Li family.
"Old man, Miss Feng is here. She said she just came back from England and came here specifically to see you."
Mr. Li sat back on the recliner, raised his eyebrows, and hummed. In a blink of an eye, he saw the figure walking in from the door. He smiled politely and said, "It's not in vain that Mingzhu calls me Grandpa Li. Grandpa." If something happens, you will never ignore it, unlike those in our family who are busy in the Li family on weekdays, or simply travel around the world, and never say they want to come back to see me more."
Feng Mingzhu said with a smile: "They are really busy. I couldn't make it back in the first half year. I heard that Grandpa Li, you have been in the hospital for a long time. I have heard people say that at your age , a stroke is just a hurdle. Once this hurdle is over, you will definitely be able to live a long and lively life. Grandpa Li, you can at least live with us children for another twenty or thirty years. .”
Mr. Li suddenly laughed: "This kid is sweet-talking. Twenty or thirty years? I'm already in my eighties now. It's enough to be able to leave without any illness or pain. I don't want to lie down all day and not be able to go anywhere. I'm so sick." There is really no need to live crookedly."
Feng Mingzhu smiled and sat on the bedside and talked to him for a while. It didn't take long for her to deliberately bring the topic to the matter about Li Nanheng and her little sister's tomb.
When the old man heard her mention this, the smile in his eyes did not change: "Don't worry, your sister's tomb has entered our Li family after all. No matter who Nan Heng marries in the future, she is already a member of our Li family. No matter in name or in all aspects, we will never let her be a wandering ghost wandering alone."
"Grandpa Li, the three-year period is almost over. Does Nanheng have any other plans for the next step?" Feng Mingzhu directly introduced the topic.
Mr. Li leaned on the recliner and smiled, looking at her: "What? You haven't put it down yet?"
Feng Mingzhu curled her lips lightly: "Everyone has an obsession. Nanheng is my obsession. No matter how long it takes or how far I go, I can't let it go."
Mr. Li smiled again and said, "So you came here this time because you want me to help you make arrangements. After these three years have passed, do you still want to have something with Nan Heng?"
"If there is still a chance between Nan Heng and I, I can really do anything for him, Grandpa Li. I also really want to call you grandpa with him in the future. Normally, Nan Heng and the Li family The cousins are all busy, and when you get older, you also need to have juniors around you. As long as I marry in, the Li family will be my home. I can always be by your side, grandpa, to make you happy and talk to you." Feng Mingzhu said with a sincere face: "Besides, everyone thought that Nan Heng was marrying me at the beginning, and it is indeed difficult for me to marry into other families now... Grandpa, the relationship between the Feng family and the Li family has always been We are so close, so you should help me think of a way to create more opportunities between Nan Heng and me."
"Haha, what you said is pitiful, okay, old man, I also like you as a girl, and I don't want to cut off contact with the Feng family in the future. If you have this intention, Grandpa Li will take this matter to heart and look back. Let’s have a good talk with Nan Heng.”
"Grandpa Li, you also know Nan Heng's attitude towards me. I'm afraid just talking about it will be of no use... This matter still needs to be arranged."
Mr. Li raised his eyebrows: "How do you want to arrange it?"
"Look, can you give me a chance to appear next to him..."
Mr. Li paused, thought for a while and then said: "Hey, by the way, let's not talk about it for now. The last two times Nan Heng came back, he didn't mention the fact that the three-year agreement was about to expire. In the past three years, he He didn't specifically mention your sister's matter, but when he came back this time, he did say that when three years are up, he would not consider getting married again for the time being. After all, it was equivalent to a ghost marriage before, and there shouldn't be anything in the short term. The girl is willing to marry into the Li family, and he said that he is happy to live in peace and quiet, so he can just live by guarding the child's tomb. These are Nan Heng's exact words. I think he doesn't have much interest in girls. I'm here If I arrange you to be with him at this time, I'm afraid you won't get a good look."
"Nan Heng... is that what he said? Wasn't he reluctant to marry Yi Guanzhong before? Has he been waiting for the three-year agreement to end?"
"He used to be reluctant, but recently I see that he is not reluctant at all. His face is full of spring breeze. Even going to the ancestral hall to burn incense for his little wife feels like celebrating the New Year."
"New Year's Eve?"
"Even though he seems to be in a good mood, I still don't understand why he deserves to be so happy about going to burn incense for his little daughter-in-law." Mr. Li sighed as he spoke: "But this is okay. Well, at least it means that Nan Heng doesn't mean to be a burden to your sister, and you, the Feng family, can feel more at ease."
Feng Mingzhu was stunned.
Why isn't it a burden
How much happiness did her sister who died young hinder her from growing up? Now it's hindering her marriage. Finally, after three years, she can completely get rid of her shadow. However, the Li family's attitude obviously does not think that her sister's tomb is something worthy of taboo, and they have no intention of getting rid of it. This burden meant that even Li Nanheng seemed to be planning to only marry this kind of wife in his life.
What should she do
Just now, Grandpa Li clearly promised her to help her make arrangements...
But now the situation has changed. Just because of Li Nanheng's recent attitude, does he no longer intend to help her for the time being
Feng Mingzhu wanted to say something else, but then the mobile phone next to Mr. Li rang. He glanced at it, raised his eyebrows immediately, and said with a smile: "Oh, this brat, you can't even remember to call me in eight hundred years." The phone call came just a moment after I left."
Hearing that the call should be from Li Nanheng, Feng Mingzhu stopped talking and sat quietly listening.
After the old man answered the phone, he raised his eyebrows. It wasn't until he hung up the phone that he looked at Feng Mingzhu thoughtfully.
"Grandpa Li, what did Nan Heng say on the phone? Is he in the United States or somewhere recently? Or... is he still at Base XI recently?" Feng Mingzhu asked with a gentle smile on his face.
Mr. Li didn't speak immediately, he just put the phone aside, then pulled up the thin blanket covering his legs, and suddenly said: "Mingzhu, the girl named Feng Ling from before came out of XI Base Have you told anyone other than our Li family about those things?"
The smile in Feng Mingzhu's eyes suddenly dissipated a little, and she asked with a stiff expression: "Who are you from outside the Li family?"
