Yue Jiuyue wasn't unaware of Lin Chaobei's incredulous expression, but she wasn't afraid of ruining her image anymore. Besides, this little thing didn't really count as ruining her image. Who said that grandmothers have to dote on their grandsons? Are grandmothers not allowed to complain about their grandsons being dirty?
"Mom! Hold him for a bit, I need to go to the toilet! I've been holding it in for ages!"
Lin Chaobei tried to shove Dazhuang into Yue Jiuyue's arms again, but Yue Jiuyue took another step back.
Lin Chaobei felt heartbroken.
Judging from Yue Jiuyue's appearance, she definitely wouldn't hug Dazhuang, so Lin Chaobei could only put Dazhuang on the ground casually. Would that be alright?
Only an old man and a child were left staring at each other wide-eyed.
"Ya ya ya! Ya ya ya!"
It kept spouting baby talk that Yue Jiuyue couldn't understand, and kept crawling towards Yue Jiuyue as it spoke. What a clueless little brat! Heavens!
"Madam, I think I heard Fourth Master's voice. Have they returned?"
While asking Yue Jiuyue questions, Liu looked around but couldn't find Lin Chaobei, let alone the person she most wanted to see.
"Oh, you're back. You were in a hurry to go to the outhouse."
Yue Jiuyue replied without looking up, her eyes still fixed on the little cub crawling towards her on the ground. Every time she took a step back, the little cub giggled foolishly.
"Huh? Is this the young master?"
Hearing the laughter, Liu looked down and saw Dazhuang still struggling to crawl toward Yue Jiuyue. She didn't dare to recognize him at first.
Dazhuang has changed so much! Not only has he grown up, but he has also lost so much weight, much thinner than the children in his family who were struggling financially a few years ago.
"Yes, that's him. Take him downstairs, give him a bath, and change his clothes. Oh, and cook extra dinner tonight. Everyone except the eldest son and his wife is back."
Upon hearing Yue Jiuyue's words, Liu's smile was much brighter than when she had come out earlier. Before, it was just a guess, but now it was completely confirmed: her son, Da Niu, had returned!
"Oh! Oh! Madam, I'll bathe and change the young master right away, and I'll also make extra dinner!"
Liu happily took Dazhuang to bathe. It was unclear whether the child had some ability to judge closeness or distance, but he even stretched out his little paws, wanting Yue Jiuyue to hold him.
Yue Jiuyue naturally refused without hesitation. Compared to seeing a smelly child, she would rather see a smelly piglet, at least that could be made into various delicious dishes.
"Mom! I'm back!"
"Grandma! I'm back! I missed you so much, Grandma!"
"Greetings, Madam!"
"Woof woof woof! Woof woof woof!"
For a moment, the courtyard was noisy and bustling.
Before Yue Jiuyue even left the house, Lin Chaonan and the others stepped into the yard carrying large and small bags. Even the dogs, who had been running around playing somewhere, had returned. There had never been a more boisterous time than now.
"Sigh! You've all lost weight since you went out! Go wash up quickly, change into clean clothes, and take a nap if you can. Liu will cook you a good meal tonight to help you regain the weight you've lost!"
Yue Jiuyue looked at the little girl who had pounced on her, and no matter how disgusted she was, she could only endure it. She even put on a kind and gentle act, which made Lin Chaobei, who had just come out of the toilet, question his life.
Is this his mother?
Is that the mother who just looked at him and Dazhuang with disdain?
How can we treat them differently?
"Mom! I miss you so much!"
Lin Chaobei quietly walked over and put his arm around Yue Jiuyue's neck.
