Chapter 625: Uncle Is So Nice
“Look at Zhiqian. It’s a good thing that he met Momo. Otherwise, he would have been single for the rest of his life. He doesn’t like other people, but he also thinks that he has a good life.”
“Then we will raise Momo for the rest of our life.” Tan Wenci had already planned this, “I really can’t bear to let her get married. What if she gets bullied after she gets married? She might as well stay at home and be happy with her three older brothers spoiling her. When she gets old, her nieces and nephews will be filial to her.”
The old lady: “…”
Judging from Tan Wenci’s tone, it seemed like he had been thinking about it for a long time.
“In-laws, look at our family. Can we bully Momo? Even just holding her is too late for us to feel pain,” the old man also said.
Tan Wenci’s teeth hurt when he heard the word in-laws. He really couldn’t bear to hear it.
“No, the two children are just dating. It’s not to the extent of marriage.” They were not even in-laws.
“So, you agree?” Wei Mingwen blinked his eyes and pretended to be innocent.
Tan Wenci: “…”
He really wanted to tell Wei Mingwen that he was not suited for this expression.
The sly and cunning head of the Wei family, why did he pretend to be a fool!
Look at how accurate Wei Mingwen’s timing was.
It was so accurate Tan Wenci could not speak for a long time.
“No.” Tan Wenci gritted his teeth and insisted.
“Dad!” Tan Mo simply stood up and ran behind Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen. She was so sad that she wanted to cry, “Since young, whatever I like, you all satisfy me. But now that I like Uncle, why won’t you all approve?”
“Uncle is so good.” Tan Mo said with red eyes.
He’s such a good uncle. She couldn’t stand anyone saying anything bad about him, not even her own family.
“I’m not…” Tan Wenci really had no words to say.
The four Wei family members across from him were all looking at him with eager eyes.
It made it difficult for him to say anything about Wei Zhiqian that he was dissatisfied with.
“I don’t think Uncle is old. When I’m with Uncle, I know what it feels like to like him. I didn’t misunderstand my feelings.” Tan Mo’s voice was a little shaky as if she was going to cry in the next second.
“My uncle actually told me that he was worried that I had met too few people and that I had been protected too well since I was young. As I didn’t have much experience with boys, if I were to be with him so early, he thought that I might meet someone I like even more in the future.”
Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen were slightly stunned. Their gazes landed on Wei Zhiqian’s face at the same time.
They didn’t expect Wei Zhiqian to say such words to Tan Mo.
No one doubted Tan Mo’s words.
Although the Tan family members despised Wei Zhiqian, they also believed that this was something Wei Zhiqian could say.
“But I know that it won’t happen. I just like Uncle,” Tan Mo said firmly, “No one understands my feelings better than I do. Including Uncle, he can’t stand up and say that I don’t understand my feelings, or that he knows what I want more than I do.”
The Tan family members couldn’t tell if they were upset, sad, or angry. Their eyes were red, and they were trying very hard to hide their feelings.
They knew that Tan Mo wasn’t talking about Wei Zhiqian.
Tan Mo was talking about them!
They had said that Tan Mo might not like Wei Zhiqian but was used to being with Wei Zhiqian since she was young. She was used to Wei Zhiqian being nice to only her and hence might have misunderstood her feelings towards Wei Zhiqian.
That was why Tan Mo had said these words.
She could not directly point out that she was saying it to her family, so she used Wei Zhiqian’s name.
She was afraid that if she directly pointed out her family, her parents and brothers would be sad. She also wanted to care about the face and feelings of her parents and brothers.
But she was not afraid that Wei Zhiqian would be unhappy if he heard it.
This was Tan Mo’s love for her family.
But wasn’t it also her trust in Wei Zhiqian?
She knew that no matter what she said, Wei Zhiqian would tolerate her.
She knew that although she said this, Wei Zhiqian would not be sad because he knew her intention.
The trust and tacit understanding between the two people were what stimulated the hearts of the Tan family members.
The old lady knew that in front of them, the Tan family had a lot to say.
At Wei Zhiqian’s age, finding an 18-year-old girl to be his girlfriend was a huge advantage.
Moreover, Tan Mo had always called Wei Zhiqian his uncle.
Not to mention the Tan family, even after 12 years, they were already used to it, thinking that Wei Zhiqian was Tan Mo’s uncle.
But now, Wei Zhiqian told them that he was no longer Tan Mo’s uncle, he wanted to be Tan Mo’s boyfriend.
Even they were shocked, let alone the Tan family.
The little girl was only 18.
The old lady asked Wei Mingwen and Xiao Menghan in a low voice, “What do the two of you think? I’ve always hoped that Zhiqian would fall in love and start a family. But no matter what, your father and I are only Zhiqian’s grandparents. We’re separated by a generation. We can urge Zhiqian’s feelings, but we can’t interfere too much. As his parents, it depends on your att.i.tude.”
Tan Wenci’s eyebrows moved. Could it be that the old lady didn’t agree with Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo being together?
But just now, she even called their in-laws.
“Dad, mom, we are more than willing,” Xiao Menghan said. “We have always treated Momo as a daughter.”
Everyone in the Tan family: “…”
Wasn’t she a grandniece?
Did she become a daughter just like that?
“Back then, when Momo was six years old, I even wanted to treat her as my G.o.ddaughter.” Speaking of which, Xiao Menghan rolled her eyes at Wei Zhiqian, “In the end, this child asked Momo to call him Uncle. Don’t you think it’s awkward to call her niece?”
“I also stopped thinking about it. In my heart, I said that the seniority was just on the surface. In any case, I’ll still treat Momo as my daughter and dote on her.” Xiao Menghan said, “I don’t have a daughter of my own, so I’m really happy to have Momo.”
“Looking at it now, it’s fortunate that I didn’t take her as my G.o.ddaughter. Otherwise, the relations.h.i.+p between Zhiqian and Momo would be more or less difficult now.” Xiao Menghan said with a smile, “We husband and wife have watched Momo for 12 years. We know and are familiar with her. When she and Zhiqian are together, we will truly become a family. We can’t be happier.”
The old lady nodded and said to Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen, “The old man and I also have the same idea. We understand and like Momo. Zhiqian and Momo together make us happier than anyone else.”
“Our att.i.tude is like this,” the old lady said to the Tan family, “I also know that you can’t accept it in such a short time. Now that we’ve had enough food, let Zhiqian go back with you. If you have anything to say, feel free to tell him. If you want to beat him or scold him, you don’t have to worry about it since we’re not here.”
The Tan family: “…”
According to the old lady, with Wei Zhiqian’s thick skin, the Tan family would eventually agree to it.
Even if they didn’t agree, weren’t there still the two old ones, Wei Mingwen and Xiao Menghan?
