Chapter 560 - 551: I Want You
At the junction, Manager Luo and Madam Luo were awaiting their arrival alongside Chu, the esteemed servant of the Marquis, and Aunt Mu.
A procession of carriages arrived at the entrance of Tang Garden, where they did not stop. Instead, they pushed ahead to Fu Garden. Their intention was twofold; to first meet the old marquis, and then to bring the old master to this place.
The old Marquis stood by the entrance of Fu Garden and helped the old master descend from the carriage. He greeted Prince He with a fist and bow salute, which the prince graciously reciprocated with a bow.
The crowd entered Fu Garden to find it burgeoning with flowers in full bloom, their vibrant colors a feast for the eyes. Additionally, dozens of birds sang a harmonious symphony beneath the gallery...
Many times, Chen Afu dreamt of this place in his midnight reveries. Today, he had finally returned, his eyes brimming with emotion. Prince He and Chu Hanyan were equally moved, as this place evoked scores of pleasant memories for them.
Entering the main house, the old masters took their seats of honor. Chu Lingxuan, his wife and children gave their salutations, and the two mothers even carried Li and Zhu’er to give kowtows to him.
Once the salutations concluded, Yu’er set aside her minor grudges towards her grandfather. She ran a few steps and climbed onto the old Marquis’s knees, offering him a soft spoken explanation, "Grandpa, since you did not come to visit Yu’er, Yu’er came to see you. Yu’er missed you so much, did you miss Yu’er too?"
The soft-spoken words of his tiny granddaughter sparked a joyful smile in the old Marquis, hearty laughter pouring from him. It was the first time he had laughed so heartily since arriving in the countryside.
He replied, "Yes, Grandpa missed all of you very much, especially Grandpa’s little Yu’er."
Hearing her grandfather’s sweet response, Yu’er’s eyes curved into joyful crescents. She tried to please him further by saying, "My siblings and I will ask grandma to return home together. If she still refuses, my sister and I will cry for her. My sister’s cry is really pitiful. It’s even more heart-breaking than mine..." Her ceaseless chatter elicited laughter from everyone present.
