Chapter 40: The Death of My Grandfather
Cheng Mo saw that Lu Guanlan was pretending again, and he couldn't help laughing in his heart, but his face was straight, "For the sake of you and I being old acquaintances, I will be the master of this matter for you." It's just that I don't know, what does Master Liu and Mrs. Liu think? ”
Master Liu couldn't speak, but he also came back to his senses, and just reached out and pulled the sleeve of the old lady on the side.
The old lady understood, and hurriedly saluted Chengmo and said, "It's all up to Your Highness to decide." ”
Liu Hanqi was in a cold sweat on the side, but his mouth was still stiff: "You call this person His Highness, he is really His Highness?" Then I said that I am still the emperor, could it be that I am also the emperor? ”
Lu Guanlan sneered.
Originally, Cheng Mo was just cutting off family affairs for them, but as soon as Liu Hanqi said this, it was disrespectful, and he only had one dead word in the end, which can be said to be self-inflicted.
Sure enough, Cheng Mo's brows furrowed, and his face suddenly darkened, "Since you love to talk nonsense like this, then you won't be able to spit out half a word from now on!" ”
Cheng Mo's slender fingertips lifted slightly, and he saw the black-clothed leader pick up the knife on the ground and walk in front of Liu Hanqi.
Liu Han couldn't stop trembling when he got up, and even trembled even more when he spoke, "You······ You ······"
"Cut out this guy's tongue, beat him with a lame leg, and throw him into a beggar's den," Cheng Mo ordered.
Before everyone could see it clearly, they saw that the black-clothed leader's blade carried a gust of wind, pinched Liu Hanqi's chin, and pried Liu Hanqi's mouth open, and then, a piece of Yin Red fell out of Liu Hanqi's mouth.
Liu Hanqi had his tongue cut out, covered his mouth full of blood and wailed, blood flowed out of his fingers, which looked particularly terrifying.
Liu Chengyan saw it in his eyes, and his crotch was also wet, and he felt paralyzed and couldn't stand up.
Rao is old man Liu and old lady Liu saw this scene and was stunned in place.
Fang didn't enter the door, and he hadn't seen the scene of murder yet, although the corpse was lying on the ground, the second elder had also seen some of the world, so he wouldn't be frightened.
But now that I see it with my own eyes, I still feel that it is too bloody.
Seeing this, Lu Guanlan hurriedly glanced at Ah Li, and Ah Li came back to her senses from this terrible scene, and hurriedly pushed the old man's wheelchair with one hand and helped the old lady to leave with the other.
Liu Hanqi was still rolling on the ground, and the black-clothed leader stepped on Liu Hanqi's knee again, and he heard the bone snap and break.
Liu Hanqi couldn't stand the pain, and suddenly rolled his eyes and fainted again.
At this moment, the front hall, under the mess, is even more red.
But Lu Guanlan never showed timidity from beginning to end.
Cheng Mo has been paying attention to the change in Lu Guanlan's expression, and is a little curious, what kind of heart does this little girl have, and in the face of such a killing, there is no trace of turmoil in her heart?
"What do you want to do with the rest of this?" Cheng Mo raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Liu Chengyan.
Liu Chengyan's deathly eyes were suddenly filled with panic, and he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to Lu Guanlan, "Cousin, for the sake of our acquaintance for many years, you can do it, spare me!" There will be no next time! ”
Lu Guanlan's face finally changed, and he looked at Liu Chengyan, his face was full of disgust.
"Could it be that these pickled things your father did really have nothing to do with you? Do you think others can't see those thoughts? Lu Guanlan sneered and slowly walked to Liu Chengyan.
"I don't want you to harm the woman of the good family again, I think, let's let you clean yourself today," Lu Guanlan turned around.
Cheng Mo suddenly admired Lu Guanlan's ruthlessness, such a punishment method is really poisonous.
Even so, he nodded at the black-clothed leader.
Listening to Liu Chengyan's howl like killing a pig, the sound was quite loud, and it shook Lu Guanlan's ears a little painfully.
"Your Highness, I look a little noisy, if it's noisy with the neighbors, it's not good," Lu Guanlan frowned slightly, and his tone seemed to be coquettish, but it was like she was the one who gave the order.
Cheng Mo smiled and shook his head, and when he looked at the black-clothed leader again, the leader had already understood what he meant, stretched out his hand and knocked Liu Chengyan unconscious, and then led someone to clean up the corpse in the house.
Lu Guanlan watched these people move quickly, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
In the end, he was raised by the prince's side, but he really has the ability.
After disposing of Liu Hanqi, Lu Guanlan wanted to go back and talk to his grandfather for a while, and was about to bow to Chengmo to retire, when he saw Ah Li suddenly running from the backyard.
Lu Guanlan looked at her with a panicked face, and his heart couldn't help jumping.
"Miss!" As soon as the young lady spoke, tears flowed from Ah Li's eyes.
Lu Guanlan had a bad premonition, and there was a little more panic in his eyes.
Ah Li sobbed, with a cry in her voice: "Grandfather······ Go! ”
Lu Guanlan was stunned, his body staggered, and he was supported by Cheng Mo on the side.
Her lips opened slightly, and she didn't say a word for a while.
Cheng Mo didn't expect this old man to go so suddenly, so he said, "Take your young lady quickly, I have something to do outside." ”
Lu Guanlan only felt in a trance.
When Ah Li dragged her grandfather's yard, she was very sad to see the maids standing outside the door, wiping her tears.
There was no movement in the room, as if it was empty and no one had entered.
Lu Guanlan stood at the door for a long time, and she didn't come back to her senses until Ah Li called Miss softly.
Pushing open the door, the room was quieter than outside, so quiet that you could hear her footsteps and hear her grandmother's sobs inside and outside.
Lu Guanlan walked slowly inside, and she saw her grandfather lying on the bed, covered with a layer of white cloth.
She walked to the edge of the bed, crouched down, reached out and shook her grandfather's hand that was hanging by the side of the bed, and tucked the lifeless hand back into the quilt.
The big hands that were warm a moment ago are now chilling.
"Your grandfather, he left you a suicide note," the grandmother sat on the side, staring at her grandfather with a blank gaze, and slowly took out a letter from her sleeve.
Lu Guanlan's eyes were dim, and he took the suicide note with both hands, trembling slightly.
She opened the envelope, spread out the letterhead, and looked at the handwriting on the letterhead, as if her grandfather was standing in front of her again, laughing with her, and talking to her—
"Guanlan, since your mother left, my body has become less and less good than before. I know that time is short, and I miss you in Beijing. Without your mother's protection, how unsatisfactory your life should be in the house now. I also know that your mother is not doing well.
She often said in her letters that her husband is very good to her, and you are also very well-behaved and filial, and she is content. But I know that your father had already raised a concubine outside.
It's all my fault, it's me who shouldn't have let your mother marry your father.
It's too late to regret it, and I'll never have a chance to make up for your mother.
After so many years, she rarely came back, and I thought that she should hate me, hate me for being a cruel father, and forcing her to marry someone she doesn't like, regardless of what she thinks.
But now, I'm going down to accompany Yun'an, I just hope that she will walk slowly in front of her, so that she can wait for my old father.
If she is willing, I will be a father and daughter again in the next life, and I will surely follow her heart and make her happy for the rest of her life.
Guanlan, in the future, this ticket number and the ancestral business of the Liu family will be handed over to you.
If your father treats you badly, you can come back and not be the daughter of his Lu family.
My granddaughter, live happily and live this life well for yourself. ”
After reading the letterhead, Lu Guanlan was already in tears.
She clutched the letter tightly and rubbed it in her heart, as if to fill in the missing heart in her previous life.
If it weren't for Song Yuemei, how could she not know in her previous life, it turned out that she was also missed like this, she was loved like this, and she was expected to be like this.
It turns out that there are also people who just want her to live for herself, and just want her to live this life well.
But how stupid she was in her previous life, she humbly begged in front of those things that were inferior to pigs and dogs, just to get a little warmth.
In her previous life, her mother passed away, and she was never loved again.
She had long forgotten what it was like to be loved, and she had long been numb to endure the cruelty to her.
But even so, her hope was dashed at the last moment when her life was exhausted.
That's why she hates like that. She hated those people, and she hated herself.
Grandpa wants her to be herself, but how can she do this.
"Guanlan," at this time, the grandmother suddenly spoke.
She turned her head to look at her grandmother.
Grandmother smiled at her, stretched out her hand, and stroked the hair on her forehead, "Seeing that you are so alone now, your grandfather and I are very relieved," said Grandmother's hand trembled slightly.
By the time Lu Guanlan realized that something was wrong, his grandmother's old body had already collapsed.
She froze in place, stunned as she watched it all.
My grandmother also went with my grandfather—
Lu Guanlan watched like this, watching his grandmother fall beside his grandfather.
She suddenly remembered that when she talked to her grandmother in the temple, her grandmother smiled and said, "Look at you are so clever now, I don't know which son's son will marry you in the future." ”
She also laughed at the time and said that there was no grandmother in this world who made fun of her granddaughter.
My grandmother said that she was afraid that she would not be able to get married.
Sure enough, I really couldn't see it.
But compared to the previous life, she didn't even see her grandparents on their deathbed, and in this life, she was very lucky to be able to send them to the end.
She straightened up, raised her sleeves to wipe the tears from her face, and kowtowed heavily to her grandfather and grandmother.
When she stood up again, her face was gone, as if it were all a dream, and she had never been sad.
"Burial," Lu Guanlan walked out of the door, his face calm.
The old lady of the Liu family was buried, and the white lanterns were hung in the house for three days, and no funeral banquet was held, and no one came to mourn.
The front hall of Nuoda was full of white flags, and the surroundings were empty, only Lu Guanlan knelt upright.
knelt like this for two days, until the old man and the old lady were buried, and Lu Guanlan's weak body finally couldn't hold on.
When I woke up again, it was two days later.
Ah Li saw that she woke up, and the anger in her heart finally relaxed, "The grandfather and the grandmother have been buried, your body has been really weak for the past two days, and you still have to recuperate." ”
Lu Guanlan's vermilion lips were already pale, but he shook his head and said, "You take this seal to a trip ticket number, get the account book back, and we will go back to Beijing." ”
Seeing that her complexion was very bad, Ah Li couldn't bear it, "Miss, I'm not in a hurry sooner or later, let's rest for two days and then go back to Beijing." ”
Lu Guanlan frowned, "No one has reported to Song Yuemei in the past few days, she must have become suspicious, and she almost sent someone to investigate, if she gets the letter again and finds the killer, we won't be able to leave." ”
Ah Li nodded, took the seal from Lu Guanlan's hand and went out.
The second shopkeeper of the Liu family's ticket number had already obtained the letter from Master Liu, and knew that this ticket number would be handed over to Miss Sun in the future.
When asked what happened next, Ah Li thought for a while and said: "When the young lady returns to Beijing, she will repair the book and the shopkeeper, and then make arrangements. ”
After successfully retrieving the account book, Lu Guanlan set off with Ah Li.
As soon as I left the city gate, I saw a carriage parked in the right room, as if waiting for someone.
Suddenly, the curtain of the car opened, and Cheng Mo smiled at her.
