Chapter 260: A Man's Responsibility
Li Changyu wandered out of the world, Li Mingrui and Fang Shi looked at him worriedly, and did not speak, and the room was quiet.
After a while, Li Gengtian coughed and persuaded his son: "Changyu, it's not that my father said you, this chrysanthemum is a good girl who is diligent and docile, and it is not bad in our countryside, but she is still not comparable to this old man's daughter." I won't talk about looks - we are honest people, as long as we have good character, we don't pay attention to that appearance - it is more knowledgeable, and the daughter of the old man is also literate and hyphenated; Compared with upbringing, Master Gao's daughter is also everyone's girlfriend, where can the girl in the countryside compare? That family background and money are not to be compared, because although my father is a village man, he is not the person who is greedy for money and clings to the powerful. β
He said a lot, felt a little dry mouth, poured himself a glass of water and drank it, but saw the old man Li Mingrui glaring at him fiercely, stood up and pulled Li Changyu out, leaving him to sit with big eyes and small eyes, for some reason the old man was suddenly unhappy.
It turned out that Li Mingrui listened to his son's words, and was very angry, and thought disdainfully: "You kid just don't have a backache when you stand and talk, when you want to marry the Fang family, you also said a lot of reasons for quitting your family; Now that the grandson wants to marry the person he likes, the same reason doesn't work? β
Chrysanthemum wants to marry Huaizi, Changyu feels uncomfortable, he is a father and still says these useless words, if a person's mind is so easy to turn around, what do you like!
In the end, the Li family still did not withdraw from their relatives. Li Changyu knew in his heart that there was no hope for him to withdraw from the chrysanthemum, but he couldn't accept it for a while.
Despite this, on the tenth day of the lunar month, he still returned to Qinghui, as if he was closer to the distance, even if he couldn't recover the lost first love, he could still see its back from afar, and remember it!
Li Mingrui accompanied his grandson and gossiped for a while, and seeing that he was still unhappy, he pondered for a while, and said to him: "Changyu, when you return to Qinghui, you should go and tell Hu Xianling to retire this family." You should think of the reason first, so that people don't look bad when you get it. β
Li Changyu was taken aback and asked in disbelief: "Grandpa, are youΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· What does that mean? "Could it be that grandpa wants to grab chrysanthemums with Huaizi by himself? But is it too late to go? It's really a lose-lose situation.
Li Mingrui pinched a melon seed, put it in his mouth and swallowed it, and then spit out the melon seed skin with a "poof" before saying to Li Changyu: "Do you think grandpa asked you to grab chrysanthemums?" β
He shook his head gently, and continued: "You have a relationship with Chrysanthemum, how much is the matter, you know it in your own heart, what to do, you weigh it yourself." Grandpa is talking about your relationship with the Gao family, as well as your father. β
Li Changyu looked at his grandfather in confusion, not knowing what he wanted to say.
Li Mingrui looked at his grandson's eyes seriously and said: "Withdraw from the marriage, lest you always think that in the future, it is your father who helped you set this marriage, which will ruin your good marriage; Quit, lest you think that if it weren't for Miss Gao, you would definitely be able to marry Chrysanthemum. You know, even if your father didn't help you decide on this marriage, it is uncertain whether you can marry Chrysanthemum. β
Li Changyu stared blankly at the old man's closed mouth, only feeling a kind of cruelty to expose the truth and despair in the face of reality, yes, it was like tearing off the face towel of the chrysanthemum and seeing the leprosy skin that ruined her face, which made people feel sorry, but they couldn't think about it.
Li Mingrui said faintly: "Grandpa doesn't want you to be sad, but you also have to be clear: no one forces you." Your father didn't, and Miss Gao didn't! If you are not happy, let's fight to damage the future of Changfeng, and we must also withdraw from this family; However, if you accept this marriage, then you have to take care of it, and don't say anything in the future, 'It's because of my father that I lost the opportunity to marry Chrysanthemum; I obviously don't like Miss Gao, so I can't marry her, or something like that. Your father won't talk about it, although he is a little reckless, but whose family's family affairs are not all set by his father? Did they find it themselves? Not to mention Miss Gao, her character, family background, appearance, everything is outstanding, why do you want to marry and look at your face? If you are not happy, leave early, lest you harm other people's daughters. β
Li Changyu muttered: "No one forced you, no one forced you!" For a moment, it was like a thunderclap, waking him up full of loss and faint resentment towards his father.
It turned out that he was a person who was not responsible and refused to face the reality, and he felt uncomfortable, so he attributed all this to his father, and even the Miss Gao, who had not met, complained about it.
Li Mingrui said affirmatively: "No one forced you!" Our family will not rely on in-laws to climb up, and if Changfeng can't be an official, he will come back to farm. Hehe, speaking of which, the old man Gao is also unlucky, he thinks that he has money and power, and his daughter is outstanding, and he looks at you as a 'wise and heroic, who knows that you have this thought! Fortunately, our family is a kind of field, and we have no money and no power, otherwise, people would have doubted his intentions. β
Li Changyu changed his face again, yes, he was just a farmer, and he was not a young talent. Grandpa is right, if you don't want to marry someone, quit your family, don't make it look like others are forcing him. Thinking like this, it seems that he just looks at him with a resentful look, as if to say, "Who forced you to marry me?" Is this unwilling? β
He let out a long breath and said, "I understand what Grandpa meant, and I won't be confused anymore." I should go down this door. β
Li Mingrui smiled and asked, "Have you thought about it?" Don't say it casually and regret it. Also, Miss Gao didn't mess with you, if you don't plan to treat others well, it's better to quit this family. To be honest, I don't approve of your dad comparing her to a chrysanthemum - people can't compare it like that. However, if it is really compared, people can afford it. It's just that you recognize Chrysanthemum first and then you like her. β
Li Changyu looked at the treacherous grandfather helplessly, and said coquettishly: "Grandpa, is your grandson such a responsible person?" Aren't you just afraid that I'm still worried about chrysanthemums? Don't worry, since I should be this family, I will naturally treat her well in the future. β
Li Mingrui said with a straight face: "It's not to treat her well, it's to treat her wholeheartedly!" Changyu, grandpa was the same as you back then, he didn't marry the girl he liked, and then he married your grandmother. β
Li Changyu hurriedly asked, "Why?" Grandpa also helped you get married first? "If that's the case, their Li family is really interesting.
Li Mingrui glanced at him and said, "What are you thinking?" It's just that I haven't saved enough money, so the girl is married to someone else, it's as simple as that. Later, when I saved enough money, I hired your grandmother. She also knows this, and she always talks to me when she is angry, why don't you go to your Yingzili? I haven't been to Yingzi once. Your grandmother is used to asking, and when she was dying, she asked me with a smile: 'Are you going to find Yingzili?' ,, I told her, I won't go to Yingzi in my life, wait for the next life, oh no, it's better to marry you in the next life. β
The old man whispered, his eyes unfocused, as if passing through Nadaiwa and looking at his relatives in a distant place. He smiled gently, the folds of his face stretched, and his voice became soft, but it was firm, as if he didn't need some strength, for fear that he would not be able to hold up this promise, and his quiet voice was like a golden stone.
Li Changyu listened to an ancient legend and was brought into a misty situation by his grandfather, for some reason, Xu is recent days have felt a lot, the old man's quiet voice aroused a tremor in his heart, and suddenly burst into tears - it turns out that in addition to his father's mother, life can still have another ending!
Li Mingrui gently wiped the tears from his grandson's face with his hand, and said with a smile: "Grandpa told you a secret: Actually, after I married your grandmother, I found that her Yingzi was not bad, and I didn't take that Yingzi to heart for a long time." But your grandmother always liked to say this, and the more she talked about it, the more she rejoiced. Why? for I hear as if I had not heard. β
After a pause, he said, "But you have to treat her sincerely, so that you can find her good; If you are unwilling, then she will not be pleasing to the eye. I dare to conclude that that Miss Gao is definitely no worse than Chrysanthemum. It's not that chrysanthemums are bad, it's just that this woman, each has its own good, each has its own wonder-, if you are dead-eyed, you have to weigh the same weight as pork, isn't it not pleasant to find? β
Li Changyu couldn't help but burst into tears when he compared women to pork, and asked, "What is the difference between grandma and Yingzi?" "Asking about grandpa's romantic affairs when he was young can make that lovelorn heart forget the pain for a while.
Li Mingrui fell into memories again, and the smile on his face became gentle: "Yingzi is very gentle, and her speech is sweet, as crisp as gnawing on a summer cucumber; Your grandmother, belch! Just like the little pepper, it is red and bright, and fried tender soybeans are the most exciting to eat. Well, the older you get, the spicier it gets, and the chili sauce is still fragrant! β
Li Changyu listened to his grandfather compare the two women in his heart with melons and vegetables, and laughed out loud again, but he felt that the description was very wonderful-, under the careful tasting, two different country girls suddenly appeared in front of him, one gentle, the other refreshing!
After laughing for a while, Li Changyu sniffed and asked casually, "Who is that Yingzi?" He wanted to know who his grandfather's former sweetheart was.
Li Mingrui glanced at his grandson and said slowly, "Yingzi? Isn't it Huang Da Yanzi's old lady! β
"Poof!" Li Changyu almost choked to death with his own saliva.
He thought of Huang Da Yanzi's old lady's swaying walking, shriveled and wrinkled smile, how could it not coincide with the soft country girl he imagined just now, and couldn't help but roll his eyes and shout at Li Mingrui: "Grandpaβ"
Li Mingrui looked at his grandson's frightened look, and laughed: "No matter who it is, it's like this when you're old!" Hahaha......"
