CHAPTER 51: CHAPTER 51: THEN SHOULD YOU CALL ME GRANDPA?

Xiao Li looked bewildered at the man in front of her. How does it feel when a stranger about your age calls you grandma?

Qin Xiao had just come out from his uncle’s study with Qin Tan, and he saw Wen Zeyu staring at Xiao Li, then running over to call Xiao Li "grandma"...

Qin Xiao’s face darkened, and he quickly stepped forward, inserting himself between them, "If you call her grandma, are you planning to call me grandpa?"

Xiao Li: .....

Wen Zeyu was momentarily confused, and said, puzzled, "Brother Qin, what do you mean? Jumping out to take advantage of me, for what?"

Qin Xiao snorted, "You think I want to take that advantage! It’s you who is eager to become my grandson!"

Wen Zeyu flared up, "When did I ever eagerly want to..."

The last few words got stuck in Wen Zeyu’s throat.

Qin Xiao smirked, "Weren’t you just calling my wife grandma? If you call her grandma, doesn’t that mean you have to call me grandpa..."

Upon hearing this, Wen Zeyu pointed at Xiao Li and then at Qin Xiao...

"She... she is your wife..."

Qin Xiao pulled Xiao Li over, "Otherwise what..."

The commotion attracted everyone’s attention, and many people were looking over here...

However, most of them just thought these young people were joking and didn’t pay much attention...

Xu Fenglian, who was chatting with the old lady of the Zhen Family inside, heard that some youngsters were making noise outside, so she came out for some fun...

As soon as she saw what was happening, Xu Fenglian understood what was going on.

She quickly laughed and spoke to help Wen Zeyu out, "Qin Family boy, don’t be angry, there’s a misunderstanding here..."

When Wen Zeyu saw Xu Fenglian come out, he called out, "Third Aunt."

Xu Fenglian smiled, "You guys come inside with me, and I’ll explain to you..."

Since Xu Fenglian stepped in, Qin Xiao had to give her some face as an elder, so he held Xiao Li’s hand and followed her inside.

Wen Zeyu also followed inside in a bit of a daze...

Once inside, the old lady from the Zhen Family, seeing Xu Fenglian had brought Xiao Li and the others in, laughed and said, "What’s up, have you not seen enough and brought my granddaughter-in-law in for a more detailed look later?"

Xu Fenglian shook her head with a smile, "Not at all, I was just saying to you that people from Wen Er-ge’s side would be surprised to see your granddaughter-in-law.

It turns out outside, they already met, and coincidentally, it was Wen Er-ge’s little grandson who is not reliable at all, came and called your granddaughter-in-law grandma.

This angered your grandson, making him call himself grandpa."

The old lady of the Zhen Family also smiled helplessly upon hearing this, "Hahaha... Aren’t people unpredictable, just mentioned it and they met."

The three standing below were a bit bewildered, watching those two elders laugh heartily on their own...

After Xu Fenglian and the old lady of the Zhen Family finished laughing, they kindly explained to them.

Xu Fenglian pulled Xiao Li’s hand, "Child, when I first saw you outside, I was also a bit surprised by your appearance.

You look a lot like someone who is Wen Zeyu’s real grandmother.

The reason he mistakenly called you his grandma is that you look too much like his grandma, it wasn’t like he was making a deliberate joke, randomly calling someone grandma..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Li finally understood why Xu Fenglian was looking at her like that before, and Wen Zeyu’s strange reaction.

It was also at this moment that Xiao Li realized that the boy calling her grandma was surnamed Wen, and her mother also came from the Wen Family in B City, though she wasn’t sure if it was the same Wen Family?

Although Xiao Li had her suspicions inside, her face didn’t show it at all. She smiled at Xu Fenglian and said, "So it was a case of mistaken identity, that’s alright then..."

After explaining to Xiao Li, Xu Fenglian turned to Wen Zeyu and playfully scolded, "Zeyu boy, with such big eyes, how come you can’t see clearly?

Though she looks like your grandma, she’s much younger than your grandma.

Moreover, your grandma has been gone for two years, yet this person is standing here alive...

Why didn’t you think it through before calling her grandma, deservedly let people take advantage, making you call grandpa..."

Realizing the whole misunderstanding, Wen Zeyu, feeling a bit embarrassed, scratched the back of his head awkwardly, "Brother Qin, Sister-in-law Qin, I’m sorry! Just now I made a fool of myself."

Xiao Li smiled and said, "It’s alright, it was all just a misunderstanding..."

Qin Xiao tugged at the corner of his mouth, saying "Nothing wrong."

Although he now knew that Wen Zeyu mistook someone else for Xiao Li, he was still somewhat displeased...

After explaining with a smile, Xu Fenglian said to the old lady of the Zhen Family, "It was serendipitous today, the one from Wen Er-ge’s family who came was the most unreliable kid, hence this joke got unfold. Had it been my niece-in-law who came, this wouldn’t have happened...

This kid is the least like a member of the Wen Family in this generation, neither showing any scholarly presence, appearing rather dorky.

Zeyu boy, how come your mother didn’t come today?"

Wen Zeyu promptly explained to the old lady, "Just about to explain to the madam, my mother twisted her ankle in her own garden yesterday, so she couldn’t make it..."

The old lady smiled, "I see! Well, let her take care, we will gather another time..."

Wen Zeyu replied with a smile, "Yes."

After a bit more casual chatting, Xiao Li, Qin Xiao, and Wen Zeyu then went outside.

Once outside, Wen Zeyu couldn’t help glancing at Xiao Li now and then, which started to blacken Qin Xiao’s face...

To prevent Wen Zeyu from looking at Xiao Li, Qin Xiao directly took Xiao Li to find little Mianmian, keeping a distance from Wen Zeyu.

Wen Zeyu, clearly aware of Qin Xiao’s displeasure, innocently rubbed his nose, realizing that focusing on Xiao Li was inappropriate, but Xiao Li just looked so much like his grandma, he couldn’t help it...

When Xiao Li and the slightly irritated Qin Xiao found the Qin mother to look for Mianmian, Qin mother was playing with Mianmian along with Wen Xin and other ladies, and upon looking up, noticed Qin Xiao’s dark expression and asked Xiao Li with her eyes: What’s wrong?

Xiao Li softly shook her head, indicating nothing was wrong.

Seeing this, Qin mother simply handed Mianmian into Qin Xiao’s arms, and then told Xiao Li, "Just as you two came, I noticed Mianmian seems a bit tired from playing, why don’t you take her to rest a bit..."

Xiao Li smiled and said, "Yes."

The two carried Mianmian to the guest room of the Zhen Family, Mianmian indeed seemed worn out as she fell asleep shortly.

Once the child fell asleep, Xiao Li finally coaxed Qin Xiao, "Still angry?"

Qin Xiao shook his head, pulling Xiao Li into his arms, "No. I wasn’t angry with you."

Xiao Li smiled, "Alright, wasn’t it because I looked similar to his grandma that he took a few more glances.

I heard from Madam Wen that Wen Zeyu’s grandma has passed away, so it’s rare to see someone who looks like her, it’s understandable he glanced a couple more times, let’s not hold it against him."
