Mu Mu greeted Chen Feng and Chen Qingqing, then sat down at a nearby table. Chen Qingqing brought a bowl of noodles over and placed it in front of Mu Mu. “Here, Mu Mu, try my cooking!”
Mu Mu smiled. “Older Sister Chen, you’ve been doing well lately! Judging by your business, you must have made quite a bit?”
Chen Qingqing glared at him. “Brat. Address me as ‘Aunt’, do you hear me?”
Mu Mu’s head ached. He disliked being so junior. They were all his aunts and uncles although they were about the same age.
“Please, how much older are you? Why should I call you ‘Aunt’?”
Chen Qingqing sat down next to him with a smile. “Too bad. Your aunt is my older sister. So shouldn’t you address me as ‘Aunt’ as well?”
“I think I had better address you as ‘Granny’!”
Chen Qingqing ground her teeth. “Brat. Do you want a beating?”
Mu Mu raised his brows and said smugly. “You want to beat me? It isn’t that easy! My uncle is so good at fighting, and I’ve also learnt some moves over the years. Granny Chen, are you sure you can beat me?”
Chen Qingqing: “…”
“You are not to call me ‘Granny’!”
How dreadful.
Mu Mu laughed. “Then I’ll call you Older Sister Chen!”
“But Older Sister Gu is your aunt.”
“You’re not related to the Gu family or the Mo family!”
“It’s still awkward!”
“What’s so awkward?”
Chen Qingqing: “…”
“It’s just awkward!”
Mu Mu ignored her. Anyway, he would never address her as ‘Aunt’.
Zhong Bingyuan saw her older sister and this youth chatting so happily and discussing something about addressing her as ‘Aunt’. She walked over out of curiosity.
“Sister!”
Chen Qingqing saw her and said, “Yuan Yuan, e here. This is Mo Chengxi. His nickname is Mu Mu, and he’s Older Brother Mo’s nephew.”
Chen Qingqing smilingly looked at Mu Mu and Yuan Yuan. “Yuan Yuan, this fellow addresses Older Sister Gu as ‘Aunt’, so he should also address us as ‘Aunt’.”
Mu Mu, “…”
This was Zhong Bingyuan’s first time being someone’s elder. She was delighted. “Really?”
Zhong Bingyuan was incredibly excited to meet someone older than her who had to address her as ‘Aunt’.
Mu Mu’s expression darkened. “Dream on. You are not related to either the Mo family or the Gu family. We’re about the same age. I won’t call you ‘Aunt’!”
“She looks younger than me?”
Zhong Bingyuan smiled. “I’m thirteen!”
Mu Mu raised his brows. “See, she’s younger than me. Call me ‘Older Brother’!”
Back home, Chen Qingqing had enjoyed arguing with Mu Mu about this. When Jiang Xun and the others played together, she even made them address her as ‘Aunt’!
Jiang Xun was much older than Chen Qingqing.
After a long argument, they still had not reached a conclusion. Chen Qingqing had things to do, so after a while, she went back to work.
Mu Mu sat at the table and raised his brows smugly.
Zhong Bingyuan laughed and said, “I can see this question of seniority is very irritating for you! You just got away with not addressing my older sister as ‘Aunt’. Why should that make you so happy?”
Mu Mu said helplessly, “Do you think I enjoy this? I don’t have a choice. I’m the most junior in the family. My aunt is very young, and she married my youngest uncle, which has made me the most junior.
“Many of the children in the Gu family are about the same age as me, but they are Aunt’s younger cousins, so they are more senior than me.”
Zhong Bingyuan immediately burst out laughing. “This… is quite mon! Many large families are like that.”
Mu Mu glanced at her and saw the book in her hand. “Are you reading? Are you getting ready to go to school?”
