erneath him, clutching her horns tightly."Be careful." I cautiously reached out to him.I wanted to hit him, but I couldn't reach him. He turned his head and glared at me, coldly saying: "These little...We immediately got up and gave way, I felt the old master's condition was not right, how did he seem to have aged a lot
He walked trembling with his cane, Greedy Wolf carefully supporting him. His voice was especially raspy!
Could it be that the long journey and changes in climate have led to illness
"Who is this" Old Man Lin looked at us.
"This is my dad's grandfather, my great-grandfather, the oldest one in our family." I replied.
Old Man Lin politely stood up and nodded his greeting. Grandpa trembled slightly before returning the courtesy, then motioned for everyone to sit down and speak.
"Lin's young master," the old man said, startling all of us.
Although according to seniority, Mr. Lin's father would definitely be "younger" in his eyes, the man is now a Vice President!
The old man revealed a kind and amiable smile, and slowly said, “As an old man, I'm about to die, but I didn't expect to see the Lin family in my twilight years…”
Lao Lin showed a puzzled expression. What's wrong with the Lin family
“When I was young, I had the fortune to meet your grandmother, Madam Zheng. Back then, she entrusted me with something to keep safe. I intended to give it to her descendants, but since your family holds a high position, I couldn't find an opportunity to see you. Unexpectedly, heaven has its own ways. In my old age, I have this chance encounter with you…”
Lin Lao's expression was full of surprise. He looked at my grandfather with great respect and respectfully asked, "Grandpa, is what you said true My grandmother is indeed named that!"
A sly gleam flashed in Grandpa's eyes, and I suddenly understood—his trembling was all an act!
Someone in their nineties who still spends all day coddling his wife in a closed room, how could he possibly be resigned to death, trembling like that! It's all an act!
Under Lin Lao's persistent questioning, Grandpa slowly told an old story.
Lin Lao's father participated in the revolution at a young age. His mother, Zheng Shifu, and their family were captured by traitors and taken to be sold for reward. My grandfather was still a dashing (a bold and daring) low-key bandit at the time, and he intercepted them halfway.
It is said that these were the families of workers, peasants, and soldiers. The old master took good care of them, gave them some money, and sent a few people to escort them north across the river.
At that time, there were some things that were inconvenient to take away, so I entrusted them to my grandfather. My grandfather then handed them over to my grandmother to keep. Later, during the chaotic times of war, we were constantly fighting. By the time the country was founded, we were separated and unable to contact each other.
My grandfather was very shrewd. He knew that after the country's founding, there would be a day of reckoning, so he washed his hands of his past early on, changed his name and moved far away to become a virtuous and charitable "poor peasant."
In the basement, those skeletons were people who had dealings with him in the past and wanted to dig up his treasures. They were trapped and killed by him. However, there was no evidence to prove it. They said they dug up a mass grave, and who could investigate further
After the old story was finished, Mr. Lin couldn't contain his excitement any longer.
We never expected that grandpa still had this up his sleeve!
Old Lin sighed and said, "Grandfather, thank you for your righteousness back then. I did hear about this from the elders, but finding a benefactor is too difficult; I've long since lost track of him. I never expected there to be such a connection!"
The old master spoke in a feeble voice, "Young Master Lin, you don't practice Taoism or believe in cause and effect. However, from our perspective, heaven has its own order, while human hearts are ever-changing. We are not driven by ambition for power or wealth. If it weren't for the bond between Fan'er and your daughter, I would have taken this matter to my grave and never spoken a word to anyone."
The Mu family wasn't some prestigious and influential clan that could hold their head high. They just wanted to live a peaceful life in seclusion. At first, we—including Fan'er herself—didn't want to get involved with the Lin family.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
"But... ah... matters of the heart, even a person can't control themselves... Fan'er just happens to have eyes for your daughter. What can we do about it Hee hee... If Fan'er was being unreasonable, we would have 'upgraded' long ago, wouldn't we"
...The men of the Mu family are indeed all alike.
Mr. Lin's attitude towards my grandfather was obviously different. He nodded and agreed, "Yun Fan is a good child... Grandfather, I wonder if Grandma has anything entrusted to you When are you convenient, I'll send someone to pick it up and bring you a gift as well."
“Ahem, no need to rush. After some time, I’ll return and search for it. Let Fan’er send it to you then.”
Old Lin hesitated for a moment before immediately understanding his grandfather's meaning. He nodded and said, "Alright, I'll have Yan Qin accompany Yun Fan to your estate to retrieve it."
Hmm... this is so subtle, what does this mean Did he allow Lin Yanqin to "recognize her family" at the Mu residence
The next step after acknowledging the door, isn't it crossing the threshold
Grandfather glanced at us: "See, you young whippersnappers are useless! You've been turned down for marriage three or five times already!"
It's time for old me to step up!
We are incredibly impressed! It turns out divine assistance is right here!
Just as Old Man Lin left, my brother immediately went to Grandfather and started cooing at him, making Grandfather so exasperated that he picked up his cane and whacked him.
"A bunch of trash, Humph! Can't even get a wife! The men of the Mu family are really getting worse and worse! Back in the day—"
Back in the day, you were armed to the teeth, carrying fireworks and colorful gifts, kneeling before your great-grandmother with heartfelt sincerity. Then, you "married" her in a way that was both invited and forceful, ascending the mountain like that, weren't you
"Well, times are different now." My dad and brother said in unison.
The old man took a sip of tea and, with an air of commanding the landscape, said: "Next time that Qinyin girl comes to visit the Mu family, I will gather all our relatives and welcome the young mistress into the family. When this news spreads back, the Lin family will have no choice but to agree to this marriage. Then, following his instructions, you two can organize an auction through your company, sell off a few troublesome items, and then donate them to the state for cleansing. After that, we'll prepare for the wedding."
My brother was hugging grandpa and about to give him a kiss, when grandpa slapped him aside: "Old man, paving the way for you is considered exhausting myself. Hurry up and give me more little girls and boys! It's the greatest joy in my life to see children before I die, sigh..."
I secretly nudged my older brother and said with a smile, "Master Mu, you have a young mistress now! Hurry up and coax the child out to please Grandfather."
"Go away, go away, you people who failed to get pregnant, have the nerve to talk about me!"
"I already have two bottoms!"
"Two are enough You can't just wait around and have ten or eight. There are so many elders up in the ninth heaven, all eagerly watching! You need to have more babies, so they have someone to play with!"
Ten or eight!
This is a problem. Jiang Qiyun has never said how many children he wants.
Now that Old Wang has cast a spell on Old Lin, making him sign some kind of document, we should deal with him quickly. Only then can we properly consider this matter.
Jiang Qiyun hadn't shown up for two days, and it was estimated that many things were waiting for him to arrange.
Old King's position also needed someone to temporarily replace him. The upper realm and the underworld issued edicts to investigate and remove his position along with all relevant personnel. They were removed from the divine register of heaven and hell.
When I saw Jiang Qiyun, it was already the third day at dawn.
Before dawn, he suddenly appeared in the room, propping his chin with one hand as he lay behind me and asked, “How is it that you are still here”
"...Lost in games, neglecting cultivation.""Don't talk nonsense, I've seen all sorts of monsters and ghosts… Humans are even more disgusting than monsters! Hey, you drive the car to the side gate..." She directed my brother to take a detour."W...
