Mo Beihan had not expected his mother to say such a thing.
To him, his mother had suffered terribly when she was young. Her husband had abandoned her and her family had mocked her instead of helping her.
His maternal grandmother was her mother, but she had been the one to jeer at her the most viciously. All these years, if his uncle had not helped his mother because they were siblings, his mother might have cut off her ties with her family.
She was now old and had many ailments. It had not been easy for her to carry on until her son grew up and succeeded. It was only natural that she depended on him.
Now that she heard he had given so much money to Yao Yao without telling her, he thought she would be disappointed, angry, and jealous!
But to his surprise, his mother did not think that way at all!
That was great!
Mo Beihan felt that if his mother knew how things stood, and his wife was compliant, he would have reached the pinnacle of his life!
Mo Beihan immediately earnestly promised her, “Mother, don’t worry. I will certainly treat her well and make sure she is happy every day. Even if I raise so many children, she won’t be angry or grumble. She will even give me children in the future. All right?”
Jiang Yingqiu glanced at Mo Beihan and laughed. “As long as your own little family prospers, and you can take care of us, then I have no more worries in this life!”
Mo Beihan laughed and replied. “Yes, yes, I will certainly be able to do that. I will marry Yao Yao, and we will have a blissful life.”
Jiang Yingqiu was in a good mood. Although she had found out that her older son had not died then, in the end, he had not survived. But she remembered that he had met a girl who had treated him sincerely, not like his first wife, who had immediately run off with someone else the moment she received news of his death. She had even abandoned her children.
This second wife had even taken in another two children, but had died of an illness. At least she seemed to have been a kind girl.
Her eldest son had not misjudged her.
Now she had another two grandchildren and her younger son’s wife had not turned tail. Her son had so much money that he could support them. She felt that Heaven had been kind to her.
Mo Beihan spoke to Jiang Yingqiu for a while before summoning all the children. While they were gone, Jiang Xun and his younger brother, Jiang Ping, had been terribly nervous. They had not expected Grandma Mo to also take them in.
They were just unsure of whether the Gu family would agree to it, and what would happen in the end.
Now the six children formed a line before Jiang Yingqiu and Mo Beihan. Jiang Xun and Jiang Ping were the most nervous.
Jiang Yingqiu did not speak. She let Mo Beihan handle it. She was old, so she might as well hand this debt of gratitude over to Mo Beihan. In the future, the children would have to depend on Mo Beihan. Of course, they should remember Mo Beihan’s kindness.
Mo Beihan looked at Mo Chengrui and Mo Chengxu. “Chengrui, Little Xu, actually you already knew, right? Now I am formally telling you that Jiang Jing and Mu Mu are your brothers. You have the same father, but different mothers.”
Mo Beihan carefully explained what had happened to his older brother. Mo Chengrui and Mo Chengxu were surprised to find out that their father had not died then, but had given them another two younger brothers.
Mo Beihan said, “Little Jing, Mu Mu, from now on, you are no longer orphans. You belong to the Mo family. This used to be your father’s home. I am your younger uncle, and she is your grandmother!”
