Chapter 669 I'll Go Find Her
Li Xiang looked around, frowned, turned around and left.
Seeing this, Ji Yuanyuan hurriedly chased after him.
Qin Mucheng naturally followed Ji Yuanyuan closely.
Ji Yuanyuan quickly caught up with Li Xiang. She reached out and grabbed Li Xiang's arm, and whispered, "Where are you going? Stay quietly and don't let everyone worry about you."
Li Xiang is thirteen years old. He is well developed and about 1.5 meters tall.
She was only a head shorter than Ji Yuanyuan. She raised her head slightly and looked at Ji Yuanyuan, her eyes red. "I'll go find her."
Ji Yuanyuan quickly realized what Li Xiang was talking about.
It’s Meng Xiaoning.
"Why did you go to see her?"
"Grandpa was so good to her and to Li Jie. Now that grandpa is gone, why shouldn't they come?" Li Xiang said indignantly with his neck stiff.
Ji Yuanyuan didn't expect that this seemingly weak girl was so stubborn.
She reached out and took Li Xiang into her arms, whispering to him, "It's okay, Grandpa won't blame Li Jie. Let's not cause any trouble today and send Grandpa off properly, okay?"
To put it bluntly, if my grandfather knew about this, he might not be happy to see Meng Xiaoning.
What’s more, when a person dies, he is dead. How can the afterlife know about it?
Grandpa won’t know whether Li Jie comes or not.
All they have to do now is to send their grandfather off in a dignified manner.
Li Xiang lay in Ji Yuanyuan's arms, and his shoulders suddenly began to sob.
Ji Yuanyuan reached out and gently patted Li Xiang's shoulder.
When they returned, the yard was filled with wailing.
Liu Guihua hugged the four people with the surname Li and cried.
No one expected that Li Zhiming, who was fine yesterday, would suddenly pass away like this.
If the patient is bedridden for many days, they will be mentally prepared and perhaps feel less grief.
But the person who was eating with them yesterday has become a corpse today.
No one can bear this.
In rural areas, when an elder in a family passes away, there will be a special person to go to the relatives’ house to announce the death.
It was almost noon when Zhang Kun's parents and two younger brothers and sisters arrived.
When people get old, they become particularly sensitive to the separation of life and death.
Wang Yueju held Liu Guihua's hand, her eyes also filled with tears.
As soon as Zhang Kun's family left, Qin Xiaomin's family came.
Niu Ailan, Qin Zhiye and Qin Xiaojie came together.
Qin Xiaojie is already 34 years old and still single.
However, although his love life was not going well, he did achieve some success in his career.
When online stores first became popular a few years ago, Qin Xiaojie also took advantage of this favorable trend.
The initial online store was quite profitable. Qin Xiaojie turned his life around and his business grew bigger and bigger.
Opening an online store would give him more free time. In addition, Niu Ailan's health had not been very good, so Qin Xiaojie returned to S City.
There was a person who was responsible for keeping accounts at the door. Qin Xiaojie stepped forward and presented the gifts, then helped Niu Ailan into the yard.
On both sides of the hall, Li Miao stood in the corners and bowed to those who came in to pay their respects.
As soon as he entered the yard, Qin Xiaojie couldn't help but look at Li Miao.
Strangely enough, there is no unforgettable past between the two people.
We didn't even hold hands.
But after so many years, Qin Xiaojie couldn't help comparing the women around him with her.
No matter how outstanding a woman is, compared to her, she seems just so-so.
After so many years, it’s not that he doesn’t want to get married, it’s just that he hasn’t met someone he wants to marry.
Perhaps, he had already met her, but just missed her.
Qin Xiaojie looked at Li Miao with a look full of regret.
Niu Ailan keenly noticed her son's abnormality.
She looked up at her son.
Then he followed his son's gaze and saw Li Miao.
And Gong Wenbai beside Li Miao.
Every time Niu Ailan saw Li Miao, she felt annoyed.
I heard that Li Miao is living a happy life now. He teaches at a middle school in City B, owns a house in the city center, and has a lovely son.
In recent years, City B has developed so fast. It is a rare opportunity to teach in a middle school in City B.
If she hadn't been so meddling back then, Li Miao would have married Xiao Jie.
So Xiao Jie's life should be happy and stable now, right?
She had her grandson several years ago, so she doesn't have to envy other people's children every day.
But, I missed it in the end.
I heard that Gong Wenbai is particularly good to Li Miao, and his security business is now growing bigger and bigger.
Who would have thought that being a security guard could lead to a successful career?
However, their Xiao Jie is not bad either. He is young and promising, and he looks good too.
A few days ago, she saw a pretty girl take the initiative to talk to Xiao Jie.
Maybe Xiao Jie will figure it out someday.
As the saying goes, men are in their prime at 41.
"Mom!" Perhaps because Niu Ailan was looking at Li Miao too intently, Qin Xiaojie couldn't help but remind her in a low voice.
Niu Ailan quickly shifted her gaze, put on a sad expression, and looked at Liu Guihua: "Old sister, I'm sorry for putting you through this..."
…
What Ji Yuanyuan didn't expect was that Cheng Shuqin also came in the afternoon.
"Mom, why are you here?" Ji Yuanyuan hurried to greet her.
Cheng Shuqin whispered, "It's such a big deal, how can it be justified if no elder comes from home? Your grandfather is in poor health and can't sit in the car for too long, and the company can't do without your father, so they sent me as a representative."
As Cheng Shuqin spoke, she and Ji Yuanyuan walked into the yard.
Seeing Cheng Shuqin coming, everyone in the Li family was also very surprised.
After all, the Qin family is in BJ, and they are the grandchildren's in-laws, so they can't announce the death.
But unexpectedly, Cheng Shuqin came by herself.
Cheng Shuqin didn't stay in City S for too long. She returned to City B early the next morning.
Ji Ziang returned home at around 11 o'clock the next night.
Ji Ziang was a sentimental child. He immediately hugged the coffin in the hall and burst into tears.
Liu Guihua was on the other side of the coffin, caressing it with relief, muttering to herself, "Old man, except for Xiaojie and Mumu, all the children are here..."
…
During the three days that the body was kept at home, Meng Xiaoning and Li Jie never showed up.
On the day of the burial, the sky was gray and it started raining.
After returning home from the cemetery, Qin Xiaomin cooked dumplings for everyone.
She first served Ji Yuanyuan a bowl of dumpling soup and whispered, "Drink some soup to warm yourself up first. You can't be careless now."
After all, it was an occasion like this, and Li Xu was afraid that she would not have the heart to take care of Ji Yuanyuan, and she was even more afraid that Qin Mucheng, a grown man, would be too careless.
So she told Qin Xiaomin about Ji Yuanyuan's pregnancy.
These days, Qin Xiaomin has been taking good care of Ji Yuanyuan.
Qin Mucheng, who was standing next to him, quickly reached out to help Ji Yuanyuan take the soup, and then whispered, "Thank you, second aunt."
Qin Xiaomin waved her hand and walked away.
