Chapter 155 Mu Xingchun
Several people carrying large and small bags walked to the front of a low, small house.
Looking at the dilapidated house in front of them, Lu Yi and Ye Ran showed no sign of anything unusual.
Li Qin showed no embarrassment and warmly greeted them, "Alright, this is my home, please come in!"
Ye Ran smiled at her and went in first. Lu Yi bent down slightly and teased, "This door is a bit low!"
Yun Hao patted him on the shoulder, "That's because you're too tall! Who told you to be so tall? You're useless anyway. Hurry up and go inside!"
After Lu Yi went inside, he stood next to Yun Hao, then looked down at Yun Hao with a meaningful gaze...
Yun Hao's temples twitched a few times. This kid...
So what if he's a little tall? He's already 1.8 meters tall, okay?!
The reality is that Yun Hao, who is 1.8 meters tall, looks rather short standing next to someone who is 1.88 meters tall...
Ye Ran didn't laugh in front of Yun Hao, but Li Qin wasn't the type to be polite.
She burst out laughing. "Yun Hao, you're just jealous. What's wrong with being tall?"
Just as Yun Hao was about to say something, he heard an old man's voice from the side, "Oh my, who is this?!"
"Isn't this Young Master Yun? What brings you here?! And you've brought so many things, you're too kind!"
Following the sound, everyone looked over and saw a dirty, withered, and thin old man come out.
Ye Ran was somewhat surprised. This was Li Qin's grandfather?
He really does look like a beggar...
He was completely different from the clean and tidy Li Qin. He was filthy, and the clothes he was wearing were rummaged through from who-knows-where, hanging in pieces all over his body.
But neither Lu Yi nor Ye Ran looked down on him because of his appearance. Although the old man was dirty, there was one part of him that was cleaner than anyone else's: his eyes!
Most people's eyes will be somewhat cloudy, especially the elderly.
And basically everyone's eyes often flash with all sorts of emotions at times, but this old man couldn't see any of them.
In his eyes, there was only pure, natural white and black, without a trace of impurity...
It was as if he were a newborn baby who knew nothing, just looking at them calmly, but the expression on his face was one of joy.
If this were someone else, Lu Yi and Ye Ran would definitely find it very incongruous and strange.
Yet, none of this seemed out of place to them; it was as if this was simply how he was supposed to be.
The moment they saw him, the two realized he was no ordinary person.
Lu Yi was just wondering why Yun Hao, who is a germaphobe and has a lot of fuss, and often finds many things disagreeable, would have such a good relationship with Li Qin.
He didn't mind that Li Qin's grandfather was a beggar; in fact, he spoke highly of him.
Now they know that Yun Hao is a shrewd guy!
The old man must be extraordinary to be able to make someone as fastidious and meticulous as Yun Hao take notice of him. He is no ordinary person at all!
The old man wasn't angry when he saw two strangers arrive together; instead, he was quite happy. "Qinqin has brought back new friends!"
Hello, hello! I'm Qinqin's grandfather. Please don't be shy since this is your first time visiting! Make yourself at home!
"Okay, thank you for your hospitality. We won't stand on ceremony then." Lu Yi smiled and handed him the things in his hand. "Grandpa, your surname is Mu, right? Then I'll call you Grandpa Mu. You don't mind, do you?"
"It's alright, it's alright, call me whatever you want!" Mu Xingchun said happily.
Yun Hao glanced at Mu Xingchun speechlessly, "I said, old man, didn't I tell you not to pick up trash anymore?"
If you need money, just tell me. How could I not help you?
Look at you, you're filthy! How much do you enjoy picking up trash? Can't you let it go?
Mu Xingchun chuckled, "Oh dear! You know, when you get old, you just have nothing to do..."
"Then I can arrange a job for you. You can do whatever you want, but you don't have to pick up trash anymore!"
"Oh! Why bother? I've loved collecting trash all my life. I'm really into it! You guys don't understand!" Mu Xingchun directly rejected Yun Hao's suggestion.
Then, as if changing the subject, she took the things from Yun Hao's hands and said, "Let me see what good things you brought today."
"Hmph! See? These are all the things you've been eyeing all along, aren't they great!"
"Good, good, good! I see, pig's trotters, peanut candy, oh~ and wine! Young Master Yun, thank you so much!"
However... you wouldn't come here without a reason, young Yun, what brings you here this time?
Yun Hao grinned, "I knew you were smarter than anyone else! I really did come to you because I need something!"
Li Qin then spoke up, "Grandpa, they want to ask you some questions."
"Questions? What questions? Ask me anything I know!" Mu Xingchun's eyes lit up as he looked at the bags of things.
Lu Yi pulled out the puppet he had just used. "This is it! Do you know it?"
Mu Xingchun looked up with a smile, but the moment he saw clearly, his smile froze on his face...
It seems he really does know something...
Lu Yi and the other two exchanged glances. Yun Hao, suppressing his discomfort, put his arm around Lu Yi's shoulder and said, "I'm telling you, judging from your expression, you know something, right?"
"Why don't you tell us? You won't just be wasting your time. From now on, I'll cover all your drinks and snacks, okay?"
Mu Xingchun reacted as if he had been burned, immediately shaking off Yun Hao's hand, "What are you saying?"
What is this? I really have no idea! Isn't this just a toy for kids?
"Ask the kids about toys! I don't know, and it's no use asking me..."
Seeing his evasive manner, the group became even more convinced of their belief that he must have known something, which was why he suddenly changed his attitude!
Lu Yi laughed, "You really didn't know? But your hands are trembling..."
Mu Xingchun froze, his expression completely changing...
