Chapter 761: Chapter 761

Grandma Xiao said, "There’s an old saying that if you have a little boy by the pregnant woman’s side, she can give birth to a boy."

The mind of young Master Bai crashed.

Gu Nuan couldn’t help but glance at his obviously dumbfounded expression, clearly, he had been fooled by Zhao Zirong. She just didn’t know what exactly Zhao Zirong had tricked him into.

Seeing the shocked look on his face was quite a blow.

How could the young friend not be struck? Because the reality in his mind was far from what he had imagined, the complete opposite.

Master Bai was seething inside, gritting his teeth in anger. He thought his brother-in-law seemed to be an upright and honest gentleman, but it turned out to be such a swindle.

"Let’s all sit down," Grandma Xiao said, as if she hadn’t seen the expression on her grandson’s face. Her gaze was fixed only on Gu Nuan’s belly as she immediately asked, "Have you been to the doctor yet?"

"I’ve already reached out to Professor Tang, and we were planning to go this afternoon," Xiao Yebai said.

As for Tang Sili being the attending doctor for the pregnant woman, this had already been discussed last time, and Grandma Xiao had no objections.

The only thing Grandma Xiao wanted to emphasize was, "She can’t take care of herself on her own, she needs to move back here."

This was precisely what Xiao Yebai and Gu Nuan were worried about.

Gu Nuan definitely didn’t want to be confined by an elderly person to stay at home and nurture the fetus. She was very healthy and didn’t need to be trapped at home without being able to move.

Xiao Yebai felt the same way.

If his wife was confined at home, how could she accompany him out to play?

"Grandma, the place we’re staying in is quite nice—"

"Don’t talk nonsense. Do I not know where you guys live? That tiny place, it’s not even enough for the three of you—," Grandma Xiao said incisively.

Little Pudding rolled his eyes and said, "Uncle and Auntie’s bed is really big, it’s no problem for several people to sleep on it."

The child’s words made both Auntie Gu and Uncle Bai immediately feel embarrassed.

Xiao Shuzhu couldn’t help but snort and quickly covered her mouth.

Indeed, their brother’s bed was huge, enormous.

"Grandma, there are also many people here at your place. If we don’t have enough room to stay, we can find another place. You don’t have to worry about it," Xiao Yebai continued trying to persuade the elderly woman to change her mind.

Grandma Xiao immediately looked toward her three granddaughters, "You mean them?"

Xiao Shuzhu immediately stepped forward and said, "It’s okay for me to live in that smaller room. It’s just right since my sister-in-law is not convenient, and she needs someone to take care of her. I’ve had two children, and there’s no one better than me to stay and take care of my sister-in-law."

"What are you talking about?" Xiao Shulan wouldn’t be left behind and followed up on her younger sister, contradicting her, "Can those two kids of yours listen to you? Don’t teach my sister-in-law’s child bad habits. I’m the most suitable to take care of my sister-in-law because I don’t have children and have the most love for the unborn child."

When it came to the always ambitious Xiao Shulan, she was surprisingly low-key at this time, declaring her support for Grandma’s arrangement, "I’m busy at my company, unless there’s a family emergency, I won’t be coming back to stay."

Grandma Xiao raised her eyebrows, pleased, and said to her grandson and his wife, "There’s enough place to stay now, right?"

Gu Nuan’s eyebrows tightened as she feared, and sure enough, her young companion Bai blurted out, "Grandma, this place of yours, it’s not about the size, it’s whether you can accommodate Nuannuan’s family or not." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel⁂fire.net

"What?" Grandma Xiao was shocked in her heart, "You mean her family is coming? Why are they coming?"

"Nuannuan’s having her first child; how could my in-laws not be anxious? They are definitely going to come take care of Nuannuan. Grandma, if you want us to live here, you need to think it through, my in-laws will have to stay here too," Bai said without any reservations.

When little friend spoke, he was always blunt.

Although this was an issue that would have to be faced sooner or later, Grandma Xiao was instantly silenced by her grandson’s words, her face naturally looking displeased, as she complained, "So now that you have a wife, you have no grandmother?"

Bai, with legs crossed and calm and composed, said, "Grandma, if you say this out loud, everyone knows I’m telling the truth. She is her parents’ daughter; without her parents, would she be here to be my wife and bear your great-grandchild? Grandma, if you don’t respect her parents, how can that be right?"

Gu Nuan did not expect that her husband would suddenly speak such a stern and righteous plea on her parents’ behalf, sending a wave of emotion through her.

Looking at Grandma Xiao, who was now silent, there wasn’t much left to say.

Reaching this point in the conversation, there wasn’t much else to be said. Xiao Yebai told the elderly, "When Grandma has thought it through, give us a call."

Mother gains status due to her child.

What is meant by gaining status due to one’s child.

It isn’t until you reach this critical moment that you really see it.

Gu Nuan couldn’t help but admire in her heart, thinking that the idea hadn’t been hers to start with but his.

Compared to her, this man knew better how to teach a woman to be a sly vixen.

The three sisters of the Xiao family exchanged looks, all thinking: Maybe this matter is void now?

It seemed that Xiao Jianming had the foresight not to follow Grandma Xiao in causing a fuss.

Xiao Yebai pulled up his wife, just about to take his leave.

Grandma Xiao suddenly spoke up, saying to them, "Let her parents come over."

"Meet her parents, like you said. I’m not going to skin them. With you there, I can’t skin them even if I wanted to."
