After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

Chapter 486: Just a Little Smokescreen

It’s a pity that Li Xiao waited at Xu’s house for a long time, and as the sky was getting darker, Yuxiu still hadn’t come back.

"Your cousin may be busy with something. Come over here and let's eat first. After we're full, we can wait for her slowly..."

Old Mrs. Cui watched the maids coax the two children to sleep. She came out and saw Li Xiao still sitting there in a daze, so she walked over and said.

"Child, if you have any problem, can't you really tell your grandmother?"

Old Mrs. Cui felt helpless and distressed.

This is a good child. Although he is not my biological grandson, at least he calls me grandmother, so he is my own child.

He called the maids to reheat the food and sent someone to see if Cui and Xu Qinghe had returned.

"Grandma, I'm not hungry..."

Li Xiao licked his cracked lips and had no appetite at all.

My cousin hasn't come back yet, so is it possible that the girl did something bad and...

The more he thought about not thinking too much, the more bad thoughts popped up in his mind, causing him to break out in a cold sweat, with beads of sweat even appearing on his forehead.

"What do you mean you're not hungry? Even if you're not hungry, you have to eat first, good boy, be obedient..."

Old Mrs. Cui stuffed the bowl and chopsticks into his hands and personally picked up several dishes for him.

Facing the old lady's loving and caring eyes, Li Xiao's fingers holding the bowl and chopsticks stiffened slightly.

"Don't worry, grandma. I won't be polite to you. Let's eat now."

The food smelled delicious, but to Li Xiao, who was preoccupied with his worries, it tasted like chewing wax.

Old Mrs. Cui was still talking on and on, saying that they were all a family now, and no matter what happened, they could discuss it with their family and there was no need to be polite.

Li Xiao agreed vaguely a few times, but he became more and more anxious.

The old lady and the family were very kind to him, but when he knew that there was something wrong with the girl, he did not stand up and point it out in time.

just in case……

He thought that even if he died, it would be difficult to atone for his sins...

Fortunately, the situation was not the worst. While Li Xiao was daydreaming, Cui and Xu Qinghe returned home together.

After hearing the old lady's mumbling, she said that Li Xiao must have encountered something, and he had been waiting for Yuxiu here for a long time without knowing what was going on...

Cui thought something big had happened, so she quickly followed Xu Qinghe into the house.

Old Mrs. Cui was very tactful. Since Li Xiao had not told her what was going on before, she did not go over to listen.

The children are all capable. For an old woman half buried in the earth, she is a great help as long as she feeds them well and doesn't cause any trouble for them.

Even if you knew other things, it would be of no use to you except to worry about them.

Facing Cui and Xu Qinghe, Li Xiao struggled slightly in his heart, and then he told them everything he knew.

"If you are talking about Qingyun, then this might be a misunderstanding..."

After hearing what Li Xiao said, Cui and Xu Qinghe looked at each other.

"You don't know that your cousin has a very powerful master. Our family is what it is today thanks to her master's help. He arranged for Qingyun to come here. From what you said, that girl should know some tricks..."

"You can think of so many things and run over to report the news without caring about your own safety. It's really rare. You are a good child..."

Xu Qinghe stepped forward and patted Li Xiao's shoulder with great satisfaction.

Although this child's father left when he was young, he was brought up very well by his mother.

Be grateful and repay kindness, and have a delicate and kind heart.

"A trick? Well... that's good..."

Hearing that it was just some kind of trick, Li Xiao thought of the acrobatic troupe on the street. At that time, the nerd passing by said:

It's just a little trick, but it has mesmerized these fools...

"Since this is just a misunderstanding, I'll go back first..."

Recalling the nerd's contemptuous and mocking smile, Li Xiao felt a little embarrassed.

I had been struggling here alone for a long time, and was even frightened to the point of breaking out in cold sweats. The clothes on my back were still sticking to my body.

In the end, it turned out to be a misunderstanding caused by my own lack of knowledge.

Besides feeling embarrassed, he wanted to go out and try his luck even more.

"Don't feel embarrassed. It's great that you have such thoughts. We are all very grateful to you."

When Xu Qinghe saw him off, he said to him with great emotion:

"Look, no matter what the matter is, as long as you talk it out, the problem will be solved. Just like when you were in the Cui family, if your uncle Cui did something wrong, you should also put forward your opinions in time and give him a chance to correct it, right..."

Li Xiao seemed to be in a serious mood recently. Xu Qinghe thought that he felt neglected in the Cui family but was too embarrassed to say it out loud, so he wanted to give him some advice.

At the same time, I was also thinking that I would find my brother-in-law someday and have a good talk with him.

"Uncle Xu, don't worry. Uncle Cui and my two brothers are very kind to me. Mother is also living a comfortable life. We are all fine."

Knowing that Xu Qinghe had misunderstood, Li Xiao quickly waved his hands and explained.

He didn't lie, the Cui family was indeed very nice.

The two children of the Cui family changed their way of addressing Lin to "mother", and except for calling old lady Cui "grandmother", he still maintained the same name for everyone else.

Regarding this point, Mrs. Lin wanted him to change his words, but Uncle Cui said there was no need to force it. They were all family and could call each other whatever they wanted.

Seeing that his expression did not seem fake, Xu Qinghe nodded and did not say anything more.

Yuxiu went to Prince Ning's Mansion today and stayed in the old princess's room for a long time.

She brought the old princess a lot of novel snacks, and the old princess also took out the clothes, shoes and socks that she had sewn for her.

"Grandma's eyesight had been bad for a few years, but I didn't expect that after my little granddaughter came back, her eyesight was actually healed..."

The old princess pulled a piece of clothing for Yuxiu to see. The stitching on it was delicate and even, and it looked very smooth.

"Look at this dress. I sewed it myself, stitch by stitch. My movements are even more flexible than when I was young..."

Faced with her grandmother's sparkling eyes, Yuxiu felt helpless.

This old lady's eyesight was healed. Although I gave her the spiritual spring water to drink, the credit of her mother was also inseparable.

"I have to say, although your father suffered a lot since he was young, it was a great blessing for him to meet your mother. By the way, I, an old woman, also benefited from it..."

Before Yuxiu could question it, the old princess praised Cui again, and Yuxiu felt better.
