The rest of the people simply watched the scene unfold before them in silence.
While Nian Xiaomu was in a state of confusion, Yu Yuehan was too stunned for words.
The flower girl had instantly turned into his love rival. Such a dramatic turn of events was rather hard for him to accept.
Seeing how Nian Xiaomu still ignored her, Xiao Liuliu nudged her cheeks against her legs and explained in her babyish voice, “If Mommi marries Xiao Liuliu, Xiao Liuliu can eat with you and I’ll be good when it’s bedtime. I won’t press my body on Mommi’s…”
Xiao Liuliu had yet to finish her words when Nian Xiaomu’s nerves tensed up and she abruptly covered her hand over her little mouth.
She then raised her head to look and as expected, the group of people standing before her had changed their gaze towards her.
Some of them even covered their mouths to suppress their laughter.
“My little sweetheart, you can’t say these things in front of others!” Matriarch Yu suppressed her urge to laugh and went forward with the support of her walking stick.
She watched Nian Xiaomu receive the flowers and then proceeded to carry the adorable Xiao Liuliu back into her arms.
She joked in amusement, “Then again, children say whatever they like, there’s no harm in that. It’s good that your Daddy is working hard. Great-grandma has been wanting a grandchild for a long time. Xiao Liuliu, do you want a younger brother or sister?”
Xiao Liuliu immediately burst out, “Yes!”
The young and old were extremely natural in their conversation.
It was as if they were performing an opera.
The surrounding people started to cheer as well.
Nian Xiaomu was still carrying the bouquet of roses which Xiao Liuliu had exerted much effort to bring to her, and upon hearing Matriarch Yu’s teasing, her face was completely flushed.
She turned to look at Yu Yuehan, not knowing what other tricks he had up his sleeves.
“Grandma said she wants a granddaughter-in-law, she’s asking you if you’re willing.” Yu Yuehan walked towards her and placed his hand on her waist, remarking with a grin.
Nian Xiaomu was still in a daze while Matriarch Yu carried Xiao Liuliu and was walking towards them.
After passing Xiao Liuliu to Yu Yuehan, she took Nian Xiaomu’s hand and brought her to introduce the other elders of the Yu Family.
“This is Yuehan’s Eldest Uncle, and there’s Eldest Aunt…”
“This is Second Uncle, Second Aunt, and there’s Third Uncle and Third Aunt…”
“You’ve already seen them before. Now, let Grandma introduce you to those whom you’ve not seen yet…”
Matriarch Yu held onto Nian Xiaomu’s hand tightly and took her to each and every person she had yet to meet, starting from the very first row of elders.
At the same time, she introduced her to other younger members of the Yu Family.
Even though Matriarch Yu was getting on years, her authority had not diminished.
Wherever she went, the member of the Yu Family would have their backs straightened like a soldier standing there to wait for her inspection.
Moreover, Matriarch Yu introduced Nian Xiaomu with such formality that no one dared to take it lightly.
After going around, Matriarch Yu stopped and turned to look at Nian Xiaomu beside her, asking with affection, “Xiao Mumu, have you remembered them all?”
“Since there are so many people, it’s fine if you can’t remember all of them yet. When you marry into the family, you’ll have plenty of chances to meet them again. Take your time to remember, eventually you will!”
“Grandma, I’ve remembered all of them,” Nian Xiaomu replied instinctively.
Although there were at least a hundred people here, as long as she saw a face, she would never forget it. She could at least match each face to the person’s corresponding status.
Before she could react in time, it only came to her that Matriarch Yu was saying that it could wait until she married into the Yu Family.
She had actually responded without any thought at all.
Her face was suddenly burning up…
Upon hearing her words, Matriarch Yu broke into merry laughter.
“My Xiao Mumu is really intelligent. You can actually remember all of them in such a short time. When you marry Yuehan, we’ll have to trouble you to take the responsibility of managing such a huge family!”
Using her walking stick to support herself, Matriarch Yu’s eyes swept past the group of people and she asked, “What are you waiting for? Aren’t you going to greet her?”
