Time Travel: Conditional Wealth
Chapter 204: Unhappy Retribution
"Little liar, do you think we should go eat?"
Lu Jinan's smiling voice sounded leisurely in He Xi's ears, low and magnetic, making her scalp numb.
"You mean we're going to eat over there?" He Xi shuddered and sat up, looking uncertain, "Will we not be kicked out?"
"That depends on who it is." Lu Jinan stood up slowly, and his peach blossom eyes understood and took out two bottles of good wine from his bag: "We should also visit grandpa's old comrade-in-arms. It's not the Lu family's style to be rude."
"Are you going?" Lu Jinan glanced at He Zhien and said sharply, "You'd better go. It would be great if you could bring your comrades to visit grandpa and grandma and have a chance to stay for dinner."
Seeing this, He Zhien held her breath and replied to him: "I would have done the same thing even if you didn't tell me. He Xi and He Fei should not go, so that they don't have to help with cooking when they get there."
They chose the right time to visit the two elders, definitely before making dinner, so that they could naturally bring a few young men with them to dinner.
The Lu family was Lu Yunshen, Lu Huaizhi, and Lu Jinan, the Xiao family was Xiao Yi and Xiao Yan, and the He family was He Zhien. A group of six people, holding gifts in their hands, appeared on the way to He Xi's grandfather's house.
Magnetic and confident voices were heard along the widest country road, causing those who had finished their work and were cooking to stop what they were doing and look out to see what was going on.
You won't know until you see it, and you'll be deeply attracted to it. Not to mention their tall and straight figures, they are all very handsome, with the toughness of a soldier and the elegance of a gentleman.
Arriving at the door of the He family's elders, he said, "Grandpa and grandma, we are sorry to bother you. This is a small token of our appreciation."
As a police officer on campus, Lu Huaizhi is best at this kind of official courtesy, but his beautiful peach blossom eyes always discount his sincerity, and his elegant temperament makes him seem like a passer-by who is reluctant to leave.
What she heard was a low, hooked voice. Grandma He rushed to open the door. She was stunned the moment the door opened. She didn't know the person who was calling the door. At this time, He Zhien squeezed forward from behind and said, "Grandma, I'm back to visit my relatives. They are my comrades-in-arms. They all came to see you."
"Oh, my grandson is back." Grandma He held onto He Zhien's hand as if she had found her backbone and was unwilling to let go. "I miss you so much. You don't know how much has happened in our family when you're not home."
He Zhien introduced the identities of the visitors one by one. Of course, Lu Jinan and Xiao Yan needed no introduction, as they all knew them and were very angry with them.
Grandpa Lu was grinning from ear to ear. The other two sons of the Lu family were also here. Would the girls in the family be "marketable" then? It would be inevitable for them to get their benefits if they climbed up the social ladder. No matter who they were, they were more considerate than He Xi, the troublemaker.
Whether it's a soldier or a noble young master, as long as you can get one, why worry about the others? There's another job tonight.
The time was right for the evening, so Grandma Lu said a few words and started to prepare dinner. Since young men eat a lot, she gritted her teeth and decided to have rice tonight.
We can't let them look down on us. What we pay now may be paid back many times over in the future.
He Zhien stood up first: "Grandma, let me help you. Let's eat rice, right?" She rolled up her sleeves and started to wash the rice.
He Zhien was determined to bankrupt the couple, so he was naturally ruthless. He scooped out the white rice again and again. Seeing that the rice she had saved for a year was wasted by him, Grandma He's eyes turned black and she almost fell down.
He Zhien was quick to help her, and with a nervous yet innocent look, she cared about Grandma He: "Grandma, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Grandma He looked at the sky outside which was getting darker and darker, gritted her teeth and tried to hold on to the discomfort in her body, and said, "It's okay, I'm just excited to see you guys. Wait for me, I'll cook."
"I'll help you. I also learned how to cook in the army."
Grandma He’s trembling hands couldn’t hold anything, and he still had to cook. Was there enough oil at home for him to do so?
But when she turned around and saw the sincere expression on He Zhien's face, it was like a feather gently brushing against Grandma He's heart. She felt that she must have been wrong. How could he have the intention to play tricks on them? In any case, she was there to help.
Grandma He nodded slightly after coming to terms with it: "Okay, I'll help you."
As it got darker outside, the grown men couldn't sit still outside anymore and moved into the house to avoid the mosquitoes. After talking for so long, they finally got to the part that Grandpa He was most concerned about.
He smiled and said, "Do Yun Shen and Huai Zhi have a partner? What about Xiao Yi?"
Lu Huaizhi was considered the most eloquent person by everyone, and few people could outspeak him. He raised his eyebrows, with a smile in his peach blossom eyes: "No, no time, Grandpa, are you going to match us up?"
After saying that, he looked around the house deliberately. It was hard to tell his true thoughts. If you said he was serious, his eyes would be frivolous. If you said he was not serious, you couldn't tell that he was rejecting him.
Grandpa He sighed subconsciously: "You don't know how noisy the girls in my family are, but don't worry, the girls in my family are all very beautiful."
Lu Huaizhi hummed twice without commenting, and then asked: "Are they all as beautiful as He Xi? He Fei is also fine."
Grandpa He couldn't help rolling his eyes. If it were the two sisters, he would have been pissed off. He coughed lightly and said, "Not all of them, but they are all the excellent bloodline of the He family."
Lu Huaizhi raised his eyebrows slightly: "No, I'm afraid she will feel inferior when her brother and sister-in-law meet in the future."
Lu Jinan couldn't help laughing. He said, "He is fooling you. The best genes in his family are in He Xi and He Fei. The others are all ugly and have dirty minds."
Others don't know much about the He family, but they know Lu Jinan's character. He never gossips about other people's family affairs. Since he said it today, it means they have problems.
Grandpa He's expression froze for a moment, thinking about how to make up for it, and then he heard He Zhien's full-bodied voice: "It's time to eat."
The meal was really rich, with white rice that was rarely seen during festivals, and scrambled eggs and scrambled meat. The eggs were for hatching the cubs, and the bacon was for festivals. Is the golden color on the plate oil?
Grandpa He looked at him for a long while, then coughed dryly, pretending to be calm: "Why are you still standing there? Wash your hands and eat."
During the meal, they automatically blocked out the conversations of the two elders and focused on eating. The soup was gone, and Lu Yunshen said frankly, "Grandma, I'm not full."
Xiao Yi: "Me too."
He Zhien: “Me too.”
Grandma He: "..."
Grandpa He: “…”
The two elders were stunned and couldn't believe it. The plates had been cleaned but they were still not full?
Grandpa He gave Grandma He a look, and Grandma He resigned herself to cooking noodles and beating a few eggs as well.
It wasn’t a wasted meal, as all the dishes were cleared away when I left.
The old lady saw that there was no food left in the house and she couldn't even touch the chicken. She couldn't bear it any longer and both of them passed out.
As the old man was seeing people off, he was still bragging: "Come and play with me tomorrow when you have time. I just like the hustle and bustle."
