Chapter 127 Third Miss of Xiao Family

Su Mo was very nervous right now and did not want to talk to Second Aunt or Second Brother at all. However, she could not follow Xiao Nanye all the time, so she could only nod her head and gaze after him with her pitiful eyes.

After Xiao Nanye went upstairs, only the three of them were left in the living room. Su Mo felt even more uncomfortable.

Xue Mei saw that she was a little uncomfortable and took the initiative to talk to her, "It's funny to say that. We are a family now, but this is the first time we meet."

Su Mo did not notice that she was talking about a family. She just answered her with a red face, "I should have visited you earlier."

Xue Mei seemed to be very interested in her. After chatting for a while, she asked her, "I still don't know where Miss Su's hometown is."

Su Mo replied, "I heard from my grandpa that our hometown is in the south. My grandpa moved to A City when he was still young."

She added, "Second Aunt, just call me Su Mo or Little Su."

After hearing her words, Xue Mei suddenly laughed and teased, "You call me Second Aunt quite smoothly. Then, I will call you Little Su. When did you get to know the Eldest Young Master?"

Su Mo thought to herself, "The Eldest Young Master she was talking about should be Xiao Nanye!"

Su Mo seriously thought about it and said, "I met Xiao Nanye six years ago."

The cause and effect of everything started six years ago.

Seeing that Su Mo was not lying, Xue Mei asked her again, "Since Nanye is willing to bring you back now, have you discussed when you plan to make it public?"

"Public?" Su Mo was a little confused, thinking to herself, "What should be made public?"

Seeing her like this, Xue Mei was unhappy. "Look, you are not willing to say it. We are a family after all. If you say it in advance, I will be prepared!"

Su Mo thought desperately, but she still did not understand what Xue Mei meant.

It was a pity that Xiao Nanye was not here. She, an outsider, felt really miserable facing Xiao Family. In the end, she could only push everything onto Young Master Xiao.

She only said that she had to listen to Xiao Nanye, which clearly showed who was in charge of the family!

Xue Mei smiled knowingly. "Such a big company is enough for Nanye to be busy. But it's not good to drag this out for too long. You should find a chance to talk to him."

Su Mo nodded in agreement, but she did not take it seriously.

Later, as she learned to be sharp, when she did not understand or know how to answer, she simply laughed foolishly.

If there was anything, she would push it onto Xiao Nanye. Anyway, if the sky collapsed, this master would be supporting it.

The more Su Mo was like this, the more curious Xue Mei was. Xue Mei thought to herself, "Apart from being a little younger and a little more beautiful, this girl is very ordinary in all aspects. I do not understand why Xiao Nanye would like her."

In Xue Mei's heart, she felt that Su Mo was not worthy of the Eldest Young Master of Xiao Family. On the contrary, Xiao Mufeng had been watching them chat with a smile all this time. It was not known what he was thinking.

When it was almost time to eat, Xiao Zhendong came down the stairs, followed by the Eldest Young Master of Xiao Family who was tall and big.

Xue Mei was a little puzzled, thinking to herself, "The temper of this grandfather and grandson has always been incompatible. It is strange that they could chat peacefully for so long today.

"What were they talking about when the door was closed in the study room?"

Seeing Xiao Zhendong coming downstairs, Xue Mei called, "Dad!"

Xiao Mufeng also got up and called out to his grandfather. Only Su Mo was half a beat slower. When they got close, she trembled and greeted him, “Grandfather.”

The dishes had already been served and the tableware had been placed. Only after Xiao Zhendong sat down did the others sit down in succession.

Aunt Liu walked over from the living room and asked Xiao Zhendong, "Miss Junwan hasn't arrived yet. Shall we wait for her?"

Xiao Zhendong glanced at her. "No need. She knows Xiao Family's rules. If she wants to come back for dinner, she should have known to go out early. She's already an adult, yet she's still so careless."

Su Mo had just sat down. When she heard this, she timidly looked at Xiao Nanye, thinking to herself, "What rules does this Xiao Family have?"

Xiao Nanye actually understood what she meant and gave her a casual look as if he was saying that she would slowly find out in the future.

Since Old Master spoke, he wouldn't wait for his daughter. When it was time to eat, he moved his chopsticks. Only then did the others pick up their chopsticks to pick up food.

When they were eating, no one spoke. Everyone lowered their heads and ate their own food. The entire living room was quiet, and only the sound of chopsticks could be heard.

Su Mo felt this meal was so depressing!

Facing this table full of delicious food, Su Mo was not interested. She only glanced at Xiao Nanye from time to time. He was happy and content. He was not uncomfortable at all.

Halfway through the meal, Aunt Liu came over and said that the Fourth Miss was back.

Xiao Zhendong nodded. Not long after, a woman in her forties walked in. She was a short-curly-haired and capable woman and was wearing a military uniform. She looked very handsome.

When Su Mo saw her come in, her eyes began to shine. She thought to herself, "Could this be the legendary daughter of the general?

"She's really domineering!"

After Xiao Junwan came in, she called out to her father and second sister-in-law honestly. Then, her gaze lingered on Su Mo for a moment before she said, "Oh, what day is it today? Two young masters of Xiao Family are here!"

Both Xiao Nanye and Xiao Mufeng looked up at her. "Aunt."

Xiao Junwan was still looking at Su Mo. There seemed to be no joy on her face. She knew that Su Mo was brought by Xiao Nanye here, but she deliberately asked, "May I know who this is?"

Xiao Nanye frowned slightly and explained simply, "My wife, Su Mo."

It was this sentence that shocked Su Mo so much that she choked and her voice died out.

Fortunately, she covered her mouth in time and did not make a big mistake. It was just that her face was red. She thought to herself, "Xiao Family's food is not so easy to eat."

Xiao Nanye glanced at Su Mo indifferently and asked someone to pour her a cup of warm water. He also introduced the identity of this lady to her, "This is my aunt."

Su Mo swallowed the food in her mouth with difficulty and called out obediently to the woman with tears in her eyes, "Hello, aunt."

However, the woman didn’t appreciate it at all. She walked over with a sullen face. "Don't make it sound so nice. I can't afford it."

Su Mo was stunned and subconsciously looked at Xiao Nanye. He did not seem to care about it and lowered his head to focus on picking the fish bones on the plate.

"Be careful when you eat fish," He placed the fish without fish bones in her bowl and warned her worriedly, "You are not allowed to eat it in just two bites."

"Oh." Su Mo nodded. As expected, she had forgotten what had happened just now. She lowered her head and concentrated on eating the fish.

She was naturally enjoying Young Master Xiao's service, which surprised everyone at the table. Even Xiao Zhendong could not help but look at her a few more times.

Xiao Zhendong thought to himself, "This girl is very interesting!"

However, Xiao Junwan was unhappy. She raised her eyebrows and was about to speak when she heard her Old Master knock on the table. "Let's eat first. We can talk after we eat."

Old Master Xiao's words caused the living room to fall into silence once again.

After dinner, everyone moved to the sofa in the living room. Aunt Liu brought tea and fruit plates over. Xiao Nanye habitually forked an apple and fed it to Su Mo.

Unknowingly, Su Mo opened her mouth and eat it, but she was still nitpicking. "I don't want to eat apples. I want to eat pineapple."

As expected, Xiao Nanye handed her a piece of pineapple. When Su Mo still wanted to eat it, the Eldest Young Master said, "You can't eat too much after dinner. Otherwise, you won't be able to digest it at night."

Last time, because Su Mo was too greedy, she ate too much. At night, her stomach hurt so much that she rolled on the bed. She only fell asleep until almost dawn after she ate medicine and groaned.

However, this person had a greedy mouth and did not have a good memory, so she could only restrain herself when Xiao Nanye watched her from the side.

Su Mo was dissatisfied with Young Master Xiao coming to preach again. She quietly pulled his sleeve and raised a finger at him, indicating that she would only eat another piece.

Xiao Nanye frowned. Su Mo quickly put her palms together in a begging gesture and thought to herself, "Please!"

As if he could hear her thoughts, Xiao Nanye smiled and picked up a piece of pineapple for her. "Open your mouth."

Su Mo ate happily and glanced at the fruit plate again. Xue Mei opened her mouth and was about to speak when Xiao Mufeng pulled her. She paused for a moment.

Because of this pause, Xiao Junwan’s voice rose, "What do you want to eat? Don't you have hands? In the end, you are raised by a small family. You don't have any rules."

Su Mo was stunned for a moment and suddenly remembered that she was in Xiao Family, not Yu Garden.

However, Xiao Junwan's words were too hurtful. Su Mo apologized with red eyes, "I'm sorry."

Though she did not know what she had done wrong.

Clang!

It was Xiao Nanye who threw the fork on the plate and turned to speak to Xiao Zhendong, "We’ve had the dinner and you've met her. If grandfather has nothing to do, I will take Su Mo back tonight."

"Xiao Nanye, what do you mean by this? You've hidden your wife for such a long time. Can't she let others say a few words?" Xiao Junwan's face changed when she heard this.

"I know how to discipline my own woman, so there's no need for aunt to worry," Xiao Nanye said, looking at her.

Xiao Junwan was so angry that her face turned green. She slammed the table and shouted, "Dad, Second Sister-in-law, listen to him. What was he saying? He has been abroad for so many years. He has no upbringing at all!"

Xiao Nanye thought to himself, "Without a father or a mother, is it necessary to talk about upbringing?"

As Xiao Nanye sneered, Xiao Junwan was about to flare up again, but Xue Mei quickly pulled her back. "Don't be angry, Third Sister. Ah Ye has always been like this. He doesn't have any other intentions."

Su Mo was so embarrassed that she wanted to die. Xiao Nanye kicked her and said, "What are you waiting for? Let's go!"

"Ah? Oh!" Su Mo quickly stood up. She also wanted to leave this place immediately. She felt this Xiao Family was really too strange.

"Stop right there!"

Seeing that Xiao Nanye was about to leave, Xiao Zhendong glared at him and pointed at his nose to scold him, "You stinking brat, we can't even say a word?"

Xiao Nanye was not afraid of him. He turned around and looked at Xiao Zhendong expressionlessly. "Grandpa, is there anything else?"

His indifferent attitude made Xiao Zhendong angered to the point of losing his mind. "If you want to leave, then you can get lost. Your wife promised to stay at home for a few days."

When Su Mo heard this, she cried out in her heart.

Sure enough, when Xiao Nanye heard this, he turned to look at her and said in a light tone, "You promised him?" Su Mo was familiar with the undercurrent rushing up from his tone.

"Well... Actually..." Su Mo secretly glanced at Old Master who wore a serious look. At this time, she did not dare to say that she did not promise that at all.
