"What, what's wrong?"
Gu Xuelan was worried and looked at Mingzhu.
Mingzhu held her constable's broadsword, her hand rubbing her chin as she spoke, "Auntie Lan, I just went to pick up Jinyan. The other candidates looked listless, but Jinyan seemed refreshed and energetic! Don't you think something is wrong?"
Mingzhu looked as serious as if she was solving a big case, with all the spirit of a detective.
Cheng Jinyan blinked. Is that so?
Gu Xuelan breathed a sigh of relief. She thought it was something else!
"You little bitch! Doesn't this mean our Jinyan is better than those other nerds? There's nothing wrong with that!"
Cheng Yue tapped Mingzhu on the forehead in annoyance.
She knew Cheng Jinyan's situation best, because the dry food and water she brought for Cheng Jinyan were all made by her own hands, using pure palm water without any dilution. It would be strange if Cheng Jinyan was in a bad mood!
"Oh, Auntie Yue! I'm a constable now, can you not hit me? Don't be like Grandpa Cheng!"
Mingzhu rubbed her forehead and lost her composure in a second, turning from a female detective into a little girl.
"cannot!"
Cheng Yue shook her head.
"snort!"
Mingzhu pursed her lips, turned her head away and ignored Cheng Yue.
"Mingzhu, Auntie was just joking with you. Don't be unhappy. There's only one final exam left. After that, I'll take you out to play!"
Cheng Jinyan walked to Mingzhu and coaxed her in a soft voice.
"Great, great! Let's go to the Wanfo Temple! I heard there's a huge peach forest over there, and it's the season when the peach blossoms are in bloom!"
Mingzhu nodded happily, smiling brightly with her eyes curved.
Cheng Jinyan was stunned and nodded stupidly.
Gu Xuelan looked at her son's silly look and her heart was filled with alarm. Oh no, this is not good. My dear son has finally become smart!
"Go, go, go, go home!"
Gu Xuelan quickly pulled Cheng Jinyan out.
Cheng Jinyan did not forget to pull Mingzhu along.
Looking at Cheng Jinyan's hand on Mingzhu's arm, Gu Xuelan felt very uncomfortable.
Fatty Xie sent a few people onto the donkey cart, and the group drove home.
"Jinyan, go sit with your aunt and Uncle Shanshui. Mingzhu, come and sit with me in the back."
Seeing that her son wanted to sit with Mingzhu, Gu Xuelan suggested changing seats.
No one noticed that there was anything wrong with Gu Xuelan.
"Mingzhu, where is Jinyan's second uncle?"
Gu Xuelan pulled Mingzhu's gaze away from her son and asked.
"Uncle Wu said he and Brother Fuzi were going to the north of the city to do some work and would be back soon."
Mingzhu replied.
"You call Jinyan's second uncle "uncle", why do you call Fuzi "brother"? Fuzi calls Jinyan's second uncle "brother."
Gu Xuelan asked again.
"Aunt Lan, you don't understand this! Our two families have a good relationship. Uncle Wu..."
Mingzhu had no idea that Gu Xuelan was deliberately chatting with her to prevent her from talking to Cheng Jinyan. The two of them had a great chat.
As soon as they left the city, Shanshui stopped the car.
"What's wrong?"
Cheng Yue asked curiously.
"Mingzhu, you drive the car. Sister-in-law, Ayue and I have something to do, we'll walk back later."
Shanshui gave Cheng Yue a calming look and then said.
"Oh! Go ahead! Come back early and I'll wait for you to have dinner in the evening."
Gu Xuelan nodded and said.
She thought Shanshui wanted to talk to Cheng Yue alone, maybe because they had just declared their sovereignty to each other and had not had time to say anything!
