Alright, once Xiao Jianming consented, in the Xiao family, not just Grandma Xiao but nearly everyone could be excited and spurred into action for this cause.
Of the three daughters of the Xiao family, Xiao Shuju had recently, for reasons unknown, grown closer to her second sister and her family. Because the eldest, Xiao Shumei, and the youngest, Xiao Shuzhu, were both abroad and couldn't rush back to help arrange the old lady's birthday celebration, it was naturally expected that the local Xiao sisters, Xiao Shulan and Xiao Shuju, would need to help Grandma Xiao.
Because of this, the two sisters had the opportunity to offer suggestions regarding some of Grandma Xiao's decisions about her birthday celebration.
