Chapter 60: He has revealed his intention to marry her in the future.
In the antique living room of the house, the incense of golden silk nan leaves slowly spread out from a chic goose pear tent red sandalwood box placed on the shelf on the side of the living room.
After a while, the living room, which had no smell, was filled with a faint smell of good incense that could relieve people's nervousness.
On the gray sofa in the middle of the living room, the old man in a coffee-colored tunic had a flat face, and his posture was upright, holding a book of Diamond Buddhist scriptures and reading them carefully.
A few minutes later, the sound of a car stalling could be heard in the front yard.
Jin Shenhan led Meng Luoning in to visit the old man.
It's not the first time the little girl has come here, and of course it's not the first time she's seen the old man, she came to the old man as Jin Tianfeng's suitor and fiancΓ©e before, but this time, the identity has changed, and the status is different, so the feeling of visiting is naturally different.
Anyway, though.
She won't give up on her uncle.
The old man had actually been waiting for them for a long time, and when the two of them came over and stood by the sofa to greet him, he put down the Vajra Sutra in his hand and looked at Meng Luoning with a calm look.
"Grandpa." Jin Shenhan's fingers clasped tightly on the person beside him, afraid that she would retreat, Wen Sheng began to reintroduce it to the old man, although he had called before, but he wanted to give Ning Ning a kind of respect, at least not to fool her: "Ning Ning, you should know." β
"Now, we're talking."
The old man didn't speak, he looked at them with a calm look, Meng Luoning couldn't figure out what grandpa was thinking? She pursed her lips and was silent for a few seconds before she spoke obediently: "Hello, grandpa." β
After saying hello, the old man still didn't speak, and the atmosphere suddenly changed a little, Meng Luoning thought that the old man didn't accept her?
Subconsciously I couldn't help but get nervous.
The hand holding Jin Shenhan also tightened, her pretty brows furrowed slightly, biting her lip, and she couldn't stand it...... A little anxious: "Grandpa...... Don't you like me? β
After saying that, the little girl's nose turned red.
Because I feel like crying a little.
When she chased Jin Shenhan, she was not so scared and nervous.
But on the old man's side, she felt for the first time, the uneasiness, nervousness, and helplessness that seemed to be choked by someone's neck and suffocated.
I'm so afraid, grandpa beats mandarin ducks.
I'm even more afraid that I will lose the man I finally caught up.
Just when Meng Luoning's eyes were almost rosy and she was in tears, the old man suddenly laughed and said slowly: "That's it? If I don't speak, I'm going to cry my nose? β
"I heard Shen Han say that when you chase him, don't you like to cry so much?"
Meng Luoning was stunned.
Really-rud-eyes looked at the old man aggrievedly, is the old man too good at scaring children?
She had just seen that he was silent.
It's really a bit of a bluff.
thought that grandpa would think that she was hooking three and four, first Jin Tianfeng, and now uncle, co-authored, she chased after the two men of the Jin family.
"Grandpa, I'...... I'm afraid you don't like me. Meng Luoning stopped crying, and immediately said obediently.
The old man smiled: "It doesn't matter if I like it or not." β
"The key is the two of you."
"Ning Ning, I heard that you can play chess, the last time you accompanied Shen Han to Lingyin Temple, you killed all the abbots and didn't leave a piece of armor?" The old man gestured to the guards on the side as he spoke.
The guard nodded, and immediately went to the study to get the old man's chessboard.
"How about playing a game of chess with me?"
Meng Luoning was willing to accompany, "Grandpa, I'll accompany you." β
The old man smiled, and his eyes fell on Jin Shenhan's side: "You, go to the backyard and help me take care of my flower garden." β
Jin Shenhan knew what the old man meant, and wanted to talk to Ning Ning alone.
He let go of Meng Luoning's hand and said, "Grandpa, don't mess with her." β
The old man snorted: "Am I that bad? β
Jin Shenhan: "I'll go to the back garden first." β
After a pause, looking at the little girl beside him, the man reached out and gently stroked the top of her hair: "Don't be nervous, grandpa won't murder you." β
Meng Luoning knew, and it could be seen from Grandpa's attitude just now that he really didn't want to kill her.
"Well, I'm not nervous."
"You...... Let's get it right, okay? "She'd be a little uneasy without him around.
Jin Shen smiled warmly and promised in a low voice: "Okay." β
After that, the man reluctantly went to the backyard to help the old man deal with his flower garden.
"Lemon, sit." The old man reached out and patted the sofa on his side.
Meng Luoning obediently sat down on the side sofa.
Wait for her to be seated.
The maid at home immediately poured her a very sweet cup of citrus tea.
This kind of citrus can't be bought in the store outside.
It is a special supply for chrysanthemum flower farmers, and it is generally only used to make tea for people in the military region.
Not for sale.
So its value is not measured by money, but by a symbol of status, status and power.
Of course, it's not that a rich nouveau riche lady like her can compare, and it's no wonder that there are many people who take the public exam this year.
Everyone squeezed their heads to enter this admirable class.
"Lemon taste, citrus, clear the lungs and moisten the throat." The old man fiddled with the chessboard sent by the guard and said.
Meng Luoning pinched the porcelain cup made by the high-grade Ru kiln, lowered her head and tasted two sips.
Sure enough, it was a class special.
It's better than the tens of thousands of pounds of tea her father bought.
"Grandpa, this tea is delicious." Meng Luoning finished drinking, put down the porcelain cup, and praised sincerely.
The old man smiled and asked the guard to put another box of black chess next to Meng Luoning.
"If you like it, you can come to me anytime in the future." He has no shortage of chess partners.
But there is a lack of a granddaughter-in-law who will come back to the old mansion at any time to play.
Meng Luoning was stunned for a moment, and did not react to the hint that the old man had something to say, and when the old man played a white piece first, the crisp chess pieces landed on the chessboard and made a slight sound.
She just came back to her senses.
Grandfather...... Is it to accept her?
Also hinting that she could come and play more?
Thinking of this, Meng Luoning's mood jumped a little excited, picked up the chess pieces in the chess box next to him, and began to play chess with the old man.
However, the old man pulled her to play chess, and it was definitely not just a game of chess.
Wait for the two sides to 'fight' halfway through.
The old man only entered today's formal topic: "Ningling, you are really with Shen Han, right?" β
Meng Luoning nodded: "Well, grandpa, I'm serious." β
The old man rubbed his fingertips on the white son on the tip of his fingers, and smiled lightly at the corner of his lips: "Feelings, not child's play." β
"The impulse and enthusiasm of the moment will be washed away by time, can you stick to it?"
Meng Luoning may not know that when Jin Shenhan chatted with the old man in private, he had already revealed his willingness to marry her in the future.
This was something he never expected.
He thought that the relationship between the two of them was just a young man's hormones.
When it comes to a little love, he will definitely not object.
But marriage is not child's play.
He was worried that his family would fall into the cold and fall seriously, but the little girl was still young, and the age when she had just graduated from college was the time to play hard.
I had such a stormy scene with Jin Tianfeng before.
He was afraid that she would not be able to hold on in the end.
Wounded both sides.
"Grandpa, you...... Is it doubtful that I will ...... Change of heart? Meng Luoning happened to be in the air, and when she heard the old man suddenly say this, she directly stopped what she was doing and looked at the old man: "Grandpa, I won't change my mind." β
The old man continued to smile: "There is no basis for what you say. β
"Ningning, many people in this world like to say things very satisfactorily."
"In the end, the time is not enough, and the ones who should be dispersed still have to disperse."
"I wonder how long you can hold out? In this way, I can rest assured...... "The words 'your marriage' in the back, the old man deliberately did not say it.
I just want to leave some leeway.
Let's see how the little girl performs in the future.
Speaking of which, Meng Luoning finally understood her grandfather's words, but she didn't think that her grandfather meant to make it difficult for her when he said this, and her grandfather had worked hard in the military region for so many years.
He went to the battlefield at the age of 15, and finally walked to such a high position with courage and resourcefulness.
He asked her something, why not?
Instead...... Grandpa's words stirred up her fighting spirit.
Grandpa tested her, she wanted to let her grandfather know that it was not wrong for her uncle to choose her.
"Grandpa, this time, I won't let you down." Meng Luoning clenched the sunspot in her hand and replied seriously, and when she finished replying, when she looked at the chessboard, the little girl was very polite and directly blocked the old man's back road.
Now the old man lost.
But the old man was not angry, but suddenly laughed: "Ningning, you won." β
"Hopefully, Ningning will not disappoint grandpa next time."
Meng Luoning said seriously: "Grandpa, it will definitely not." β
