Chapter 629 - He Didn’t Want to Waste His Life and Time Away
Panda Novel
It was Old Madam, his grandma, who was hurrying him to get married. What could he do?
“Do you think avoiding it will solve the problem?” Old Madam was getting increasingly upset. “You’re always finding an excuse to leave whenever I bring this up. I know you think that I’m an annoying and naggy old woman, and you don’t wish to hear me go on. In that case, buck up and bring me a granddaughter-in-law soon. Find one for me and I’ll stop annoying you in the future.”
Mo Shixiu was speechless.
Old Madam had just calmed down, and he didn’t wish to upset her again.
He smiled helplessly and said, “Grandma, picking a wife is not as easy as picking vegetables at the market. I can’t find one immediately even if I want to.
“I promise you, once I find someone I like, I’ll surely bring her home to you. How’s that?”
Mo Shixiu wasn’t all that interested in dating at this point, but he wasn’t intending to remain single his whole life either.
He still intended to get married someday.
He just felt that marriage was sacred, and the person he married was going to spend the rest of his life with him. He really had to pick her properly.
He didn’t want to waste his life and time away in the future.
Even if he ended up not marrying a woman he absolutely loved, she had to be someone he felt pleasant towards.
Not any “just alright” woman.
Old Madam didn’t believe his patronizing words anymore.
Her grandson was always putting her off with this each time she brought it up.
But had he ever brought a girl home?
No, not even once.
Meanwhile, this younger grandson of hers had never promised her anything before. Neither did she have many expectations for him to bring a girl home anytime soon. And yet, he brought her a granddaughter-in-law out of the blue.
“Sure, sure.” Old Madam knew that her grandsons were both strongly opinionated people. There was no way she could force anything on them.
They would go along with her when it came to trivial matters.
But for something as huge as their wedding, they would surely want to take full charge of it.
She could just take this as a reminder for him, rather than actually forcing him to get married.
She just wished that her older grandson wouldn’t spend all his time and energy on work, completely neglecting other important things in life.
She was just afraid that he’d completely forget about this.
“I’ve already said this much, but I don’t know how much you’ve internalized. I just wish to see you get married and have children while I’m still alive. That way, I won’t have any regrets left in life. I’m a bit bloated from dinner. Mianmian, can you take a walk in the garden with Grandma?”
Seeing that Old Madam was about to get up, Qiao Mianmian immediately held her arm and helped her up slowly. “Alright, I’m also a bit full too and want to go take a walk. I’ll go with Grandma.”
“Good girl.”
Old Madam held her hand and smiled at her younger grandson. “Ah Si, you’re with your wife every day. You wouldn’t mind if Grandma borrows her for an hour or so?”
Mo Yesi smiled. “Of course I wouldn’t.”
“We’ll get going, then. Mianmian, come, Grandma will take you to see the flowers. Let me tell you…”
Old Madam grabbed Qiao Mianmian’s hand endearingly, and Qiao Mianmian held her affectionately as well. The young and old made their way to the garden happily.
…
Once they left.
Mo Shixiu and Mo Yesi also took their leave from the dining table.
