Chapter 805: The Jiang Family (2)
Huo Ci hugged Xiaoqi tightly and smiled. “Elder Sister, I have a daughter and a grandson.”
Switching the target, Jiang Rong pointed her finger at Jiang Zhe’s nose and lectured him. “I’m talking about you. Look at Sixth Brother. He already has a daughter and a grandson now. When will you start a family? You’re already an adult. Can you not make us worry?”
Huo Ci, who was beside them, smiled gloatingly. There was finally a year when he would not be nagged during the New Year’s greetings. It felt a little refreshing.
What else could Jiang Zhe say? When his sister lectured him, he could only agree honestly. He could not talk back. He would be reprimanded by a group of queens at home. He could only pretend to give in.
Sixth Brother. Sixth Brother had not expected to gain a daughter and a grandson this year either. He had escaped a calamity.
Although he said that he hated Xiaoqi and was annoyed by Sheng Sheng every day, he was actually very happy inwardly. Just like now, look at how very proud he was.
Huo Ci was carrying Xiaoqi because it was like carrying a gold medal that freed him from listening to nagging. Even if they wanted to criticize him or say something, what would they say? That he wasn’t married? What did it matter that he wasn’t married? He had a pretty and sensible daughter, and even an adorable and delicate grandson. What did it matter if he got married?
Even if he wanted to get married now, they had to consider it carefully. If he found a stepmother for Sheng Sheng and a step-grandmother for Xiaoqi, would she treat the two of them badly?
Ling Sheng looked at her father, who was carrying Xiaoqi wherever he went. The smile on his handsome face bloomed like a flower. There was no need to mention how immensely proud he was looking, as though he was carrying a sword.
In particular, when the aunties of the Jiang Family were lecturing Fourth Uncle about the thousand-year-old unchanging problem that would be raised every Lunar New Year, he looked like he was watching a show blissfully and arrogantly.
She could even imagine that in the past years, her father had definitely not been willing to come to the Jiang Family. They were all elder sisters with the demeanor of queens. What could he do when the women were lecturing them? They could only listen attentively!
“Isn’t there still Fifth Brother?” Jiang Zhe felt helpless after being lectured. He ‘dragged’ Lu Yubai out again.
Before Ling Sheng could speak, she let out a low cough.
Huo Ci smiled, his eyes full of evil delight. Sorry, his mood lifted when he saw Jiang Zhe suffer. “Fourth Brother, your news is too outdated. Fifth Brother has a girlfriend now.”
Jiang Zhe grew silent. A mouthful of blood was stuck in his throat, and his expression turned terrible. He lowered his eyes slightly. Forget it, forget it. He would just listen quietly. What else could he do?
Sixth Brother wanted to watch him be taught a lesson on purpose. Look at him. Look at how happy he was. Was he that happy?
Huo Ci could tell him that he was really happy and felt invigorated. It was the kind of comfort one felt inside-out when one watched others being taught a lesson.
“Fifth Brother already has a girlfriend?” Second Sister Jiang Ran shouted and pointed at her younger brother. “Look at you. Hurry up. You’re the only one left among the three of you.”
Third Sister Jiang Ling said, “What’s the hurry? Isn’t there one? The lady chased him all the way home. Is that right, Fourth Brother?”
Jiang Zhe’s expression changed slightly, and he was a little annoyed now. She could joke about anything. “Third Sister, it’s nothing. I watched Yu’er grow up. Can you guys not be so gossip? What if the girl hears you?”
Huo Ci also remembered. “You mean that Qin Yu, who comes to find you every winter and summer vacation? That little girl has been pretty since she was young. She’s only two years older than my brat too. Fourth Brother, can you really lay your hand on her?”
Out of the blue, Jiang Zhe’s handsome face became serious. “Nonsense!”
