Little Huo Shiwu watched his Uncle Ou with a silly expression, played along for a while to appease him, and then let it go.
Having been to the United States with his parents and experienced grand adventures, little Huo Shiwu really had no interest in video games.
It was Ou Cong himself who was quite engrossed in playing.
Seeing this, little Huo Shiwu grew more concerned in his heart.
Sure enough, Uncle Ou was even sillier than before.
Huo Shiwuâs disdainful yet worried little gaze was noticed by Jiang Shuqin, who almost laughed out loud.
Taking advantage of Ou Congâs happiness with the game, Jiang Shuqin pulled Huo Shiwu to her side, hugged him, and whispered, "Shiwu, donât you think your Uncle Ou is quite silly?"
Knowing that Aunt Jiang was a good friend of his mom and also of his Uncle Ou, Huo Shiwu regarded Jiang Shuqin as family and didnât feel the need to hide, so he nodded and said, "Mm, Uncle Ou is very silly."
Hearing this, Jiang Shuqin laughed until her eyes almost disappeared, saying, "Yes, your Uncle is indeed silly!"
Otherwise, he wouldnât have taken so long to figure out why she was always with him in G City.
"So, do you think Aunt Jiang is smart?" Jiang Shuqin asked with a smile, "Do you want Aunt Jiang to help keep an eye on your Uncle Ou?"
Jiang Shuqinâs eyes sparkled with excitement.
Upon hearing this, Huo Shiwu glanced at Jiang Shuqin, and his little eyebrows furrowed.
Hmm, Huo Shiwu thought that perhaps Aunt Jiang was like his own mother, not really that smart?
However, being a sensible child, Shiwu knew he shouldnât say someone wasnât smart.
So, after seriously contemplating, little Huo Shiwu lifted his head and said in a childlike voice to Jiang Shuqin, "Aunt Jiang, youâre better than Uncle Ou, not as silly as Uncle Ou."
Little Huo Shiwu spoke in a very compromising way.
Upon hearing this from little Huo Shiwu, Jiang Shuqin felt it was a bit odd, but since Huo Shiwu was just a child, she didnât think too much and thought it was just how kids express themselves.
So Jiang Shuqin replied, "Then Shiwu, do you think itâs good if Aunt Jiang helps keep an eye on your Uncle Ou?"
"Watch Uncle Ou?" Truth be told, this was really beyond little Huo Shiwuâs understanding, "Is it like the nanny aunt or grandparents watching over me?"
Little Huo Shiwu furrowed his brow, pondering: Do silly adults also need supervision?
No one had ever told him this before.
Little Huo Shiwu began seriously considering the possibility of this situation.
As for Jiang Shuqin, upon hearing little Huo Shiwuâs words, she found it amusing and said, "Not exactly, itâs like your mom keeping an eye on your dad!"
"Like Mom watching Dad?" Little Huo Shiwu was completely puzzled.
In their family, wasnât it Dad who watched Mom?
After thinking about it for a bit, little Huo Shiwu said, "Aunt Jiang, if youâre keeping an eye on Uncle Ou, it will be very tiring, even more than the nanny aunt at home."
"But, Dad and Mom say youâre doing business and earning money with Uncle Ou, so Iâll ask Uncle Ou to give you money, and you can watch him!"
In Huo Shiwuâs mind, this means asking Aunt Jiang to be his Uncle Ouâs nanny and earn money from him.
Jiang Shuqin, however, thought little Shiwu agreed with her becoming his aunt, so she gave Huo Shiwu a big kiss, saying, "Little Shiwu, you are truly a good child!"
