Old Man Bai called Lin Le, and sure enough, Lin Le agreed with surprise, and he ran back with satisfaction to continue discussing Lin Le's problem with his granddaughter.

"Su Su, then let's settle it, you go out with Lin Le to have a good break! When you come back, grandpa will surprise you! ”

Old Man Bai's acceptance of Lin Le was obviously faster and took less time than Lin Hai at the beginning.

Bai Soho didn't answer, and was frustrated to consider whether he should run away early.

Old man Bai is not in a hurry, the old god is waiting for his granddaughter to compromise and make the right choice.

But it didn't take long for the housekeeper who hurried over with a solemn face to break the deadlock between the old and the young.

"Master, the old man of the Xiao family, has passed away."

Old Man Bai's body shook, almost suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears: "What did you say?" ”

The housekeeper lowered his head with some embarrassment: "The old man of the Xiao family had another heart attack today, and he didn't have time to send it to the hospital, so he won't work...... Now, basically everyone who should know knows. ”

The old man stood up suddenly, and the wrinkles on the old man's face were trembling.

Bai Suhe also stood up, and at this moment he could clearly feel the sadness of Old Man Bai from the bottom of his heart.

"Xiao Junji, why are you like this...... Just left......" Old Man Bai muttered to himself, the pathos in his tone could not be concealed.

Bai Suhe had never heard of the name Xiao Junji, and he had no way of knowing the relationship between him and Old Man Bai, but yesterday he heard the name of the Xiao family at his father's funeral, and he saw a middle-aged man with a strange face, and he didn't know what his relationship with Xiao Junji was. She stepped forward and silently supported Old Man Bai, waiting for his most shocking and sad moment to pass.

There were almost tears in Old Man Bai's eyes, but he quickly pulled away from his extremely low feelings and faced the reality: "Has the obituary been issued?" No, I'm going to see it for myself! ”

"Master, don't worry, wait for the obituary to be sent out, you can go again!"

Old Man Bai waved his hand and insisted: "No, I'll go now." You immediately call Bai Chengyuan and ask him to hurry home and go with me, as well as Su Su. Come with me! ”

Bai Suhe nodded hurriedly, and no longer cared about going back to City A.

The housekeeper glanced at Old Man Bai worriedly, but he had to hurry to comply.

"Grandpa, then you wait, I'll let someone come and accompany you. I'm going to change my clothes. Bai Soho helped Old Man Bai sit down, this is a funeral, her dress up to go on a date, it is definitely rude to go to Xiao's house.

Old Man Bai nodded, but took her hand again.

"Susu, it's all grandpa's fault, in fact, grandpa originally wanted to hold a banquet for you to officially appear in front of people, but now, he asked you to attend such occasions one after another. You, don't blame grandpa...... Grandpa just wants you, instead of your father, to give him a ride...... He didn't come yesterday, I should have thought about it, he hasn't been in good health......"

There was deep pain and remorse in Old Man Bai's words, his lips trembled, he was almost incoherent, he wanted to say this, he wanted to say that, and the countless sadness that came up in his heart just wanted to say it together.

He was busy with his own family affairs during this time. It's been a long time since I've seen this old friend, I didn't see him yesterday, and I didn't ask much, which made him regret it even more!

Bai Suho somewhat understood: "We and the Xiao family." Affectionate? ”

"It's not just that the friendship is very deep...... Our Bai family once encountered a crisis that was almost wiped out, it was Xiao Junji who came forward to save our Bai family, and in their political circles, many people have friendships with our Bai family, but only Xiao Junji. He really has a relationship with me, when your father had an accident, he also helped me find it all over the world, all these years, that is, he still remembers to comfort me from time to time, and other people have forgotten your father...... You should call him grandpa...... At our age, there are fewer and fewer companions......"

Bai Suhe turned around and patted the back of Old Man Bai's wrinkled hand lightly, soothing him: "Grandpa, you are sad in your heart, I know that I won't mind these things, the elder died, I should have visited and condoled, not to mention that Grandpa Xiao has such a great favor to us." ”

No matter how many disagreements and disputes she had with Old Man Bai before, she still has the surname Bai on external issues.

What's more, she really doesn't care, the people in the circle to whom the Bai family belongs basically saw the same at her father's funeral yesterday.

And what she is most worried about now is that Old Man Bai only sent away his most beloved son yesterday, and today he has to face the death of his old friend, such a continuous blow and sadness is undoubtedly a great harm to Old Man Bai's body.

She silently decided in her heart that when she returned to City A, she would wait for Old Man Bai's love during this period to pass and her mood calm down.

When Old Man Bai and Bai Chengyuan, who hurried home from the company, took Bai Suhe to Xiao's house together, the news of the death of Xiao Junji, the biggest pillar of the Xiao family, also spread throughout Linhai, and many people paid attention to it.

The old man of the Lin family had just accepted his grandson's apology and repentance, and he was relieved in his heart, and before he could care about being happy, he received the news, and his heart sank again.

He and Xiao Junji both belong to the early old qualifications, but he has always been in the army, and Xiao Junji is in politics. Although the intersection is not deep, it belongs to the same group of people, and there are usually many contacts between the two families.

Now, hearing the news of Xiao Junji's death, in addition to being sad, he can't help but feel a little sad in his heart, they are all old, and the remaining days are getting fewer and fewer day by day, but these juniors in the family are still so ignorant, it's really reassuring!

Thinking of this, the relief brought by Lin Hai's honest admission of mistakes just now suddenly dissipated in his heart.

Old Man Lin thought about it, called Lin Hai over again, and instructed him: "Call your brother, you take him to the Xiao family to have a look-by the way, don't go in when you get there, this face injury makes people see maybe there are some rumors, your brother has never been to the Xiao family, you mainly want to introduce him to the situation of the Xiao family, and some things to pay attention to." Your dad and your second uncle and I will go again tomorrow. ”

Speaking of this, regardless of Lin Hai's stunned expression, he took the opportunity to educate him again: "The old man of the Xiao family has passed away, and the future of the Xiao family will be difficult to say in the future, and now, except for the Xiao family's daughter Xiao Ranran who married the Gu family, the Xiao family is basically insulated from our circle." Xiao Junji's death, the Xiao family will not have any confidence in the future, look at it, if you still can't take it. Reckless and capricious, then thirty years later, the fate of the Xiao family will be the end of our Lin family! ”

Lin Hai didn't care to listen to Old Man Lin's teachings, so he only nodded his head in agreement, but his mind had already flown to other places.

Xiao Ranran's father died. Wouldn't Gu Lei be even more unscrupulous in the future?

His mood was a little complicated, he was a little sympathetic to Gu Lei marrying someone he didn't like, but now he was a little embarrassed by Xiao Ranran's clearly visible results.

Several families in the upper echelons of Linhai City are reacting to Xiao Junji's death, while the ordinary people in the lower strata have no reaction except for seeing a sentence on the TV news that so-and-so notified him that he died of illness and so-and-so went to mourn, after all, Xiao Junji is too far away from them, and they are not familiar with it.

There is only a luxuriously decorated room in the community, a woman with exquisite makeup but a haggard look. Staring at the photos of Xiao Junji on the TV news, he was stunned for a long time, and suddenly burst out laughing.

"Dead, Xiao Junji is dead? Haha, finally dead! ”

Zhao Qianqian was shattered by Gu Lei's blow, and her desperate heart came to life in an instant!

Who Xiao Junji is, ordinary people may not know, but she knows it very clearly!

She can't remember what the specific official position is, she only knows that it is a character, but these are not important, the important thing is that this person's daughter Tian shamelessly forcibly snatched the man and life that should have belonged to her!

She knows Gu Lei's difficulties. She didn't want to live the days of being on the streets like that, so they had to compromise and let Gu Lei marry the daughter of this old thing!

Originally, the location of the Gu family's wife, who was infinitely beautiful and pampered. It should have been hers, but it was occupied by that shameless woman for seven years! In the past seven years, she has been an underground mistress who has no husband, no home, and even her own children. can only be beaten one after another, she has been enduring, and she has endured until now Gu Lei asked her to kill their third child!

But now that the's father is dead, and that old thing is dead, what else does she threaten Gu Lei to live with her?

She finally didn't have to endure it anymore!

Zhao Qianqian stroked her lower abdomen with a smile on her face and whispered: "Baby, we can finally endure it anymore, you can finally be born!" ”

When Gu Lei arrived at Xiao's house, the people of the Xiao family had already dressed Old Man Xiao properly and was about to be sent to the funeral home for cremation.

Gu Lei, as the son-in-law of the Xiao family, is also a new political figure in Linhai City, and the Xiao family has always been very polite to him.

Seeing him coming, they all greeted him with red eyes, and no one cared about why he appeared at this time. Gu Lei didn't have the heart to deal with it, his eyes were only looking for Xiao Ranran in the noisy crowd.

But Xiao Ranran's figure was never seen, he finally got impatient and grabbed his eldest brother: "What about Ranran?" Where did she go? ”

Xiao Ranran's eldest brother, Xiao Mingming, pointed to the main hall where the old man was suspended: "She's guarding her father's side." ”

Gu Lei didn't care about greeting his eldest brother anymore, and went straight to the main hall.

As soon as I entered the door of the main hall, I saw a thin and lonely figure kneeling beside the deceased old man, motionless.

Gu Lei's heart was suddenly pinched fiercely.

She has never been talkative, and she must still be sad and can't speak.

The heart that had been rushing also calmed down, and he slowed down and walked over.

"Yes...... Dad's good, why ......" He was a little weak, and there was a trace of indescribable guilt. Looking at the noisy crowd outside, his father-in-law passed away, but he seemed to be the last to arrive, which was really ......

Xiao Ranran slowly turned his head, his thin and pale face, a pair of big red eyes looked bigger at the moment, and he was almost scary.

She didn't get up and threw herself into her husband's arms to cry, nor did she accuse her husband of showing up after she had called so long, she nodded politely to Gu Lei as always, and explained: "You're here...... There is a bit of chaos at home, can you bear with me...... Dad had a heart attack, and he couldn't do it if he wasn't sent to the hospital. ”

Gu Lei looked at her indifferently, but it was obvious that she had cried for a long time, and wanted to step forward and hug her tightly to comfort her, but after Xiao Ranran said these few words, he turned his head again, quietly looked at his father who seemed to be sleeping peacefully, and never spoke again.

Gu Lei was a little at a loss and a little annoyed.

This woman, when has she been so cold, rushing over to hug him and crying to him, can she die?

He was about to make up his mind to say a few words about Xiao Ranran, but his mobile phone rang.

He swallowed the accusation that came to his mouth, took out his mobile phone and looked down, and his face immediately changed.

The grumbling of the heart suddenly turned into a full of emptiness.

He glanced at Xiao Ranran: "I'll go out and answer the phone......"

Xiao Ranran nodded imperceptibly.

Gu Lei almost escaped out of the main hall, found a place where no one was around, and looked around again before picking up the phone.

"Why are you calling again?" His tone was particularly irritated.

Zhao Qianqian, who was overjoyed on the other side of the phone, was not angry at all, but giggled.

"Gu Lei, I tell you good news, don't worry, this is really good news!"

Gu Lei's eyebrows were gloomy: "Say what you want to say!" ”

"Have you heard, that old thing is finally dead!" There is a vicious female voice in pleasure. "Gu Lei, we finally don't have to endure it anymore, Xiao Junji is dead, I saw it on the news, it's true!"

"You hurry up and divorce that woman, and leave immediately, so that our baby doesn't have to be born with the reputation of an illegitimate child, and we can be a husband and wife in the open, you say, isn't this good news!"

Gu Lei was only stunned for a moment, and then became furious: "Are you sick in the brain!" ”

In the past, when he was with Zhao Qianqian, Zhao Qianqian also said that it would be great if there was no old thing like Xiao Junji, at that time, because of the guilt of Zhao Qianqian, he laughed and ignored it, but now, his father-in-law was lying there, and his wife was crying with red and swollen eyes, Zhao Qianqian's words sounded particularly harsh and vicious!

Divorce, how could he divorce Xiao Ranran, especially at this time!

Gu Lei took advantage of Zhao Qianqian's time when he yelled at her and couldn't answer for a while, and told her bluntly: "Don't give me cranky thoughts, I can't divorce at this time, and I won't leave in the future, you give me the heart to die as soon as possible, and deal with things well!" ”

The female voice on the other side of the phone was full of disbelief: "Xiao Junji is dead, you even refuse to divorce that?" Gu Lei, are you reluctant to her, do you not love me anymore? (To be continued.) )
