Chapter 1416: Calmly and Tightly Controlled

In fact, compared to Wu Tao's embarrassment, Xiao Zixia was more nervous and embarrassed than him.

As a result, the sound of Fei Sao's call made both of them feel relaxed. Except for the tone of voice that sounded a bit like "Fat Sao", everything else was fine.

After letting the two of them into the house, Xiao Zixia turned around and got into the kitchen, as if she had entered the role of the Gu family's daughter-in-law.

Instead, Gu Xueli and Gu Fei were left sitting in the living room looking at each other with nothing to say.

As a result, as soon as Wu Tao came in, the two men immediately wanted to chat with Wu Tao. As soon as they opened their mouths, they crashed.

Gu Fei stepped back decisively, nodded and bowed, and humbly said, "You come first, you come first."

The way these two men got along was so funny that Wu Tao had to endure it very hard to not laugh.

Turning around, he filled Gu Xueli's tea cup and then confirmed, "Grandpa, were you asking me about my report just now?"

Gu Xueli nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, you promised me this during the meeting, and it cannot be denied."

"Where?" Wu Tao said with a smile, "I can do it at any time, but the school has been closed. Is it appropriate for me to make a report at this time?"

Gu Xueli took a sip of tea and said calmly: "I knew you were here waiting for me. Don't worry. According to reliable information, we are not far away from closing the school."

"Okay, grandpa, you inform me after the cancellation, and I will make time to come over immediately." Wu Tao immediately made a plan.

While talking, An Rong came out after washing her hands, looked at the father and mother sitting in the living room, and then at the harmonious mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were busy in the kitchen, and decisively turned to the kitchen.

After Gu Xueli asked, he picked up the newspaper casually. He didn't know if he was really reading it or pretending to be reading it, but he was attracted to it anyway.

Gu Fei seemed to have lost interest in the conversation and said casually, "I just wanted to ask you when the anti-fei campaign will end."

Wu Tao patted Gu Fei's knee and teased: "Why, Brother Fei can't wait to get married and start a family to continue the family line? Grandpa, it seems that you will have a grandson soon."

In response, Gu Xueli could only say a neither serious nor serious 'hum'.

This topic was obviously not a pleasant conversation.

Before Wu Tao could change the subject, Gu Fei turned decisively and sighed: "By the time the Anti-African War is over, this year's good development may have passed. Do you think our country's economy can still take off?"

When this topic was brought up, Wu Tao finally remembered and asked, "By the way, Brother Fei and Sister-in-law came home today. Why didn't you call Uncle An and Aunt Jin? Isn't that all right?"

Gu Xueli put down the newspaper and said, "Dingguo said they were busy with work and couldn't get away. Naturally, Xiaojin was not happy to come. They said they would just let you and Rongrong represent them."

Wu Tao snorted, and then said: "If Uncle An is here today, he would be the most suitable to talk about this topic. If I were to talk about it now, Brother Fei, just put your heart back in your stomach and choose a comfortable sleeping position. From now on, Get ready to lie down and count the money!”

So optimistic?

Gu Fei was a little in disbelief, but with all the knowledge in his mind, when talking about serious things, he really couldn't come up with a reason to refute for a while.

However, Gu Xueli took the opportunity to tease him: "He is such a big man. Didn't he get this small achievement today just by lying down and counting money?"

Sure enough, the mentality of parents all over the world is roughly the same when it comes to hating the fact that iron cannot become steel.

Even if you are an academician, you cannot escape this law.

Wu Tao smiled and consoled him: "Grandpa, Brother Fei is already good enough. You need to encourage him more."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Gu Fei blurted out: "I am grateful to God that he can look at me."

"You're such a loser..." When Gu Xueli heard this, his eyes widened and he almost knocked off the glasses on his nose.

Fortunately, Wu Tao decisively suppressed the matter and said repeatedly: "Take your time, grandpa!"

"Say less, Brother Fei!"

Just at this moment, along with the aroma, a cheerful voice came from the kitchen, "The food is ready, ready to eat!"

The one who spoke was naturally An Rong, who immediately gave instructions: "Uncle, stop sitting around and take my Tao to wash his hands."

Wu Tao had no choice but to follow Gu Fei and stand up. When passing by the kitchen, he said politely: "Grandma, Fei Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard, not hard at all." Yin Wenfang smiled broadly, "Thanks to Xia for helping me a lot today, you all need to eat more in a while."

In the bathroom, Wu Taozai carefully rubbed the palms and backs of his hands with hand sanitizer. Next to him, Gu Fei was standing by the toilet, minding his own business.

"Brother Fei, please eat more honestly later and stop quarreling with the old man."

Gu Fei said nonchalantly: "It's because he doesn't like me, so how can I dare to quarrel with him? Sometimes I really feel that outsiders are more polite to me than he is."

Wu Tao raised his foot as if to kick you and said: "Outsiders are being polite to you, but family members will be sincere to you. You want me, a junior, to teach you such a simple truth?"

After they washed their hands, they returned to the restaurant. The whole family was seated, waiting for them.

During this home-cooked meal, Wu Tao noticed that Xiao Zixia was very smart, with the cleverness and well-behavedness of her new daughter-in-law, which made Wu Tao look at her with admiration.

Unexpectedly, she, who has always been a strong woman, also has such a delicate side.

For example, from beginning to end, Xiao Zixia kept silent about work and social matters.

Even if Gu Xueli asked occasionally or chatted with Wu Tao, she would only talk briefly or simply keep silent.

The Gu family's family banquet gradually dispersed until nearly nine o'clock.

After seeing off all the juniors, Yin Wenfang returned to the sofa, looked at the empty room, and couldn't help but sigh: "Look at how outstanding our daughter-in-law is. She can take care of Xiaofei so well without making a move."

"...If it weren't for Xiao Tao's relationship, I'm really worried that Xiao Fei will have no status in the family in the future and won't be able to stand firm."

These words made Gu Xueli become upset. He threw away the evening newspaper in his hand and complained: "Look, you just want to worry about it. How Xiao Fei will live in the future is his life. No one can help him." He cannot replace him."

"... Anyway, if he is like this now, I think it will be really embarrassing."

Yin Wenfang suddenly became unhappy, "You old guy, can't you just hope for Xiao Fei..."

At the same time, on the way back in the car, An Rong also asked a similar question: "Do you think my uncle and Mr. Xiao will live happily in the future?"

Wu Tao grabbed An Rong's delicate hand and thought in his mind: "Fate is a wonderful thing. The more things we outsiders don't like, the more likely we will live happily in the future than anyone else."

An Rong twitched her hands and said, "I'm serious."

"Okay, to be honest." Wu Tao had to correct his attitude, "As long as they become richer and richer in the future, life will definitely be good."

An Rong decisively grasped the key, "In other words, if we are in trouble together, we have to fly away separately?"

Wu Tao scolded him righteously: "What are you talking about sharing weal and woe? The future will only get better and better, so what can happen? Besides, even if something happens, I still have to be there!"

An Rong: "This is what you said, I remember it, don't go back on it..."
