Chapter 951: Great-aunt Mo (2)
The moment Gu Qingyao entered, Grandma Mo’s angry expression relaxed. She said to the old lady who was sitting on the sofa, “This is Yao Yao, Beihan’s wife. Beihan is away on business, and Second Son’s wife is also away and unable to come over.”
Grandma Mo introduced Gu Qingyao. “Yao Yao, this is your great-aunt and your Uncle Zhou Haibin. This is your Aunt Zhou Furong.”
“And these are their children.”
Grandma Mo had no intention of introducing the children by name. Gu Qingyao could clearly discern Grandma Mo’s attitude.
She looked at them and politely greeted them, “Great-aunt, Uncle, Aunt, how do you do!”
This great-aunt was no longer young, and she looked as if she had a hard life. Her face was wrinkled, and her eyes were sunken. She glared at Gu Qingyao fiercely. Gu Qingyao could tell that this was a mean old woman.
Her eldest son was already so old, but still lecherous. He had been staring at her since she entered the room.
As for her daughter, Gu Qingyao could tell that she was not a nice person either.
They exchanged greetings and Grandma Mo said, “Yao Yao! Your great-aunt and her family will be staying here for a few days. Arrange guest rooms for them and ask the servants to prepare some clothes and daily necessities.”
After she finished speaking, Grandma Mo’s lips twitched as if she wanted to say something else, but she fell silent in the end.
She really wanted to leave, but she was embarrassed to just hand this mess over to Gu Qingyao.
Gu Qingyao quickly discerned Grandma Mo’s thoughts and smiled, “Very well, Grandma. I will make the arrangements. You already work very hard taking care of Grandfather – you should go check on him!”
Grandma Mo looked at Gu Qingyao guiltily. Gu Qingyao’s bright, dark eyes smiled at hers. She still looked like a submissive young girl, but the gleam in her eye suddenly caused Grandma Mo to calm down.
She stood up and patted Gu Qingyao’s hand. “Sorry for the trouble!”
Grandma Mo left to check on the Old Master.
Great-aunt looked sullen but did not say anything.
Gu Qingyao looked at these people expressionlessly.
Stay for a few days, arrange for guest rooms…
Grandma Mo had made her wishes clear!
The old woman was getting on in years, and many things had happened in the Mo family recently. Mo Huai’s family had been forced to leave, but Mo Huai and Mo Yunhao were still her son and grandson. Their downfall had saddened her.
Then the Old Master had suffered a stroke. She was an old woman, and these events had obviously caused her to feel dispirited. If not for Gu Qingyao to take care of them, who knows what state the old woman would be in!
Gu Qingyao understood. She would take care of these difficult people!
Gu Qingyao smiled and said, “Great-aunt, the guest rooms are in the backyard. Please go and rest! I’ll arrange for clothing to be sent to you. It’s almost noon. Everyone can rest before lunch. Is there anything that you don’t eat?”
The old woman’s name was Mo Qingqing. When she heard that, she looked at Gu Qingyao and asked sternly, “Are you Beihan’s wife?”
“Yes!”
“Where are Mo Huai and his family?”
“They’re staying by themselves for now.”
“I heard that my older brother is in poor health, and there is a new master of the Mo family. Is it true that that child, Beihan, is now in charge of the Mo family affairs?”
“Yes!”
The old woman grew even more stern when she heard that. “Uhm! In that case, you must take good care of Beihan. You’re a woman. Now that you are married, your husband is your first priority. Our Mo family is a great family and is very strict.
“Now that you’re married, you must pay attention to your dressing. Look at yourself. Your dress is so fancy. How inappropriate.”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
