Chapter 767: To Suddenly Raise This Matter

“You’re married now and are someone else’s wife. You can’t be as headstrong as you used to be! Regardless of how blissful you are right now, don’t get dizzy over that. Remember… women absolutely shouldn’t abandon their work! Look at the Liu family’s daughter. Before she got married, she established her own company. And after she got married and had servants in the house, she carried on working, and she’s still enjoying a blissful marriage now! Now take a look at all those women who dropped their careers and led lives of a rich man’s wife after they married into a wealthy family…”

Lin Ran, who was listening by the side, suddenly realized… that Old Madam Lin wasn’t only strict when it came to her.

Old Madam Lin’s silver hair was combed neatly and tucked behind her ear. Her facial outline was slim, and her facial features had a dignified air about them, unlike other old ladies who looked kind and affable.

A gold-framed pair of spectacles adorned with pearls was perched on her sharp nose. Her black knitted top and wide-legged trousers, along with low high-heels, distinguished her from ordinary people…

What was surprising was that such an old lady’s thinking wasn’t old-fashioned. She wasn’t like other elderly people who felt that girls should stay at home and focus on their families after they got married.

On the contrary, Old Madam Lin meant to say that women should be independent in all areas even after they got married so that they could grow alongside their husbands!

She said that if one party in a marriage didn’t work on improving themselves, that when two people were standing at different levels, that was when problems would start to arise in a marriage.

Perhaps because Lin Nuan was brought up under the teachings of Old Madam Lin since she was young, the two of them were similar in terms of disposition, except that Old Madam Lin was clearly more assertive than Lin Nuan.

Old Master Lin had previously met Fu Huai’an and chatted with him and thus had a rather good impression of him. He reminded Fu Huai’an to take good care of Lin Nuan.

Worried that Lin Nuan would suffer grievances when she married over to the Fus, Old Master Lin didn’t hold back, saying to Fu Huai’an with everyone present, “None of the elders of the Fu family showed up at the wedding. In the future… when Nuan Nuan goes to the Fu family’s house, she will certainly suffer grievances! In the future, let Nuan Nuan stay away from there if there’s no absolute reason she has to be there!”

None of the elders from the Fu family had shown up at Fu Huai’an and Lin Nuan’s wedding. Plenty of people were probably gossiping about how the Fus were displeased with Lin Nuan because of her identity as a fake missy…

Fu Huai’an stood right beside Lin Nuan. With one hand in his pocket and the other holding Lin Nuan’s slim and fair fingers, he said to Old Master Lin with a smile, “In the future, I won’t go over with her if I can help it…”

This was Fu Huai’an making a guarantee to Old Master Lin.

Old Master Lin nodded, then said to Lin Nuan, “When you’re free, come back with Huai’an and stay for a few days, to accompany me and your grandma!”

Without waiting for Lin Nuan to reject, Fu Huai’an nodded and accepted. “Don’t worry, Grandpa!”

Lin Jingquan and Liang Mulan planned on letting Lin Ran bring Ji Yun to the Lin house to stay for a few days. Lin Ran held Ji Yun’s arm and asked Lin Nuan for her opinion.

Seeing Lin Ran holding Ji Yun’s sleeves while looking a little nervous, Lin Nuan nodded. “Okay…”

Even if Lin Nuan had allowed Lin Ran to go to the villa to visit Ji Yun, Lin Ran wasn’t sure that Lin Nuan would agree to her taking Ji Yun to the Lin house.

Lin Ran released her forceful grip on Ji Yun’s sleeves and gradually smiled. “Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of Mom!”

“With you taking care of Mom, I’m reassured!” Lin Nuan smiled at Lin Ran.

Lin Ran’s petite hand slipped from Ji Yun’s sleeves. She held hands with Ji Yun, their fingers intertwined, and her eyes slightly wet…

In the past, when she was young and insensible, Lin Ran wanted to repay whatever she owed Ji Yun!

Liang Mulan was big-hearted and didn’t at all mind her daughter treating her ex-mother so well. In fact, Liang Mulan was the one who suggested taking Ji Yun to the Lin house to stay for a few days!

“Then… I’ll go back with Mom first!” Lin Ran gripped Ji Yun’s fingers tightly. She looked back and saw that Ji Yun’s beautiful and clean eyes had lost focus, and she was staring into the distance. She then said to Liang Mulan, “Mom, are you leaving later?”

“I’ll leave when they’re nearly done cleaning up! You go back with your dad first!” Liang Mulan raised a hand and tucked Lin Ran’s stray locks of hair behind her ears, gazing at her with a comforting look.

“Okay!” Lin Ran nodded.

Liang Mulan watched as the wedding planning company cleared things away in the large greenhouse, and she only prepared to leave when she saw that they were more or less done.

Lin Nuan was holding onto Liang Mulan’s coat. “Mom, do you want to have dinner before leaving?”

Lin Nuan asked Liang Mulan to stay.

Liang Mulan took her coat from Lin Nuan’s arms and put it on, then wrapped the scarf around her neck. “You youngsters can only enjoy yourselves after Mom leaves. Don’t worry too much about Song Yao. Your older brother used to study medicine, and since he said she’s fine, she must be fine!”

Under the warm lighting in the entryway, Lin Nuan nodded.

Before she sent Liang Mulan to the door, snowflakes could be seen descending from the skies of Haicheng, which had been clear for the entire day. Under the bright lights in the Fu residence, it looked like a shade of gold.

One snowflake fell upon Lin Nuan’s flushed face, instantly melting into a water droplet.

As she gazed at her already married daughter, Liang Mulan’s eyes grew slightly reddened. She couldn’t resist reaching out to wipe away the water droplet from the melted snow on Lin Nuan’s petite face. “Today is your big day, so you must be happy! Mm?”

Liang Mulan caressed Lin Nuan’s fair and tender right cheek with a thumb, then said, “In the future, my Nuan Nuan will definitely be the happiest!”

She felt a sour sensation in her heart when she was clearly supposed to be happy at that moment…

Lin Nuan lowered her dense eyelashes and removed Liang Mulan’s hands from her face, holding them firmly. Her fingers, which were always cold, now had a warmth to them.

When Liang Mulan’s eyes met Lin Nuan’s clear ones, her eyes reddened, and her nose started to sting. She smiled and squeezed Lin Nuan’s hands, holding back the reluctance to part in her eyes. “It’s snowing and cold outside now. Go back!”

Lin Nuan nodded, but she still accompanied Liang Mulan to her car and helped her open the car door. She then said, “These two days that my mother will be staying over at the Lin house, I’ll trouble Mom to take care of her!”

“Don’t mention it! She’s your and Ran Ran’s mother! How would I feel tired taking care of her! Moreover… the caregivers taking care of her will be coming over with her, so there’s really not much trouble on my part! Don’t worry! I’ll take care of your mother with Ran Ran these few days. Just live well with Huai’an, and don’t worry about it!”

Lin Nuan nodded. Before Liang Mulan got into the car, she said with hesitation, “Then… with your mother at the Lin house now, when you and Huai’an have the time, do come back to the Lin house, okay?”

Lin Nuan paused momentarily.

Actually, Liang Mulan asked Lin Ran to bring Ji Yun home to stay with the Lins because she wanted to get Lin Nuan to go back to the Lin house!

Previously, at Christmas, Lin Nuan had left right after placing the Christmas presents meant for them at the door. She didn’t even enter for a cup of tea. Liang Mulan had been dwelling over that up until now.

“For the return of the bride to her mother’s home on the third day of the wedding, since your mother is at the Lin house, then why don’t you and Huai’an just return to the Lin house! Your mother is around too… I, your father, grandpa, and grandma are also around!” Liang Mulan asked, testingly, “Or do you have no plans to act according to that custom?”

Initially, Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an were planning to go to Ji Yun’s villa for the return of the bride to her mother’s home. Later, when Lin Ran said she wanted to take Ji Yun to the Lin house, Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an decided to postpone the date. She hadn’t expected Liang Mulan to suddenly raise this matter.
