Chapter 233: The Honest Old Xiao

Xiao Zhen pulled Xiao Qinglin over and said with a low laugh, "I came here today because I want you two elders to meet my newly adopted daughter!"

Xiao Zhen slowly pushed Qing Lin forward a few steps, which caught the little girl off guard. She was incoherent for a moment and didn't know what to say.

Seeing such a cute little girl, Guan Xue couldn't help herself and immediately rushed up to hug Qinglin, rubbing her fair little face.

"What a lovely child! I love him so much. Good boy, call me grandma!"

Qinglin's little face was red, and his mouth moved, as if he called out something, but also as if he didn't call out something. Anyway, there was no sound.

Xiao Zhen shook his head and explained, "This child is very shy, mother, please don't scare her!"

Guan Xue rolled her eyes at Xiao Zhen and said unhappily, "What are you talking about, kid? I am your biological mother and I have a lot of experience in raising children.

Thinking back to the past, from your elder brother to you, as well as Xiao Ding, Xiao Li and Xiao Yan'er, each of them was raised by me!"

Talking about his childhood, Xiao Zhen felt a little embarrassed. When he was a baby, he often couldn't control his body, and it was inevitable that... some small problems would occur.

Guan Xue touched Qing Lin's little head and said affectionately, "I helped your elder brother take care of three children. Now you have grown up. Although this child is not your biological child, let me help take care of him from today on!"

Xiao Zhen scratched the back of his head and looked at Die beside him. He thought that he had already explained it, so he said honestly: "In fact, when I was training outside, I already had a son!"

Xiao Lin and Guan Xue both widened their eyes and looked at Xiao Zhen in disbelief, especially Xiao Lin. He thought more and glanced at Die inconspicuously. He found that there was nothing unusual about Die. He guessed that Die also knew about this!

Guan Xue also realized it belatedly and glanced at Die, finally knowing why her son had only told her now, but the old lady still wanted to meet this grandson whom she had never met before.

Guan Xue exhaled lightly and said seriously: "This kind of thing is not a trivial matter. You must explain it to me honestly today, and apologize to Die. After all, she has been with you for so many years, and I have seen all this!"

Although Die's external identity is a servant who takes care of Xiao Zhen's life, Guan Xue knows that their relationship is not simple. However, she never points it out, and she also doesn't know that Die has the cultivation level of a Dou Huang.

Xiao Lin was also very conflicted. He wanted to see his new grandson, but he didn't want to destroy the relationship between his youngest son and Die.

Xiao Zhen glanced at Die next to him, only to see Die nod silently, indicating that Xiao Zhen would make the decision himself.

Xiao Zhen heaved a sigh of relief, and then he smiled faintly and said, "Since you two elders want to see the mother and son, I will definitely bring them to see you later!"

Guan Xue finally smiled, then she hugged Qing Lin and said happily: "Today is such a good day. Not only do we have such a lovely granddaughter, but we also have a grandson!"

Xiao Zhen thought for a moment, took out a few photos from the system space, and said embarrassedly: "I have photos of the mother and son here...portraits, you guys take a good look!"

As soon as these photos came out, everyone in the hall began to examine them carefully, even Qinglin was no exception. She really wanted to meet the person who was considered her brother or younger brother. What did he look like?

Guan Xue only took a glance and thought that the quality of the portrait was good, and then she focused her attention on the three people in the painting.

The three people in the painting are dressed very appropriately, but their clothes are a bit strange, probably the clothes from more remote areas.

Guan Xue easily recognized the man standing on the left, he was his youngest son Xiao Zhen. On the right was a young woman, although she was not very pretty, she looked very gentle and was definitely a good wife and mother.

Surrounded by the couple was a boy who had not even grown all his teeth.

"This child looks very cute and innocent!" This is Guan Xue's evaluation of her grandson.

Xiao Lin took a closer look, then raised the corner of his mouth slightly, shook his head and smiled at Xiao Zhen: "Why does this child look a little silly? He is not like you at all. You have been a smart kid since you were young!"

Old Xiao is also an honest man. He says whatever comes to his mind, but it's not very nice. Old Madam Guan Xue was immediately unhappy. Is there any grandfather who would say this to his grandson?

"Master, please be careful with your words. I think this child is very cute. Also, this is called innocence, not stupidity!"

Xiao Lin also laughed awkwardly a few times. Everyone here was his own, so he was a little careless when talking.

"Madam is right. It's good to have a simple grandson. He won't be like the three kids in the old family. They have been a worry since they were young!"

Xiao Zhen didn't expect that his parents had such sharp eyes. They could tell that Xiao Zhi was a "simple" child just by looking at the photo.

"Okay, let's not talk about anything else for now. Today's protagonist is Qing Lin!" Xiao Zhen clapped his hands and couldn't help but remind everyone.

Xiao Lin also said awkwardly: "If you hadn't seen it, I would have forgotten that there is a little princess here?"

Qinglin felt a little embarrassed when she heard her new grandfather calling her little princess. If she hadn't met her adoptive father Xiao Zhen, she would probably still be living with her grandmother in Shimo City, starving every day.

Xiao Lin stroked Qing Lin's little head with his big, calloused hands and said seriously:

"Little girl, now that you have entered our Xiao family and become my granddaughter, Xiao Lin, I wonder if you are interested in taking our Xiao family surname!"

There was confusion in Qinglin's eyes. Her current name was just a random name based on the color of the scales on her hands.

Seeing that there was no objection, Xiao Lin laughed and said, "Since you have no objection, then from now on you will be called Xiao Qing!"

Xiao Qing? This name is really not very nice. Fortunately, when they gave me a name, there were not many messy ones. Otherwise, I would be too embarrassed to go out and see people in the future.

"Who is coming? Please tell me your name!"

"I am Xiao Haha from the Xiao family. Come and die!"

Thinking of such a funny scene, Xiao Zhen couldn't help but burst out laughing.

This smile is not a big deal. What’s important is that Xiao Lin’s eyelids twitched and he said unhappily:

"What do you mean, kid? Are you looking down on the name your father gave me?"

"No, no, no!" Xiao Zhen shook his head and said nonsense: "This name is very good, I have no objection, as long as Qinglin likes it!"

Guan Xue chuckled a few times, took out a dark blue necklace from the ring, and gently put it around Qinglin's neck.

Qinglin looked at the necklace on her neck, her eyes full of little stars.

Guan Xueshan smiled and said, "My dear granddaughter, this is my favorite necklace. It is inlaid with a magic core of a fourth-level water-type monster. It is said to be very good for girls' skin. Grandma will give it to you today!"

Xiao Qinglin finally came to her senses and was a little at a loss for a moment. She didn't know whether she should accept the necklace. After all, it sounded very precious.

Xiao Zhen reminded: "Qinglin, hurry up and thank grandma!"

Qinglin's face immediately turned red with shame, and she said tremblingly, "Thank you...thank you grandma!"

Just as the Xiao family was welcoming the new member, Xiao Zhan hurried in and said anxiously:

"Father...Father, there are guests outside. It's the royal family, led by the Emperor and Tiannan!"
