Chapter 44: Tong Shan

"Lily, Lily......"

In the white mist, there was a hoarse old man's voice.

Lily could hear it, it was Grandpa's voice.

Lily's relationship with her grandfather is not good, but it is not bad either, and the reason why this is so is because the two usually have little contact and the relationship seems rusty.

"Grandpa, grandpa?"

She swallowed her saliva and looked into the depths of the white mist, a little nervous.

The next moment, an old man walked out.

He was dressed in rags and sackcloth, and his left eye was broken, and he made an eyepatch out of rags.

Seeing her grandfather so embarrassed, Lily couldn't help but be stunned and said:

"Grandpa, you, why are you like this?"

After all, in Lilico's impression, the image of her grandfather has always been that of a rich old man full of luxury.

But the person in front of him is clearly a helpless homeless man.

"Granddaughter, my old granddaughter, the next day is not easy, it is not good...... Woowoo woo ......"

The old man began to cry, and his dejected image was particularly pitiful.

Lilico's heart softened at once, and she said:

"What am I going to do? How can I help your grandfather? ”

"Money, I need more money, the money you gave me is useful, it's true.

Find a way to get some more, get some more. ”

"Understood, I'll get it right away."

"Also, Tong Shan."

"Tong Shan?"

"Yes, Tongshan, Tongshan......"

At this time, a man's voice came from behind him:

"It's time, old man."

The next moment, Grandpa's body was gradually surrounded by the dense fog behind him, until it was completely swallowed.

"Grandpa?"

Lily could call, but there was no response in the fog.

She screamed several more times, but the other party still did not respond.

Until......

"Sister, sister."

A familiar female voice rings in my ears.

Lilyco opened her eyes and was greeted by the figures of her two younger sisters.

The two of them were dressed in pajamas and looked at themselves with some concern.

The reason why this is so is because the three sisters slept together last night.

"It's okay, sister." Louise Road.

"Have a nightmare?" Lucille said.

"No, it's okay......"

Lily glanced at the time, it was already eight o'clock in the morning.

She quickly got out of bed, got dressed, and wanted to go and talk to her father.

The twins want to sleep for a while, after all, it's a rare holiday.

——

Lily found Carl in the back garden of her home.

Carl was watering the newly planted tree.

"Daddy."

"Well, wake up so early? Why don't you sleep a little longer? ”

"I dreamed of my grandfather, and she said that the money was very useful, and she wanted to burn some more."

"You kid, why haven't you forgotten this stubble?"

In Carl's eyes, Lily was lying, and for the sake of the so-called friend's business, he said:

"Is your friend really that important? Or do you have something in his hands? ”

"No, I'm telling the truth."

"Then why did the old man give you a dream but not give me a dream?"

"Also, maybe you don't have a good relationship?"

"Nonsense, I don't have any big holidays with the old man."

The old man was basically a left-behind old man in his later years.

Carl has been busy with work and has not been in the company of much.

This matter has always been a meme in Carl's mind.

Now that his daughter says this, he is inevitably a little uncomfortable.

So he said:

"If it's okay, find something to do, don't bother me, let me stay alone for a while."

"But Daddy ......"

"You're angry if you harass me again, don't blame me for deducting your pocket money."

"I ......"

Seeing that her father was already a little displeased, Lily didn't dare to say any more.

But her mind turned quickly, and she said:

"Daddy...... Going to work today? ”

"Do you think I have to go to work as I am?"

"Then let's go out and play, let's go climb Tong Mountain."

"Tong Shan? There's so much to do in that place, now I just want to stay at home and not go anywhere. ”

Carl didn't want to go to Tongshan, and Lilico's suggestion he didn't take it.

But Lily wasn't going to give up, so he found his two sisters.

is different from the thin-skinned self who is not good at coquettishness, and the two younger sisters are obviously more capable of handling Carl.

No, under the entanglement of the second daughter, Carl was finally defeated and agreed to climb Tong Mountain.

——

"Okay, okay, let's go, let's go, but Tongshan is so big, which way are we going? You can't just run around. ”

Seeing this, the housekeeper on the side, Atai, suggested:

"I remember that the old lady built a villa on the mountain before his death, so the old lady might as well go there and go around."

"Villa? When? ”

"It's been more than ten years, is the master going? If I'm going, I'll contact the people over there now. ”

"Go ahead, there's nowhere to go anyway."

In this way, under the arrangement of the housekeeper, the family went to Tongshan in a mighty way.

Halfway through the climb, Carl couldn't help but sigh:

"Over the years, City A has changed more and more, but only this Tongshan has hardly changed."

The butler chimed in and said:

"Yes, after all, the current government has never had the idea of developing this mountain, and the previous city lord seemed to want to develop tourism, but he was jointly removed by the tourism bosses in other places."

"I remember this, when banners were pulled up on the road every day to protest, and the chaos was dying."

"Those are all group performances paid by the financiers of the tourist area."

"The last time I came to this Tongshan, it was a few years ago, when I went to worship the ancestors of my ancestors, after all, I am a Tongshan person, and I grew up in the mountains since I was a child.

It was only later that the grave of the deceased was moved to the cemetery, and since then, this place has not been visited. ”

"I heard from you last night that when I was a child, I often went to the secret base with the old lady to play, and I don't know if that place is still there."

"Haha, a dilapidated hunter's hut, almost thirty years old, I guess it's long gone."

The group climbed the mountain slowly, and before they knew it, they had arrived at their destination.

It was a courtyard house.

The young caretaker of the villa had been waiting at the door with a few of his men for a long time.

Seeing Carl and his party coming, the administrator stepped forward enthusiastically.

"Boss, you're here!"

"This is ......"

Karl looked at the butler, and the butler said:

"This is Xiao Qi, the housekeeper here, they usually take care of this room for the old man."

"Yes, yes, when the old lady is still alive, she will come and stay for two days every once in a while."

Administrator Xiao Qi is a young man in his twenties.

He was looking extremely nervous right now.

I don't blame him for this, after all, the old man has passed away.

In other words, there is no need for my own group of people to exist, and I am afraid that I will not lose my job soon.

So now Xiao Qi wants to tie up Karl.

Trying to keep his job.

After all, who doesn't love a job that pays both easy and well?

——

"That's it, that little Qi, can you introduce me here, what does the old man usually do here? Also, why did he choose this to build a house? ”

"Yes, yes, please come with me, I'll explain them one by one."
