"I am Schmidt, Adele Lucy Maria Schmidt." The woman introduced herself, "I am Nicole's mother, you can call me Mrs. Schmidt."

"Hello, Mrs. Schmidt."

Because I have some understanding of Joseph's family, I unconsciously bowed to this family who is in trouble, who raises a poor son alone, and a daughter's mother to show my respect.

"Hello, Mr. Gun."

Mrs. Schmidt bowed slightly to me, as a return of the gift.

"First of all, I would like to thank you for your previous help. Without your help, I really don't know how to adjust my mood and start the new year. I'll find a way to return the money Joseph owes you."

"Uh... this... Mrs. Schmidt, the money is owed by Joseph, and you should not pay it back. Besides, I am not in a hurry to use the money, you don't have to take it seriously."

"You are a good man, Mr. Gun. Thank you."

Mrs. Schmidt bowed to me again, and I hurriedly returned the gift. After getting up, she said again.

"I'll ask you a wise man, Mr. Gun, you probably won't block Manny, right?"

"Uh... I didn't know anything about it before, but I learned a few words a while ago, such as 'Buwude', brother, 'Van Ander', friend, and 'Fouvosnai', Happy New Year."

“Do you know these three words?”

"Uh... well... there is another one, 'Dangke', which means thank you. There is also 'Yishi Libidishi'. I will say this sentence, but I don't know what it means."

After listening to my words, Mrs. Schmidt murmured in the Chömani language. I couldn't understand what she was saying, but judging from her expression, she was probably saying "It's true."

"Mr. Gun, did that lady teach you this word?"

"Well, she taught it."

"Did she say this word to you, that only to her, not to others?"

"Uh, how do you know?"

Mrs. Schmidt shook her head with a wry smile, without answering my question.

"If I guess correctly, you said this to Nicole a few days ago, just to know what it means, right?"

Uh…though not exactly that, I do have this idea.

"That's right."

Mrs. Schmidt smiled helplessly, then showed a embarrassed expression, and muttered a little bit of Chamani. After that, she smiled bitterly and said.

"Mr. Gun, Ni is a very introverted child. Because she is not good at communicating with others, she has never learned to speak well. If it weren't for the bankruptcy of her family, she had to leave her former mansion, and she still could not communicate with her. I watched her grow up and never saw her quarrel with others.

But now, Mr. Gun, please look over there. Nicole was arguing with the lady for you and made a loud noise - can you understand what I mean?"

Uh…she means that Nicole cares about me and even likes me?

No way!

Including today, I have only met her three times in total, and the conversations that can be regarded as communication are only about ten. I don’t know her, and she doesn’t know me, so how could I fall in love with it?

"When Joseph was at home, he often mentioned you."

Mrs. Schmidt smiled as if she had seen through my thoughts and continued.

"He would occasionally come back with food, saying that it was packed from the restaurant, and it was your guest. Because he always lies, Nicole and I didn't believe what he said, and thought that everything he said was made up about you. It was not until some time ago that Nicole saw you with his own eyes that he knew that Joseph did not lie this time-"

"Hey! Have you said enough?"

At this time, Xiaoju suddenly stopped Mrs. Schmidt and interrupted her.

"Didn't you say you want to resolve the misunderstanding? Why do you tell my son-in-law that there are any of these things?"

"That's it!"

Xiaolian also followed and stood next to Xiaoju. Although they were all facing away from me, I felt that their eyes must be unfriendly when they looked at Mrs. Schmidt.

Mrs. Schmidt smiled again, turned her eyes to Xiaoju and Xiaolian, and said in a calm voice.

"I am indeed resolving the misunderstanding. I just solved one misunderstanding, and there is still one more time. Please give me a few more words and ask me to confirm some information with Mr. Gun. Is it okay?"

Because Miss Bi and Nicole were still arguing, and Xiaoju and Xiaolian were not the kind of people who had their own ideas, they could only move aside again and let Mrs. Schmidt talk to me.

"Mr. Gun, these two girls call you 'son-in-law'. Are you and that lady already married? Or are you and her already engaged?"

"I'm going to get engaged soon!" Before I could answer, Xiaoju stopped Mrs. Schmidt again: "I'll get married after getting engaged!"

"It's about to get engaged soon...that is, it's not yet engaged." Mrs. Schmidt narrowed her eyes and showed a meaningful smile: "Mr. Gun, judging from your attitude towards that lady, you must have worked hard with her, right?"

"Talent, talent is not hard!"

At this time, Xiaolian also stopped Mrs. Schmidt and raised her little head fiercely.

"My son-in-law is gentle! He likes my lady the most! He has sent many roses to the lady and wrote love poems!"

Hey hey hey! Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t understand!

Roses and love poems are used to apologize! They have nothing to do with whether they like or not!

Mrs. Schmidt showed an unexpected expression. She looked at me, lowered her head and thought for a few seconds, then raised her lips slightly, muttered a few words of Chamani, and then asked me.

"Mr. Gun, do you know Westerners?"

"Uh, sorry, I don't know much."

"I see."

Although he said "so that's it", Mrs. Schmidt's face looked like "it's true" and he nodded twice with a smile.

"Mr. Gun, you are such a lovely person."

"Uh, that...thank you for the compliment."

Mrs. Schmidt's praise came too abruptly, and I didn't know how to answer except thanking me.

"Okay, both of you, the misunderstanding has been resolved." Mrs. Schmidt said to Xiaoju and Xiaolian with a smile, "The misunderstanding in my heart is resolved, but the misunderstanding in your heart is not there yet. I would like to advise you to go back and persuade your lady to think about it carefully. If you can't figure it out, come to Mr. Gun and ask whatever you want, and ask whatever you want.

You oriental people have a saying that short pain is worse than long pain. There is also a saying that a twisted melon is not sweet. Let go in time before suffering deeper injuries. This is the choice of smart people.”

After leaving this sentence that made Xiaoju and Xiaolian confused, Mrs. Schmidt bowed to me again. Before I could repay the gift, she turned around and walked to Nicole who was still quarreling with Miss Bi. It seemed that she was about to cry by Miss Bi. She gently patted her shoulder, whispered something to her, and then took her away.
