"Sister, who's that?" Mei Jian saw Mei Si and a woman with their arms around each other from a distance.
Mei Si was honest and straightforward, and Mei Jian was worried that she was being deceived, so he quickly took a few steps to see who the woman was. Unexpectedly, before he could get close, the woman left. Could it be that she noticed him coming?
"What are you doing here? I thought you went to your grandma's house. Why are you mumbling like that? Open your mouth and speak properly!" Mei Si saw that Mei Jian's lips were practically glued to his mouth when he spoke, and she immediately felt an itch to slap him.
"This is a special case for me, it will be fine in a while." Mei Jian's face fell, and he licked his empty upper gum with his tongue.
"What's the special situation? Let me see." Upon hearing about the special situation, Mei Si became curious and went forward to try to pry open Mei Jian's mouth to take a look.
"Hey? Why are you hitting me? You can't do this!" Mei Jian was so frightened when his sister started hitting him that he quickly backed away.
Mei Jian was cornered against the wall, with nowhere to hide, but he didn't want to give in so easily. He waved his arms vigorously, trying to stop his sister from touching his mouth.
"Behave yourself and let me see!" Mei Si frowned as she looked at the unusually agitated Mei Jian, and impatiently grabbed both of Mei Jian's wrists.
"Waaah~~! No, no..." Mei Jian was completely helpless against his sister's immense strength. He shook his head helplessly, hoping that his sister would let him go.
"What are you doing?" Wang Ce Lou frowned as he looked at Mei Si and the other person's current posture.
Wang Celou: This looks more like a bully harassing a respectable woman. No, it's a man.
"You are... Brother Wang! Please save me! My sister is bullying me!" Mei Jian turned to look at Wang Celou and saw him standing at the gate of the Wang family. He immediately guessed who he was.
“Meisi, you’re acting a bit like a girl,” Wang Celou said, glaring at Mei Si’s hand that was gripping Mei Jian’s.
"Oh~!" Mei Si let go of Mei Jian in disappointment, took a few steps back, tugged at her clothes, and looked obedient.
Mei Jian breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at his "well-behaved" sister, leaned closer to Wang Celou, and gave him two thumbs up.
"Brother Wang, I admire no one but you!" Mei Jian was absolutely in awe of Wang Ce Lou. He was amazing that he could make his sister so obedient!
"Hmm!" Wang Celou carefully examined Mei Jian and felt that he didn't look like a member of the Mei family at all.
Wang Celou: His eyes are upturned at the corners, his gaze is half-drunk, and his lips are as red as if he has applied rouge. This is a true peach blossom face. No one in the Mei family for three generations has had this kind of face. Could he have been switched at birth?
"Hey! You're all here. Dinner's ready, come inside and eat!" As soon as Mei Liang stepped out of the yard, he saw Mei Si and the other two were there and waved them back to eat.
As soon as Wang Ce Lou entered the house, he saw that the bowls and chopsticks were all set out, and he immediately felt a little embarrassed. He shouldn't have lingered in the next room for so long; he should have come back earlier.
"Jianjian, why are you back? Didn't you say you were going to celebrate your classmate's birthday?" Mei's mother was taken aback when she saw her youngest son following her daughter into the house. Didn't her son say he would be back in the afternoon? Why is he back so early?
"Mom, am I really your biological child?" Mei Jian covered her mouth and said sadly.
“Yes, it is you. Dad went to the hospital to confirm it,” Mei Si interjected.
"Have some manners, kid. Speak properly. Why are you covering your mouth?" Mei's father said, frowning at Mei Jian.
"This is a special case for me, you should understand!" Mei Jian covered his mouth and sat down next to Grandma Mei, not afraid of Dad Mei at all.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you always covering your mouth? Did you cut your lip? Come here, let Grandma take a look!" Grandma Mei knew that Mei Jian usually paid the most attention to his appearance. Today, he had been covering his mouth the whole time, so there must be something wrong with his mouth.
"No, there are so many old people here!" Mei Jian moved aside, dodging Grandma Mei's outstretched hand.
"Pfft! This child is shy! We're family, what's there to be embarrassed about?" Grandma Mei was amused by her grandson's bashful manner.
“I…who’s embarrassed? I’m not!” Mei Jian was annoyed by Grandma Mei’s teasing. He took his hand away from his mouth and stretched his neck to shout.
"Pfft! Hahaha..." Mei Liang pointed at his younger brother's mouth and burst into laughter.
"I was wondering why Jianjian's voice sounded so strange today. Turns out he's missing a front tooth and is whistling! Hahaha..." Looking at her youngest son's missing front tooth, Mei's mother couldn't help but laugh.
“You still call yourselves family? Grandma, look at them!” Mei Jian quickly covered his mouth and looked at Grandma Mei with a wronged expression.
"Hey! What are you laughing at? Everyone's lost their baby teeth, right? Hold it in!" Grandma Mei said sternly, trying to pull her lips down when she saw her grandson looking aggrieved.
"Mom, if you want to have fun, just have fun. It's so uncomfortable to hold it in." Seeing that Grandma Mei's face was flushed red, Dad Mei gave his youngest son a warning look and said.
"What are you laughing at?" Mei Si looked around, not understanding what was so funny about Mei Jian losing his tooth. Even Wang Ce Lou's lips curled up in a smile.
"Exactly! What's so funny!" When Mei Jian saw that his sister wasn't laughing, he immediately felt that his sister was still the best to him.
Mei Jian: If I had known, I wouldn't have gone to celebrate Chen Linlin's birthday today. I should have stayed home and waited for my sister!
Mei Jian went to Chen Linlin's house today to attend her birthday party, intending to have a meal there and then come back.
But when they arrived at Chen Linlin's house, Chen's mother insisted that Mei Jian eat an ice pop to cool off.
Well, now look what happened. A popsicle knocked out my front tooth, and right in front of so many people.
Mei Jian felt hurt, as if he had been stabbed in the heart by an ice pop. Before everyone started laughing, he left early, clutching his wounded heart.
Mei Jian went home, expecting his family to comfort him, but instead they laughed at him, and he felt heartbroken.
Mei Jian: Thank goodness, my sister didn't laugh. She's still the best to him!
Mei Jian leaned on his sister's shoulder, automatically blocking out the annoying laughter around him.
"Alright, alright! That's enough, let's eat!" Grandma Mei smiled for a while, then turned her head and saw her granddaughter looking pitifully at the braised pork. Grandma Mei felt sorry for her and quickly urged everyone to start eating.
Mei Si couldn't wait any longer. When she saw Grandma Mei pick up some food, she immediately stretched out her chopsticks and quickly and accurately grabbed the largest piece of braised pork and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Eat slowly, it's all yours!" Seeing her granddaughter eating quickly, Grandma Mei reached out her chopsticks and put several more pieces into her bowl.
Mei Jian watched his sister eat with grease dripping from her mouth, and he also felt a little envious. However, he knew what his grandmother's braised pork tasted like, and he didn't think it was particularly delicious. Could it be that he was performing exceptionally well today?
Mei Jian hesitated for a moment, then picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. Sure enough, it still tasted the same as before, not as good as what you get at restaurants.
