Chapter 512 - 512: Upright Lady and Gentleman
Yaoyao had yet to get used to his new name, but if Li Xiwu or Pei Jingzhou called him Yangui, he would react. However, the reaction was not as obvious as calling him Yaoyao.
Youyou ate the chestnuts and two peanuts. After eating, she continued to play with the snow. This time, Youyou pulled Yaoyao over. Yaoyao was not interested in playing with snow. That was the most boring thing. However, when Youyou wheedled, Yaoyao compromised. “Okay.”
“Oh yeah!” Youyou danced happily. The snow on the glove accidentally rubbed against Yaoyao!s body. Yaoyao was not angry and patted it clean with his hand.
Li Xiwu looked at this scene and felt especially warm. She turned to her grandmother and said, “Although Yaoyao has a mild personality, he’s completely different in front of Youyou.”
Guan Suling peeled a chestnut for Li Xiwu. “Of course. Youyou is his biological sister. Other than you and Jingzhou, Youyou is the closest person to Yaoyao in this world.’
Li Xiwu ate the chestnuts her grandmother had peeled for her with a gentle smile in her eyes. “That’s right.”
Guan Suling handed Li Xiwu two more peeled peanuts. “Come, eat the peanuts.”
seeing crus, Li Xiwu said gently, “Granarna, I’ll peel It myself. YOU can eat lt.”
“You dote on your children, so 1 naturally have to dote on my granddaughter. Everyone dotes on their own. Here, take this.” Guan Suling stuffed the peanuts into Li Xiwu’s hand. “Did you notice? Although the therapy has a certain effect, Youyou actually brought more healing to Yaoyao.”
That was undeniable.
Li Xiwu said, “Us adults can only understand him according to our thoughts. Yaoyao is also afraid of troubling us sometimes. His thoughts are too sensitive, and he often suppresses his thoughts at the bottom of his heart. However, he will tell Youyou without reservation. That’s a good thing.”
Guan Suling flipped through the oranges and persimmons on the iron net with her bamboo tweezers and said with a smile, “That’s right. Fortunately, with Youyou around, the relationship between the siblings is good. That’s better than anything.”
Li Xiwu turned to look in the direction of Yaoyao and Youyou.
Youyou stuffed the snow into Yaoyao’s hand. Yaoyao was not wearing gloves, but he did not despise the snow Youyou had given him. Instead, Youyou suddenly realized that Yaoyao was not wearing gloves and was afraid of freezing his hand. She quickly slapped away all the snow in Yaoyao’s hand.
After patting it clean, she still held Yaoyao’s hand and breathed, trying to warm it up. As she breathed, she said, “I’m sorry, Brother.”
Yaoyao shook his head. “I’m not cold.”
“But this freezes your hands.” Youyou let go of Yaoyao’s hand and turned to the servant beside her. “Auntie, can you help Yansheng get another pair of gloves? Yanshengs brother doesn’t have gloves yet. Thank
The servant’s heart almost melted when she called her auntie. She quickly replied, “Okay, I’ll get it now.”
The servant came and went quickly. She unwrapped a new pair of gloves and went forward to put them on Yaoyao. This pair of gloves was made of the same material as Youyou’s gloves. It was warm inside and waterproof outside.
Youyou reached out to Yaoyao and showed her gloves. “Brother, look. Yanshengs gloves are pink. Brother’s gloves are blue.”
Yaoyao said, “Yours look good.”
Youyou smiled until her teeth were visible and praised him back. “Brother’s gloves look good too.”
Guan Suling picked up the boiling teapot and refilled Li Xiwu’s teacup. The two of them were chatting happily when the butler walked over quickly.
“Matriarch, Miss Qiao is here.”
Guan Suling looked up at the sound. “Is it Qiao’er?”
The butler nodded. “Yes, Miss Qiao didn’t come alone today. She even brought an elder.’
“Elder…” Guan Suling saw through it but did not say anything. “The elder she brought here must be her little uncle. Hurry up and welcome them in.”
The butler nodded and turned to welcome them. Guan Suling looked at Li
Xivvu. “This girl hid it very well. If Dao Xi hadn’t come back and mentioned it to me the night before, I would have thought that he was her elder.”
Li Xiwu took a sip of tea. ‘Qiao Qiao and Mr. Shao aren’t very close either. There are some unspoken conflicts between them. Grandma, don’t mention her relationship with Mr. Shao in person later. Just pretend that you don’t know.”
Guan Suling understood. “Grandma understands.”
Qiao Qiao was much more dignified today. She walked obediently beside Shao Jingmo, like a lady nurtured by the daughter of an aristocratic family. She was very different from her usual image.
Her long hair wasn’t curled and fell loosely behind her back. She wore an oatmeal-colored cashmere coat with a white knitted skirt underneath. It was knee-length and matched with short white boots.
She looked exceptionally ladylike from head to toe.
Beside her, Shao Jingmo was wearing a black woolen coat. His tall figure was straight, and his cold face looked especially cold. On the other hand, the dark brown gift box in his hand made him look like a mortal.
The two of them walked together, and the scene was actually like a golden couple.
Guan Suling reached out and touched Li Xiwu’s arm. “Look, Qiao’er is walking with the person beside her. They look quite like a husband and wife.”
Li Xiwu didn’t think so at first, but when her grandmother said that, she took a closer look. “From the looks of it, they really look like husband and wife.”
In Li Xiwu’s opinion, the couple’s appearance was not that Qiao Qiao and Shao Jingmo were somewhat similar in temperament, but that they were compatible in temperament. Qiao Qiao was an upright lady, and Shao Jingmo was an upright gentleman. From the looks of it, they were indeed compatible.
Seeing that Qiao Qiao and Shao Jingmo were already approaching, Guan Suling gestured to Dao Xi. “Prepare a seat.”
Dao Xi moved forward to shift the seat.
“Grandma, I’m here again.” Qiao Qiao’s voice was sweet and soft. As soon as she came over, she greeted Guan Suling enthusiastically.
Guan Suling smiled at her. “You’re finally here. I thought you wouldn’t come today if you didn’t come yesterday.”
Qiao Qiao said, “How could that be? I told Xixi in advance that I would definitely come over today. Look, I shamelessly came to freeload again.”
“You’re still talking about freeloading. You only ate so little the last time you came. This time, you have to make up for last time.” As Guan Suling spoke, she looked at the man beside Qiao Qiao and asked, “This must be Qiao’er’s uncle, right?”
Shao Jingmo glanced sideways at Qiao Qiao.
Qiao Qiao’s scalp went numb. She explained to Matriarch MO with a dry smile,
“Grandma, he’s… he’s my… my…”
This was the first time Qiao Qiao had introduced her relationship with Shao Jingmo outside. It was inevitable that she couldn’t say it, especially since Shao Jingmo was originally her Little Uncle. She had forgotten all the introductions she had thought of on the way here.
Seeing that Qiao Qiao couldn’t tell him about their relationship for a long time, Shao Jingmo turned to look at Guan Suling and explained his identity casually. “Yes, I’m her uncle.”
Guan Suling had long known about their relationship, so she only smiled in an unspoken mutual understanding..
