Reborn Aristocrat: Oppressing - Chapter 248
Chapter 248: Little B*tch, Nicely Beaten (9)
“Then, should we appoint her as a small supervisor or…”
“An employee,” Lu Manman said.
“Your second uncle will overturn the heavens.”
“No matter how hard he tries, he can’t do it,” Lu Manman said angrily. “Lu Xuanran is only this capable.”
Lu Zishan went quiet.
“Dad, don’t worry about it. Leave it to me. I’ll deal with whatever happens.”
Lu Zishan shook his head and smiled. “I wonder when you’ve become so capable.”
“Just enjoy yourself.” Lu Manman smiled sweetly.
It was a loving family.
Sitting beside her, Mo Yuanxiu could sense the warmth of this family.
It was just that the atmosphere in the Mo family’s home was a little less warm.
His parents were too concerned about Mo Li’s every move and had become cautious.
“Don’t talk about work anymore. Yuanxiu is still here,” He Xiuwen hurriedly said, afraid of neglecting him.
He smiled. “No, it’s alright. I think it’s good this way. I feel at ease and not too restrained.”
He Xiuwen said kindly, “Although Manman is well known by the outside world to be a graceful lady, she still has a temper sometimes. I’ll have to trouble you to take care of her in the future.”
“Even a temperamental Manman is adorable,” he said.
Lu Manman felt goosebumps all over.
How could he say something so disgusting?
“Mom, I will take good care of Manman,” he said.
Lu Manman felt that it was a little awkward for him to address her mom as such.
Back then, when Wen Yun called her that…
Wen Yun. She suddenly felt like she had not thought of this man in a while.
“It’s good that the two of you are on good terms. Manman got married just like that. I was shocked,” He Xiuwen said.
Mo Yuanxiu smiled beautifully. “That’s love at first sight.”
He Xiuwen played along. “So your dad and I won’t interfere in the affairs of the younger generation. As long as you two are happy.”
“Thank you, Dad and Mom, for your support.”
The family chatted, and the atmosphere was good.
Lu Manman looked at Mo Yuanxiu’s expression. Seeing how serious he was with them, she had an indescribable feeling in her heart.
She felt that this was how people were. It was obvious that they had nothing to do with each other, but now that she had changed her identity, she felt differently!
The car arrived at the Lu family’s villa at a moderate speed.
It was already five in the afternoon, and the servants were preparing a sumptuous dinner.
Her plan was to go to the Lu family’s main household in the morning and come back in the afternoon for dinner at the Lu family’s villa.
“Yuanxiu, feel free to take a seat. Just treat it as your home.”
“Mom, you don’t have to mind me. I know.” Mo Yuanxiu nodded and sat on the couch obediently.
Lu Manman chose a spot that was a little far away.
He Xiuwen went to the kitchen to take a look and seemed to give instructions before coming out.
The two elders were elated.
No matter how strange her marriage was, her parents wanted her to be happy.
“Oh, right,” Lu Manman suddenly said to the servant. “Pour me two cups of tea.”
“Yes,” the servant answered respectfully.
Lu Manman said to Mo Yuanxiu, “Serve my parents tea.”
He nodded.
The two of them knelt before Lu Zishan and He Xiuwen.
The two elders were getting emotional.
Lu Manman respectfully handed the tea to her parents. “Dad, Mom, have some tea.”
“Good girl.” Lu Zishan and He Xiuwen prepared red packets and handed them to her.
Mo Yuanxiu toasted them. “Dad, Mom, please have some tea. Thank you for agreeing to let Manman marry me.”
The two elders smiled in satisfaction. “As long as you’re happy.”
With that, they gave him another red packet.
Lu Manman could not help but roll her eyes. How could Mo Yuanxiu be so good at pretending!
Thinking about it this way, Mo Li that little b*tch was the same. She must have inherited it from her family.
The two of them got up after a toast.
The family sat on the couch.
Lu Manman did not toast Lu Qinzheng because she felt that she really should not be trampled on by others. She had to toast her parents because she was really grateful to them for taking care of her all these years. Even though this marriage was superficial, she wanted to give them the most peace of mind when she could do it.
Hence, she had never told them about her true motive for marrying Mo Yuanxiu.
To them, at least, they seemed to be in a good relationship.
Dinner was ready at six-thirty in the evening.
There was a huge table full of delicious food.
The family ate very warmly. This was an atmosphere that could not be felt in the Lu family’s main household.
He Xiuwen picked up some food for Mo Yuanxiu and Lu Manman as she asked, “Manman, when are you and Yuanxiu going to have a child?”
Lu Manman almost spat out the soup in her mouth.
She hurriedly swallowed it and coughed a few times. “Mom, why did you suddenly think of that?”
“The two of you are married. Isn’t it only right and proper for you to have children?” He Xiuwen was shocked to see how shocked her daughter was.
“We’re still young. There’s no rush.”
“Why not? The sooner you give birth, the sooner you can recover your figure. See, I gave birth to you when I was twenty-three. Look at how good I look now. I don’t even have fat on my body.”
“That’s because you trained well and pampered yourself well. What has that got to do with giving birth?” Lu Manman pouted.
“Don’t be willful.” He Xiuwen chided. “You’re already twenty-three, and if you’re pregnant this year, you can give birth next year. After you give birth, go ahead with your stuff and bring Mom back to take care of you. Mom has nothing to do at home anyway.”
“Why are you in such a rush? Why not have fun for two more years?” Lu Manman rebutted.
“You’re really something. It’s easier to have a second child after giving birth. If you give birth to a first child when you’re thirty, then do you want a second child when you’re thirty-five?! The earlier you give birth, the less tired you’ll be,” He Xiuwen said.
Lu Manman pouted. She did not even say she wanted to have a first child.
Where had the second child come from?
Why did all the elders want to have a grandson immediately!
Her mom looked so young, but if she went out with a grandson, people would think that he was the youngest son!
“Mom, don’t talk anymore. I’ll think about it myself.” Lu Manman did not want to continue the topic.
“Remember to consider it carefully.” He Xiuwen reminded her.
Lu Manman looked down as she ate. She kept feeling like someone was looking at her.
She turned to look at Mo Yuanxiu, who was looking at her meaningfully.
She was unhappy, and her eyes narrowed.
What are you looking at?!
What did he expect?!
