Chapter 148: Seeking a Talisman to Ward Off Evil Spirits
Chu Xing smiled and said, "How could I look down on my wife? I'm just worried that you're too kind and will be bullied, but you'll still endure it and give in."
He said this but muttered in his heart, it's not like I haven't seen with my own eyes the power of your slap. The five finger marks are clearly visible. How could I underestimate you?
I'm just worried that if you get beaten up by a group of people, even if you are a martial arts expert, you won't be able to defeat the crowd, you idiot.
Ru Meng had already gotten out of the car when Chu Xing woke up and complained, "Grandma and grandma are still waiting for us, why are you still dawdling? Don't you feel stuffy in the car?"
Ru Meng looked back and smiled, blinked her clear and lively eyes, and then spoke lightly:
"In a civilized era, when faced with unprovoked provocations, of course we have to outsmart them. Fighting and killing is not my style, but when I can no longer tolerate it, I will give someone a slap in the face."
Chu Xing gave Ru Meng a thumbs up: "Young Madam is really amazing!"
Ru Meng smiled bitterly: "Don't you always like to stand by and watch? How can I not be independent and self-reliant?
Chu Xing couldn't help but grin: "I was observing your commercial value."
"Stop talking nonsense. I don't know if grandma and grandma have had dinner yet. Go back to the house quickly." Rumeng said.
Chu Xing replied in seconds: "Okay, Madam."
He just got off the car and seemed to have thought of something. After a few seconds, he quickly caught up with Rumeng and asked, "What time do you plan to meet with Editor-in-Chief Cheng?"
Rumeng thought for a few seconds and then replied, "Tomorrow afternoon at 2:30. What's wrong? Are you worried about me going alone?"
"Don't worry, why wouldn't I? My wife is a talented person in both civil and military affairs, there is nothing to worry about." Chu Xing said.
After he finished speaking, he took a deep breath and then continued, "I want you to take care of grandma at home tomorrow morning. I will send grandma to Yan Feng's place and let Yan Feng take her to take the high-speed train."
Ru Meng was stunned for a few seconds when she heard Chu Xing's words, and then she laughed secretly. This guy is more nervous than anyone else right now. It won't be wrong to be more careful at this time.
She turned her head to look at Chu Xing and said, "Don't worry. If they didn't shoot or poison me, I believe Grandma will be fine. But we must be on guard. I'll trouble you, Master Chu."
Then, she added, "Aunt Zhang will be back tomorrow, probably in the afternoon. I can take care of grandma in the morning, no problem. After you send grandma off, you can go and do your own things."
"Rumeng..." Chu Xing hesitated to speak. After a moment of silence, he suddenly grabbed Rumeng's arms with both hands, lowered his head and kissed her forehead, then said, "It's great to have you!"
Ru Meng laughed and scolded: "Boring."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked into the house: "Grandma, grandma, we are back."
Grandma and grandma, who were chatting in the living room, looked at Rumeng when they heard the voice: "Are you back? Then wash your hands and get ready for dinner. I'll go heat up the food."
Ru Meng was stunned: "Grandma, grandma, haven't you two eaten yet?"
"We're not hungry. We'll eat together when you come back," said grandma.
"Sorry! Grandma and grandma, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time." Rumeng said.
She put down the shopping bag and continued, "We thought it wouldn't take long to buy cookies. Who knows if I was possessed by evil spirits? Wherever I went, I encountered some unscrupulous people who provoked me and delayed my time."
Grandma asked with concern: "Granddaughter-in-law, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, grandma, don't worry! It's just that this happens often and I feel a little unhappy." Rumeng said.
Chu Xing smiled and said, "Grandma, don't worry. Your granddaughter-in-law is good at fighting monsters. I have to learn from her."
Ru Meng opened her clear and lively eyes and looked at Chu Xing: "Are you praising me or insulting me?"
Chu Xing: "Of course I'm praising you. Why would I want to insult my wife if I have nothing to do?"
"It's hard to say. Haven't you made enough fun of me?" Rumeng said. After she finished speaking, she turned away and didn't look at Chuxing.
Grandma asked, "Really? Chu Xing, this is your fault."
Chu Xing: "Grandma, how can you not distinguish right from wrong? How could I mock her? I feel sorry for her. It's obviously your granddaughter-in-law who is bullying me, okay?"
at this time,
Grandma came out of the kitchen with a smile on her face: "The food is ready, come and wash your hands and eat. Only when you are full will you have the energy to argue."
Rumeng, Chuxing and her grandmother couldn't help laughing after hearing what her grandmother said!
Grandma looked at grandma with gratitude and sighed: "It's great to have grandma. I am an old lady and my mood and health are much better. Grandma, you have worked hard!"
Grandma smiled and said, "Isn't it my wish that you are healthy and safe? Come and have dinner."
Rumeng smiled and said, "Okay, grandma, thank you for your hard work. I really don't want you to go back to the countryside."
"Silly girl, grandma has gone back, but it doesn't mean she won't come back." said grandma.
"By the way, grandma, is there any Taoist priest or fairy in the countryside who can exorcise evil spirits? I've been having trouble with evil spirits lately. Can you help me get an evil-avoiding talisman?" Rumeng said.
She always felt like she didn't know what was wrong with her. Whenever she went out, she would get into trouble and was very unhappy.
Grandma smiled and said, "You are overthinking. The behavior of some young people in this world is not something that even Taoist priests and immortals can help."
Chu Xing agreed: "Grandma is still open-minded, Grandma DDYS!"
Ru Meng couldn't help laughing: "How would grandma know about DDYS? Husband, if you want to express your feelings, just be direct."
The four generations of grandparents and grandchildren chatted while eating, having a great time!
......
The next morning, Rumeng and Chuxing both got up very early.
After washing up, they hurried downstairs to prepare breakfast.
They bought a lot of bread yesterday, so they just need to fry a few eggs and breakfast will be ready, which doesn't take much time.
Rumeng went upstairs and knocked on her grandmother's door: "Grandma, grandma...are you awake?"
She called a few times, and seeing no response from inside the room, she turned the doorknob and opened the door.
......? ?
Grandma is not in there. Where is she?
Rumeng hurried downstairs and knocked on grandma's door: "Grandma...Grandma, are you awake?"
Grandma didn't respond either. Rumeng felt a little nervous. Just when she was about to turn the key to her grandma's door, her grandmother opened the door from the inside and gestured for her not to make a sound.
Rumeng nodded slightly and looked at her grandmother with a puzzled look.
Grandma gently closed grandma's door, and after she and Rumeng came to the living room, she spoke: "Grandma called me in the middle of the night and said that her head was a little swollen and painful and she couldn't sleep. I came down to give her a few injections, and after she took the medicine, she fell asleep. Let her rest well."
Chu Xing heard the noise and walked out of the restaurant, "Ru Meng, what's going on?"
"Grandma was not feeling well last night. She didn't tell us and called grandma," said Rumeng.
Then, she looked at her grandmother with a worried look on her face: "Grandma, is grandma's condition serious?"
Grandma comforted her:
"It's okay. It was caused by grandma taking the pills. Grandma is old and has been poisoned for a long time. Her meridians are blocked and the blood cannot detoxify smoothly. It is an adverse reaction. It is also a normal reaction."
