Chapter 29 My Mom Is Really Great!
South replied, “I‘m six and a half years old now, Great–grandpa. I‘m attending school at a noble kindergarten.”
Old Man Nolan stroked his goatee beard and laughed happily. “Well, he‘s very eloquent and quick–witted. Doctor Aubrey, your son is amazing!”
Gianna chuckled. “Yes, but he‘s just too mischievous.”
Old Man Nolan then looked at South carefully before muttering to himself, “It‘s good to be mischievous. All mischievous kids are smart.”
South looked at the little gray beard on Old Man Nolan‘s chin and was eager to touch it. “Great–grandpa, may I touch your beard?”
Old Man Nolan stretched his chin forward and answered happily, “Go ahead!”
Upon hearing South‘s request, Gianna frowned. “Don‘t be rude, South.”
However, Old Man Nolan was generous and replied, “It‘s fine. The child is curious. Go ahead and touch
South‘s eyes were filled with excitement. His small hand gently touched Old Man Nolan‘s beard before he smiled happily. “Great–grandpa, your beard isn‘t prickly at all.”
While he said this, South even touched his own chin and continued, “Why can‘t I grow one?”
After saying those words, the room was filled with laughter, and Old Man Nolan had the happiest smile on him. “Your beard will be long once you‘ve reached my age.”
“Then we‘ll see who will have the longest beard by then?”
Old Man Nolan laughed out loud. “Alright. I‘ll work hard to live longer so that we can compare when the time comes.”
South patted his chest and assured him. “Don‘t worry. Mommy‘s here. She‘ll cure your disease!”
Meanwhile, Gianna‘s face turned dark. She could not understand how South was so confident. Even Gianna dared not to speak a word about this. A soft layer of light shone on Silas‘s face too. He was pleased that this little guy was able to make his grandfather so happy.
