In the end, Guo Miao chose three bracelets. Two of them were decorated with spring colors and were meant to be given to Tong Xin and the old lady while one was for Tong Xin’s child.
After choosing the bracelets, Guo Miao hailed a taxi to the Tong family’s old residence.
The Tong family’s old residence was located in a secret mountain in the north of the capital. It was surrounded by lush forests and archaic wooden buildings. It looked very beautiful.
The car stopped at the entrance. The butler was already waiting for Guo Miao.
“Miss Guo Miao? Mr. Tong Pei asked me to wait for you here.”
Guo Miao nodded and looked up at the gate wrapped in vines. Behind the gate was a long road leading to the old mansion in the distance.
It was as expected of a wealthy family. In a place like the capital where every inch of land was worth money, they were able to build such a long passageway.
“Don’t worry. The car will pick you up immediately. We won’t let our guests walk through this section of the road.” The butler seemed to have noticed Guo Miao’s confusion.
Guo Miao nodded.
Soon, the car arrived.
Guo Miao got into the car and entered the Tongs’ mansion.
She did not notice that a car had just stopped at the entrance of the Tong family’s old residence. Tong Ling and Su Ning were sitting in the car.
Su Ning noticed Guo Miao in front of her. She frowned and asked, “Why is this woman here?”
Tong Ling also noticed her. “Could she really be the person that Fifth Uncle invited to our family banquet? I’ve never heard of Fifth Uncle having a relationship with any woman.”
Tong Ling was also somewhat confused.
Her uncle had always been a mysterious person who did not get close to women. How could he invite a girl who looked like a high school student to their family banquet?
“Who cares who she is? She looks like a poor girl who likes to seduce men at such a young age. You have to warn Uncle and Grandma Zeng about this woman who must be greedy for your family’s wealth.”
Tong Ling nodded.
The two of them arrived at the banquet venue suspiciously.
This banquet was Old Madam Tong’s birthday party, and everything was decorated according to her favorite style.
There were simple tables and chairs in the hall, and the dishes were all light Jiangnan cuisine.
Old Madam Tong was from Jiangnan and liked these sweet and refreshing foods.
Guo Miao arrived at the banquet hall and saw Tong Pei standing beside the old lady.
Tong Pei was dressed very simply today. The simple black suit outlined his figure. Although he was thin, he did not appear weak.
Guo Miao was stunned.
Tong Pei also noticed her and walked over.
“Why are you only here now?” Tong Pei said. He noticed what Guo Miao was holding in her hand. “Why did you bring a gift?”
“It’s Grandma Tong’s birthday after all, so I should prepare a gift.” Guo Miao smiled.
She carried the bag and walked to the old lady’s side with Tong Pei.
Grandma Tong had just recovered from her illness, thus she was still wearing thick mink fur in the early spring. Although she looked a little weak, the dignified air around her was not reduced in the slightest.
Grandma Tong had also been a soldier back then and had once achieved first-class merit.
“Grandma, this is Guo Miao whom I told you about,” Tong Pei introduced.
Grandma Tong looked at Guo Miao and reached out her hand, gesturing for her to come closer.
“You’re a sweet child. I haven’t thanked you for helping my granddaughter treat her illness. Tong Xin, that girl, hasn’t had a child of her own for so many years, so we were all very worried. Thanks to you, the couple didn’t have to regret it for the rest of their lives.”
Hearing Old Madam Tong’s words, Guo Miao’s anxious heart relaxed. It seemed that her prescription was working.
“How’s Tong Xin’s condition now?” Guo Miao asked.
“That child is already a month pregnant. Her body is fragile, so she is currently recuperating in the old residence.” At the mention of her granddaughter, the smile on Old Madam Tong’s face deepened.
She originally thought that Tong Xin would never bear a child. Who knew that a divine doctor would appear from the sky?
“This is the birthday gift I specially chose for you. This is a bracelet with spring colors. I hope you don’t mind.” Guo Miao handed over the bag in her hand..
