Chapter 1916: Chapter 1770: A Mercenary Person
Mo Yuyao was quite happy inside, but she still gave Song Yun a side-eye, whispering, "Don’t talk nonsense."
Song Yun chuckled and said to Father Mo and Mother Mo, "Since Yu Yao doesn’t agree, I’ll still call you Uncle Mo and Aunt Gong."
"It doesn’t matter, Xiao Song, call us whatever you feel comfortable with." Gong Xingqin smiled, tugged on her husband’s arm, and turned to walk inside, "We’ll go freshen up and change clothes, you sit tight."
Mo Xiang chuckled and went in with his wife.
Meeting their son-in-law for the first time while dressed casually made them feel a bit embarrassed.
Watching the two elders enter the inner room, Song Yun said to Mo Yuyao, "Your parents are nice people."
"Of course, if they weren’t, how could they have such a wonderful daughter like me?"
Mo Yuyao said proudly, with two sweet dimples appearing on her face.
They say that a single smile can enchant a hundred people, but Mo Yuyao’s smile could enchant thousands.
Looking at Mo Yuyao’s face, Song Yun said, "Yu Yao, you’re so beautiful."
"Flatterer."
Mo Yuyao pouted, sounding displeased, but feeling quite happy inside.
While they were chatting, Mo Xiang and Gong Xingqin came out.
Gong Xingqin said with a smile, "Since we have a special guest today, I’ll go to the supermarket to buy a fish and then cook a chicken to entertain Xiao Song."
With that, she headed out the door.
Mo Xiang sat down; he wasn’t much of a talker and kept glancing at Song Yun, sizing up his future son-in-law.
Before long, two other middle-aged couples arrived - Mo Yuyao’s eldest uncle and third uncle.
Since the children were working or studying abroad, only the elders remained at home.
Seeing Mo Yuyao bring home a boyfriend, everyone was overjoyed, seemingly happier than if they were marrying off their own daughters.
After Mo Yuyao introduced everyone, she said to her eldest uncle and third uncle’s families, "Eldest Uncle, Third Uncle, I brought you a little gift, please take it home."
"Yu Yao, you’ve already been so good to us, how can we accept your gift."
Eldest Uncle and Third Uncle waved their hands in refusal.
"If you don’t want them, I do!"
Whether by coincidence or not, Fourth Uncle walked in, and without a word, grabbed the remaining gift box and headed out.
"If you don’t want them, I do!"
Fourth Uncle walked out with the gift box, not feeling shameless at all, smiling as if he’d just gotten a bargain.
Seeing him like that, everyone in the room was rendered speechless.
Third Uncle, seemingly straightforward, shouted, "Lao Si, what are you doing?! Yu Yao brought these gifts home, and you’re taking all of them? How could you?"
"Aren’t you all refusing them?" Fourth Uncle turned back, pouting, "What? Now you want them, after playing coy just now?"
Third Uncle said angrily, "I and my older brother can refuse them, but how can you take Second Brother’s share? That’s Yu Yao showing respect to her parents, and you took it! How’s that right?"
Fourth Uncle showed a bit of displeasure and looked at Mo Xiang, pouting, "Second Brother, do you want these gifts?"
Mo Xiang frowned slightly and gestured with his hand, "You take them."
"You hear that? Second Brother let me take them, it’s not me wanting to take them."
Fourth Uncle smiled proudly and left the room.
Watching him swagger out, Eldest Uncle sighed, while Third Uncle said unhappily, "That little brat, he really brings shame."
"Let it go, after all, we’re family."
Mo Xiang offered a word of comfort.
Third Aunt tugged at the complaining Third Uncle, smiling, "Xiao Song is still here, don’t let him see this joke."
Third Uncle awkwardly smiled and said to Song Yun, "Xiao Song, don’t mind us, our Mo family is like this. We may squabble, but we’re quite united."
Your family may be united, but Fourth Uncle might not be.
Song Yun thought to himself, smiling, "It’s okay, let Fourth Uncle have those things. I’ll prepare gifts for you all separately."
"No need, no need."
Everyone waved their hands quickly.
After chatting for a bit, Gong Xingqin soon returned.
She went into the kitchen to prepare food while Eldest Aunt, Third Aunt, and Mo Yuyao followed her to help.
Once Mo Yuyao entered the kitchen, Gong Xingqin closed the door and asked, "Yu Yao, have you and Song Yun done ’that thing’ yet?"
"What thing?"
Mo Yuyao replied while washing vegetables.
Third Aunt laughed, "Yu Yao, it’s that thing between a man and a woman."
Mo Yuyao paused, then suddenly realized, her cheeks immediately turned bright red, muttering, "Don’t talk nonsense; nothing’s happened between Song Yun and me."
Eldest Aunt said, "We’ve been through it all, what’s there to hide?"
Gong Xingqin added, "Yu Yao, we have an open mind now, don’t be embarrassed."
Third Aunt chuckled, "Yu Yao, could it be that Song Yun has some issues, and you’re too embarrassed to say anything?"
The women were speaking without any filters, and now they were teasing Mo Yuyao.
Mo Yuyao stomped her foot, pouting, "If you keep talking nonsense, I’m leaving."
Eldest Aunt laughed, "Alright, alright, we won’t talk any more nonsense."
Gong Xingqin glanced at her daughter, and said seriously, "But on a serious note, Yu Yao, you never smiled at any other boy before, but with Song Yun, you always have a smile, and as your mom, I can tell it’s genuine, a particularly sweet smile. Whether or not you two have done that, as long as you’re happy, that’s enough for me."
Mo Yuyao nodded, "Mom, don’t worry, Song Yun is a good person, and he treats me very well."
Third Aunt laughed, "I could tell already; just now when you smiled at him, it was like you were smitten."
Eldest Aunt said, "Our Yu Yao has finally developed feelings; she used to always keep a stern face towards boys."
