Chapter 299: Too Fat, She’s A Little Beauty
The Grace Defender Duke, who had been sporting a dignified and cold expression earlier, imdiately broke into a smile until his eyes narrowed when he saw his precious granddaughter.
“Oh my, our adorable Baby Nuo is here too?”
Gu Nuo’er’s small body pounced into the Grace Defender Duke’s arms.
She looked up and said softly, “Grandpa, Baby Nuo misses you. Why did you take so long to co back? Was it fun outside?”
The Grace Defender Duke laughed loudly and carried Gu Nuo’er in his arms.
“It was fun. There are places outside with vast mountains, rivers, and beautiful lakes. Even the sugar figurine sellers are different from those in the capital!
“This ti, Grandpa went to a small prefecture near the sea and brought back a piece of jade shell for you. Grandpa will show it to you later, alright?”
Gu Nuo’er raised her small hands and cheered, “Grandpa is the best!”
As she spoke, she generously gave the Grace Defender Duke a kiss.
The kiss sounded very loud.
Noble Consort Qiao followed at the side and shook her head helplessly. “Baby Nuo, how many tis have I told you? You should call him grandfather1.”
Gu Nuo’er twisted her small body aggrievedly and whined pitifully, “Oh, Mother, Baby Nuo will change next ti.”
The Grace Defender Duke hated to see his granddaughter be put through grief!
He imdiately glared with his fierce eyes. The dignity that seeped out from the battlefield frightened Noble Consort Qiao so much that she subconsciously shrank her neck.
“Nuo’er can call whatever she likes. You’re always too nosy. When you saw your paternal grandfather when you were young, your pronunciation was all wrong too.”
Noble Consort Qiao blushed and said angrily, “Father! There are so many palace servants here. Moreover, in front of Baby Nuo, let’s not ntion these things anymore.”
The Grace Defender Duke snorted. Then, he carried Gu Nuo’er and pinched her chubby face.
“Baby Nuo, tell Grandpa why you’ve lost weight. Did your mother not let you eat delicious food?”
Gu Nuo’er shook her head. “That’s not true. Grandpa, let tell you. Mother taught Nuo’er to eat less sweet things because that way, I won’t get fat. In the future, I’ll be a great beauty when I grow up. If I’m too fat, I’ll just be a small beauty. I won’t be big enough.”
The Grace Defender Duke was amused by her childish words and laughed loudly.
“Don’t listen to your mother. She was also as fat as a ball when she was young!”
“Father!” Noble Consort Qiao stomped her feet and shouted angrily.
A voice interrupted with a benevolent smile. “Stinky old man, are you badmouthing our girl again? She’s a consort now, so you shouldn’t say so much.”
Gu Nuo’er turned around and saw a silver-haired old woman being helped over by the maidservants.
Her silver hair was combed neatly and there were not many wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. There was a gentle and loving smile on her well-maintained face.
At first glance, she looked like a very energetic and amiable old lady.
Gu Nuo’er imdiately reached out her chubby hands. “Grandmother, carry~ I want you to carry~”
The Grace Defender Duke then handed Gu Nuo’er over and placed her in her grandmother’s arms. The child imdiately rested her head on the old madam’s shoulder.
She sighed like an adult. “Grandma, you’ve had fun outside for many years and don’t know how worried Baby Nuo is! Does your head still hurt when it rains now? Baby Nuo can give you a massage.”
The Grace Defender Duchess was stunned.
She had a headache and it would act up every rainy day. Sotis, it was so painful that she had to drink dicine and receive acupuncture to get through it.
She didn’t expect that even though Gu Nuo’er had only seen her headache act up once was two years old, she still rembered it in her heart.
Gu Nuo’er had also been worried that she would feel pain when she was out.
The old madam was extrely touched. She patted Gu Nuo’er’s small body. “Baby Nuo, good girl. Grandmother’s health is much better than before.”
