Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser - Chapter 246
Chapter 246: Grandpa, This Rice Is from My Brother’s Wife
“That’s right! Baby, where did you get this rice? Why did you only buy half a bag?” Second Uncle and Second Aunt were also very curious at this moment. The main thing was that it tasted too good. When the old man ate just now, the couple couldn’t help but swallow their saliva.
The Qi family didn’t lack money to begin with, so Second Uncle and Second Aunt decided to ask where the rice came from and then immediately buy more.
Second Aunt also thought that just nice, Haozi liked this rice. She would buy more in the future for him to eat as much as he wanted!
Qi Hao thought of the half-bag of rice and flushed with guilt. “I didn’t buy it; someone gave it to my brother!”
He also knew that he had really caused his whole family a lot of trouble this time. Thinking about how precious this rice was and that it was from his sister-in-law, he didn’t blame his brother for thrashing him. However, he was afraid that his brother would always remember this, and would hit him whenever he saw him!
Wasn’t he too miserable?
So, while his grandfather was in a particularly good mood, he quickly confessed everything he had done and hoped that the old man would protect him.
Of course, despite his carefree personality, Qi Hao was still pretty smart.
He was very deft with some of this words, such as “the rice that was casually given to Lu Chengfu” turned into “the rice that was accidentally given to Lu Chengfu,” and “when I first received the rice, I didn’t examine it carefully at all” turned into “when I first received it, I took a serious look at that bag of rice, but I unfortunately didn’t know it was good stuff.” Thus, he accidentally gave it away.
“Grandpa, I was really wrong! I don’t dare do it again. Can you help me talk to my brother?” Qi Hao said carefully.
Grandpa Qi had eaten more salt than this kid had eaten rice in his entire life. How could he dupe the old man with this little ploy? This kid had a carefree temperament; it was probably Zhenbai who had bought this rice.
Back then, this kid didn’t think the rice which Zhenbai bought was anything much. He found it troublesome, so he just gave it away.
Grandpa Qi had tasted the rice porridge, and it was really delicious. After eating the hot porridge, he felt a warm current flowing through his body, and he was full of energy. This rice should be good stuff.
But this kid actually gave away such delicious rice?
What a deadweight!
Grandpa Qi was in a good mood after eating to his heart’s content. Although the rice was delicious, it couldn’t compare with this grandson’s pitiful appearance. He said, “Forget it. Don’t do this again next time!”
“Grandpa, you’re too good to me!”
Wait!
Grandpa Qi was very puzzled. Even if this rice wasn’t an ordinary good thing, it shouldn’t have angered Zhenbai! Could it be because of the person who gave him the rice?
Thinking this, Grandpa Qi was thrilled. It would be even better if Zhenbai found himself a wife. He didn’t care much about status, as long as her family background and character were clean.
Grandpa Qi suddenly narrowed his eyes. “Kid, are you hiding something else from me?”
Second Uncle and Second Aunt were about to speak, but Grandpa Qi directly sent them upstairs so that it was just him and Qi Hao in the living room.
Seeing his grandfather send away his parents, who had been about to speak up for him, Qi Hao was suddenly frightened by his grandfather’s serious question. He stuttered, “I… I… I’m not!”
Although Grandpa Qi was old and his eyes were a little cloudy, his gaze was very sharp and piercing. Frightened, Qi Hao obediently handed over the rice test report which he had gotten from Lu Chengfu.
Grandpa Qi took the test report, but wasn’t in a hurry to look at it. He continued to stare at this kid. Qi Hao wanted to cry without tears, and he stuttered, “There’s really no- nothing else… There’s one more thing: my brother has a wife! This rice is also from my sister-in-law, who is my brother’s wife!”
