"This, you know about it too?"
"Is there anything in this world your Ninth Uncle doesn’t know?"
"No, absolutely not! By the way, the manor is already renovated. To avoid trouble, the wedding will be held there, and everything is set up. After the wedding, you and Xiao Chen will move in. Otherwise, such a big place— living there alone—I’d be scared. Bringing along Xiao Bai and Little Xiaobai, with a bustling household, it’ll be much happier."
She had been thinking about this for a while now. Mr. Jiu naturally cherished her, but he usually lived alone, and while there were people tending to him, he still felt a bit lonely. Having Little Jin’er underfoot every day brightened things up considerably.
"If you don’t mind this old man being troubleso, I’ll move in for a few days."
Qin Miaomiao grabbed his arm and said with a grin:
"A few days? That won’t do! It’s our ho—you absolutely can’t feel annoyed. I’ve already planned your room to be exactly the sa as the setup in your Liyuan. The study, the painting room, and the collection chamber have all been arranged properly. Your favorite flowers and plants will be transplanted over when the ti cos. There’s even a small pond to raise so little goldfish or sothing. Plus, there’s a chess room. The house is equipped with underfloor heating, knowing you’re afraid of the cold, especially in winter. It will be perfect for you to recuperate."
"Also, Little Seventh is excellent at cooking. They’ll make broths for you every day. I’ll brew tea for you and massage your legs. Sound good?"
Mr. Jiu imdiately softened at this and said, "What you’re describing sounds like a fairy tale life. If I don’t go, wouldn’t I be letting you down? I’m just afraid that in the future you might find this old man annoying."
"How could that be! Ninth Uncle is an unparalleled handso guy, okay? Do you know how many won Yan Jing has, fighting tooth and nail to marry you? As far as I’m concerned, Ninth Uncle’s looks are absolutely ranked number one."
Ninth Uncle raised his eyelids—a complint no doubt, but hearing it made him feel very warm inside.
Besides, her sweet words weren’t just flattery. Most of the ti, she genuinely ant what she said. Otherwise, how could a man like him who had seen the world spoil her alone?
It was rely a matter of exchanging sincerity for sincerity.
Ou Beichen started feeling unsatisfied and muttered:
"Sis, then what about ?"
"Second."
"And brother-in-law?"
"He... barely makes it into third place."
"I’m third? Hmm?"
Lu Qing appeared out of nowhere, suddenly erging behind her. She jumped in surprise and turned to look at him, asking suspiciously:
"Why are you here? Didn’t you say you weren’t coming?"
"If I didn’t co, how else would I hear you ranking third?"
Mr. Jiu took a sip of tea, glanced at him, and said flatly:
"Your looks being third—it’s already flattering you."
"Old man, don’t be so cocky. Do you really think you deserve to be ranked first?"
"It was Little Jin’er’s ranking."
"She’s biased."
"You’re just jealous."
Lu Qing let out a cold laugh: "Jealous? being jealous of you? You’ve got to be kidding!"
Ou Beichen added softly: "Brother-in-law, you’re definitely jealous. After all, I’m ranked higher than you."
"Oh? What’s this? You siding with your ntor to gang up on now?"
"Wouldn’t dare, wouldn’t dare. I always respect my teacher."
"Nonsense! Have the guts to fight ?"
"Bring it on! Who’s afraid of who."
Qin Miaomiao rolled her eyes and shouted:
"Whoever dares fight before my wedding, don’t even think about attending the wedding!"
Lu Qing:
"I’m the groom! If I don’t attend, who are you marrying?"
Mr. Jiu chid in excitedly: "Need a replacent? I’ve got plenty of candidates and can call over a dozen right now."
"Ninth Uncle, stop ssing around! Lu Qing, you’re not allowed to cause trouble either. All of you behave yourselves."
These three together—it’s absolutely bound to spell disaster. Living under one roof? Haha, surely there’ll be chaos—chickens flying and dogs jumping everywhere!
