After saying this, she was stunned for a moment, but she did not regret it.
Taking a deep breath, she walked towards Zhou Zhou step by step, squatted in front of her, hugged the little girl in her arms lovingly, patted her back gently, and said in a gentle voice: "Zhou Zhou, don't be afraid, grandma wants you, come home with me."
Eh?
Zhou Zhou stopped crying and stared at her blankly.
Her voice was gentle, her embrace was warm, her big hands stroked her back with some comfort. Whether in the temple or the Taoist temple, there were a bunch of men around, and this was the first time a woman hugged her.
Fragrant, soft and warm.
It made her feel a little nostalgic.
She originally just wanted to pretend to cry so that Master Mingtong would soften his heart and not abandon her, but she didn't expect that the first person to soften his heart would be the old lady.
Her gentle voice rang in her ears again, and Zhou Zhou's nose felt sore. This time she really wanted to cry.
She was the first one who didn't dislike her.
Thinking of something, Zhou Zhou's eyes dimmed again, and she stepped out of her arms. Her fingertips reluctantly grabbed the corner of her clothes, but finally let go. She hung her head and said dejectedly, "Thank you, grandma, but it's not necessary."
She wiped her eyes and felt a little wet. "I am destined to be short of money. I will cause your family to go bankrupt and become very poor. We can't afford to eat. There are only a few grains of rice and the bowls are all broken."
The more she spoke, the sadder she became. Finally, she took a deep breath, looked up and smiled at her, "I know that grandma is good to me, but I can't repay kindness with hatred. I can beg for food and won't starve. You don't have to worry about me."
As she spoke, she smiled broadly at her again, with dimples appearing on her face, making her look well-behaved and cute.
Old Madam Qin's heart softened even more.
Pulling her, he waved his hand and said generously, "What's the big deal? Grandma's family has plenty of money. If you can really spend it all, that's a real talent. Grandma likes granddaughters who can spend money."
When this word came out, her heart moved slightly.
Perhaps, it would not be a bad idea to let her become her granddaughter.
She had asked Zhou Zhou just now and learned that she grew up in the mountains, had been a monk, and later became a Taoist priest. In short, she was picked up by the abbot when she was still a baby.
She is an orphan.
Now that her master has asked her to leave the mountain and Mingtong doesn't want her, it might not be a bad idea for her to adopt her.
What's there to be afraid of if you can spend money? The Qin family has plenty of money.
Thinking of this, she took Zhou Zhou's hand and said gently, "Zhou Zhou just said that you are short of money, right?"
Zhou Zhou nodded.
Madam Qin's voice became even gentler. "What a coincidence! Grandma's family is very rich, and her son is the richest man in the world. Tell me, are we a good match?"
One is destined to be short of money, the other has plenty of it.
She was born to come to their house!
Seeing that she looked like the big bad wolf trying to coax Little Red Riding Hood, Old Master Qin couldn't bear to watch her. His eyes fell on Zhou Zhou and he nodded slightly.
He also likes porridge.
It seems like it??s really nice to raise such a chubby little granddaughter, much better than those bad boys at home.
As for being short of money, that??s a joke. Is the Qin family afraid of this?
Oh, there is such a saying?
Zhou Zhou tilted his head and thought about it, still a little hesitant, pinching the corner of his clothes and whispering: "But, I bankrupted both the temple and the Taoist temple."
She was not stupid and knew the reasons why the temples and Taoist temples went bankrupt, so when the master wanted her to go down the mountain, she just pretended to cry and asked for some gifts, and she had no intention of staying.
She didn't want to implicate anyone anymore.
Hearing this, Madam Qin touched her head, which was smooth and felt very good. She smiled and said, "Although fate is determined by heaven, the results may be different if you meet different people. For example, some people have a hard fate and are unlucky in marriage. If they meet someone with the same hard fate, the two of them may be a match made in heaven, right?"
She lowered her voice very softly, with a hint of coaxing.
She made up her mind today that she must take Zhou Zhou home!
Thinking of this, she winked at Old Master Qin again.
Seeing this, Mr. Qin coughed lightly, tried to soften his expression, and raised the corners of his mouth with difficulty, but his voice was still a little hard, "The Qin family is not short of money, so we can spend it at will!"
Old Madam Qin looked at his stiff mouth and couldn't help but glare at him. His smile was so scary, be careful not to scare Zhou Zhou.
Old Master Qin also looked helpless, he couldn't laugh.
Ignoring him, she turned her head and continued to talk to Zhou Zhou: "Grandpa is right. Our family is big and has hundreds of companies everywhere. We can't spend all the money in dozens of lifetimes. If Zhou Zhou can help us spend some of it, he will really be a great benefactor to our family."
"Besides, my grandmother's family is rich and has a lot of delicious food, such as Luohan vegetarian food, five-color Ruyi, strawberry yam, Jinyumantang, Kaimenjianbao, vegetarian Buddha jumps over the wall... they are all delicious."
It sounds delicious.
Zhou Zhou listened to what she said and couldn't help swallowing.
I really want to eat it.
Seeing her wavering, Mingtong rolled his eyes and came over to say, "Yes, Zhou Zhou, there are a lot of delicious food down the mountain. I'm not doing well, and you can only eat free meals and wash dishes to pay off debts if you follow me. It's too hard. Why don't you follow this grandma home and try? Your destinies complement each other. Maybe this is the fate that God has set for you. How can you know if you don't try?"
Old Madam Qin glanced at him and knew that he was afraid that Zhou Zhou would continue to follow him, but at least he was helping to push Zhou Zhou towards her, so she didn't say anything.
Seeing that Zhou Zhou was still a little conflicted, she pulled her hand and covered her chest with it, groaning, "Grandma has always wanted a granddaughter. Zhou Zhou, please pity me and fulfill my wish, okay?"
As she spoke, she wiped her eyes.
Zhou Zhou looked at her like this and felt that she looked very familiar. She looked like this when she pretended to cry.
She wanted to say something but stopped herself, but she didn't have the heart to expose that she was acting.
Seeing her looking at me eagerly, my heart softened and I nodded subconsciously, "Okay."
A smile instantly broke out on Old Madam Qin's face. The moment she nodded, she immediately picked her up, stuffed her into the car, hugged her tightly and refused to let go, urging the driver to drive quickly, as if she was afraid that she would change her mind and run away.
Mr. Qin and the butler understood and got into the car immediately. The door slammed shut and the car started up immediately and disappeared from the spot in less than three seconds.
Looking at the car speeding away, Ming Tong couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. He lowered his head and counted with his fingers, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Looking at the direction they left, a meaningful smile appeared on his face.
It??s God??s will.
Here, Old Madam Qin rushed home with Zhou Zhou, and immediately took out all the vegetarian food she could eat at home, filling the coffee table with them.
When Zhou Zhou saw all these various things, his eyes suddenly opened wider and he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
Seeing this, Old Madam Qin burst out laughing, opened a pack of biscuits and handed it to her, "Here, have some porridge."
Zhou Zhou leaned over to look at the black, round thing inside, hesitant for a moment, but finally, seeing her expectant gaze, he took a tentative bite. As soon as it entered his mouth, his eyes lit up, "Delicious!"
Old Madam Qin liked to see her like this, and wished she could send all the delicious food in the world to her, "Then eat more, try them all, and tell grandma which one you like, and grandma will buy you more."
"Um!"
With a good start, Zhou Zhou was no longer resisting these new things. He puffed up his cheeks and started to eat with a gulp.
Old Madam Qin was watching from the side, with a smile on her face that never faded.
so cute.
This will be her granddaughter from now on!
Thinking of this, the smile on her face became even bigger.
But just in case, we still have to find a way to keep Zhou Zhou in their house forever.
At the very least, registering for household registration is the first priority.
But whose household registration should I register under?
They are of different generations, and the little girl may not be able to be registered with her and the old man. The four sons have all started their own families, so the only thing left is...
Got it!
Her eyes lit up, she took out her cell phone, took a photo of Zhou Zhou, opened the address book and sent it to someone, then lowered her head to edit the message.
[Look, your daughter! ]
