Chapter 55 His Apprentice, He Has Responsibility
On Saturday, Meng Chenghong got up early and changed into the new clothes given by her second sister, with a bright smile on her face that never faded.
I can see Grandpa Wu again! My second sister also said that after becoming his disciple, she can go there every day after school to practice calligraphy!
Although it is Saturday, the Meng family is still busy.
Meng Yushu is going to film, Meng Rong is going to work, and Su Wanman is going to open a shop.
Since returning to the Meng family, her parents and brother have been quite indulgent towards Meng Anran, or rather, they are considerate yet a little reserved, and they dare not restrict or disturb her too much.
The only person who dared to disturb her sleeping in was her younger brother Meng Chenghong.
Awakened by the sound of knocking on the door, Meng Anran did not stay in bed, nor did she get grumpy. When she opened the door, she still maintained the demeanor of a daughter of a wealthy family.
Looking at his excited brother, Meng Anran rubbed his head and asked, "So early?"
"Second sister, I want to go find Grandpa Wu as soon as possible!" Meng Chenghong was like a lively and cheerful puppy, staring at Meng Anran expectantly with his round eyes.
This made Meng Anran feel uncomfortable.
"Okay, I'll change and take you there after breakfast."
Helpless, indescribable helplessness.
She had never dealt with children in the past seventeen years. Now everyone is busy on weekends, so she has become a babysitter and has to keep an eye on this little guy who is only as tall as her waist.
What was the name of the film and television character that Liuzhi mentioned before?
Dehua?
After changing into the blue dress she wore on the day she came to Meng's house, combing her long hair and letting it fall casually on her shoulders and applying sunscreen all over her body, Meng Anran walked out of the room in her slippers.
"Anran, I'll leave Xiaohong in your care." Meng Yushu was changing shoes at the entrance, anxious to go out to the crew.
The last five scenes should be filmed in the next two days. He definitely won't have time to look after his brother, so he can only leave it to Meng Anran.
Meng Anran smiled softly but hypocritically, "Okay, I will take good care of him."
The eldest lady doesn’t know how to take care of children. After taking Meng Chenghong to become an apprentice, just leave him to Mr. Wu!
He has a responsibility to his apprentice!
The factory is far away, so Meng Rong has to go out early to drop off Meng Yushu and Su Wanman. He is already waiting downstairs with the car warmed up.
As soon as Meng Yushu left the house, the room suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Only Meng Anran and Meng Chenghong were left.
Looking at his younger brother jumping out of the room with his little schoolbag on his back, Meng Anran smiled on the surface but sighed in his heart.
I kept reassuring myself: "It's okay. At least my little brother knows to go to the bathroom when he needs to pee, uses chopsticks when he eats, and is sensible and not noisy. I'm just a monitor. It's great that I don't have to be a nanny!"
After successfully making herself think more positively, Meng Anran breathed a sigh of relief, put on her high heels, picked up her bag, and glanced at her brother, "Did you bring everything?"
"I brought it!" Meng Chenghong unzipped his schoolbag, checked it, and counted it to his sister. "I brought tissues, power banks, keys, pocket money, and a gift for Grandpa Wu. I brought everything!"
Meng Anran raised her eyebrows slightly, "You even bring tissues and a power bank with you when you go out?"
The child doesn’t even have a mobile phone, so why does he need to carry a power bank?
Meng Chenghong said obediently: "Brother said that girls like to be clean, so you should bring tissues when you go out with girls. Besides, my sister's bags are very small, and it's heavy to carry a power bank. I have to bring it with me in case my sister's phone runs out of battery."
Being obedient, well-behaved and sensible, Meng Anran suddenly felt guilty for disliking her younger brother just now.
He is obviously a simple and cute little kid!
In order to make it convenient for Meng Chenghong to go to Mr. Wu to practice calligraphy after school, a villa was arranged for Mr. Wu near the Seventh Primary School.
A two-story villa with neat and elegant decoration, surrounded by lush green plants. Because there are two osmanthus trees planted in the courtyard, it is named Golden Osmanthus Garden.
There is not only a front garden, but also a back garden. A fish pond was built with large stones, and all the koi that Mr. Wu had raised for several years were moved here.
There is also Mr. Wu’s favorite armchair. The previous one was too old, so Meng Anran personally drew the design and had someone make a new one for him and placed it in the backyard, which is perfect for him to sunbathe.
Unfortunately, Wu Chongxi had no time to sunbathe at the moment. His new address had been leaked, and the gate of the courtyard was almost bursting with people who came to visit him these days.
There was a lot of noise in the front yard as the servants were dealing with the nouveau riche who were dressed in fancy clothes but used rude language.
He was hiding away in a room on the second floor.
"How dare you stop me? Do you know who I am? I'm the daughter of the Lu Group! Can you afford to offend the Lu family?!"
Hearing this arrogant tone, Wu Chongxi paused the short play playing on his phone, stood up, walked to the window, opened it a crack, and looked towards the yard downstairs.
When Wu Chongxi saw the girl who was wearing a luxurious haute couture dress but had no temperament or manners, his brows furrowed into a shape of "川" (川).
He doesn't look like a prince even when wearing a dragon robe. Is this person the real daughter of the Lu family who forced An Ran away?
Lost the pearl in exchange for a fish eye, are Lu Zhong and Bai Yujin blind?
Downstairs, the servants still maintained a polite attitude.
He said to Lu Qingcheng, "Miss, Mr. Wu has an important friend today and is closed to visitors. Please stop making trouble."
"I'm being unreasonable?"
Lu Qingcheng was furious. After being recognized as a member of the Lu family, no one dared to talk to her like that except for those ignorant people around Meng Anran!
"How dare a watchdog talk to me like that! I'm here to buy calligraphy and paintings, and the customer is king! No matter how famous your master is, he's just an old man who can write. How can he not make money? Do you think you're serious if I give him some face? Let him come out to see me immediately!"
She pushed the servant hard in anger, her voice rising and her face becoming ferocious.
The servant was caught off guard and fell to the ground. He didn't care about the scraped skin on his palm and hurriedly got up to stop Lu Qingcheng who was trying to rush in.
"Mr. Wu's move to a new house is such a grand affair. Why is it so lively today?"
A familiar and somewhat arrogant voice came. Lu Qingcheng turned around suddenly and saw the group of people who wanted to visit but did not dare to overstep the line retreating to both sides. Meng Anran appeared at the door holding Meng Chenghong.
Lu Qingcheng stopped in her tracks and stared at Meng Anran as if facing a formidable enemy. "What are you doing here?"
"Of course I'm here to become your disciple." Meng Anran smiled innocently and looked at his younger brother lovingly. "Xiaohong is very talented in calligraphy. If he receives professional training, he will hopefully become the next generation of calligraphy star."
"Oh!" Lu Qingcheng looked as if she had heard a huge joke. She raised her hands and looked down at Meng Anran. "Isn't it too early for you to dream of becoming a great master? Just based on those words, you still want to be a master of calligraphy? I think you are crazy because of poverty. You want the whole Meng family to make profits for you. Now you are not even letting your brother go?"
