This sudden proposal left Jiang Yuzhu slightly stunned. Turning to the Pei family matriarch, her eyes shimmered with gratitude and warmth, "Grandma, hearing you say this, we're of course delighted. But..." Her voice carried a hint of hesitation.
Yet the old Madam Pei waved her hand, chuckling heartily, "Ah, what 'buts'? A home needs to be lively with lots of people. If you stay, our Pei family's New Year will be even more complete. You needn't worry; we have everything prepared at home."
A whirlwind of emotions surged in Jiang Yuzhu's heart. Madam Pei's offer made her feel incredibly warm and needed—the sudden familial affection was something she had come to cherish since getting married.
However, deep down, she harbored another responsibility and concern—her aunt, who had always been there to support and listen to her. The thought of her aunt spending the New Year alone filled her with a twinge of guilt.
