Transmigration: From Dragon Princess To Pampered Granddaughter
Chapter 257 - 258: You Look Good When You Smile1

Chapter 257: Chapter 258: You Look Good When You Smile1

His dad hadn’t held back with that slap, splitting his lip and snapping him out of his foolishness.

He must have lost his mind to have uttered such words. After all, Guibao was his own flesh and blood!

Even if there was a lack of closeness between father and daughter, even if she had been adopted by the fourth old man, it wouldn’t change their blood ties.

Ah well, let his parents spoil her as they wished. He wasn’t getting involved anymore. Besides, his daughter will get married off someday.

Once she’s married, her in-laws surely wouldn’t spoil her as much. Naturally, she would act like any other daughter-in-law, respectful to her parents-in-law, considerate of her husband, bearing and raising children.

Li Chunhua was very cautious, even in her eating and serving, fearful of upsetting her father-in-law and getting their family driven out to live separately.

If they were to live separately, given the meagre income she and her husband earned, how could they afford to eat to their fill like now?!

She felt both scared and wronged.

She hadn’t said or done a thing this time!

That brat suddenly wanted to hit her, yet the ones who suffered the anger and injustice were them of the third house.

Her parents-in-law were clearly biased, favoring that spoiled child to the point of absurdity. Who would say that brat isn’t a bizarre, wicked creature!

The children also felt their grandparents’ favoritism, but other than Erni, they were used to it and didn’t feel jealous.

After dinner, Jiang Manyun arrived on her bicycle to pick them up, smiling as she said, "Aunt, the braised pork you made yesterday was incredibly delicious!"

"If you like it, I’ll make it again in a couple of days." Ma Xiulian also smiled and said, "Tomorrow, I’m headed to town too, Manyun can you give me a lift."

She needed to deliver some grain to her eldest daughter. Given that several communes nearby had been affected by pests, she was worried that they would have trouble sourcing food.

Jiang Manyun readily agreed: "Sure!"

While the adults were exchanging pleasantries, Gu Tingyun patted Helian Qiao’s chubby little face, noting she seemed to have gained a bit more weight since their first meeting.

But he dared not say this out loud, for fear of angering the little hamster.

Helian Qiao didn’t shy away, only asking in her babyish voice, "Gu Tingyun, are we going to take pictures today?"

Ever since a photo studio opened in town, Gu Tingyun took her to have her picture taken every half month. She now had many photos.

Gu Tingyun nodded, "Yes, and we need to call grandpa."

He had a standing arrangement with his grandpa, to call on the first and fifteenth of every month. He also used these trips to take a commemorative photo with little hamster.

Once he had saved enough money, he would buy his own camera. Then he could take pictures with the little hamster every day.

Helian Qiao’s eyes lit up instantly, as she cheerfully agreed: "Okay, okay! I miss Grandpa Gu too!"

Grandpa Gu had sent her many cans of food last time: beef, pork, fish... Princess had eaten to her heart’s content.

After hearing this, Jiang Manyun chuckled, "Then take a few more pictures later, to send to the old man."

She never imagined that just from a couple of phone calls, her father would take such a liking to Guibao. He even wanted her to send a couple of pictures.

So, when they passed by the photo studio on their bicycle ride, she let the two kids off and continued on to work at the department store.

She wasn’t worried about the children getting lost. After all, her son was smart and had good direction sense. The people of this town were generally honest, and they knew everyone here.
