"My mother's family?" Su Zimu blinked and looked at Mr. Jiang, not knowing who the mother's family he was referring to.

Jiang Huaizhou frowned, glanced at Su Zimu, and said to Old Man Jiang: "Grandpa, why didn't you tell me in advance? I wasn't prepared."

Mr. Jiang smiled mysteriously, "Don't worry, Grandpa has prepared everything for you."

Jiang Huahai and Yuan Qingmei looked at each other, then turned back to the sofa to drink tea and arrange flowers.

For some reason, Su Zimu felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in his heart.

Her family?

Her parents were gone, and later even her grandmother, who had always depended on her, passed away. The only one left on the Su family side was...

Just as she was daydreaming, the housekeeper walked in quickly, "Master, the person you invited is here."

Su Zimu walked forward a few steps and saw a man with slightly gray hair and firm steps walking in, accompanied by two women.

Su Zimu held his breath unconsciously and stayed where he was, watching Old Man Jiang and Jiang Huaizhou go out to greet them.

After a few polite greetings, the old man asked everyone to take a seat.

When Su Xiangan passed by Su Zimu, he paused for a few seconds, his eyes full of pity, "Mumu, long time no see."

"Uncle." Su Zimu called timidly.

Su Xiangan nodded silently and walked towards the dining table.

Cai Xianglan and Su Ziya looked around along the way, and when they passed by her, they did not stop at all and simply ignored her existence.

"Why are your hands so cold? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Jiang Huaizhou walked at the end and saw everything. Seeing that she was still there, he walked forward and gently held her hand.

Su Zimu never talked to Jiang Huaizhou about her relationship with Su Xiangan's family, and it seemed that he had never asked her about her relatives or her social relationships.

"I'm fine." Su Zimu smiled faintly at him.

The two of them sat down together hand in hand.

Seeing that everyone had taken their seats, Mr. Jiang smiled and said to Su Xiangan beside him, "Mr. Su, I'm glad that you and your family are here. Can I say a few words on behalf of the Jiang family?"

Su Xiangan nodded politely, "Thank you for the invitation, Mr. Jiang. You go in."

Jiang Cheng nodded, glanced at everyone, and then smiled and said, "Let me say a few words. First of all, welcome Mr. Su and his family to be our guests. From now on, we will be relatives and a family."

Su Xiangan smiled and nodded, Su Ziya and Cai Xianglan also had smiles on their faces.

"Secondly, I'm really sorry to ask Mr. Su to make this trip. It should be us, the men, who should take the initiative to visit. It's really troublesome for you to accommodate an old man like me." Grandpa Jiang said as he bowed slightly.

Su Xiangan stood up quickly and said, "Grandpa, you are too polite. It is fate that our two families can sit together. It makes no difference who comes and who goes. It is the same, the same."

Jiang Huahai watched the two of them interacting, humming in his heart, but not showing it on his face. He had always looked down on Su Zimu, and had never thought that she would become his daughter-in-law.

They are not a good match at all.

"It is a special fate that two children can be together. I just don't know if you have any requirements or requests for the bride price?" Grandpa Jiang asked Su Xiangan with a smile.

Su Xiangan had a faint smile on his face. He glanced at the slightly embarrassed Su Zimu, and then at Jiang Huaizhou beside her. "Logically speaking, it's not my uncle's turn to worry about Mu Mu's marriage. But her parents are gone, and as an uncle, I've watched this child grow up, so naturally I have a say."

"Mu Mu is a simple and kind child. Although our Su family is not as wealthy as your Jiang family, we can still be considered a scholarly family. As long as the two children truly love each other, I think we should just give up on the bad custom of bride price."

Su Xiangan said as he looked at Su Zimu, "Mumu, you are an adult now, you can make the decision on your own affairs, what do you think?"

"Yeah." Su Zimu nodded.

"Hey, how can we just let it go?" Jiang Cheng waved his hands, "Mu Mu is like my own granddaughter, I still have to give her what she deserves. What do you think, Huaizhou?"

Jiang Huaizhou and Su Zimu held hands, smiling, "Grandpa, little uncle, don't worry, I have already allocated half of the house and property under my name to Mumu."

"..."

Su Zimu: “???”

"When did it happen? How come I don't know?" Su Zimu asked in a low voice.

"Remember the agreement I asked you to sign?"

"Are you talking about the prenuptial agreement?" Su Zimu realized belatedly that she had not even read the contents of the agreement.

"Huaizhou, when did this happen?!" Jiang Huahai suddenly stood up, "Such a big thing, why didn't you discuss it with us?"

The smile on Jiang Huaizhou's face gradually disappeared, "I don't need to discuss my property with anyone."

"You..." Jiang Huahai was so angry that he slapped his chest.

"Huaizhou, your father didn't agree with you marrying this woman. Now, you are giving half of your property to her. Are you doing this on purpose to piss him off?" Yuan Qingmei supported Jiang Huahai and patted him on the back to help him calm down.

"It's not even your turn to speak here." Jiang Huaizhou's face became even colder.

Su Xiangan heard the conversation between the two people and probably knew what was going on. When he knew the background of the Jiang family, he was not optimistic about this marriage. After all, the difference in strength between the two families was too great. He was afraid that Su Zimu would be wronged if she married into the family. Therefore, before he came, he made up his mind to be neither humble nor arrogant.

Jiang Huaizhou generously gave half of his property to Su Zimu, which gave him peace of mind.

But Jiang Huahai's attitude...

The mansion is as deep as the sea.

"Alright!" Jiang Cheng raised his voice, "What are you doing? Are you making fun of yourself?"

Jiang Cheng looked around at the Jiang family members angrily, "Youchi, put your phone down, it's rude!"

Jiang Youchi didn't expect that Mr. Jiang suddenly called on him. He put the phone in his pocket in boredom. What did it have to do with him?

"Excuse me." Jiang Cheng smiled at Su Xiangan, "I think Huaizhou handled this matter reliably, and it should be done this way."

Su Xiangan remained silent. Things had already come to this point, and it would be hypocritical for him to say anything else.

Mr. Jiang mentioned the date of the engagement again and carefully asked for Su Xiangan's opinion.

Jiang Huahai couldn't get angry anymore. He had never taken care of Jiang Huaizhou since he was a child, and he didn't have any specific affairs in the Jiang family, so basically no one cared about his opinions.

The marriage was basically settled, and the two families had a pleasant chat.

"But marriage is a big deal after all. We should let the old lady take a look at these things that have been agreed upon to see if there is anything wrong." Su Xiangan said and looked at Su Zimu, "Mumu, don't you agree?"
