Old Mrs. Wu was reborn, returning to an era where her children still depended on her hard work and sacrifice!
In her previous life, she would have shattered her bones and sold her very essenc...
Sister Liu… “I’m asking who you’re buried with.”
Old Man Guan glanced at Sister Liu several times, but Sister Liu avoided his gaze.
"You're not going to be buried with your old man anymore? You want to be buried with me?"
Sister Liu nodded, sighed, and recounted what her son had told her yesterday. "When he said those things, I thought of you. My son thinks he's smart, and his father-in-law isn't stupid either. He just had a stroke, not a brain injury. Sigh, whether he succeeds in his scheme or not, I didn't get what he wanted, so he won't let me be buried in the ancestral grave. But what difference does it make if I'm buried or not? I'll still die. If you don't mind, we can be buried together."
Sister Liu asked this question with some trepidation. She hadn't borne any children for Old Man Guan and was in her second marriage, so she shouldn't be buried with him. But she had been alone for too long and didn't want to be all alone after she died.
Old Man Guan held Sister Liu's hands and said, "I have no children and have lived a lonely life. I never thought that you would be willing to stay with me in the end. It doesn't matter how many years we live. After we die, we will still be husband and wife."
Sister Liu nodded, her eyes red.
When Old Man Guan came downstairs, his face was radiant with happiness, and Sister Liu nudged him, her cheeks slightly flushed.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that these two had become a couple.
Old Man Guan: "Brother and sister-in-law, from now on this person will be your sister-in-law, Mancang Zhi Qiu. Call her Aunt."
Li Mancang...
Wu Zhi Qiu...
Sister Liu patted Old Man Guan on the shoulder and said, "What nonsense are you spouting? It's the same as before, everyone talking their own way."
Li Mancang rubbed his old face, realizing he almost gained an aunt.
"Aren't you going to have two tables?" the old man joked.
Old Man Guan: "We absolutely have to do it. I've checked, today is an auspicious day. Tonight, we'll have two tables at a five-star hotel. That'll be our wedding day, and we'll move in together."
Sister Liu... She'd rather disappear into a crack in the floor. Didn't she say she'd think about it some more? Why is she doing it today?
"Shut up, shut your mouth!"
Old Guan chuckled and said, "Are you embarrassed? We're all family, what's there to be embarrassed about? Brother, I'll live on the top floor for now, and we'll move out after I buy a house in this complex."
"Stay at my place for now, and move back after we finish buying the house." Sister Liu pinched Old Man Guan, saying, "What kind of behavior is it to stay at someone else's house after getting married?"
"The upstairs is just sitting there empty anyway, why don't we rent it to you? Old Man Guan has trouble getting around, it would be more comfortable for him to live in an apartment building," the old lady said, trying to smooth things over as she noticed Liu's discomfort.
“Sister-in-law, I’ll pay the rent. Let’s rent it for a while, and move out once the house is renovated. Is that alright, old man?” Old Guan grabbed Sister Liu’s hand.
Sister Liu quickly pulled out her hand and said, "Let's live separately. I can take care of you. Don't bother Zhi Qiu and the others."
"I'll do whatever you say," Old Man Guan said with a silly grin.
The Li family couldn't bear to look. Even the cunning and ruthless Old Man Guan had come to this. Perhaps the two knew each other well, and Sister Liu couldn't possibly have schemed against him, thus lowering his guard.
The old man rubbed his under-eye bags and said, "Today was too rushed. There's nothing upstairs, so we have to buy everything on the spot. We'll treat everyone after we've bought everything."
Sister Liu nodded quickly, saying that even though everything was available upstairs, they couldn't just do it today.
Old Guan sighed, "Little Liu, we've lost two more days as husband and wife."
