Immediately, three students came up and surrounded Xie Jiagan. Seeing that his grandson was about to be beaten, Chef Xie could not stay any longer and immediately rushed forward.
This time, Qi Lin did not stop him and even followed him. âWhat are you brats doing? Do you want me to call your teacher out to see what youâve done?â
Xie Jiagan also saw Chef Xie and shouted unnaturally, âGrandpa, why are you here?â
âIf I hadnât come, I wouldnât have known you were actually bullied in school. Why didnât you tell Grandpa?â Chef Xie asked with heartache.
Previously, he had noticed that his grandson was injured from time to time, and there were tears on his clothes.
However, he always said that he fell when he was chasing his classmates or when he was picking up bird eggs from a tree.
Chef Xie knew boys were mischievous, and it was inevitable for them to tussle with each other from time to time. He did not expect the truth to be like this.
He looked at his grandson, who was as thin as a stick. Although the clothes he was wearing were not patched with holes, they were washed. It was obvious that he had worn them for a long time.
Looking at the others, while their clothes couldnât be said to be brand new, their colors were still bright.
No wonder his grandson was looked down upon and ordered around. What was the point of his persistence, then?
Xie Jiagan saw Chef Xieâs eyes turn red and was at a loss for words. Soon, tears fell.
When the fatty and the other three saw Chef Xie and Qi Lin, they already had the intention to retreat. They immediately ran away when they got a chance. âLetâs talk about it when we get home,â Qi Lin said.
âYes, letâs go home.â Chef Xie took a deep breath and pulled his grandson into the carriage.
Seeing this, Qi Lin did not say anything else. Instead, he drove the carriage to Chef Xieâs house.
In the car, Chef Xie did not ask anything after he sat down. Instead, he hugged his grandsonâs small body tightly.
Seeing this, Xie Jiagen raised his head and called out uneasily, âGrandpa.â
âWhy didnât you tell me?â Chef Xie asked.
âGrandfather, your health is not good.â After Xie Jiagan said that, he lowered his head.
Chef Xie did not say anything to that.
When they reached home, he called out to Qi Lin, âCome have a sit.â
âAlright.â After Qi Lin finished speaking, he tied the carriage to the door and followed him in.
After sitting down, Chef Xie poured him a glass of water and said, âThank you for today. Otherwise, I wouldnât have known that my grandson had suffered so much outside.â
âI also discovered it by chance when I went back last time.
âThatâs why I think that if you really want to give your grandchild a promising future, you should try your best to give him a stable life first.â
âCan you ask your mistress if itâs possible that we donât have to sign a death contract? Iâll come over if we can avoid that.â
âIs it to let your grandchild take the imperial examination?â
âYes, this child likes to read. I canât ruin his future because of a job.â
âI heard something today. Let me tell you.â Qi Lin then told him about Li Sheng and his son. âI heard that Xiao Yue got into the elementary school in the spring. âNow, he had officially entered an academy for his studies.â
âReally?â
âWhy would I lie? My mistress has always asked for sincerity and will not force anyone.â
Chef Xieâs heart was shaken when he heard that. He looked at his grandson, who was practicing his calligraphy seriously in his room, and finally nodded. âAlright, as long as it doesnât affect my grandsonâs future, Iâll accept this job.â âThatâs great.. When are you going to cook some dishes for your interview?â
