Chapter 557: I Know This Grandma
With that, Gu Qingyao got up and went to the kitchen.
She had made plenty of ginseng chicken soup. They had many dishes today, and there were only a few of them, so they had not drunk much of the soup. Not only was there plenty left in the soup bowls on the table, but there was still half a pot of soup left!
Gu Qingyao found a clean jar and filled it with ginseng chicken soup for Grandma Mo to bring back.
Grandfather and Grandma Mo shared the same tastes. Or to be precise, the two of them had spent their lives together, and Grandfather Mo had always doted on Grandma Mo. If Grandma Mo liked to eat something, he usually liked it too.
Gu Qingyao gave the jar to Grandma Mo and said with a smile, “Grandma, bring that back for Grandfather to try. If he likes it, he can come here for a meal!”
Grandma Mo took the jar. Although she smiled, she was inwardly suspicious. Why was this girl so…
Something was wrong! She was too compliant.
Whatever the case, Grandma Mo was very happy that day. She did not sense any ill intent from this young girl, so she did not quibble but brought the jar home.
Gu Qingyao was amused as she watched Grandma Mo's departing figure.
Jiang Yiru saw her smile and asked, “Do you know her? It seems that she also knows you?”
Gu Qingyao smilingly poured her teacher a cup of tea. “This old lady knows who I am. Teacher, I think her family probably had a part to play in your opportunity to move to the capital. I know her, so you don't need to worry.”
Jiang Yiru laughed. “As long as you know what's going on. We've only just arrived in the capital. I was worried that you had gotten into trouble!”
Gu Qingyao laughed. “Why would I? This Grandma Mo certainly won't give us trouble.”
Meanwhile, Grandma Mo was carrying the chicken soup that her granddaughter-in-law had made. She was in a wonderful mood. She emerged from an alley, walked for a while, and then turned to another alley where a car was waiting for her.
Grandma Mo carried the jar onto the car and said naturally, “Let's go home!”
The car drove off and stopped at the Mo house.
Grandma Mo entered and saw there was no one in the living room. Aunt was cooking in the kitchen. It was already lunchtime, but the Old Master was still busy in the study. Mo Huai, Jiang Hongying and the current eldest grandson, Mo Yunhao, had not yet returned, so the aunt had been on standby in the kitchen.
Grandma Mo entered and carried the chicken soup to the kitchen. “Little Zhang! Put this in a bowl. Old Master hasn't eaten yet? Be sure to serve this later.”
Little Zhang was Aunt Zhang. She was about 40 years old and was in charge of cooking for the Mo family.
She immediately agreed.
“Old Master is still in the study! I think he's still busy.”
Grandma Mo nodded. She went upstairs to look for the Old Master. Aunt Zhang poured out the chicken soup into a soup bowl, ready to place it on the table.
It was a very fragrant soup, and there were herbs added to it. It looked like it was part of a medicinal diet specially meant to build up one's health.
Since Grandma Mo had personally brought it back, Aunt Zhang treated it with care.
She had just poured the chicken soup into the soup bowl when a young, imperious voice was heard from outside.
“I'm starving. Aunt Zhang, hurry up and serve the food. I'm starving!”
Grandma Mo went upstairs and headed straight for the study to look for Grandfather Mo.
Old Master Mo was busy in his study!
The Mo family was such an important family that there were many things to attend to. His eldest son was hopeless, and he did not have much expectation of his younger son. That b.a.s.t.a.r.d did not bother about these things at all. He only focused on building a quiet life for his wife and children.
That in his old age, Old Master Mo still had to work hard and worry about family matters!
