Chapter 132: Covering and backing
When ng Laofuren enters the courtyard and saw Xiao Tianyao sitting in his wheelchair, waiting for them near the door. Her face becos soft and gentle.
Xiao Tianyao nodded his head as a greeting to the old lady. Then, he waved his hand to the servant next to him to push his wheelchair closer. Xiao Tianyao’s eyes swept to Lin Chujiu, but he only speaks to the old lady: “ng Laofuren, benwang wasn’t able to greet and pick you personally. May you forgive this prince.”
It can be said, Xiao Tianyao’s appearance is still very deceptive. He is still so proud and indifferent to other people. But because he took the initiative to speak, ng Laofuren felt surprised.
Xiao Wangye is known for being cold to others.
But seeing Xiao Tianyao’s eyes right now with a trace of gentleness, ng Laofuren felt at ease. So, she said gracefully with respect: “Wangye, your words are heavy. This old lady doesn’t dare to tire the prince.”
“ng Laofuren is Chujiu’s grandmother, and so is benwang. ng Laofuren doesn’t need to be so modest.” Xiao Tianyao had no expression on his face, but because his words showed goodwill. ng Laofuren felt touched. Especially, when he called Lin Chujiu only by her na. Inside ng Laofuren’s heart, she couldn’t help but believed Lin Chujiu’s words a bit. She believes that Lin Chujiu lives well in Xiao Wangfu.
ng Laofuren no longer tried to be modest, but she said with a smile: “If Wangye said so, this old lady won’t disagree.” Xiao Tianyao is a prince, his identity is much higher than her. And if this identity becos the main issue, ng Laofuren cannot guarantee that she can fully support Lin Chujiu. Xiao Tianyao accepting her as his elder is sothing she can only hope for.
“ng Laofuren, speaking casually is just fine.” Xiao Tianyao had already given enough face to Lin Chujiu. But, Lin Chujiu didn’t feel happy because her grandmother has been standing for long. Lin Chujiu didn’t want ng Laofuren to notice it, so she smiles and walks behind Xiao Tianyao to replace the servant: “Wangye, we’ve been staying here for long. Let’s go inside and continue our talk. Grandmother is too old to stay outside.”
Even though he didn’t see it, Xiao Tianyao can imagine Lin Chujiu’s brilliant smile. But, he knows that she’s unhappy and her bright smile was fake.
However, there will be more chance later.
Xiao Tianyao nodded his head toward the old lady. “ng Laofuren, let’s go inside first.”
“Alright, Wangye, you may go first.” Seeing Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu getting along well, ng Laofuren felt more and more happy.
Right now, she is not worried about Lin Chujiu anymore. Because she felt that Xiao Tianyao is really good to her granddaughter. Her worries have completely dissipated.
After entering the house, ng Laofuren and Xiao Tianyao continue their talk. But because Xiao Tianyao doesn’t like to talk much. ng Laofuren was the one who speaks most of the ti. However, Xiao Tianyao listens to her and occasionally answer her questions.
ng Laofuren couldn’t help but find Xiao Tianyao’s actions warm and kind. But, she still didn’t stop showing respect. ng Laofuren had a long interaction with Xiao Tianyao more than Lin Chujiu, so she had a tacit understanding about him. With that, she got more and more satisfied with him. She got even happier when she learned that Xiao Tianyao really lives in this kind of place.
When Lin Chujiu had said earlier that she volunteered to live here. She boldly guesses that Lin Chujiu and Xiao Tianya had a fight. But if that is the real case, with Xiao Tianyao’s personality, he will not co and lives here.
So, ng Laofuren directly said to Lin Chujiu: “Chujiu, if Wangye was so busy with his work, you should take care of his needs. You shouldn’t lose your temper.”
“Grandmother, when did I?” Lin Chujiu felt depressed. But, she could only brightly smile, so that this old lady won’t get worried.
“You never? That is good.” ng Laofuren enjoyed Lin Chujiu’s pleasure jokes. In fact...
Xiao Tianyao also likes it. He didn’t take his eyes off to Lin Chujiu, so he likes it too, right?
However, Lin Chujiu had never spared him a glance, or even talk softly to him. The two of them are more like strangers. But, Xiao Tianyao didn’t find anything wrong with it. He like her being filial. He finds her look in front of ng Laofuren very lovely. So, Xiao Tianyao couldn’t help but imagine himself as ng Laofuren.
If Lin Chujiu will spoil him like this, she will also look cute, right?
Xiao Tianyao was daydreaming, so when he recovered his mind. He doesn’t know what ng Laofuren is talking about. Because he only heard her say: “My granddaughter grew up spoiled. So, Wangye, if she did sothing, don’t hesitate to inform . I will go here imdiately and scold her.”
aning, if Lin Chujiu didn’t behave herself. Xiao Tianyao doesn’t need to scold her because her own relative will.
To say that, she definitely cares about Lin Chujiu. So when Xiao Tianyao heard ng Laofuren‘s words, he didn’t get angry. Rather, he felt happy for Lin Chujiu. Because soone from her family is so concerned about her.
Xiao Tianyao took a glance at Lin Chujiu. And when he saw her cheerful look, his face unconsciously soften a bit while whispering: “Very well.”
This answer is not enough. Because ng Laofuren’s happiness is much greater than the word “well”.

Seeing lunch ti is coming up, ng Laofuren looks at Lin Chujiu and gave her a hint to send soone to prepare their lunch. But, Lin Chujiu decided to go to the kitchen personally to prepare a porridge.
Lin Chujiu understand what ng Laofuren really want to do. ng Laofuren wants to have a private discussion with Xiao Tianyao. But before she left, she took a glance at Xiao Tianyao. A glance that looks hoping for sothing.
When he saw her big wet eyes, Xiao Tianyao felt sothing stab his heart. There was no actual blunt object that stabs him, but it was painful.
Seeing Xiao Tianyao still staring at Lin Chujiu’s departing back, ng Laofuren‘s eyes couldn’t help but show a trace of happiness. But when Xiao Tianyao looks back at her, the smile in her eyes has vanished. Seeing this, Xiao Tianyao also look at her seriously.
Because Xiao Tianyao knows clearly that is the real beginning of their talk.
ng Laofuren didn’t beat around the bush, she said bluntly: “Wangye, people from Ming Dynasty doesn’t speak ill words. But this old lady really has to say this. Lin Chujiu’s life is full bitterness. Lin Xiang is the emperor’s confidant, so he will never help Lin Chujiu. Rather, he will drag her down.”
When ng Laofuren was speaking those words, she was looking at Xiao Tianyao intently. So, when she saw Xiao Tianyao didn’t get dissatisfied, she continued: “However, Wangye, you can rest assured. Lin Family will not support Lin Chujiu, but my Guo Gongfu will!”
ng Laofuren’s voice is not loud, but every word she said has power.
Her words were representing Guo Gongfu. So it can be said that even if the people from Eastern Country turn their back on Xiao Tianyao, Guo Gongfu will still support him because of Lin Chujiu!
“ng Laofuren, benwang understood your intention. But, ng Laofuren doesn’t really have to.” Lin Chujiu maybe his wife, but: “Benwang doesn’t need his woman’s backing.”
ng Laofuren didn’t understand the aning behind Xiao Tianyao’s words, so she frowned and asked: “Wangye, are you looking down on my Guo Gongfu?”
A dead starved cal is still bigger than a horse. So, although her three sons are not very promising, the foundation that was left behind by her husband, the old Guo Gongfu, still exist. So whether it is in the officialdom or in the army, Guo Gongfu still had a little power. Guo Gongfu cannot beco his biggest support, but he still shouldn’t look down on them... ...
