Chapter 164 Harmony Days
“Oh, you bring gifts? Levi, why didn’t you stop her?” Zack smilingly accepted the gift from Ruby, and gave Levi a scornful look.
Levi had an innocent look on his face and didn’t say anything.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
“It’s not anything of value.” Ruby explained.
“The value is not important, I’m already happy that you’re here. Hurry up, come in and have a seat, don’t just stand there.” Zack happily greeted the two of them.
He said it didn’t matter, but he was so happy that he carried the gift bag tightly, fearing that someone would snatch it away.
“Grandpa, what did sister-in-law send you! Show me.” As Zack had just gone back to sit down, a young girl suddenly leapt over, snatched the gift bag the old man was carrying and opened it.
Inside was a square wooden box, a long wooden box and two other delicate glass jars containing a colourful candy-like pill.
“Hey, sister-in-law, why did you give my grandfather two jars of sugar? He’s diabetic and can’t eat sugar, so it’s better for me to have this candy.” The girl grabbed the two jars and was about to stuff them inside her pocket.
“Serena, put it down!” When Zack saw that his gift had actually been intercepted, he became furious and went over with a furious face, snatching back the two glass bottles from Serena Sharp’s hand.
Serena looked at him with bewilderment: “Grandpa, that’s candy, you can’t eat it, why don’t you give it to me? Give me one, Just one.”
Serena had a sweet tooth and had loved all kinds of sweet things since she was a child. The two bottles of candy looked delicious and her mouth was watering.
Zack glared at her fiercely and scolded in no good mood: “Buy it yourself, why are you even robbing old people of their things? This one is a meeting gift from Ruby, it’s mine! Oh, and your grandmother’s.”
When the old man finished, noticing the look in his wife’s eyes, he added.
“You can’t eat that, if you want, I will send it to you some other day.” Ruby looked at Serena’s aggrieved look and felt inexplicably amused.
As soon as she heard that from Ruby, Serena jumped up: “Really? Really? Wow, sister-in-law, you’re really great! I’ve decided, from today onwards, you’re my new idol! I like you the most!”
“Can I eat this candy?” Zack covered the inside of his pocket and looked at Ruby.
“That one is not sugar, but you can eat it as if it were sugar. You can only eat one a day, and after three months, just change it to one a week.” Ruby explained seriously to Zack.
“If it’s not candy, what is it? Sister-in-law, is it some kind of treasure?” Serena was the most gossipy and came over with a face full of curiosity.
“It’s refined from various medicinal herbs for Grandpa and Grandma, it’s all for strengthening the body and enhancing immunity and resistance.” Ruby was afraid that Zack would really eat it as candy later, so she explained it extra seriously.
“So it’s medicine, I thought it was sugar. If it’s medicine…” Serena was about to say that she wasn’t going to eat it, but Ruby continue speaking again.
“If you want, I’ll make you some detox and beauty ones later, they work pretty well.”
“Detox and beauty? Sister-in-law, then can I look as pretty as you after I eat it?” Serena was instantly interested.
Ruby looked at Serena.
Serena was actually very beautiful, with bright and beautiful features, the kind of looks that can easily impress people, especially the pair of her innocent eyes.
The atmosphere in the Sharp family was very good, and Serena looked like she was raised in love, with a naive and simple personality.
“If you want to look as pretty as her, you can go get a facelift.” Before Ruby could open her mouth, Levi spoke sarcastically in a cool voice.
Serena covered her face and looked at Levi with a face full of aggression, “Brother, how can you say that? Am I still your sister?”
“No, you are my cousin.” Levi answered very dryly.
“Grandpa! Look at him! He’s bullying me again!” Serena went over to Zack sadly to complain.
The old man laughed that his eyes narrowed into a line, allowing Serena to hug his arm and pamper while he gave Levi a reproachful look, “Don’t always bully your sister.”
“I was asking her to recognise the truth.” Levi replied indifferently.
Ruby looked at Levi with some surprise. She remembered that Levi was always cold, and always had a business-like attitude towards everyone. She had only seen that he had different attitude towards Amelia, but it was not like this presenting.
It seemed that Levi had a really good relationship with the Sharp family, which was why he could remove his defenses and reveal his true nature in front of them, right?
“Well, old man, don’t always talk to the kids, it’s time to eat, so let’s start the meal. Talk after the meal.” Vivian, who had not said anything, only spoke slowly at this moment.
As soon as she spoke, Zack ran over to her and helped her up: “Hungry? Let’s eat them. I’ve asked the kitchen to make you your favourite sweet and sour fish and braised large meatball, but you mustn’t be greedy, just eat a little, got it?”
Zack helped Vivian up, his eyes gentle and his voice, speaking as if he were coaxing a small child.
“I’m not a child. And when have I been greedy? You’re the one who’s greedy, don’t eat too much later, be careful with your health.” Vivian glared at Zack and let him support her as they stumbled towards the dining room.
Seeing that, Ruby could not help but think of the time when Grandpa was still alive.
At that time she was still young and he was close to her grandparents, so after her grandfather’s accident, her grandmother became ill.
If Grandpa hadn’t had an accident, their family would be as harmonious as the Sharp family was now.
“What are you thinking about? Let’s go.” Levi suddenly grabbed her hand.
The man’s palm was broad and somewhat warm, wrapping around her tiny hand. Ruby couldn’t help but look sideways at Levi, looking at the side of his good-looking face, his gentle eyes, her ears somewhat became rosy.
For the first time, she felt that it felt good to be holding hands with Levi in this way.
By the time the two walked to the dining room, everyone else was already seated.
Zack had reserved a place for them, just to his left.
Levi pulled Ruby over to sit down, and the kitchen had already started to serve the food.
