Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

”Grandpa, I can’t accept this.” Gu Lingling said, ”This is your favorite thing, I can’t take it.”

The item wasn’t very expensive, just something Mr. Zhou liked in his early years, so he kept it all these years. Its value wasn’t as high as some of his other collections.

But its significance was different.

”If I’m giving it to you, then take it.” Mr. Zhou said angrily, ”What belongs to Grandpa is yours too.”

He originally intended to give it to her then and there, but upon thinking it over, he decided to keep it until Gu Lingling’s wedding when it would hold more meaning.

”Alright, now let’s see what gift Old Man Qian prepared for you outside?” Mr. Zhou said with a smile, looking at Old Man Qian.

”You old coot, are you trying to outsmart me?” Old Man Qian feigned anger, saying, ”I’m not like you, with lots of wealth.”

”Pah, who doesn’t know you’re rich? Hurry up.” Mr. Zhou chided.

”Lingling, today you’ve found your family and recognized the Su Family. Grandpa congratulates you.” Old Man Qian waved his hand, and someone brought over a box. ”I don’t have much to give you, but this is something I came across by chance. I hope you like it.”

It was a collection of Yan Zhenqing’s calligraphy.

Authentic works.

And quite complete.

When Gu Lingling saw the calligraphy, her eyes were glued to it.

”Thank you, Grandpa Qian.” She said with an unreserved smile to Old Man Qian.

Su Changsheng felt both happy and a bit uneasy.

Happy that his granddaughter had these two old friends watching over her, but uneasy about them vying for her affection.

However, after another thought, no matter what, he was her rightful grandfather.

”Girl, your Grandpa Zhou and Grandpa Qian have shown their care, so I can’t lag behind.” Su Changsheng said with a smile, ”I originally planned to give you this a bit later, but I’ll give it to you now.”

”Take good care of these things.” Su Changsheng handed a leather envelope to Gu Lingling, ”Inside are some of Grandpa’s savings over the years.”

Most of it was given to Gu Lingling. As for the other grandsons, they’re boys — they should support themselves and not focus on his belongings.

Though it seemed like just a little, the thick leather packet probably had a lot inside.

Moreover, Su Changsheng’s assets were openly acknowledged, even big bosses knew of them.

Gu Lingling didn’t know what to say.

It was supposed to be a family reunion banquet, but it turned into a gift-receiving event for her.

What does it mean to ”receive gifts till your hands are full”?

Now Gu Lingling fully understood.

Not only Su Changsheng and the Su Family, but from the eldest uncle and aunt to Su Xiaowu, who just returned from abroad, all brought gifts for Gu Lingling and Yao Jingsong.

Of course, for the Su Family, which favored daughters over sons, Yao Jingsong’s gifts were more casual.

Gu Lingling’s gifts were much more carefully chosen and exquisite.

Looking at the pile of items on the table, Gu Lingling felt a bit overwhelmed.

”Haha, it seems someone’s going to have a headache.” Old Man Qian said with a laugh to Yang Yunhai, ”With such a rich dowry for Lingling, Yunhai, you’d better work hard in the future, otherwise, this bride won’t be easy to marry.”

”I have to work hard indeed.” Wang Shuyun, the future mother-in-law, added to the dowry, ”Otherwise, we’ll find Lingling someone even better.”

Yang Yunhai, ”...”

Is this my real mom?

She seems unclear about who’s on which side.

Dad? Kindly take your wife home.

”May I ask, who is Gu Lingling?”
