410 There’s Candy Here
In contrast, Gu Lin was protecting his younger brother and sister while also observing the Imperial Duke Zhan carefully.
The three little children all felt that this man looked fierce, but the way he looked at them was especially gentle, as if he was looking at some precious treasure.
“Yes, father, mother, let me introduce you. This is my eldest son, Gu Lin.” Gu Qingxue introduced the three little cubs to the couple with a smile.
With Gu Qingxue by his side, Gu Lin bowed deeply to the couple. “Hello, grandfather and grandmother. My name is Gu Lin. This is my younger brother, Dumby, and my younger sister, Lingbao.
When Dumby and Lingbao saw the couple looking at them in surprise, they were no longer as nervous as before. They said in their childish voices, “Hello, grandpa. Hello, grandma.”
Imperial Duke Zhan was so happy that he wanted to grin from ear to ear. He was so excited that his eyebrows were dancing. “Good, you’re all good children. Well-behaved and sensible, and not afraid of stage fright. You’ll definitely have great achievements in the future.”
Madam Qiao poked Imperial Duke Zhan and reproached, “Don’t make such a loud noise. What if you scare them? Lil’ Lin, Dumby, Lingbao, quickly come to maternal grandmother. I have candy here.”
Gu Lin raised his head and looked at Gu Qingxue with a questioning gaze.
Gu Qingxue nodded and said softly, “Don’t be afraid, go.”
Gu Lin then walked toward Madam Qiao with his brother and sister.
Madam Qiao untied the small cloth bag she carried on her waist, held it in her hand, and opened it, revealing the sweet beans inside. “Eat, take as much as you want.”
“Thank you, grandmother.” Gu Lin shyly took three pieces of candy and gave them to his younger siblings.
The three little ones looked at the candy block curiously and realized that it was different from the malt candy they usually ate. It looked more crystal clear, and there seemed to be some sticky syrup inside.
The three little cubs had never seen such a good-looking candy before, and they could not wait to put the candy in their mouths.
Dumdy had never eaten such delicious candy, so he picked up one and also stuffed it into Madam Qiao’s mouth. “Grandmother, eat too. It’s so good.”
“And grandfather.” Lingbao even pick up a candy. She ran over to Imperial Duke Zhan with her short legs and stood on her tiptoes to reach out her hand, but there was still a long distance between her hand and Imperial Duke Zhan’s mouth.
Imperial Duke Zhan looked at Lingbao, standing on her tiptoes and trying her best, and his heart almost melted. He knelt down cooperatively and picked her up from the ground.
“Grandfather, ah…” When Lingbao spoke, she did not forget to open her little mouth.
The joy in Imperial Duke Zhan’s heart was indescribable. He opened his mouth and ate the candy, not forgetting to praise, “So delicious! The candy from my Lingbao is much more delicious than the average candy!”
Imperial Duke Zhan’s words immediately caused Lingbao to burst out in laughter. She immediately fell in love with Imperial Duke Zhan and reached out to hug his neck.
On the other hand, Gu Lin did not forget about his mother and gave her a piece of candy as well.
The more Madam Qiao looked at the three little ones, the more she liked them. She called Gu Qingxue and the three little ones to sit down, then asked the maidservants to bring them delicious milk tea and exquisite desserts.
The little ones all ate happily, making Imperial Duke Zhan and Madam Qiao smile brightly.
