Liu La looked at Chen Meng’er, the little adult, and could not help but joke.
Chen Meng’er looked at Elder Liu and said without thinking, “Of course, we’re going to ask you to compensate us if you do.”
Elder Liu did not expect Chen Meng’er to answer in this way. When he heard this answer, he felt like vomiting blood. Speaking of which, over the years, he had damaged many other people’s things, and there was no lack of valuable things, however, he did not see anyone ask him to compensate them. Moreover, they all smiled and said that it was fine.
Chen Meng’er still felt that Elder Liu had suffered less, she looked at Elder Liu and said seriously, “Grandpa Liu, this chair is very precious to me. My father personally made it for me. So, be careful. Don’t break it for me.” After saying that, Chen Meng’er didn’t look at Elder Liu’s expression and turned around to find the ancient medical book for him.!!
However, Chen Meng’er didn’t look at Elder Liu’s expression. She knew that Elder Liu’s expression must be very strange now. And when Chen Meng’er said these words, she was only half joking.
She really treasured this small chair that her father had personally given her to sit on. Even now, she still remembered the scene of her father staying up all night to make this little chair.
“This girl is really infuriating. Don’t worry, your grandfather Liu will definitely be extremely careful. Otherwise, in the end, he might be ruthlessly beaten up by you.” Elder Liu did not know why, the more he interacted with this girl, Chen Meng’er, the more he liked this girl.
Chen Meng’er did not continue to joke with Elder Liu. She squatted in front of the bed that she was sleeping on. Then, she bent down and dragged out a cardboard box from under the bed with much effort. Then, she opened the lid of the cardboard box and revealed a stack of neatly arranged books.
The books in the cardboard box could be said to be all the books in their house. Most of the books in the box were from Chen Meng’er’s eldest brother, Chen Haoguo. There were also some miscellaneous books. However, there were definitely no ancient medical books that Elder Liu wanted.
After Chen Meng’er opened the lid of the cardboard box, she pretended to look for the books in the cardboard box. While she was looking for the books, Chen Meng’er took advantage of Elder Liu’s carelessness to smuggle the ancient medical books into the cardboard box with a thought, she successfully smuggled the ancient medical book in the study room into the cardboard box.
Then, Chen Meng’er took the ancient medical book and turned her head. She smiled sweetly at Elder Liu and said, “Grandpa Liu, I found it. It’s this one.”
When Elder Liu heard that Chen Meng’er had found it, he excitedly stood up from the small chair. His movements were very clean and neat. Then, without waiting for Chen Meng’er to come over, he took a few quick steps himself, he went up to greet her. “Meng’er girl, bring the book over and show it to Grandpa Liu.”
“Yes.” Since Chen Meng’er had brought Elder Liu home today, she had already made a decision to give this ancient medical book to Elder Liu. It could be considered as a favor to Elder Liu. Moreover, Chen Meng’er could recite the knowledge in this ancient medical book fluently. Moreover, there was still that strange phenomenon. Until now, Chen Meng’er had not had the time to investigate what was going on.
Therefore, when Elder Liu reached out, Chen Meng’er handed the ancient medical book in her hand to Elder Liu.
Elder Liu took the ancient medical book in Chen Meng’er’s hand. But when he looked at the cover of the ancient medical book, his heart began to tremble. Because he was sure that this book was very similar to the cover of the book that they had lost previously. He was 80% sure that this was the real ancient medical book.
Elder Liu’s hands trembled as he opened the first page of the ancient medical book. When he saw some annotations written on the first page. The 20% uncertainty from before also disappeared. He raised his head with excitement and looked at Chen Meng’er. “Meng’er girl, can you lend this ancient medical book to me for a few days?”
“Of course, but I was prepared to give this book to you previously. Since Grandpa Liu only wants to borrow it from me to have a look, then I’ll lend it to you to have a look.” Chen Meng’er said and showed her neat little white teeth to Elder Liu.
Elder Liu did not expect that Chen Meng’er would want to give this ancient medical book to him. However, regardless of whether he had thought about it before or not, since Chen Meng’er mentioned it now, with his temper, how could he let such a good opportunity slip away in front of him. He held the ancient medical book tightly and said to Chen Meng’er, “Since Meng’er is so generous and wants to give this book to me, then I will accept it without hesitation.” Elder Liu said, looking at Chen Meng’er, who was as exquisite as a porcelain doll, and thinking about how seriously Chen Meng’er pointed out the acupoints this morning, he suddenly had an idea. “Of course, I am not the kind of villain who likes to take advantage of others. How about this, I’ll take you as my god-granddaughter. How about this? You’ll learn Chinese medicine from me in the future.”
This thought also flashed through Elder Liu’s mind. At that time, Elder Liu didn’t think much and blurted it out. However, after he said it, he felt that his own suggestion was better. “How is it? My suggestion isn’t bad, right?” Elder Liu looked at Chen Meng’er and said proudly.
Chen Meng’er didn’t expect Elder Liu to suddenly come up with such a suggestion. She originally thought that with Elder Liu’s temper, he might not take things for free. However, the ancient medical book in her hand was too tempting. Elder Liu would definitely be reluctant to give it up. Perhaps he would give her a sum of money in the end.
But she didn’t expect Elder Liu to say that he wanted to acknowledge her as his god-granddaughter. Elder Liu’s suggestion made Chen Meng’er a little dumbfounded. And the first sentence that Chen Meng’er said also made Elder Liu a little dumbfounded.. “Grandpa Liu, since you want me to learn medicine from you, then why not acknowledge me as your disciple, not as your god-granddaughter?”
