Chapter 1347: Chapter 1347: Little Song Le Ran Away

Yuan Shanchuan frowned and reviewed it twice. Then, he was very sure that he had indeed seen these beads before.

"Uncle, beads, give them to me." Little Song Le saw him returning, but he kept his head down looking at his little beads and wouldn’t return them, making him a bit anxious. He tiptoed to tug at his sleeve.

Yuan Shanchuan regained his composure, squatted down, and handed the beads to him, then smiled and asked, "Lele, where did you get these beads?"

Little Song Le hurriedly put the beads back into his pouch. He clearly hadn’t forgotten to prepare a gift for Zaozao.

Thus, once he placed the precious beads back, he immediately began rummaging through the pouch.

However, upon hearing Yuan Shanchuan’s words, his actions paused. He lifted his head, blinked at him, and suddenly turned and ran away.

"Hey..." Yuan Shanchuan was taken by surprise and didn’t have time to grab him, watching helplessly as he dashed straight into the living room.

The child seemed to treasure these beads but was unwilling to reveal anything about them.

Oh well, if he doesn’t want to speak, then let it be.

But Quanquan, seeing Little Song Le run off, hurriedly followed him, "Wait for me."

When Little Song Le ran into the living room, the old lady saw him and quickly waved her hand, "Lele, don’t run, there are many people here, be careful not to bump into anyone."

Little Song Le stopped, and Quanquan quickly caught up with him.

Quanquan looked puzzled, "Why did you run?"

He himself didn’t know why he ran, only instinctively doing so when someone asked about the origins of the beads.

Because neither his uncle nor Aunt Yu advised him to show the beads to others or disclose their origin.

Although he didn’t understand why, he knew his uncle and the others wouldn’t harm him, so he listened.

Quanquan saw him in a daze and bumped him, "Lele?"

Little kids are forgetful. One moment they’re asking questions, the next they’re off talking about other things. "I saw a tree branch over there, it seemed quite awesome, shall we go play with it?"

"Yeah, yeah."

The two kids went out hand in hand.

Shu Yu happened to pass by and twitched the corner of her mouth, a tree branch... what’s so great about it?

She shook her head and went inside to find the old lady.

The old lady pulled her to sit beside her and softly asked, "Finished talking with the village chief?"

"Yes."

This time it’s Zaozao’s full month celebration. Though not a grand affair, Shangshi Village’s village chief and two revered clan elders still came over.

Nowadays, the Lu family’s life is getting better, and many people in the village are either working with Lu Erbai or in Shu Yu’s workshop. The village chief and elders all hope to strengthen their ties with them.

With the Lu family having a happy occasion, they would, of course, come to offer their congratulations.

Earlier, when Shu Yu arrived, Fan Zhong came to talk to her.

Shu Yu seldom comes back, and Fan Zhong indeed had many matters he wished to discuss with her, which led to a lengthy conversation that went on until now.

The old lady looked somewhat anxious, "What did he say to you? Did he ask for help? Let me tell you, Yu, if it’s a minor thing, we can manage. If not, you just decline, okay?"

Speaking of which, her voice lowered, almost whispering into Shu Yu’s ear, "Village Chief Fan, although not a wicked person, isn’t exactly the paragon of kindness either. Don’t grant him favors just because he’s the village chief, okay?"

Shu Yu saw the old lady’s serious expression, as if fearing she might suffer losses, and immediately laughed, "Grandmother, don’t worry, Village Chief Fan wasn’t discussing anything difficult."
