Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“How am I supposed to drop a hint? Third Cousin is so nice that he has to worry about everything. I will feel that I’m letting him down if I tell him this. He’s not doing it on purpose, but it seems that every time something goes wrong, everyone looks for him first.”
Gu Qingyao still doted on her Third Cousin.
Gu Qingyao felt that Gu Jinlin was a very kind man. Although he was slightly less capable than Oldest Cousin, Second Cousin and Fourth Cousin, he was very nice!
Besides, he was much more outstanding than the average person!
Not everyone could be as amazing as Second Cousin and Fourth Cousin!
Mo Beihan said, “Third Cousin is so nice, of course we must help him. Circ.u.mstances are great now and the economy is recovering. The streets are paved with gold. Even if Third Cousin’s business sense is not so good… I’m sure he can manage some business of his own?
“His standard of living will be pretty good in the future. After all, he is a grandchild of the Gu family. If we just give him a few pointers, he will do very well.
“Although his abilities are far inferior to Second and Fourth Cousin, he can go into real estate. He can have a good life just by collecting rent!”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
Mo Beihan laughed at Gu Qingyao’s stunned expression. “It’s true! One pregnancy will make you foolish for three years! My little girl used to be so clever, but now that you’re pregnant, your brain isn’t working anymore. Wow! Pregnancy is really tough!”
Mo Beihan looked down at her slight b.u.mp. “If the brat is a boy, I’ll train him properly to run the household and earn money. His mother has spent so much effort nurturing him, surely he cannot waste his mother’s intellect for nothing.”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
Gu Qingyao smiled faintly and glared at him. “Am I really very stupid now?”
Pregnancy made one foolish for three years?
Had she really become stupid?
Surely not!
Mo Beihan guffawed. He was amused by his wife’s adorable expression. He leaned over and kissed her little face hard. “No, my wife is the smartest!”
…
Two days later, Ji Mingyue called and asked Gu Qingyao to stay with her for a few days. She was bored to death at home!
The two pregnant women were being coddled by their families. Ji Mingyue felt as though she was drowning in sweetness. But many girls in the capital envied her because of this.
She was different from Gu Qingyao. Gu Qingyao came from a powerful family and was truly a young lady from an important family. Although marrying into the Mo family had attracted much envy, few dared to say anything against her.
Things were different for Ji Mingyue.
In the capital, her status was considered to be ordinary. Her life had only improved after she had gotten together with Gu Jinhang.
One might say that Gu Jinhang had elevated her life to the next level.
Many were jealous of her and hoped that she would fall from favor. There were even some who sought to harm her.
Ever since she had gotten pregnant, Gu Jinhang had not allowed her to go to school. He was worried that some young girls in the school might hurt Ji Mingyue on impulse.
It usually would not matter, but now that Ji Mingyue was pregnant, there was no room for mishaps.
Ji Mingyue spent every day at home, resting. She was very bored and liked Gu Qingyao to keep her company.
When Mo Beihan found out, he brought Gu Qingyao over.
After breakfast, she packed some things and went to the Gu house. When they arrived, Ji Mingyue had just gotten up.
Gu Qingyao and Mo Beihan were just entering when she came downstairs.
“Yao Yao, you’re here!”
