Chapter 456 All Are Tricksters
"This weekend won't work," Grandma Qin suddenly said.
Dafu and Caicai looked over, puzzled.
Grandma Qin explained, "The son of the Luo family is getting married this weekend, so we have to attend the banquet."
"Banquet?" Zhouzhou's eyes lit up as she turned to Qin Er. "Brother Dafu, let's go to the banquet first and eat our gift money back!"
She was the main force in eating to get her money's worth!@@@@
Zhouzhou proudly patted her little belly. She alone was worth ten!
She was indispensable!
Qin Er nodded, "Alright."
They could save on meal expenses.
Saving money was akin to earning money, Qin Er calculated on his fingers.
Hearing the children's innocent words, the adults couldn't help but laugh.
Silly kids, how could they possibly eat that much?
But no one revealed the truth; otherwise, the two little misers might bring sacks to take food home and ensure they got their money's worth.
Ye Lingfeng asked curiously, "Who is this Mr. Luo?"
"He's from our neighborhood."
Ye Lingfeng nodded but didn't recognize him. Though he lived here, he was only close to the Qin family.
Speaking of this, Xiao Lan frowned. "Is it Luo Jinhui? Isn't he a playboy? Who's the unlucky girl?"
She remembered the Luo family had only one son. He was nothing special, just a philanderer, changing girlfriends every month, a complete wastrel.
Marrying such a man, one could easily imagine the life after the wedding. One shouldn't expect a philanderer to be bound by a marriage certificate.
Grandma Qin evidently didn't like Luo Jinhui either, but since they lived close, they couldn't refuse the invitation. "It's him. It seems the woman is pregnant, so they might be trying to give the child a home."
Xiao Lan curled her lips in disdain, recalling Luo Jinhui's behavior.
Beautiful women were plentiful in the entertainment industry, where Luo Jinhui also liked to mingle.
With plenty of money, many actresses gravitated towards him, and Xiao Lan knew many had had abortions for him.
Would such a man settle down for a child? It seemed unlikely, and she wondered what the real story was.
Qin Yan, knowing a bit more, said, "It's Luo Jinhui's mother who wants her son to marry the girl, saying he's old enough to settle down, and she wants a grandchild."
A grandchild? So that was the key?
If only Zhouzhou had a kindergarten diploma, she wouldn't be so easily fooled.
Sensing something amiss, Zhouzhou scratched her head, puzzled, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing," Grandpa Qin cleared his throat, putting down his chopsticks. "It's true, Zhouzhou. Eat well and grow quickly."
"Yes!" Zhouzhou nodded vigorously, waving her little fists with determination. "I'll keep it up!"
Seeing the soft little girl, everyone's gaze shifted to Grandpa Qin.
So, everyone bullied Zhouzhou for being young.
Grandpa Qin's stern gaze made them instinctively look away, unable to meet his eyes, and he sat with unshaken composure.
Indeed, to achieve great things, one must use any means.
However, when faced with his granddaughter's trusting eyes, Grandpa Qin felt a flicker of guilt.
Seeing this, Grandma Qin chuckled.
As she said, A'Lie was most like him, quiet but full of tricks.
Hmph.
She said nothing more, watching her granddaughter cheerfully hold Qin Ren's hand and bounce upstairs.
Yes, this was right. How could she not eat meat?
She looked at the surrounding grandsons with odd expressions and warned, "Don't tell Zhouzhou the truth. If anyone does, I won't go easy on them."
Her narrowed eyes made the boys shudder and quickly shake their heads.
Grandma was fierce!
Her spankings hurt!
Qin Nan and Qin Bei, feeling sympathetic, rubbed their bottoms and shook their heads vigorously.
No way, they wouldn't say a word.
Satisfied, Grandma Qin smiled.
Upstairs, Zhouzhou, oblivious to being tricked, sat eagerly, watching Qin Ren. "Big brother, what are we learning today?"
Qin Ren, well-prepared, took a book from the shelf labeled "First Grade."
Zhouzhou recognized the words and looked at him with admiration.
Was this a textbook only primary school students had?
It was indeed more advanced than their kindergarten books!
