneered and looked at Ye Zhi sharply. "Haha, what does my Nan family's engagement have to do with your adopted daughter?"

Yeats was stunned for a while after being scolded before he reacted.

The marriage that Old Lady Nan was talking about was not Youyou's, but Shengsheng's. She had preconceived notions that it was Youyou's...

But even for Shengsheng, it's still too early to talk about marriage now.

Yeats opened his lips slightly, trying to make his meaning clear.

But he didn't say it out loud, and just listened to Old Lady Nan continue to scold him.
