You make money, I spend it, the rich stepmother is happy

Qi Mo came home from get off work, and before he reached the living room, he heard Sheng Mumu's voice.

"No, come again, read after me—"

Walking through the entrance, I saw Sheng Mumu slapping Qi Shaobai's head with a paper fan.

"Mispronounced, come again."

Qi Shaobai turned his head quietly, and saw Qi Mo who had just returned home.

I didn't expect to be beaten at the age of 17 because I couldn't recite words.

He was ashamed and helpless, but he knew in his heart that Sheng Mumu was doing it for his own good, so he didn't dare to refute.

It's just that the look in his father's eyes couldn't help but beg for help.

Qi Shaobai knew very well in his heart that his cold father would not save him.

But he still tried to ask a question:

"Dad, I have a limited edition Lego I've been wanting to buy but I can't find it. Can you ask Te Dong to help me find it?"

Sheng Mu Mushui half-closed her eyes, clasped her hands on Qi Shaobai's head, forced him back, and glared at him:

"Why? Even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu is here, you have to learn these grammars today."

"Don't try to change the subject."

"Come on, go ahead, I'll test you..."

Qi Shaobai: ...

Qi Mo's eyes were slightly raised, but he didn't speak.

Slowly took off his suit jacket, put it on his forearm, and went upstairs with light steps.

Qi Shaobai took a deep breath and accepted the reality as if resigned to his fate.

really.

His dad wouldn't be on his side.

……

10 minute later.

Sheng Mumu finally realized how difficult it is to be a teacher.

Especially when facing a student like Qi Shaobai.

She can clearly feel it.

It's not that Qi Shaobai is incapable of learning English well, but he resists from the bottom of his heart.

She secretly thought that she must find an opportunity to have a good heart-to-heart talk with Xiao Qi.

Let him eliminate his prejudice against this course from the bottom of his heart and generate motivation, so that it is possible to improve his grades.

While Sheng Mumu was thinking about this, Qi Shaobai was still pinching the sticky note, comparing the example sentences in the teaching aids, and memorizing them by rote, as if pouring bitter medicine into his head.

The expression became more and more painful.

Suddenly, the screen of the mobile phone on the table lit up.

Seeing the name flashing on the screen, Qi Shaobai's eyes lit up.

The savior has come.

Connect to a video call.

A friendly voice came out.

"Little one."

Sheng Mumu didn't know, so she blinked, and found that Qi Shaobai's usually cold and unruly face had a rare expression that could be called "enthusiasm".

Qi Shaobai smiled brightly into the phone, "Grandma."

Sheng Mumu paused slightly.

Too grandma?

Qi Mo's grandma?

Sheng Mumu quietly cast his eyes on the screen.

An old lady with gray hair appeared on the screen.

"What are you doing, little one?" the old lady asked with concern.

Qi Shaobai turned his phone to the side, deliberately let the old lady see the supplementary books on the table as if asking for credit, and said:

"I'm reciting English."

The old lady said: "Yo, okay, it's a good thing to know that you have to work hard after the third year of high school."

Because the camera angle changed, Sheng Mumu accidentally entered the mirror.

"Mu Mu, are you studying with the little one?" The old lady was surprised to find that Sheng Mumu was there, and she smiled even more, and asked, "How about the big one? Are you at home?"

Qi Shaobai answered, "Dad is upstairs."

Sheng Mumu was stunned.

puff!

Big deal!

Unexpectedly, Qi Mo with a cold aura, and Qi Shaobai with a thorny body.

In the eyes of the old lady, they are "big ones" and "small ones".

Who will believe it?

Sheng Mumu read from the old lady's words that she wanted to see Qi Mo, and instantly switched to the cute and sensible mode.

Facing the screen, he said, "Grandma, I'll call him down."

She made it very clear that a loving couple must perform a full set of acting.

Especially in front of the old lady who arranged their marriage, it became more and more necessary to look watertight.

She went to the stairs and shouted upstairs:

"Husband, grandma is calling."

It was very fluent, and there was no sense of disobedience.

Qi Mo was flipping through the documents in the study, when he heard the movement, the hand holding the pen stopped suddenly.

Therefore, Qi Dabudian Mo also joined the video conversation.

The three of them crowded in front of the mobile phone screen, and it was a little difficult to get all of them into the camera.

Qi Shaobai took the phone a little further away.

Seeing this, Qi Mo naturally put his arms around Sheng Mumu's shoulders.

Bring your head back.

He was much taller than her, and Sheng Mumu could feel that as long as the top of her head was lifted up a few centimeters, she could hit his chin.

All around is his aura.

Very nice smell.

Qi Mo bent his eyes, with a smile on his face, and shouted to the other side of the screen: "Grandma."

This was a tone Sheng Mumu had never heard before.

Gentle, gentle, warm.

It was very different from his usual appearance of rejecting people thousands of miles away.

The old lady smiled from ear to ear when she saw the three of them gathered together.

She had been worried before whether the marriage she arranged was suitable or not.

Can Big Budian and Mumu get along in harmony?

Although Qi Zhai's mother Zhang would pass small news to her every now and then, she always said to reassure her.

But after all, seeing is believing, how can she be completely relieved.

Seeing with my own eyes today that the three of them get along harmoniously, my heart that has been hanging has finally sank.

After chatting a few words about homework, the old lady suddenly asked:

"Mumu, are they treating you well? Did they bully you? If they bully you, tell grandma, grandma will help you out."

Hearing these words, Sheng Mumu's nose turned sour and his eyes were hot.

Although it was the first time she saw the old lady today, she felt very familiar for no reason.

Reminds her of her grandma.

Bad elders may be vicious in all sorts of ways.

But good elders, the warmth is always the same.

Thinking that in the original book, the old lady will die in less than a year.

She felt her heart constricted and her eyes were sore and swollen.

Taking advantage of the moment when he lowered his head, he gently pressed the corners of his eyes to stop the heat that kept coming up.

When she looked up again, she smiled.

"Grandma, don't worry, they don't dare to bully me. But you, you must pay attention to your health, come to Beijing early, we all want to see you."

The old lady: "I've been very busy recently, so I won't be able to visit you guys until later."

Qi Mo smiled when he heard this, "What have you been up to lately?"

The old lady raised her chin proudly.

"I signed up for a Tai Chi sword class at the University for the Elderly. There are three classes a week. The teacher praised me that I am no slower than 60-something youngsters. When I come to Beijing, I will show you a trick."

Sheng Mumu burst out laughing, the pear vortex sank, and he agreed very flatteringly:

"Okay, when the time comes, I'll take a picture of it for you and make it into an electronic photo album, colorful and colorful, so that you can become the coolest old lady in the senior university."

The old lady nodded hurriedly, "Okay, okay!"

After Qi Shaobai asked the old lady a few homely words with concern, the video call hung up in a joyful and peaceful atmosphere.

The phone suddenly went dark.

Reflections of the three of them appeared on the blacked out screen.

Sheng Mumu suddenly saw Qi Moyang smiling and looking at him from the reflection.

Her breathing stopped suddenly.

The atmosphere became a little subtle.

The presence of the big palm that fell on her shoulder became more and more obvious.
