Chapter 490: Pickle Jar



After leaving the scrap yard, Li Mingxi got on his bicycle and prepared to leave.

As a result, he had not taken two steps when he ran into Leng Zhao.

However, even if he saw someone, Li Mingxi didn't want to say hello to him. After all, they were not particularly close friends, so what difference did it make whether they talked or not?

Leng Zhao, on the other hand, was originally feeling depressed because his uncle sent him here, but he never expected that he would see Li Mingxi in the blink of an eye.

This is such a big surprise!

Look, before he even got close to her, he was already waving excitedly at Li Mingxi.

Li Mingxi rode his bike, just glanced at him sideways, and continued walking forward without saying a word.

Leng Zhao was a little angry when he saw that Li Mingxi ignored him. He felt that Li Mingxi was disrespectful to him!

Originally, no matter what his uncle told him to do, he should come here and keep an eye on Old Man Wang, but Leng Zhao was unwilling to do so.

He felt that his uncle was just making a big deal out of nothing. The old man was just an older man and there was nothing to worry about!

Besides, even if he knows some medical skills, what can he do?

There aren't any patients in their family who need medical treatment? Besides, even if there were, aren't the doctors in those big hospitals much better than the doctors in remote places like this old man's?

He tried to talk about this with his uncle, trying to make him understand his reasons, but his uncle just told him to keep a close eye on the person and that the rest was none of his business and he didn't need to worry about it.

Okay, since uncle said so, he won’t care anymore!

As long as he keeps a good eye on the old man here, as long as he keeps a good eye on the old man, his uncle will allow him to go to the army to practice shooting.

He has always wanted to learn how to shoot in the army, but his family refused for various reasons.

Now that he finally has the chance, wouldn't he be a fool if he doesn't seize it?

Just today, after dinner, I told my uncle and he came here happily.

What a coincidence, he actually ran into Li Mingxi here.

But what made him unhappy now was that Li Mingxi saw him but didn't say a word. He was so enthusiastic, so why was she so cold to him?

What? Don’t you take him seriously?

Thinking of this, he spoke directly, "Hey, Li Mingxi, why are you here?"

"Are you here to look for the old man, or are you simply looking for something? I see you brought a lot of things with you."

Because Old Man Wang was leaving, Li Mingxi was feeling depressed at the moment.

By not saying hello to Leng Zhao just now, I have already made my attitude clear: I don’t want to bother with him!

Who would have thought that this person would be so shameless. Even if I didn't talk to him, he would find me and talk to me. Li Mingxi had never seen such a shameless person!

After waiting for a while, I saw that Li Mingxi didn't say anything.

Leng Zhao continued speaking.

"Hey, why aren't you talking? Didn't I just ask you? Why are you ignoring me?"

As he spoke, he had already dodged and stopped Li Mingxi's car.

With his way blocked, Li Mingxi couldn't go any further.

"What's wrong? Why are you stopping me? Is there something wrong?"

"Didn't I just ask you? Why have you been ignoring me all this time? You had to wait for me to stop you before you spoke. What's wrong with you?"

Li Mingxi looked up and looked at him apologetically, "I'm so sorry, I was just walking and didn't hear you talking!"

After hearing this explanation, Leng Zhao swallowed back what he wanted to say.

"Okay!"

After a pause, he continued, "I was just asking you why you came here. Are you here to see the old man?"

Thinking back to what he had just said to the old man, Li Mingxi sighed inwardly, and then shook his head slightly.

"No, you're overthinking it. My grandma wanted to pickle some vegetables, but we ran out of jars at home, so I came to the scrap yard to get some for our own use!"

Leng Zhaoyuan thought that Li Mingxi wanted to take these porcelains back for collection, but he never expected that he would hear her say that she wanted to use these porcelains to pickle pickles!

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, okay, it seems he was overthinking it.

He was just thinking that this female comrade had good taste and the things she picked looked valuable, but he never expected that she was actually going to take them home to make something!

"In that case, I want these porcelain pieces. Can you give them to me? I'll give you money and you can buy more. You pickle vegetables anyway, right? It doesn't matter what kind of jar you use, right?"

Hearing this, Li Mingxi first looked up at Leng Zhao, and then lowered her head slightly. What's going on? Is he taking her for a fool?

He thought she didn't know these things, so he wanted to cheat her. Isn't that wishful thinking? These things were all found by her with great difficulty. Why should he give them to others? Wouldn't her work be in vain?

Then, she spoke with a firm face and an unquestionable voice.

"No, I just like these things, especially the beautiful patterns on them. The ones in the department store don't have such patterns. Besides, grandma arranged for me to take these things home today before I came. I'm so embarrassed!"

Leng Zhao originally wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Li Mingxi's words.

Finally, he could only say with a look of regret, "Okay then!"

As he spoke, he looked at those things reluctantly, as if he couldn't let them go!

Looking at his expression, Li Mingxi said nothing more and turned to leave.

When Leng Zhao saw Li Mingxi was about to leave, he spoke anxiously.

"Hey, don't go away. We haven't even talked yet. Why are you in such a hurry?"

Li Mingxi thought that he had nothing to say to Leng Zhao, so after hearing what he said, he ignored him and just pedaled faster!

Seeing Li Mingxi leaving quickly, it was useless for Leng Zhao to stop her.

However, seeing Li Mingxi's eager look to leave, Leng Zhao felt really puzzled.

I didn't provoke her, and everything was fine. Why does this person dislike me so much?

Forget it, forget it, don’t think about it anymore, never mind her, let her do whatever she wants.

Thinking of this, Leng Zhao turned around and continued walking forward.

Ever since Leng Zhao appeared, Huo Jingchen felt that things were developing a little unusually.

Li Mingxi is the old man's friend, so it's normal for him to appear here. But what about Leng Zhao?

He came here for no apparent reason. Could it be that Leng Feng was going to take some action?

Or has the Leng family also discovered the old man and now wants to take him away?

Watching Leng Zhao disappear at the door of the scrap yard, Huo Jingchen immediately made a decision in his mind.

He decided to take Old Man Wang away tonight before Leng Feng discovered them.

Since Leng Zhao has come here, it means that Leng Feng must have discovered something. If they don’t leave now.

By the time Leng Feng arrived, it was too late!

Maybe it will cause some unnecessary trouble.
