Chapter 024: Beat Mandarin Ducks
"Secret?" Effie couldn't help frowning, what secrets could such an innocent, cute and funny grandmother have?
Suddenly, she seemed to remember something, her frowning brows were gone, and she could see a little excitement between her eyebrows. I saw that she hurriedly took Long Yan's hand and asked excitedly, "Is that secret related to the great benefactor of your family?" ”
She remembered that Long Yan had mentioned to her that there was a great benefactor in their family when she was in high school, but as for the name of this great benefactor, whether it was a man or a woman, where the family lived, what kind of work he did, etc., etc., she didn't know anything.
She thought it was strange at the time, how could she treat her benefactor like this, and say that she was a great benefactor, which was too insincere. So she thought that Long Yan's grandmother was just a childlike child, and casually made up a fictional person to come out and stunned Long Yan.
But I didn't expect that there are really people!
However, soon, Long Yan confirmed her conjecture "by doing".
After listening to Effie's words, Long Yan immediately shook Effie's hand excitedly, showing amazement and admiration, and a pair of very smart starry eyes flashed there, "Xiao Ai, your memory is really good!" I seem to have only mentioned this to you once in my freshman year of high school, but you still remember it now, and you still think about it! ”
As soon as the words fell, Long Yan immediately thought of the "family photo" drawn by Effie from memory, and the amazement and admiration for her in her heart were like a surging river.
"So what kind of kindness does Queen Feng have for your family? What does this have to do with your engagement to that prince? Effie asked in confusion as she got straight to the heart of the question with her friend's eager "attention".
Hearing this, Long Yan slowly let go of the hand holding Effie and withdrew her eager gaze.
Following her gaze slightly, she looked at the corner of the rescue station in the forest, and then sighed softly, and then said slowly, "Well, I don't know where to start, this story is a bit complicated, and the age is a bit old......"
It turned out that Long Yan's grandmother and Long Yan's grandfather were beaten by Long Yan's grandmother's family, and the last was Long Yan's grandmother's good friend Feng Xianxian who contributed money and efforts to help them run privately.
Grandpa Long Yan was a teacher in a private school back then, and Grandma Long Yan was his student, and the two were secretly in love at that time, and later the two made promises to each other, vowing that they would never abandon each other in this life.
But it's a pity that Grandma Long Yan's parents disliked Grandpa Long Yan because he was an orphan and a poor teacher, so they strongly opposed them being together, and they also agreed to a local bully for Grandma Long Yan.
That bully has long coveted Grandma Long Yan's beauty, so of course he will not give up on Grandma Long Yan's elopement with his grandfather, and with his strength and financial resources at that time, if he really wants to chase and beat Grandma Long Yan and Grandpa, I am afraid that it will not be so easy for the hard-working little mandarin ducks to elope.
As a result, Feng Xianxian, who was only sixteen years old at the time, the same age as Long Yan's grandmother, and who was both beautiful and wise, stepped forward and offered to marry the local tyrant and bully, but the premise was that he was not allowed to take a concubine.
If Grandma Long Yan's appearance belonged to the level of Allure at that time, then the appearance of the Phoenix Fairy reached the level of more than the Allure Country.
Such a beautiful thing, of course, the local tyrant and bully who have a soft spot for beautiful women readily agreed. He thought that if he took a concubine after the rice was cooked, the Phoenix Immortal would not be able to help him, but what he didn't expect was that a year after they got married, the sacred wind of monogamy had blown all over this land of Shenzhou. No matter how heroic the local tyrant is, he can only accept it helplessly.
Ten years later, Feng Xianxian, who has long held power and highlights her strong woman's true character, gave her husband half of the shop management rights and the deed of the big house on the condition of divorce, but their only daughter was raised by her, and her surname was Feng.
The local tyrant who had been forced to be pure for many years immediately readily agreed, and soon after the divorce, he married a new person and entered the door. However, I heard that in less than five years, almost all the shops left to him by his ex-wife Fengxian Xian were all destroyed by him, and the local tyrants were only left with soil, and they could no longer be proud.
Impatiens sold half of her shop and left the area with her three-year-old daughter, Phoenix, to start a new life.
After that, Feng Xianxian with her ingenuity and keen business sense, began her history of going north, and in the following decades, she has been single and has not remarried, relying on her own hands to successfully create her own career kingdom, since then proud of the world, has become a well-known business legend.
In other words, if there was no Grandma Feng's sacrifice to help back then, then there would be no happiness of grandpa and grandma, and there would be no me today. That's what grandma meant by kindness. ”
Long Yan summed up later.
