Chapter 136 Old Child



It's easy to avoid an open attack, but hard to guard against a hidden one. This is always the case. After a brief thought, Li Mingxi made a suggestion to Dong Sisi.

Tell her not to eat or drink anything casually if she goes home with Dad Dong.

Dong Sisi listened to Li Mingxi's instructions and knew that she was worried about her, so she agreed with a smile.

Although he heard Dong Sisi's repeated assurances, Li Mingxi was still worried. He thought that he should come to the county town more often when he had time during this period to prevent Dong Sisi from getting into trouble.

In this way, the two chatted for a long time, until it was time to go to work, Dong Sisi reluctantly parted with Li Mingxi.

After Li Mingxi and Dong Sisi separated, they thought that there was nothing to do in the county town, so they decided to ride their bikes back.

After leaving the street where the textile factory was located, Li Mingxi suddenly remembered that she did not give anything to Chen Kangdao this time, so she turned and went to Chen Kangdao's house.

Li Mingxi stood at the door and knocked for a while, then heard a voice coming from the yard.

"Who is it?"

Knowing he was being questioned, Li Mingxi quickly spoke up, "It's me, Xiaoxi, Grandpa Chen."

Chen Kangdao was originally in the house talking to his old wife when he heard someone knocking on the door. He walked into the yard and asked, only to find out that it was Li Mingxi.

So he hurried to the front door and opened it.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Li Mingxi standing at the door holding the bike with something hanging on the handlebar.

Looking at Li Mingxi's expression, Chen Kangdao knew that she was here to deliver something to his family.

I originally wanted to let her in, but when I thought about how this girl had spoken well of that boy this morning, I felt very annoyed.

As a result, Chen Kangdao's tone unconsciously hardened, "Why are you here again?"

Li Mingxi looked at Chen Kangdao's slightly angry face and knew that the old man must still be angry about what happened this morning.

This old man is really a child, but he is quite interesting. Since he is angry, I will just coax him.

Thinking of this, Li Mingxi's tone softened and he began to explain, "Isn't it because I'm thinking about this thing? I haven't sent it to you yet?"

"No, we don't want your things anymore. Don't send them to us again!"

Chen Kangdao said this, but what he was thinking in his heart was, this girl is not bad, she is not angry even though I spoke to her in this tone, she has a pretty good character.

Li Mingxi was not in a good mood, she just didn't want to argue with him.

Besides, as soon as Li Mingxi heard what old man Chen said, he knew that the old man must have done it on purpose.

Thinking of the old man Chen who has no children now, Li Mingxi felt a little uncomfortable.

In order to make the old man feel better, Li Mingxi simply lowered his posture.

"Grandpa Chen, look at what you said. No matter what, I have to come to see you. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would be like now!"

Listening to Li Mingxi's words, Chen Kangdao knew that she was flattering him, but he liked it.

Why didn’t I realize before that this little girl is so sweet?

Seeing what she said, Chen Kangdao decided to let Li Mingxi go, so he simply said, "Since you say so, little girl, I will believe you for now."

So Li Mingxi pushed the cart and followed Chen Kangdao into the yard.

But as soon as he entered the yard, he ran into Sun Xiu Lian.

Li Mingxi hurriedly greeted, "Hello, Grandma Sun!"

"Xiao Xi, why are you here?"

Sun Xiulian was a little surprised to see Li Mingxi coming home.

The reason why Sun Xiulian went out of the house was actually because she was a little worried about her husband.

She was lying in the room just now and heard someone knocking on the door, so she thought of asking the old man to open the door.

But the man who went to open the door didn't come back. She was afraid that the group of people had come again, but there was no sound outside.

She wondered if something had happened to her old man, so she hurriedly got out of bed and went out of the house to look. Unexpectedly, she saw Li Mingxi.

God knows, she was very angry when she heard the old man say in the morning that he had also driven Li Mingxi away. Now, she was very happy to see Li Mingxi.

When Chen Kangdao saw his wife coming out, he hurried forward to hold her arm, muttering to himself.

"Why did you leave the house, old woman? Aren't you feeling unwell? Come on, I'll help you go back to the house and lie down."

Hearing Chen Kangdao say this, Sun Xiulian complained as if no one was around, "I just saw that you didn't come back, so I thought I'd come out and take a look."

"That won't work either. Go, go, go, go back and lie down." Chen Kangdao said as he was about to help her into the house.

Sun Xiulian stayed in the house all day and felt bored. When she heard Chen Kangdao wanted her to go into the house and lie down again, she naturally refused.

"I'm not as weak as you say. Didn't the doctor tell me that it's good to get out and move around more and get some sun?"

Chen Kangdao saw that his wife looked in good spirits. He knew in his heart that she really wanted to bask in the sun when he heard her say that, so he just let her do it and said nothing more.

So Chen Kangdao went straight into the main room and moved two benches, one for Li Mingxi and one for himself to sit on.

As for Sun Xiulian, she was lying on a reclining chair in the yard, which she had made when her son came home.

At this moment, Sun Xiulian has started chatting with Li Mingxi.

I don’t know what Li Mingxi said, but it made Sun Xiulian laugh out loud.

Chen Kangdao sat next to the other person and was very happy watching them chatting.

Ever since her son passed away, Sun Xiulian hasn't been as happy as she is today.

Chen Kangdao looked at Li Mingxi and thought for a moment that it would be great if his son was still alive, then the old woman would definitely be happy too!

Or it would be better to leave a child behind, which would be better than the two of them living forever like now.

For a moment, thinking of his relatives, Chen Kangdao felt very annoyed.

At this time, Sun Xiulian's voice rang out, "Old man, don't you think so?"

Chen Kangdao didn't hear what Sun Xiulian said, and still stared at Sun Xiulian blankly.

Sun Xiulian looked at Chen Kangdao staring at her in a daze and asked in confusion, "Old man, what's wrong with you? Why are you staring at Xiaoxi and me?"

Chen Kangdao shook his head. "Nothing, nothing, I was just thinking about something!"

Sun Xiulian thought Chen Kangdao was thinking about the troubles at home, and thinking about those things made her very upset.

But she still tried to comfort him, "Don't think about it. What's the point of thinking so much? Didn't you always tell me to relax and say that less is more? Why can't you figure it out again?"

Listening to his wife's words, Chen Kangdao knew that she had misunderstood and quickly explained, "No, I was just watching you and Xiaoxi getting along together, and I thought it would be nice if our son had a child, so that you wouldn't be so sad every day.

Li Mingxi felt a little uncomfortable listening to what the old couple said.

The old couple worked hard for most of their lives, but they only had one child, who unfortunately died.

Li Mingxi wanted to help them, but unfortunately, she was neither an official nor anything else, so she couldn't take care of the matter.

Chen Kangdao's relatives are just scoundrels. If you want to deal with such people, you have to be even more scoundrel.
