Chapter 1173: 294: Your mom is always your mom!

Zhou Zixian inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief, shaking her fan as she walked inside, “Second Sister, why didn’t you tell me when guests came to our house?”

“Zixian,” Du Jiaojiao stood up and said, “Zixian, let me introduce you. This is a mutual friend of mine and my second brother, Zhao Yu, her nickname is Duoduo. You can call her Duoduo.”

“Duoduo, this is my second brother’s second aunt, Zhou Zixian.”

Zhao Yu had an expression as if she had seen a ghost.

She had long heard that Mr. Du was a flirtatious ghost, who, relying on his non-Chinese nationality, married several wives, and now she saw it was true!

Zhou Zixian reached out to Zhao Yu, “Hello, just call me Zixian.”

“You, hello.” Zhao Yu reached out and shook her hand.

After the three of them sat down, Zhou Zixian looked at Zhao Yu and said: “When I was in the Garden, I heard them saying that a great beauty had arrived at our house. At first, I didn’t believe it, but it turns out to be true!”

She deliberately emphasized the words ‘great beauty’.

Du Jiaojiao knew what kind of person Zhou Zixian was. She signaled her with her eyes several times, but Zhou Zixian acted as if she didn’t see.

Zhao Yu pointed at herself and said, “Great beauty? Are you talking about me?”

“Yes,” Zhou Zixian nodded.

Zhao Yu laughed, “I know I look pretty good, but you can just call me a ‘Little Beauty’ in the future, because… my mom is the real great beauty!”

In Zhao Yu’s heart, Ni Yang was always the most beautiful!

Zhou Zixian: “…”

She was clearly being sarcastic!

Sarcastic!

Don’t you understand sarcasm?

Why does it seem like Zhao Yu didn’t understand at all?

Is she clueless?

Du Jiaojiao was holding back her laughter, she never expected Zhao Yu to come out with that response.

Zhou Zixian originally wanted to mock Zhao Yu, but it was like punching cotton.

Because the other person didn’t understand at all what she was saying.

Actually, did Zhao Yu really not understand what Zhou Zixian was saying?

Actually, no.

“Aunt Zixian, thank you for your compliments! I’d like to toast you with tea instead of wine!” Zhao Yu picked up a cup from the table.

Aunt?

Zhou Zixian’s expression instantly froze!

Zhao Yu actually called her aunt!

Oh my!

Am I that old?

Aunt!

She’s only twenty-four this year!

Zhou Zixian felt utterly upset, but couldn’t really lash out.

“Aunt Zixian, drink up!” Zhao Yu urged her.

Zhou Zixian forced a smile as she picked up the teacup on the table and touched it to her lips symbolically.

Zhao Yu put down her tea cup, and continued, “Aunt Zixian, you’re so gorgeous. Where are you from?”

Zhou Zixian: “…” If you didn’t call me ‘aunt’, I’d be happier.

“I’m from Chuancheng, and you?”

Zhao Yu said, “I’m from Beijing, Aunt Zixian. If you have time to come to Beijing, be sure to look me up!”

Zhou Zixian looked cheerful on the surface but was swearing inwardly.

It’s unclear whether Zhao Yu is truly naive or just pretending, but every sentence of hers had to include ‘Aunt Zixian’.

But this also reassured Zhou Zixian.

She originally thought that after introducing the fourth lady, Mr. Du might bring back a fifth lady.

It seems that won’t happen now.

Because in front of Mr. Du, Zhao Yu’s appearance is quite ordinary!

Just then, voices were heard from outside the door.

Followed by the crisp sound of bead curtains being lifted.

Zhou Zixian turned her head to look, only to see Mr. Du standing inside lifting the curtain.

Lifting the curtain?

Mr. Du, doing the task of lifting the curtain for another person, what an unusual event!

Who is the person behind the door?

Zhou Zixian narrowed her eyes.

She saw a slender figure walking in.

Wearing a plain white cheongsam, draped in a dark pearl-buttoned coat, moving gracefully, her eyes and brows exuding charm.

High heels clicked rhythmically on the wooden floor.

Click, click, with such a commanding presence.

Even Zhou Zixian, the top socialite, couldn’t help but exclaim in awe.

Ni Yang walked straight towards this side.

Zhao Yu stood up and said, “Aunt Zixian, let me introduce you, this is my mom! Mom, this is Grand Uncle’s second wife!”

Zhao Yu’s expression was extremely proud.

It was as if he was saying, “See, this is my mom!”

Zhou Zixian was stunned for a moment.

Ni Yang politely extended her hand, “Hello, I am Ni Yang.”

“You, hello.” Zhou Zixian hesitated and extended her right hand.

Then, Zhou Zixian continued, “She, she’s your daughter?”

Ni Yang nodded, “Yes, Duoduo is my goddaughter.”

So it’s a goddaughter!

Zhou Zixian was still puzzled, looking at Ni Yang who seemed almost the same age as Zhao Yu, wondering how she could possibly have a daughter as old as Zhao Yu.

“Grand Uncle.” After the greetings, Zhou Zixian obediently walked to Grand Uncle’s side.

Grand Uncle formally introduced Ni Yang to Zhou Zixian, “Zixian, this is the benefactor who saved me back in Beijing.”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zixian immediately thanked Ni Yang profusely, burst into tears, and finally even attempted to kneel down to her.

Ni Yang quickly helped Zhou Zixian up, “Sister-in-law, you don’t need to be so formal, Grand Uncle already thanked me.”

Since she is Grand Uncle’s second wife, calling her sister-in-law should be correct.

It’s no wonder Mo Qishen was so sure that Grand Uncle didn’t like women.

Seeing Zhou Zixian, Ni Yang understood why.

Zhou Zixian was so beautiful, with both a figure and a face, and a pair of captivating foxy eyes.

Probably no normal man could escape her charm.

And yet Grand Uncle didn’t appreciate her, bringing such a beauty home like a vase to be placed in the backyard, neglected and unheard.

What a waste of heaven’s gifts…

Grand Uncle glanced at Zhou Zixian, “Alright, you can go now.”

“Okay.” Zhou Zixian nodded.

Zhou Zixian left the Main Hall with uneasy feelings.

Ni Yang was Grand Uncle’s lifesaver and had come seeking him out, how could she not feel uneasy?

Since ancient times, what has been valued for saving a life?

It is valued by offering oneself!

And, Ni Yang was so beautiful.

What if Ni Yang really became the third wife?

Ni Yang was so beautiful; she couldn’t compete with her…

She had been at the Grand Uncle’s residence for some time, and although Grand Uncle openly showered her with affection, in truth, she hadn’t even got close to him.

She was new and had yet to smile; was she about to become the old one crying so soon?

Her family members were all counting on Grand Uncle to support them through their days!

What would happen to her family members if she fell out of favor?

Not possible!

She couldn’t let anyone take Grand Uncle away from her.

Inside, Zhao Yu directly grabbed Grand Uncle’s hand, “Come over here with me, I have a secret to tell you.”

“Hand.” Grand Uncle reminded her.

Zhao Yu muttered, “All big men, why are you so fussy?” Then she let go of his hand and instead gripped his sleeve.

Dragging Grand Uncle outside, Zhao Yu reached out her hand, “The candy!”

Grand Uncle straightened his sleeve and instructed the servant to get candy for Zhao Yu.

The servants nearby were all stunned.

During all her time in Grand Uncle’s house, it was the first time they saw someone daring to pull and tug at Grand Uncle like that.

Moreover, this person was a female.

Probably even the two madams of the house wouldn’t dare to treat Grand Uncle like that.

Zhao Yu somewhat unhappily said, “Why don’t you carry it with you? It’s only been a few days! You’ve completely forgotten me! Aren’t we still good buddies! Good brothers!”

Back in Beijing, whenever she wanted candy, all she had to do was reach out her hand.

Grand Uncle would carry candies in his pouch just like feeding birdseed.

Twirling his Buddha Beads, Grand Uncle said, “Wrong generation. Your mom calls me ‘big brother’, by seniority, you should call me ‘uncle’.”

“Uncle?” Zhao Yu frowned slightly.

Grand Uncle nodded, “Good nephew, be nice.”

Zhao Yu said disdainfully, “You’re not my uncle! I already have an uncle, and my uncle’s name is Shangguan Xu!”
