Chapter 125
When Mingqiao called him "uncle", his baby voice was choked with sobs.
He put his chubby little hands around the uncle's neck and leaned his little face against him.
The uncle whom Mingqiao hadn't seen for a long time finally showed up, and Mingqiao couldn't control his excitement.
The uncle holding the baby lowered his eyes and looked at the baby in his arms.
Before he could say anything, the person he had just kicked away got up and rushed towards him again.
"You dare to hit me! I'm not done with you!"
When it comes to scamming people, the uncle is a professional. Facing the man who got beaten up after failing to scam people, the uncle didn't show any mercy to him.
After a while.
The man, who was beaten so badly that he no longer dared to be arrogant, walked away with a bruised face.
After he left, You Qing, who had been watching for a long time, also came forward.
"Jojo."
He called Ming Qiao.
Hearing his brother's voice, Mingqiao opened his eyes and looked down.
"elder brother."
He pressed his small body against the uncle and introduced him to his brother: "This is the uncle I told you about."
You Qing had heard Ming Qiao talk about uncle many times.
So, he greeted the uncle with a calm face.
The uncle looked at You Qing, then at the baby in his arms.
He wanted to return the cub to You Qing.
But he couldn't pay it off at all.
"don't want."
Ming Qiao's two chubby little hands were very strong. He hugged the uncle tightly, his little mouth pouting and his face showing stubbornness.
"I don't want to come down."
Ming Qiao declared his attitude: "I want you to hold me."
Uncle: “…”
Uncle: “You should go back.”
Ming Qiao shook his head and didn't listen at all.
He finally found the uncle, and this time, he would not let go no matter what.
"Ming Qiao, the auction is about to start."
Lingsi also came all the way from the auction entrance.
Lingsi knew the uncle.
Seeing Ming Qiao's attitude, he understood: "Uncle, I have another invitation letter, can you come with me?"
"OK."
Ming Qiao agreed quickly.
After he agreed, his little face looked at the uncle expectantly.
The uncle looked at him in silence.
After a while, under Mingqiao's little eye attack, the uncle finally nodded.
"All right."
His tone was slightly helpless, he had not originally thought of showing up.
"Uncle, where have you been?"
Ming Qiao was held by the uncle and walked towards the auction. His little face was leaning against the uncle and he spoke to him in a soft baby voice.
The uncle said casually: "I just took a walk."
"You left without telling me."
Mingqiao's baby voice sounded resentful. He was very unhappy that the uncle left without notifying him.
He felt that he was very close to the uncle.
"Aren't your family members back? With them by your side, you don't need me."
"I need it!"
Ming Qiao retorted: "I need uncle's."
When the two of them were begging for food together, he had made up his mind -
When all the adults in his family come up, he will take his uncle home as well.
The uncle takes care of him and he also takes care of the uncle.
"You don't need to."
The uncle was still saying goodbye to him: "You have family, friends, a brother, and school to go to. It doesn't matter whether I am here or not."
"I can accompany you to the auction this time, but next time, I won't."
He will leave after the auction is over.
The uncle's words made Mingqiao a little sad.
You Qing couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he frowned and started talking about another topic to divert Ming Qiao's attention.
He was talking about the stuff at the auction.
Ming Qiao was indeed fooled.
The sadness on his little face was replaced by seriousness, and his expression became serious.
"There is a cold iron sword. Let's try shooting this."
The cold iron sword might be able to cut through the chains made of cold iron.
Some of the items at the auction will be revealed in advance.
After all, auctions also need gimmicks.
Ming Qiao is determined to obtain the Cold Iron Sword.
He shook his fat wrist, and the storage ring on his wrist was already full of money.
"My grandfather gave me a lot of money, and my grandmother also gave me some."
Ming Qiao said: "We will definitely be able to take pictures."
Among the whole family, grandpa likes to give pocket money the most, followed by grandma. In comparison, mom gives the least.
Daddy won’t give it to me.
Daddy has no money.
"I brought money too."
Lingsi also patted his storage bag: "If you don't have enough money, I can lend it to you."
"Thanks."
Ming Qiao thanked Lingsi, curled his eyes, and took the opportunity to tell the uncle about his family members who came from heaven.
"Uncle, my father, mother, brother, aunt, grandfather, and grandmother are all at home now."
"Come over too, my house is big enough to accommodate you!"
Mingqiao likes the whole family to live together.
He enthusiastically invited the uncle to live with him.
The uncle shook his head and refused: "I don't like crowds."
What he doesn't like even more is that the whole family lives together.
"Uncle, even if you don't want to live in my house, please don't go too far, okay?"
"Otherwise I'll miss you."
If Shi Ze heard Ming Qiao's sticky words, he would definitely cover his chest to show that he couldn't stand it.
But the uncle was much calmer.
He just said "hmm" and didn't give a clear response.
Ming Qiao stayed close to him and kept talking.
From mother to father, from father to grandfather, and from grandfather to grandmother.
Mingqiao talks a lot.
He chattered incessantly while the uncle held him in his arms, without a trace of impatience in his eyes.
soon.
They entered the auction venue. Lingsi was a low-key local tycoon. As soon as he arrived, he sat in a special private room.
There are not many private rooms like this, and Lingsijin’s room has the best view.
"Lingsi, do we have to pay extra to sit here?"
There were also many people who did not sit in the private rooms. Ming Qiao vaguely felt that they had to pay to sit in the private rooms.
His instinct was right.
Lingsi poured the tea and replied, "Add more."
And a lot more.
Ming Qiao: “…”
Ming Qiao touched the bench and said hesitantly that it would be okay to squeeze in outside.
He hasn’t started filming yet and he’s worried that he doesn’t have enough money.
"Don't worry, I'll pay for the private room."
Lingsi didn't want to squeeze with the crowd outside, so he went into the private room without thinking of asking Mingqiao to pay.
There are tea, snacks, screens and beauty beds in the private room.
There were people serving inside, but Lingsi waved his hand and sent them away.
He was too lazy to allow outsiders to stay in here.
Facing Lingsi, a small local tyrant, the uncle raised his eyes and glanced at him.
"Uncle, have some tea."
Ming Qiao also picked up the kettle and started pouring. He poured a cup for the uncle and a second cup for You Qing.
He drank the last cup himself.
He had talked a lot and his throat was dry now.
After gulping down two cups in a row, Ming Qiao put down the cup comfortably.
He drank it.
"Uncle, if you want anything later, you can tell me."
Ming Qiao finished his water and sat down next to the uncle again. He looked like he was going to give the uncle money.
However, he can spend the money, but he has to wait until he finishes bidding for the Cold Iron Sword.
Hearing him keep talking about the Cold Iron Sword, the uncle raised his eyelids and asked, "What do you want the Cold Iron Sword for?"
"Cut the chain."
Ming Qiao blinked and said without hiding it from the uncle: "Uncle, I want to save a big dragon."
Uncle: “?”
Uncle: "Dragon?"
Are there still dragons in this world today?
Ming Qiao caught the confusion in the uncle's eyes. He held the uncle's fingers with his chubby hands and replied, "It's a dragon."
"He is chained up, and I will cut off his chains."
Although Mingqiao had only been with Dalong for two days, he would appear in her dreams from time to time.
Mingqiao always dreamed of Dalong, naked and covered in wounds with his bones exposed.
He knew that Dalong must be in great pain.
When Mingqiao thought about Dalong's pain, she felt her heart aching as well.
"The cold iron sword might be able to cut the chain."
Ming Qiao explained the reason why he took the photo of the Cold Iron Sword.
After listening to this, the uncle rubbed his little head.
"What does this dragon have to do with you? You've taken so much trouble to save him, will he appreciate your kindness?"
"We have no relationship."
Ming Qiao confessed honestly: "I just don't want him to feel any pain."
"You are just too soft-hearted."
The uncle concluded: "Being soft-hearted is not a good thing."
Sometimes, when you are soft-hearted, disaster will come.
The adult and the junior were talking to each other, and soon the auction officially began.
There were two people fighting with Ming Qiao for the cold iron sword that he wanted to bid for.
As the bidding heated up, Mingqiao's little face was covered with sweat.
His palms were wet.
"Ten thousand coins!"
Ming Qiao raised the price again in a trembling baby voice.
After he added the amount, the person sitting in the private room not far away added another five hundred to his amount.
No matter how much Ming Qiao adds, this guy will always have five hundred more.
This continued for several rounds, and Mingqiao became unhappy.
"He did it on purpose."
Ming Qiao frowned, raised the price to 20,000 coins, and whispered that this person was targeting him.
The uncle looked at his unhappy little face, then raised his eyes to look at the private room.
"You continue filming here, I'll go over and take a look."
The uncle said this and stood up and left.
He went to the private room opposite.
I don’t know what the uncle did when he left, but in any case, Ming Qiao was no longer targeted.
He successfully took the photo of the cold iron sword.
"Uncle, look, I took the picture!"
Ming Qiao had high expectations for the Hantie Sword. Now that he had taken the photo, he was so excited that his little face turned red.
"I can cut the chains now!"
With the cold iron sword, when he finds the dragon, he can cut the chains in one go.
Ming Qiao's excitement caught the eyes of several people, and they all felt warm in their hearts.
You Qing held the excited cub on his lap and let him relax for a while.
"Should we leave? Or should we wait and see."
"Let's take another look."
Mingqiao didn't want to leave yet because he had spent all his pocket money, so he asked Lingsi to borrow some more.
Lingsi gave him some.
As for the rest, Lingsi plans to give it to Yiyiererhua.
Yiyierer was now lying on his legs, staring intently at the auction items on the stage.
They are carefully selecting, trying to choose their favorite auction items.
"Brother, uncle, please pick one."
Mingqiao borrowed money to give to his brother and uncle.
The uncle didn’t spend his.
The auction items were still going on, and Ming Qiao saw a wedding dress.
This wedding dress is very beautiful and it is also a cassock.
Ming Qiao frowned as he watched.
The uncle saw him frowning and asked casually, "Don't you like it?"
"Ugh! I don't like it!"
Ming Qiao looked at the red wedding dress and found it extremely annoying.
"My grandmother is getting married, and I don't want to see the wedding dress."
Although grandma is not really married, Mingqiao doesn't even want to see a fake marriage.
He spoke in a muffled voice and felt extremely useless.
If it weren't for him, grandma wouldn't have used the trick of fake marriage to get the Qin family's treasure house.
"Your grandmother...got married?"
"I told you, my grandma is back."
Although Mingqiao was a little depressed, he still forced himself to talk about his grandmother.
"My grandma is so beautiful. She doesn't look old at all."
Mingqiao described his grandmother's beauty. He felt that no matter how many words of "beautiful" he used, they could not describe his grandmother's true beauty.
"If you see it, you'll know. My grandma is the most beautiful in the world!"
“My wife is beautiful too.”
The uncle was so attracted by Mingqiao's words "grandma is so beautiful" that he couldn't help but reply.
When he took it, Mingqiao's little ears moved immediately.
"Uncle, you have a wife too?"
Uncle: “Yeah.”
The uncle didn't want to talk more: "Children should stay out of adult matters. Just continue talking about your grandmother."
Ming Qiao: “…”
Seeing that he couldn't get any information out of her, Ming Qiao had to continue talking about her grandmother.
"There's nothing more to say. In half a decade, the Qin family will marry my grandmother."
"Qin family."
The uncle murmured these two words, not knowing what he was thinking.
In the second half of the auction, Lingsi bought several items.
As for You Qing and the uncle, they didn't take any pictures.
The auction is over.
Mingqiao held the uncle's legs and refused to let go.
"Uncle, please take me home."
Mingqiao tilted her little face up, her round, dark eyes were wet.
He begged in a baby voice, asking the uncle to take him home.
He wanted to stay with the uncle for a while longer.
With Mingqiao, this little sticky thing, around, the uncle can't leave at all.
If he forced himself to leave, he could have gotten away.
But just as he was about to pry Mingqiao's chubby little hands open, Mingqiao sniffed and looked at him with tears in her eyes.
The uncle didn't even need to guess to know that if he really pried these two little fat hands apart, the little fat kid would probably cry and stick his head out on the spot.
The two, one big and one small, remained in a stalemate.
After a stalemate to the end, unsurprisingly, the kid who looked like he was about to cry won.
The uncle picked him up and pinched his chubby face.
"Why are you so clingy now?"
The little guy didn't cry so much before, but now he is obviously much more pampered than before.
Ming Qiao hummed, not realizing how clingy she was.
They got the Black Iron Sword, and the trip was considered a success.
Now, it's time for them to go back.
Mingqiao was happy to be home.
"Daddy must have cooked, uncle, my daddy's cooking is really delicious!"
"Come on, let's go eat."
Ming Qiao urged, wanting to go back early.
You Qing followed beside him and didn't talk much to the uncle.
And Lingsi is still busy.
He was busy dividing a few items from the auction fairly between the two buds.
It is not an easy task to share things between two buds.
Whoever has more, whoever has less, and whoever feels at a disadvantage must be appeased.
Ming Qiao didn't need to share the things. He sat in the uncle's arms and fed him steamed bread.
"Try it, my father made it."
The steamed bread made by Wu Ye is sweet, and Ming Qiao eats it as a snack.
He raised his little hand and fed the uncle a whole steamed bun.
The steamed bread is not big enough to fill the uncle up.
The return journey is neither far nor short.
Mingqiao felt a little sleepy after being held in the arms.
He was so sleepy that he was groggy and didn't dare to sleep.
"Qiao Qiao, go to sleep if you are tired."
You Qing saw the little guy pinching his own fat legs, so he frowned and held the little guy's hand to stop him from pinching.
"Brother, I'm not sleepy."
Mingqiao shook his head, trying to wake himself up.
He refused to admit that he was sleepy.
The uncle who was holding him saw that he was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes. After a few seconds, he spoke.
"Go to sleep, I won't leave."
After hearing what the uncle said, Ming Qiao fell asleep without hesitation, tilted his head.
His mouth was slightly open as he slept.
The uncle freed one hand and gently closed his slightly open mouth.
It is not a good habit for children to sleep with their mouths open.
Ming Qiao's mouth was shut but he didn't wake up.
He nuzzled into his uncle's neck and went back to sleep.
After about two or three hours, they traveled through the night and finally arrived at Mingqiao's home.
Lingsi stopped a little way in front of Mingqiao's house.
He wants to go home too.
As soon as Lingsi left, only the uncle, Mingqiao and You Qing were left at Mingqiao's door.
The uncle had no intention of going in.
He gently woke the baby in his arms.
"Qiao Qiao, wake up, we're home."
"Uncle, don't wake him up, we can go in directly."
Their door was not locked.
"I'm not going in. You guys can go in."
The uncle had no intention of going in. He continued to call Ming Qiao. After waking Ming Qiao up, he handed Ming Qiao to You Qing while Ming Qiao was still confused.
"You guys go back, we'll call again when we have a chance."
You Qing: “…”
You Qing was about to say that Ming Qiao would cry.
Before he could finish his words, the uncle had already disappeared from the spot.
There was no other choice, You Qing could only push the door.
The door is open.
Ling Yan, who was about to come out, saw two children.
Her eyes immediately fell on Mingqiao's crying little face.
"Qiao Qiao, what's going on?"
Lingyan took the little grandson over and asked: "Who made you cry?"
Ming Qiao had reacted by now. He realized that his uncle was missing again, so he looked up and felt aggrieved and wanted to cry.
"grandmother."
Ming Qiao's eyes were red as she called her grandmother, "Uncle, please send me home, but he disappeared."
Ling Yan: “?”
Lingyan held him and walked around.
She didn't find any uncle.
"Okay, okay, don't cry anymore. Grandma will take you to eat something delicious."
Lingyan couldn't find any uncle, so she could only use food to coax her little grandson.
Mingqiao doesn't want to eat.
He said stubbornly: "I want an uncle!"
Ling Yan was helpless: "Grandma has never seen an uncle like you, so I can't find one for you."
The young man and the young lady were talking to each other, not noticing that the uncle they were looking for had not left yet.
In an inconspicuous shadow, a tall man was standing there, looking at them.
Their conversation reached the man's ears without reservation.
Including Mingqiao calling Lingyan grandma.
The man looked at Lingyan, whose appearance remained the same as before, with a dark and gloomy look in his eyes.
"Good boy Qiao Qiao, why don't you learn from your mother and draw a portrait."
"Grandma will compare the portrait and find someone for you."
Mingqiao reluctantly nodded to her grandmother's suggestion.
He raised his little hand and wiped his tears with the back of his hand.
"Let's go to the study."
He is going to the study to paint.
Lingyan took Mingqiao away and also took You Qing away.
The door closed again and no one came out.
The man who had just been standing in the shadows looked at the empty gate and walked forward.
There are stone lions on both sides of the gate.
The man kept his hand on the lion for a long while before he turned and left.
Ming Qiao in the room didn't know he was at the door and was still drawing him in the study.
"Qiao Qiao, is this the uncle you were talking about?"
Ling Yan looked at the simple sketch and had no idea what the owner of the painting looked like.
Her face showed some embarrassment.
After Ming Qiao finished the painting, he himself found it a little difficult to recognize.
He lowered his head in frustration and twisted his two chubby hands together.
"Jojo is stupid."
He said dejectedly: "Qiao Qiao can't draw."
He couldn't draw what an uncle looked like.
"Our Qiao Qiao is not stupid. Qiao Qiao is just too young, so he can't draw well."
Lingyan couldn't bear to see her little grandson so dejected, so she comforted him: "When our Qiaoqiao grows up, he will definitely be able to paint as well as mother."
With Lingyan's patient comfort and encouragement, Mingqiao recovered a little.
He couldn't draw an uncle, so naturally he couldn't find an uncle.
He could only continue to wait until the uncle came out by himself.
He had a feeling that this time, he would be able to see the uncle again.
"Grandma, are we going to Qin's house?"
"Yeah, I'm getting ready to go."
The longer Ling Yan stayed at the Qin family, the more she felt something was wrong.
The Qin family's wealth does not come from their family property.
She asked Qingheng and Wu Ye to calculate the Qin family's assets.
These businesses were not doing very well, and their profits could never support the Qin family's luxurious daily life.
The Qin family is low-key outside, but very luxurious at home. Their daily diet and living can prove this.
There is a serious disparity between income and expenditure, and the difference has to be made up somewhere.
treasure house.
This is what Lingyan knew, the source of their subsidies.
Ming Qiao said that there was a whole gold mine in the treasure house.
But where did the Qin family get such a rich treasure trove?
Thinking about what happened to the Qin family, Lingyan became more determined to find out everything.
She had to get married in fake marriage half a decade later.
"Qiao Qiao, sleep well at night, and don't come out to look for grandma when you wake up, okay?"
Lingyan carried her little grandson back to the Qin family, and she did not forget to remind her little grandson to sleep well at night.
Ming Qiao nodded obediently.
As the days passed, Mingqiao's cold iron sword finally became stronger than the swords, machetes and other weapons he had bought before.
But whether the chain can be cut off depends on the actual situation.
Ming Qiao put the cold iron sword into the storage ring and carried it with him at all times.
Preparations for the wedding are in full swing.
The joy on Qin Bei's face was visible to the naked eye.
If it weren't for Ming Qiao, this little burden, he probably couldn't wait to sleep with Ling Yan.
He tried many times to get intimate with Lingyan, but was always interrupted by Mingqiao, the little encumbrance.
Now, he was about to marry Lingyan, but he couldn't even touch Lingyan's hand.
Qin Bei couldn't hide his dissatisfaction when looking at Ming Qiao, as Ming Qiao always disturbed the whole thing.
He couldn't do anything to Mingqiao, so he could only angrily ask people to close in on Qingheng.
In his plan, he was going to get rid of Qingheng after getting married.
However, his plans changed.
The day before the wedding, Qingheng was led into the treasury by people arranged by the Qin family.
No, to be honest, he was led to the edge of the cold pond.
The dragon in the cold pond had been warned by the Qin family before he came.
"Eat the food we send you, otherwise your eggs will be lost."
"You haven't seen the egg for a long time. She actually misses you too."
"As long as you are obedient, we will treat her well."
The Qin family's instructions were no different from threats.
Dalong growled, wanting to resist but unable to.
He could only slam the stone wall hard to vent his anger.
Although he hit it again and again, when Qingheng, the "food", came to the edge of the cold pond, he still rolled Qingheng in.
Qingheng disappeared.
Qingheng did not show up that night.
Even though Qingheng would be busy, there was no way he would be absent at a time like this.
Wu Ye searched for it all night.
The next day, when it was bright, the Qin family came to pick up the bride on time.
Wu Ye didn't sleep all night, and his eyes were terribly gloomy.
He looked at Lingyan and asked hoarsely, "Mother, Qingheng is not here, you——"
"I want to get married."
Lingyan definitely doesn't care about her son's disappearance.
She personally put Xitong's clothes on Mingqiao and wiped Mingqiao's red face which was caused by crying because he couldn't find his mother.
"Qin Bei said that he would let me choose a gift from the treasury today, and also the Dragon Herb."
"Wu Ye, Qing Heng's disappearance may be related to the Qin family. He once said that the person he was chasing disappeared in the Qin family's territory."
Lingyan is very sober and rational.
She didn't panic at this time.
