Boss Ye drove the car and took Sister Ye and Qingtian to the Cen Mansion in the capital.
During the Chinese New Year, the couple had brought Qingtian to pay New Year's greetings to Mr. Cen, so Menzi immediately recognized the coachman Ye Lao Da.
Recently, Meng Yu had nothing to do during the Chinese New Year, so he stayed in the gatehouse, eating melon seeds and chatting with the doorman about various gossips in the capital during the Chinese New Year.
When Meng Yu saw Boss Ye driving his car to the door, he didn't react for a moment. He thought, the New Year has passed, why are there still people coming to pay New Year's greetings?
Menzi nudged him and said, "Brother Meng, it's Miss You and Miss Qingtian who are here!"
"Ouch!" Meng Yu jumped up from his chair and ran out before the doorman could. "Qingtian is here. Let Uncle Meng see if you've grown taller recently."
Qingtian said helplessly: "Uncle Meng, you just saw me on the fifth day of the New Year!"
Even if a child is in the growth stage, he or she will not grow so fast in just a dozen days.
"Yes, yes, Qingtian still has a good memory. Uncle Meng, it feels like I haven't seen you for a long time. It really feels like a long time since I last saw you."
Meng Yu’s words immediately made Qingtian laugh.
Mrs. Ye asked, "Is Grandfather home?"
"Here!" Meng Yu said hurriedly, "If the master knew you were here, he would be overjoyed."
After he finished speaking, he saw Boss Ye carrying a lot of things out of the car, and he scolded him, "Didn't the master tell you before that you can come whenever you want, but don't bring anything.
"Seeing you all come with so many bags, the master will definitely lose his temper again."
Boss Ye smiled and said, "Don't worry, this time the old man will not only not lose his temper, but will be very happy."
"Why?" Meng Yu handed Qingtian to Mrs. Ye and took a bag from Boss Ye.
When I held it in my hand, I realized that this thing didn't look like a gift at all, but more like bedding and luggage.
Ye Laodao said: "Something happened at home, so I sent them here to stay for a few days."
"What's the matter?" Meng Yu subconsciously said something in not very standard Northeastern dialect, "If you need any help, just let me know."
"It's nothing serious. As you know, something happened to the fourth son's wife before, and now her family has come here to escape the famine and find us.
"My mother was worried that Qingtian was too young and might scare her, so she asked me to send her and her daughter here to stay for a few days, and to take the fourth child home with me.
"I'll come pick them up after everything is settled."
Meng Yu naturally knew about the Guo incident, and upon hearing this, he comforted her, "You don't have to worry. The incident was already filed with the government, and isn't the man still in jail?
"This case has all the evidence, even if her family wanted to cause trouble, they wouldn't be able to do anything!"
"That being said, it's not a glorious thing after all. Old Four finally got over it. I hope this can be resolved as low-key as possible."
"That's right." Meng Yu nodded in agreement. "If this gets out of hand, who knows what will happen. If it affects the fourth brother, it will be bad for his wife."
Meng Yu's words immediately touched the heart of Boss Ye. Old Madam Ye also thought the same, so she had been entertaining the people from the Guo family well for the past two days, hoping that the two families would not fall out in the end and that they could handle the matter in a decent manner.
Meng Yu walked into the main house with his luggage. Mr. Cen was sitting on the bed reading a book in the sunlight outside.
He said cheerfully, "Master, stop reading and look who's here."
Old Cen raised his head and looked over. Before he could see who the people at the door were, he heard Qingtian's sweet voice.
"Great-grandfather!"
Although Mr. Cen was already presbyopic, his ears were still very sharp and he immediately recognized that it was Qingtian's voice.
"Oh my dear!" Elder Cen immediately dropped the book in his hand and went to meet him. "How come you have time to come and see Great-Grandfather today?"
Mr. Cen walked over and reached out to take Qingtian away.
Mrs. Ye quickly said, "Be careful, she's been feeling quite heavy lately!"
"I'm not so old that I can't even hold a child." Old Cen said, happily taking Qingtian. "Grandpa has saved some goodies for you, just waiting for you to play with them!"
Meng Yu put the things in his hand aside and interrupted, "Master, you are wrong this time.
"Sunny girl isn't here to play."
"What are you doing here?" After hearing what Meng Yu said, Elder Cen thought that Boss Ye and Sister Ye were in the city on business and wanted to temporarily leave Qingtian with him. He waved his hand and said, "You two can go about your business. Don't worry, just leave the child with me!"
Meng Yu couldn't help laughing when he heard this. "Oh, old man, you really don't want a granddaughter anymore now that you have a great-granddaughter. Madam You wants to bring Qingtian over to stay for a few days. Are you welcome?"
Because Meng Yu was lively and always liked to joke around, Mr. Cen didn't believe what he said.
"Don't try to deceive me." Elder Cen rolled his eyes at him and said, "The Chinese New Year will be over after the 15th. If you try to make fun of me again, you little bastard, I'll beat you up."
"Who's deceiving you?" Meng Yu said as he moved aside, revealing the bundle on the chair behind him. "Look, Madam You even brought her bedding and luggage."
Elder Cen shuddered when he heard this, turned to look at Sister Ye and asked, "How many days can you really stay?"
"Yes!" Mrs. Ye said a little awkwardly, "Is it okay to disturb you?"
"Oh, what do you mean by disturbing our family?" Elder Cen was overjoyed. "I've already asked someone to clean up the room for you. You can come anytime you want to stay here. You don't need to bring any bedding. Everything has been prepared at home."
