Chapter 188: Chapter 188 Little Beggar
“Yanyan, you see…” Madam Xie looked a bit awkwardly towards her eldest daughter, as her own grandchildren did not recognize their grandmother.
It was understandable, as she didn’t even know when her daughter had children, let alone met them. This was their first meeting after all, and strangeness was inevitable.
“Tuantuan and Yuanyuan, go with your grandmother and have some food. She is your mother’s mother, don’t be afraid,” Yanyan said gently, looking down at the two little ones.
The two little ones looked at Madam Xie but still hesitated, unwilling to leave with her.
Seeing this, Xuexue said, “Never mind, mother, I think brother-in-law is also hungry. Let’s wait until the food is ready and serve it so they can eat together.”

“Ah! Okay!” Madam Xie liked the idea and hurried off to the kitchen. She was worried that it might be too late and the little grandchildren would get too hungry. Poor things, what kind of life was Yanyan living normally? It looked even worse than her time at the Mo family.
“Li Feng, come here,” Madam Xie had just left when Mo Yaner glared fiercely at her husband, as if she wanted to skin him alive.
“Wife.”
Li Feng walked over.
Suddenly, Mo Yaner reached out and twisted his ear hard a few times.
“Ah…! Wife, it hurts.”
“Do you know what it feels like to hurt? Did you forget what I told you before I left? Why did you bring Tuantuan and Yuanyuan here? Are you trying to ruin everything?” Mo Yaner kept her voice very low, fearing Xuexue would hear.
“No, no, they just missed their mother.”
While they were whispering and Li Feng occasionally cried out in pain, Xuexue, who was amusing the two little ones, was astounded. Was this the elder sister who often preached filial piety to her? She could hardly believe it. Wasn’t she too fierce?
“Which one of you is Tuantuan and which one is Yuanyuan?” Xuexue’s voice was very soft, trying not to frighten the two shy little ones.
The little girl pointed timidly at the slightly larger boy next to her and whispered, “He is Tuantuan.”
“Oh! Then you must be Yuanyuan, right?”
The little girl twisted her fingers nervously and nodded: “Mhm.”
“Well, let me introduce myself too. My name is Xuexue, and I’m your aunt, your mother’s sister, understand?” Xuexue stared nervously at the two little ones, really afraid they wouldn’t understand. Wouldn’t that be like playing the lute to a cow?
The two little ones stared at Xuexue for a while, without saying a word.
Xuexue widened her eyes, a puzzled expression on her face: “Don’t you understand?”
Tuantuan: “Auntie.”
Yuanyuan: “Auntie.”
Just as Xuexue was feeling utterly frustrated, the two little ones suddenly called out to her simultaneously, bringing her instant joy. It turned out they did understand her after all!
“Ah! Auntie is asking you,” Xuexue turned to look in the direction of Mo Yaner and her husband then turned back, whispering, “Is your mother always so fierce?”
The two little ones started shaking their heads, thought for a moment, then nodded again.
“What exactly is going on?” Xuexue looked confused, feeling that it was really hard to communicate with the two youngsters.
“Before, mother wasn’t so fierce, but ever since dad lost Silver at the gambling house and owed a lot of money to people, mother has been like this,” Tuantuan said.
“What? Your dad gambles too?” Xuexue was somewhat shocked, no wonder they had become so reduced in such a few years.
“Exactly, everything at home was taken away by the debt collectors. We don’t even have decent clothes, and the village kids laugh at us, calling us little beggars.” Perhaps because they were getting more familiar, Tuantuan was no longer shy and spilled everything like spilling beans.
