Chapter 2388: Chapter 2392: Very Satisfied
"Little brother, do you want to eat boiled fish or roasted chicken leg?" Xiao Shumiao’s question interrupted his thoughts.
"Huh?" Qin Junye snapped back to reality, "I want to eat boiled fish, and also roasted chicken leg."
"Okay!" Xiao Shumiao served him a bowl of boiled fish and handed him a roasted chicken leg, "Little brother, eat as much as you like, no problem at all. We have a lot left; if we can’t finish, it’ll go to waste."
Qin Junye nodded, "Xie Xie, Xiao Shu!"
He was a child with reserved emotions, not like Xiao Shumiao, who expressed his feelings openly.
But in his heart, he felt that Xiao Shumiao was the best child he had ever met.
So beautiful, so cute, and with such a kind heart.
He liked Xiao Shumiao a lot!
After finishing a chicken leg, he wiped his mouth clean and looked up at Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei, "Uncle, Aunt, I’ve decided, I want to go home with you."
Gu Junzhu curled his lips, "What? Don’t you think we’re bad people now?"
"No, I don’t think you’re bad people," Qin Junye admitted candidly, "I like Xiao Shumiao, and I want to be friends with him. Xiao Shumiao is so nice, you are his parents, you certainly can’t be bad people!"
Qin Junye’s confession hit the mark for Fifth Lord of Gu.
Qin Junye praising his son was more effective than praising anyone else.
Hearing Qin Junye praise Xiao Shumiao, Gu Junzhu’s smile widened, and he nodded, "Alright, when we leave, you can come with us."
Qin Junye pursed his lips, "Uncle, may I ask you to help me with something?"
Gu Junzhu looked at him, "Go ahead."
Qin Junye said, "All of my grandfather’s belongings are at my second uncle’s place. I want to take two things as mementos for myself."
"Is that so?" Gu Junzhu said, "You just need to ask him for them."
Qin Junye shook his head, "I can’t, he won’t let me in at all. He’s hidden all my grandfather’s belongings, and I can’t find anything."
Gu Junzhu asked, "Are your grandfather’s belongings valuable?"
Qin Junye shook his head, "Not valuable, just a pair of hickory nuts. My grandfather used to play with them every day. I don’t want anything else, just that pair of hickory nuts."
"Then just tell him directly," Gu Junzhu said, "Tell him you’re leaving the village and want that pair of hickory nuts as a keepsake, and you won’t be coming back. He’ll definitely give them to you happily."
"Really?" Qin Junye asked skeptically, "But I’ve asked him many times. He always scolds me and refuses to give me anything."
"That’s because you didn’t tell him you’re leaving," Gu Junzhu said, "His biggest wish now is for you to leave quickly and stop using your grandfather’s inheritance. Getting peace in exchange for a pair of hickory nuts is something he would welcome. He’ll give them to you for sure."
"Is that so?" Qin Junye suddenly stood up, "Then I’ll go ask him now!"
"Finish eating before you go," Ye Xingbei said, "We’ll be staying here for a few more days, so there’s no rush."
"No, I’m in a hurry," Qin Junye said, "He’s definitely home for dinner right now. If I go late, he might not be home."
As he spoke, he eagerly ran down the mountain.
"It’s alright, don’t worry about him," Gu Junzhu said, "The fire is still going, and the chicken soup’s in the pot being kept warm. He can eat when he returns."
"Yes," Ye Xingbei said, "He seems like a child who values emotions."
