The Mo family used to be landlords, and the old mansion was once confiscated. Pen ~ fun ~ cabinet www.biquge.info later the policy changed, and the descendants of these confiscated properties can be recovered from the state. And the Mo family's old mansion happened to be still there, and the Mo family did not directly pursue it, but spent money to buy it back.

The old house of the Mo family was previously located in the countryside, but it has now become an urban-rural junction. Li Sheng's small square at the door was a little trance from this house with obvious southern water town characteristics.

Mo Xiran was already waiting for them at the door, and when he saw them coming, he took them into the house. After Li Sheng entered the door, he found that this house was not small. After the gatehouse, there is a small courtyard.

"The birthday banquet is held in the lobby." Mo Xiran led them through the main hall. "Grandma lives in the backyard, I'll take you there."

Li Sheng followed and walked forward, remembering that there were a lot of cars parked outside just now, and asked, "There are already a lot of guests?" ”

"Well, quite a few relatives have already arrived." As they spoke, they had passed through the courtyard with a pond in the middle.

It may be the first time for Tia to enter such a house, and she can't help but say, "Sister Xiran, your family is really big." ”

Although Mo Xiran invited her several times, she thought that Li Sheng's attitude was unclear, so she never agreed to come. Today is the first time I have seen ancient Chinese architecture.

Mo Xiran smiled and said, "This is the house left by our ancestors. I heard that it has a history of nearly 200 years. But it's only been 30 years since I got it back. During this period, it was expanded and modernized. The lobby was split into a banquet hall with two side halls. Wait a minute, where the banquet will be held. ”

She said as she turned the two of them into one side and said, "Let's go see Grandma first." ”

After a while, they came to the backyard. Mo Xiran led them to the right wing. They happened to meet a middle-aged man and woman coming out of the wing room at the gate of the backyard.

"Uncle of the Qin family, uncle!" Mo Xiran greeted them with a smile.

The man just answered. The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "It's Xiran." Just now, Xiao Hao said why didn't I see you and went to look for you in front. Didn't you see him? ”

Mo Xiran smiled and said, "Cousin Hao? I haven't seen it, maybe I'll fall in love with that young lady again. ”

The aunt smiled and said, "That's okay." My Xiaohao is a good child. However, she didn't seem to have any confidence in what she said, and turned her head to look at Li Sheng and Tia to change the topic and ask. These two are ......"

Li Sheng and Tia are standing together like a pair of golden boys and girls, and she can't ignore them if she wants to. But what she has the most to do with is what is the relationship between Mo Xiran and Li Sheng. Although Li Sheng and Tia are holding hands, Tia looks too young, making people feel that these two are brother and sister.

Not to mention, after Tia put on makeup, she looks like a Chinese girl.

"This is my cousin."

Li Sheng found that although Mo Xiran responded with a smile, there was not much closeness in his words. Since Mo Xiran also planned to introduce, he just nodded and didn't say anything.

"Uncle and aunt of the Qin family are going to the front hall. Let's go to my grandmother's birthday first. ”

When the middle-aged couple heard this, they laughed and said a few words and walked forward.

Mo Xiran took Li Sheng and them into the backyard and whispered, "Brother, if those two people find you just now, don't pay attention to them." ”

Li Shengleng for a moment, just now he just noticed that Mo Xiran was a little cold, and he didn't want to hate it: "What, they offended you?" ”

"They are the third grandmother's mother's family, and it doesn't matter if they earn some money from our Mo family. The kid in his family is a gentleman and playboy who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, but he pretends to be a motivated young man. I didn't bother to care about that, but he didn't look at what he did, and he even pretended to be in front of my parents and pestered me. ”

Li Sheng chuckled and said, "Are you afraid that your parents will have some kind of marriage?" ”

"Marriage will not look for them. A little money is not great. Nor do I look at any virtues. Mo Xiran seemed to be really depressed, and it was the first time for Li Sheng to see her so mean.

Mo Xiran said angrily: "Don't talk about them, I'm angry when I talk about them." We went in. ”

The door to the wing room was open. They walked in, and in the center sat an old lady, dressed in a purple silk dress embroidered with the word "Shou", accompanied by three middle-aged women. One looked to be in his fifties and was a little rich, while the other looked younger and looked no more than forty.

The old lady already had age spots on her face, and her reaction was a little sluggish. Li Sheng remembered that Mo Jingran said that his grandmother had Parkinson's disease, and he thought that this was his grandmother.

Mo Xiran had already called with a smile: "Grandma, second aunt, third aunt, mother." This is Li Sheng's cousin, he came to pay his grandmother's birthday. ”

The old lady looked at Li Sheng, as if she was a little puzzled.

Li Sheng looked at her eyes and pursed his lips, and pulled Tia to the small hall and knelt down. Seeing him like this, Tia also knelt beside him and kowtowed three times. After Li Sheng kowtowed, he still knelt down and said, "Grandma, I wish you a long life than Nanshan and a blessing like the East China Sea." ”

The old lady blinked and spat out a few words: "Good! Have a heart! ”

Li Sheng handed over the gift in his hand with both hands, Mo Xiran took it first, and the old lady said, "Grandma, this is a birthday gift that Cousin Sheng finally found." But I haven't seen it either. ”

The old lady smiled at her, looked at Li Sheng with doubts, then at Tia, and finally at the second daughter-in-law beside her: "These two children are growing up well, which child is it?" ”

Several daughters-in-law of the Mo family knew about the old lady's heart disease, and they didn't know what to say.

The old lady still wanted to say a little dazedly: "You don't remember either?" She said to Li Sheng and Tia with a smile. They are all relatives, and they will have to communicate more in the future. I don't know anyone anymore. ”

Li Sheng pursed his lips and didn't know what to say, so he said after a long time: "Grandma, I am the son of your daughter Mo Zhiting." My name is Li Sheng. ”

The old lady's mouth was open, and saliva flowed out. She just stared at him fixedly.

Mo Xiran hurriedly went to wet wipes to help her wipe the corners of her mouth.

Aunt Li Sheng, who was sitting next to the old lady, hurriedly stood up and stroked her back, and said, "Mom, this is the fifth aunt's child who has come to pay you a birthday." ”

The old lady stretched out her hand and said to Li Sheng, "Child, come here." ”

Li Sheng let go of Tia's hand, walked over quickly, and said, "Grandma." ”

The old lady's withered hand only held his hand, and her mouth trembled several times without speaking, and finally tears suddenly welled up, and she said, "Well, it's all so big." Very good! Very good! She cried as she spoke.

"Grandma, today is your best day, why are you crying?" Mo Xiran coaxed the old lady like a child. "It's not pretty to cry anymore."

The old lady only held Li Sheng's hand tightly, and her eyes did not leave his face for even a second. After a long time, he slowly stopped his tears and said, "It's very similar!" Much like that! Good. As he spoke, he looked at Tia, who was standing in the middle a little at a loss, and asked. Are you a sister to this girl? Why don't you come and show grandma. ”

Li Sheng beckoned to Tia.

Tia walked over solemnly: "Grandma, my name is Tia!" ”

"Tia?" The old lady looked at Li Sheng with a confused expression.

Li Sheng said: "Tia is my fiancée, your future granddaughter-in-law. ”

When the old lady heard him say this, her cloudy eyes shone brightly, and she stretched out her other hand to take Tia's hand, and said, "Okay." Good! It's a good girl. You have to live a good life in the future, you know? ”

Tia glanced at Li Sheng and nodded with a red face.

Li Sheng's second aunt saw that the old lady's mood had stabilized at this time, and hurriedly said, "Mom, you look at the child and make the child ashamed." ”

The old lady smiled and said, "What is there to be shy about the male and the female should be married." She thought for a while, and then said to Li Sheng. This is your second aunt, and that is your third aunt. And your fourth aunt. ”

Li Sheng called people one by one. His second and third aunts both seemed very enthusiastic, but Mo Xiran's mother just responded with a smile. Li Sheng didn't feel neglected either. He knew that this fourth aunt had depression.

The old lady took her hand and asked over and over: How old is it? What does it do? When to get married? ……

Li Sheng knew that the old lady's mind was a little chaotic, and he answered them one by one, without the slightest impatience. Knowing that his third aunt said, "Mom, it's better for Li Sheng and them to go to the front and get close to their cousins, cousins, cousins, and cousins." ”

The old lady looked at her for a moment before nodding and saying, "Yes, yes." It's time to get close and close! ”

Li Sheng and Mo Xiran walked out of the wing, and they didn't know why they were a little blocked. Before he came, he was thinking about how to deal with it. Now that I see people, the resentment in my heart seems to have become superfluous.

Mo Xiran was also sullen. After walking out of the courtyard gate, she said faintly: "Grandma looks confused, but she seems to have guessed ...... sister-in-law."

Li Sheng pursed his mouth and nodded, and said, "Don't talk about this in front of his old man in the future." The old lady came to his hand and asked a lot, but did not ask a word about his mother, her daughter. Maybe she already has the answer in her heart, but she doesn't dare to pursue the answer, afraid that the answer is what she thinks in her heart.

Mo Xiran said: "But let grandma think in her heart, it may be even worse." ”

Li Sheng was silent.

"Brother, you can come to visit her old man more in the future." Mo Xiran was a little sad. She was the youngest of her peers in the family, and the one that the old lady hurt the most. Now that the old lady's health is getting worse day by day, she knows that this is the inevitable stage of human beings, but she still can't let go.

Li Sheng nodded and said, "As long as I come back, I will come back to see her old man." ”

Mo Xiran said again: "Grandma seems to like Tia very much, I will bring Tia back to visit her more in the future, is it okay?" ”

Li Sheng glanced at Tia.

Tia nodded hurriedly. She felt that Li Sheng would not ignore the old lady.

Li Sheng saw her agree, so he said to Mo Xiran: "Then if you have time, take her around more." ”

They walked slowly and talked, and before they knew it, they came to the garden behind the front hall.

"Xiran, are you here?" A young man rushed out of the front hall.

Li Sheng saw Mo Xiran's face sink immediately after hearing this voice. It was clear that the person who came was not her friend or something. (To be continued.) )
