Chapter 375: Where there is hope, there is hope
Men Guangrong looked at them, sighed silently, his eyes were a little confused, and he said for a long time: "Grandpa is old, and his spirit is not as good as day by day, thinking that when his mind is clear, he will see that you are all happy, and grandpa will have no regrets." ”
The old man, who has always been decisive and tough, suddenly said such sentimental words, which made everyone a little uncomfortable, and for a while, no one at the dinner table spoke, because they didn't know how to react.
It was Sang Zhi who reacted first, reached out and put a chopstick dish into the old man's bowl, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, you are not old at all, and your spirit is good, you look like you are in your early sixties at most, and you are in good spirits, so you don't want to say anything depressed." ”
Men Guangrong looked at her and smiled, and said, "You girl, grandpa knows that you are filial, but grandpa's body, grandpa himself knows." Grandpa didn't know if he could see Shaoxuan again, alas......"
The emotional old man suddenly remembered Men Shaoxuan and sighed.
"Grandpa, we listen to you."
Lei Ming glanced at Men Yuewei, reached out from under the table and grabbed her hand tightly.
The old man is old, and sometimes it is inevitable that he is easy to be emotional, and they are filial piety to make the old man happy when they are juniors.
Men Yuewei saw the word filial piety in Lei Ming's eyes, and couldn't help but be moved.
"Well, grandpa, we listen to you."
Men Yuewei followed Lei Ming with kindness and said.
Seeing that the children were so filial and sensible, Lin Yaran couldn't help but secretly wipe away her tears.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Why are you still crying? ”
Men Yuewei looked at her mother, and in her impression, this was the first time she had seen her mother wipe her tears in front of so many people, and she couldn't help but feel sour in her heart.
"Mom is fine, Mom is happy, happy."
Lin Yaran said as she beckoned everyone to hurry up and eat.
It was decided so happily at the dinner table, the engagement between Men Yuewei and Lei Ming was directly changed to marriage, of course, marriage is much more complicated than the engagement procedure, and more preparations must be made.
The Men family and the Lei family are both families with heads and faces, even if they don't want to make a big deal, this wedding scene is not small.
There is only less than a week left, and it is indeed in a hurry, and Sang Zhi and Su Sanshan, who is in charge of the wedding planning of Men Yuewei and "Liyuan", also added several shifts together to rush out a plan that everyone is satisfied with.
Then everything is being prepared in an orderly manner, just waiting for the time to come.
Good things are coming, and the whole house of the family is shrouded in a joyful atmosphere.
But when everyone was happy and happy, Sang Zhi noticed several times that the old man was a little lonely and lonely.
After lingering in front of the door of the glorious study for a long time, Sang Zhi finally mustered up the courage and reached out and knocked lightly on the door.
"Come in."
The old man's always strong voice came from the room.
Mulberry pushed open the door and walked in gently.
On the desk was a painting that the old man had just written, the ink had not yet dried, the pen and ink were still on the side, and the room smelled of ink.
"Grandpa."
Mulberry Zhi came in and called softly.
The door was glorious and stood with his hands in his hands, looking out the window in a daze.
Hearing the shouts behind him, he turned around and saw Sang Zhi, raised his eyebrows lightly, and said, "Zhizhi, why do you have something to find grandpa?" ”
"Grandpa......" Sang Zhi hesitated and said, "Is Grandpa worried about his cousin?" ”
Men Shaoxuan's matter is already an open secret in the Men family, especially this time when Sang Zhi had an accident, and it has something to do with Men Shaoxuan, and she also met Men Shaoxuan.
Therefore, whether it is for Men Guangrong or for everyone in the Men family, there is no need for Sang Zhi to hide the fact that he knows Men Shaoxuan.
"Hmmm......"
Men Guangrong nodded lightly and motioned for Sang Zhi to sit down and speak.
Sang Zhi honestly sat on the chair next to him, looking at the wrinkled marks of time on the door glory, and couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Men Shaoxuan is also in his thirties, if he really still has some conscience, he still thinks about his family, and he still thinks that he is a family member, no matter how he should come back, or even if he sends a letter to his family, let his family rest assured!
"Zhizhi, did you say that the last time you saw him, he really didn't say anything to you? Didn't he say anything about the family? ”
At the mention of Men Shaoxuan, the old man's expression couldn't help but be a little solemn.
This grandson, whom he has never met, has always been his concern.
Sang Zhi thought for a moment and shook his head, "No, he didn't say anything, but ......"
Sang Zhi hesitated, not knowing whether to tell the old man or how to talk about it.
"But what?"
The old man seems to have come to the spirit, as long as there is something about Men Shaoxuan, it can arouse the interest of the old man.
Sang Zhi thought about it, but still said truthfully: "However, he said that he knew everything. ”
After speaking, Sang Zhi carefully observed the old man's expression.
Seeing that nothing unusual happened to the old man, he said again: "Grandpa, although he didn't say anything, I can feel that he cares about the family very much, and he also cares about the situation of the family." ”
"Why do you say that?"
The old man didn't let go of everything that could be learned about Men Shaoxuan, and looked at Sang Zhi with a glint of hope in his eyes.
"I can't say it, I just feel that he is not far away from us, maybe for some reason, he has not shown up."
Mulberry hesitated to say what he had in mind.
That's right, these are her feelings, her guesses, she knows, guesses, feelings, can't be counted, the reason why she dared to tell the old man like this is just to comfort him and make him feel relieved.
"Oh......"
Sure enough, the old man didn't take Sang Zhi's words too seriously, and he also understood that the child's kindness was just that he didn't want to worry.
"Grandpa, my cousin also has a daughter, I wonder if Shaoting has ever told you about it?"
Sang Zhi hesitated, but couldn't help but speak.
She thought, now that she has confirmed that Men Shaoxuan is still alive, and she has already seen him, maybe one day he will really be able to appear alive in front of the Men family.
So now, there is nothing to hide from the old man, it's time to tell the old man everything she knows about Men Shaoxuan.
"Huh? What, he still has a daughter? ”
Sang Zhi's words undoubtedly surprised the old man.
He always felt that the news that Men Shaoting knew about Men Shaoxuan would not be as pitiful as he said.
Although the old man has not been in a hurry to ask, he knows in his heart that Men Shaoting is a measured person, if he thinks what he should know, he will definitely tell himself.
But what he didn't expect was that his grandson, who had always been proud, was so tight-mouthed, so tight that the whole family knew about it, and he only hid it from his old man.
Seeing that the old man's expression moved slightly, Sang Zhi understood in his heart that Men Shaoting really hadn't told the old man about that girl.
After thinking about it, I had already opened my mouth anyway, so I told the old man all about it without reservation.
"Grandpa, in fact, we have been hiding it from you, and we didn't dare to tell you, we all know a lot of things after Men Shaoxuan's disappearance, and it was told to us by an aunt named Fang Fang."
"Fang Fang?"
The name was pronounced on Men's lips, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Fang Fang's name seems familiar?"
Men Guangrong said to himself a little.
In an instant, as if he had thought of something, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Sang Zhi and asked, "Fang Fang, you said that she told you a lot of things about Men Shaoxuan?" What's going on, hurry up and tell grandpa. ”
Sang Zhi didn't hesitate any longer, so he told Men Guangrong what Fang Fang had said to him when he came to the capital to find Men Shaoxuan before.
After hearing this, the old man was also emotional, sighed and said: "At the beginning, grandpa was resolutely opposed to your father-in-law and Fang Fang being together, but I didn't expect this Fang Fang to fall in love with your uncle at first sight, and he ran thousands of miles to find him, and finally took in and took care of your uncle's child, it seems that this woman is also a benevolent girl, grandpa blamed her at the beginning." ”
Thinking that Fang Fang had never married in his life for the sake of Menzhong, this kind of thing was unbelievable for his old man to think about it, it really happened to a girl. ‘
Moreover, it seems that his grandson, who has never met before, was also raised with the help of others, although at the age of eighteen, Men Shaoxuan ran away and has not been heard from since, but no matter what, Fang Fang can be regarded as a great benefactor for the Men family.
"Alas, I don't know if grandpa will be able to see that girl in his lifetime, if he can see her, grandpa must tell her sorry, this is what grandpa owes her."
Listening to the old man's rare soft words, Sang Zhi couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart.
nodded and said softly, "Grandpa, there must be a chance." Aunt Fang Fang and her parents are good friends now, they should be in touch, if you want to know something, maybe you can let your parents try to contact her. ”
Since the last time Fang Fang came to the capital to find Men Shaoxuan and met Lin Yaran and Men Zheng, the knot between the three of them, which could not be seen or touched but clearly existed for decades, was finally resolved, and Lin Yaran and Fang Fang have also become real friends from former rivals.
Fang Fang had to go back early because of his father's physical condition, but Lin Yaran and Fang Fang have always been in contact.
Sang Zhi thought, if the old man wanted to know something, he could contact Lin Yaran and Fang Fang through it, it was not a problem.
It seems that everything is developing in a good direction, although Men Shaoxuan only showed one side and then there was no news, but at least let everyone know that he is still alive, alive well, and there is hope to see him again.
And Sang Zhi's words to the old man undoubtedly opened a bright window to the glorious heart of the door.
let him see the dawn of hope, not only said that his grandson who had never met still had hope to meet, but also let him know that in this world, he still has a great-granddaughter who has never met, a great-granddaughter who has grown up.
Now the old man is not only looking forward to finding his grandson, but also looking forward to finding the great-granddaughter soon.
"If there really is a day when I close my eyes, I can go over there and explain to my old comrades in the door."
The old man said this faintly, and then closed his eyes.
Sang Zhi sighed in his heart, in order to help his grandfather achieve his wish as soon as possible, it seems that he has to go to Bai Mufeng.
I don't know why, Sang Zhi always has a feeling that Bai Mufeng must know more about Men Shaoxuan, and even his whereabouts.
"Grandpa......"
After hesitating for a moment, Sang Zhi actually had some hope in his heart, hoping that the old man would pry open Bai Mufeng's mouth through his own relationship and get more information about Men Shaoxuan from Bai Mufeng's mouth.
But thinking of this, it seems that there is some suspicion of abuse of power by the old man, the old man has been honest all his life, but in the end, it is not good to fall into his mouth, so after thinking about it, he shut up again.
"What's wrong?"
The old man didn't open his eyes, still with his eyes closed, and asked.
"It's nothing, you can rest, I'll go out first."
Sang Zhi patted his chest with a little weakness and walked out of the old man's study.
"Ah...... What are you doing? Scared the hell out of me! ”
