When Anran and Su Yicheng arrived, Lin Xiaofen and Gu Hengwen were still busy in the kitchen. Seeing them return, Lin Xiaofen sent Gu Hengwen to go out and sit with Su Yicheng, while Anran volunteered to help her mother in the kitchen. Of course, they would be having a private mother-and-daughter conversation in the meantime.
After seeing that Gu Hengwen and Su Yicheng were busy doing something on the sofa, Lin Xiaofen closed the kitchen door and asked her daughter in a whisper, "Anran, does he treat you well?" As a mother, her number one concern was not whether her daughter married up the social ladder. Instead, the most important thing was how her son-in-law treated her daughter. The only way to ascertain whether or not this marriage was the right choice was how he treated her. Otherwise, no matter how good a family he was from, the marriage wouldn't be a happy one if he didn't care about her.
