BXBX NOVEL Chapter 457 - Study Hard? Of Course, I Already Said I Would Earn Money To Support Young Aunt
Jiang Yingqiu immediately responded when Mo Beihan brought up this matter. “That’s right! We cannot decide this matter so readily. That way, others will think it’s easy for us to raise children. In the future, when they are unable to support their children or don’t want them anymore, they will just abandon them on our doorstep. If we don’t adopt them, they’ll ask why we’re so hardhearted as to refuse one more, since we have already taken in so many children.
“Once the precedent is set, others will follow. We must not allow this to happen.”
Jiang Yingqiu said to Jiang Xun, “Jiang Xun! You’re older and more mature. Do you understand the situation? We will register your accounts later. Now we must let everyone know that we are hesitant. You must make a good show in the Mo house. The important thing is that you must perform for others, do you understand?
“Don’t worry, Grandma will certainly adopt you, but we must not let others think that it’s such an easy matter. Do you understand?”
Jiang Xun and Jiang Ping heaved a sigh of relief and nodded hurriedly. “Grandma, we understand. We will put up a good show.”
Mu Mu and Jiang Jing also understood some of it. “What about us? Do we have to participate too?”
Mo Beihan thought for a while and said, “You must participate a little. Mu Mu, you must be very reluctant to leave your older cousin and plead for him with your grandma. And you must let others see it.”
Mu Mu nodded his small head. “Youngest Uncle, I understand!”
Mo Beihan was somewhat shocked. “You do? You understand?”
Mu Mu nodded. “Yes!”
Jiang Xun immediately said, “Mu Mu is very clever. When he was living with the Gu family recently, Elder Sister Gu…”
Jiang Xun paused at this point!
“This… in the future… do I also address Elder Sister Gu as… Young Aunt?”
Mu Mu and Jiang Jing were Mo Beihan’s nephews, and he was Mu Mu’s older cousin, so they were in the same generation. Of course, they were Mo Beihan’s juniors.
So if Gu Qingyao was engaged to Mo Beihan, should he address her as Aunt?
Jiang Xun’s expression was indescribable. Gu Qingyao was just a few years older than him…
Mo Beihan glanced at him, as if he knew what Jiang Xun was thinking. He laughed, “That’s right, you should refer to her as Young Aunt. It has nothing to do with age. You are in different generations. You not only have to address Yao Yao as Young Aunt, but even Gu Fangting is also your aunt. And Little Six and Little Nine, who are in the Gu family, are your uncles!”
Jiang Xun: “…”
Uncle?
Little Nine was just a toddler!
Gu Fangting had always addressed him as “Elder Brother Jiang Xun…”
Jiang Xun helplessly looked at his younger cousins. He had no choice. He was their junior.
“All right! I understand!”
“This… Mu Mu is very intelligent. During his recent stay with the Gu family, Elder Sister Gu… Young Aunt taught him to read and write. Mu Mu learnt very fast.”
Mo Beihan looked at Mu Mu. “Is that so? How many words can Mu Mu read?”
Mu Mu hurriedly replied, “I can read and write more than three hundred characters. I know the meaning of more than a hundred idioms, but don’t know how to write them. I can recite fifty classic poems, and can add and subtract within fifty.”
Mo Beihan’s hand paused. “Did you learn all these recently?”
Mu Mu nodded. “Uhm! That was when I was living with the Gu family, and later on, when you brought Older Cousin away. It was not more than twenty days.”
Mo Beihan: “…”
Everyone: “…”
This child was a genius!
Mo Beihan was delighted. He carried Mu Mu and put him on his lap. “Not bad, not bad. Our Mu Mu is very smart. In the future, you must study hard, then when you grow up, you will be very capable.”
Mu Mu immediately smiled obediently. “I know, I know. I will certainly study hard. I’ve already said that when I grow up, I will earn money to support Young Aunt.”
Mo Beihan’s expression darkened!
Everyone: “…”
Hehe…
