"Alright."
With that, Chen Qingqing walked towards the garden at the back of Lu Family.
She came here often and found a familiar place easily.
In the garden behind Lu Family, there was a vegetable patch. From afar, they could see an old man dressed like a farmer squatting and pulling weeds.
Chen Qingqing couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth into a gentle smile. This was exactly what the Grandpa Lu in his memories looked like.
He was clearly the head of a wealthy family, yet he did all the farming all day.
He remembered asking him once when he was young, he replied, "Little girl, don't look down on the labourers. They can make people tired, but they can also calm their hearts."
She said, "But why meditate?"
"You'll know when you grow up."
Chen Qingqing didn't understand it then, but he still doesn't understand it now.
They could only guess, could it be that Lu Family had too many worries? Causing Grandpa Lu to be unable to calm down?
However, Lu Family could be considered as the simplest family in the capital.
He only had one son, and no competition for the next successor. Since Lu Jingyang was outstanding, he didn't need to worry about the future of Lu Family at all when he handed it over to him.
But why did Grandpa Lu always have a trace of worry on his face?
She could not understand it at all and was too lazy to think about it.
Chen Qingqing walked over and shouted: "Grandpa Lu."
Seeing that it was her, Old Master Lu squinted his eyes into a slit, looking very happy.
"Little girl, you're willing to come back? That brat has gone mad looking for you. "
"Hehe, I've already been back for a few days. Grandpa Lu, today is your birthday, why are you still here?"
Old Master Lu laughed: "Isn't this the begi
ing? The little girl has already been back for a few days, and yet she didn't come to visit my old man.
"Grandpa Lu, I just returned back to school! Since I am unable to keep up with my school records, I naturally have to study hard first. Furthermore, didn't I come to see you? "Come, let's see what present the little girl has brought you."
The old man stood up from the vegetable patch, pulling off the dirty gloves on his hands and placing them in a vegetable basket at the side.
He walked towards her with a smile.
Chen Qingqing took out a piece of yellow paper from his bag and handed it over to him, then said: "Do you like it? If you like, I still have a lot, I'll give you everything. "
Old Master Lu only took a glance before exclaiming, "Ancient banknotes? What period was this? Let me see. "
"There's no need to look. There are a lot of them in my family's warehouse in the Ming Dynasty." She knew that the Grandpa Lu liked to collect things like ancient currency, so she gave it to him as a gift.
Old Master Lu really liked it. She laughed out loud and said, "Girl, you've already given it to me, aren't you afraid that your grandfather will be angry?"
Chen Qingqing didn't understand so, "Why would my grandfather be angry?"
Hearing that, the Old Master Lu suddenly stopped talking and turned silent.
Her eyes were filled with melancholy.
It was as if he had a lot of things buried in his heart, but no place to pour them out.
How could the old man not be angry? He really had a big temper!
However, it wasn't because of this ?
All these years, because of that stubborn old man, he didn't dare to bring his daughter home. He didn't even dare to tell the outside world that he had a daughter.
Someone who knew that his Lu Family had a daughter also thought that his daughter had passed away.
Who could understand such a feeling of grievance?
Chen Qingqing saw that he suddenly stopped talking, and asked curiously: "Grandpa Lu, what's wrong?"
"No problem!" Girl, go play! It's time for me to go back and pack up.
"Alright, Grandpa Lu. You have to dress up a little handsome."
Old Master Lu laughed and said: "Silly Girl, I am old enough to have wrinkles all over my face, how can I be handsome?"
"How could that be? Grandpa Lu still looks young!"
"Your mouth is sweet, go quickly!"
"Alright, I'll see you later Grandpa Lu!"
With that, she flew away, her back looking extremely excited.
She had more important things to do!
Grandpa Lu watched her leaving and a trace of guilt quickly flashed past his eyes.
In the banquet hall, the moment Chen Qingqing appeared, Nalan Yiyi and his group gathered around.
As soon as he walked closer, he said, "Qing Qing, you said that you have something you want to a
ounce to everyone today. What is it?"
"Come, come. Stand closer."
"What?" So mysterious? " Shangguan Qi asked doubtfully.
Mu Yang, Chi Xiaoran, Lu Hefeng and the others also looked at her doubtfully.
Chen Qingqing said: "Later on, that Xiao Yang guy will come over. You guys think of a way to make things difficult for him!"
"Why? Did he offend you? "
"Don't ask so much, I just don't like him."
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk ?" Chen Qingqing, do you intend to repay kindness with enmity? Didn't he save you a few days ago? "
"I told you not to ask, just do as I say, it's done. I'll treat you tonight. Shangri-La will see you!"
"No problem!" The group of people began to heckle.
Only Lu Yaoyao whispered to Lu Hefeng, "Big Brother, why do I feel like that Xiao Yang's back is a little familiar?"
"You've seen it?"
"Well, he was in our classroom."
"Familiar? Do you think so? Or have you seen it before? "
"It seems like I've seen it somewhere before, but I can't remember where."
"I should have met all the people you've met before. I'll pay attention to them later."
The few of them had already discussed their plans, and when Xiao Yang arrived, everyone's gaze landed on him.
The impression everyone had of him was: a person with such an ordinary appearance, shouldn't he be the type that couldn't be found even if he was standing in the crowd?
But once he appeared, he immediately stood out, making it impossible for others to ignore him.
He had a wise and farsighted aura around him.
Many people from the Wealthy Class families started to greet him.
Chen Qingqing shot a glance at everyone and said: "Go!"
Then, a group of people walked towards Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang was politely conversing when he saw Chen Qingqing and a group of people walking towards him.
An inexplicable sense of foreboding arose in his heart.
This damned girl really hadn't given up on him.
Waiting here!
Before he could open his mouth, he heard one of the boys who was dressed shamelessly say, "Yo! Isn't this the only poor person in our school? How can they even qualify to participate in such a high-end banquet? "
That's right!
Xiao Yang was the only poverty-stricken student of the entire Imperial College, but was personally invited to study Imperial College by the principal of the school.
Xiao Yang frowned, and looked at them without saying a word.
Shangguan Qi continued: "Hey, brother! Don't be so thick-ski
ed! I said it like that, but you still can't leave? "
Xiao Yang raised his brows, "What else can I do?"
"Shouldn't you just get out of here?"
"I'm sorry, this is not your house. You don't have the qualifications to tell me to scram."
With a single sentence, Shangguan Qi was stopped in his tracks, unable to say a single word.
Because this place was indeed not his home, and he truly did not have the qualifications to make him f * ck off.
Shangguan Qi flashed gloomily behind Chen Qingqing, threw a "I've tried my best" look at her, and no longer spoke.
It was Mu Yang's turn to appear on stage. He laughed: "Xiao Yang, long time no see."
Xiao Yang nodded at him lightly as a form of greeting.
This was also a person that Xiao Yang knew in the past.
Mu Yang continued: "Didn't I hear that you went abroad to study? Why are you back so soon? "Are you sure you can't stay abroad anymore?"
That was vicious!
Chen Qingqing praised Mu Yang from the bottom of his heart.
However, Xiao Yang turned a deaf ear and did not react at all. He only said: "No matter how nice it is being abroad, it is not my home country.
This sentence successfully pleased those who had spoken to him earlier.
They all agreed, "Young man, you're not bad! Patriotism is a good guy. "
"That's right!" Xiao Yang is truly a fearsome future generations! It's rare to see young people like him with such ambition. "
"Does this young man have a girlfriend? How about I introduce my grandson to you? "
"That's right, my family also has a niece!" As long as you are willing, our clan can immediately arrange for your engagement. "
F * ck me!
He looks so ordinary, and yet he's so popular?
Chen Qingqing and the rest were all dumbstruck. Even though his status was so low, not a single bit of loss was caused to him.
On the contrary, he was being pursued like this.
Chen Qingqing's face turned ugly.
Nalan Yiyi asked her in a low voice: "What should we do next?"
There was no point in continuing to stay. Chen Qingqing waved his hand and said: "Let's go and play."
"Alright!" The group of people left as well.
As Xiao Yang watched their departing figures, the bottom of his heart inexplicably heaved a sigh of relief.
This girl, she was truly a torturous demoness.
But today, she was truly beautiful to the extreme.
His heart began to itch again. What should he do?
After they left, the parents of Nalan Yiyi and the others all came over. They all went to accompany their parents to congratulate the Old Master Lu.
Chen Qingqing took a glass of fruit juice angrily. As if she was drunk, her butt suddenly got slapped.
She was so shocked that she spat out a mouthful of juice. Her throat was throbbing so much that she almost choked on her tears.
The heck!
Who is it?
He dared to do such a disrespectful thing to her? Slap her ass?
She abruptly turned around and met Xiao Yang's profound eyes.
Seeing that it was actually him, her anger flared up.
He suddenly coughed a few times and recovered his composure. He glared at fiercely and said: "Xiao Yang, you actually fucking ?"
Before he could finish, he was interrupted, "How is it? Beautiful lady, you have received your retribution right? "
Chen Qingqing's mind suddenly popped out, the words that she had sworn.
If they dared to take revenge on him, they would choke on water once ?
But she was obviously scared to the point of choking.
This person was truly bold and frivolous. With so many people around, he actually dared to openly pat her butt.
Fortunately, no one saw him.
She angrily said, "Stay away from me! Don't touch me!"
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk ?" How can you turn hostile towards me so quickly! Have you forgotten who your savior is? "
