Chapter 283

  When Jiaojiao eats, she doesn’t forget to pick some chopsticks for Miao Miao and sprinkle some sesame seeds. Miao Miao doesn’t like heavy flavors and can’t eat spicy food.

   "This little thing tastes really delicious, Mrs. Liu, you have such a skillful hand." Liu Zhihua praised while eating.

  Aunt Liu moved the plate towards them, and said with a smile: "Today, the frying fire is high, and the outer skin is full of oil and tastes crispy. The sesame seeds and chili noodles are very fragrant, and it is even more fragrant when they are put together."

  The two families haven't seen each other for a long time, and they chatted about trivial things while eating.

   It was not too early to leave Liu's house again, and the whole family went to Lizheng's house again.

  Old Zhong is still playing with knives in the yard. He said that he can not only exercise his body but also resist the cold.

  The children clapped their hands and applauded, staring at Judao curiously, "Wow, Grandpa Zhong is so amazing."

  Liu Zhihua smiled and sat on the stone bench in the yard to watch.

   Erya saw that Grandpa Zhong was able to wield the big knife so beautifully and imposingly, so he picked up a wooden stick and waved it like a cat or a tiger.

  Old Zhong wanted to stop at first, but seeing the excitement of the children, he played again.

   Erya followed the practice with sparkling eyes, thinking that if she could learn such a trick, she would be able to scare the bad guys away in the future.

  She said sweetly: "Grandpa Zhong, you are really good at dancing knives, can you teach me."

  Old Zhong stopped laughing when he heard Yile, walked up to Erya and said with a smile, "This big knife is a bit heavy. If a girl wants to learn it, she will have to suffer a lot."

  Liu Zhihua got up and went to hold Erya, Tong Zhonglao said with a smile: "This girl thinks it's a knife, it's hard for a man to hold such a big knife, how can a girl hold it."

   Erya pouted and opened Mother's hand, and said loudly, "Mother, I really want to learn. Who said that girls are not as strong as boys, and I am also very strong."

   After finishing speaking, Erya walked up to the middle man, held the handle of the knife with both hands and lifted it carefully. Although it was indeed heavy, she could lift it.

   Seeing this, Elder Zhong smiled and said: "You girl, since you want to try it, let me try it for you over there."

   As he spoke, Elder Zhong handed the handle of the knife to Erya.

   Erya's eyes lit up, and she quickly reached out to pick it up, but her arm sank as soon as she got it, and she staggered and almost dropped the knife.

  Meng Jun walked in from the gate, just in time to see this scene.

   "Look, don't let people tell you, how can you play with a head that is not as long as a sword." Liu Zhihua laughed.

   Erya scratched her head, smiled coquettishly and said, "It was slippery just now, I can move it, you big guys get out of the way."

  Everyone smiled and stepped aside.

   Erya rubbed her palms on her clothes, then grasped the handle of the knife and lifted it up vigorously.

  It was successful this time, but my wrist was still trembling a little.

   This big iron knife is really too heavy.

   "Sister is amazing!" Jiaojiao hurriedly smiled and took the lead in applauding.

   Erya was about to speak, but her wrist felt sore, and she fell down with a flick of the knife.

   The accident happened in an instant, Jiaojiao's complexion changed, and she subconsciously raised her hand to exert spiritual power.

   At the same time, a large hand with sharp bones appeared and suddenly caught the knife that was thrown out.

   Erya closed her eyes tightly, her complexion turned pale, obviously frightened.

  Meng Jun's heart was also beating a little fast, and he almost hit the girl's head. He glanced at the pale Erya, pursed his lips and comforted him: "It's okay."

  Hearing Meng Jun's voice, Erya opened her eyes, and what she saw was a magnified handsome face. Erya had never seen a man so close before, and suddenly felt that Meng Junsheng was very good-looking.

   "Oh, I'm so scared to death!" Liu Zhihua turned pale, and hurried over to hug her daughter.

  Jiaojiao and Xiao Li also hurriedly surrounded her.

   Seeing this, Meng Jun took the knife and put it back on the shelf.

  Old Zhong was also taken aback by this scene. Fortunately, he was fine. He apologized unabated in his heart, and said, "It's all my fault. I'm sorry for Zhihua. I shouldn't have let the baby take the knife."

  Liu Zhihua shook her head, and hurriedly said: "I can't blame you, Mr. Zhong was kind, it was my own carelessness."

   Erya came back to her senses, and hurriedly said to Grandpa Zhong: "It's because I didn't hold it steady, but luckily Brother Meng came in time."

   As he spoke, Erya glanced at Meng Jun, smiled and thanked him: "Thank you, Brother Meng."

  Meng Jun nodded, "You're welcome."

   Erya saw him so deserted, opened her mouth, and didn't say anything more.

  Liu Zhihua hurriedly asked the children to call, Jiaojiao and Xiao Li obediently called out: "Brother Meng."

  Meng Jun also nodded with them.

  Old Zhong knew that his grandson was not good at words, so he greeted with a smile: "Hurry up, you all go into the house and sit and talk. It just so happens that my family Meng Jun is back, so it's better to have a lively time with me, an old man."

  …

   When leaving Xiaoshu Village, it was getting late, and Meng Jun sent the Wang family out of the village.

   Hearing that his grandfather said that his family often came to visit, he felt grateful in his heart, and thousands of words could only be expressed as a thank you.

  When the carriage was leaving, Erya raised the curtain by a ghost, and looked back.

  But she didn't want to meet Meng Jun's gaze, her cheeks became hot, she raised her hand and waved it quickly, and said: "Thank you, goodbye."

  Meng Jun had listened to her thank you countless times in the afternoon, and looked at the girl who was clutching the door and window and shrinking her neck, he shook his head helplessly and smiled lightly.

  —

   Meanwhile, Anjo.

  Yingniang looked a little tired, and sat on the wooden bench in the tea shop to rest.

  Yesterday she followed her daughter to the Sun's house, and wanted to bring her back, but she didn't want Liu Er not to come back, and thought she was meddling.

  In a fit of anger, she slapped Liu Er, and then Liu Er ran out. From yesterday afternoon to now, she led people to search for it for a long time, but they couldn't find anyone.

  Yingniang looked at the street, her eyes were moist and sore, she searched everywhere in Ancheng, and she couldn't help feeling a little regretful in her heart, she shouldn't have done it.

  If there is something wrong with Liu'er, she will have no peace in this life, and she doesn't want to live anymore.

  Suddenly a horse ran over, and the man on the horse said to Yingniang, "Yingniang, there is news."

  Yingniang was overjoyed when she heard the words, she hurriedly got up and asked excitedly, "Brother Haonan, where is Liuer?"

   Qian Haonan looked at her haggard appearance, hesitantly pursed his lips and said, "It's in a yard behind your restaurant."

  Yingniang finally let go of her troubled heart, and said excitedly: "Phew, it's fine, this girl is really worrying."

  Then, Yingniang looked at her childhood friend embarrassedly, and said gratefully: "I have brother Lao Haonan today, thanks to your help, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to get here alone."

  Qian Haonan had a smile on his handsome face, he shook his head lightly and said, "You're an old friend, you don't have to be polite."

   "I can't take care of it today, so I'll treat you to dinner another day."

  While talking, Yingniang called for a servant, and then got into the carriage and headed to her restaurant.

   Qian Haonan looked at the carriage, with a distressed look in his eyes, and took the initiative to drive the horse ahead to lead them the way.
