The Favored Little Peasant Seizes the Heroine's Script!-Chapter 448 - 427: Some Rejoice, Some Grieve

"What’s missing?"

Old Yuan didn’t know how to answer this question.

According to Mrs. Zeng, their family was no different from royalty and nobility.

But Old Yuan just felt uneasy.

"Old man, today is Jiaojiao’s big day!"

"If you don’t go, what will Jiaojiao think? What about the son-in-law?"

"Our family is separated now!"

With these words from Mrs. Zeng, Old Yuan couldn’t stay calm any longer.

The family is separated!

Yes, separated!

Old Yuan finally understood why he felt uneasy.

It was because he realized that his words no longer had any weight.

All along, even after the family separation, he was still the head of the family, and his words carried weight. But from when did his youngest son’s family stop being under his control?

"Old woman, you’re right!"

"Help me pick out a set of new clothes, let’s head out now, we should still make it in time!"

Old Yuan finally had to face reality.

"That’s more like it!"

"The children have grown up, we should just enjoy a peaceful life now!"

"Previously, the actions of the eldest’s family hurt Xiao Wu and Jiaojiao, and by siding with the eldest’s family, we already made them unhappy!"

"If we don’t change this time, we might truly drift apart from the children!"

With this persuasion from Mrs. Zeng, Old Yuan temporarily let go of his inner conflict.

However, whether he really came to terms with it is unknown.

People change.

The former Old Yuan and Mrs. Zeng treated Yuan Bao exceptionally well because of her special status, she was regarded as the family treasure. But, over a long time without being together, the relationship naturally changed.

People, after all, are emotional creatures.

Even if it’s a cat or a dog raised by your side for a long time, you’ll develop feelings.

Conversely, it’s the same.

Without interaction, where would deep feelings come from?

Feelings grow over time, that’s something passed down through the ages.

Old Yuan and Mrs. Zeng going to attend Yuan Bao’s three-day return ceremony certainly couldn’t be hidden from Mrs. Li and others staying at the house.

Originally, Mrs. Li and others also wanted to go.

But without a word from Old Yuan, they didn’t dare to move.

If they secretly went, it would certainly offend Old Yuan.

Now that Old Yuan wanted to go, they naturally hurried to follow.

So, behind Yuan Bao and Wei Wushang’s group heading to the Capital, the Yuan Family’s group quickly appeared.

Leading the way, Yuan Shoucheng, upon knowing Yuan Bao and Wei Wushang’s party was ahead, quickly went to report to Old Yuan and Mrs. Zeng sitting in the carriage, asking if they should catch up.

"It’s not appropriate!"

Old Yuan thought for a moment, shook his head, and rejected Yuan Shoucheng’s proposal.

This is Yuan Bao’s three-day return, her maternal family should welcome her, but the ones showing up should be her peers. However, in their group, there’s Old Yuan, the grandfather, and several aunts like Mrs. Li.

Considering this, Old Yuan chose to follow the Wei Family’s group from behind, proceeding slowly.

Thus, the two groups with the same destination maintained a certain distance, each going their own way.

Only when both groups entered the Capital did Old Yuan order them to increase speed, take a shortcut and arrive at Yuan Yindi’s house in the Capital before Yuan Bao and Wei Wushang.

This house was much smaller than the Yuan Family’s house in Yunyang City.

However, in terms of price, Yuan Yindi’s house was much more expensive than the one in Yunyang City.

Living in the Capital is not easy.

This saying is no empty phrase but a fact everyone must face.

Of course, Yuan Yindi did have the opportunity to buy a bigger and better house, but to do so, he would need more Silver, or even sell the house in Yunyang City.

However, the house in Yunyang City had become home for Old Yuan and Mrs. Zeng, and under the elder couple’s indulgence, Mrs. Li and others had nearly taken it over. If Yuan Yindi were to sell the house, he would absolutely be stirring up a hornet’s nest.

Because of the family’s support for his education back then, Yuan Yindi had to swallow this dissatisfaction.

If not, he would surely be labeled as ungrateful.

Life is just too difficult!

To live freely and splendidly, there are too many unbearable burdens.

...

When Old Yuan and Mrs. Zeng, along with the rest of the Yuan Family appeared in front of Yuan Yindi, Yuan Yindi immediately felt relieved.
