"Hey, Lao Meng is here. Lao Meng doesn't have time for you to play chess today! We have enough people."
All the old men in this area knew that Meng Dahai had made a bad move and were afraid to play chess with him.
"No, no. I'm not going down today."
Old Master Meng waved his hand casually and stood beside them. He was only going to watch the game today.
By the way, I just want to show off the gift given by his granddaughter-in-law.
Mr. Meng kept playing with his beads, which finally caught Mr. Zhang's attention.
Just one glance, and his eyes lit up as he was a collector of antiques!
"Lao Meng, where did you get your skewers? Let me see, let me see."
Seeing that someone finally noticed him, Old Man Meng raised his voice slightly:
"Oh! Are you talking about this big Vajra Bodhi? This is something my granddaughter-in-law found for me. I said it was useless to play with it.
My granddaughter-in-law said it has many benefits, saying that the nerves in the hands connect to the internal organs and brain nerves, so it's good for the body. I don't want it, so I have to give it to me."
The old men around curled their lips. They had long been accustomed to Old Meng's arrogant attitude. Whenever his grandson's wife gave him something good, he would let everyone know.
Oh! It's no wonder he's showing off. After all, he has a wonderful grandson's wife! Not only is she beautiful, but she also brought two new children to the Meng family, twins, and was praised in the newspapers and by the country. She also often gives Meng a lot of rare things.
This is incomparable, incomparable!
"Old Meng, let me see."
Mr. Zhang was so anxious that he squinted his eyes and almost grabbed it.
"Here, here, here. See if it's much more beautiful and domineering than that walnut of yours!"
Mr. Meng handed the string to him, and the old men watching the chess game around stretched their heads to look.
"Hey, don't tell me, although I don't understand this thing, but Lao Meng's string looks good."
"Yes, it's really beautiful. I want one too."
When Mr. Meng heard this, he was very unhappy and quickly took the skewers over, saying, "Don't let him snatch them away. This is his new treasure."
"Old Meng, I haven't looked carefully yet!"
Old Zhang stamped his feet anxiously. Old Man Meng had already walked away happily.
When he arrived at the door of his house humming a little opera, he saw two people he didn't want to see.
"Grandpa, I came to see you."
Although Meng Hao was extremely unhappy, he still listened to his father's words. His father said that the Liu family had fallen, and only the Meng family could help them.
"grandfather."
Shen Jiayao held her waist with one hand and covered her belly with the other, as if she was afraid that others would not know that she was pregnant.
The old man looked at her with disdain. Is she pregnant?
Her belly is so flat, and it's not as big as Qingli's that needs to be supported. Why should I support it? I'm really afraid that the old man can't see it.
Ye Qiu and Shen Qingli were sitting in the yard basking in the sun and eating melon seeds when they heard someone knocking on the door.
Just, lazy! Don't want to move! Don't open it!
Hearing that the old man was being harassed by them, the two of them could no longer sit still.
Ye Qiu walked over, opened the door and helped the old man in.
Just as she was about to close the door, Meng Hao looked at her with a sinister look: "Aunt, why are you closing the door when Grandpa hasn't said anything yet?"
Ye Qiu laughed angrily!
Hey, I have such a bad temper! I used to be the mainstay of the art troupe. Even if I only know a few fancy moves, it's enough to knock you down.
The old man saw Ye Qiu rolling up her sleeves. He knew his daughter-in-law's temper very well and rebuked Meng Hao:
"We broke off the relationship a long time ago. Don't come here anymore."
He slammed the door shut. Meng Hao shouted from outside, "Grandpa, I'm getting married next Wednesday. The banquet will be held at the Ministry of Culture's staff quarters. You all must come!"
After he finished speaking, he didn't hear the old man's response, and angrily pulled Shen Jiayao away. Anyway, he listened to his father, and the message had been delivered. It was up to them to go or not!
After walking a distance, Shen Jiayao looked at him dissatisfiedly and said:
"You shouldn't be so impulsive and disrespectful to your aunt. Don't you understand? Without grandma, your aunt is the mistress of the old house."
"I don't care about her. It doesn't matter. It's not like I can't survive if I leave the Meng family." He walked forward on his own.
Shen Qingli stood there, feeling angry and helpless.
You are really nothing without the Meng family!
This idiot!
The marriage certificate has been stamped, it’s too late to regret!
"Grandpa, why did you come back so early today after taking a walk?" Shen Qingli didn't take the farce seriously at all.
"It's that old man Zhang. He's taken a fancy to my skewers! I think if I don't leave now, he'll force me to buy them."
Old Master Meng also moved a small stool and sat there, cracking melon seeds leisurely.
There was no sign that what happened just now had any effect on him. The old man had now completely figured things out.
The third son's family is hopeless! They are such a nuisance, out of sight, out of mind. Just pretend you never gave birth to this son!
It was precisely because he had figured it out that he seemed indifferent to Meng Hao's arrival.
"That necklace is indeed in great condition. If someone wants to offer a price, don't sell it. It has great potential for appreciation in value in the future."
Shen Qingli explained.
"No, no, it's a gift you gave to grandpa. What's the point of selling it? I definitely won't sell it. I like it very much. Don't worry!"
The old man waved his hand.
"Why do these melon seeds taste different than usual? They're delicious! Fragrant!"
He hadn't noticed it just now, but now he realized that today's melon seeds were not as bland as usual.
"I bought some sunflower seeds and fried them myself before. This one has caramel and walnut flavor."
Actually, she took it out from the space, she didn't dare to tell you~
"It's delicious. My granddaughter-in-law is amazing. She can do everything!" Shen Qingli smiled happily because of the old man's praise.
"Yaozu, where did the blood come from on your hands? Ah! Why did you kill the chicken that laid the eggs?"
Gao Caixia's scream came from next door.
"What are you shouting about? That chicken is glaring at me, and I'm going to kill it!" The child's voice was creepy.
The old man frowned. Shen Qingli and Ye Qiu exchanged a glance, each recalling their discussion of the "super-strong child" that day.
Ye Qiu rubbed the goose bumps on his arms and whispered to Shen Qingli:
"Don't be alone next time. Ask your family to go for a walk with you. Stay away from that kid if you see him."
Shen Qingli nodded.
The old man wondered in his heart, "It's not that serious. It's just a child."
