As her son, he was clear of the mental stress that Jiang Yingqiu had over the years. This was the reason why he could never forgive Mo Huai.
Gu Qingyao knew about that as well.
She smiled gently and looked at her softly, “Brother Beihan, we have been together for so many years, and we are a family now. I’m just used to calling her Aunt all these years. Furthermore, I was shy to address her as Mother before we got married officially. But since you mentioned it, I will call her Mother in the future.”
Mo Beihan smiled and pinched her nose, “I just want her to be happy. If you’re shy about it, just call her Mother when there’s no one around. You can still call her Aunt when there are others. You can change the way you address her after we get married.”
“Mhm!”
Gu Qingyao was able to satisfy such a small request.
When they arrived at Jiang Yingqiu’s place, she was doing laundry. Jiang Xun and Jiang Ping were not around, so she was delighted when she saw Mo Beihan and Gu Qingyao walking in. She stood up immediately.
“Yao Yao, why are you just coming over now? Come in, it’s too cold outside!”
Mo Beihan frowned when he saw his mother was doing laundry. “Mother, why are you doing laundry in such cold weather? What if you catch a cold?”
Jiang Yingqiu did not seem to be bothered by that; she smiled. “It’s okay. I’ve been in good health all these years. I’m not weak anymore. I only left with two more pieces of clothes. I used hot water to wash. It’s going to be done soon.”
She could not just give up doing laundry when the weather was cold, right!
“What about the washing machine?”
This was the new house for Jiang Yingqiu, and it came with different kinds of house appliances.
Jiang Yingqiu said, “It’s broken. I don’t even know how I broke it. I stopped using that for a long time since I’m not used to using it.”
Mo Beihan was not convinced by her words. “You should go in with Yao Yao and talk to her. I’ll finish the laundry.”
“Eh, eh, eh…” Jiang Yingqiu stopped him. “I’m only left with two pieces of clothes. You should go and accompany Yao Yao. I’ll finish the laundry.”
Gu Qingyao pulled Jiang Yingqiu and said, “Mother, it’s not a lot. Brother Beihan will only take a while to finish. We brought presents for you. Come in and take a look.”
Jiang Yingqiu did not care about presents as every time, Mo Beihan would bring something for her whenever he came over. But she was totally stunned when Gu Qingyao addressed her as “Mother”.
She did not try to stop Mo Beihan but instead just stood there and stared at Gu Qingyao. She could feel her heart being warmed.
“Eh… Okay! Okay!”
Mo Beihan smiled as he watched two of his beloved women enter the room. He squatted down and helped his mother finish washing the last two pieces of clothes.
Lin Dongxu followed as well. He walked over when he saw his boss was doing laundry, “Boss… you can go and accompany Sister-in-law and Madam Mo. I’ll wash for you.”
Mo Beihan glanced at him and said, “Stand aside.”
Lin Dongxu, “…”
He looked pitiful as he stood in a corner.
The two of them spent more than two hours here. Meanwhile, Jiang Yingqiu was in a very good mood today.
Before they left, Jiang Yingqiu pulled Mo Beihan to the side and whispered to him.
Mo Beihan was confused. “Mother, what do you want to say?”
Jiang Yingqiu looked at him mysteriously, “Tell me, are you together with Yao Yao now?”
Mo Beihan was bewildered, “What do you mean by together? We’ve been together all these years, right?”
“That’s not what I meant.” Jiang Yingqiu waved her hands.
“I mean, are you… living together now?”
Mo Beihan: “…”
