owncast, her voice tinged with a hint of grievance: “You assigned me to be by Lady Li’s side…”Where are you goingMeng Jinyao shook her head gently and said softly, "You are so clever and capable. How...Soon after, the gate of the mansion opened and Meng Dongyuan arrived at the front door with Mrs. Sun and three younger generations.

Gu Jingxi also got out of the carriage. He glanced at his wife who was standing on the carriage, about to get down. He thought for a moment, then reached out his hand to her.

Seeing this, Meng Jinyang's expression faltered slightly before she quickly recovered. She cooperated by placing her hand in his palm and, under the watchful eyes of her family members, allowed him to support her as she stepped down from the carriage.

Meng Dongyuan and Mrs. Sun saw this scene and their faces changed. They didn't expect that although their daughter had a bad reputation, she was favored by Hou Changxing and had not wasted her good looks after all.

Meng Dongyuan smiled brightly, with a touch of flattery, and said: "Ayao, Xianxu, you're finally here. Your grandmother has been waiting for a long time, she just mentioned you."

Sun Shi looked at Meng Jin Yao, noticing her rosy complexion. She didn't seem like someone who had been wronged. With a pleasant smile, she said to her son-in-law: "Son-in-law, look at our daughter Yao's good spirits, it shows that you treat her very well. Ever since she got married, this mother has been worried sick. Seeing that she is doing well, the big stone in my heart can finally be put down."

Meng Jinyao listened to them calling him "a good husband" one after another, and couldn't help but admire them a little. Her father was only five years older than Gu Jingxi, and Mrs. Sun was only two years older than Gu Jingxi. Facing people of the same generation and similar age, that title "good husband" could be uttered so easily.

Gu Jingxi glanced at them lightly and said nonchalantly, "Is that so With the Yongchang Bo Mansion's gates firmly shut, I thought you weren't welcoming my husband and me."

Meng Dongyuan's smile faltered, and he instinctively threw the blame onto Mrs. Sun, demanding, "Madam, wasn't I told to have someone waiting at the gate Why is the door locked"

Mrs. Sun choked back her grievance, but could only accept this blame. She forced a smile and explained: “My memory is so poor! I was so busy preparing for Ah Yao's return visit today that I completely forgot about this. Don't blame your wife.”

Gu Jingxi, however, did not give them a step down, pushing them into an even more embarrassing situation: "To be able to forget about this kind of thing, it shows that Mr. Meng and Mrs. Meng don't take our couple seriously."

He glanced at the couple whose faces had gone stiff, then said: "Even if you've forgotten, our marriage has reached the door, yet we were left out here. It seems that the Yongchang Marquis Mansion doesn't intend to let Ayao enter If I hadn't come, wouldn't Ayao have returned without even getting a cup of tea"

His gaze was cold and distant, his voice gradually turning colder, with a hint of accusation.

Son：“……”

Meng Dongyuan: "..."

Just tell me the truth, no matter what.

The couple was speechless and unable to retort to his words, their faces stiff. With a curt "Master Meng" and "Madam Meng," they distanced themselves, making it clear that Gu Jingxi didn't treat them as in-laws.

Their three junior generations behind them also had different expressions.

A look of surprise flashed across Meng Jin Yao's eyes. She hadn't expected Gu Jing Xi to speak to her father and Sun Shi like that, and to say what she wanted to say. Seeing the couple speechless, a sense of satisfaction filled her heart.

For a moment, Meng Dong endured the awkwardness, stumbling through an explanation: "Where is your husband Yao is my first child, and I love her dearly. Today is her day to visit her parents' home. Even if your husband is busy with work and can't accompany her, we wouldn't turn her away."

Mrs. Sun also hurriedly chimed in, "That's right, I was so busy today that I completely forgot! " She then gave Meng Jin Yao a subtle look, hoping she could use her wit to smooth things over.

While Meng Jin Yao pretended not to see, she lowered her head and stood beside Gu Jing Xi obediently, acting like a docile little daughter-in-law.in Yao had her answer. Since he was nervous in front of her, then her grandmother falling ill must be fake. It was all an excuse to get her back to Yongchang Marquis's Mansion.Although her in-laws wer...
