Chapter 208 Family
Xiao Maisui stood outside the door for a long time.
She was holding the Lingna Belle plush toy her brother gave her. She was small, and the toy was almost as tall as her.
There had always been a few big, hard men in the house, and when a delicate little girl came, even the housekeeper spoke in a lower tone.
"Xiao Maisui, my brother is sleeping, can the housekeeper go to the playroom to play for a while?"
"No, my brother promised to sleep with me yesterday, why does he want to sleep with Brother Pei again?" Xiao Maisui hugged the plush toy tightly, her voice muffled, as if she was very unhappy.
The housekeeper smiled and said, "Brother is a big boy, and Xiao Maisui is a little girl. Did the teacher teach Xiao Maisui that boys and girls cannot sleep together?"
Xiao Maisui thought for a while and said, "Only after they are married. Are Brother Huo Qiao and Brother Pei married?"
The housekeeper's smile froze. He was almost 60 years old. Although he was not an old-fashioned person, he was still a little uncomfortable with the young master finding a male companion.
"... Xiao Maisui, the chef uncle baked some delicious little cakes. Let's go down and try them?"
"Really?" Xiao Maisui's eyes suddenly lit up. She had cavities and always went to the dentist in Country M. The dentist did not allow her to eat a lot of candy.
The housekeeper stretched out a finger: "Dad said I can have one piece."
"Great!" The little girl was simple-minded and was coaxed away by a piece of cake.
"Eat the cake first, Grandpa will come to play with us later."
"Can Grandpa eat the cake?"
The voices of the old and the young disappeared in the corridor, and the second floor returned to silence.
Pei Yuzhi and Huo Qiao woke up at almost noon.
There were children's laughter downstairs again.
Listening to the noise outside, Pei Yuzhi said to Huo Qiao:
"Could it be that the old housekeeper has also raised you since you were a child?"
Huo Qiao casually said in the bathroom:
"You mean the housekeeper? I started living in the Cui family when I was less than one year old, and returned to the Huo family when I was 10 years old. It was the housekeeper and a nanny who took care of me. But the nanny was heartbroken two years ago, and was taken home by her son to be raised in her old age."
Pei Yuzhi raised his eyebrows, "It's not easy to be an employee in your family. I have to delay my retirement. Now that a little wheat ear is here, I guess it will still be taken care of by this housekeeper."
The finger that was twisting the faucet paused, and Huo Qiao poked his head out of the bathroom: "Be careful of my uncle when you eat later."
"What do you mean?" Pei Yuzhi was puzzled.
Huo Qiao sneered: "No wonder he was so confident that he dumped the child's mother, and when he returned to China, he was so attentive to invite you to dinner, what an old fox."
Seeing that Pei Yuzhi still didn't understand, Huo Qiao said unhappily: "Cui Xianxing himself is impatient to take care of the child, and he must take the child back, so he wants me to help him take care of the child. This kind of person is really not worthy of being a father."
Pei Yuzhi: ...
No wonder I had a lot of good faces for Pei Yuzhi when I was playing chess yesterday.
But he and Huo Qiao are two grown men, and the company is so busy that even if there is a nanny, there is no time to accompany the child.
What's more, they are still in love.
I don't know how much time it will take to take care of the child.
The ancients said that no one knows a child better than his father, and this is also suitable for Cui Xianxing and Huo Qiao.
For lunch, they cooked a table full of dishes that children love, including cola chicken wings, fish-flavored pork shreds, chicken egg custard, shredded apples, and sweet and sour pork ribs. Pei Yuzhi and Huo Qiao didn't eat in the morning, so they were enjoying the food now.
Halfway through the meal, Cui Xianxing slowly spoke.
"Little wheat ear, do you like Brother Huo Qiao and Brother Pei?"
"Yes!" Little wheat ear's eyes widened, and she turned to Huo Qiao with a big smile.
Cui Xianxing gave her a piece of pork ribs and coaxed her with a smile: "What do you think about letting Brother Huo Qiao live in our house in the future?"
Huo Qiao sneered, and when he was about to say something, Little wheat ear shook his head first.
"No." The little girl's serious expression was very cute.
Huo Qiao paused, and he was also a little curious and wanted to ask why not, but Pei Yuzhi pinched his thigh under the table.
Huo Qiao was shocked. [I almost fell into the trap of Cui Xianxing, the old fox! ]
Cui Xianxing didn't expect Xiao Maisui to say no. "Why? Didn't Xiao Maisui say she liked Brother Huo Qiao?"
Xiao Maisui lowered her long eyelashes. There was still brown-red soup of sweet and sour pork ribs on her round little face. She looked very cute.
But her expression was not happy at this moment. She muttered in a low voice: "Dad is so stupid! Brother Huo Qiao and Brother Pei are sleeping together. They are going to get married and live together in the future. They have their own homes. I have to live with my father and mother."
The sweet and sour pork ribs on Pei Yuzhi's chopsticks fell into the plate.
Huo Qiao had a dark face and said nothing.
And the smile on Cui Xianxing's face also disappeared completely.
The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became strange. Although the child was ignorant, she was very good at sensing danger.
She looked at Cui Xianxing timidly, then at Huo Qiao, and seemed to be frightened.
Mr. Cui immediately glared at Cui Xianxing, "Why are you making such a sullen face? You scared the child! I think Xiao Maisui is only 6 years old and is more reasonable than you!"
Cui Xianxing was helpless: "Dad, how could I have a sullen face?"
"Dad really looked very grumpy just now!" Little Wheat Ear glared at him with his little round eyes. "Besides, Little Wheat Ear wasn't wrong. Dad should live with Mom and take care of me! Mom used to say that Dad worked too hard and had no time to visit me. Now I see that Dad doesn't even have a job. Grandpa said that our family is very rich and we don't need to work to support Little Wheat Ear! Does Dad just not like me? That's why he wants a brother? Come home and play with me?"
Cui Xianxing frowned unhappily: "Little Mai Sui, who told you that? What do you mean our family is rich and dad doesn't need to work?"
Huo Qiao said coldly: "Why are you scaring her? Is she wrong? What are you doing hiring so many professional managers? You are so old and you finally have a child, but you still want to be a hands-off manager. If you don't have time to accompany her, just let her mother come back to take care of her!"
"No!"
"No!"
Old Master Cui and Cui Xianxing denied at the same time!
When Little Mai Sui heard that her mother was to come back and her father and grandfather refused again, she immediately burst into tears.
At this moment, both Mr. Cui and Cui Xianxing were anxious.
You know, Xiao Maisui had lived with Cui Xianxing for several weeks and had never cried like this before.
Occasionally, she missed her mother, and Cui Xianxing persuaded her a few words, and her eyes would be red at most.
It was really the first time for her to cry so loudly like this.
Huo Qiao was also a little at a loss. Pei Yuzhi looked at the appearance of several grown men coaxing a little girl and showed a schadenfreude smile.
And this smile was seen by Huo Qiao...
