Chen Meng’er looked at Elder Liu and the others and thought that there were only the three of them at home. She turned to her eldest brother, Chen Haoguo, and said, “Please go to the fields and call mom and dad home. Tell them that Grandpa Liu is here.”
“Oh, okay.” Chen Haoguo was still a little stunned when he saw the few unfamiliar faces that had suddenly appeared. It was only after his sister, Chen Meng’er, reminded him that he came to his senses.
The villagers who had come to join in the fun and ask for first-hand information also heard the conversation between Chen Meng’er and Chen Haoguo, the said, “Haoguo, you don’t have to call your parents. Auntie Chen from the village has already gone to call them. She should be on her way back now.”
As he said that, a villager saw Chen Ping and Liu Juan walking over from afar. “Little Ping and Little Juan are back.”
Chen Ping and Liu Juan did not expect Elder Liu to be so quick. He brought his men over in a few days. Chen Ping and Liu Juan jogged all the way back. Although they were villagers, they knew how to treat guests. The guests were already at the door. How could the host not be at home?
When Chen Ping arrived at the door, he did not have time to look at the two cars parked at the door, nor did he have time to observe the unfamiliar faces, he directly went up to Elder Liu and greeted him, “Elder Liu, you’re here. I’m really sorry. We didn’t know that you were here today, so we went to work in the fields.”
“It’s okay. We didn’t inform you.” Elder Liu had already come up to the door to snatch his daughter, so how could he still put on airs. Moreover, this matter was really not the fault of Chen Ping and his wife.
“Come, come. Elder Liu, come to the house quickly. Take a rest and drink some water.” Liu Juan was also busy beckoning Elder Liu and the others into the house.
As for the fat man, the skinny man, and Da Peng, they had already opened the trunk of the car and started moving things out. “Sir, where should we put these things?” The skinny man held a few large boxes in his hands and asked.
“Put them in the house.” Elder Liu waved his hand and said.
“Yes.” The fat man, the skinny man, and Da Peng who received the order held the boxes in their hands and followed Elder Liu’s instructions to move them into the house.
Elder Liu had prepared quite a lot of things. When he came, he had almost filled the trunk of the two cars. At this moment. The three moved back and forth a few times before they finally finished moving the things in the trunk.
Just as the three were moving the things in the trunk to Chen Meng’er’s house, the villagers of Chen family village stared at the trunk without blinking.
If it weren’t for their politeness, they would have gone up and opened all the boxes to see what was inside.
Some villagers began to discuss in whispers, “Chen Ping and his wife said that this old man is not a relative of their family. If he was not a relative of their family, why would he have given them so many things?”
“That’s right, that’s right. Chen Ping and his wife usually look quite heartless. I didn’t expect…”
Chen Ping and Liu Juan didn’t know that they were being gossiped about by outsiders. Liu Juan looked at the extra boxes and boxes in the room and couldn’t help but say to Elder Liu, “Elder Liu, aren’t these things a little too much?”
“Not much, not much. These are all for Meng’er,” Elder Liu said indifferently. He didn’t care about these things at all.
“Elder Liu, you have too many gifts. There’s no need for so many,” Chen Ping said with a frown as he looked at the pile of things in front of him. He would agree to let his daughter, Chen Meng’er, acknowledge Elder Liu as her god-grandfather, it was not because of Elder Liu’s status or the wealth behind him. He just felt that Elder Liu was not bad. And it was also a good thing for someone to dote on his precious daughter. Only then would he agree.
“Oh, Little Ping, these are just a welcome gift from me as a grandfather to Meng’er as a granddaughter. You don’t have to stand on ceremony,” Elder Liu said.
Zhuge Yu, who was standing behind Elder Liu, was standing behind Chen Ping. After Liu Juan and his wife returned, he had been secretly observing the two of them. This was a habit that he had developed over the years. It was also something that he had to pay attention to in his line of work.
After observing them for so long, he was quite satisfied with Chen Ping and Liu Juan. Both of them were simple and honest. They were not manipulative.
