"Yes."
Nanxin's hands were sweating nervously as he grabbed onto the corner of Qiao Mubei's clothes.
Uncle Qiao looked at Old Master Qiao, "Father, there's one more thing. Nanxin's grandfather, Elder Su, passed away this morning at eight o'clock."
That sentence: "Elder Su, he passed away this morning at eight o'clock." When Nanxin's mind was revolving, his dull yet anxious eyes pulled at the corner of Qiao Mubei's clothes, "Uncle, when I came back yesterday, I was with someone else. He was still fine at that time. "How could this be? It's only been one night …"
Halfway through, Nanxin's voice was choked with sobs. Her grandfather had been very close to her in name.
The moment he entered the living room, it was because of the words of the Uncle Qiao that Nanxin had started to be afraid, and now that he had even informed the Elder Su of his passing, everything that the Uncle Qiao had said today was bad news to Nanxin.
Qiao Mubei pulled Nanxin's hand, and wrapped a warm big palm around her cold hands to comfort her.
Seeing Nan Cheng like this, Old Master Qiao comforted him, "Little girl, don't be sad. When a person gets old, this day will come. Presumably, your grandfather didn't want to see you sad, so he endured until you left. "
Nanxin knew that she was not the most important person to Elder Su. The thing that worried him the most was his Su Family, which had already been broken into pieces and he was struggling to maintain.
"Yes." Nanxin stopped crying and sniffed.
"You went to see your grandfather. What did your grandfather say?" the warm voice of the Old Master Qiao asked in concern.
Nanxin thought back to it, "Grandfather is very happy that I am able to marry into Qiao Family. He also asked me to bring a picture of him for you, grandpa. "
The first part was true, and the second part was that she wanted to curry favor with Old Master Qiao.
Old Master Qiao was a little excited, "It's rare, he gave it to me to draw." He stopped and turned his face to look at Qiao Mubei, "Jin, Nanxin just came back, and you're not letting her rest properly, what do you want her to do?"
Originally, Nanxin was worried that she would come late and give his grandfather a bad impression. Now, when her grandfather said this, it instead caused her to feel slightly guilty.
Aunt Qiao sat at the side and spoke up, "Mubei, bring Nanxin upstairs to rest. I'll call you when it's time for dinner. "
"Yes."
Nanxin, who was being embraced by Qiao Mubei, had his eyes turn completely red. He looked at Old Master Qiao and apologized deeply, "I made Grandfather, Father and Mother worry."
Such a well-behaved child couldn't find anything wrong with his work. Old Master Qiao felt even more pain in his heart, and when he looked at her, there was also a slight trace of gentleness on his face.
Normally, when he saw that Uncle Qiao was able to leave his sight, Nanxin would not stay for long. This time, it wasn't that she didn't want to hurry upstairs, but her legs felt a little numb from the fright.
This way, she didn't take a step, but gave the impression that she was overly sad.
In the room, Qiao Mubei held her shoulders and looked at her: "What happened to you?"
Nanxin gripped the corner of his clothes as cold sweat flowed down from his palms. The sadness afterwards was because of the death of Elder Su. Then what was the fear before this?
Nanxin trembled, her lips moved, her voice stuck in her throat. She didn't know how much her uncle would have to pay in order to repay this debt of gratitude. She really couldn't accept all of it with a clear conscience.
"Uncle, the abuse of power in Qiao Family that dad mentioned just now really scared me." Nanxin said slowly after a long while.
She didn't know if she should stop her uncle's showdown. If she did, then her hard-earned happiness would be exposed. She was unwilling to personally say such words.
Qiao Mubei lifted her up with his big palm and placed her on his lap, his ears and temples rubbing together, "With me here, these rumors will not be able to shake my Qiao Family."
Was it really just gossip?
"Uncle, my dad sends me a text every week to tell me where he is now. I don't want him to worry about me and send me a text every week. I know Mom divorced him, and he's sad and needs time to relax. " Nanxin's expression was indifferent, as if he was talking to himself.
It was Dad's number, but the person who sent the text must be Uncle.
When Nanxin suddenly brought up Zhang Bonian's topic, Qiao Mubei also noticed it. He looked up, but his gentle voice was very soft, "Then reply with a text message, tell daddy not to send you another text message."
Suddenly, Nanxin smiled beautifully, "Alright." She wrapped her hands around her uncle's neck and kissed him. Uncle, you won't reject me, right? "
"Yes." Qiao Mubei replied.
Nanxin was still worried, he took out the red book and said, "Uncle, we'll throw away the marriage certificate. That way, we'll be together forever and won't leave."
"Yes." He allowed Nanxin to do whatever he wanted, so that the obedient girl wouldn't be unhappy in the slightest.
Nanxin laughed until his fangs were revealed, the corners of his eyes revealed a proud look, "Am I very smart?"
He was very stupid!
"Yes, very smart." Qiao Mubei praised her.
Outside, Qiao Nianyu knocked on the door. Nanxin went to open the door.
Qiao Nianyu pulled Nanxin, and said in an extremely dissatisfied tone, "Why didn't you come find me when you got home? If you didn't marry my brother, you would call me sister-in-law all day to please me. Now, when you get home, you didn't even notify me. "
"Nanxin just arrived home not long ago. She's a little tired today." The moment Qiao Mubei opened his mouth, he immediately ordered them to leave.
How can this be? Qiao Nianyu scoffed, "I think it is because she can't rest while she remains in her room."
These words were obviously meant to say that someone would continue to make Nanxin more tired, and would get even more tired in the room. That could only be because he was doing some sort of exercise …
Nanxin's skin was thick, he did not have any integrity to begin with, but hearing Qiao Nianyu's words, it was impossible for him to listen to his uncle! He immediately smiled ingratiatingly, "Little sister-in-law, if uncle can make me more tired, I would be happy to do so. I really just got home. By the car, my coccyx and femur are hurting. "
From Su Family to Qiao Family, it would at most take two hours to get to the car. Even sitting all the way to the coccyx was painful?
Knowing Nanxin's thoughts, Qiao Nianyu rolled his eyes at her, "How thin are you? can sit to the coccyx? "
These words were truly not convincing at all.
Nanxin was fully aware that the Qiao's member s were not easy to fool, and looked at his sister-in-law with extremely pious eyes, "Excuse me, sister-in-law, why are you looking for me in such a hurry?"
"Come into my room, I'll talk to you slowly." Qiao Nianyu dragged Nanxin and headed towards the house.
Qiao Nianyu saw Qiao Mubei's warning eyes, she received it, and after comprehending it, she decided to hint at Nanxin in the dark.
The moment Nanxin entered Qiao Nianyu's room, he smelt a fragrance, and all kinds of decorations were very strange. This was her first time entering her sister-in-law's room.
Qiao Nianyu took the bottles and threw them to Nanxin, "These are all types of perfume, they all say that they're women who smell good. You don't have the slightest hint of a woman on you. "
Nanxin looked at the pile of perfume, puzzled.
Qiao Nianyu continued to take a few things and threw it at her, "After you take a bath, put these on yourself. You have a little love? If you don't even know what's good for you, you won't be able to catch my big brother. "
Nanxin looked at the pile of unknown objects, puzzled.
Qiao Nianyu frowned, "Next is underwear, I can't bear to retort about the underwear you chose. "He has no eyes at all."
Nanxin said with a sullen face, "Little sister-in-law, so it turns out you are not this satisfied with me."
"I am not dissatisfied with you. There were too many women who knew how to seduce men better than you. If I don't teach you, who will? "
What the little sister-in-law said was all true, but Nanxin was completely terrified, "Little sister-in-law, you mean that my uncle will be taken away by another woman?"
Just how serious was this matter that Nanxin only had his uncle left, how could he allow such a thing to happen?
Qiao Nianyu coughed and cleared his throat, "I am not saying that my big brother will be taken away by others, I am just asking you to be on guard against me." She was tactfully reminding Nanxin that there might be other women appearing. Her brother did not want her to tell Nanxin about Liu Xu's matter, so she was afraid that Liu Xu would succeed.
Nanxin looked at Qiao Nianyu with tears of gratitude, "Alright, I will listen to you."
Her sister-in-law was too considerate for her sake.
Qiao Nianyu stared at Nanxin, opening and closing her lips, hesitating to speak. After a long while, she uttered, "I heard my mother say that your grandfather had passed away. The dead cannot be revived. The living must be captured. Otherwise, if you end up alone in the future, you can only blame yourself for not being able to live up to your expectations. "
Being lectured by her sister-in-law like this, she calmed herself down.
Nanxin didn't have any regrets towards her grandfather, at least she went to see him.
"Little sister-in-law, you know so much, don't you think a lot of men would bow down to you?" Nanxin acted like a good student as he looked at her with admiration.
Facing such a passionate gaze, Qiao Nianyu felt slightly awkward, "I know so much, but I've never used it before."
Nanxin thought about it, that was true, for a woman with Qiao Family, being taught that when it comes to matters between men and women, she would definitely be very reserved. Thinking about the last time she saw Mu Yun, Qiao Nianyu told her that she had a crush on him.
Seeing that her sister-in-law had taught her so much, she gave her a gift point. "Little sister-in-law, isn't there a saying called 'female chasseur's veil'? Be less reserved and more proactive. I'm a good example. I don't have the slightest bit of reservation. I just pounce on my uncle the moment I see him. "
