Gu Ya stepped forward and handed the jar of wine in his hand to Mrs. Shen, saying, "Mother, I brought this jar of wine from the Gu Family for father!"
"Son-in-law, we are all family, there's no need to bring wine! This time is enough; you mustn't be so formal next time!" Mrs. Shen said with a smile as she accepted the wine Gu Ya had brought.
Although Mrs. Shen told Gu Ya not to be formal, deep down, she was quite satisfied with her son-in-law's actions. If the son-in-law remembered to bring wine, it meant he understood propriety and also that he cared about his wife. Otherwise, why would Gu Ya remember to bring wine to pay respects to Yunjin's father?
After accepting the wine, Mrs. Shen once again instructed Gu Ya to have a meal in the kitchen. Su Yunjin followed Gu Ya to the kitchen, while a happy Mrs. Shen took the wine to her husband, Su Zhongshi.
