Chapter 171 Honest Sophora japonica



Li Qinghe ignored the confused He Yushui and looked at Yi Zhonghai, "Uncle, Brother Zhuzi doesn't understand, you have to help him keep an eye on it, right?"

"Don't worry, I will be careful." Yi Zhonghai nodded with a smile.

The old lady smiled happily. With Yi Zhonghai's help, she didn't have to worry about her eldest grandson being plotted against.

Then he looked at He Yushui with some regret.

"This girl is also a fool. It would be great if she could be with Li Qinghe. She is cautious and intelligent at a young age. She is also capable. But looking at the things he got today, you can tell that he has a complicated relationship behind him and a martyr background. Why didn't I see that he is so capable before? It's a pity that both of them have partners."

She believed that what Li Qinghe said about having a partner was true. The look in his eyes could not lie and it seemed that he was very satisfied with this partner.

"The braised pork is here! Get ready to eat."

At this time, He Yuzhu came out holding a large bowl, followed by an old lady holding a plate of braised fish.

She went to the market to buy this fish when she learned that she was going to adopt He Yuzhu as her godson.

When she heard the news, she jumped for joy.

Looking at the table full of meat and vegetables, He Yushui swallowed his saliva, "It smells so good. I haven't had such a good meal during the Chinese New Year."

Li Qinghe smiled and said, "This is different. The Chinese New Year is celebrated every year, but recognizing relatives is different. This is the only time in a lifetime, so of course we have to prepare with all our strength."

As he spoke, he opened the bottle of wine and filled a glass for himself, Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu. At the old lady's strong request, he also poured her half a glass.

As for Auntie and He Yushui, they could only drink tea instead of wine.

"Brother Zhuzi, today you acknowledge your uncle and aunt as your godparents, so we won't make things too complicated. You kowtow to them, and then serve them tea and wine. That will be considered as confirming our relationship. How do you do that?"

He Yuzhu nodded immediately, "Okay, that's it."

After that, with the deaf old lady as witness, he asked the uncle and aunt to sit side by side. He Yuzhu kowtowed to them one by one, served them tea, and called them godfather and godmother. It ended just like that.

"Oh, good, good, good son."

The two elders were so happy that they burst into tears and didn't know what to say. After most of their lives, finally someone called them dad and mom.

Then, under the instigation of Li Qinghe, He Yuzhu decided to go all out and asked the deaf old lady to sit down, kowtowed to her and offered her tea, and formally acknowledged her as his grandmother.

They just called each other that before, but now we have really become grandfather and grandson.

The old lady was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth and her teeth were about to fall out from laughing.

Afterwards, they sat around the table and drank a glass together.

Just as he put down the cup and had no time to pick up his chopsticks, the door was suddenly pushed open and Banggeng came in with Xiaodang Huaihua holding bowls.

"Old lady, uncle, aunt, Aunt Rain, Shazhu, we are hungry and we want to eat meat."

Li Qinghe narrowed his eyes, making it impossible to see his expression.

Good man, there were a lot of people sitting around but no one called me. You really hold a grudge, kid.

Yi Zhonghai and the old lady stood there in a daze, unable to come back to their senses.

I was so happy that tears were streaming down my face just now, but suddenly a few people who spoiled my mood came in, and my mood was interrupted. I felt extremely upset.

If it were in the past, he would have endured it, because he had no children and had to rely on others to support him in his old age.

But now that I have a son, do I still need to endure your anger?

With a gloomy face, he said in a cold voice: "Bang Geng, you are already a teenager, don't you know any manners? Didn't your family teach you to knock on the door when entering someone else's house? Also, if you want to eat meat, you can just take the bowl to someone else's house and ask for it?"

The old lady also looked at them with a cold face. It is true that she has a kind heart, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have a temper.

I had just adopted him as my godson and hadn’t had time to enjoy him when the atmosphere was ruined. Even a clay man would be angry.

He Yuzhu was as heartless as ever, still smiling, "You kid, you must be hungry, come, Uncle Silly will make you something."

Li Qinghe looked at him in surprise. "Silly uncle?" You said that about yourself? Can't you tell that someone else is scolding you? Why are you still accepting it? Didn't you hear him call you "Silly Zhu" after he came in?

He Yushui put down the chopsticks she had just raised. She looked at the old man and the old woman, then at her brother with a silly face, and always felt that something was wrong.

Moreover, Li Qinghe and the deaf old lady had smiling faces.

He Yuzhu's words made the uncle and aunt helpless. They were already very unhappy, but looking at He Yuzhu's expression, they didn't know what to do.

Banggeng didn't care what they thought. When he heard what He Yuzhu said, his face was filled with joy and he ran over with the bowl in his hand.

However, when He Yuzhu reached for the braised pork in the bowl with his chopsticks, he was blocked by Li Qinghe.

"Banggeng, come here." He waved to Banggeng.

Banggeng was nearly crushed to death last time, and he still has psychological trauma, so he instinctively took a step back.

"What are you doing? I'm not going over there."

As he spoke, his face was defensive, ready to run away at any moment.

Li Qinghe smiled and said, "Tell me, did you guys want to eat, or did someone ask you to come?"

Bang Geng thought about it. His grandmother had told him not to say that she asked him to come. He immediately said, "I wanted to eat. I didn't have enough to eat at night. Sha Zhu had some meat here, so I came over."

Li Qinghe nodded, and suddenly looked at Huaihua who was drooling, "Come, Huaihua, come to your uncle, I'll give you some meat."

Huaihua was only three years old. When she heard that there was meat to eat and that Li Qinghe had never beaten her, she immediately ran over happily.

"Huaihua, don't go." Banggeng felt something was wrong and wanted to stop Huaihua, but unfortunately he was a step too slow and watched Huaihua run past him.

Li Qinghe put a piece of fat braised pork into Huaihua's mouth and asked gently, "Is it delicious?"

"Hmm, it's delicious and smells so good." Huaihua squinted her eyes happily and nodded vigorously.

"Then Huaihua, tell your uncle the truth. Did you come here on your own or did someone teach you? If you tell the truth, your uncle will give you meat."

Huaihua blinked her eyes, looked at the braised pork on the table, and immediately betrayed the person behind her, "It was grandma who asked us to come. She asked us to bring bowls and eat meat, and she also asked us to take some back and share with her."

Li Qinghe smiled gently and touched her little head. "Huaihua is so well behaved. She is a good child. Come, I will give you some meat."

After that, he added two pieces of braised pork, a few pieces of chicken, and a piece of roe deer meat to her meal.

She looked at the meat in the bowl with shining eyes. She didn't care about anything else and just grabbed it with her hands and stuffed it into her mouth.

Li Qinghe raised his head, his face had become expressionless.

"Uncle, what do you think?"

Yi Zhonghai looked unhappy and poured himself a glass of wine and drank it silently.

If we were to say who was the most embarrassed at this moment, it would be He Yuzhu, who didn't know where to put his hands.

It is true that he likes Bang Geng. After all, because of Qin Huairu, he has taken extra care of the children over the years. In addition, he loves the children because of their love for him, so he has feelings for them.

But what happened today was really not fair on the part of Jia Zhang. It was obvious that they were plotting against them and treating them as scapegoats.

So you are the only smart person in the yard, and others can't see through your tricks?
