“Besides, Momo is very familiar with Han Zhuoli and the others,” said Wei Zhiqian. “Although she doesn’t have much contact with the elders in their family, I take her to get to know them every spring festival. The elders all like her very much.”
Tan Wenci could not help imagining things on hearing Wei Zhiqian’s words.
He also remembered Tan Mo following Wei Zhiqian to visit the eight great families since she was young.
Although the other seven families were not as familiar and laid back as the Wei family, they were not strangers.
At least those old men and old ladies liked Tan Mo a lot.
Could Wei Zhiqian have planned this all along?
He might have deliberately arranged for Tan Mo to familiarize herself with the eight great families and gain everyone’s approval.
Now, it was much easier for him to marry her!
When Tan Wenci saw Wei Zhiqian’s expression, it was as if he was looking at a pervert.
Wei Zhiqian went quiet.
What was Tan Wenci imagining this time?
Actually, Tan Mo was just lucky.
When she was only six years old, she had already gone to meet the elders of each family.
Old folks had no immunity against soft, good-looking children.
For example, something must be wrong with Old Madam Xu.
When those old men and old ladies saw the soft and cute Tan Mo, how could they not like her?
Although they only saw each other once a year during the spring festival, they watched Tan Mo grow up year after year.
They also liked Tan Mo.
What Wei Zhiqian didn’t say was that the old men and old ladies of each family also trusted their grandsons’ tastes.
If Han Zhuoli and the others couldn’t tell who was good and who was bad, how could they still be the family head and inherit the family business?
If they felt Tan Mo was good, then she must be good.
The old men and old ladies did not bother observing Tan Mo further and simply liked her at the get-go.
Wei Zhiqian ignored Tan Wenci’s angry gaze and said, “Moreover, we are only going to see my friends who are close to me and Momo and the elders who are close to my grandparents. They have watched Momo grow up. There’s no problem.”
Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen were still worried, but they believed what Wei Zhiqian said.
After eating the dumplings in the morning, they sat down to digest their food.
It was not until 8:30 am that Wei Zhiqian left with Tan Mo.
“Are we going to the old residence first?” Tan Mo felt they ought to go to the old residence to greet the two elders and Wei Zhiqian’s parents first.
Wei Zhiqian thought the same. He nodded and said, “We’ll go to the old residence first, then we’ll set off with Mom and Dad.”
They would go to the old residence as a family of four to pay their respects for the Chinese New Year.
“It is our custom to stay in the old residence on the eve of New Year, so Wei Keli also stayed in the old residence last night. However, after having breakfast this morning, they have set off to each family. You don’t have to worry about meeting him when you go.” Wei Zhiqian still remembered Tan Mo wanted to give Wei Keli a big surprise.
Even if Wei Zhiqian didn’t say anything, Tan Mo had already forgotten about Wei Keli.
She didn’t expect Wei Zhiqian to be so thoughtful.
Tan Mo didn’t care that Wei Zhiqian was driving. She came over and hugged Wei Zhiqian’s arm. Then, she kissed Wei Zhiqian on the cheek. “Uncle, you’re so nice!”
Wei Zhiqian could not help but laugh. Judging from how stunned she looked, she must have forgotten about Wei Keli entirely.
This reaction really made Wei Zhiqian happy.
Even though he knew that the little girl had never liked Wei Keli, in the end, Wei Keli was still her childhood friend.
The two of them had known each other since they were young, and they had known each other even earlier than him.
According to Wei Zhiqian’s knowledge, when Tan Mo was just born, Wei Keli had stayed by Tan Mo’s crib and played with her.
Since Wei Keli was only five years old at the time, it was hard for him to hold Tan Mo.
If he was older, he might even hug Tan Mo when she was a newborn.
Wei Zhiqian couldn’t help but feel jealous every time he thought of this.
Wei Keli had seen Tan Mo before she was six years old.
As for himself?
He only knew Tan Mo when she was six years old.
Tan Mo was already so cute when she was six years old.
Wouldn’t she be even cuter before she was six?
Wei Zhiqian wanted to see Tan Mo eat, sleep, and spit bubbles in her tiny crib as a tiny baby.
He also wanted to watch her move her arms and kick her legs as she gradually grew.
He wanted to see what she looked like when she smiled and was still teething.
He wanted to see what she looked like when she was still learning to walk.
Sadly, he had never seen any of this, but Wei Keli had seen them all.
Wei Keli had clearly met Tan Mo much earlier and realized how cute Tan Mo was.
However, he was blind and felt that the little girl wasn’t good enough.
Fortunately, he had Wei Keli’s blindness to thank. Wei Keli’s poor judgment gave Wei Zhiqian the chance to bring the little girl under his wing and protect her well.
By protecting her, Wei Zhiqian had made the little girl his own.
Whenever Wei Zhiqian thought about how good she was, he felt Wei Keli was blind for thinking lowly of her.
Wei Zhiqian felt his chest tighten again.
The little girl was so good. What kind of idiot would fail to appreciate her!
Wei Zhiqian thought about it the entire journey until they arrived at the old residence.
As expected, only the two elders and his parents were left in the old residence.
Wei Zhigong and Wei Zhijian’s families had already set off to visit other families.
Wei Zhiqian held Tan Mo’s hand and put her hand into his coat pocket. He entered the old residence with Tan Mo.
Now that Tan Mo was completely one of them, it was as if she had entered her own home.
Butler Zhu did not greet her at the door anymore.
Since she was returning home, there was no need for so much politeness and etiquette.
Wei Zhiqian brought Tan Mo to the main hall. Tan Mo took her hand out of Wei Zhiqian’s pocket and went to pay respects for the Chinese New Year to Wei Zhiqian’s grandparents and parents.
Wei Zhiqian felt empty in his palm. Without Tan Mo’s soft little hand in his palm, he felt empty.
Not only his palm, but even his heart felt empty.
He watched as the little girl behaved adorably to the two elders, and then she obediently chatted with Wei Mingwen and his wife.
Wei Zhiqian could sense his heart welling up with love.
Wei Zhiqian brought Tan Mo with his parents to visit the old residences of the other seven families.
After Wei Keli’s family came out of the old residence, they visited a few families. Since they happened to pass by the Tan family on the way, they went in to visit them.
The Tan family was part of their Chinese New Year plan today, but they had arranged to visit them towards the end.
They had already visited the eight great families.
However, Tanyue Homeware was not to be underestimated now.
Wei Zhijian also started to take it seriously.
In the past, Li Xiangrong brought Wei Keli to the Tan family.
But in the past two years, Wei Zhijian also went.
It was obvious that he was taking the Tan family more seriously.
Especially since last year, Tanyue Homeware seemed to be stepping into the film and television industry again.
First, it invested in “The Legend of Wei and Jin”. This year, it invested in “Broken Continent”..
