Chapter 2200: Completely relying on him
Translator: 549690339
Yan Songnan was so anxious that he wanted to fight with old Ma. Why was this old man so stubborn?
“Then can you call anyone from their family out? I really have an urgent matter to discuss with them. If they can’t even reconcile ...”
Yan Songnan took out a fifty-Yuan note from his pocket, picked up the pen from the guardhouse, and scribbled the word ‘poisonous shrimp’ on it. “Take this money and knock on the door. Give this to that man. He’ll know when he sees the words on it. When he’s done, this money is yours.”
Old Ma saw that Yan Songnan did not seem to be lying and that he could get 50 yuan just by making a trip. He hesitated for a moment,”alright then, just you wait.”
He took the money and went to you Yi’s house.
He knocked on the door. After a while, the door opened. It was qingsi.
“Grandpa MA, what’s the matter?” qingsi asked.
“Where are your parents?”
“He’s cooking in the kitchen. ”
“I need to talk to them about something.”
“Dad,” qingsi called out to the kitchen,”Grandpa MA wants to talk to you.”
You Yi, who was just about to bring out the dishes, heard this and quickly glanced at nie qiuping. She did not have any special expression; she seemed to be used to it.
You Yi curled his lips. ‘It looks like the days where qingsi can call me’ dad ‘in broad daylight are coming.’
“Then I’ll go out for a while.”
“Okay, go ahead. We’ll be eating soon. Don’t take too long.”
“Alright ...”
You Yi took a towel and wiped his hands as he walked out of the kitchen. “What’s the matter, old Ma?”
He rubbed qingsi’s head.”Qingsi, go eat. Help your mother carry the dishes.”
“Qingsi bounced into the kitchen.
“There’s someone at the door looking for you. He seems to be in a hurry. He wrote something on the money for you. Take a look.” Old Ma handed you Yi a note.
You Yi furrowed his brows.”What does the person looking for me look like? is he a man or a woman?”
“Male,” old Ma said.”His age ... Is a little older than you. He’s shorter than you. He looks quite weak ...”
You Yi flipped over the notes and saw the scribbled words ‘mantis shrimp is poisonous’ on the other side.
He was stunned. Shrimp?
You Yi’s heart skipped a beat. He turned around immediately and saw that nie qiuping and qingsi had already placed the dishes on the table. Nie qiuping picked up an almond and fed it to qingsi.”Here, try this shrimp first ...”
The black hair opened its mouth and was about to put it in its mouth.
You Yi’s entire body shivered in fear. He shot forward like an arrow and slapped nie qiuping’s chopsticks away.
With a clatter, the two chopsticks fell to the ground, and the shrimp rolled on the ground.
You Yi’s sudden action shocked qingsi so much that she stood there in a daze. Nie qiuping quickly returned to her senses. “What’s wrong?”
You Yi felt a lingering fear in his heart.”Don’t eat the prawns yet. There’s something wrong with them. No, don’t eat the vegetables we bought today. I’m going out for a while. I’ll be back soon.”
He hugged both qingsi and nie qiuping in his arms.”I’ll be back immediately.”
You Yi left quickly. Old Ma did not even know what was going on. He was stunned for a moment, then left quickly as well.”Then I’ll be leaving first too.”
After a while, qingsi came back to her senses. She blinked and looked at the prawns on the ground and the appetizing food on the table. She licked the corner of her mouth.”Mom ... What’s wrong with the shrimp?”
Nie qiuping recalled you Yi saying that there was a problem with the prawns. She picked up qingsi and took two steps back, shaking her head.”It’s okay, it’s okay ... It’s okay ... Your uncle is here. It’ll be fine.”
At this moment, nie qiuping had no choice but to admit that she had completely become dependent on you Yi.
