"It won't hurt after I ma.s.sage it for you." Tan Mo quietly transmitted energy to the area where the Old Madame had pain, while ma.s.saging the Old Madame's head.
The transmission was gradual, and the Old Madame's headache was slowly relieved. Only after the pain had been gone for a while did Old Madame Wei react.
She hurriedly pulled on Tan Mo's small hand, held it in her hand, and rubbed it as she said, "Ah, don't ma.s.sage it anymore. My headache is gone."
"Really?" Tan Mo knew that with her healing power the Old Madame's headache should have disappeared a while ago, but she still continued to ma.s.sage the Old Madame. "I'm not tired out at all. Grandma, don't worry about me."
"It really doesn't hurt anymore." The Old Madame rubbed Tan Mo's little hand.
Her hands were small, thin, and gentle.
Although Old Madame Wei was a person who had never done any heavy work, she still paid attention to hand care.
But in the end, this little girl's hands were much more delicate than hers had ever been.
She was afraid to rub them too hard. She worried that the rough skin on her hands would make Tan Mo feel uncomfortable.
The Old Madame paid close attention to Tan Mo's reaction, and she noticed that Tan Mo was looking comfortable and smiling with ease.
This little girl didn't even mind her rough skin.
She really liked to snuggle in people's arms and act cute.
The Old Madame didn't know if she was squeamish or not. But she really liked children who were willing to get close to the elderly.
The grandchildren of their family, although now grown up, had even when they were young, ever since they'd started walking on their own, not liked acting like a baby in front of the grandparents.
Not to mention that Wei Zhiqian had never liked acting like a baby ever.
The Old Madame glanced at Wei Zhiqian. She had been really upset because of this.
Wei Zhiqian: "…"
How had he provoked the Old Madame this time?
"Great Grandma, if it hurts again in the future, remember to ask for me. It won't hurt if I am with you." Tan Mo took this opportunity to say it again.
She didn't know if the Old Madame would listen to her, but she wanted to say it a few times and try to get the Old Madame to remember.
Didn't the Old Madame ask for her just because she remembered what she'd said the last time?
Tan Mo spoke in a singsong childish tone, "I have magic, and if I use it a few more times, Grandma's headache will be completely healed!"
How could the Old Madame take her childish words seriously? She said with a smile, "It's true that every time Tan Mo ma.s.sages me, my headache disappears."
Usually, this headache would continue for a long time. How could it disappear so fast?
But the Old Madame didn't think too much about it and only said, "Mo Mo is my lucky star."
"I really envy you for having such a cute little girl," the Old Madame said to Xu Mingzhen with a smile.
"I don't mean to brag, but Mo Mo is indeed a blessed child," Xu Mingzhen said with a smile. "When Mo Mo was born, I had to have a caesarean section. The caesarean section itself wasn't all that bad, but the suffering afterward was very tough."
"Oh, that's true." The Old Madame nodded in sympathy. "When I gave birth to
"Yes, the pain was really torturous during that period. I was prepared for my wounds to hurt from time to time for a year or two, but I didn't expect my wounds to stop hurting after two weeks." Xu Mingzhen covered her mouth and smiled as she said, "I'm afraid of you laughing at me, but I really feel that it was a good blessing that Mo Mo brought me."
"How could I laugh at you?" The Old Madame put a plate of pastries in front of Tan Mo while still holding Tan Mo on her lap. She let Tan Mo eat in her arms. "Isn't it because of Mo Mo that my head doesn't hurt anymore? This is all because of the good blessings brought to me by Mo Mo."
Old Madame Wei turned her head and said to Wei Zhiqian, "When you come back to the ancient mansion in the future, remember to bring Mo Mo. I will miss her."
The Tan brothers were shocked and anxious when they heard this. Why is there now one more person trying to s.n.a.t.c.h Mo Mo away from them?
And this was someone they couldn't refuse.
Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen were also very troubled, because they would be spending less time with their daughter.
Xu Mingzhen regretted even having started it.
Only Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo were very happy.
Especially Tan Mo, because she now had a legitimate excuse to cure Old Madame Wei's headache.
Old Madame Wei is so nice and she treated everyone so kindly, so she must cure her headaches.
…
Time flew by, and the years pa.s.sed quickly.
Because Tan Mo had accompanied Wei Zhiqian back to the ancient mansion frequently, she had cured Old Madame Wei's headaches.
After a doctor's examination and a follow-up visit, it was clear that Old Madame Wei's headaches were really completely healed.
Since Tan Mo had started to go to the ancient house frequently, the frequency of the Old Madame's headaches had become less and less. And, even if she sometimes got a headache, the period of the duration of the pain became shorter and shorter.
Tan Mo was regarded as a blessing in the ancient house.
Plus, Tan Mo was cute and likable, and she wasn't the kind of person who got arrogant after being pampered.
Even if the two elders of the Wei family and Wei Zhiqian were very fond of her, she hadn't become arrogant, but was still very well-behaved and polite to everyone in the house.
Therefore, everyone in the house loved Tan Mo.
When the Old Madame's headache was completely healed, the love for Tan Mo from everyone in the house reached an unprecedented level.
They all blindly believed that this was a blessing that had been brought about by Tan Mo.
Otherwise, how come the Old Madame's headache hadn't gotten any better during all the many years before?
After all, the doctors who had treated her were the top-notch doctors from across the country.
Therefore, the affection for Tan Mo from everyone in the ancient house was only slightly less than that of Wei Zhiqian.
Wei Keli couldn't compare to her at all.
With affection from everyone, Tan Mo grew to age 15.
She was already a teenage girl.
One day, she went to the mall with Qin Muye and Ming Yeqing, mainly to buy stationary for her college entrance examination and to relax by shopping.
"Ha, ha, ha, in a blink of an eye, you are already going to take the college entrance examination, yet I am still in the first year of high school." Qin Muye said in a depressed tone. "You will all graduate soon, and I will be left alone in Jixia Academy. How lonely will I be."
Ming Yeqing's eyes rippled with mirth. He had already grown into a handsome and elegant young man. He said to Qin Muye, "After Mo Mo skipped grades, it was too boring for me to stay in the cla.s.s by myself with those stuck-up people, so I wanted to either transfer to your cla.s.s or skip grades as well. When discussing it with you, didn't I tell you that I was afraid that Mo Mo would be the youngest in the cla.s.s and therefore be bullied by older cla.s.smates, so I skipped grades to accompany Tan Mo?"
"I know. Among the three of us, I'm the most stupid, so I can't skip grades." Qin Muye was so frustrated that she scratched her head.
Ming Yeqing wasn't able to take the exam to skip grade levels in the first semester of the first grade, so he took it in the second semester of the first grade.
