After a 20-minute drive, the car arrived smoothly at the Xuan family's old residence.
After Mo Niannian got out of the car, she also took Xiaoyouyou out of the back seat.
What a huge house! It looks like the owner is very wealthy.
It's even bigger than the villa where my grandfather lives.
The luncheon today was very grand. Not only were Hsien Cheng-sen and Lin Su-ching present, but even close relatives from all over the country came. Hsien Ming-yu's parents, uncles, and aunts all rushed back at this time, just to see Mo Niannian.
"Let me hold Youyou." Xuan Mingyu reached out to take Youyou from Mo Niannian's arms.
Mo Niannian took a step back, not letting him carry her, "No need, I'll carry her. After all, Youyou and I are outsiders, it's not appropriate for you to carry her inside."
Xuan Mingyu was a little angry. What kind of time is this to be saying such things? “What outsiders? Youyou is my daughter, and you are my wife. Who dares to say that you are outsiders?”
Hearing him say that, Mo Niannian was quite happy, but she still wouldn't let him hold Xiaoyouyou.
This little one is too naughty; even Xian Mingyu might not be able to control her. It's more reassuring for Mo Niannian to hold her herself.
Led by the butler, they entered the house, which was filled with people, all of whom were staring at them. Mo Niannian was a little scared and hugged Xiao Youyou, hiding behind Xian Mingyu. "You, your house... why are there so many people?"
He put his arm around her and told her not to be too nervous. "It's okay, they are all relatives you've met before, they mean you no harm."
"But......"
Little Youyou had never seen anything like this before. With so many people staring at her, the little one pouted and burst into tears.
Mo Niannian quickly comforted her, covering her mouth to stop her crying, "Good girl, good girl, Youyou, Mommy's here."
She seemed a little flustered. Usually, when she was with Youyou, even if she cried, Mo Niannian could handle it. But today's situation was different. They were here to meet Xian Mingyu's family. Would Youyou's crying leave a bad impression on them?
Actually, Youyou is usually a very well-behaved baby who doesn't cry much. It's just that she's still so young, so it's inevitable that she's a little scared when she sees such a big scene.
Youyou cried so hard that Mo Niannian couldn't comfort her; snot and tears streamed down her face.
Xian Mingyu also helped to comfort her, taking the little Youyou from Mo Niannian's arms and letting her snot and tears stain his clothes without him caring at all. "Youyou, be good, don't cry, don't cry. Uncle will protect you, don't be afraid."
Everyone present was stunned by what they saw.
You should know that Hsien Ming-yu has always hated being around children, and he has a severe case of mysophobia. He would get angry if his clothes got dirty even a little bit. But now he actually let Xiao Youyou rub her snot and tears on his clothes? And there wasn't a trace of disgust or aversion on his face.
However... that "uncle" is rather intriguing.
The way everyone in the room looked at Mo Niannian instantly changed.
If Xian Mingyu is this little girl's uncle, then that means this child is indeed not from the Xian family.
Although it's great to find Bai Xiaoruo, she brought back a child who is not related to Xian Mingyu at all. Isn't that just cheating on him?
Most people in the string family couldn't accept it.
Xian Mingyu's conditions are not bad either. There are many people who want to climb up to the Xian family. If he wants to get married, there are all kinds of women he can't find. But he insists on being with a woman who has had a child with another man. If outsiders find out, wouldn't that be a slap in the face to the Xian family?
The divorce between Xian Mingyu and Bai Xiaoruo back then had already drawn a lot of criticism from their relatives. Now, Bai Xiaoruo is bringing her child with another man here, which is really inappropriate.
Mo Niannian couldn't stop Xiaoyouyou from crying, but Xian Mingyu did.
The little one cried for a while, then stopped, her chubby little hands tightly hugging his neck, her little face pressed against his body, her big, watery eyes blinking.
They really did look like a father and daughter; Mo Niannian standing beside them looked like a family of three.
"Ahem!" Xuan Zhengsen, sitting on the sofa, coughed twice, indicating that they should do something.
These elders had been waiting for them here for quite some time.
Xuan Mingyu nudged Mo Niannian beside him, "Niannian, that's Grandpa, and Grandma..." He reintroduced all the relatives to Mo Niannian.
Clutching her dress, she took a slightly nervous step forward and bowed politely to them. "Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you. I didn't prepare any gifts, please forgive me."
Mo Niannian felt a little embarrassed that she came empty-handed.
I mentioned it to Hsien Ming-yu on the way, but he said it was just a regular family dinner, and giving gifts was unnecessary and secondary.
Jian Yuemei walked over first, tightly grasped Mo Niannian's hand, and broke the awkward atmosphere. "Xiao Ruo, it's been a long time. I'm so happy to see you. I'm Mingyu's aunt. Do you remember me? When you and Mingyu came to M country for your honeymoon, I gave you a kimono before you left."
Honeymoon? With him?
Mo Niannian turned around and glanced at Xuan Mingyu behind her. It seemed like something like that had happened before, but she wasn't quite sure.
Fang Peiru also stepped forward and pulled her to sit on the sofa. "Xiaoruo, I'm Mingyu's mother. Do you remember me?"
Lin Suqing stood up with a smile and sat down next to Mo Niannian. "Xiao Ruo, I'm your grandma. Do you remember me? I'm so happy that you're back. I thought I'd never see you again in this lifetime."
