Chapter 5: Acquaintance
A trace of sadness flashed in Lin Li's eyes, and he just wanted to say something.
A hearty laugh suddenly sounded outside the door: "Mrs. Gu, I'm here to celebrate your birthday!" ”
Everyone was attracted to the eyeballs, and they all turned their heads to look, only to see an old man in a gray tunics striding in.
"Hello uncle." This time, Gu Jinzhi was the first to get up and say hello, very respectfully.
Lin Li took this scene in his eyes and was stunned, he really couldn't imagine that someone could make Gu Jinzhi so respectful!
But, wait...... Why is this old man so familiar?
"Big brother, why are you here?" Grandma's eyes suddenly turned red and she hugged the old man, which was very kind.
In the next half an hour, Lin Li learned that the old man's name was Mo Qi, and he was the head of the Mo family who was on a par with the Gu family, and he had saved the old lady's life back then, but this old man was born to be a person of idle clouds and wild cranes, and he went to travel around the world after passing the group to his son decades ago, and he didn't rush back until the old lady's birthday today.
"Hey, by the way, I just heard you talk about the peace charm of Zhuguang Temple outside the door?" Old Man Mo asked with a concerned expression.
The old lady was stunned.
Song Sinian on the side couldn't wait to speak with a gloating expression: "Oh, speaking of which, Sister Lin Li, how can you deceive the old man in order to get Grandma Gu's joy?" ”
"Who! How dare you fake the peace charm of Zhuguang Temple? Old Man Mo's face was full of anger, obviously angry.
The old lady on the side took Lin Li's hand and hurriedly played a round for her: "Big brother, let's not say whether this charm is true or false, and say that my granddaughter-in-law's heart for my old woman is enough." ”
"Granddaughter-in-law?" Old Man Mo frowned, looked at Lin Li beside the old lady meaningfully, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Lin girl, it's you!" ”
Lin Li was still a little puzzled, this old man Mo looked familiar to him, but now he completely remembered it, isn't this the old man with a strange personality she saved before!
With a smile on the corner of her mouth, she stared intently at Old Man Mo: "I haven't seen you for so long, is your heart disease better?" ”
Hearing this, He Fengru's face suddenly darkened, "Lin Li, what nonsense are you talking about?" ”
Lin Li, who was scolded, was not angry or angry, but there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips.
Old Man Mo coughed dryly, raised his head and asked Lin Li: "It's not in the way, it's not in the way, speaking of this talisman, this is what you gave to Mrs. Gu?" ”
"Yes, Old Man Mo."
"Stinky girl, eccentric!" Old Man Mo muttered in a low voice, complaining.
His muttering was naturally heard by Lin Li, who was closest to him, and Lin Li lowered his head and snickered.
Suddenly, Lin Li felt a gaze staring at her, and she looked up to see that it was Gu Jinzhi.
The man's cold eyes made her heart tighten, Gu Jinzhi wouldn't suspect that she had other plans...
"Girl, let me ask you, where did you get this talisman from?" Old Man Mo mentioned this talisman, and his face was very solemn.
"Don't hide it from grandma and old man Mo, this talisman was brought up by my mother when I was young, and now I take it down and give it to grandma, I sincerely hope that grandma is healthy."
Lin Li lowered her head and looked sad, what she said was naturally the truth, if she hadn't been forced to the cusp by Song Sinian, she would definitely not have taken this thing out, but thinking of the way the old lady maintained her, it was worth it.
[Hint: The current heart rate of the strategy target is +1]
There was a sudden movement in the system, which made Lin Li breathe a sigh of relief, it seemed that Gu Jinzhi should have believed her.
Mrs. Gu on the side was deeply moved, and touched the tears in the corners of her eyes: "Jinzhi, this stinky boy has always refused to let me worry, but this daughter-in-law is really good." ”
Lin Li was also infected by her words, "Grandma, your health is the most important thing!" ”
"Although Sister Lin Li is for grandma's good, she can't fool everyone with fakes." Song Sinian looked at Lin Li, who had attracted a lot of attention, jealously, and said with a smile.
Old Man Mo frowned, as if he was displeased: "Fake? How could Lin Yatou's character send fakes? ”
After speaking, he took the peace charm from the old lady's hand and looked at it carefully.
After a while, Old Man Mo looked at Song Sinian and said incomprehensibly: "Little girl, you have to be forgiving and forgiving." His expression was indifferent and quite majestic, and his slightly cloudy but emanating eyes locked on Song Sinian's body, causing a burst of fear in her heart.
But......
Just now, Old Man Mo said that he should be forgiving and forgiving, didn't he just say that this peace charm was fake?
Thinking of this, Song Sinian became a little more confident, and the hypocritical look on his face became more and more obvious, "Sister Lin Li, now that even Old Man Mo says that this is fake, you should quickly admit your mistakes to grandma, and I believe that grandma and the elders will definitely forgive you." ”
"Which ear did you hear Old Man Mo say this is fake?" Gu Jinzhi's voice was slightly raised, and his dangerous eyes narrowed slightly.
The meaningful voice made Lin Li confused, this Gu Jinzhi was helping Song Sinian?
"Brother Jinzhi, Old Man Mo doesn't want to embarrass Sister Lin Li in front of everyone, so hurry up and persuade your sister."
Looking at her aggrieved expression, Lin Li almost believed her sincerity.
He Fengru saw that the wind was biased towards Song Sinian's side, and hurriedly stepped forward to add fuel and vinegar and said, "Yes, Lin Li, you still don't tell the truth. ”
Song Sinian saw that he was about to win back a game, squeezed out a few tears, stepped forward and lay down next to Gu Jinzhi's sofa armrest, "Brother Jinzhi, Xiao Nian heard that this really good talisman can protect peace, but fake things will cause disaster to people." ”
In order to bring down Lin Li, she did not hesitate to throw Mrs. Gu into the water.
But Mrs. Gu is Gu Jinzhi's only weakness.
"You're looking for death!" Gu Jinzhi's violent aura dispersed, and he looked at Song Sinian with cold eyes.
Song Sinian cried bitterly, sobbing intermittently, "Brother Jin, ...... today." Even if...... If you kill me, I won't watch this ill-intentioned woman hurt my grandmother, she is simply greedy for the family's property! ”
"Is she scheming, and it's not your turn to put her beak!" Gu Jinzhi's anger exploded.
Lin Li looked at it, a little panicked, and hurriedly stepped forward and pulled the man's hand, "Gu Jinzhi." ”
Gu Jinzhi was about to go crazy, but when he looked up, he saw the woman's anxious and delicate face, but he calmed down.
The atmosphere in the living room was tense.
Old Man Mo scolded, and his leather shoes stomped on the floor, as if he was not ready to relieve Song Sinian.
He Fengru hurriedly spoke: "Old Man Mo, you should say it clearly, is this talisman true or false?" If it's true or not, I must not allow those with ill intentions to succeed and harm my mother. ”
The appearance of a good daughter-in-law was vividly displayed by her.
Seeing that everyone was waiting for an answer, Old Man Mo said: "The talisman sent by the senior monk is engraved with his customized seal, this seal is unique, and Lin Yatou's one is on it." ”
"How is that possible?" Song Sinian blurted out.
Hearing this, Old Man Mo raised his hand and poked his cane on the ground fiercely, with a bang, and his face was fierce: "You question me? ”
Song Sinian was frightened, and retreated again and again, very embarrassed.
Old Man Mo's eyes flickered, "You girl, in order to win the favor of Gu Jinzhi's stinky boy, you make things difficult for my life-saving benefactor everywhere, it's really well-intentioned!" Hum! ”
The four words of good intentions fell on Song Sinian's body, like a thousand catties of burden.
"Master Mo, I didn't mean that......" She wanted to cry, but Old Man Mo avoided her gaze, obviously not eating her at all.
Song Sinian hurriedly turned her head to ask He Fengru for help, but He Fengru couldn't help her talk anymore if she couldn't protect herself.
As a last resort, she leaned down to Gu Jinzhi's side, "Brother Jinzhi, I'm all for my grandmother's good, I don't want Sister Lin Li to hurt my grandmother." ”
Obviously, Song Sinian's explanation angered everyone even more.
"You're asking the wrong person!" Gu Jinzhi staggered his face with a cold glance.
There was a dark tide in the living room, and everyone retreated to protect themselves.
"Big brother, today is my birthday, and now Xiao Ali has my Gu family's little golden grandson in her belly, I'm happy, I don't care about anything today." Although the old lady's face was full of displeasure, she still let Song miss it.
But Lin Li next to him was in a cold sweat, and he only moved out this set of rhetoric in order to understand the temporary predicament, but now it is being preached everywhere by the old lady, where should he go to hold her a golden grandson after ten months?
"Okay, today is your birthday, I listen to you, but this girl still has to apologize to the little girl." Old Man Mo's eyebrows were furrowed, and his tone was extremely tough.
When Song Sinian heard this, his unwillingness quickly exploded, "How can I apologize to this low-status person!" ”
"Don't apologize? Then let your family business pay a terrible price! Old Man Mo's words landed on the ground, and a huge wave smashed into Song Sinian's mind.
"What?" Song Sinian's eyes widened, her pupils lost focus for a while, and she sat on the ground with her legs limp and collapsed.
Lin Li sighed, and cut his eyes to Gu Jinzhi, but saw that he just had a cold face.
"Big brother, okay, the child is young and ignorant, and she will inevitably have to come and go in the future, she is our granddaughter like Xiao Ali." Mrs. Gu tried to appease Old Man Mo's anger.
Old Man Mo's face became colder and colder, "The old man doesn't have such a granddaughter." ”
As soon as he spoke, the entire living room became silent and embarrassed.
This guy didn't even give Mrs. Gu face.
Song Sinian's face turned pale, and he subconsciously bit his lip. "Old man Mo, I ......" Her face was blood-red, and she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
He Fengru on the side glared at Lin Li fiercely, and then stepped forward with a smile, "Uncle, you look scared of the child." ”
"The old man didn't bother to scare her, huh!" He flicked his sleeve.
Song Sinian bit her lip and stood aside, looking at He Fengru sadly.
"Uncle, this child, I grew up watching him since he was a child, his temperament is straighter, he has no bad intentions, today is my mother's birthday, you see, this child also brought Yu Ruyi here, that's a good baby."
