Chapter 1772 - 1774: Looks Like Li Fugui
"Of course Yueyue looks like your aunt and uncle. Besides, Yueyue is only two months old; you can’t really tell much yet. Babies all look the same. I think she looks like Little Liufu, don’t you?"
Xiaoxiao said as she held Little Liufu up next to Yueyue for the kids and adults nearby to compare.
After the kids had a look.
Yang Shushu, being a boy with simple thoughts, didn’t get bothered by it and said, "Haha, third aunt is right, all babies seem to look the same, one nose and two eyes."
But although Yang Liuliu was young, she was quite stubborn. "But I still think Yueyue looks like the teacher."
When Yang Gang’s wife heard her daughter speaking carelessly, she immediately pulled her over. "What nonsense are you talking about? You’re still young, how can you tell anything? You looked like this when you were little!"
Then she shared some stories from when the kids were young, and managed to brush the matter aside.
Although the topic was brushed off, the women in the room were all secretly worried.
They hadn’t thought much of it before, but after what Yang Liuliu said, they looked at the child’s face again. Doesn’t she look a bit like Li Fugui?
But such matters surely can’t be spoken of carelessly, so everyone kept silent.
This situation made Xiaotian a bit anxious. She took the opportunity while everyone was chatting to ask Yang Liuliu who the teacher was, and Yang Liuliu’s words frightened her, "It was Uncle Li who used to live with us and taught us to read. We all called him teacher."
Liuliu was referring to Li Fugui. She knew that Li Fugui had been saved by the Yang Family later.
Could even a child have noticed?
Would the adults notice too?
She was a bit afraid, but this was something that couldn’t be spoken of, as she feared it could cause chaos.
Fortunately, when she saw her family had stopped mentioning it, she felt a little relieved.
Not long after, everyone returned to their rooms to sleep. Yang Ming’s mother arranged for Xiaotian’s family of three to stay in the Main House, while she went to Yang Qiu’s room, and the old man went to Yang Dong’s room. They made do with these arrangements.
After freshening up and lying down, Xiaotian said, "Brother, just now Liuliu said the child resembles Li Fugui. What should we do?"
Hearing this, Guo Feng felt a jolt in his heart, but he didn’t show it on his face. He comforted her, "She doesn’t. She’s so small; she hasn’t even grown yet. I’d say the child looks like me."
"But I’m scared. What if the child grows up and looks like him? I fear what Mom and Dad might..."
Before she could finish, Guo Feng interrupted, "Don’t be afraid, I’m here."
Xiaotian didn’t say anything else; she didn’t know what to say. Just then, the baby cried, so Xiaotian tended to the child with her back to Guo Feng, feeding her.
Guo Feng turned to the side, not watching. This had always been their unspoken understanding. In fact, Xiaotian already agreed to be with him, but he...
He always felt the timing wasn’t quite right, always felt Xiaotian hadn’t fully accepted him yet.
A moment later, Xiaotian coaxed Yueyue back to sleep. Guo Feng said, "Let’s get some rest. We need to visit relatives tomorrow. We’ll see your grandma, uncle’s family, third uncle, fourth uncle, fifth uncle’s house, and both of your aunts are coming back too."
"Okay."
Xiaotian lay there thinking about seeing the relatives the next day, and fell asleep without realizing it.
Listening to Xiaotian’s steady breathing, Guo Feng also closed his eyes and went to sleep.
