Chapter 228: 092: Changing Views on Ni Yan, Elder Mrs. Mo’s Birthday Banquet 7
Madame Mo also laughed, “Xiaodie, your Sister Xianxian is right, you are at the age to play. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. It’s fine to enjoy your writing, but remember not to exhaust yourself.”
Mo Hudie came over, hugged Madame Mo’s neck coquettishly, “Mmm, Grandma, I know.”
Li Xianxian looked at Mo Hudie and narrowed her eyes imperceptibly.
Since Mo Hudie didn’t die, it seemed that some plans had to be set in motion ahead of time.
The Mo Family was of high status, and Mo Baichuan was an important figure. If she wanted to marry into the Mo Family smoothly, she still lacked a dazzling identity.
With such an identity, she could stand more firmly in the Mo Family in the future.
Li Xianxian smiled and came over, “Xiaodie, would you like to go downstairs and play?”
“Sure.” Mo Hudie nodded.
The three went downstairs together.
Li Xianxian had brought a lot of things that little girls like to play with. So, Mo Hudie sat on the floor and started playing, even forgetting about lunch.
At the dining table, Li Xianxian proactively served Madame Mo, “Grandma, if I remember correctly, your 75th birthday is coming up in a few days, isn’t it?” Madame Mo laughed, “It’s commendable that you remember this old woman’s birthday, Xianxian.”
Li Xianxian said, “Grandma, your birthday is always on my mind.”
“I know you’re a filial child.”
Li Xianxian continued, “Grandma, with all the good things happening in the family recently, we should definitely celebrate your birthday in a big way.”
Mo Fuhai, the eldest at the table, put down his chopsticks and agreed, “Xianxian is right, we haven’t had any celebrations at home lately. This would be a perfect occasion to invite the older siblings back, dispel some of the recent bad luck.”
Li Xianxian continued, “It would be perfectly timed to invite over the ‘Little Lucky Star’ that Grandma often mentions. He has been such a help to the family, we should properly thank him.”
Li Xianxian had wanted to meet this ‘Little Lucky Star’ for a long time now!
Unfortunately, she hadn’t found the right opportunity.
With this birthday banquet, not only could she display her abilities in front of the Mo Family, but she could also meet the legendary Little Lucky Star.
She had to see if this Little Lucky Star was as formidable as rumored!
Of course, more importantly, she wanted to assess whether the Little Lucky Star would pose a threat to her.
Anyone daring to steal her credit would have to pay back the principle along with the interest!
Madame Mo laughed and nodded, “Excellent, Xianxian. You’ve truly hit the nail on the head! Fuhai, we should sincerely thank our little Lucky Star.”
Mo Fuhai said, “Let’s leave this matter to Sixth. He can notify Yangyang.” Upon hearing about Mo Qishen, a look of disdain flashed in Li Xianxian’s eyes. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. If he associates with the trashy sixth son of the Mo Family, then this ‘Little Lucky Star’ is definitely not to be feared!
He probably fluked into saving Mo Hudie and into curing Lin Pingping’s acne. “Mother, Father, are you speaking ill of me again?” A straight figure walked in from the outside at just the right moment.
“Uncle Mo Sixth.” Li Xianxian politely greeted.
Although she thoroughly despised this waste, she had to maintain her facade.
She couldn’t let the Mo Family elders harbor any dissatisfaction towards her.
Mo Qishen nodded at Li Xianxian, then sat next to Madame Mo.
Mo Fuhai explained to Mo Qishen about Madame Mo’s birthday feast while laughing.
Mo Qishen said, “Dad, there’s no need for you to worry about such matters when I’m here. I’ve already prepared the venue, you just need to enjoy yourself everyday.”
Mo Qishen was always good at cheering people up, and he immediately brought a lot of joy to Madame Mo and Mo Fuhai.
The two elders laughed and scolded him playfully as a “naughty boy.”
“Qishen, don’t be hesitant to spend money on such matters. Take this passbook.” Mo Fuhai ordered the servant to bring a passbook.
Seeing this, Li Xianxian scorn was evident in her eyes.
Waste is waste. Even the money for his mother’s birthday celebration needs to be begged from people. Such a son was really good for nothing.
Unfortunately, Madame Mo and Mo Fuhai cherished Mo Qishen so much.
Old age surely does make one’s vision go hawkish.
Mo Qishen handed the passbook back to Mo Fuhai, “Dad, you don’t need to worry about money. Your son is not waste. I can assure you that I will make mom’s birthday celebration grand!”
Considering his son’s pride, Mo Fuhai could only put away the passbook, “You promise me that you’ll speak up if anything goes wrong.”
“Hmm.” Mo Qishen nodded.
Madame Mo added, “Oh, Qishen, there’s another thing that needs to be done.”
Mo Qishen said, “No problem, grandma. Whatever you command, even if it means climbing mountains of swords or diving into seas of flames, I will get it done.”
Madame Mo laughed heartily at Mo Qishen’s joke, “This child, always jesting.” Once settled, she continued, “It’s about Yangyang. No matter what, you have to get him to attend this birthday banquet.”
Mo Qishen immediately stood up and saluted in the style of a TV drama, “Yes, madam.”
“What a rascal!”
“By the way, why didn’t Xiaodie come to eat?” Mo Qishen asked.
Madame Mo replied, “When Xianxian came earlier, she brought a bunch of new and interesting things for Xiaodie. She’s in the living room setting up her new toys.”
Every child has a playful nature.
Mo Qishen nodded and continued eating.
After the meal, Mo Qishen went to find Ni Yang. Besides inviting him to the birthday banquet, he had to deliver some goods to him as well, a shipment of ten thousand disposable paper cups that Ni Yang had ordered through him.
Wu Darning helped Mo Qishen tie the ten thousand disposable cups to the back seat of his bicycle, “Brother Six, should I deliver these to Sister-in-Law by car?”
No need,” Mo Qishen checked whether the cups were secured tightly, “I’ll deliver them by bike.”
Wu Darning was puzzled.
Mo Qishen clearly had a luxury car at his disposal, but insisted on using this little broken bicycle. This didn’t fit his image at all!
