Chapter 240 - 239: A Play
Chen Shiying arranged the girls in new sequence again, and clarified that he had taken a day off tomorrow. In the morning, he would include Chen Afu’s name in the ancestral hall, under Mrs. Jiang’s name. Moreover, The Chus’ Mansion had already sent a delivery in the afternoon today, stating that Marquis Chu and Mrs. Chu would invite General Mr. Fu as a matchmaker to their mansion for consultation tomorrow.
Afterwards, Mrs. Jiang took her place of honor, and Chen Afu kowtowed to her. However, she didn’t call her "mother," but still called her "mother."
Mrs. Jiang was not fully satisfied with this address, but seeing Chen Afu’s sharp confrontation with the old lady just now, she genuinely did not want to offend this precious daughter anymore. Not only was this because she was about to marry into The Chus, but also because she was truly capable.
Mrs. Jiang took off a translucent, bright-green jade bracelet from her wrist, and with a full smile said, "Good girl, this was left to me by my grandmother, and I am giving it to you now. I hope that you will get along well with your brothers and sisters and always remember that this is your home."
Chen Afu responded, "Thank you, mother," then rose to accept the bracelet.
Chen Yuhui was extremely angry. At that time, the old lady had said something about letting Mrs. Jiang also include her under her name. Mrs. Jiang had agreed wholeheartedly, but she didn’t mention it anymore now. And the other thing was, grandma fell ill and she didn’t know if it would continue...
After Chen Afu completed the ceremony, Chen Shiying said, "You siblings must care for each other and unite. Alright, let’s all go have a meal."
Chen Shiying led the children to the West Wing for dinner, while Mrs. Jiang led the maids to the old lady’s bedroom to serve her dinner.
