Chapter 25 The Old Lady of the Lan Family (3)
“Leading the way forward.”
Bai Yan nodded to the old lady, and under the guidance of the old lady, she stepped into the threshold.
...
The courtyard of the Lan family is different from the luxury of the Bai family. Instead, it has a kind of elegance like mountains and rivers, and is quiet and peaceful everywhere.
Bai Yan had just walked a few steps and saw a short distance away. An old lady with white eyebrows and hair was helping others, hurried towards her with a cane.
"Yan'er, are you Yan'er?" The old lady burst into tears. She walked to Bai Yan before stopping, and gently supported her face with her rough and trembling hands, "Child, you have suffered over the years."
The words of suffering made Bai Yan feel a little sad. She raised her hand to hold the old lady's trembling body: "Grandma, I'm here to see you."
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back," the old lady's voice was trembling all the time. "Since you're back now, let's stay at my Lan family for a few days first. Madam Sun will prepare a room for Miss Cousin."
"Yes," Madam Sun bowed respectfully, "But, the old lady, I think Miss Bai might have to stay in our Lan Mansion."
The old lady was stunned and her expression suddenly became stern: "What happened?"
After all, Yan'er is the daughter of the Bai family. Now Madam Sun claims that she needs to stay in the Lan family, so what must have happened in the Bai family.
"Mrs. Qibing, when my servants went to pick up Miss Bai just now, the head of the Bai family claimed that since the eldest lady married her as a wife, the Lan family was an outsider to Miss Bai! If she insisted on coming to the Bai family, she would expel her from the house!"
The eldest lady that Madam Sun mentioned was Lan Yue. Before Lan Yue got married, she always called her that she could not change it now.
"What a Bai Zhenxiang!" Mrs. Lan was furious, "If there were no Lan family back then, he would have achieved what he has today? Now that he has a hard wing, he would say that my Lan family is an outsider? It would be better if he didn't want this kind of ungrateful father!"
After saying this, Mrs. Lan held Bai Yan's hand again and said kindly: "Yan'er, you will live in my Lan family from now on. The Bai family doesn't want you, and my grandmother will raise you! As long as my grandmother still has a bite of food, she will never starve you!"
"Grandma, I will stay at the Lan family for a few days, but I won't stay forever," Bai Yan saw that Mrs. Lan wanted to say something again, and hurriedly interjected, "Don't worry, I live in Liuhuo Country. If I really need help, I will come to the Lan family to find you."
Mrs. Lan patted Bai Yan's back of her hand and sighed softly: "Your temper is as stubborn as your grandfather. I won't force you. If you have time, it's enough to come back and see me."
Bai Yan was confused about these relatives in the past. She only knew that Bai Xiao was good to her, but now, after hearing the old lady's words, she realized how much did Bai Yan miss the previous one?
"I heard that my grandfather is sick, but now he is getting better?" Bai Yan thought of Mr. Lan's question and asked with a frown.
"It's still the same," Mrs. Lan's eyes darkened, "Yan'er, I'll take you to see your grandfather. In fact, over the years, your grandfather has often talked about you, for fear that you will suffer grievances outside."
Although Mr. Lan has a stubborn temper, he even claimed that after Bai Yan left without saying goodbye, she was no longer the granddaughter of the Lan family!
But for the past six years, the old man has never forgotten her, especially today. After hearing that Bai Yan came back, he immediately asked her to send someone to pick him up.
