Heavenly Blessed Baby: Fleeing Famine, Busy to Prosper!-Chapter 255: This Girl Is Delightful

"Slow down, slow down!"

As soon as Qi Quanjin saw his little daughter running wildly out, he hurriedly rushed forward to pick her up.

But the little girl twisted her body and dodged.

"Uncle Liu! Uncle Liu!"

Qi Manman shouted as she ran.

Suddenly being called out, Liu Qinghe was a bit taken aback, but he responded, "Manbao, what’s the matter? Slow down, don’t rush."

Hearing this, Qi Manman finally slowed down a bit, but still jogged over to Liu Qinghe.

The ignored Qi Quanjin: ...

Qi Manman reached Liu Qinghe and, without even bothering to wipe the sweat off her face, bowed to him respectfully.

This scene startled everyone.

What’s going on? Why is this child bowing?

Qi Manman straightened up and said, "Uncle Liu, it was wrong of me this morning. I shouldn’t have spoken to you like that. Uncle Liu, I apologize!"

After speaking, the little girl bowed again.

Liu Qinghe didn’t quite get it at first, but after thinking for a moment, he understood what the girl was talking about and couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Letting go of his mother’s arm, Liu Qinghe picked up Qi Manman and said with a laugh, "Manbao, you’re such a good child. I accept your apology!"

"Really?"

Qi Manman looked at Liu Qinghe in surprise.

Liu Qinghe nodded, "Really, Uncle Liu wouldn’t lie to a child."

"Uncle Liu, you’re so nice!"

Qi Manman giggled and gave a big compliment.

At this moment, Mrs. Liu Sr. walked over with a warm smile on her face, "So this is Manbao? I’ve heard your Uncle Liu say you’re a particularly well-behaved and sensible child, and today I see it’s true."

Qi Manman tilted her head and looked at Mrs. Liu Sr., blinking her eyes.

Everyone thought she didn’t know how to greet the elderly lady, but to their surprise, the little girl grinned and sweetly said, "Hello, Grandma Liu!"

"Oh my, what a lovely little girl! Good girl, good girl!"

Mrs. Liu Sr. was actually fond of her grandson, but she didn’t dislike little girls either.

Seeing this fair and polite little girl, she naturally felt affectionate towards her.

"Grandma Liu, come in for some tea, my grandma is at home! Let me call her to come and chat with you!"

Saying this, Qi Manman twisted her little body, trying to get Liu Qinghe to put her down.

Liu Qinghe put the child down, and once he was sure she was steady on her feet, he completely let go.

Then everyone watched as the little girl ran energetically towards the house, shouting for her grandma as she went.

"This girl has been spoiled by my family. Uncle, Aunt, please don’t mind."

Although Qi Quanjin was very proud of having such a little daughter, he still felt the need to be polite.

Mrs. Liu Sr. waved her hand, "Why mind? I find this little girl Manbao charming and endearing."

"Come inside, it’s quite hot out here."

Qi Quanjin smiled at the praise from the elderly lady and invited everyone into the main room.

As soon as they entered the main room, the heat seemed to diminish significantly.

Everyone felt much more comfortable.

Cheng Huihui had been observing since she entered the Qi Family’s yard.

She wasn’t too concerned with the wild little girl who ran out; rather, she wanted to understand the situation of this Qi Family.

After all, this is the home of the village chief of Yongping Village, and there will be interactions in the future.

Once inside the main room, Cheng Huihui thought the family seemed a bit simple.

The furnishings inside were not as grand as the yard outside.

However, she didn’t show it and simply sat down with her family.

Mrs. Qi also came over at this time, followed by two daughters-in-law, each carrying a tray with large bowls of cold tea on top.

"Old sister, welcome!"

Mrs. Qi had a very good impression of the Liu Family now, for no other reason than because her precious granddaughter mentioned the young aunt as being from the Liu Family.

As she greeted, Mrs. Qi sized up the people from the Liu Family who came today.

Among those who came, all the women were dressed as wives, with only one young girl who seemed to be around sixteen or seventeen, and she instantly formed a conclusion.

This must be the young girl from the Liu Family, the young aunt Manbao mentioned.

This was also the first time Mrs. Liu Sr. met Mrs. Qi.

She initially thought it was just an ordinary rural elderly lady, but when she saw Mrs. Qi’s clothes without patches, her neatly combed hair, and the two silver hairpins, she realized she was wrong.

This elderly lady, while not quite like the old ladies from big city families, could definitely be considered a well-off matron even in the city.

"Sister, sorry to trouble you."

Mrs. Liu Sr. stood up and shook hands with Mrs. Qi before sitting down again.

With two elderly ladies together, there was plenty to talk about, making Mr. Liu Sr. seem a bit superfluous.

Fortunately, Qi Quanjin already had someone call Qi Zheng to come back. Just after sipping some cold tea, voices were heard outside the door.

It was indeed Qi Zheng and Qi Ercai who came in.

"Dad, second brother, these are Brother Liu’s parents."

Qi Quanjin quickly introduced them.

Both sides greeted each other courteously. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

With Qi Zheng accompanying him, Mr. Liu Sr. felt much more at ease.

Seeing that apart from Mr. Liu Sr. and Liu Qinghe there were no other men from the Liu Family, Qi Ercai didn’t stay long, greeting them before heading to the backyard.

They chatted and talked while drinking a bowl of cold tea, before finally bringing up the matter of visiting the building site.

Qi Ercai came back and joined Qi Quanjin to accompany them to see the building site.

Mrs. Qi didn’t follow but stayed at home to prepare for dinner.

Since several people from the Liu Family came today, dinner couldn’t have both men and women at the same table.

They arranged for the men to eat in the front yard hall, while the women ate in Mrs. Qi’s room in the backyard.

The rooms of Mrs. Qi and Qi Zheng were spacious enough to accommodate a dinner table.

During dinner, the two doctors were also invited to the main house in the front yard to join the Qi Family men in accompanying the Liu Family for dinner and chatting.

The backyard was much livelier.

Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Liu Sr. had a sense of having met as old friends, chatting non-stop about children and grandchildren.

Being the only young girl besides Qi Manman, Liu Meiniang felt a bit reserved.

Seeing this, Mrs. Qi asked Qi Manman to take Liu Meiniang to see Yi Meng.

Learning that Yi Meng was still in confinement, Liu Meiniang was reluctant to go, but she couldn’t resist the adorable Qi Manman calling her aunt, and so she ended up going to Yi Meng’s room.

Yi Meng’s room was originally kept clean, and with the presence of two doctors now allowing the windows to be opened for ventilation, there was no particular smell in the room.

Before entering, Liu Meiniang was worried about any unpleasant odor, but upon entering, she found the room clean and tidy, without any strange smells, which surprised her.
