Chapter 98 - Chapter 98 - Some doubts
In the blink of an eye, the winter quickly passed and now it was the spring of the second year.
Shang Guan Chu Yue had always been staying at Mo Xiao Yan's house, and often helped out in the shop. With an extra helper, Lee's was naturally happy, so she treated Shang Guan Chu Yue very well.
Mo Xiao Yan's courtyard was no longer being rented because Lee's said that the weather was gradually getting warmer. It was better to return after closing the door every day and save some silver.
However, Lee's had always been this meticulous with his calculations. He would try his best not to spend the money that he did not spend.
In this period of time, Mo Xiao Yan was still living in the shop, but Shang Guan Chu Yue was living in his small courtyard. Because the bed that was built in the shop was rather crowded, Shang Guan Chu Yue decided to stay in the small courtyard, and after a while, she and Mo Xiao Yan would return home to sleep together.
At night, just as Mo Xiao Yan was preparing to close the door to rest, a few people came over. Mo Xiao Yan had never seen them, and only recognized one person, who was the old granny that Mo Xiao Yan had helped twice in the past. He was from Su Jin Xuan's residence, and it had been a long time since he had last seen her.
Looking at the few people that walked in from outside, Mo Xiao Yan thought in his heart, why is this old granny looking for him? I don't seem to know her very well, do I? However, they would definitely talk about what it was later.
"Little girl, we meet again." The old man said to Mo Xiao Yan after he sat down in his seat.
"May I ask what you are looking for me for?" Mo Xiao Yan went straight to the point.
"Hehe, little lady, you are an intelligent person and a straightforward person. I will first ask you a few questions." The old man said with a smile.
Mo Xiao Yan didn't know why she had come here, but at this moment, he was a little nervous in his heart, but he was a little curious about the reason.
"Yes, please speak." Mo Xiao Yan was a little apprehensive at the moment.
"Little girl, you're not engaged yet, are you?" Although they had heard of it, they still wanted to personally hear what Mo Xiao Yan had to say.
"Yeah, I'm not engaged yet." Mo Xiao Yan said truthfully.
He thought to himself, why is this old granny asking me about these things? Did he want to introduce someone to her? Although his mental age was a little over twenty, this body's age was still only twelve. To a modern soul like Mo Xiao Yan, it was still a little early.
"What do you think of my Young Master?" The old man spoke in a rather tactful tone, while at the same time, he observed Mo Xiao Yan.
"Who's your Young Master?" Mo Xiao Yan asked without even thinking.
"Little girl, you've met her." The old man reminded him.
"Is it Su Jin Xuan?" Although he had already thought about it, he still wanted to confirm it.
"Yes." It was obvious that he was somewhat unhappy with Mo Xiao Yan calling him by his full name, but he did not display it too obviously, and still replied with a nod of his head.
"What do you mean?" Mo Xiao Yan wanted to know what exactly it meant.
"We'll visit you in a few days." The old man did not directly answer Mo Xiao Yan's question.
"Alright then." Since the other party didn't want to talk about it, he didn't care too much about it. He might as well not ask. At that time, he could just wait and see what the situation was like.
"Then, we'll head back first. Little Miss, you should rest earlier."
After they left, Mo Xiao Yan closed the door, went to wash up, and went to rest.
He kept tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. He couldn't figure out why those people were here, and they had to go to his house. He seemed to be very serious.
The next morning, Shang Guan Chu Yue came over first and even brought Mo Xiao Yan breakfast. After being together with him for such a long time, Mo Xiao Yan and Shang Guan Chu Yue's relationship was already as sisters, and there were no longer any restrictions like in the beginning.
Just as he finished breakfast, his family members came over. In this period of time, Mo Lin Yu had been at home accompanying him, and now that Shang Guan Chu Yue was helping out in the shop, it was fortunate that she was busy coming over.
Just by looking at Shang Guan Chu Yue's identity, one could tell that she was not an ordinary person just by looking at the clothes she wore. Normal people would not be able to afford such expensive materials.
Furthermore, their relationship with Chen Zi Mo and the others didn't seem to be that bad. This Shang Guan Chu Yue definitely wasn't a simple person either.
Mo Xiao Yan still did not know, and did not ask them. There were some things that he should not know too much about, and treat them well, but there was one thing that Mo Xiao Yan was certain of. Although he did not know who they were, his character was still trustworthy.
Shang Guan Chu Yue was rather nimble, but the skin on her hands were very delicate. Just by looking at it, one could tell that she was not someone who worked very hard.
But Shang Guan Chu Yue was also very diligent, and she was a good person, so everyone in the family liked her.
Now that his home had been repaired, Mo Xiao Yan's little goal in his heart had been achieved. He wanted to open a Embroidery Shop for Mo Xiao Xia, as he had almost saved up all the silver, when he had time, he would go to the town to rent a shop first.
He did not know anything about embroidery. Once he rented the shop, he would leave it to Mo Xiao Xia.
When the afternoon was over, Lee's came out from the kitchen and said: "Xiao Yan, I will go out to buy some dishes. Your sister-in-law will be born soon, I need to buy some good food to nourish my body."
"En, alright then. Mother, you can go right now. I'll just watch here." Only Lee's and Mo Xiao Yan were proficient in the kitchen, but Mo Xiao Xia could only help out. The taste of the meat she roasted was always a little worse, so she helped out outside.
Lee's only returned after an hour, and he brought a lot of things with him. Ever since Liu Yue Mei got pregnant, Lee's had also been generous with his things, and never mistreated this daughter-in-law of his.
Lee's put down the things in his hands and said: "Xiao Yan, will you come back with us today?"
"Mother, I have nothing to do at home, so I might as well stay in the shop." Mo Xiao Yan said with a smile.
"Look, mom bought so many dishes. I'll cook a good meal for you guys tonight." Lee's said happily.
"Sure." Mo Xiao Yan hadn't returned during this time and stayed at the shop. He hadn't eaten the food made by the Lee's for a while, so he agreed.
"Oh right, Chu Yue should come back with us, right?" Lee's also wanted to ask Shang Guan Chu Yue to come along, and it just so happened that she could make a good meal today. However, she still had to ask Shang Guan Chu Yue if she wanted to go and talk about the matter again.
"Alright, then I won't be polite, Aunt." To be able to get on good terms with Mo Xiao Yan's family, Shang Guan Chu Yue was also very happy in his heart. Only after coming here did he feel like he was home.
