Rebirth of an Idle Noble Women (200-end)

217-220

Chapter 217: Teach The Newbie

Gu Xiqiao and Jiang Shuxuan walked together into the community area. Xixi had already gone ahead of them, it had been a long time since it saw Haha, and Xixi couldn’t wait.

As they turned a corner, Gu Xiqiao suddenly stopped in her steps, turning slightly to look in the direction behind them with a thoughtful look on her face.

“What are you looking at?” Jiang Shuxuan lowered his head as he asked.

“It’s nothing.” Gu Xiqiao flashed a smile at him, before giving him a reluctant look. “I’m just thinking about how big Mama Tang’s ‘welcome’ will be. Sigh, have you told her…”

When she had left, she had only concealed her departure from Jiang Shuxuan, but she had informed Tang Yanling. Only, the older woman had told her to be back in three days, maximum. Now that she counted, it had already exceeded one, two, three, four… five days!

It’s over, she could see the countless bowls of soup that would be placed in front of her in the future!

Anyway, she was the one who was meekly not contacting Tang Yanling in the first place.

“Yeah, I contacted her while we were on the plane,” Jiang Shuxuan replied. Hearing her words, he was happy. In the beginning, he had thought that Tang Yanling would be an eyesore, but after getting along for a while, he had changed his impression.

When it was just Gu Xiqiao and him, if she didn’t want to drink soup or anything, he would cave immediately every time she gave him a look.

But it was different with Tang Yanling, Gu Xiqiao couldn’t bring out her puppy look with the older woman, no matter how much she wanted to. He wondered if she would gain slightly healthier weight while Tang Yanling was staying with them for the month.

Sure enough, as soon as they got home, Tang Yanling’s eyes were on Gu Xiqiao, looking her up and down before starting on her rant.

Gu XIqiao only hung her head pitifully, as though admitting her mistakes.

Jiang Shuxuan couldn’t bear to see her in this state, but as he thought about it, if she wasn’t taught or scolded like this now, she would probably be worse in the future. Hence, he hardened his heart and ignored the scene in front of him.

Hua Youlin was hugging a notebook to his chest, looking at Gu Xiqiao with sparkling bright eyes. When she was done being scolded, he immediately rushed forward to give her a big hug.

But just as his fingers touched her, he was dragged away.

“I will teach you any of the questions that you don’t know.” He raised his eyes, and met a pair of cold ones.

Hua Youlin: “…” Thanks, but he knew everything!

However, Jiang Shuxuan didn’t have any plans to let the kid go. Thoughts of when they were sending this kid back to the Hua family was running in his mind as he led him away.

Hua Youlin wanted to cry, he felt that the look Jiang Shuxuan was shooting him bore no good intentions tonight. So he hugged his books to his chest as he followed Gu Xiqiao around the house like a duckling following its mom the entire night.

After dinner, Jiang Shuxuan went upstairs. Picking up his phone, he dialed a number. The other party seemed to have been waiting for his call, as it was picked up as soon as it went through.

“Mom,” Jiang Shuxuan said, walking towards the bookshelf and making a turn, pulling out an ancient text and sitting down in the chair to flip through it. “You were looking for me today?”
