In front of the two elders, Chen Meng’er did not dare make any big movements. She only nodded at Yuwen Jing. However, even though she nodded, she was met with a burst of coughing sounds from the two elders.
After Yuwen Jing left, Elder Qu could not wait to open the box of gifts that Yuwen Jing had given him. As he opened it, he even said, “I want to see what this Yuwen Jing has given me. If he randomly gives me something to fool me, I’ll teach him a good lesson the next time I see him.”
Elder Liu had been acting like he didn’t care since the beginning. Now, he was opening the gift Yuwen Jing gave him.
Chen Meng’er’s eyes twitched as she watched from the side. The performance of these two old men was really unexpected.
“Wine!” Elder Qu opened it and saw that there was a bottle of wine inside. Moreover, it was the same wine that he had been thinking about for a long time but still couldn’t find. His heart was moved and his gaze changed. However, he still said stubbornly, “I was wondering what Yuwen Jing could give me. It turned out to be a lousy bottle of wine.” Elder Qu said it as if he despised it, but, the way he carefully placed the wine back into the box, no matter how one looked at it, it looked like he was treating it as a treasure. “If you ask me, it’s not as good as the wine that Meng’er brews.” However, Elder Qu was speaking the truth. Ever since he drank the wine that Chen Meng’er brewed, he had rarely touched other wines.
No matter how good the wine was, when he drank it, he felt as if something was missing. “Little girl, the wine that I have is almost over. Is your newly brewed wine ready? Right now, if I don’t drink some of the wine that you brewed everyday, I feel like my entire body is uncomfortable.”
“Drunkard.”
Elder Liu and Elder Qu were at loggerheads again. However, Elder Liu was obviously very interested in the wine Chen Meng’er brewed. “Girl, I don’t have any more in stock. You can’t be biased.”
Chen Meng’er didn’t expect the wine she brewed to be so popular. During this period of time, Elder Liu and Elder Qu were not the first people to ask for wine from her.
Zhuge Yu and the others, who usually did not like wine, kept pestering her for more.
And the last time she brewed wine, she brewed a little more just in case. But she did not expect that the wine that she brewed would be so popular that it was all split up in an instant. The next batch of wine was still being brewed. It was not ready yet.
“I still have a little, but it is not much. The newly brewed wine will only be ready in a few days.” Chen Meng’er also brewed in the space, but the quantity was small.
“It’s good that you have it. It’s good that you don’t want us to run out of it.” Elder Qu saw that Chen Meng’er did not answer for a long time and thought that she did not have anymore. Hearing that Chen Meng’er said there was some left, he immediately beamed with joy.
At this time, Elder Liu had also opened the present Yuwen Jing gave him. Looking at it, he raised his eyebrows. He didn’t expect Yuwen Jing to be quite thoughtful. The present he gave was really quite to his liking. Elder Liu thought so in his heart, but he wouldn’t show it on his face. He looked at the book in his hand with a look of disgust and said, “I already have a whole cabinet of medical books.” As he said that, Elder Liu put the book back into the box with a look of disgust.
However, he held the book lightly, without a hint of disdain. Also, Chen Meng’er had seen the cover of the book just now. If she remembered correctly, her grandfather had asked her to help look for that specific book for a long time but still could not find it. Of course, Chen Meng’er would not expose him.
If these two old men wanted to show off, then let them show off.
However, Elder Qu, who had just been scolded by Elder Liu, had to win the argument no matter what. Chen Meng’er did not expose him, but he did not have any scruples. “Look at you, you don’t look like you don’t want it. I think you pretty much treat it like a treasure.”
“You have the nerve to scold me. Look at you. You’re just short of hugging this bottle of wine to sleep at night.” Elder Liu’s sharp tongue did not lose out to Elder Qu in the slightest.
Chen Meng’er saw the situation and knew that the two old men were about to start a new round of bickering. In order to prevent her from being pulled closer to the battle between the two old men, Chen Meng’er had an idea and changed the topic. “Well, Grandpas, you two have a good chat. I’ll go get the wine for you.”
“Okay, okay. Hurry up and go.” When Elder Qu heard that there was wine, he could not be bothered to quarrel with Elder Liu.
Elder Liu, on the other hand, was not fond of wine. However, he was really addicted to the wine that Chen Meng’er brewed. “Hurry up and go. Don’t carry it yourself. Go and ask Fatty and the others to carry it for you.” Elder Liu still felt sorry for his granddaughter.
“Alright, I got it.” Chen Meng’er escaped from this troubled place as if she was running away.

Yuwen Jing came out from the Green Gang with a smile on his face.
Allen looked at his master’s expression and became bolder. “Master, you’ve finally got your hands on Mistress.”
Yuwen Jing was in a good mood today, so he didn’t blame Allen for his big mouth.
“Yuwen Jing, what a coincidence.” Unexpectedly, Yuwen Jing’s good mood didn’t last long. Just as he was about to step out of the gate of the Green Gang, he met the person he didn’t want to see the most, Chen Ming.
“I don’t think it’s a coincidence,” Yuwen Jing put away the smile on his face and said to Chen Ming expressionlessly.
“Yuwen Jing, congratulations. Your wound has healed.” Chen Ming didn’t care about Yuwen Jing’s coldness at all. Before he came, he was still troubled. How long would Yuwen Jing stay in the Green Gang? The moment he thought about how Yuwen Jing was using his injuries as an excuse to stay in the Green Gang and stay with Chen Meng’er day and night, he could not sit still at all. After thinking about it, he could not help but bring his assistant to the Green Gang.
He did not expect that his trip to the Green Gang would give him such a surprise.
“Thank you. However, I have a piece of news to tell you. Maybe after you hear it, you might not necessarily say congratulations.”
