Even if the two elders were rich, these expenses were worse than scratching an itch for them.
However, there was no conflict between having money and spending money.
The other party had money, but there was no need for them to spend money on you.
Moreover, all these things were done with utmost care.
“This is the two elders’ love for you.” Butler Zhu smiled lovingly, “The two elders have long thought that you would definitely feel troubled. But if you treat them as outsiders, they will be angry. Their own child is so outstanding, they just want to show off.”
Tan Mo’s heart swelled. She smiled like a flower and nodded heavily.
Walking along the corridor in the front yard and passing through the garden, she finally saw the main hall of the old house.
She then saw the old man commanding someone to set up a pole a few steps away from the main hall entrance.
There were firecrackers tied to the pole.
“Great-grandfather, great-grandmother!” When Tan Mo saw him, she immediately pounced on the old man.
Hearing her address him like this, Wei Zhiqian felt a wave of frustration in his heart.
Did the little girl forget that their relationship was different now?
Usually, the little girl still called him “uncle”, but she had no intention of changing her address.
Although Wei Zhiqian wanted her to change her words, otherwise, if she went on a date with him, others would think that she was following her elders out to play.
They didn’t even treat him as her boyfriend.
But thinking about how the little girl had been calling him Uncle for twelve years, he was already used to it.
Moreover, in these twelve years, the two of them could be considered to be living together day and night.
Unlike other people’s relatives, they would only see each other occasionally.
The two of them basically saw each other every day.
In this way, Tan Mo had to call him “uncle” every time he spoke. He had to call him so many times a day. Think about the accumulation of these twelve years.
It had long become a habit that was engraved in his bones.
It was because of this that Wei zhiqian barely endured it and did not urge Tan Mo to change the way he addressed him.
He felt that if Tan Mo could not change it, then he could not change it.
He was actually used to hearing her call him “Little uncle”.
As long as the two of them were close, there was no need to delve into the way they addressed each other.
Therefore, Wei Zhiqian did not mention anything about Tan Mo changing the way he addressed him.
However, Tan Mo was just too used to it and not only did he not change the way he addressed him.
This time, he could not even change the way he addressed the two elders.
Now, calling him little uncle was just a code name.
When two people fell in love, they were already on the same level.
It wasn’t appropriate for Tan Mo to call the two elders great-grandfather and great-grandmother.
Wei Zhiqian looked at them with a stifled heart, but he immediately thought it through.
While everyone was in a good mood during dinner, he told Tan Mo about him and Tan Mo.
Tan Mo didn’t have to address her great-grandfather and great-grandmother.
Instead, he followed him and called them grandfather and grandmother.
It was something that he would change his mind soon anyway. He thought that he did not need this little bit of time.
“Oh!”The old man quickly caught Tan Mo who had thrown himself into his arms.
“Great-grandfather, what are you doing?” Tan Mo pointed at the hanging whip hanging on the pole.
“You have received such a high honor. Of course, our family will also be lively,”the old man said. “Although we are not allowed to release the whip now, we should keep a low profile and release the whip in our own courtyard to celebrate.”
Tan moxin said that such a big whip couldn’t be released in a low profile.
“We were just waiting for you to come. We’ll release it.” The old man rubbed his hands excitedly.
The old lady reminded him, “Don’t forget the Lion Dance Team.”
“Yes, yes, yes.” The old man asked Butler Zhu to pass on the message so that the lion dance team could start.
The old lady thought of it again. “Aiyo, if we knew this would happen, we would have waited at the door so that you two wouldn’t have to go out.”
“How could we ask you two to wait for us at the door?” Tan Wenci said with a smile. “We should have come in to pay our respects first.”
“We are all family. We don’t care about these things.”The old man waved his hand. “Let’s go and see the lion dance first. The lion dance will come all the way through the door in a while. When it’s over, we will release this whip.”
“You even arranged for Lion Dance!” Tan Mo was shocked.
She had only met married people in the neighborhood where the Tan family lived and called them the Lion Dance.
“Back then, when you had such an outstanding result in the college entrance examination, your great-grandfather wanted to call you the Lion Dance.”As everyone walked out, the old lady explained with a smile, “It’s just that it was too sudden. How could we have the time to invite them in in such a small amount of time?”
They had known that Tan Mo’s results were good, but no one had thought that he would be able to obtain such good results.
It was so good that there was no possibility for him to improve any further.
He had already gotten full marks, how could he improve any further?
“So, after that experience and lesson, when he knew that you were participating in the mathematics competition this time, your great-grandfather had already contacted the lion dance team in advance,” the old lady explained with a smile, “You were ranked first after you entered the competition. We never thought that your results in the finals would be bad. So, no matter what, we can use it.”
To invite the lion dance team and set a date, they had to pay the money.
Otherwise, if they made a verbal agreement, they would free up their time and reject other customers’ orders, but you didn’t want them. Wouldn’t that be a waste of their money?
Therefore, the old man had paid the deposit in advance.
If Tan Mo’s results weren’t ideal, he would have taken it as a waste of the deposit.
He would have taken it as a waste of the deposit.
He didn’t even mention this to Tan Mo.
However, Tan Mo had indeed lived up to his expectations.
His results were more than just good.
“I wasn’t prepared before, but now that I have experience, I can’t just casually celebrate, no matter what,” the old lady said.
Only then did the tan family understand why the old lady insisted on having them come over to celebrate.
The two elders had already prepared everything.
Not to mention the Tan family’s relatives, they were even more attentive than the Tan family themselves.
On the contrary, it made Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen feel guilty.
As Tan Mo’s parents, they hadn’t prepared as much as the two elders.
Xu Mingzhen dragged Tan Wenci along and fell behind a little. She whispered to Tan Wenci about what the old lady had told her on the phone, “It’s our negligence. Momo has always been doing very well, so we naturally thought that Momo would be able to do well no matter what he took. “We paid too much attention to it and unknowingly gave her a lot of pressure. “Moreover, since we were confident that Momo would be able to get good results, or even get first place, we didn’t think of preparing a plan to celebrate ahead of time. When the results were out, we were so flustered that we didn’t know how to celebrate.”
“On the other hand, the two elders sent red packets from house to house, gifts from the roadside, and even invited the lion dance team.” Xu Mingzhen blamed himself and felt guilty, “We were too careless. Outsiders always said that we doted on Momo the most, but we didn’t even do this little thing.”
Tan Wenci held Xu Mingzhen’s hand, “All these years, the Wei family has been too good to Mo Mo, causing me to become accustomed to laziness. I always feel that Momo has been doted on by millions of people, but I have forgotten that millions of people doted on Momo, yet we have given very little..”
