The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 244: Chapter 243: Counterquestion

Old Mrs. Gu’s expression immediately darkened upon hearing this. She quickly pulled Yiyi, who was beside her, just about to speak.

However, Old Mrs. Song, who had been seated for a while, preemptively chuckled and said, ”Meilian, if this is what you’re thinking, it truly is a match made in heaven. Your Yunfang and Tingyu are indeed a match made in heaven, they really suit each other.”

Sitting next to Old Mrs. Song was Song Weili.

Hearing Mrs. Ding’s words, she also felt very happy.

Her good friend could finally get her wish fulfilled; it was no wonder her friend wasn’t worried before, as it turned out her grandmother also supported her.

If Mrs. Ding truly supported and assisted her, her friend could really have her wish come true.

Thinking of this, Song Weili gave Yiyi a smiling glance, wanting to see how Mo Yiyi would still have the face to attend their gatherings after today, perhaps she would be a laughingstock for everyone.

Ding Yating walked into the hall and heard her mother’s words, and her face changed immediately.

Although she knew that her mother supported Yunfang, she really didn’t expect her mother would say it out loud in front of everyone like this. Doesn’t this make the Ding Family seem too domineering?

After all, Old Mrs. Gu had brought over Gu Tingyu’s partner today to show everyone that Mo Yiyi is their Gu Family’s granddaughter-in-law, but now her mother said this, it just feels... a bit like forcing things.

Yu Qiulan, who followed behind, felt a secret joy upon hearing this.

She really didn’t expect even Mrs. Ding to support Tingyu and Yunfang, if the Ding Family’s support was real, Tingyu’s future path would indeed be smoother.

While Yu Qiulan was dreaming about the future, Old Mrs. Gu stood up with a difficult face.

”I know Yunfang is a good kid, but our Tingyu already has a partner, sitting right beside me is Yiyi. I even brought her here today to introduce her to everyone.”

She naturally knew that Chen Meilian was doing it on purpose; She obviously saw her bring Yiyi over yet said such things publicly to embarrass her, the old woman.

However, considering the situation of the Ding Family, Old Mrs. Gu held back her anger as best as she could, calmly saying these words; otherwise, she would have cursed out loud already.

When she heard Old Mrs. Gu’s words, Chen Meilian then shifted her gaze to Yiyi’s face.

But once she saw Yiyi’s looks, her eyes were filled with disgust, and she snorted coldly, ”When did your Tingyu find a partner? We didn’t hear anything, let alone hear about any engagement party from your family.”

”Although the engagement party hasn’t been held yet, the parents of both sides have already met, so it’s been decided long ago.” Old Mrs. Gu forced back her anger, but still managed to speak with a smile, and straightforwardly introduced, ”Since there are so many people today, let me introduce her properly. This is Mo Yiyi, our Gu Family’s eldest grandson’s wife.”

Yiyi stood up gracefully, smiling as she nodded to the people around, as a form of greeting.

”This young girl is poised and confident, she seems quite nice, no wonder the old lady of the Gu Family likes her so much and even rejected the Ding family’s proposal.”

”Indeed, it shows the Gu Family is truly satisfied with this young girl, but... If you ask me, that Yunfang girl is good too, looks, family background, how could Old Mrs. Gu be so tough to refuse?”

”Yes, yes, even Mrs. Ding personally proposed, yet Old Mrs. Gu refused, what a shame.”

”If it were me, I would definitely choose Yunfang, think about how big the Ding Family is.”

The surrounding people were abuzz, discussing Shu Yunfang and Yiyi, some feeling the Gu Family’s decision was right, choosing based on their grandson’s preference, while others thought Shu Yunfang was the better choice, and the Gu Family was missing out.

Chen Meilian initially thought that by publicly extending an olive branch, even if Old Mrs. Gu didn’t agree immediately, she would at least consider it, maybe respond with some evasive words. But she didn’t expect to be outright rejected, so her face turned an ugly shade of greenish black.

How long had it been since she was last refused?

The old lady of the Gu Family truly doesn’t appreciate kindness.

”Qiu Lan, didn’t expect you to be here too, so tell me, is the person standing next to your family’s old lady really Tingyu’s partner? The daughter-in-law you’ve already accepted?”

Upon hearing this, Yu Qiulan felt all eyes on her, among them two sharp gazes were especially glaring.

One was the friendly and heated gaze from Mrs. Ding Chen Meilian, clearly harboring thoughts of a union between the families.

The other was the sharp stare from Old Mrs. Gu, as if daring her to disagree.

Yu Qiulan naturally wished she could raise both hands to agree with Mrs. Ding’s proposal, and settle her son and Shu Yunfang’s marriage right away.

But with Old Mrs. Gu present, she remained somewhat apprehensive and could only softly say, ”Our family’s Tingyu hasn’t been engaged nor married yet, how could I have a daughter-in-law?”

”Hahaha... that’s right, we old wives haven’t attended any wedding, so how could Qiu Lan have a daughter-in-law?” Old Mrs. Song couldn’t help but laugh out loud seeing Yu Qiulan denying Mo Yiyi on the spot.

Everyone else also noticed that the Gu Family’s eldest daughter-in-law, Yu Qiulan, didn’t favor Mo Yiyi but was more satisfied with Shu Yunfang, so... it seemed there was a split between Old Mrs. Gu and her eldest daughter-in-law.

Yiyi gave Yu Qiulan and Old Mrs. Song a deep look, then suddenly smiled brightly, ”Looks like I have really good taste, picked such a popular partner. Auntie was right, since I haven’t married Gu Tingyu yet, I really don’t count as part of the Gu Family. But... is Miss Shu so unwanted that she has to go after a man who’s already taken, could it be you have a penchant for being a third party?”

After saying this, Yiyi looked at Old Mrs. Song and said, ”Grandmother, even if you’re angry at my godparents choosing me instead of Song Weili, it wasn’t necessary to embarrass me publicly. Even a three-year-old knows that family scandals shouldn’t be aired in public, I assume grandmother must know this too.”

Earlier, Yiyi had noticed Chen Meilian’s cold gaze towards her, understanding that she couldn’t get along with the Ding Family, so she naturally didn’t plan to wrong herself.

As for Old Mrs. Song, who sided with outsiders against her, she couldn’t easily agree either. Initially, the Song Family didn’t invite many people to their wedding, so many still didn’t know about her connection with the Song Family. This time, she might as well clear it up directly.

”You... what nonsense are you talking about, who has the penchant for being a third party.”

Shu Yunfang was furious, pointing at Yiyi’s nose angrily.
