Chapter 461 - 462: This Daughter-in-law is Too Considerate
"Hmm, thanks, Mom." Gu Qibao showed a lovely smile.
"Have another." Fang Hao passed another chicken leg to Gu Qibao.
"I’d better not." Gu Qibao waved her hand hurriedly, laughing awkwardly, "I’ll just eat it at the table later. If I eat both chicken legs now, everyone will think it’s weird."
Fang Hao couldn’t help laughing; in fact, she wanted to say that it was already noticeable enough if she just ate one chicken leg.
So, what difference would eating two make!
Giddy and sweet, Gu Qibao charmed Fang Hao. In a hurry, Fang Hao encouraged her, "Xiaoqi, you should eat more. Look, you’re so slim, eat more, and maybe you’ll grace us with a baby for Mingjue faster; I want to hold a grandbaby soon!"
"Sure!" Gu Qibao nodded firmly, looking very serious, "Don’t worry, Mom, I’ll give my all to deliver him eight or ten of them."
Fang Hao chortled on hearing these words, her mouth stretched wide with happiness.
She knew Gu Qibao was joking to amuse her, as giving birth to that many wasn’t possible. When Qin Qian gave birth to so many, it was because she was allergic to all contraceptives, both medical and mechanical, resulting in...
But in fact, three of Gu Qibao’s older sisters weren’t Qin Qian’s biological daughters; they were the children of Qin Qian’s sick sister. After giving birth, her sister succumbed to her illness and her husband was also plagued with a terrible disease due to grief, leading to his death shortly after.
The Gu Family, being prosperous and wealthy, had no trouble raising them, and they treated the three daughters that Qin Qian’s sister left behind as their own.
It was just that the Gu Family hadn’t made an announcement to the public, they raised them as their own daughters.
Regardless, Fang Hao adored Gu Qibao to madness, this child was sweet-tongued and lovely, and most of all, a foodie!
And that, Fang Hao loved best about her, since she enjoyed cooking so much.
Having a foodie for a daughter-in-law perfectly suited her own culinary inclinations; mother-in-law and daughter-in-law issues needn’t be a bother!
After finishing her chicken leg, Gu Qibao diligently wiped her mouth with a tissue and enthusiastically asked, "Is there anything else I can help with?"
"Nope." Fang Hao shook her head eagerly, with a beaming smile, "Just wait outside for dinner, we have the maids here to help, remember to eat more later."
"Okay." Gu Qibao nodded, licking her fingers, "Don’t worry Mom, I’ll try my best! I’ll head out now."
"Go on, go on." Fang Hao pushed her on, "We’ll be serving dinner shortly."
Gu Qibao nodded and bounced off happily.
Looking at Qibao’s petite figure bouncing off, Fang Hao couldn’t help but tear up with emotions. The girl had absolutely wormed her way into her heart.
Gu Xiaoqi was an absolute match to her third son’s cold demeanor.
Gu Qibao hopped happily out, settled next to Di Jinxuan, who cast her a glance, "Quit lying Gu Xiaoqi, did you sneak off to munch in the kitchen?"
"How’d you know?" Gu Qibao puffed up her cheeks.
"My third brother told me." Di Jinxuan was grinning widely, "So, my third brother is like a worm in your stomach now? Are you two each other’s soul mates?"
Without any strength to retort, Gu Qibao calmly pat her head, "Di Jinxuan, you really need to improve your idiom vocabulary."
Di Jinxuan stuck her tongue out, "I’m just being cute, okay?"
"Are you cute and unloved?" Gu Qibao giggled.
With both girls chattering away, Mingjue remained quiet, merely watching Gu Qibao.
Di Jinxuan shook her head in disbelief, "Tell me, isn’t my third brother silly? He can’t seem to get enough of you even though you’re always around."
