Chapter 276 Disappointed Deaf Old Woman
The relationship between Li Qin and Yi Zhonghai can hardly be described as good.
The Jia family's initiative to find a partner for Li Qin seems to be somewhat of a move against Yi Zhonghai.
As far as Li Qin knew, the Jia family had always relied on Yi Zhonghai's "protection." Now, weren't they afraid of angering Yi Zhonghai by doing this?
Or is this actually a scheme orchestrated by Yi Zhonghai?
This left Li Qin no choice but to think carefully.
After all, Yi Zhonghai's old silver coin should not be underestimated.
Of course, while Li Qin was on guard, his wariness towards Yi Zhonghai, or rather, the other people in the courtyard, was merely that—warness.
It's not enough to warrant fear.
As long as Li Qin doesn't want to abide by some of the rules of this world, he can solve many problems using magic.
While Li Qin was deep in thought, the simple meal was ready.
Just like any other family, they had simple stir-fried vegetables and simple porridge.
And I chopped some pickled vegetables.
Li Qin led the prepared food out of the kitchen.
Unexpectedly, I saw a familiar figure again as soon as I came out.
The deaf old woman was looking at her walking stick and wandering around the backyard.
A glint of light flashed in the deaf old woman's eyes when she saw Li Qin.
Li Qin also noticed that the other person's gaze lingered on the food in his hands for a while.
However, when she saw that Li Qin was holding a simple meal with no meat at all, a look of disappointment flashed in the deaf old woman's eyes.
The deaf old woman had heard Li Qin cooking in the kitchen and was thinking of using a trick to try and get something out of Li Qin.
That's why I left the room and came to the courtyard at this time.
They said they were taking a walk in the courtyard, but in reality they were just keeping an eye on Li Qin's dinner.
To her disappointment, the meal Li Qin prepared that evening was very ordinary and simple.
The deaf old lady had no interest in stir-fried vegetables, porridge, or pickles.

Hearing the system notification and seeing the deaf old woman's changing expression, Li Qin instantly realized what she was planning and chuckled to himself.
Aside from his intention to poison and exploit emotional power, Li Qinming usually prepares relatively simple meals in the courtyard.
Only after returning home and closing the door would Li Qin take out some delicious food from his storage ring.
The deaf old woman naturally couldn't see anything good.
A playful look suddenly flashed in Li Qin's eyes:
"Is the old lady taking a walk?"
This time, the deaf old woman didn't pretend to be deaf and dumb; instead, she smiled and nodded.
"yes!"
Li Qin then continued:
"Has the old lady eaten yet? If not, you can have some at my house if you don't mind, although there's nothing fancy."
Whether it's corn porridge, a mix of wheat and vegetables, or stir-fried greens, it's sure to fill you up.
Li Qin's words were clearly meant to tease the deaf old woman.
He was almost certain that the deaf old woman would not agree;
Even if the other party agrees, in the end they can only eat the food that he openly prepares.
Upon hearing Li Qin's invitation, a hint of displeasure flashed in the deaf old woman's eyes.
If Li Qin had made something delicious today, the deaf old lady would definitely not hesitate at all and would have agreed immediately.
But what is Li Qin holding now?
Green vegetables, pickles, corn porridge.
Is she someone who lacks these things?
An unpleasant expression flashed across the deaf old woman's face.
But in an instant, it turned into a smile again;
"Thank you for your kindness, but no need. Your uncle will bring me food later."
Although the deaf old woman didn't like the food in Li Qin's hands, she couldn't say so openly. Instead, she had to thank Li Qin.
After all, no matter what, in the eyes of outsiders, Li Qin's invitation to dinner was a manifestation of respecting the elderly and caring for the young. If she spoke carelessly, it would make people think that she was taking advantage of her age or even being greedy.
The courtyard house is not yet a monolithic entity controlled by the deaf old woman, Yi Zhonghai, and others, and their prestige has not yet reached its peak.
They also need to be careful about what they say and do.
Therefore, although the deaf old woman was extremely displeased with Li Qin's invitation, she still had to smile and thank him.
One can only imagine how the deaf old woman must have felt.

Hearing the notification sound in his ear, a satisfied smile flashed in Li Qin's eyes.
All of this was the result of his calculations, and now everything is happening exactly as he predicted, judging from the old deaf woman's displeased look.
As he listened to the notifications about the collection of emotional power, Li Qin felt increasingly satisfied and happy.
However, he then looked at the deaf old woman with a feigned regret.
"It's such a pity. I was hoping to take this opportunity to have a good chat with you, ma'am."
Upon hearing this, the deaf old woman's expression grew even more unpleasant.
She hadn't forgotten that she had tried to approach Li Qin before, but he had instead taken her back.
She wouldn't believe Li Qin's words now that he wanted to get closer to her.
Li Qin also knew that he couldn't fool the deaf old woman in front of him, and he hadn't intended to deceive her in the first place.
His aim was to stimulate the other person, thereby gathering more emotional energy.
As for the effectiveness of his actions, one only needs to listen to the constant prompts from the system in his ear to know that the effect is quite remarkable.

Now that the person has been teased and the power of emotion has been collected,
Li Qin then prepared to go home for dinner;
"Grandma, you can take your time strolling around. I'm going home for dinner now."
After saying that, Li Qin turned around and went home.
When he entered the house, he also closed the door behind him.
The deaf old woman looked at the closed door, and a gloomy expression immediately appeared on her face.
His eyes were full of dissatisfaction.
The gazes directed at Li Qin's family grew increasingly hostile.
However, she also knew that Li Qin was not someone to be trifled with, so she did not act rashly.
The deaf old woman had repeatedly reminded Yi Zhonghai that he needed the right opportunity to deal with Li Qin.
Otherwise, it is very likely to fail.
If she could get Yi Zhonghai to be more patient, she naturally wouldn't be in a hurry either.
The deaf old woman believed that as long as she had enough patience, she would eventually find a weakness in Li Qin, and that would be the time to truly take action against him.
Moreover, once the move is made, Li Qin cannot be given any chance to turn the tide.
We must completely destroy it with one blow.
Only in this way can future troubles be avoided.
Back home, Li Qin heard the increasingly frequent notification sounds and a faint smile appeared on his face.
Li Qin knew very well that his repeated actions had thoroughly made enemies of the deaf old woman, Yi Zhonghai, and others.
He just didn't care.
To him, these people were just toys to pass the time, or even tools to fuel his emotions.
Li Qin casually cast a sealing spell on the room.
In this way, neither the doors nor the windows can be easily opened.
After doing all this, Li Qin took out a large pile of food from his storage ring.
Then he focused all his attention on the delicious food in front of him.
