Finally, the meal was ready, and the three of them gathered around the small table and ate under the grape trellis in the yard.

I have to say that Qiaoqiao's craftsmanship is indeed very good, at least in Ye Chen's opinion, it is comparable to an ordinary restaurant!

"This chicken stewed with potatoes tastes great!"

"Okay, I didn't expect you to be really good at cooking."

"What about that? I'll pay for the food from now on, and I'll come here to eat often."

Ye Chen stuffed his mouth with food and spoke vaguely.

"You can come to eat if you want, but you don't have to pay for food!" Qiaoqiao said with a smile.

"You're kidding!" Ye Chen rolled his eyes: "I'm your brother. Besides, I'm here to eat, can I not pay for the food?"

"Just listen to me on this. From now on, I will send someone 2000 yuan every month. All in all, when I come, I must have this chicken stewed with potatoes. Don't give me any excuses!"

"If you refuse again, I won't come again."

Ye Chen was helping him in disguise, but he didn't want to damage her self-esteem. Qiaoqiao naturally knew this.

But she was really afraid that the other party would really stop visiting her. Even if the other party was just joking, she would not allow the slightest possibility.

So she didn't refuse.

The old lady on the side saw it and couldn't help laughing: "You two really look like brothers and sisters."

"Otherwise, if you don't mind it in the future, come more. We have a room here. I will clean it up for you later. From now on, it will be your exclusive room."

Ye Chen smiled and nodded: "I think this will work!"

Qiaoqiao chuckled and rolled her eyes: "Are you really embarrassed to let grandma clean it up?"

"I'll clean it up later."

Ye Chen smiled awkwardly.

At this time, the third uncle also walked in.

He was holding a white rectangular plastic water bottle.

The kettle was sloshing around, filled with wine.

Qiaoqiao, who was standing next to him, saw the third uncle arriving and said hurriedly: "Third uncle, please sit down and I will prepare a pair of bowls and chopsticks for you."

The third uncle smiled and said: "Okay, give me two more cups!"

After a pause, the third uncle looked at Ye Chen: "Little brother, can you have some drink?"

Ye Chen was happy.

He is known as one who never gets drunk after a thousand drinks. Besides, in this atmosphere, it seems like there is something wrong if he doesn't drink some wine.

"Okay, drink some!"

Ye Chen nodded.

With the participation of the third uncle, the laughter and laughter during the meal became even more pleasant.

No, Qiaoqiao on the side stared at Ye Chen chatting with the third uncle from time to time, her eyes full of admiration.

Even the many strange place names and some strange things that Ye Chen said were full of yearning and curiosity in her opinion.

Seeing this, the old lady next to her seemed to be aware of her granddaughter's thoughts. She smiled but said nothing, but her heart was like a mirror.

Finally, after the meal was over, Ye Chen did not use his inner energy and was indeed a little drunk.

But the third uncle still underestimated Ye Chen's drinking capacity.

No, he had already thought about it when he came, and he would get the kid drunk and put him on the bed so that Qiaoqiao could consider whether he wanted to have a meal.

But in the end, the third uncle got down first, and finally let his family members go back before leaving!

Ye Chen was helped to the bedside. He was lying in the packed room. Qiaoqiao next to him wanted to wipe him with a hot towel, but found that there was a jade pendant on Ye Chen's body.

She picked up the jade pendant and took a look at it curiously, and was stunned as if struck by lightning.

"This this……"

Qiaoqiao hurriedly threw down the towel, pushed the wheels on her wheelchair, and rushed to her room.

The next moment, she pulled out a pendant from the drawer.

This is also a jade pendant, and the appearance of the jade pendant is exactly the same as the one worn around Ye Chen's neck.

"How could this happen... Could it be that he..."

Qiaoqiao didn't dare to think further. She didn't dare to solve the mystery because she was worried that she would be disappointed.

At this time, grandma opened the door and walked in.

"Qiaoqiao, Xiaochen, has he laid down to rest?"

After grandma entered the door, she found Qiaoqiao holding a jade pendant in her hand, with a helpless smile on her face.

She came to sit on the edge of the bed in front of Qiaoqiao and reached out to rub Qiaoqiao's hair.

"Silly girl, are you thinking about your family again?"

Grandma asked with a smile.

This jade pendant was originally sent together with Qiaoqiao.

Grandma heard her daughter say that this jade pendant is related to the mystery of Qiaoqiao's life experience, so she told grandma not to lose it.

No, when grandma saw Qiaoqiao holding this jade pendant, she naturally thought that Qiaoqiao was thinking about her family members who had no news.

Qiaoqiao shook her head gently: "Grandma, I don't think about my family, I just..."

"Grandma, you said at the beginning that this jade pendant was a clue for me to find my family. Then you said... is there a jade pendant with the same shape in the world?"

Grandma picked up the jade pendant in Qiaoqiao's hand.

She looked at this jade pendant without a mouse. There was a phoenix totem on it. The craftsmanship looked very exquisite, and it was only about the size of a thumb. It could depict every detail, which was exquisite.

It's just that such a jade pendant is said to be unparalleled in the world, but it is naturally impossible!

Grandma smiled bitterly and said: "This thing looks very exquisite, but in fact it is hard to say whether there will be a second one in the world!"

"When you were young, this area of ​​craftsmanship was very developed, and many of them were machine-carved, so... I can't really answer your question!"

Grandma asked: "What, you saw exactly the same thing?"

Listening to grandma's words, Qiaoqiao started thinking.

Indeed, my grandma used to be a jade carver when she was young, but as she got older, she could no longer see clearly, so she retired and did not continue doing this kind of work.

Now even she couldn't guarantee it, and there was also the aspect of mechanical progress, so Qiaoqiao's doubts were quickly dispelled.

"No, I'm just curious!"

Qiaoqiao smiled and did not tell the truth.

She was just worried that if she told the truth, her grandmother would definitely find out the truth.

If this is a misunderstanding, wouldn't it be embarrassing?

Of course, Qiaoqiao has already decided in her heart that since it is not a clue to find her family, it is also a kind of fate.

After all, the two orphans were both wearing the same jade pendant. Such a coincidence was minimal.

"Silly girl, don't think too much. This jade pendant is worth a lot. Your family must have been rich at the time!"

"If they are looking for you, there will definitely be many ways to find you!"

"But they didn't come to you, so they must have their own reasons."

Grandma reached out and rubbed Qiaoqiao's head and said with a smile.

Qiaoqiao was already familiar with these words and could only nod obediently.

She doesn't expect her family to find her, she just wants to know why they abandoned her in the first place.

This answer is a knot that she has been unable to untie in her heart.
