Old Mrs. Chen listened to Old Mrs. Song's words, and her heart was stirred. Old Mrs. Song wouldn't say such things lightly.
The two old ladies had met several times and were already familiar with each other. Many words were not hidden from one another. Old Mrs. Chen felt that Old Mrs. Song saying this in front of her was in fact seeking her advice.
Perhaps as a rural village woman, she might not have much to offer, but she could at least help ease Old Mrs. Song's worries: "Do you have a favored granddaughter-in-law in mind?"
Old Mrs. Song smiled, neither confirming nor denying.
Xie Liangchen, sitting beside them, suddenly felt a wave of tension. She didn't know if Song Xian had mentioned this to his family. What Song Xian had previously said to her meant waiting for her to think it through, so he probably wouldn't inform the elders, right?
