Stared at by Madam Shi's sharp gaze, Song Mingkang smiled guiltily.

"How could I question my aunt's judgment? But Xiaoyi is indeed more worthy of Xiaoye than her. She is just an orphan who was kicked out of the Ye family. Who knows what kind of people her biological parents are?"

"We at least know Xiaoyi inside and out. When you chose your son's and grandson's daughters-in-law, you also looked at their family background and good genes."

"Who knows what's in her genes? If she has any genetic disease, it won't be good for the Shi family to have more children."

Gu Jinlan couldn't help but sneer.

Okay, okay, it has escalated to a genetic attack.

When she raised her eyes, she saw Shi Ye looking at her. She quickly regained her composure and turned away from him.

Apart from asking her to stay just now, Shi Ye didn't say another word, as if he was just watching a show from the sidelines, let alone speaking up to defend her.

She was indeed the granddaughter-in-law chosen by Grandma Shi, and only Grandma Shi knew how to love her.

"Bang!"

Madam Shi slammed the table heavily, "I'm not dead yet, and you dare to slander Lan Lan in front of me!"

Song Mingkang trembled with fear.

Madam Shi said righteously, "Lan Lan is already married to Xiao Ye, there is no way I can let them get divorced! The only thing our Shi family can give Shu Yi is money, as for status, don't even think about it! As long as I am alive, Gu Jin Lan will always be my granddaughter-in-law, and no one can replace her!"

Seeing that the old lady favored her so much, Gu Jinlan felt touched and sad.

There is a high probability that she will disappoint Grandma Shi.

Even if she wants to live a good life with Shi Ye now, Shi Ye may not have this intention.

Song Mingkang looked embarrassed and turned to look at Shu Yi who was wiping tears beside him.

In fact, he expected his aunt to have such an attitude.

He had just learned not long ago that Shi Ye was already married, and it was arranged by his aunt. He knew that it would not be easy to get Shi Ye and Gu Jinlan to divorce.

Shu Yi blinked away her tears and hinted at Song Mingkang with her eyes.

She and Song Mingkang had agreed last night that if things really didn't work out, there was a second plan.

However, under the pressure from Old Madam Shi, Song Mingkang seemed to have forgotten it.

Shu Yi reminded him, "Dad, since my aunt likes Gu Jinlan so much, you shouldn't embarrass her for my sake. It's okay if they don't get divorced..."

Hearing this, Song Mingkang suddenly had an idea and finally remembered the "Plan 2" that Shu Yi had planned last night as a second-best option.

"Ahem!" Song Mingkang cleared his throat. "Aunt, since Xiaoyi has said so, I have thought of a way to have the best of both worlds."

Madam Shi frowned impatiently, "What's the solution?"

Song Mingkang said: "Let Xiaoye marry Xiaoyi as well, anyway..."

"Nonsense!" Old Madam Shi interrupted Song Mingkang in a deep voice, "The Shi family doesn't have the tradition of marrying multiple wives like the Song family! As long as I am in the Shi family, this kind of thing will never be allowed to happen!"

The old lady at that time hated polygamy.

Because her father married several wives, the family was in chaos all the time.

The ancestors of the Song family were once royal relatives, and in the early years they were much more prosperous than the Shi family.

It was because of his father’s inaction that the wives of several families fought openly and secretly every day, causing a fire in the backyard and making the family a mess, which led to the decline of the Song family.

Song Mingkang said: "I know that my aunt doesn't like this style, but the situation is special now..."

"You love Ranran so much. Ranran has been asking for her mother since she was a child. Although Gu Jinlan has now made up for the maternal love that Ranran lacks, she is not her biological mother after all."

"Are you really willing to separate Ranran from his biological mother? Besides, the fact that Ranran doesn't have a biological mother will affect his whole life."

"Ranran will take over the Shiguang Group in the future. As the helmsman of a business empire, his biological mother is of unknown origin. There will always be people stabbing him in the back, and they may even become weapons to attack him."

Song Mingkang's words appealed to both emotion and reason.

This is what Shu Yi taught him.

He was still carrying it on his back on the way here.

Old Madam Shi was silent. What Song Mingkang said obviously touched her heart.

Apart from Shi Ye, the younger generation she loves the most is Shi Xingran.

Song Mingkang's words suddenly reminded her that when Ranran was three years old and cried for his mother, she solemnly promised Ranran that she would find his mother for him.

And over the years, she had indeed encountered several times that other members of the Shi family said unpleasant things behind Ranran's back because the identity of her biological mother was unknown.

We are all family, not to mention the people outside.

Madam Shi frowned and looked at Shu Yi.

Why Shu Yi?

It would be great if Ranran’s biological mother was Lanlan. She would wake up smiling in her dreams.

Seeing that the old lady seemed to have wavered, Shu Yi quickly struck while the iron was hot.

"Don't worry, auntie. As long as you agree to let me stay with Ranran, I will definitely get along well with Miss Gu. I won't compete with her for anything! I only want Ranran! I..."

As she spoke, Shu Yi choked up and looked heartbroken. "I've always dreamed of Ranran over the years. I dreamed that she called me mom..."

"..." The old lady opened her mouth slightly in silence.

In fact, she understood very well how it felt to miss her son.

She also often dreamed of Xiaoye's father, hoping that he would come back to see her.

At this time, Shi Ye finally spoke, "What do you think?"

He looked at Gu Jinlan with a playful look in his eyes, with a faint smile at the corner of his lips.

“……”Gu Jinlan was stunned.

Madam Shi looked at Shi Ye in surprise, "Xiao Ye, you..."

"Grandma, I'm asking Lanlan. She is a member of this family and she has to express her opinion." Shi Ye stared at Gu Jinlan with his deep eyes.

Gu Jinlan frowned, not understanding what was wrong with him.

How could he have the nerve to ask her what she thought?

Does he really want to marry two wives?

Gu Jinlan was about to answer, but Song Mingkang spoke first: "Aunt, Xiaoye, if you agree, I have another suggestion."

Song Mingkang didn't want to listen to Gu Jinlan's opinion at all and looked down on Gu Jinlan from the bottom of his heart.

"Anyway, Xiaoye and Gu Jinlan haven't held their wedding yet, and their marriage hasn't been made public."

"Then let's announce Xiaoye and Xiaoyi's marriage first, and let Xiaoyi be the wife of the first house, the mistress of this family. After all, Xiaoyi is Ranran's biological mother."

"If Xiaoyi is allowed to be the younger one, Ranran will not be able to hold his head up in front of others in the future."

"Anyway, Gu Jinlan is an orphan without a father or a mother, and she hasn't given birth to a child for Xiaoye yet, so it won't affect her."

After noticing that both Madam Shi and Shi Ye had softened a bit, Song Mingkang spoke with more confidence.

As soon as he finished speaking, a strong voice suddenly came from outside: "Who said my daughter is an orphan without a father or a mother?!"
