Chapter 699: Worries (2)_2

In this big compound, it wasn't only Old Master Xiao who envied the Situ family and the bustle of activity at the Loo family's home. Sons, daughters-in-law, grandsons, and granddaughters would all come home whenever they had time, which was quite unlike their own ungrateful children, who were never to be seen unless it was a major event or an important holiday.

All those old masters and madams knew that the lively atmosphere at the Situ and Loo families was largely thanks to their cherished gem, Situ Xin. Each one of them wished desperately that she was part of their family.

Previously, those old masters and madams in the compound with grandsons around Situ Xin's age had all calculated on getting their grandsons to marry Situ Xin. But before they could make a move, Xiao Muli had beaten them to it. Now Old Master Xiao, whenever he went out, received an earful from the other old masters and madams. However, even as Old Master Xiao was scolded, the smile on his face grew even wider.
