Chapter 460: Afraid He Cannot Keep Up With His Wife
Besides the Gu house, where the living conditions had been much better, they had not had any nice things before.
Mo Beihan was a good earner, especially after he was reborn. He navigated life with ease, now that he had the experience and judgment of his previous life. He had always been willing to spend on his family, but now, he was even more inclined to spend on them. He had done many things for his family over the past year.
Quilts were essential in winter. The house had many new quilts, which he had acquired when he was home last year. Jiang Yingqiu could not bear to spend that much money and could not get hold of that much new cotton wool either.
Mo Beihan looked around and did not notice anything that was lacking. He nodded and relaxed a little.
The two younger ones had been independent since they were young. For years, Jiang Xun had taken care of his younger brothers, and they had lived on their own. Of course, they were self-sufficient.
That night, the youngest ones slept in the lower bunks, while Jiang Xun and his younger brother, Jiang Ping, slept in the upper bunks. The two of them were completely at peace as they lay curled up in their warm quilts, sheltered in a house that was not drafty, listening to the breathing of their younger brothers.
They were very emotional. They finally had a home!
They were so emotional they could not sleep.
The brothers exchanged glances in the dark. The light reflected from the snow shone into the room and lit it faintly. Their eyes had already adjusted to the darkness, so they could see the outlines of each other’s faces.
The brothers saw each other’s bright eyes, and each knew what the other was thinking.
It was wonderful to have a home!
In the future, they would work hard and take care of the younger boys. As long as they had a home, they did not mind hard work and exhaustion.
Mo Beihan got up early the next day. Meanwhile, Jiang Xun and Jiang Ping had risen as well. Mo Beihan did not wait for Jiang Yingqiu. As long as he was home, he would actively take on the chores and allow his elderly mother to rest a little.
He went to the kitchen to make breakfast. Jiang Xun and Jiang Ping went to help too.
After breakfast, he told the children to stay home to read and write while he went to the Gu house.
He had not seen Gu Qingyao for such a long time; of course, he missed her. Furthermore, now that four children had suddenly joined his family, others would certainly expect him to spend some time coaxing Gu Qingyao. So it was natural for him to seek her out.
Meanwhile, over at the Gu house, the children had finished breakfast. Without anything else to do, they were all reading and writing.
Gu Fangting cocked her head and looked at Gu Qingyao. “Elder Sister, Mu Mu is really the Mo family’s grandson! Since Elder Brother Jiang Xun is his older cousin, when you marry Brother Beihan, they will have to address you as Young Aunt. Since I’m your younger cousin, won’t that make me Elder Brother Jiang Xun’s aunt?”
She felt it was rather ridiculous. She had suddenly become his senior!
Gu Fangting smiled broadly. She decided that the next time she saw Jiang Xun, she would ask him to address her as ‘Aunt’ to see how it sounded.
Gu Qingyao was looking at her medical books. When she heard that, she raised her head and glanced at her with a smile. “That’s right! You’ll be his senior. In the future, you must take good care of your juniors!”
Little Nine immediately chipped in. “And me, and me. I will ask Elder Brother Jiang Xun to address me as Uncle. Hahaha!”
The corner of Gu Qingyao’s mouth twitched. Jiang Xun would have a hard time of it.
In the past, he had assumed the role of an older brother when he interacted with these children. But in a blink of an eye, they had become his seniors…
When Mo Beihan arrived, Gu Qingyao was studying diligently.
He sat next to her. “You’re studying so diligently?”
Gu Qingyao glanced at him and smiled. “Of course, I have always been very focused on my studies.”
In her previous life, this girl had been very learned. Now that she had been reborn, and with her interspace, Mo Beihan did not dare to rest on his laurels, lest he fail to keep up with his wife.
