Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chen Meng’er looked at the young man in front of her, but it couldn’t be said that he was young. It was just that compared to Zhuge Yu, who was younger at that time, her emotions were complicated.
Chen Meng’er was quite happy to see her old friend, especially Uncle Zhuge, fat uncle, and skinny uncle, who had taken good care of her in her previous life. But it also reminded Chen Meng’er of everything that had happened in her previous life. Those unhappy things…
“Meng’er, come here. Come to grandfather.” Elder Liu’s voice pulled Chen Meng’er back from her thoughts.
“Yes.” Chen Meng’er replied softly and obediently walked in front of Elder Liu.
Elder Liu reached out and hugged Chen Meng’er’s soft little body tightly in his arms. Then, he said in a rarely heard tone, “My good granddaughter.” Elder Liu continued to massage Chen Meng’er’s little face until Chen Meng’er’s face turned red. Only then did he stop.
This made Chen Meng’er’s father, Chen Ping, and mother, Liu Juan, who were watching from the side, feel a pang of heartache. They wanted to remind Elder Liu several times to show mercy. However, they were guests. Moreover, it was obvious that Elder Liu really liked their daughter, which was why he was like this.
As for Zhuge Yu, and the fat man and the skinny man who had just moved the things in the trunk into the house, they looked at him, who usually didn’t have any mood swings. Even if they encountered a big incident… their employer, who did not have any mood swings, actually had such a side to him. It was a little shocking to them.
Chen Meng’er had not completely pulled herself out of her thoughts. Her reaction was so slow that she allowed Elder Liu to rub her like this.
“Grandpa Liu, be gentle. You’ve rubbed my sister’s face red.” Chen Haoguo saw the red mark on his sister’s face and felt his heart ache. He didn’t care about his fear and reminded him.
Elder Liu was reminded by Chen Haoguo. When he saw the red mark on Chen Meng’er’s face, he immediately put down his hand and looked at Chen Meng’er and said, “Meng’er, did I hurt you? Grandpa didn’t do it on purpose.”
Chen Meng’er was reminded by Elder Liu and felt a little pain on her small face. “Grandpa, it’s okay. It doesn’t hurt.”
Chen Meng’er was telling the truth. This little pain was nothing to her. However, when Elder Liu heard this, it was completely different. He felt that this little granddaughter was really thoughtful. This made his love for Chen Meng’er rise to another level unconsciously.
Actually, there were some rituals for recognizing god-relatives, but most of them were for recognizing godfathers and godmothers. And god-grandfathers were usually in passing. Therefore, Chen Ping and Liu Juan were not very clear about the rituals to recognize him. Elder Liu was even more clueless about these.
“Elder Liu, what do you think about letting Meng’er recognize you as her god-grandfather?” Chen Ping saw that this had been confirmed, and he had not taken Elder Liu’s words to heart before, so… he did not specifically ask the elders in the village.
In fact, Chen Ping did not know how to ask. Initially, because Elder Liu had sent them this matter, the village had been in a heated discussion. If he opened his mouth to ask at this time… who knew how the village would spread the news.
“Oh, I’m not sure either. Aah, what kind of ceremony is this? In the future, Meng’er will be my direct granddaughter.” In fact, Elder Liu did not want any ceremony for acknowledging him, in his heart, since he had treated Chen Meng’er as his granddaughter, then she was his biological granddaughter. No matter how he looked at it, the word ‘biological granddaughter’ was not pleasing to the eye.. “Zhuge Yu, go, bring me the box of things I asked you to prepare.”
