Tang Youyou didn"t expect to b.u.mp into the old lady so coincidentally. Her expression was a little stiff.
When the old lady saw Tang Youyou carrying the suitcase, she asked casually, "Are you going to move out tonight?"
"Yes sir!" Tang Youyou nodded and replied in a light tone.
"Grandmother, we will meet again in the future!" Tang Xiaorui immediately waved his hand. The old lady was shocked when he said that. Then, he looked at the two kids behind Tang Youyou and saw that they were both carrying a small traveling case. The old lady instantly turned pale with fright.
"Xiaorui, Xiaonai, where are you going?" The old lady had thought that the two little fellows would stay behind. After all, the living conditions of Ji Family were much better than that of Tang Youyou"s.
Tang Xiaonai immediately sighed, "great-grandmother, I asked you to persuade my mother to stay, but you refused to help me. Now, I can only leave with my mother, I will miss you!"
The old lady"s expression turned ugly as she stared at Tang Youyou.
However, Tang Youyou calmly explained, "I"m sorry, old lady. I was the one who brought up with the child. If I were to leave, they would naturally follow me!"
"Tang Youyou, what do you mean by this? Children are a part of our Ji Family, you ca
ot take them away! " The old lady"s tone became heavier the moment she thought of losing her two precious grandchildren, reminding Tang Youyou of this fact without any hesitation.
Tang Youyou knew that these two children were the elder"s lifeblood, but they were also her most important children.
Tang Xiaorui and Tang Xiaonai also looked at the old lady in surprise. To them, their great-grandmother had always been kind and gentle, but they didn"t expect her to use such a tone to talk to Mommy.
"Grandmother, please don"t be mean to my mother. You didn"t want her to live here, and my mother didn"t do anything wrong." Tang Xiaorui immediately stood out to protect Mommy.
Tang Youyou immediately frowned and rebuked, "Xiaorui, you can"t use this tone to talk to great-grandma."
When the old lady heard that the little guy was so protective of Tang Youyou, she was stu
ed once again.
"Xiaorui, you are the child of our Ji Family, you and your sister must stay. I did not stop your mother from seeing you guys, as long as you miss her, you can get Uncle Yun to send you over anytime. My great-grandmother will be very kind to you. " The old lady also discovered that she couldn"t curse Tang Youyou in front of her children. This would ruin her good impression.
"I"m really sorry, great-grandmother. I won"t leave my mother, and my sister won"t leave either." Tang Xiaorui imitated the tone of the adults.
The old lady immediately looked anxious as she looked at Tang Youyou. "You should persuade the children. They will listen to you!"
Tang Youyou"s face turned red when she saw the old lady"s anxious face. Somehow, she felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart. Didn"t the old lady like to be conflicted over the grudges between the younger generation?
"Old lady, it"s not like the children aren"t sensible. I"ve already advised them, but they insisted on leaving with me. You were also a mother, so you know that it"s impossible for the children to leave your mother." Tang Youyou"s tone was indifferent, making the old lady even more frustrated.
The old lady always felt that Tang Youyou did it on purpose.
"Grandmother, there"s only one way for us to stay. Don"t let Mommy leave." Tang Xiaorui immediately took the opportunity to negotiate.
The old lady somehow hated Tang Youyou. She said righteously, "No, your mommy can"t stay here. It would be a joke if she did."
"Grandmother, how did my mother become a joke?" Tang Xiaorui immediately pouted unhappily.
Tang Xiaonai immediately followed and asked loudly, "That"s right, my mommy isn"t a joke."
The old lady saw that the two little guys were unreasonable, so she told them the truth: "Xiaorui, Xiaonai, I wonder if you can understand what great-grandmother said. Your mother and father are siblings now, do you know? Wouldn"t it be a joke if we lived together? "
"Siblings?" The two kids understood the term. Tang Xiaonai"s head was still full of question marks, but Tang Xiaorui already understood the complex relations.h.i.+p between the two.
Tang Youyou"s face was stiff and pale. She said angrily, "Old lady, how can you tell them about this? They are too young to accept such a fact. "
The old lady snorted, "If I don"t tell them the truth, they might think we bullied you."
Tang Xiaorui immediately looked up and asked Tang Youyou in confusion, "Mommy, how could you and Daddy be siblings?"
Tang Youyou"s face was pale, but she could not answer her son"s question.
The old lady answered directly on her behalf, "Because your mother"s father married your father"s mother."
The expressions on the two little fellows were stu
ed once again.
"Mommy, didn"t you say that our grandparents are no longer alive? When did another grandfather appear and marry our grandmother? " Tang Xiaorui was quite smart, so he quickly understood the meaning behind the old lady"s words.
Tang Youyou said irritably, "We"ve only just found out about this matter. We haven"t been clear about it before."
"Then it"s over. Your relations.h.i.+p with Father is so chaotic!" Tang Xiaorui realized the seriousness of the situation, and his face was full of sadness.
However, Tang Xiaonai was still asking foolishly, "What grandfather married grandmother? Why can"t I understand?"
The old lady huffed, "It"s embarra.s.sing to say it. Tang Youyou, explain it to the children!"
Tang Youyou sighed and squatted down, gently stroking her son and daughter"s hair, "You guys won"t be able to understand this in a while. How about, you stay here tonight, and wait for Mommy to clean up before taking you guys over?"
"Mommy, we really want to go with you!" Tang Xiaorui suddenly found out that Mommy was really pitiful. If he let her leave here alone, his heart would definitely ache to death.
When the old lady saw that the two kids were determined to leave with Tang Youyou after she told them the truth, she could only say dejectedly, "Why don"t you move on and stay here? I"ll let Xiaohan move back to the mountain villa from now on if you stay here!"
Tang Youyou"s eyes lit up slightly as she looked at the old lady and asked, "Can I really still live here?"
"Humph, I told you to take care of the two children, but I didn"t tell you to continue getting entangled with Xiaohan. You have to be clear about each other!" The old lady reminded her in dissatisfaction.
Tang Youyou actually knew that the old lady allowed her to stay here because of her child, but why was her heart filled with joy?
