Elder Liu looked at Uncle Liu and the others who were unable to eat. He had been interrupted by Uncle Liu and the others’ sudden visit to study the ancient medical book. His pent-up unhappiness was immediately alleviated.

Elder Liu was in a good mood. He picked up some of Chen Meng’er’s favorite dishes and said, “Little Meng’er, eat more. Look at your small and skinny body. Grandfather’s heart aches when he sees it.”

Chen Meng’er heard Elder Liu’s words and looked down at her small arms and legs. Although they were not considered strong, they were not skinny at all. However, Chen Meng’er still obediently ate up all the dishes Elder Liu picked up. “Yes, Grandpa, I will eat more in the future. But I’m already very full.”

Chen Meng’er’s words successfully stopped Elder Liu from picking up the dishes for her. “Yes, then we’ll eat more next time.”

The few elders across them looked at Elder Liu, Chen Meng’er, and the grandfather-grandchild pair. With such a good relations.h.i.+p, the people who didn’t have much of an appet.i.te put down the chopsticks in their hands.

“Have you all finished eating?” Elder Liu said when he saw that Uncle Liu and the others had just put down the chopsticks in their hands. After Elder Liu finished speaking, he didn’t wait for Uncle Liu and the others to answer. He directly said to Nanny Li, “Nanny Li, we’ve finished eating here. You can get someone to clean up this time.”

“Yes, Sir.” Nanny Li knew that her employer didn’t have the same food as Uncle Liu and the other elders from the side branches, so she looked at Uncle Liu and the others’ barely touched food, but she still acted as if she didn’t see anything, she ordered someone to take away all the dishes on the table.

Uncle Liu and the others looked at the dishes that were taken away. Their faces were red and white. Although they were not in the mood to eat, Elder Liu could not treat them like this, after all, they were guests.

By the way, Uncle Liu and the others had yet to straighten out their ident.i.ty. In Uncle Liu’s eyes, it was already good enough that he did not chase them out, much less treat them as guests.

Uncle Liu and the others did not straighten out their ident.i.ties, but they were stunned by the look in Uncle Liu’s eyes just now. For a moment, they only dared to express their dissatisfaction in their hearts, but they did not dare to say it out loud.

After everything on the dining table was cleaned up, Elder Liu said to Nanny Li, “Nanny Li, help me make some tea. As for Meng’er, give her a cup of milk later.” Elder Liu felt that… a child of Chen Meng’er’s age was not suitable to be drinking tea. Therefore, every time Chen Meng’er came over, Elder Liu would prepare a lot of milk at home.

“Yes, Sir.” Nanny Li answered and walked out.

After Nanny Li left, Elder Liu adjusted the expression on his face, he looked at Uncle Liu and said, “I said, I specifically asked Zhuge to call you. I told you not to come empty-handed. You won’t forget about this, right?”

Elder Liu looked down on the people from the Liu family’s side branch. But since they came to him, he had to protect his precious granddaughter and get some benefits.

Moreover, Elder Liu knew that Chen Meng’er would have to face the people from the Liu family when he regarded her as his heir. And now, he had to pave the way for Chen Meng’er while he still had some tricks.

So, although Elder Liu was unwilling, he still opened his mouth and introduced Uncle Liu and the others to Chen Meng’er.

Uncle Liu and the others didn’t expect Elder Liu to take the initiative to start this topic. Originally, Uncle Liu was still agonizing over how to open his mouth and change the topic back to Chen Meng’er, Elder Liu’s new adopted granddaughter.

From what they could see, Elder Liu’s adopted granddaughter was no joke. Elder Liu really doted on this G.o.d-granddaughter to the core. And now, they wanted to see if Elder Liu was deliberately putting on an act for them, or if it was real.

And after Uncle Liu and the others figured it out, they could go back and reformulate their plans.

“We might have forgotten about this. We all brought gifts,” said Uncle Liu as he took out a brocade box from his pocket. Then, he revealed a smile that he thought was very amiable. He looked at Chen Meng’er and said, “You’re called Meng’er, right? I’m your grandfather. Here, take this. This is your grandfather’s greeting gift to you.”

Uncle Liu’s smile, which he thought was amiable, made Chen Meng’er feel very uncomfortable. If it weren’t for the fact that Chen Meng’er still had her manners, she would definitely tell Uncle Liu to stop smiling. His smile… was really not very good-looking.

After Chen Meng’er heard Uncle Liu’s words, she did not go forward. Instead, she turned her head and looked at Elder Liu with an inquisitive gaze. She waited for Elder Liu’s instructions. Chen Meng’er was not a real child. When she saw that there was a gift to take, she would not be so excited that she would recklessly rush forward.

When Uncle Liu saw Chen Meng’er’s reaction, he was quite surprised. Speaking of which, just now, when Chen Meng’er was eating, Uncle Liu had paid attention to observe Chen Meng’er. At that time, when he saw what Chen Meng’er was eating, he felt that this child did not look like what they had heard from the news, she had come from the countryside.

From Uncle Liu’s point of view, Chen Meng’er’s eating habits were better than those of the young masters and young ladies in their family. She had a sense of elegance and n.o.bility.

This thought only flashed through Uncle Liu’s mind, and he did not delve into it. But now, when he saw Chen Meng’er turn her head to ask for Elder Liu’s opinion, he was surprised but also more enlightened.

This Chen Meng’er didn’t look like a three-year-old child who came from the countryside. And he also somewhat understood why Elder Liu would make an exception to recognize this three-year-old Chen Meng’er as his G.o.d-granddaughter.

No matter how Uncle Chen and the others were feeling right now. In any case, Elder Liu was in a very good mood. Although Elder Liu wasn’t worried that Chen Meng’er would pounce over when she saw the gift, when Chen Meng’er used her eyes to ask for his opinion, his mood couldn’t help but start to bubble.

“Since it’s a gift from your grandfather, you don’t have to stand on ceremony. Take it.” After Elder Liu said that he turned to look at Elder Liu, he continued to say to Chen Meng’er, “Meng’er, this is your grandfather. Your grandfather used to be a high-ranking official in the Capital. Although he has retired now, he still has connections. So, if you encounter anything that can’t be solved in the future, you can look for your grandfather to help you.” After Elder Liu said that to Chen Meng’er, then he said to Uncle Liu, “Am I right?”

“Yes, Meng’er, if you have any problems, feel free to look for your grandfather.” In terms of scheming, Uncle Liu had never been Elder Liu’s match. And previously, Elder Liu had not hesitated to pay attention to them.

Therefore, Uncle Liu was instead checkmated by Elder Liu, so he could only reply with a stiff smile.
