Chapter 18 The old lady's tenacious resistance

April is the season for picking and making tea, and Meng Qiang and Tian Yawen are very busy.

At noon, the Meng family simply ate some dumplings. As usual, the family would eat some home-grown fruit after the meal, but today when Tian Yawen was going to cut the fruit, he was stopped by Liu Meidi.

"You just sit here and wait, no one can leave."

The old lady hurried into the kitchen and came out soon with a tray. She put the three bowls on the tray into the hands of her son, daughter-in-law, and grandson respectively.

"Drink it quickly, there won't be any left."

The three of them looked at each other in confusion as they looked at the layer of ashes floating on the clear water in the bowl.

"Grandma, are you sure you won't get a stomachache after drinking this?"

"Bah, bah, bah! Don't blame the master for his childish words." Liu Meidi apologized piously to the distant master, and then pushed the bowl in her little grandson's hand to his mouth.

"Can grandma still harm you?! Drink it and you will turn purple, get a wife and have two children in a year!"

Meng Jiarui put down the bowl: "Let's leave it to my eldest brother."

The old lady glared: "What evil have I done? Is there any justice for my grandson's disloyalty and unfilial piety?"

Tian Yawen saw that this was the talisman water boiled by the old lady, and she didn't believe it either: "Mom, Zhicheng was drunk that night, don't listen to his nonsense. It's so good, how could there be a female ghost."

Liu Meidi did not answer her daughter-in-law's words, but just approached Meng Qiang: "Master said that as long as you are sincere, all the bad things in the family will resolve themselves."

The old lady winked at her son and said, "Master, you are still here. Don't forget that Tianzi is the son he gave to you!"

Meng Qiang suddenly became enlightened, and without saying a word, he drank a bowl of talisman water. He wiped away the ash stuck in the corner of his mouth and laughed: "If the master says it can be done, it will be done!"

Liu Meidi nodded happily and turned to her daughter-in-law and grandson: "It's your turn."

Meng Qiang pushed his wife beside him and motioned for her to drink quickly.

Tian Yawen didn't care, but she didn't want to force Jiarui, so she reached out to take the bowl from her youngest son. The old lady had quick eyesight and slapped her daughter-in-law's hand away: "Only when the whole family works together can five blessings come to our door."

Meng Jiarui didn't want to embarrass his mother, so he drank the talisman water with a wrinkled face.

After Tian Yawen also finished drinking, the old lady took out three more golden talismans with red strings and stuffed them into their hands.

"This is an amulet. You don't have to wear it with you if you don't want to. From now on, good luck will replace bad luck and go away!"

The old lady pushed her son and daughter-in-law out with satisfaction: "Go and get busy."

Meng Jiarui followed his parents and was about to go upstairs. Liu Meidi grabbed him and said, "Follow me."

In the Meng family's small courtyard, Liu Meidi supervised her grandson to paste yellow talisman papers all over the entire courtyard wall.

The master said that after affixing the talisman, no monsters or ghosts could come in. Her life was saved.

Meng Jiarui looked at the remaining talismans in the old lady's hand: "How do you attach those?"

"Our room. There is one on the door and four walls..."

"I don't want it." Before the old lady could finish speaking, Meng Jiarui jumped off the ladder and shook his head: "I don't care what you do outside, I don't want to turn my room into Lin Zhengying's studio."

"Who is Lin Zhengying?" Tianzi has many friends and colleagues, and the old lady can't remember clearly.

"I refuse anyway." Meng Jiarui took the ladder to the wall and put it away: "I'm going to make a pot of tea. I don't know if I have something weird in my stomach because of the bowl of stuff I just drank."

Liu Meidi, who was left alone in the yard, looked at her little grandson's figure without looking back, and couldn't help but think about her eldest grandson: Zhicheng, why don't you come back?

Compared with feelings, things like blood relationship are really not important. Tianzi is her biological grandson, but so what?

Tim's son followed his mother, and he was sensible and capable at an early age. He was not at all what a grandson should be, and he was not close to her.

Zhicheng was brought in by Ya Wen. He was a simple-minded person and was called "Meng Adou" by outsiders. He failed to achieve anything but failed. However, he especially loved to act coquettishly with Liu Meidi, and he did so every day for more than 20 years.

At first, Liu Meidi was disgusted, but the kid didn't take it to heart at all. Whenever others said that Meng Zhicheng didn't look like Yawen, the kid would say that he was born to an old lady.

Liu Meidi looked at the talisman in her hand and decided to wait for her eldest grandson to come back.

"Grandma! Grandma!"

Really, everything comes to mind. Seeing her eldest grandson appear at the gate of the courtyard, Liu Meidi's eyes became moist.

"My sweet grandson is back!"

"Grandma, good news! My girlfriend is coming to our house tomorrow!"

Ah? The old lady checked her ears, did she hear it correctly? The eldest grandson has only been out for a few hours, and his girlfriend, who has been unbelievable for a long time, is found? Zhicheng hasn’t drank the talisman water yet, and he hasn’t held the amulet yet...

The wind blew, and the talismans on the wall of the courtyard swayed with the wind. The old lady understood it instantly, and clapped her hands with a smile: "Amitabha, the master has appeared, the master has appeared!"

Meng Zhicheng hugged the old lady's shoulders affectionately, and they entered the house together.

"What does your girlfriend look like?" The old lady hugged her eldest grandson's waist, and the little one seemed to be hanging on Meng Zhicheng's waist.

"Extra, very, very beautiful!" Meng Zhicheng emphasized the word "beautiful" vigorously.

Meng Jiarui came out with tea. He heard what the grandfather and grandson said just now in the yard.

"When did we meet?" Meng Jiarui poured tea.

Meng Zhicheng carefully helped the old lady sit down on the sofa: "I just met her today."

Liu Meidi's smile froze instantly. Meng Jiarui's expression was "I knew it was unreliable".

"Did you tell her that Yunding Villa belongs to you?" Meng Jiarui handed a cup of tea to Liu Meidi.

The old lady also wanted to ask this question.

Meng Jiarui is worried that the other party is not interested in his eldest brother, but Yunding Villa. What the old lady is worried about is...

In fact, Yunding Villa’s surname is not Meng! Without the support of Villa, would Zhicheng’s newly acquired girlfriend be able to fly?

When Tianzi declared that he had no interest in the villa and gave up the inheritance rights to Zhicheng, Liu Meidi did not object: Tianzi was smart and could not die of hunger anyway; unlike Zhicheng, a silly boy, even if he was abducted by human traffickers, he would probably be returned in the end.

Meng Zhicheng responded with an even more embarrassing smile to his brother's embarrassing question.

Meng Jiarui snorted coldly: "We met today and will come to visit tomorrow? She is in a hurry to give Yunding Villa a valuation."

Meng Zhicheng didn't like his brother saying bad things about Zhang Tianyue: "Her family is much richer than ours, okay!"

"A rich girl fell in love with you at first sight? Have you met a liar again?" The tea cup Meng Jiarui was about to hand to his brother stalled. He wanted to throw the tea into his face to wake him up.

"People meet love around the corner, why can't I?"

"The chance of encountering a car accident around the corner is greater!" Meng Jiarui drank the tea, fearing that he would really slap his elder brother in the face.

"I won't argue with you. You can see for yourself when they come tomorrow! If she is really a liar, I will dump her on the spot!"

Meng Zhicheng rarely gets angry, but his current angry look enhances the credibility of his words.

Meng Jiarui softened his tone: "Let's talk about it when we meet with someone tomorrow."

When Meng Zhicheng heard his brother's concession, he grinned again: "You will definitely be scared."

Meng Jiarui glanced at the talisman still held in the old lady's hand: "Is she a female ghost?"

"Tsk, what are you talking about? My girlfriend is so beautiful!"

"In your eyes, which woman is not good-looking?"

Meng Zhicheng sat down next to the old lady and took her arm: "She is just like grandma, with eyes as big as copper bells."

"It turns out to be Sheriff Black Cat." Meng Jiarui nestled on the single sofa nearby.

"She looks good when she smiles, but even better when she has a straight face and is cold."

"Based."

Meng Zhicheng rarely wants to do something to his younger brother. Zhang Tianyue is his sister-in-law, how can he be disrespectful to his sister-in-law!?

"Grandma, look at Tianzi..." Meng Zhicheng wanted to ask Liu Meidi to make the decision, but Liu Meidi was in a daze.

"Grandma! Why are you in a daze? What are you thinking about?"

Liu Meidi clenched the talisman in her hand. Of course she was thinking about when the master's talisman would be able to work on Xiao Chuan! Yunding Villa must be preserved, and her eldest grandson-in-law cannot be lost like this!
