Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All Chapter 1495 - 1256:

"No idea."

In other words, he didn’t know what was going on and had no right to comment.

Old Master Gao’s mouth twitched. He snorted, "We’re just gossiping a bit, look how serious you’re being."

"Every family has its share of crap. While we’re here talking about others, chances are they’re at home talking about our family business too." Of course Elder Xi knew about that mess with the Feng family. Not to mention, after Feng Lu lost the baby because of Han Qian and had her uterus removed, she’d been staying at the Feng family’s place for quite a while. With her living there that long, how could there not be people dropping in to visit?

And once someone comes over, with this whole thing of Feng Lu ’dying’ and then coming back to life, even if they don’t know the details, how could they not guess something? Then later, when they’re chatting idly with others, they’d casually bring it up once or twice. It’s practically a sure thing.

Otherwise, how would Old Master Gao have heard from Old Lady Gao that Feng Lu had ’died and come back to life’?

And Elder Xi hadn’t shown the slightest surprise when Old Master Gao mentioned that Feng Lu had survived.

Which goes to show, the whole process of Feng Lu going from "dead" to alive again was probably already known to quite a few people in the compound.

And today, with Feng Lu openly returning to the Feng family’s place in broad daylight, it’s not hard to imagine that the whole compound would know about it soon enough.

Second floor.

"Brother Xi, I’m so jealous of you, you’ve got so many comic books!" The Xi family had a special reading room for the kids, and the books there were basically accumulated by Xi Chenyu’s older brothers over the years, which naturally drew Guoguo’s amazed gaze.

Xi Chenyu said, "If you like them, just take some. I’ll give them to you."

Guoguo shook her head. "No, no. My grandpa has a reading room for me and my brothers at the old house, and the bookshelves there are also filled with lots and lots of books. And my mom has also set up a reading room for me and my brothers in our big house. If you don’t believe me, you can ask my Big Brother and Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother."

"Mm."

Min Rui and Bun Tangyuan both nodded in unison when Xi Chenyu looked over at them.

"You don’t have this many comic books at home. I have tons, it’s nothing to give you some."

Hearing that, Guoguo replied in her milky little voice, "We don’t have this many comic books at home, but we do have the comic books my Big Brother, Second Brother and my sister already read. Added up, it’s not a small number either!"

She paused a second, then tugged on Xi Chenyu’s little hand. "Brother Xi, I can read more comic books here at your house now. If I still want to read them later, I’ll tell you at kindergarten, and you can just bring me a few when you come to school. Oh, and I’ll also bring some nice books for Brother Xi!"

Xi Chenyu smiled. "Okay."

Jhiang Xuanyuan chimed in at that moment, "Little Sister Guoguo, don’t forget to bring nice books for me too."

Guoguo said, "I won’t forget!"

The little ones sat in a row on kids’ chairs, each with a comic book in front of them, and before long they were all completely absorbed.

To make it easier for the children at home to read, the elders of the Xi Family had prepared children’s tables and chairs in the reading room, laid a thick carpet on the floor, and wrapped all the corners of the chairs with cotton pads, so the kids wouldn’t bump into or fall and hurt themselves.

There were children’s bookshelves too. At the age the three little ones like Bun were now, they just needed to stand on tiptoe to reach up to the top shelf and grab whatever book they liked.

Min Rui was also reading at the moment. He was leaning against an adult’s desk, flipping through a book page by page, occasionally lifting his eyes to look at the three little buns. The corner of his lips was slightly raised, his gaze gentle and doting. If someone came up to the second-floor reading room right then and saw this scene, they’d definitely sigh, "What a peaceful, lovely moment."

She didn’t know how much time had passed when Gao Xinyue got bored of reading. She wanted to go to the living room to find Old Master Gao, but she couldn’t bear to part with Xi Chenyu just like that. So she pursed her lips, got up, walked behind Xi Chenyu, and poked his back with her index finger. "Brother Chenyu! Brother Chenyu, let’s go downstairs and play!"

Xi Chenyu frowned. He hated being disturbed while reading the most, and couldn’t help turning his head to look at Gao Xinyue. "Go by yourself."

"..." Gao Xinyue’s mouth drooped, and her eyes instantly filled with tears. "I want to be with Brother Chenyu. Is that not okay?"

There was a loud "bang".

It was the sound of Jhiang Xuanyuan slapping her palm on the table. The little girl stood up, puffing with anger, her eyes wide and round as she glared at Gao Xinyue. "You’re so annoying, you know that? We’re all reading here, and you’re the only one causing trouble. If you want to play, go downstairs and play by yourself. Don’t disturb us while we’re reading our comic books!"

"Jhiang Xuanyuan, I wasn’t talking to you!"
