"Aunt Xu, have you finished eating?"

Lu Qingli was afraid that she would forget about eating while looking at the child, hence she quickly reminded her.

Old Lady Xu laughed and waved, "I had dinner a long time ago, but I was bored at home so I came downstairs to sit and chat whenever I saw a few of my old sisters. There has never been a single thief in our area before. You are really lucky today to have met someone who doesn't know how to live. "

As he spoke, the Old Lady Xu spat in the direction of the door, as if he was snorting disdainfully at the lawlessness of this matter.

Lu Qingli quickly ate two mouthfuls of noodles, but the BOBO was restless. It was as if it was gluttonous, and its small hands only wanted to touch the greasy table.

Lu Qingli quickly put down her chopsticks and wiped off the BOBO's hands with a tissue. Seeing her flustered, Old Lady Xu carefully asked, "How about I carry the child for you?"

Lu Qingli was not at ease initially, but seeing that Old Lady Xu was also a kind and warm-hearted person, she nodded her head and let Aunt Xu hug him.

At the other table, the few aunties were almost done eating, they were all looking at Old Lady Xu and laughing.

"Be careful! The child is like tofu! "

Originally, Lu Qingli did not realise it either, but after hearing the laughter of the others, she noticed that Old Lady Xu did not seem to be good at carrying children.

Old Lady Xu looked at Lu Qingli and laughed awkwardly, "It's been so many years since I last took care of a child, why don't you carry me?"

However, Lu Qingli was not in a hurry to carry the BOBO back. Perhaps it was because she saw the trace of unwillingness in Old Lady Xu's eyes, "Auntie Xu, can I trouble you to hug it a little longer? I need to hurry up and finish it right away!

With that, Lu Qingli started to eat in big bites, but accidentally made him cough at the wall.

Even the aunt at the other table couldn't bear to watch this any longer and hurriedly patted her back. "Slow down, slow down, we'll teach her to carry the child."

Lu Qingli once again felt the passion of the neighborhood. She used a tissue to wipe off the tears that had flowed down her face, whether it was because she was coughing or because she was moved.

Everyone said that being alone in a foreign land meant being a stranger, but Lu Qingli, a foreigner, didn't feel strange in Guangzhou but instead felt touched and moved by the locals' warmth and benevolence.

With everyone's help, Lu Qingli finally settled the dinner. Old Lady Xu laughed as she placed the BOBO back into her arms, then slowly said, "It's really been too long since I hugged a child, and it's also because I did this when I was hugging my son. Counting it, dozens of years have passed."

This was why Lu Qingli knew that Old Lady Xu did not have a grandson. Maybe it was because of this that the elderly liked children even more at this age.

"Aunt Xu, I'd like to ask, where are the supermarkets for mother and child located nearby?"

It wasn't easy for Lu Qingli to meet someone she could trust, so she quickly took the opportunity to ask before the old lady said her goodbyes.

"You want to buy something for your child?" Old Lady Xu looked at the well-behaved BOBO and asked with a smile.

Lu Qingli nodded.

The Old Lady Xu suddenly became excited, "There's a very big building nearby. I'll go with you. It's not convenient for you to be alone with your child in a foreign land. "

"No need, no need. Sorry for troubling you!" Lu Qingli hurriedly shook her head. Just for dinner, Old Lady Xu had already helped her twice.

"You don't believe an old man like me who doesn't know how to bring children?"

The Old Lady Xu deliberately tilted her face to look at Lu Qingli, which made Lu Qingli think that she had a cute personality, and decided to not say any kind words. She really needed someone to help him, so she asked the Old Lady Xu to lead the way, and it was hard for her to accompany him.

The two of them had a cheerful personality. They chatted and laughed along the way. Old Lady Xu was originally from Hubei, but after living in Guangzhou with her son for 16 years, she became a citizen of half of Guangzhou.

Old Lady Xu admired Lu Qingli for bringing her child to Beijing. She said that the last time she went to Beijing, she was impulsive and willful, learning from the young people to travel as they pleased, so she flew to Beijing, and as a result, was sent to the hospital.

After listening to this experience, Lu Qingli felt that the Old Lady Xu was even more interesting.

"Aren't you worried about your son if you run around like that?"

Lu Qingli looked at Old Lady Xu with a smile, but Old Lady Xu's face became gloomy.

"I went to Beijing because my son died in a car accident half a year ago." Old Lady Xu's voice became soft and weak, causing Lu Qingli's heart to palpitate from listening.

"Sorry, sorry …" Lu Qingli was most afraid to talk about other people's thoughts. She had experienced it before, but this time, she didn't have the strength to look.

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Old Lady Xu's face once again revealed a smile, "It's all in the past, I can't be sad forever, otherwise, my son won't be able to trust me."

The old lady's attitude made Lu Qingli admire her greatly, "You are just a child?"

"Yes, that stinking brat."

Faintly seeing the tears shining out of the corner of Old Lady Xu's eyes, Lu Qingli quickly changed the topic, "I still have a lot of things to buy, luckily you are here."

Old Lady Xu secretly wiped away her tears and looked at Lu Qingli: "Oh yes, where are you staying now?"

Lu Qingli recalled the name of the inn, then truthfully told Old Lady Xu.

"Are you staying in a hotel with your children? How inconvenient that would be. " The Old Lady Xu was confused. She reached out her hand to help Lu Qingli up, afraid that she wouldn't notice the stairs leading to the Mother and Child supermarket.

Accompanied by Old Lady Xu, Lu Qingli very quickly found everything, but she was only able to carry a big cart full of them, and Old Lady Xu did not allow her to carry them herself. She was afraid that she would accidentally let the BOBO knock on it, and its power made others think that she was Lu Qingli's mother-in-law.

Speaking of which, Lu Qingli had yet to experience any kind of motherly love from Xi Muyao's mother. Even if she gave birth to a BOBO, Mrs. Xi had always had the airs of a noble woman, and basically did not care about BOBO at all.

"Come here, let me raise all of your movements."

After finishing the shopping, the Old Lady Xu walked to the side of the road and hailed a car. Although she was only a short distance away from the hotel, the wind by the Pearl River was strong, so she could not let her children blow the cold wind. Then, she carefully watched as Lu Qingli got into the car, and followed him in.

"It's fine, I'll go get it from the hotel. Don't worry about it."

At the same time, Lu Qingli wanted to stop Old Lady Xu, but Old Lady Xu refused to get off the carriage. This enthusiasm was exactly the same as the first time Lu Qingli saw her, where she kept on talking to Lu Qingli.

However, thinking that the old lady was alone, perhaps because she had nothing to do at home, she was so enthusiastic about every single detail of her life. Thinking of how she had refused every single time and was afraid of hurting her kindness, she quickly shut up and let the old lady go.

The Old Lady Xu was still not willing to leave after sending it to the entrance of the hotel, so she insisted on accompanying Lu Qingli upstairs.

Lu Qingli could only allow the old lady to continue releasing her passion.

Accompanying Lu Qingli to her room, the old lady looked at the surroundings and asked softly, "Is staying here for the night expensive?"

Lu Qingli didn't need to lie, and casually reported the price of 400 yuan per night.

Old Lady Xu immediately smacked her lips, saying that she really did not know how to live. What good was it to keep the money for her children, it was all wasted on lodging.

Lu Qingli did not reply, but took out his things and placed them all away, so that she would not rummage through them again when she wanted to use them.

When she was packing up to the point where she was half done, Old Lady Xu suddenly pulled Lu Qingli's hand, her eyes filled with sincerity, "Qingli, if you don't mind, you can stay at my place, right?"

Lu Qingli could not accept the Old Granny's kind intentions anymore. Of course she did not mind, it was just that Old Lady Xu had helped her too much and she had no way to repay the kindness.

Old Lady Xu saw that Lu Qingli was very calm and courteous, she thought of something and said, "How about this, I will rent you the guest room. Five hundred every month for a water supply."

Before coming to Guangzhou, Lu Qingli had a better understanding of the house prices in Guangzhou. Forget about the price of the new house, Old Lady Xu's house was still by the Pearl River, and looking at the old lady's clothes, she would definitely not be too bad.

Lu Qingli was still thinking about how she could reject the offer, but Old Lady Xu was actually being rude and unreasonable, "Ask the child, does the child want to stay at my place?"

Old Lady Xu purposely made a fool of herself to make BOBO laugh. BOBO was not afraid of living, and seeing how fun Old Lady Xu was, it began to giggle and babble as if it wanted to say something. Old Lady Xu was extremely happy.

"Look, the child said he wanted to stay at my place! Don't be shy, just treat it as accompanying a widowed old lady like me, okay? "

The Old Lady Xu thought clearly and quickly finished up the arrangements, "Then I'll come pick you up in the morning. Now, I'll go back to the guest room and change the bed sheets and blanket first … Rest early! "

The old lady quickly left in a happy mood. Lu Qingli told her to be careful along the way, but the old lady waved at her happily, telling her to quickly look at the BOBO.

"Darling, why do you think our luck is so good?"

Lu Qingli took the newly bought Body Refining Liquid and gave it a bath. The little handsome brother sat there obediently and listened to what Lu Qingli said.

After finishing her work on the BOBO and coaxing him to sleep, Lu Qingli finally had time to take a proper bath.

After she quieted down, she suddenly remembered the picture Wang Yuanfang sent her in the morning and slightly frowned.

This was probably her last batch of bombs.

Lu Qingli stretched out under the hot water, her heart felt a lot more relaxed. She absolutely believed in Mu Wenshu. Adding to the results of the investigations from a few days ago, Lu Qingli was almost certain that the child was Xi Muyao's.

However, she didn't want to tell Mu Wenshu her whereabouts. They both needed some time to calm down and settle down.

The next morning, Lu Qingli was still in her dreams when she heard the doorbell Ding Ling. She was still in a daze, causing the BOB to wake up first as she patted Lu Qingli's face with her little palm.

Lu Qingli wiped her face with the wet towel beside her pillow and then got up to open the door.

"He still hasn't woken up?" The Old Lady Xu looked much more energetic than the day before. She was still holding her breakfast and entered the room smiling.

The curious baby BOBO also wanted to know who had come. However, when it crawled to the side of the bed, Lu Qingli was so scared that she instantly woke up.

"You become naughty as soon as you wake up." Lu Qingli pretended to be angry to scare BOBO, BOBO frowned, her small eyes filled with innocence, as she eagerly asked Old Lady Xu for help.

Old Lady Xu was overjoyed, "This child is really clever!"

Lu Qingli also laughed, "That's right, scum is big!"

With Old Lady Xu around, Lu Qingli could brush her teeth much more easily. She did not need to busy herself with other things while worrying about the BOBO.

When she finished washing up, she found that the old lady had quickly packed all her luggage.

Lu Qingli did not blame the elderly for disrespecting her privacy. She knew that she had good intentions towards her and quickly thanked her. Then, she stuffed the small items like the towel and toothbrush into her backpack.
