Chapter 344 Upgrade in Generation
Reading Settings
Under the astonished gazes of the three adults, the little man's short legs transformed into two wheels, and he began to dart around the room.
It darted around extremely fast, and wherever it passed, trails of white smoke would rise up.
Finally, it stopped in front of the cabinet of jewelry that Yan Liti had mentioned. Like an octopus, it clawed at the cabinet door with its four limbs and crawled all the way from the ground to the top of the cabinet.
After rummaging through the jewelry in the cabinet, she finally held up a pearl that was even larger than her body, glancing sideways at the two people behind Qiao Changdong while furtively beckoning to him.
Qiao Changdong walked over and approached it.
Then he saw the little man put the jewel into his palm. After he finished, he jumped into his palm and started prying his fingers apart one by one to cover the big pearl in his palm.
After his five fingers curled up and enveloped the large pearl in his palm, the little man stood contentedly on his clenched fist, patted his little paws, and disappeared.
"..." Qiao Changdong.
Qiao Changdong held the large pearl in his palm and coughed somewhat embarrassedly.
Under Yan Liti's amused and Shen Qingyan's jealous gaze, he put the pearl back in its original place, then picked up the little girl on the ground who looked a little regretful because he had put the pearl back in its original place and hugged her in his arms.
He kissed her little face and said, "The 100,000 yuan that my sweet baby earned last time is enough for Daddy, so we don't need this for now."
That's what he said, but Qiao Changdong's lips curled up in a wild smile.
I just feel that his daughter is the most considerate little cotton-padded jacket in the world. When she sees something good, the first thing she thinks of is taking care of her father!
That's incredibly thoughtful!
However, it must be said that what Yan Liti prepared for Qiao Qiao also had a great impact on Qiao Changdong.
He immediately realized the significance of Yan Liti's words when he thought hiring three nannies was a waste in the tenement building in Hongfeng Town, and when Yan Liti said that it was the result of her restraint.
Eighteen servants.
A housekeeper.
In addition, there were the three retired military bodyguards that Shen Qingyan had invited.
Goodness.
His young daughter suddenly had more than twenty people serving her!
Even princesses in ancient times didn't have this many maids and servants, right?
There was also a room full of clothes, shoes, and jewelry.
It turns out Yan Liti was right; his daughter, whom he took in, really was living a hard life!
You should know that the hotel he took over in Baoyi City only had about twenty employees in total!
Qiao Changdong remained silent, only marveling inwardly.
At the same time, he secretly made up his mind that he needed to think of more ways to make money.
Even if they can't compare to the Yan or Shen families, they can't be too bad either, yet they make their young daughter worry about supporting her useless father every day.
With Yan Liti's introduction, Qiao Qiao and Qiao Changdong toured the castle where they would be staying that night.
That evening, while the family of four was watching TV together, Yan Liti received a phone call.
It was a call from the Yan family.
"Auntie, I heard the child has been brought back?" It was Yan Xiaotian, the eldest son of Yan Liti's eldest brother and the current head of the Yan family, calling.
Although Yan Xiaotian calls Yan Liti his little aunt, he is actually the same age as Yan Liti, only a few months younger than her.
"Yes. We've brought her back." Yan Liti nodded, glancing at the little girl who was being held in Shen Qingyan's arms, picking up the pine nuts that Shen Qingyan had just peeled. Her tone was incredibly gentle.
Yan Xiaotian, who was on the other end of the line, found it all very unbelievable.
He grew up with Yan Liti since he was a child, so how could he not know what kind of fiery temper this little aunt had?
If she hadn't had a fiery temper and been so decisive, she wouldn't have married Shen Tuo, who was twice her age, so quickly.
Some time ago, she said she wanted to divorce Shen Tuo, and the divorce agreement was handled by the lawyers on the Yan family's side.
However, the divorce proceedings have not yet been finalized.
Because his former uncle-in-law was taken away by someone just a few days after returning to Beijing.
Yan Xiaotian strongly suspected that Shen Tuo did it on purpose. Why not take him away sooner or later? He must have been trying to delay the inevitable.
"Then let's get together sometime. Grandpa said he wants to see the children. Should I bring the children over, Auntie, or should I take Grandpa to your place?"
Yan Liti then asked Qiao Qiao, "Do you want to see the baby?"
She knew that with Qiao Qiao's hearing, she must have overheard her conversation with Yan Xiaotian.
After asking, he was afraid that the girl might not actually want to see him, but he didn't want to put himself in a difficult position, so he reluctantly agreed. He then added, "If the baby hasn't settled in yet and is shy and doesn't want to see you, then we won't see you."
Yan Xiaotian, who was on the other side, was slightly surprised when he heard Yan Liti's question.
He thought to himself, "Has his aunt spoiled the child to this extent?"
Even a single meeting requires the child's consent.
Then he heard a soft, sweet voice say, "See you."
“Alright, then let’s meet.” Yan Liti said this to Qiao Qiao.
The following was said to Yan Xiaotian: "Then I'll take your little niece over tomorrow. By the way, please inform all the younger generation in Kyoto that they must all come back. Consider it a family banquet, so they can recognize their youngest sister and cousin."
"You can handle the gift and such as the meeting present."
The age gap between Yan Liti and Yan Weiting, the previous head of the Yan family, is too large, a full twenty-six years.
Therefore, Qiao Qiao's seniority in the Yan family has also been raised considerably.
For example, Yan Liti's second brother, Yan Weiping, and his eldest great-great-grandson, Yan Yan, held their eighteenth birthday banquet at the beginning of last year, and have already come of age.
However, now that Yan Yan is an adult, she has to call her granddaughter "cousin aunt".
After Yan Liti hung up the phone, Qiao Qiao climbed out of Shen Qingyan's arms, crawled to Yan Liti's side, tilted her little head up, and asked in surprise, "Grandma, am I my little cousin?"
“Yes, baby, you have five little nephews now. The oldest one is named Yan Yan, who just had his coming-of-age ceremony last year. The youngest one is named Yan Ke, who is eight years old this year.”
"Should I prepare a gift for them too?" Qiao Qiao asked, remembering what Yan Liti had just said on the phone.
Yan Liti chuckled and replied, "Of course not. They're the ones who want to see you, so naturally they're the ones showing you respect. Hmm... Tomorrow, have your dad get you a suitcase, and we'll go get big red envelopes and gifts! Who knows, we might even make a small fortune."
When Qiao Qiao heard that she could make a small fortune, her eyes lit up.
