Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1549: Chapter 1550: The Generous Godgrandfather

When Qi Xiaoqi met this god-grandfather for the first time, not only did he not cry, he was exceptionally friendly, giving Old Master Cheng a big smile and skillfully reaching out his little hand to grab the old man’s white beard.

Mother Cheng, being astute herself, clapped her hands and exclaimed, ”Looks like our little Qi likes Old Master! Look how affectionate he is; it’s rare to get a smile from him usually.”

The elderly enjoy hearing sweet words and love it even more when little children are fond of them. No other reason than growing old, naturally cherishing lively and energetic kids.

So, Old Master Cheng beamed with joy, waving his hand, ”Bring the gift I prepared for Xiaoqi!”

Behind him, Cheng Yaozu fawningly presented a velvet box, and the old man placed that box directly on Qi Xiaoqi. As if knowing it contained something good, the little hands clutched onto the box as if hugging it.

Everyone found it surprising; he’s just a month old, and already so clever.

”Oh, could this little guy be a tiny money-grubber? Knowing good things already?” Cheng Yaozu joked with intrigue from the side.

Mother Cheng replied with pride, ”Our Xiaoqi knows the old man loves him!”

Mother Qi, laughing till her cheeks hurt, felt even more enamored with such a clever child, the pride of the Qi family. She wished she could hug and shower him with kisses, but with the old man holding him, she had to repress her urges.

”Godfather, it’s enough for you to have a drink without bringing gifts! He’s so young, he doesn’t know the difference with gifts or no gifts!” Cheng Su chided playfully.

Old Master Cheng handed the velvet box to her, ”It’s the first meeting between us grandparent and grandchild; a meeting gift is a must. He may not know now, but you should save it for him, and he’ll know in the future!”

Cheng Su had no choice but to say, ”Then I’ll thank you on behalf of this little guy, godfather!”

The old man dismissively waved a hand.

Everyone was curious to see the gift, and Mother Cheng sought to show off, ”Although there’s a saying about not declining a gift from an elder, Old Master, you’re too generous this time. They’re just children; any Silver Bracelet would suffice.”

”It’s nothing much, and it won’t be used now,” Old Master Cheng smiled gently at Qi Xiaoqi.

This only fueled everyone’s curiosity, wondering what the gift could be.

Cheng Yaozu chuckled, ”Sis, the old man is being mysterious. I have no idea what’s inside. Quick, see what treasure Old Master gave; let me broaden my horizons too!”

Cheng Su had to open the box, revealing not gold, jade, or the like, but another title deed. However, unlike the land and house given during the initial recognition, this time Old Master Cheng prepared a shop as a first meeting gift for Qi Xiaoqi, located smack in the Guangcheng Center.

”Godfather, just giving gold, silver, and jade articles would have been fine, but a shop? Does this mean you want him to start a business?” Cheng Su chuckled and closed the box.

Upon gifting an entire shop, everyone present, except Cheng Yaozu and Ying Xiaoya, gasped in shock at such generosity!

The Qi and Cheng families, realizing what happened, were full of joy—the generous gesture was aimed at their grandson!

Mother Qi, watching Old Master Cheng playing and cuddling with the grandchild, no longer felt any envy. She only hoped the child would become even closer to the old man.

”It’s for his pocket money. As the child grows, there will be many expenses. Whether you lease it out or run a business, it’s up to you. The pocket money is for Xiaoqi.” Old Master Cheng said generously.

After all, these things were given by his sons as tributes. At his age, there’s hardly a chance to use it all, so it’s naturally for the younger generation!

Cheng Yaozu made a theatrical outcry accusing Old Master of favoring, to which the old man leisurely replied with a glance at him and Xiao Ya, ”Hurry up and give me a granddaughter, and I’ll give her a piece of land!” Ying Xiaoya blushed, and everyone laughed and joined in the fun.
