145 Preparing to get married
She wanted to look at him, but one of the organs in her body was really uncomfortable, which made her turn sideways and vomit. Zhong Yisheng was beside her and gently helped her carry it.
A few minutes later, the two came out of the bathroom. happened to bump into a maid who came to clean, and the aunt looked at both of them with round eyes, and her face was frightened + incredulous. Immediately, the aunt stiffly adjusted her facial expression, pretended not to see the two, and turned around with her own sanitary tools and left. The speed of the time is more than twice as fast as when it came.
Although the aunt didn't say anything, both of them are people who have cultivated the psychology of micro-expressions, and the expression of the aunt just now is clearly the panicked appearance of encountering adultery. Lin Ai and Zhong Yisheng glanced at each other, and they both saw full of helplessness in each other's eyes.
After vomiting, it was indeed much more comfortable, so Zhong Yisheng took Lin Ai's hand, and the two walked to the garden near the pond. The Zhong family's mansion is the place where the old man Zhong lived after retiring, and the fashionable old man Lin is different, the old man loves to be clean, and the entire old mansion of the Zhong family is built according to his preferences......
Lin Ai couldn't help but think that if she could have a future, when she was old, she would also live in such a place, and at that time, if Zhong Yisheng was still by her side, then the two old men would be able to snuggle together and watch the sunset, and they would have no regrets in life.
The two walked to a turquoise pond, where Old Man Zhong sat on a stone bench under a tree, and a set of tea sets were placed on the stone table.
Old Man Zhong didn't look up, he was pouring tea at this time, and when he felt the two of them coming, he said, "Sit down." β
Both sat down, neither of them speaking first. Old Man Zhong poured the tea and handed a cup to Lin Ai first.
She bowed her head and took the teacup with both hands. Intuition told her that Old Man Zhong wanted to say something to her.
Sure enough, Old Man Zhong let out a long sigh: "Time is not forgiving. He looked up at the pond covered with lotus leaves, and grief flashed in his cloudy eyes, "I think back then, your grandfather was also a hero with iron bones." Not to mention the heroism of killing the enemy, this majestic strategy also makes me unable to catch up. Back then, me, your grandfather, the one from the Kong family, and the father of the emperor, the four of us guarded the four major military regions. β
"But now......" He paused, this pause was thirty seconds, Zhong Yisheng and Lin Ai didn't speak, waiting for his next words, "But now, among the four people, just me, an old bone, is still alive." β
"But I know my own body, I fought in the early years, and I had a lot of hidden diseases, and I have had attacks in the past two years, and I may go one day, old man."
"Grandpaβ" Zhong Yisheng began.
But the old man waved his hand and signaled him not to speak: "Just listen to me, an old man, nag well, there will be no chance in the future." β
"I always thought that your grandfather would be the last one of us to leave, but who knew that half a year ago, he also went. We made an appointment that whoever dies in the future will not go to each other's funerals. I am afraid of touching the scene and causing more trouble. In the future, although I can't go, let Yisheng go instead of me, go to your grandfather's grave for me to say hello, and say that I miss a few of them, let them wait for me below, and I will soon go down to accompany him. β
"Grandpa Zhong, don't say that, grandpa often said when he was alive, people who can come down from the battlefield are all people chosen by God, and if you don't die, there will be blessings in the future, and your blessings haven't been enjoyed yet, so don't think so much."
This made Old Man Zhong laugh heartily: "The little girl has a heart." Yisheng can be with you, and I am relieved. β
After that, his eyes were cold, and he didn't know what he thought: "What those people who chew their tongues outside say should be listened to as a deaf ear, if those people deceive people too much, our Zhong family is not easy to mess with." "The people who chew the root of the tongue that Old Man Zhong said are those who say that Lin Ai's brain is not good and his mental illness is not good.
As early as half a year ago, when Lin Ai came to the Zhong family for the first time to attend the birthday banquet of Old Man Zhong, some people chewed their tongues openly and secretly, and these words naturally fell into the ears of Old Man Zhong. Although others are old, they are not blind in their eyes or ears, and whether a person is stupid or not, he can see it according to these three or two sentences. This little girl seems to have light in her eyes, and she is shrewd.
Lin Ai nodded, taking it as a response. This well-behaved appearance won the eyes of Old Man Zhong again, and the more he looked at Lin Ai, the more satisfied he was. This granddaughter-in-law can not only help her grandson, but also look good. He was relieved.
"I fully approve of your marriage. When are you going to get your license? These words were said to Zhong Yisheng, and he was looking at his grandson's reaction. Because of his grandson, he knew that even if he asked him to go on a blind date before, he was reluctant, and now he took the initiative to bring someone back, I don't know if he had some bad idea in his heart to fool him, a dizzy old man.
"The sooner the marriage certificate, the better, I've seen the days, and everything is right today." Zhong Yisheng bowed his head, his face was serious, and he couldn't see any superfluous emotions. However, Old Man Zhong can be regarded as having a sharp eye, although he can't see what kind of feelings his grandson has for Lin Ai, but he can feel that Zhong Yisheng is interested in this matter. Since this is the case, then he is also relieved.
"Good. The old man will make an exception today. With that, he took out a black elderly machine from the pocket of his tunic and dialed a string of numbers, and soon, the other end was picked up: "Hey? Zhong Lao? There was seven points of surprise and three points of surprise in the man's voice.
"Yes, it's me." Old Man Zhong said to the other end of the phone, "Xiao Zhao, my family Yisheng is applying for a marriage certificate today, I don't know that it is inconvenient for your Civil Affairs Bureau." β
"Convenient, of course!" Xiao Zhao on the other end asked again, "When does Head Zhong plan to come?" I'll arrange for people. β
"Don't bother, just go through the process."
"Oh yes, I understand." The man's voice was obviously a little excited, and he was obviously flattered to be able to make a phone call from the founding father, Old Man Zhong, and his blood was concentrated in his brain, and he couldn't react a little.
"That's hard for you, today on Saturday and Sunday, I asked Yisheng to bring two pieces of candy over."
"Don't bother, don't bother, these are the things that should be done."
In a few words, Mr. Zhong and Xiao Zhao ended the call, the three of them slowly tasted tea for a while, and when the time was about the same, several people returned to the living room of the villa together. At this time, it was almost noon, and Aunt Ma had already prepared lunch, so she waited for someone to come back and serve the food.
"It's time to eat!" Aunt Ma served the last dish, and quickly beckoned the three of them to sit down, she turned around and retreated, and in the empty living room, only three people were left around the dining table.
None of them are talkative, so the meal is quiet.
In the afternoon, Zhong Yisheng took Lin Ai away and learned a lesson, and Lin Ai didn't dare to eat too much at noon.
After getting into the car, Zhong Yisheng drove away from the vicinity of the Zhong Mansion quickly.
"Let's go to Lin's house and get your household registration book."
"Okay."
Returned to the Lin family's mansion, the Lin family's mountain villa was deserted, and the Lin family, except for the old man Lin, were all people who liked to be pure, not to mention that there was an accident, and no one lived in the huge house, so Lin Ai asked the housekeeper to dismiss most of the servants, leaving only the housekeeper who guarded the old mansion.
"Miss! You're back! When the old housekeeper saw Miss Lin come back, his eyes were red, and he was about to cry.
"What are you crying on a good day, uncle?"
The old housekeeper hurriedly wiped away his tears: "I, I saw that the young lady was too excited. He burst into tears and laughed, "It's good that Miss is back!" Just come back. β
"How long will you stay this time?"
Lin Ai shook his head and patiently explained, "No, uncle, I'll leave later." I'll come back and get the household registration book. As she spoke, she pointed out Zhong Yisheng to the old man, "I'm getting married, his name is Zhong Yisheng." β
"Is it the Zhong family's one?" The old housekeeper was the one who followed Old Man Lin to the battlefield at the beginning, so he also knew the Zhong family. One of the descendants of the Zhong family is particularly famous in the contemporary military industry. He had heard this man's name from the old man more than once, and he was a good person.
The old butler moved his lips several times, but finally failed to speak.
"Uncle, don't worry, he's very good to me."
Zhong Yisheng also stepped forward: "Hello, uncle, my name is Zhong Yisheng." I am serious about marrying Lin Ai, and I will protect her in the future and think about her, please rest assured. β
Zhong Yisheng's attitude was already so sincere, the old housekeeper finally put his mind at ease, he smiled with relief, and glanced at the two of them: "Okay, you guys are waiting downstairs, the household registration book was originally collected by me, and I came to find the household registration book." The old butler poured two cups of hot tea for the two of them, and went upstairs himself.
After a while, the old butler came down from upstairs, holding the household registration book in his hand. He put the notebook in front of the table: "That's it, miss, you take it, you are the only one in this notebook." As he spoke, the old butler choked up a little in his words, and his eyes were already half red.
"Uncle." Lin Ai said softly, "If you don't have this house, I'll give it to you, and you can take your grandchildren and grandchildren to live there." "In this huge house, he is the only one who lives, empty, no one to talk to, this is a trivial matter, in case something happens to his body one day, faints in the villa, no one finds out, this has become a big problem!
"No, no, no!" The old butler's attitude was very resolute! "This house belongs to the Lin family, I'm just a part-time worker, and I can't accept it!"
"Then, uncle, do you want to lock this house, and go home and be with your family, and enjoy your old age in peaceβ"
"Miss, are you trying to drive me away?"
"No, uncle, I didn't mean that." Lin Ai glanced at the old man with gray sideburns, "You watched me grow up, and in my heart I already regard you as half a relative, how could I drive you away." It's just that this house is so big, it's too lonely for you to live alone. β
Zhong Yisheng was listening beside him, and he suddenly said: "Otherwise, I don't know if it is convenient for your children to be uncle?" Where to work? β
When the housekeeper heard this, he replied, "I only have one son, and I am in the local construction business. β
