Chapter 115 - Pension
In her impression, her grandfather's hair and beard at that time were not as gray as they are now.
Grandpa will hold her, tell her the formations on the sand table that she doesn't understand at all, and show her how powerful each mysterious weapon is, and after she shows great interest in these, she will tell herself with a serious face that grandpa will definitely think of a way for you to cultivate, sooner or later, one day, you will definitely be able to!
And now, she can really cultivate, but Chu Qianli, who used to have no interest in these sand table mysteries, just likes to listen to her grandfather tell her about these things, and accompanies her more, has completely disappeared from this world......
Just thinking about it, the old general looked at Chu Qianli stunned, thinking that she had not yet come out of the emotions of recalling those unhappy things in her childhood, and hurriedly called Chu Qianli's name to bring her back to her senses, and then mysteriously pulled Chu Qianli to her bed, threw the pillow away, and then pulled off a thin layer of cushions on the bed, revealing a small mechanism, and gently pressing the mechanism, a small piece in the middle of the bed board stood out, revealing a boxy dark grid below, take a closer look, There were a bunch of gold coins and amethyst coins neatly placed inside, the old general carefully took out the money from the dark compartment and put it in a wooden box, and was very satisfied with the heavy wooden box in front of Chu Qianli and said: "Li'er, you see so much money, haha, grandpa is amazing, this money is specially saved for you by grandpa, take it back and put it away!" But don't just take it and don't spend it, it's all yours! Spend whatever you want, don't save it, hahaha! ”
The old general asked himself if he didn't understand the girl's thoughts, but when he was in a bad mood, he went to spend money, which was fine!
That's his savings for many years!
Chu Qianli was holding this heavy wooden box, her eyes were a little sour and moist, this money was not worth mentioning for her now, but for her grandfather, a simple old general who only took money and raised a family, it was really a lot of money......
A lot of money?
Chu Qianli suddenly thought of a question, and asked casually curiously, "Grandpa, aren't all your money in the account room of the mansion?" How did you save all this money? ”
Hearing his granddaughter ask himself, the old general didn't want to hide it, so he smiled a little embarrassedly and replied: "This money is a pension issued to me by the court, hehe, your grandfather and I didn't spend a penny, it's all stored here!" ”
Pension......
Chu Qianli tilted her head a little puzzled and asked, "Grandpa, aren't pensions generally given to the disabled or the families of the deceased, how can they be sent to you?" ”
The old general held his head up a little proudly, as if telling a great thing and said: "Yes, it stands to reason that every time your grandfather and I were seriously injured in the war over the years, the court will send me some condolence pensions after I come back, in fact, those injuries are not serious in my opinion, and they are not missing arms and legs, most of them are sword wounds and knife wounds hit by mysterious weapons, and occasionally they are injured by mysterious techniques when they are sneak attacked, which is not a big deal, but the court is afraid that I will not do it, So every time I get injured, I will get the money from the imperial court, the old man I thought, this money comes from the right, don't be in vain, and I haven't been polite to them, you see, isn't this so much saved! ”
……
Chu Qianli was holding this box of money, and suddenly she didn't know what to say, a mist rose in front of her eyes, but she didn't want to let them fall, so she suffocated them.
Originally, she took the money that her grandfather gave her, just to make her grandfather feel at ease, money, she really didn't lack it, originally she was also going to settle the money with Ouyang Yujin after the auction, so she took out a part of her filial piety to her grandfather, so that he could enjoy the feeling of spending the money earned by his granddaughter, but she didn't expect that today's ......
Grandpa worked hard all his life, and after fighting on the battlefield, in exchange for such a meager amount of money, he was so carefully collected by his grandfather, and then gave it all to her, every money here represents the injury that grandpa has suffered!!
It has already appeared in her mind that her grandfather is in pain, holding the so-called "pension" issued by the imperial court, and happily saving it for herself, everything in the general's mansion is the responsibility of her grandfather, and it is impossible for him to spend all his money on himself selfishly, but he also has a fixed amount of monthly silver, if the second uncle and aunt do not deduct her monthly silver, she is not short of money.
But grandpa still did this silently for himself, at this time, grandpa is no longer the majestic general, no longer the general who kills people on the battlefield without blinking, he is just an old man who loves his granddaughter wholeheartedly, and is willing to exchange all his own for his granddaughter's happy grandfather!
Chu Qianli couldn't help but lie in her grandfather's arms, hugging her grandfather's generous and reassuring shoulders tightly like she did when she was a child, and was gently patted on the back by her grandfather, enjoying the rare quiet time alone with her grandfather and grandson.
To say that she once came to this strange world, Chu Qianli is extremely adaptable and content with the status quo, and accepts the new identity with the mentality of taking one step at a time, so now, she has completely integrated with the identity of "Chu Qianli", for her who has all her memories, grandpa is her grandfather, and the General's Mansion is her home!
Everything here makes her feel that happiness is so unreal but real......
It wasn't until Chu Qianli returned to her yard with a big wooden box and saw the yard that had been cleaned and Yi Junling who was standing there quietly waiting for him, she couldn't control her emotions anymore, put down the big wooden box and threw herself into Yi Junling's arms, wiping her tears willfully like a child, releasing her depressed mood!
The grandfather just now, which made her feel distressed beyond measure, the disappearance of her father and mother, the second uncle's incompetence, the difficulty of guarding the border pass, the emperor's watchful and careful vigilance, and her own unease, all this pressure is exerted on an old man's body, and everything she did today is just to give this old man a preventive shot, so that he can face more betrayal and harm brought to him by his son in the future, all this is too cruel!
Chu Qianli asked herself if she was not a soft-hearted and delicate little girl, but at this moment, she retreated, if she directly killed Zuo Xiang and made the second uncle lose his reliance, then could he honestly not do anything to hurt his grandfather?
