Chapter 224: Parents of the Gu Family
An emerald colored necklace was lying in the box. Under the illumination of the lights, it emitted a soft and bright glow.
Jiang Tingxu was not familiar with jewelry. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for her to remain calm.
The origin of this emerald necklace was not simple. It belonged to the royal family of Country Y and had a history of more than a hundred years.
It was said that the Queen Mother’s grandmother, the d.u.c.h.ess of Cambridge, and her husband had coincidentally partic.i.p.ated in a charity auction in Country D and had bought a box containing the emeralds that Country Y had obtained from the Indian royal family.
The Duke of Cambridge had given some of the emeralds to his son, but his son gave it to his lover...
Later, when the Queen Mother found out about it, she was very angry. After her uncle’s death, the Queen Mother quickly took back the emeralds from her uncle’s lover.
She then gave them to the second generation, who then pa.s.sed them on to his daughter-in-law...
No wonder even the little one could not help but be amazed after seeing them.
With a bang, the box was closed.
“You’ve seen them too. Isn’t it time to sleep?”
The little one made an ‘oh ‘sound and climbed onto the bed with his short legs.
After putting the box into the drawer of the bedside cabinet, Jiang Tingxu lay down beside her son.
...
The next day, early in the morning.
After was.h.i.+ng up, the mother and son seemed to be in a very good mood. Both the big and the small faces were full of smiles. The small person even took the initiative to shove his small hand into his mother’s hand. After that, the mother and son held hands as they left the room and went to the main building.
Who knew that the moment they entered the room, they would see two unfamiliar figures sitting on the sofa.
The old man and Uncle Jin were not around. Father Mo sat at the side reading the newspaper and did not speak much. Mother Mo also spoke a few words from time to time. It was obvious that she was distancing herself from them.
However, the two guests did not seem to know about it.
Or, they chose to pretend that they did not know.
“Mu Ling, we haven’t seen each other for many years. I heard that you and Tianhan have been visiting South America for the past two years?”
Mother Mo sipped her tea and nodded:
“Yes.”
“That’s great. I’m so envious of you two.”
Mother Mo put down her teacup and raised her eyebrows:
“What’s there to be envious about? You and s.h.i.+yu’s father can go too!”
“D*mn, how could we possibly be as lucky as Muling and Tianhan? At home, at the company, there are a lot of troublesome matters waiting to be dealt with. s.h.i.+yu, that child, is even more ignorant about business matters. Her father and I are super busy every day. We don’t even dare to think about traveling.”
So it was Gu s.h.i.+yu’s parents. However, they had come before mealtime. Weren’t they a little too anxious?
Mother Mo actually didn’t feel like speaking. However, with her upbringing, it was impossible for her to ignore the guests.
At this moment, she caught a glimpse of the mother and son standing outside the door and hurriedly said,
“Are you two up? Come, come. Prepare to eat breakfast. We were just waiting for you two.” She beckoned at them.
“Good Morning, Grandma. Good Morning, Grandpa.”
The little guy greeted her obediently. As for the other two guests, the adults didn’t introduce them. Anyway, they didn’t know each other, so there was no need to greet them.
Jiang Tingxu let go of her son’s hand and patted his back gently. The little guy rushed into Mother Mo’s arms.
“Grandma, Grandma.” The little guy was very sweet.
He made Mother Mo very happy:
“Good, good, good. Grandma’s good grandson, are you hungry?”
“Yes!” He nodded.
“Okay, Grandma will go to the kitchen and ask them to bring out the food. We can’t let our good grandson starve.”
“Thank you, Grandma. Grandma is the best.”
Even Father Mo, who was standing beside her, had put down the newspaper in antic.i.p.ation.
