Grandpa Wang was furious, and Qin Jingwen could only keep apologizing.
"Don't worry, Grandpa Wang. If it's stupid enough to steal a chicken from your yard again, you can kill it without a word of protest."
The dim-witted boy who was squatting to the side was exhausted from running and was panting with his tongue sticking out. When he heard Qin Jingwen's words, he glanced at Qin Jingwen with his bright, black gem-like eyes.
His eyes were extremely arrogant and disdainful.
Bai Qianmo walked towards Que Xinyan. Upon seeing Bai Qianmo approaching, Que Xinyan quickly retracted his sharp edge, lowered his front paws to the ground, and lay limply on the ground, his body trembling slightly.
That fear emanated from within.
The dimwitted creature whimpered softly. Seeing that Bai Qianmo was already standing in front of it, it even tried to ingratiate itself by reaching out its front paw to touch Bai Qianmo's shoes.
Old Master Wang had a "life-or-death" relationship with Que Xin Yan (a character known for his lack of common sense), so he knew Que Xin Yan quite well.
He is naturally arrogant, tyrannical, deep-thinking, extremely cunning, and loves to cause trouble, just like Qin Laozei in his youth.
Like owner, like dog.
So, what's with this clueless guy putting on a submissive and fawning expression right now?
Just now, he was chasing after the simpleton with a shotgun in hand. The simpleton was originally going to run into the house, but when he saw two little girls standing at the door, he stopped abruptly and turned around to run back in his direction.
It was like seeing a ghost; they weren't even afraid of death anymore.
At this moment, Old Wang's somewhat dim eyes finally looked seriously at Bai Qianmo.
Upon seeing this, they were immediately stunned.
The old man hurriedly took a few steps forward, came to Bai Qianmo's side, and after examining her carefully, he couldn't believe his eyes. He hurriedly took out his reading glasses from his pocket and put them on.
Bai Qianmo stood calmly in place, watching Old Master Wang's strange expression and behavior.
When Grandpa Wang put on his reading glasses and looked at Bai Qianmo again, his dim eyes suddenly widened.
"Grandmaster...Grandmaster Grandmother?"
Bai Qianmo's lips twitched slightly. Being called "Grandmaster" by an elderly woman over sixty years old... what a feeling!
"Sir, are you sure you haven't mistaken me for someone else?"
Grandpa Wang muttered to himself, "There's no mistake! There's absolutely no mistake, it's you, you are our Wang family's ancestral grandmother."
Qin Jingwen subconsciously rubbed her eyes, unable to believe that Grandpa Wang had just called Qianmo "Grandma Ancestral Master".
"Grandpa Wang, this is my friend Qianmo. She is not even twenty years old. You have really mistaken her for someone else."
Old Wang frowned, his face full of shock: "How is that possible? I offer incense to my ancestral master every day and look at her portrait every day. I would never mistake her for someone else."
Bai Qianmo was slightly taken aback, and a thought flashed through her mind.
Could it be that the ancestral master that Old Wang mentioned is Xu Jin'en?
Thinking of this possibility, Bai Qianmo looked at Grandpa Wang: "Is the ancestral master you mentioned surnamed Xu?"
Old Wang's eyes widened, as if he wanted to confirm something: "Come with me."
It really was Xu Jin'en.
Bai Qianmo became increasingly curious about Xu Jin'en.
First, Li Yushu and Zhang Yafei went to pay their respects at Xu Jin'en's grave, then the Wei family of Jinlingtang and Xu Jin'en's connection were revealed, and now Old Master Wang has arrived.
Xu Jin'en was quite unconventional for a woman of that era.
Old Wang waved and, carrying his hunting rifle, took the lead.
Qin Jingwen grabbed Bai Qianmo's sleeve and whispered something in her ear.
"Grandpa Wang's personality is a bit strange, I think you'd better not go."
"It's right across the street, let's go take a look." Bai Qianmo didn't explain anything to Qin Jingwen and quickly followed Old Wang.
"Then I'll go too!" Qin Jingwen looked around, wondering where her cousin had gone. She couldn't let Qianmo go to the Wang family alone.
Old Wang led Bai Qianmo and Qin Jingwen to the Wang family home.
Old Qin and Gu Jueye walked out of the bamboo grove in their yard.
Old Qin stood with his hands behind his back, clutching two walnuts in his hands, occasionally turning them around. He stared at Old Wang's back for a while, then turned his head to look at his beloved grandson.
"Wang Da Nao is really stingy. It's just a few chickens that died. He actually wanted to slaughter my stupid dog and make dog meat soup? That's outrageous."
Seeing that Gu Jueye wasn't speaking up for him, Old Qin deliberately stirred up trouble: "Your wife was taken away by Old Wang next door, aren't you going to go and check on her?"
"You used the wrong words, sir. Mr. Wang is two years older than you."
Old Qin chuckled and said, "Don't forget, there's a young Wang next door, and he's unmarried. These past two years, Old Wang has been looking for girlfriends for his young Wang everywhere. Be careful that your wife doesn't get coveted by the Wang family next door."
Gu Jueye glanced at Old Qin with his indifferent eyes: "Next time you're foolish enough to steal a chicken and get ripped off by Old Wang, remember to send me a bowl of dog meat soup."
Upon hearing Gu Jueye's words, the dim-witted boy couldn't help but shudder and immediately turned around and rushed towards the vegetable garden in the backyard.
Humans are terrifying; it's best to stay far away from them.
"You brat, don't you know how to care for animals? It's a shame you're so fond of them." Old Qin scolded angrily.
“Grandpa, I’m just stating the facts. You let that idiot steal chickens from the Wang family and kill the fighting rooster that Old Wang had carefully raised for two years. His words just now were clearly meant for you.”
After saying that, Gu Jueye walked towards the main entrance.
"Hey kid, where are you going?"
"Let's go for a walk."

Wang Family Ancestral Hall
Old Wang pushed open the heavy mahogany door. The room was filled with memorial tablets, and the curtains were all closed, making the room somewhat dim. Candlesticks were placed on both sides of the altar, and the flickering shadows of the candlelight danced on the row of memorial tablets, creating an atmosphere that was both bright and dark, making the whole room seem even more gloomy.
