It was already very cold in the capital in November. At night, Wang Cuilan took her children to bed early.

"Knock knock knock"

There was a rapid knock on the door outside.

"Who is it?"

Wang Cuilan put on her clothes and stood up. The door outside had already been opened by Aunt Zhou and Aunt An who had gotten up quickly.

"It's me!"

Seeing the old man, Wang Cuilan was very surprised, "Grandpa, why are you here at this time? What happened?"

Wang Cuilan's heart was pounding with nervousness, but thinking of the old man's health, she quickly called out, "Grandpa, if there is anything, let's go inside and talk. It's cold outside."

The old man waved his hand and said, "I just stopped by to tell you that someone will leave for the country where A Zheng is tomorrow morning. If you have anything to bring to Xie Zheng, give it to me now and I'll have someone take it to him."

Wang Cuilan said it was urgent, and then immediately went back to the house to pack up.

The things are ready, so just pack them up, it doesn’t take much time.

It's just writing letters, which takes a lot of time.

It was more than half an hour later when the old man left again.

Wang Cuilan went into bed again, but couldn't fall asleep.

Although the old man didn't say it, Wang Cuilan could also feel that Xie Zheng's purpose of going abroad this time might not be as simple as it seemed.

His situation is full of danger and he could die at any time.

The old man also knew it, but he did not stop it. That is to say, what Xie Zheng is doing now is very important to the country, and it has reached the final stage (critical moment).

Tears rolled down Wang Cuilan's eyes and she stayed awake all night until dawn.

The old man also had a sleepless night.

Sitting at the desk, with trembling hands, he handed the package he had taken from Wang Cuilan last night to his secretary, "Go, have someone find a way to deliver it to Xie Zheng and tell him to stay alive as long as possible, because his wife and children are still waiting for him at home!"

The secretary nodded, holding back tears. "Don't worry, I'll have someone tell Xie Zheng what you said."

.

Recently, Wang Cuixiang always felt that her sister was acting strangely.

He often stares blankly and has a much worse temper.

She is such a well-behaved person, but she has been scolded by her sister several times recently.

With her sister's behavior, if her brother-in-law was not at home, Wang Cuixiang would have suspected that her sister was pregnant?

The symptoms are so similar.

"Sister, sister, sister! This pot has already been watered. If you water it again, it will die!"

Seeing Wang Cuilan picking up the kettle to water the orchid that had already been watered, Wang Cuixiang quickly stopped her.

Wang Cuixiang snatched the kettle from her sister's hand and took her aside. She said in a gentle voice, "Sister, have you encountered any problems recently? Tell me, and I will work with you to find a solution."

Wang Cuilan shook her head and did not tell the truth.

"What could possibly happen to me? I just have too many classes lately and I feel overwhelmed."

Wang Cuixiang thought to herself, "I don't believe you! If you, who always comes out on top, can't handle it, how can the others survive?"

To be honest, Wang Cuixiang was still a little sad because she didn't hear the truth from her sister.

However, Wang Cuixiang also discovered that through that conversation, her sister Wang Cuilan's condition gradually improved.

Although his temper is still hot, he no longer gets dazed easily.

In this way, Wang Cuixiang also became happy.

.

At 4:30 in the afternoon, the last class of the day ends.

Wang Cuilan packed up her things and prepared to go home.

On the way, Wang Cuilan was blocked by someone.

"Wang Cuilan, let's talk."

"No time!" Wang Cuilan said these three words decisively and left.

He was caught by Li Zhao.

"Let go!" Wang Cuilan looked down at the hand that was holding her, her face darkened and her voice was as cold as ice.

"Wang Cuilan, please help me! I know that among all these younger generations, the old man likes you the most besides Xie Zheng."

Li Zhao seemed unaware of the coldness on Wang Cuilan's body, and held Wang Cuilan's hand a little tighter.

"Can you help me put in a good word in front of the old man and ask him to agree to my marriage with Xie Rui?"

"Xie Rui and I have been together for four years. If I can't marry him, I will be too embarrassed to see anyone!"

In fact, with Li Zhao's pride, he would never do anything like holding Wang Cuilan's arm and telling her about himself and Xie Rui.

But wasn’t Li Zhao panicking?

Some time ago, Liu Guixiang pretended to be sick and hospitalized in order to prevent her youngest son from marrying Li Zhao. In the end, she was ruthlessly exposed, which made Liu Guixiang very embarrassed.

After that, Xie Rui ignored his mother.

Who would have thought that a week ago, Xie Rui's mother was really sick. She was seriously ill and was about to breathe out more than breathe in. She was about to die.

At this moment, how could Xie Rui still remember being angry? He simply said whatever the fuck he said.

His mother didn't like Li Zhao and didn't want Li Zhao to be her daughter-in-law, so Xie Rui agreed.

His mother wants to see her youngest son get married before he dies, so she arranges a blind date for him, although Xie Rui has not agreed yet.

But in Li Zhao's view, it is only a matter of time.

Li Zhao was unwilling to accept this. Why was Xie Rui's mother still unable to see her even though she had been admitted to Huazhong University and became a college student with a bright future?

I still feel that she is not worthy of Xie Rui. Is it just because she is a country girl?

But why can Wang Cuilan, who is also from the countryside, marry Xie Rui’s cousin Xie Zheng?

How is Wang Cuilan better than her?

After thinking about it, Li Zhao felt that the problem lay with the old man.

The old man liked Wang Cuilan very much, so she was able to marry Xie Zheng.

What if the old man likes me too?

Then can she also marry Xie Rui?

As for the opinion of Xie Rui's mother, Liu Guixiang? Who cared at that time?

Li Zhao had already found out clearly that in a family like the Xie family, the person in charge has almost absolute say.

As long as it was what he said, the younger generation had to listen even if they were dissatisfied.

Li Zhao now wants Wang Cuilan to help her persuade the old man to agree to her marriage with Xie Rui.

In that case, there would be nothing that could be done even if Liu Guixiang disagreed.

Li Zhao's heart was full of hope, and he looked at Wang Cuilan with burning eyes.

Wang Cuilan ignored her, forcibly pried her hands apart and said coldly.

"If you want to marry Xie Rui, that's your own business."

"Please don't set your sights on me. Otherwise... the price you'll have to pay... I don't think you'll be happy to see."

Wang Cuilan's light gaze fell on Li Zhao, which made her shiver inexplicably.

I no longer had the strength to hold on to Wang Cuilan. I could only watch her walk away, gradually disappearing from my sight.

The sun was high in the sky and the weather was bright, but Li Zhao felt unprecedentedly cold.

I looked up...and saw leaves swaying in the distance.

Oh, it's windy...
