Chapter 304 - 304 The Gloating Matriarch Mo
304 The Gloating Matriarch Mo
After the new year, Mo Ronghua, his wife, and Mo Junyan were exhausted after receiving guests one after another.
Originally, with their identities, the person they needed to receive must have an extraordinary identity.
They were the kings of the business world. No one in the business world had the right to make their family receive them politely.
When the business partners visited their house, they only put down their gifts and sat for a while before leaving.
Some of these people did not need their hosts to receive them at all. They only needed the butler to receive them.
However, the Mo Family’s current status and connections were not limited to the business world.
Mo Ronghua sat on the sofa and said, “We’ve finally sent them away. Those wily old foxes are always playing Tai Chi!”
Madam Mo walked behind him and massaged her shoulders skillfully. She smiled and said, “They’re just here to visit the Mo Family!”
However, there was a deeper meaning behind this!
Madam Mo thought of something and put down her hands. She took out a stack of photos from the drawer and said, “Hubby, look.”
As soon as Mo Ronghua received the photos, his deep and sharp eyes lit up. He took the photo excitedly and said, “Is Mingming about to give birth?”
Madam Mo nodded and said, “Yes, Mingming’s due date is on the first of March, the second of February in the lunar calendar!”
He had learned about this due date from the Shi family.
Usually, when a pregnant woman was pregnant, she would ask about when the due date was.
It was no secret that Madam Mo could easily know the due date.
Mo Ronghua frowned slightly and said seriously, “Then there are only a few days left.”
Although most of the matters in the company were handed over to his son, Mo Junyan, he was still the chairman of the Mo Corporation in name.
Many of the company’s strategic plans and decisions were waiting for his approval.
In a short period of time, they might not be able to leave!
Madam Mo rolled her eyes and said, “There are only a few days left. Therefore, I plan to go to Stoneback Village in the next few days to witness the birth of our granddaughter!”
Upon hearing Madam Mo’s words, Mo Ronghua was excited. He said, “Madam, I’ll go too! You can’t leave your husband behind and run off alone!”
Madam Mo said hesitantly, “But Hubby, don’t you have a lot of work to do? Why don’t you finish your work first?”
Mo Ronghua turned around and grabbed Madam Mo’s hand. He shook his head and said, “We can leave most of the work to Junyan. He can take charge now. I don’t have to worry!”
No matter how much work they did, it was more important for them to see the birth of their granddaughter.
However, the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry; man proposes god disposes!
Just as the couple packed their luggage and were about to sneak away, something happened to the Mo Family.
Matriarch Mo accidentally fell and broke her pelvis.
The couple could only stay behind to take care of Matriarch Mo.
This matter of meeting Gu Qingming and her granddaughter was delayed again and again!
In the hospital, Matriarch Mo saw that there was something wrong with her daughter-in-law’s expression and asked suspiciously, “Jiaojiao, is there something on your mind?”
She did not think that her daughter-in-law was unwilling to stay and take care of her. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had always had a good relationship.
Madam Mo smiled and said, “It’s fine, Mom.”
Matriarch Mo asked suspiciously, “But I saw the words ‘I have something on my mind’ written on your face. Are you lying to Mom?”
Madam Mo blushed slightly and said hesitantly, “Mom, I have something to tell you. But after I tell you this, you have to calm down!”
Matriarch Mo was in her sixties and had taken good care of herself. She looked like she was only in her fifties.
When she heard her daughter-in-law’s words, her eyes lit up. “Could it be that Yan’er has taken a fancy to some girl? That’s a good thing. Why did you hide it from me?”
Madam Mo didn’t know what to say. She deliberated for a moment and said, “Yes, Yan’er has taken a fancy to a girl, but that girl doesn’t seem to have taken a fancy to Yan’er!”
“Huh?” Matriarch Mo was stunned for a moment before a look of intense interest appeared on her face. “What kind of girl doesn’t like Yan’er? Tell me and make me happy!”
It had always been her grandson who looked down on other girls. Now, there was actually a girl who looked down on her grandson.
Matriarch Mo felt that the tables had turned.
Before Madam Mo could answer, Matriarch Mo’s well-maintained face revealed a gloating expression. She said excitedly, “With Yan’er’s ice-cold face, as long as a girl stands in front of him, she will freeze to death. I reckon that that girl doesn’t like Yan’er because the cold air Yan’er emits all day will freeze people. For the sake of her life, she rejected him directly!”
Madam Mo was speechless.
Granny’s gloating expression was too obvious.
Those who knew would think that the other party was her enemy.
Madam Mo rubbed her forehead and called out, “Mom, it’s not what you think!”
“Oh, it’s not what I think. Then what is it?” Matriarch Mo asked curiously. “Speaking of which, which family in the capital is that girl from? How can she resist the temptation and reject our Yan’er?”
The Mo Family was the wealthiest family of the country and was ranked in the top ten of the world’s richest people. Their immense wealth tempted countless people.
Which girl didn’t want to be the Madam of a rich man?
Marrying into the Mo family could be said to be akin to sitting on a mountain of gold. There was an endless amount of gold and money to spend.
How tempting was that?
Moreover, her eldest grandson was handsome and dashing. His golden ratio made people scream in shock. Other than his ice-cold countenance, there was nothing about him that made people picky. How could there be a girl who looked down on him?
Matriarch Mo was really curious about that girl.
However, she still asked, “Jiaojiao, is that girl trying to keep us in suspense by playing hard to get?”
Madam Mo smiled and said, “Mom, you’re really thinking too much. Ronghua and I have seen that girl before. She’s really a good girl. She won’t play such tricks! Besides, do you think that with your grandson’s sharp eyes, he won’t be able to tell if that girl is playing tricks? Do you know your grandson’s nickname in the business world: Cold-faced King of Hell! Who dares to play tricks in front of King of Hell?
Matriarch Mo nodded and said, “You’re right. Jiaojiao, what kind of girl is she? Why did our cold-faced ice block take a fancy to her?”
After a moment of silence, Madam Mo said helplessly, “Mom, is it really appropriate for you to say that about your grandson? Look at the gloating expression on your face. If I didn’t know better, I would think that your grandson is your enemy.”
“Haha, Mom is just happy.” Matriarch Mo smiled and said, “That ice-faced grandson of mine has finally experienced a hard knock.”
Madam Mo was speechless.
She was still gloating!
