Chapter 107: Visit to the Zhao Family (3)
Chen Meng’er frowned. “Will it be too troublesome for Uncle Da Peng?” Originally, Da Peng coming to pick her up once a week already made her feel that it was too troublesome for him. And this time, he even made Da Peng come over just to help her tell her parents that she would be back tomorrow. It was really too troublesome.
“It’s fine. Anyway, your Uncle Da Peng has been very free recently. It’s a good opportunity for him to practice his driving skills.” Elder Liu said this without blinking. However, it was a good thing that Da Peng was sitting in the car and did not hear his teacher’s words. If Da Peng heard his teacher’s words, his face would definitely be full of anger. What did he mean by letting him practice his driving skills? Were his driving skills very bad?
When Chen Meng’er heard her grandfather’s words, the corners of her mouth could not help but twitch.
“Alright, it’s settled then. I’ll go and inform your uncle Da Peng.” As he spoke, Elder Liu did not wait for Chen Meng’er’s reply and continued walking towards the driver’s seat. As he walked, Elder Liu even muttered to himself, “When do I have to find someone to install a phone in Meng’er’s house? This way, it’ll be more convenient.” Elder Liu had this idea not since the first day.
Elder Zhao, who had been acting as the background, finally had a chance to speak. “Girl, are you in kindergarten?” Elder Zhao was quite surprised. He remembered that Chen Meng’er’s parents were both rural people, and when did the rural areas have kindergartens?
“No. I’m in primary school. I’m now a primary school first grade student,” Chen Meng’er replied.
“What? Girl, you’re in primary school? How old are you this year?” Elder Zhao looked at Chen Meng’er, who was much younger than his seven-year-old grandchild who was in the first grade.
“Three years old,” Chen Meng’er replied matter-of-factly.
“Three, three years old? You’re in the first grade at three years old?” Elder Zhao stared at Chen Meng’er in disbelief.
“Why? Elder Zhao, do you have a problem? My Meng’er is a young genius.” Elder Liu had just finished explaining things to Da Peng. When he walked back, he heard Elder Zhao’s incredulous tone. Then, he said proudly.
“How would I dare to have a problem? If I had a problem, would you let me off just like that? I’m just surprised. However, thinking about it, it makes sense. Meng’er is so young, yet she’s so proficient in Chinese medicine. If she’s not a genius, then what is she?” Elder Zhao gazed at Chen Meng’er.
After Elder Zhao finished speaking, Elder Liu had a tactful expression on his face. He was about to praise Chen Meng’er, but when Chen Meng’er noticed her grandfather’s expression, she didn’t dare to let him speak, “Grandpa, don’t we still have to go to Elder Zhao’s house to treat Elder Zhao’s grandchild? If we delay any longer, it’ll be too late.”
“Oh, right, it’s getting late. Then let’s go.” Chen Meng’er successfully changed the topic, which made Chen Meng’er sigh in relief. She couldn’t stand the way her grandfather, Elder Liu, kept praising her.
The Zhao family lived in a small district not far from Elder Liu’s pharmacy. It was only about ten minute walk from the pharmacy. Of course, it was even closer if they took a car.
The Zhao family lived in a villa. Although the area was not very big, in this era, such a villa was very rare.
It was clear that the Zhao family was not a simple family. At least they were quite rich. As for whether they had the power or not, Chen Meng’er did not know for the time being.
“We’re here, Elder Liu. Meng’er, come down.” After the car stopped at the entrance of the villa, Elder Liu opened the car door and said to Chen Meng’er and Elder Liu.
“Yes.” Elder Liu replied. Chen Meng’er first got out of the car and then waited for Elder Liu by the car. After Elder Liu got out of the car, Chen Meng’er held Elder Liu’s hand. Speaking of which, Chen Meng’er wanted to hold Elder Liu’s hand. However, with her height, the matter of holding his arm… she simply couldn’t do it..
