Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2557: Chapter 2493: Fight Back

Old Master Lu’s tone deepened, ”This is even more inappropriate. Old Jiang, you know, now you’re getting on in years, have you started to neglect the rules? What is that child’s identity?”

What identity? Isn’t she just the Sixth Young Master’s daughter?

Old Master Lu spoke earnestly, ”After all, she is an illegitimate child, which means she is the result of Xiao Sixth’s youthful indiscretion, with some wild woman outside with no formal engagement or marriage. In families like ours, such an identity is absolutely disgraceful. Just being able to support her education is already a kindness. Her future depends on her fate, but can she be brought back home to be raised as a legitimate granddaughter?”

As he spoke, he couldn’t help but sneer, ”Throughout history, women without a proper matchmaker or marriage, even if the family agrees to let them in, can only have a lower status. Now, with the new era, there’s no major or minor anymore, it’s all about monogamy. Xiao Sixth had some trouble before and we don’t know exactly what happened, so having such a woman and child is understandable. Shuangshuang girl, you must be generous and not refuse to accept that child.”

Lu Shuangshuang responded.

”Grandfather, I understand.”

Is this grandfather-granddaughter exchange truly going to finalize the marriage between Jiang Liu and Lu Shuangshuang?

And was Chiang Xiao directly labeled as an illegitimate child?

Does this mean she won’t be allowed back in the Jiang Family? Is it already considered quite good just to have her tuition paid?

Old Master Jiang smirked internally.

Tonight, he finally saw things clearly.

It seems that after Xiao Sixth confronted Lu Shuangshuang directly, the Lu Family got a bit anxious and revealed their ambitions.

Good, really good, to have deceived him all these years.

Old Master Jiang wasn’t to be trifled with.

This is still the Jiang Family’s territory, and the Jiang Family is still his to govern. Since when did the Lu family get to dictate in their home?

He picked up a glass of wine and said, ”Just now, Xiao Sixth wanted to toast Old Lu, but it didn’t work out. Let me toast Old Lu instead. As for my great-granddaughter’s matters, let Xiao Sixth handle it himself. I, as the great-grandfather, am not too concerned. How can we trouble Shuangshuang?”

As the great-grandfather, I’m not meddling, why should a stranger?

”Earlier, it was my mistake, asking Shuangshuang to help arrange my great-granddaughter’s room. Shuangshuang, don’t be upset with me. It’s really too much trouble for you. From now on, let Qiu Yan handle this.”

As Old Master Jiang spoke, he looked at Jiang Qiuyan, ”Qiu Yan, did you hear that?”

”Uncle, I heard,” Jiang Qiuyan quickly responded, ”I will definitely decorate Xiao Xiao’s courtyard beautifully.”

”Alright, then I’ll trouble you. Communicate more with that child on the phone, ask about her preferences, so that when she comes home, she’ll feel comfortable.”

Old Master Jiang continued, raising his glass to Old Master Lu with a smile, ”Old Lu, cheers, cheers. Let’s leave the youngsters’ matters aside. At our age, we should just enjoy tea and some music, take things easy.”

The Jiang family members felt their hearts tighten immediately.

Those few words from the old master were a straightforward rejection of Old Master Lu!

What on earth is happening?

How did this suddenly escalate to all-out confrontation?

And what is the old master thinking, could it be that he truly doesn’t want Jiang Liu to marry Lu Shuangshuang?

Is this leading to a fallout?

Immediately, everyone became extremely tense.
