Give Me Your Hands and Marry Me - Chapter 301 - Yaya Learns to Apologize
Lan Hua and Shen Qing also came in. Hearing this, Shen Qing laughed.
“That’s very good of you because finally, your grandfather’s full house of books can be useful again!” Then before the Elder Master could react, she patted A Miao’s shoulder. “You should see your grandfather’s study, it will greatly widen your horizon.”
Lan Lixiao laughed out loud. “Right, right. They are all not interested in studying. A Miao, if you like, you can go and have a look anytime!”
“Aunt Zhang, give me a bowl.” Lan Hua suddenly patted the table.
“Are you uncomfortable, brother?” Lan Qin smirked. “You look sick.”
Lan Hua adjusted his glasses. “I’m fine. I didn’t cover myself well with the quilt last night. I may be getting a cold.”
“By the way, Dad, it’s winter, so you should take care of yourself as well.” Lan Hua changed the topic. As if he thought of something, he looked at A Miao and said, “So should A Miao. You come from the south. I am afraid you aren’t used to the winter of Jingcheng City.”

Lan Lixiao frowned and turned to say to Uncle Fu, “Have Auntie Li simmer some vitalizing soup for A Miao starting tomorrow.”
“Grandpa, I am in good health. There is no need to trouble Auntie Li!” A Miao said quickly.
Lan Qin glanced at her with a smile. “Just listen to your grandpa. If you fall ill, he will worry about you!” Then she sighed while saying, “Alas, he used to care about me like this before. Now that he has you, I have been forgotten.”
Lan Lixiao pretended to glare at her angrily. “You are talking too much. Every time I told you to maintain good health, you always forgot!”
“I’m sorry! It’s all my fault.” Lan Qin put a shrimp dumpling into his bowl with a smiling face. “Dad, shall we hold the dinner party this weekend as we planned?”
Lan Lixiao thought for a moment before he said, “No, it’s not the time.”
Shen Qing and Lan Hua looked at each other with a quiet look. The latter showed a smile and was about to speak when he heard the old man’s voice.
“A Miao is not used to our family. Give her some time.” When Lan Lixiao said this, his momentum completely changed. He was an ordinary elder one minute ago, and then he became an eminent superior.
A Miao suddenly became nervous. This was the pride of the head of the family…
“I don’t care what the people outside say, but if I hear anything that you should not say, you know the consequences,” the old man said with no expression, but his words gave everyone a lot of pressure and made them feel awed.
A Miao quietly looked around. The people at the table looked enigmatic, and all the servants standing in the corner had already bent down, including Uncle Fu, who was behind the Elder Master.
“Dad!” Lan Qin broke the silence. “You’ve scared A Miao. Her face is pale.”
Lan Lixiao looked at A Miao, and then he returned to being a harmonious old man. “Don’t be afraid, A Miao. If someone bullies you, just tell me. I promise you that no one will do that to you in the future.”
“Grandpa…” A Miao felt very touched. She intuitively believed that this old man was sincere with her.
Although she was not “her”, she appreciated him very much.
“Don’t worry, grandpa. Although I look fragile, I am a tough person!” A Miao said sincerely. “If someone dares to try me, they will find out who I am.”
Lan Li Xiao laughed. “This is my granddaughter!”
At this moment, although the rest of the people at the table didn’t say anything, the aura was tense. After breakfast, the Lan Hua couple went to the company, and Lan Qin and her husband went out to see an exhibition. The Elder Master needed to take a nap while A Miao had to catch up on her sleep.
“Fu.” In a second-floor room, Lan Lixiao fixed his eyes on a black-and-white photo frame.
Uncle Fu put the teacup down. “Elder Master.”
“Look, A Miao resembles not only my wife Ying’s appearance but also her character!” Lan Lixiao’s hand crossed the photo frame. “Fu, I regret it… If I had agreed to the marriage of my elder son and that woman, he would not have had the car accident, and A Miao would have grown up with me…”
“Master!” Uncle Fu quickly stroked his back. “You drove her away because you had known she was not a good woman. Now we should pay attention to Miss A Miao and make it up to her!”
Thinking of A Miao, Lan Lixiao could not help smiling. “Yes, she is not like her mother. I can tell that she is both a good child in terms of personality and character. What do you think?”
“Of course she is!” Uncle Fu immediately echoed. “And she is very smart.”
“Being smart is good…” Lan Lixiao’s eyes cooled down. “The people who are not smart in this family are not going to end well. I can’t accompany her for a lifetime, so I have to teach her how to protect herself while I can.”
A Miao had a good sleep until an auntie came to call her up.
“Miss Elder, Elder Master had an appointment to play golf with his friend at noon, so he has already gone. What do you want to eat for lunch?”
“I am the only one at home now, right?” A Miao asked while washing her face in the bathroom.
The auntie was helping her tidy the bed outside. “Yeah, your cousins are not coming back at noon.”
“Then anything is fine. What do you have in the kitchen? No need to make something special.”
The auntie answered as she closed the door and went out.
“What a traditional family!” A Miao felt that the Lan family was very like a former bureaucratic house that had a strict hierarchy, and everyone was abiding by their duty.
But she was wondering how the collateral branches lived…
She had read the information. Lan Lixiao’s family had been withered for a long time, and he had no siblings in his generation. But he had five male cousins and three female cousins who were having good lives with the help of the Lan family.
“What is Yaya doing at this moment…” A Miao let her imagination run, and she could not help thinking of her daughter.
Yaya was playing with Chu Bai.
“Here you are! Sister!” Chu Bai handed her a Barbie doll.
Yaya took the doll and began to pull its arms. It was quite peaceful until Chu Bai said, “Sister, look, my mother bought me a robot!”
Chu Bai was showing off with a robot in his hand, which was bigger than his face. He had no idea what trouble he had made.
“Bad!” Yaya slammed the Barbie to the ground, stood up, and ran out.
Chu Bai was stunned as he didn’t know what he had done to make Yaya cry.
“Sister! Sister!” He stood up and followed her.
Just when he almost caught up to her, Yaya turned around and pushed him. Chu Bai lost his balance and fell to the floor. Luckily, the black leopard behind him stopped him from hurting his head.
“Baibai, bad, Yaya does not play with you!” Yaya stamped away tearfully.
Not caring about his pain, Chu Bai climbed up and shouted, “I am not bad! Play with me!”
“You are bad!” Yaya began to cry.
“Not bad!” Chu Bai also cried out.
Their crying attracted the adults, who were talking in the small living room, and Ling Lang first ran out.
“What happened?” She held Yaya in her arms and helped Chu Bai to sit down on the sofa.
Chu Bai was feeling so wronged. He covered Ling Lang’s leg and cried inconsolably. “Sister… sister… said… said Chu Bai was bad… Wooo, I’m not bad!”
“Wooo!” Yaya cried louder than he did. “Baibai, bad!”
Shen Xinglan and Le Yi came over. Shen Xinglan took Yaya and asked, “Tell Dad, why are you saying that your brother is bad?”
“Woo…” Yaya shook her head as she buried herself deep into his arms, sobbing.
Chu Bai still felt very sad. Le Yi touched his head and said, “You are a man. Men must not cry!”
“Woo… no… woo… I’m not crying!” Chu Bai was trying to close his mouth, but he could not stop himself from crying, which looked particularly funny.
Ling Lang was amused by him. She put the little guy on her lap. “Tell mom, what happened just now?”
“I… I don’t know!” How could Chu Bai describe it clearly? He only knew that he was hated by his sister, and he was sad.
Shen Xinglan also touched his head. “It is not Chu Bai’s fault. I will ask Yaya to apologize to you later!”
Although he didn’t know what had happened, Shen Xinglan knew his daughter very well. She had to be the one who bullied others…
In the evening, when Shen Xinglan put Yaya to sleep, he asked, “Is Yaya going to play with Baibai tomorrow?”
“No!” Yaya shook her head with force.
What a vengeful girl!
“Can you tell me why don’t you want to play with Baibai?”
Yaya fell into her thought as if she was trying to recall what had happened, and then she curled her lips. “Baibai is bad, Baibai’s… mom bought him a toy.”
“…” Shen Xinglan finally knew the reason. He turned over and took out a big box from the closet.
“Huh?” Yaya bit her finger and sat up. “A toy!”
Shen Xinglan put the box next to her. “Yaya also has toys that were bought by her mother!”
“Mom bought it?” Yaya was stunned and looked around. “Where is she?”
Shen Xinglan sighed with emotion and put his daughter on his lap. “Mom hasn’t come back yet. She sent it to Yaya!”
“Send?” Yaya stunned and thought for a moment. “Express!”
Since He Shishi and A Miao always bought things on the Internet before, Yaya knew that the courier was the one who sent gifts to her family.
“Yes!” Shen Xinglan patted the box. “Because she can’t come back temporarily, she asked the courier to send the toy to Yaya. And she said, if Yaya is obedient, she will call Yaya next time.”
Hearing this, Yaya immediately held her small face and said, “Yaya will be good! I’m a good girl!”
“Then what should Yaya do tomorrow?”
Yaya’s eyes were filled with confusion. She shouted then, “Play with Baibai.”
“Yaya should apologize to Baibai first.” Shen Xinglan instructed her. “Otherwise, Baibai will be very upset.”
“Apologize?” Yaya did not understand since it was the first time she had heard that word.
Shen Xinglan thought for a moment. “Apologize means to say sorry.”
“So… sorry?” Yaya’s big eyes blinked. “So… sorry…?”
Shen Xinglan kissed her. “If Yaya says sorry to Baibai, Baibai will be very happy! But Yaya should remember that sorry can only be said to those people whom you care about.”
Seeing that his daughter became even more confused, Shen Xinglan learned that it was too soon to teach her this. He put her on the small pillow. “In short, Yaya will remember to say sorry to Baibai tomorrow!”
“OK!” Yaya dragged the toy box over the pillow. “Baibai, sorry!”
Shen Xinglan kissed her. “Good girl!”
The father and the daughter lay down to sleep.
After a while, Yaya asked with expectation, “Dad, if Yaya apologizes, will mom call me?”
In the dark, starlight flashed across Shen Xinglan’s bright eyes, and he nodded slightly. “She will!”
