After resting for a few days, Jiang Yu and Elder Mo prepared to go out and buy some New Year presents.
After Mo Long was done packing, he also went out together.
“Grandpa, what do you want to buy?” Jiang Yu held onto Elder Mo’s arm and asked with a smile.
Elder Mo looked at the tall buildings around him and said, “Just buy some random ones.”
However, Jiang Yu said, “Grandpa, these are New Year’s gifts! How can you just buy some random ones?”
Elder Mo said, “The Mo family has never bought New Year’s gifts before.”
Mo Long kindly reminded Elder Mo and said, “Grandpa, the Mo family also bought these things during New Year’s. But those things are for the servants to buy, so it’s normal that you don’t know.”
“The servants bought them?” Elder Mo paused. “No wonder I never feel like it’s the New Year.”
Jiang Yu sighed, “Of course it’s better to buy these things yourself. How can we let others buy them?”
Mo Long said, “In the future, we’ll buy them ourselves. We’ll have many, many New Years together.”
Jiang Yu smiled and said, “Okay.”
Elder Mo coughed a few times and said, “We’re on the street. You two better be careful.”
Jiang Yu’s face was a little red as she said, “Grandpa, if we haven’t decided on what to buy for the New Year, then let’s buy some winter clothes first. How about buying a few cotton-padded jackets?”
Elder Mo shook his walking stick and said, “Alright, then let’s buy some winter clothes first.”
Jiang Yu brought Elder Mo to the nearest building. The second floor was filled with people selling clothes.
“Grandfather, let’s take a look around here first. If you like anything, let me know and I’ll buy it for you. Or if you don’t like it, we’ll change to a new shop.”
Elder Mo smiled and said, “Alright, let’s take a look first.”
Elder Mo casually walked into a men’s clothing store and said, “Let’s take a look at the clothes here first.”
Jiang Yu said, “Okay.”
But when she looked up, she saw the person she didn’t want to see at the moment — Li Yue.
Li Yue and Li Lu were also choosing clothes here, thinking of giving their father a decent gift.
Li Lu was the first to see Jiang Yu. She quickly tugged at Li Yue’s sleeve and said, “Sister, look. It’s Jiang Yu.”
Li Yue’s hand that was choosing clothes paused and asked, “Where is it?”
Li Lu quietly pointed and said, “She’s at the door.”
Li Yue looked over and indeed saw Jiang Yu.
And beside her was Elder Mo, who had always been on her side, and Mo Long, whom she had always yearned for.
This scene was really eye-piercing.
Li Yue put on a smile and walked over to greet him warmly. “Grandfather Mo, why are you here? What a coincidence. Mo Long, you’re here too.”
After saying this, Li Yue seemed to see Jiang Yu and said, “Jiang Yu, what a coincidence. I can see you here too.”
Jiang Yu also greeted him with a smile. “Hello, what a coincidence.”
Li Yue ignored Jiang Yu and walked towards Elder Mo…
Although she knew that Elder Mo was very satisfied with Jiang Yu, she was still very confident in her impression of Elder Mo… As long as she took the initiative to speak to Elder Mo, he would definitely continue to be kind and amiable to her.
After that, she would say a few words in Elder Mo’s ear and blow a gust of wind. Perhaps Elder Mo would change his mind and feel that she was more suitable to be Mo Long’s wife.
As for Jiang Yu, it was just a small interlude before Mo Long married her.
Hence, Li Yue smiled and said, “Grandfather Mo, what style of clothes do you like? Tell me, I’ll buy it for you.”
Grandfather Mo was feeling a little disgusted with Li Yue, so he distanced himself from her and said in disgust, “If I like it, my granddaughter-in-law will buy it for me.”
When she heard the words “Granddaughter-in-law”, Li Yue’s expression changed imperceptibly, but she quickly returned to normal, she smiled and said, “That’s Jiang Yu’s filial piety towards you, and not mine. If I buy it for you, isn’t that my filial piety?”
Elder Mo immediately refused, “There’s no need. It’s enough to have Jiang Yu’s filial piety alone. Keep your filial piety for your father.”
Li Yue froze, not knowing how to respond.
