Chapter 166: Chapter 166(1)

The door of the small courtyard creaked open from the outside. Seeing his son-in-law step out to speak, Grandpa Liu, who was so angry that he wanted to throw a tantrum, was distracted by the sound of the door opening. The battle paused for a moment.

“Meng’er is back.” where Liu Juan stood, she was the first to see Chen Meng’er standing at the door. As Liu Juan spoke, she walked toward the door. She still remembered that a few days ago, her eldest brother Liu Neng tried to push her daughter. If her eldest son wasn’t quick-witted and stopped her, who knew what would have happened in the end?

“Mom, I’m back. Did you miss me?” Chen Meng’er ignored the gazes in the yard and smiled at Liu Juan who was walking toward her, acting coquettishly.

“Why wouldn’t I miss you? I missed you so much.” Liu Juan hugged Chen Meng’er and said.

“Mom, if you want to hug our sister, you should change places. Don’t stop us,” Chen Haoxuan said as he walked behind Chen Meng’er with his things in his hands.

“Aiyo, look at me. I forgot that you two brothers went to the city with Meng’er.” As Liu Juan said that, she saw Da Peng behind the brothers. They quickly stood up, he said, “Look at me. I was talking to Meng’er, but I didn’t see Da Peng. I’m really sorry.”

Chen Ping, who was still standing, heard his wife talking about Da Peng and walked over. He took the things from Da Peng and said, “Da Peng, come in and have a seat. Drink some water.” After Chen Ping said that, he remembered… his father-in-law’s family was still in their courtyard. An awkward expression flashed across his face. “Da Peng, I’m sorry to have made a fool of you. Something happened at home today.”

“It’s nothing.” Da Peng took a step forward and walked into the courtyard.

Grandpa Liu and the others saw the tall and strong Da Peng walk in. Their arrogance had disappeared. They all looked at Da Peng with crafty eyes. However, they didn’t dare to act rashly anymore. On the other hand, Liu Neng’s wife, Lu Chengying, looked at the bags that were handed over from Da Peng to Chen Ping with sparkling eyes.

Lu Chengying saw the corner of the bag. From the corner of the clothes that was exposed, she recognized that it was the one that she had taken a fancy to in the department store in the city a few days ago. The reason why Lu Chengying would recognize this dress from the corner of the dress was because Lu Chengying liked that dress very much. She had gone to look at it several times. In the end, she finally made up her mind to have the salesperson take it down and let her try it on.

After trying it on, she liked it even more. But when she asked the price, she immediately became listless. She really couldn’t bear to part with the money.

Lu Chengying thought that this little sister-in-law’s family was really lucky this time. Why didn’t that person take a fancy to her family’s child? Why didn’t he let their child acknowledge that person as his god-grandfather? Otherwise… now, everything belonging to her little sister-in-law’s family belonged to her family…

The more Lu Chengying thought about it, the more jealous she felt in his heart. The envy, jealousy, and hatred in his eyes also became more and more intense.

“Sorry for the trouble.” For the first time, Da Peng did not reject Chen Ping’s suggestion to sit down and drink some water. Previously, every time Da Peng came to pick Chen Meng’er up, Chen Ping and Liu Juan would ask Da Peng to sit in the house for a while and drink some water, they were all rejected by him. Therefore, for a moment, Chen Ping thought that he had misheard Da Peng’s answer. However, fortunately, his brain worked quickly, and a surprised expression flashed across his face. Then, he smiled and went in to pour water for Da Peng.

The reason why Da Peng was acting so strangely today was because before he sent Chen Meng’er and the others back, Elder Liu had specially pulled him over and instructed him not to leave in a hurry after he sent Chen Meng’er and the others home today, he had to make sure that Chen Meng’er’s grandfather’s family did not come to cause trouble for Chen Meng’er’s family before he could leave..
