Is it fun? Why did the old lady laugh so happily when she heard it.
And Li Man also asked directly, "It sounds like a tragedy, isn't it?"
"Sad? Not sad, hehe, that woman got married later, and followed the officials who helped her to avenge her grievances. The two later gave birth to a pair of children. It's alright." The old lady said happily.
Pfft—Li Man almost choked on the melon seeds in his mouth, Qin Xianglian and Baogong? Oh no, the story is not that, but it sounds so weird.
Sure enough, there are wonderful screenwriters here too
After listening for a while, Li Man was still confused about what was sung in the play. On the stage, there was a man with a colorful face kneeling down to a woman in plain white clothes, as if begging for something.
Seeing this, the old lady laughed again, "Look, that man regretted it, hmph, what's the use of regretting now? What did he do back then, he's heartless."
Some of the little girls in front of her also echoed the old lady's words.
It was only then that Li Man noticed that these little girls were not very old, and the biggest estimate was about the same as him. The youngest was about twelve or thirteen years old. They were all well dressed and looked good.
It's just that, on this hot day, no matter how beautiful the clothes are, it's hard to hide the sweat. There are two faces with a little makeup, but they don't know how to make excuses.
Li Man was stunned, the old lady wouldn't miss it, right? still…
"Oh, girl, I haven't introduced you yet." The old lady seemed to have just remembered a few girls, and introduced to Li Man with a smile, "Her name is Mei Fen, and her name is Mei Xue. They are two sisters. They are..."
One of the girls in pink and the girl in blue got up together, and then nodded towards Li Man. Although they didn't know who Li Man was, they saw that the old lady treated her so intimately, and she The old lady had no scruples in front of her, so she was a little more respectful.
But the old lady hadn't finished the introduction, so she didn't seem to remember, so she asked Guanshi Zhang next to her, "Are the two relatives of my wife's natal family?"
"It's not the two of them? They are the young ladies of the Hou family, this..." As he spoke, Zhang Guanshi personally introduced a girl in green clothes, "This is the real niece of the wife's natal family, Miss Wu'er."
The little girl named Wu'er got up immediately, and Li Man realized that she was quite tall, taller than her. She saw Wu'er smiled coquettishly, her voice was crunchy and had a childlike voice, "Old Madam, why did you forget me again? Wu'er is sad."
"Hehe, little boy, don't be sad, you know, my old lady is getting old, her eyesight is bad, and her memory is even worse." The old lady smiled, and ordered Manager Zhang to introduce other girls.
Manager Zhang then introduced two older girls, who also had makeup on their faces, but it was a bit fancy.
"This is Miss Li's family, and this is Miss Mo's family."
Zhang Guanshi's introduction was very simple. The two girls also stood up and nodded to Li Man.
Li Man also politely wanted to stand up and return the gift, but was stopped by the old lady, "She is your sister Man'er."
"Sister Man'er?" The little girl Wu'er looked at Li Man up and down, and saw that she was beautiful, but she was dressed in coarse cloth and the workmanship was not very good, so she asked suspiciously, "Which family is Miss Man'er from? I've never seen or heard of it."
"Heh, how old are you, what can you see?" The old lady smiled, and now, the maid came over with two bowls of ice cream.
The old lady ordered someone to put it on the small table, and then, she took a bowl and handed it to Li Man, "Heat it up, and it will cool off after a bowl."
"Yeah." Li Man would not refuse something delicious, and besides, it was really hot.
She picked up the small spoon and took a spoonful to eat.
On the side, those little girls immediately cast strange glances at her, jealous and puzzled.
During the half day since they came, the old lady didn't even give them a maid to serve them, except to invite them to listen to the opera, and even served some melon and fruit snacks.
They had never eaten what Li Man ate, but it looked delicious.
"Old lady, is this ice cream?" Wu'er asked with a lovely smile.
The old lady smiled and replied, "Yes, your brother Jing asked someone to get me some from Dayue Kingdom, and I haven't been willing to eat it yet."
"..." Everyone was suffocated, the old lady was reluctant to eat, but gave it to Li Man, could it be...
Everyone looked at Li Man obviously wrongly, full of hostility.
Li Man also felt it, and it seemed a little bad to eat ice cream by herself in front of so many people.
"Why don't you eat it too?" In her eyes, ice cream is just delicious, but it's not a rare item, so everyone looked at her, and she thought they wanted to eat it, so she was willing to share it.
But she invited her with kind words, but was misunderstood by those little girls as a silent provocation and demonstration, and they couldn't help but turn cold.
Li Man only felt baffled, and also had some doubts about the old lady's actions.
The old lady said, "Sister Man'er invites you to eat, you just eat, this is not much."
Those little girls choked for a moment, then giggled and said, "Sister Xie Man'er." But none of them were willing to answer.
The atmosphere became awkward.
Li Man is really inexplicable, she came to see the old lady, why...
"Grandma, I've heard enough about this play, why don't we sit in another place." She still wanted to make things clear to the old lady.
"Well, I've been sitting for half a day, so I should walk." So, the old lady helped Li Man up.
In front, the little girls got up one by one.
"You all sit down, you don't need to wait on me, and continue to listen to the play." The old lady ordered, only supporting Li Man, and slowly leading her to a shady path.
None of the serving maids around her brought it with her. Apparently, the old lady seemed to have something to say to Li Man.
Li Man thought so, so she didn't speak first, but after waiting for a while, the old lady didn't speak, she was a little anxious, "Grandma, there are some things I don't quite understand."
"Oh." The old lady seemed to know what she was thinking, took her hand, walked to a stone bench in front of her, and sat down slowly, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Li Man sat down next to her, and said straight to the point, "Grandma, I told you, don't worry too much, and don't get angry."
The old lady nodded, squinting and smiling at her.
Li Man also smiled, "Speaking of it, maybe it's because of me, but I'm really curious, why are you so kind to me, grandma?"
"How am I treating you?" the old lady asked back.
Li Man froze for a moment, then nodded, "In some respects, it's really good." If it is ruled out that there are other relationships behind this goodness.
The old lady smiled softly again, "Girl, don't you deserve my kindness to you?"
"..." Li Man frowned, her words were too vague.
The old lady sighed, and continued, "Well, to tell you the truth, you look very similar to an old friend of mine."
"Old friend?" Li Man was curious.
The old lady thought for a while, and then said, "Actually, it is a bit exaggerated to say that she is an old friend, but it is true to say that she is my benefactor. Remember what I told you that day, you are the first person I have ever met in my life. Two beautiful girls, right?"
"Then your old friend is the first one?" Li Man asked.
The old lady nodded, "Well, but I only saw her once that year, and she was about your age at that time, or even younger, but her appearance was very similar to yours, even more refined."
"Ah?" Li Man touched her face instinctively, so similar to herself? Could it be that the woman is related to the deity
"Then she is now?"
The old lady shook her head, "I don't know."
"Eh?" Li Man didn't know what to ask for a moment.
After a pause, the old lady said, "She has saved my Zhang family's life, but it's a pity that I couldn't repay it. I saw you by accident in the vegetable market that day, and I thought... But, thinking about it, that's impossible." .”
Li Man came to her senses, "So the old lady mistook me for a benefactor? Then..."
"Oh, don't worry, I don't think you are a benefactor. Of course, it is true that you are like her, and it is true that I like her. On the other hand, you are indeed a good girl. It is worthy of my kindness to you."
"But," Li Man bit her lip, and continued, "Grandma, don't be so nice to me in the future, otherwise, I don't feel at ease."
Especially after listening to her reasons, it feels like taking advantage of others.
The old lady laughed, "Then what should we do? The two of us will not communicate anymore? Are you despising my old lady?"
"Where?" Li Man frowned, "But I can't come to your place every day, I have to do things no matter what, I will come to see you when I have time, okay? Don't let Auntie Zhang go out to find me all the time. , It's not easy for her on a hot day."
"Hey, little girl, you only love Aunt Zhang, and you don't feel sorry for Grandma and me?" The old lady seemed dissatisfied, "Don't you think, it's not easy for me to ask you to come out to listen to a play in this hot day?"
Huh? Li Man glanced at the theatre, and suddenly smiled, "It's not easy for you? I think it's not easy for those little girls?"
The old lady suddenly laughed, "Did you see it?"
Li Man almost bit her tongue, "Isn't it? Did you really trick them on purpose?"
Why
"They all want to be my granddaughter-in-law, how can I do it without suffering?" The old lady smiled slyly.
Li Man stared at her in astonishment, seeing her childish and mischievous smile, she couldn't help laughing too, "I want to be your grandson-in-law, isn't it good? Didn't you want to call your grandson a wife for a long time?"
"Hey." Speaking of this, the old lady sighed heavily, and stared at Li Man resentfully, "Yes, why didn't you show up earlier? Otherwise, you would be my grandson-in-law. Let me tell you, my grandson It's really one in a million, not as good as yours, handsome in appearance, good in character, very filial to me, you also followed him, and you will only enjoy happiness in the future."
Hearing what the old lady said seemed to be true, Li Man rolled her eyes secretly, and when she finished speaking, she laughed and said, "Well, but, I already have four husbands, you are willing to let you be so nice Grandson Qu as the fifth child?"
Who knows that the old lady's words are not shocking, "What's the matter? I'm afraid you don't want it, but if you want it—"
"Ah, bah, bah, bah, pretend I didn't say it." Li Man never expected that the old lady, who is quite old, would speak like a child. She said those words teasingly, but she just went along with it. up.
The old lady laughed loudly, "Look, I frightened you, I know, you are afraid of your husbands."
"
Who is afraid? "Li Man said with a guilty conscience.
The old lady just laughed, "Boss Zhang told me when he came back. Don't worry, don't steal their wives. I, I actually like your temperament. I talk to you right-tempered, unlike those over there. I knew beforehand how to pretend, whether it’s good to eat or not, and I’m so full of heart, how can their little tricks still fool my old lady? Besides, Jing’er is getting bigger, although I’m worried about him Marriage is not so rigid, it has to be decided by him, if he meets someone he likes, I will naturally fulfill it."
"Oh, then you asked me to come today? Just to listen to an opera?" No matter how you look at it, it seems that you are deliberately annoying those little girls.
The old lady grinned, "That's not it, it's mainly because of boredom, you said you've heard that play several times, what's the point, and the little girls can't talk, so stay in front of me, one scene to the left Brother, the brother Jing on the right is trying his best to be good, hey, think about it, I am worried about my grandson, why did I recruit these people."
It seems that the old lady's grandson is not as good as she said, at least if he is too attractive to women, it is not very good.
"Oh, what is the old lady worried about? It's because your grandson is very attractive, why don't you marry them all back." Li Man couldn't help teasing when she saw the old lady's worried mouth but a smug smile in her eyes.
The old lady shook her head, "I don't care, it's just that bastard, who doesn't want one, and is annoying to be entangled, good guy, dump them all to me, the old lady, and let me be the villain."
"Eh?" Li Man thought again, the old lady found herself, "Grandma, you found me again, do you want me to be a villain again?"
The old lady giggled, "That's not true, but with you here, it can make them a little self-aware, don't think that they are all angels, as long as they like it, others will have to go to the pole to ask for it."
Li Man didn't understand what the old lady meant. Since she didn't like it, she could just refuse it. Why did she make such a move to embarrass those little girls
While chatting, Manager Zhang came over from there and replied, "Old lady, the young master is back."
"Why don't you come back? I've been listening to operas for three days, so send them away soon," the old lady said.
Manager Zhang smiled, "Young master said, I'll come over to listen to the play with you after changing my clothes."
"Oh?" The old lady's eyes immediately filled with smiles when she heard the words, and she couldn't help but said, "Is he here to accompany me? Or..."
Just about to say something, she looked at Li Man next to her, swallowed the rest of her words, supported Li Man's hand, got up and said, "Go, Man'er, I'll take you to see Jinger later."
