"Ah?" Bai Ya, who had hidden the spirit stone bag in her arms, looked at him again after hearing this, as if asking, uncle, what else do you want?

Meng Zhou said in a deep voice: "When you go back, remember to remind your mother-in-law and ask her to move as soon as possible."

"Ah? Why?"

"Little girl, do you know what it means to eat a dead household?"

Bai Ya shook her head blankly.

After a long time, the confusion on her face turned into panic.

Seeing this, Meng Zhou couldn't bear it. But he reminded her quietly that it was already the limit of his abilities and he couldn't interfere with anything. What's more, with Granny Bai's weird temper, others might not accept this sentiment.

He waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go, and pay attention to safety on the road."

After saying that, Meng Zhou turned around and left.

"Uncle."

"Huh?" Meng Zhou turned to look at her.

"You are a good person!" Bai Ya said seriously.

Meng Zhou couldn't laugh or cry. If she were a few years older, her words would have made him depressed for at least half a year.

Bai Ya reached into her arms, took out something, and placed the precious thing in his palm.

Meng Zhou looked at the straw grasshopper in his hand in surprise as if it was about to jump away at any moment.

"Give it to me?"

"Well, I'll give it to you!"

"Okay, thank you!"

Meng Zhou looked at it carefully from all angles, then took it into his arms and solemnly thanked her.

He turned to leave again.

"Uncle."

"Um?"

Meng Zhou stopped and turned around again, thinking to himself, this girl is not taking revenge on me, after all, she made her cry so miserably yesterday.

"Are you the uncle who asked me for directions that day?" she said suddenly.

When Meng Zhou heard this, he was stunned at first, and then shuddered. Instead of denying it, he asked: "How did you figure it out?"

"Because you are all greedy for the grasshopper I made up, and other adults won't even take a second look at it."

"Uh..." Her explanation left Meng Zhou speechless.

He thought that there was some fatal flaw in his disguise that allowed a little girl to spot the suspicion, but he didn't expect that this was the reason.

She was right, she was indeed a bit greedy for knitting grasshoppers. To be more precise, he was greedy for not just grasshoppers, but also any exquisite hand-knitted fabrics. This was an obsession brought out from his childhood in his previous life.

His craftsmanship is terrible, but there are peers who can use local materials to weave pistols, spears, cats and dogs and other toys out of common things. He is really envious of this, even as an adult, this kind of envy

The feeling remains undiminished.

As a handicraft waste, he was convinced that he would never be able to do what others could do when they were only a few years old.

A world away, he saw a child with a similar talent and an even more powerful one. The relevant memories were naturally brought back. In addition, he really didn't pay attention to this aspect, and he never thought that he had accidentally missed the point.

.

Seeing him say "Uh" and freeze on the spot, Bai Ya showed a victorious smile, turned around and ran away.

…

Bai Ya ran all the way back to Gujing Street, and the sky was already dark.

The grocery store was also closed, with only a small side door ajar. Seeing this scene, she felt nervous and walked in quietly.

After just two steps, a cold voice sounded in the house:

"Girl, you really have strong wings. Not only do you dare to lie, you actually learned to steal!"

Bai Ya trembled with fright, slowly turned towards the direction of the sound, put her feet together and stood up straight, looking like an honest child waiting to be punished.

"Mother-in-law." she shouted.

"Come here!" said Granny Bai.

Bai Ya walked over in small steps.

"Kneel down!"

Bai Ya knelt on the ground with a pop.

Grandma Bai was lying on the wicker chair, squinting her eyes, as if she was asleep.

Bai Ya knew that according to her mother-in-law's temper, she would not say another word until she was satisfied.

But when she thought about her uncle's reminder just now, she didn't care so much anymore and said hurriedly: "Mother-in-law, I have something important to tell you!"

"Shut up, have you forgotten the rules? Even if it is a big deal, wait until you are punished before talking about it!" Granny Bai said coldly.

"It's really important, it's a matter of our life and death!" Bai Ya said hurriedly, her face full of anxiety.

Granny Bai stopped making sarcastic remarks and lay there motionless, as if she was completely dead.

After a long time, she said with a cold tone and a joking tone:

"Then tell me what is the matter of life and death.

Is the sky going to collapse, or is Baiyue Bay going to sink?"

"Ah?" Bai Ya was stunned by her words. Her little brain was almost burned out, and she didn't know how to answer.

Granny Bai continued: "Did you steal the exercises to give to the person who came to the door that day?"

"Um."

"Then, he used that huge news concerning our life and death to take away this skill from you?"

"ah?"

"Have you ever grown a brain? It's so simple..."

Granny Bai was about to scold her, but was interrupted by a "snap" sound at her feet.

She opened her eyes and saw a bag of spiritual stones being thrown on the ground, with hundreds of spiritual stones scattered on the ground.

"Mother-in-law, you guessed wrong. Uncle bought it from Hua Lingshi."

Bai Ya did not dare to delay, and she had no idea of ​​"taking advantage of the victory to attack" her mother-in-law, so she quickly told Meng Zhou's reminder about "eating the whole family".

Granny Bai, who was still a little solemn after seeing the spirit stone, relaxed again and said hehe, "I really thought I had some brilliant insights."

Bai Ya continued:

"Uncle said, you must think that you are hiding something and your strength is much stronger than what everyone sees, so you are confident.

But he said that unless you are strong enough to overwhelm the entire Baiyue Bay, you will not be able to change our dangerous situation."

"Uncle said, mother-in-law, you have hidden some strength, which is not important at all.

The important thing is that everyone thinks that you are only at the fifth level of Qi training, and you are aging rapidly."

Grandma Bai couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence, and even wanted to make fun of it.

But soon, she vaguely realized something, and thought about it more carefully for a while.
