“I never thought that I, Old Xu, would have such a day.”
As he packed up Xu Jiankong was in an extremely happy mood.
He even hummed a little tune on his lips.
The mother-in-law’s side was also overflowing with joy.
The man had made his mark.
When Xu Jiangong was included in the main clan tree as the head of the branch, the couple, together with Guangyang, were also very happy.
Together with the Guangyang Xu branch, the couple would be part of the top ten families.
I would love to see the jaws of those who had looked down on them and their uncles.
When she thought of meeting others in the future, she would be addressed as ‘Mrs Xu’.
Fang Hui was so excited that her body tingled.
Compared to her parents-in-law’s inner joy.
Lin Mo, on the other hand, had his doubts.
But most of the big families with big surnames had a disdainful attitude towards their branches.
They were so high and mighty that they only felt that their bloodline was noble.
The branches were just some wild seeds.
“Mom and Dad, why has this Kyoto Xu family suddenly approached you?”
Generally speaking, unless the branch had made some outstanding contribution to the clan.
Otherwise, even if they squeezed their heads, they wouldn’t even dream of being included in the main clan.
Hearing Lin Mo’s query.
Xu Jiangong excitedly explained.
“It’s a coincidence to say the least.
My grandfather was originally the brother of the previous family head.”
“Back then, there was some accident.
My grandfather then went into exile in the southern realm, and after that, he met my grandmother.
Then he started a family over in Guangyang.”
“All these years, they have been looking for our lineage.
You don’t know, Lin Mo, when they learned of my identity.”
“That attitude couldn’t have been more enthusiastic, they wanted to drag me straight to the ancestral home.”
As he said that, Xu Jiangong couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
And when he explained the time of it.
Lin Mo frowned slightly.
“I didn’t expect that there was such a story in this.
Fate is really ingenious.”
After a perfunctory sentence, Lin Mo had doubts in his heart though.
He always felt that there was something perverse about this, but seeing his parents-in-law so happy, he didn’t ask anything more.
And when he was about to go back to his room.
Mother-in-law instructed him again.
“Lin Mo, if there is nothing important today.
You should also get ready.
Over at the Xu family in the evening, they said that they are going to invite our family to a banquet at the Kyoto Hotel.”
After responding.
Lin Mo then also walked up to the lounge on the first floor.
“Wife, if there’s nothing to do in the next few days, let’s both go check out the house.
Something has been dragging on for a while now.”
“It’s also time to buy a house, living inside this shop all the time isn’t a problem!”
Xu Hanxia naturally agreed.
Her mother had been complaining about this for a long time.
She had always wanted to buy a house of her own in Kyoto.
It was difficult to get a place to buy a house in Kyoto, even if one had money.
Lin Mo had been busy with various things during this period of time.
Naturally, the purchase of a house had been put off.
However, now that it was a little bit empty, Lin Mo felt that it was time to buy a house.
Lin Mo also felt that it was time to get the matter done.
In the last two generations of the Song family’s main lineage, it could be said that the number of people had withered.
Elder Song, too, only had three sons.
The eldest, Song Yizhe, the second, Song Yixun, and the third, Song Will.
The second son, Song Yixun, was the main person in charge of the banquet for Xu Jiangong and his wife.
It was late afternoon.
By the time Lin Mo and his party arrived at the Grand Hotel.
Song Yixun had already prepared the banquet.
“Brother Jian Gong, you’ve finally arrived.
Come, come, sister-in-law you hurry and take your seats!”
Accompanied by his warm greeting.
The smiles on the two faces of Xu Jiankong and his wife became even brighter.
More or less, they looked at their son-in-law with a smug look.
Looking at this look on their two old men’s faces.
Lin Mo also shook his head with a bitter smile.
I didn’t expect that his parents-in-law were still childlike.
And he had become the only object of their bragging.
