“Then sit over here!”

Grandpa Qi gestured gently.

“Mm!”

Qi Yan hurried over obediently.

She was dressed in a demure short, pleated dress. Clutching her skirt slightly, Qi Yan sat down obediently. She couldn’t help but look at Ling Chuan next to her with a happy and slightly smug expression.

On her other side, a certain second brother had already automatically shifted away a little.

A certain fourth brother, who was at the end of the long bench, was about to be squeezed off.

On the other side, Grandpa Qi sighed and asked everyone, “Do you mind adding another setting?”

No one said anything. It was Lu An who said blankly, “No, of course not!”

“Then, I’ll get her the utensils?”

As he spoke, he got up to get Qi Yan some cutlery.

Of course, Lu An hurriedly pushed him back. “Let me go. You’re the elder; how can we let you go?”

With that, Lu An got up and quickly went to the kitchen to get Qi Yan a set of clean cutlery.

“Here!”

She was polite and magnanimous as she placed the bowl and chopsticks in front of Qi Yan. Lu An smiled slightly without any emotion.

Qi Yan thanked her. Then, she picked up her chopsticks and took a simple bite of the spicy and sour shredded potato that was closest to her.

It was too sour and spicy, and also had the smell of green onions on it. Qi Yan almost couldn’t take it, but she quickly swallowed.

Looking at Second Brother, who was actually sitting a few hand spans away from her, Qi Yan looked embarrassed. She smiled and said fawningly, “Did Second Brother cook this?

“It’s delicious!”

As Qi Yan spoke, she picked up a few more pieces and ate them.

“Oh?”

A certain second brother was very surprised and said very directly, “I remember you saying before that everything I make is trash?

“Er, is, is that right?”

Qi Yan froze. She didn’t expect Second Brother to not give her any face.

Her face was tense, and she smiled as she braced herself and said, “Erm, I was thoughtless in the past.”

“Really?”

Second Brother’s reply was very simple.

His expression was cold and calm, and he didn’t say anything else.

Qi Yan was conflicted. She just sat quietly and didn’t dare say anything else.

The atmosphere fell into a strange silence.

Compared with the commotion at the beginning, the difference was like between heaven and earth.

Lu An was extremely confused. She ate the shredded potato and spicy cabbage in large bites, her black eyes darting between the two of them. She noticed in particular that Grandpa seemed very uncomfortable. Lu An pondered carefully.

Suddenly, she thought of something. “Oh, right, Grandpa set up a pond near the melon field to feed crabs. This is when crayfish is in season.

“Why don’t we catch crayfish?

“There are bamboo poles and nets on the side. We’ll just walk along the bank, and there are a lot of lobster holes. In any case, we have nothing to do.

“Are all of you full?”

“We’re full, we’re full. We’ve long been full!”

When they heard Little Sister say to catch crayfish, the brothers immediately became restless and couldn’t sit still anymore.

Ling Chuan already couldn’t sit still the moment Qi Yan arrived.

That thick perfume!

The little girl had saved his life!

Ling Chuan immediately got up and turned to Lu An.

He had a steady and tall figure, and his face was expressionless; he was clearly quietly taking deep breaths.

It was as if he wanted to inhale more of her scent to neutralize the pungent perfume from earlier.

Seeing that her brothers were all very willing to go, and Qi Yan was still sitting down, Lu An asked, “Are you coming with us?”
