Everyone present was startled by Feng Sanmei's words. Wasn't she very particular about propriety and such? Usually she set such strict family rules, and yet, now she disregarded the order of seniority, offering Dugu Qianye a seat below her. Was this useless person really so favored by her?
Seeing everyone's expressions, Dugu Qianye said, "Great grandmother, we'll just sit here." And with that, she and Zi Xiao took seats on the outermost chairs, while Dugu Qianlin climbed onto her lap.
When everyone heard her address Feng Sanmei as great grandmother, they were taken aback again. Feng Sanmei had always had people call her great-great-grandmother, never allowing such intimate address as 'great grandmother' from others. Everyone felt a sudden sense of imbalance in their hearts.
Dugu Qianlin followed suit and called out, "Great grandmother, have you missed Little Qianlin? Little Qianlin has missed you a lot."
