Chapter 121: Huxinting
Chapter 121 Pavilion in the Heart of the Lake
Mr. Nan's face turned cold. Men want to save face and don't want others to see their embarrassing side. Especially if you are rejected after chasing a girl, it is definitely a taboo. But this fourth uncle didn't know what was going on. Not only did he hide to the side and watch, but he also came up to him without even saying a word. Wasn't this meant to make fun of him and cause trouble for him? !
He glared at his fourth uncle bitterly.
Fourth Uncle's heart skipped a beat. This Young Master Nan was angry. The two had been working together in business for so many years. He knew Young Master Nan's temper better than anyone else. He looked very gentle, but in fact he was a gentle scum and a ruthless master. He was It's not a good idea to hold a grudge against such a person.
The fourth uncle scolded Xia Ling a thousand and eight hundred times in his heart, and suddenly his eyes rolled, and the plan came to his mind. "Mr. Nan, I have an idea to help you deal with that stinky girl..."
He whispered a few words in Mr. Nan’s ear.
Mr. Nan looked unhappy at first, but after listening to his fourth uncle's words, he slowly smiled. "Sure enough, you are still smarter than ever. Fourth uncle, you are doing well with this trick of cutting firepower from the bottom. If this happens, I will introduce you to that big client in the north."
My fourth uncle, thank you very much.
"We are all a family, so why are you grateful?" Mr. Nan said with high spirits, "If this girl knows what is good, I will give her the treatment of a rich wife. If she doesn't know what is good... Hehe, get ready, we will take care of this matter tomorrow Done.”
Over there, Xia Ling knew nothing about the two people's conspiracy and spread the quilt in the room.
The bedding was freshly laundered and very clean. She spread it out on the bed clumsily and pretended for a long time that she couldn't figure it out. Grandma Ye slept in the same room with her. When she heard the noise, she smiled and said, "It's not done yet? Come on, grandma will help you."
The old man groped over, grabbed a corner of the sheet, and felt the cotton lining. He skillfully put it into the sheet and smoothed it out.
Xia Ling was dumbfounded: "Grandma is so amazing..." She was very ashamed. She, a young man with hands and feet, could not even compare to a blind old woman with a blanket. She suddenly felt that her years of life had been in vain.
"This child," Grandma Ye shook her head and sighed as she helped her put the quilt on. "What will you do if you get married in the future? You can't even put on a quilt, but you have to marry a husband who loves you and dotes on you. He can help you." Just do some housework."
Xia Ling's face turned slightly red: "Grandma."
Grandma Ye heard her voice and smiled again: "Little girl, are you still shy? Come and tell grandma what's going on with your suitors? Grandma will help you with your advice."
“I’m not thinking about getting married.” Xia Ling muttered softly.
"That won't work," said Grandma Ye. "Even if you don't think about getting married, you still have to try falling in love first. After a few years, you will know who is suitable for you and who is not. Girl, grandma is here, listen. Grandma, what you like the most may not be the best for you. Even if you love it to death, you may look back one day and realize that it was all hot-headed if you didn't experience one or two more relationships. Got cheated."
Xia Ling was silent, what grandma said made sense, wasn't she and Pei Ziheng the same?
She loved so passionately that she was like a moth to the flame, looking for death and survival. In the end, she was riddled with scars and even lost her life. The one you like the most may not be the most suitable, it may just be a hothead...
She smiled to herself.
"Girl, what's the matter?" Grandma Ye spread out the quilt and pulled her to chat, "What kind of boy likes our Ling Yatou? He is really discerning."
Xia Ling laughed softly when Grandma Ye said it.
After thinking about it, she said: "He...sometimes is very nice, and sometimes he is very annoying. He takes good care of me and protects me when I am in danger. He often pretends to look for opportunities to give me gifts, and he also makes excuses for some people. The jealousy thing is really too much. I have clearly not agreed to be his girlfriend, so what right does he have to control me? "
Xia Ling started talking to Grandma Ye. Once she started talking, she couldn't stop talking.
Grandma Ye sat nearby and listened with a smile, nodding from time to time. Did this girl realize that she actually liked that boy? This kind of childlike attitude is obviously caused by being in emotional troubles... "This boy is good, when will he bring it to grandma to see?" Grandma Ye said.
Xia Ling was stunned for a moment: "Grandma, what does this mean? I already said that he has nothing to do with me."
"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter," Grandma Ye smiled, "But Ling Yatou, when you look for a boyfriend in the future, you have to follow this standard. You know, those who know how to feel hot and cold will be able to live a good life in the future."
Xia Ling listened to Grandma Ye's words, Li Lei's handsome smile appeared in her heart, and she blushed slightly.
That night, the grandfather and grandson slept in the same room and chatted for a long time. When she finally fell asleep, Xia Ling thought to herself that it felt good to have a home, and she really wanted a home of her own...
The next day, Xia Ling got up.
I found that Grandma Ye was no longer in the room. When I went out and asked, I found out that the old man had eaten too much at the birthday party last night and had gastrointestinal discomfort. He was sent to the hospital by his second aunt and eldest aunt early this morning.
Xia Ling was a little worried and asked her fourth uncle, is grandma's condition serious?
The fourth uncle said it was okay. The eldest aunt called back from the hospital and said that she would just give him some prescription for digestion and she would be back in the afternoon.
Xia Ling felt relieved.
The people around me were also idle, and my fourth uncle suggested that everyone go to the fields to play. He said: "This is Mr. Nan's first time in the countryside. We should take him around to visit. Xiao Ling rarely comes back, so we just want to walk together and feel the changes in our hometown."
Father Ye and Aunt Liu expressed their intention to go.
Xia Ling saw that everyone was so positive and it would not be appropriate to go alone. Besides, this was actually her first time in the countryside and she wanted to see what the real countryside was like, so she agreed.
The group of people walked along the path and through the fields. As far as the eye could see, there were patches of green farmland, with a large lake nearby filled with lotus flowers. The little girl Yingying from the second uncle's family clapped her hands: "Third uncle, fourth uncle, I want to take a boat to pick lotus flowers over there!" With a finger of her little hand, she pointed to the only one among the thousands of continuous green leaves. A small pointed horn, a tender pink lotus flower, is particularly eye-catching among the large blue waves and green leaves.
The fourth uncle smiled, found two boats nearby, and invited everyone to get on the boat and cruise the lake.
Xia Ling stepped on one of them first, followed closely by Nan Sheng. Xia Ling frowned but said nothing. Nan Sheng smiled at her in a friendly manner and said in a very gentlemanly manner: "The wind is strong on the bow of the boat. You sit behind me and I will paddle."
Xia Ling was happy to stay away from him and sit down.
The small boat could not accommodate many people. The fourth uncle and fourth aunt came up next, and it was full.
The rest of the people got on another boat, and the two boats rowed slowly towards the lake, with lotus leaves in the fields. At first, everyone could still joke with each other, but after a while, the two boats split into two directions, and they could no longer see each other. .
“There is a pavilion in the middle of the lake over there, let’s go and have a rest.” Suddenly, Nan Sheng said with a smile.
