Chapter 141 The Fourth Master of the Xiao Family
Xiao Mubai looked at Su Mo coldly, this is the most remote place in Xiao Zhai, usually few people come, and they dare not come, how could this person appear here?

Who in the Xiao family doesn't know Fourth Master Xiao?
But this person's expression told him that she really didn't know him, and judging by her appearance, it was obvious that she would not be a servant of the Xiao family.

Almost immediately, Xiao Mubai guessed her identity.

"Miss Su?" Xiao Mubai walked over, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Su Mo looked at his legs in surprise. When he walked over just now, his right leg seemed to be a little limp.

But even with such a small defect, it is difficult to hide his elegant and refined temperament.

Xiao Mubai said: "You came back with Ah Ye, right? Where is Ah Ye?"

Su Mo guessed that this person should also be from the Xiao family, and when he asked about Xiao Nanye, he said, "He was talking to grandpa in the study."

Xiao Mubai smiled and said, "I have something to do with Ah Ye, how about we go together?"

Su Mo had a good impression of this man, so he nodded and said, "Okay! I'm just worried that I can't find my way back!"

Sometimes things like road idiots are really hopeless!
When Xiao Nanye went downstairs, she didn't see Su Mo, so she asked the servants, and said that she seemed to be heading towards the bamboo forest, this careless woman.

Walking halfway, I met two people who were walking together.

Seeing Xiao Nanye, Su Mo burst into a smile, ran over and shook his arm, "Xiao Nanye, you and grandpa are done chatting!"

"En." Xiao Nanye rubbed her hair, and replied lightly, when she looked up at the person opposite, there was a moment of discomfort on her face.

"Fourth uncle."

"Fourth Uncle?" Hearing Xiao Nanye calling that person Fourth Uncle, Su Mo was extremely surprised. This person didn't look old at all, and she thought he was a relative of the Xiao family.

As if he had guessed Su Mo's reaction long ago, Xiao Mubai looked at Xiao Nanye with a half-smile, "Aye, we haven't seen each other for three years!"

Xiao Nanye nodded, "I just heard from grandpa that the fourth uncle is back." If he had known that Xiao Mubai was back, he would definitely not have brought Su Mo to Xiao's house.

Su Mo didn't see anything wrong with the nephew and uncle, so he tugged on Xiao Nanye's sleeve and said, "Xiao Nanye, I found that you look a bit like your fourth uncle!"

I don't know which bottom line this sentence touched, I saw Xiao Mubai's face changed, but soon, he returned to that indifferent look.

Looking at Xiao Nanye with a half-smile, wondering how he would react.

Xiao Nanye was also taken aback for a moment, looked down at Su Mo's expression begging for praise, slightly raised the corners of his lips, patted her on the head and said, "Well, you found out."

Su Mo had an expression of "I knew it", and his smiling eyes couldn't see.

Xiao Mubai stopped smiling, and looked at Su Mo with cold eyes, this girl seemed different from those in the past.

Sensing his gaze, Xiao Nanye raised her head, gave him a warning look, then lowered her head and said softly to Su Mo: "Aunt Liu said she baked biscuits, do you want some?"

Su Mo nodded, and thought that if he learned it by himself, he could make it himself when he wanted to eat, so he asked Xiao Nanye, "Can I learn how to make biscuits from Aunt Liu?"

"Okay, but don't make yourself too tired."

Xiao Nanye pulled Su Mo and turned to leave. Behind him, Xiao Mubai coldly looked at the backs of the two of them leaving side by side, his eyes filled with darkness.

Because of the food, Su Mo forgot about Xiao's handsome fourth uncle for the time being, and only remembered when he returned to the main courtyard, "Where is fourth uncle? He was still behind just now!"

Xiao Nanye didn't want her to mention Xiao Mubai, and handed him over to Aunt Liu, "Don't you want to learn how to make biscuits? Go!"

So, Su Mo completely forgot about the fourth master of the Xiao family.

Because it was New Year's Eve, apart from Xiao Junwan, who was celebrating the new year at her in-law's house, and Second Master Xiao, who was on his way home, everyone in the Xiao family was gathered.

Su Mo had a great time in the kitchen and helped Aunt Liu bake the cake, and then brought the cake to Xiao Nanye as if offering a treasure, "Xiao Nanye, take a look at the cake I baked."

At this time, Xiao Er's family also came, and there were a few juniors who came to pay New Year's greetings in advance. Ten of them were chatting in the living room, and saw a girl running in at the door carrying a cake.

When entering the door, he ran too fast and almost fell.

When Xiao Zhendong saw him, his heart would jump out of fright, but luckily he was not in danger.

Su Mo himself was also taken aback. Seeing the room full of people, except for Wen Zijin, whom he had seen before, he didn't know anyone else, so he unknowingly took half a step back.

Can she pretend that she hasn't been here, and then turn around and leave here?

Xiao Nanye was also very frightened by her, got up and walked towards her, took the cake in her hand with one hand, and held hers with the other, seeing that she was not moving, she asked her, "What's wrong?"

Su Mo glanced at him, lowered his head again, and whispered, "Xiao Nanye, there are many people in your family."

Xiao Nanye squeezed her palm reassuringly, "They all come in advance to pay grandpa New Year's greetings, and they will leave after taking the red envelope."

"Really?" Su Mo didn't quite believe it, and these people were so weird, just keep chatting, why are they staring at her, thinking they were watching orangutans in the zoo?
Why is it that the more I look at it recently, the more I feel that this girl is naturally dumb?

Xiao Nanye sighed, pulled her over, and introduced to the elders who watched him grow up, and the peers who grew up with him, "This is Su Mo, my wife."

Being pushed in front of people like this, Su Mo was not mentally prepared at all, and greeted everyone with a smirk, "Hello, I baked a cake, do you want to eat it?"

In a word, thunder fell.

Seeing the unbelievable expressions, the corners of Xiao Nanye's eyes twitched, and he pulled the person back to sit beside him.

Unexpectedly, someone actually cooperated and reached out to grab the cake on the table, but the other hand took the first step.

Young Master Xiao held the love cake made by his wife, and looked at the man coldly, "This is mine, if you want to eat it, go to the kitchen and get it yourself."

So, everyone fell down.

Is this still the Young Master Xiao that everyone knows?

Su Mo was blushed by Xiao Nanye's brazenness, and quietly tugged on his sleeve, "Xiao Nanye, you can't be so rude, they are guests."

guest?

Shit guest!
It's just that I heard that he brought his wife back today, and they all came to watch the fun!
Young Master Xiao turned a deaf ear and ate his cake expressionlessly.

Su Mo sat for a while, feeling that everyone was always looking at her, and felt very awkward. Just as she was looking for a reason to go out, she saw an acquaintance walking in at the door.

Jiang Shengze came in with a plate, and yelled sweetly, "Grandpa Xiao, I'm here to give you New Year's greetings."

He brought a plate of fruit, followed by Aunt Liu, and said to him with a smile, "Master Jiang, you are a guest, how can I let you work? Give me the plate."

Jiang Shengze rolled his eyes and handed her the plate, but he himself took a strawberry from the plate.

This young man was not shy, walked over while eating, knelt down on the carpet in front of Xiao Zhendong with a 'plop', and brazenly stretched out his hands to beg for a red envelope.

Xiao Zhendong hit him with a cane, "I haven't said that you helped Ah Ye hide it from my old man for so long, you brat still dare to ask me for a red envelope?"

Jiang Xiaobai's rogue mode was activated, and he put his arms around Xiao Zhendong's thigh and yelled, "One yard for one yard doesn't count, Grandpa Xiao, what about red envelopes?"

"You brat." Xiao Zhendong was so entangled by him that he had no choice but to ask Uncle Chen to give him the red envelope he had prepared long ago.

Jiang Shengze ran away after getting the red envelope, aggressively pushed away other people, squeezed to sit beside Su Mo, and stretched out his hand to Xiao Nanye, "Brother, red envelope!"

Su Mo had already realized how shameless this person was, so he slapped his hand away, and answered him for Xiao Nanye, "No red envelopes!"

"No way!" Jiang Shengze wailed, looking at Xiao Nanye pitifully, "Boss...brother..."

Xiao Nanye, who was chatting with others, turned her head to look at him, and said brazenly, "All my money is with her."

The implication is that you can ask for red envelopes, but go with your sister-in-law.

Jiang Shengze reacted for half a beat, and when he understood, he wailed again, "Boss, aren't you!"

Money is the dignity of a man!
How can we hand over the financial power?

Doting on your wife is not like this, boss, what about your morals!

When other people heard this, they respected Su Mo. It was not easy for Xiao Nanye to do this!

After a while, Han Ziyi and Qiao Mingyuan also came and kowtowed to Xiao Zhendong to celebrate the New Year.

Xiao Zhendong liked these two children very much and asked Uncle Chen to give them red envelopes.

With the three of them here, Su Mo didn't feel so awkward anymore.

As it was getting dark, meals were served one after another, and the juniors who came to pay New Year's greetings also left one after another. Only Jiang Shengze and the three stayed to eat together.

The kitchen has been bustling and bustling all day long, and now the dishes are on the table, all of which are delicious in color, fragrance, and even a lot of chicken, duck, and fish.

A very sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner.

After Xiao Junwan had a New Year's Eve dinner at her husband's house, she also came, bringing her children with her.

For entertainment after dinner, Xue Mei suggested playing mahjong, so she called Su Mo, but there was still one person missing.

Xue Mei was planning to call a junior to make up the number, when she saw Xiao Si, who usually doesn't like to join in the fun, came over and sat on the chair, "Second sister-in-law, third sister, don't you mind adding me?"

After being surprised, Xue Mei quickly laughed and said, "Fourth brother is of course welcome to join, but I just want to wrong you to accompany our women."

Xiao Mubai smiled and said: "I heard that playing cards can best reveal a person's character, Miss Su, don't you think so?"

"Ah? This..."

Suddenly Su Mo was caught off guard by the question, and then replied very embarrassedly: "Actually, I don't know about this."

It seems that this person named Su Mo is a little different from the information!

The corner of Xiao Mubai's mouth twitched, and just as he was about to speak, Xiao Junwan next to him knocked on the mahjong table, "Just play cards, there are so many nonsense."
