Chapter 1408: Chapter 1412: Talking Nonsense Again!
The two knelt before the senior master and lifted the teacups above their heads: “Grandpa, please have some tea.”
“Very good!” Senior Master Gu’s face was all smiles as he took the teacup from Mi Sheng first, took a sip, and then handed her a big red envelope.
With a bashful smile, Mi Sheng said, “Thank you, Grandpa.”
Senior Master Gu, still chuckling, then took Qiao Zui’s tea, sipped it too, and likewise gave Qiao Zui a red packet: “Get along well with Xiao Mi, and have a safe pregnancy and childbirth.”
“Absolutely, Grandpa! And Grandpa, you should also take care of yourself, stay healthy, and wait for our future grandchild to grow up so he can also show his filial piety to you!” Qiao Zui seriously kowtowed three times to the senior master before helping Mi Sheng stand up.
Qiao Zui poured two more cups of tea, one for each of them, and they knelt before Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei.
Ye Xingbei was startled and quickly stood up to help them.
Gu Junzhu held her arm and pulled her back to his side, “It’s fine, I forgot to tell you, this is our family tradition.”
Ye Xingbei: “…”
Qiao Zui is even older than she is.
Being knelt to by Qiao Zui made her feel quite uncomfortable.
As usual, Mi Sheng offered the tea first. Ye Xingbei hurriedly took the cup, had a sip, and then awkwardly… she, she didn’t prepare any red envelopes!
Just as her face reddened with embarrassment, Gu Junzhu handed her two thick red envelopes to pass on.
Ye Xingbei stood up, helped Mi Sheng up, then stuffed the red envelopes into her hand and helped her sit down on the sofa, “Be careful not to stress the baby.”
With a pursed lip smile, Mi Sheng said, “The baby has been very stable, Aunt, it won’t get stressed.”
After offering tea to Gu Junzhu and bowing three times with respect, Qiao Zui also received two large red envelopes.
He stood up, sat next to Mi Sheng, and passed the red envelopes to her, “Keep them well, our little uncle’s red envelopes are not easy to come by.”
Mi Sheng glared at him playfully, “You’re talking nonsense again!”
She now understood why, although both were nephews of the same little uncle, Yun Jue was favored and Qiao Zui was always picked on.
Mainly because Qiao Zui’s mouth was too loose!
In front of Gu Junzhu, Yun Jue was just a sweet innocent, constantly addressing little uncle affectionately, like a big, silly dog, especially honest and clingy.
Qiao Zui, on the other hand, was always irreverent, saying exactly what little uncle didn’t want to hear.
No wonder he wasn’t the favored one with such a personality.
Qiao Zui laughed as he put an arm around her shoulders, “Just joking, just joking. Are you hungry? Senior Gu, is the meal ready?”
“It’s ready,” Senior Gu stood up, “Let’s eat!”
The family headed to the dining room.
During the meal, Senior Gu looked at everyone, brimming with delight, and the smile never left his face.
Since Mi Sheng was pregnant, the honeymoon was off.
Fortunately, the two met while traveling in Country Y.
Later, they didn’t miss out on visiting the attractions in Feng City; they consoled themselves, thinking of their earlier travels as a pre-honeymoon, and now they were just taking leisurely strolls nearby: out during the day and back at night to sleep in their own home—comfortable, affectionate, and pretty good.
For five days, they led such an enviable couple’s life.
Except for the third day when Qiao Zui accompanied Mi Sheng to her return visit to the Mi Family for one day, for the other four days, the couple spent the daytime sightseeing and evenings dining with Senior Gu, then going to sleep in their own room.
Both felt that this was more comfortable than going on a round-the-world honeymoon trip.
On the evening of the fifth day, Mi Sheng received a call from Situ Jinse.
