Li Qingge was stopped when he went forward. The guard asked sternly, "Who are you looking for?"
"Excuse me, is this the address?" Li Qingge handed the address to him for closer inspection.
The guard's frown deepened after reading it. "What do you do?"
Li Qingge understood, it seemed like they knew each other. "I'm the granddaughter of Grandpa Li's comrade-in-arms. Does he live here?"
Comrades? The guards' attitude towards Li Qingge softened a bit. "Commander Li lives here, but you can't go in. Wait for me to inform him."
"Okay, thank you." Li Qingge was a little shocked. Old Man Li never said that his old comrade was the leader. No wonder the control here is strict and there are not many people around. It is probably a military compound.
The guard came back quickly, followed by a middle-aged woman who looked a little older. She looked particularly capable in a Dacron sweatshirt and gray trousers. While Li Qingge was looking at her, the other woman was also looking at her.
The little girl was not very old. She had delicate features on her palm-sized face and cold eyes. But her eyes were too cold. Thinking that she was a divorced woman, he felt a little more contempt for her.
"You are Qingge, right?" Aunt Lian said with a perfect smile on her face and her chin held high. "Come with me!"
Li Qingge concealed the emotions in his eyes and followed.
As the name suggests, the military district compound is where the army leaders live. It has a quiet environment and a superior geographical location. Rows of houses are neatly built like courtyards, with rooms in all directions.
Aunt Lian glanced at the young girl behind her who was looking around and had never seen the world. She snorted softly, "The old leader likes peace and quiet. Don't bother him with anything. You're from the countryside and don't know the rules. You should stay in your room and don't go out too much, so as not to do anything wrong and bring shame to the old leader!"
"..." Hearing this lecturing tone, if Li Qingge hadn't had rich experience in the entertainment industry in his previous life and had seen all kinds of people's faces, he would have been intimidated by her today!
Li Qingge didn't say anything, and Aunt Lian was even more disgusted. She said: "So he's still dumb! People from the countryside really don't have much experience ("▔□▔)
Arriving in front of a house that was larger than the courtyard house she passed by, Aunt Lian stepped inside. The yard was paved with bluestone bricks and was swept spotlessly clean. There were five main rooms on the north side, side rooms on the east and west sides, and a main gate on the south side. At five o'clock in the afternoon, there was still plenty of sunlight, which shone into the mahogany furniture in the main hall, adding a touch of elegance.
"Are you Old Li's granddaughter?"
Li Qingge listened to the voice and looked at the old man who slowly stood up from the desk. He smiled and said, "Hello, Grandpa Li. My name is Li Qingge."
The old man had white hair and a pair of piercing eyes. Every wrinkle on his face showed the traces of time. He walked closer with a cane and took a closer look. "How could Old Li give birth to such a beautiful granddaughter like you?!"
The smile on Li Qingge's lips widened, "My grandma is beautiful." Although she had never seen her, and her original body hadn't seen her either, but she had heard from her mother that her grandma was the most beautiful girl in the village when she was young!
Li Qingge can see some of his grandfather's shadow in Grandpa Li, and they share the same military honor!
"Haha, you're an interesting kid." Old Master Li liked Li Qingge more and more the more he looked at her. He waved his hand and motioned for her to sit down. "Just live here peacefully. If you need anything, just tell Aunt Lian directly!"
"Aunt Lian?" Li Qingge turned to look at her in feigned surprise. "I thought she was Grandpa Li's daughter-in-law." Turns out she was a servant for the Li family. Li Qingge didn't finish the rest of the sentence. Aunt Lian's mouth twitched violently. She had thought she was someone who could be easily bullied, but it turned out the little girl was quite scheming!
"She's not." Old Master Li chuckled and introduced Li Qingge, "My son and daughter-in-law don't live here because they're doing business. That rascal doesn't come here often, so there aren't many people at home. I'm very happy that you can stay here!"
Li Qingge guessed that the "rascal" Grandpa Li was talking about was probably his grandson. The old man treated her very kindly and did not have the airs of a leader at all.
"Qingge, are you hungry? What do you want to eat tonight?" Grandpa Li thought that Li Qingge had a hard time riding the bus today and had to report to the art troupe, so she must be tired. He quickly finished dinner so that he could go back to his room to rest.
"I'm fine with anything." Li Qingge is not picky about food. In her previous life, as an artist, she had to maintain her figure. Her three meals a day were standard meals prepared by a nutritionist, with little oil, salt and taste. As a result, her taste has always been simple and she doesn't have too high requirements for food.
"You're too thin! Let's make braised pork and fried lamb chops tonight!" Grandpa Li told Aunt Lian to prepare.
Aunt Lian got angry when she saw Li Qingge still sitting in the house and she had to busy herself with cooking and serving her. She thought that a wild girl from the countryside was not worthy of eating the food she cooked!
Aunt Lian didn't dare to disobey the old leader's orders, so she went to cook reluctantly.
"Is your grandfather in good health now?"
“Very tough.”
"How has he been doing these years?"
“…”
Li Qingge answered every question and chatted with Mr. Li until dinner time.
Mr. Li suddenly lamented that life has passed in a hurry for several decades, "I am old, old..."
"Grandpa Li is in good health. He will definitely live a long life!" Li Qingge was not good at saying nice things, but this was his sincere wish.
"Okay! Let's go eat!" Mr. Li is now 82 years old. If he lives to be 100, he still has more than ten years left. It's really a long time~
Only Mr. Li and Li Qingge were eating at the dinner table.
Aunt Lian is not "qualified" to sit at the table.
The cumin lamb chops and braised pork were so delicious that Li Qingge couldn't help but eat two more pieces.
Aunt Lian almost had the word "disdain" written on her face.
Old Li watched Li Qingge eat happily, and he also felt a good appetite.
