Oh no! I forgot about that fierce little girl.
Lin Yunliang quickly adopted the expression he used to coax his little granddaughter. "Oh dear, Grandpa Mu got so anxious that he forgot. Don't be angry with Grandpa Mu, I'll bring you a little dress when I come back, okay?"
Sisi rolled her eyes inwardly. She really didn't know how he'd amassed such a fortune. Probably just because of his auspicious name. "Sit down."
"Okay." After sitting down, Lin Yunliang said, "What color dress do you like? Tell Grandpa Mu and he'll buy it for you."
Sisi looked at Lin Yunliang and asked, "Would you let someone you don't know anything about guard the door?"
"Of course not, matters of the sect are of utmost importance..." Lin Yunliang finally realized what was happening. He had sensed something was amiss. "You...you know me?"
"People who deal with medicinal herbs year-round have a faint medicinal smell on them."
Lin Yunliang wanted to say that there are many people who deal with medicinal herbs all year round, so how can you be sure it's me? However, given his age and his connection with the Yun family, it's not hard to guess who he is.
He always thought that Sisi could act with impunity in the Yun family because of Lao Hei, because the Yun family didn't want to argue with a little kid.
"Let's go inside and talk."
"good."
After Lin Yunliang led Sisi and Lao Hei to his house, he looked at Sisi and said, "Since you've guessed who I am, I won't hide it from you anymore. I went out this time to see if anyone can cure your great-grandfather's illness?"
"Your intentions are good. But have you ever considered that what you're doing might actually harm my grandfather? Harm our whole family?"
Lin Yunliang wanted to say, "How could that be? Don't scare me." But what had just happened told him he couldn't underestimate Sisi. "What do you mean?"
"You know that the new emperor is currently locked in a fierce battle with the former seventh prince, who is now a rebel, right?"
"I know." This fierce little girl didn't make him stand guard at the door every day; instead, she let him go out for a stroll every few days.
"If the new emperor wants my great-grandfather to go back and help him, should my great-grandfather go back or not? My great-grandfather used to support the new emperor, but the new emperor seized the throne by force, it was not passed down to him by the late emperor."
“You know my great-grandfather, he was incredibly stubborn. In his eyes, the new emperor was no longer the gentleman he knew from the moment he snatched the throne from the seventh prince, and he was no longer worthy of sitting on that throne.”
"Also, it's still unknown who will win between the new emperor and the seventh prince."
"If the new emperor wins, that would be fine; only my great-grandfather would be troubled."
“If the new emperor loses, our whole family will have to be buried with him.”
"Tell me, is it better for my great-grandfather to be lucid or confused now?"
"Tell me, does my great-grandfather want to be clear-headed or confused?"
"Do you think my great-grandfather deliberately fell from the tree?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yunliang immediately said, "Impossible, your great-grandfather wasn't that kind of person."
"Why is it impossible? Didn't I just say that from the moment the new emperor killed and seized the throne, my great-grandfather felt that he was not a gentleman and did not deserve to sit in that position? But now he is sitting in that position. If he asks my great-grandfather to help him clear his name and cheer for him, will my great-grandfather help him or not?"
"..."
"Should I help? I can't get over it in my heart. If I don't help, it will cause trouble for my children and grandchildren."
"..."
"If I had you, wouldn't you rather fall from the tree?"
"..."
“Come on, come back with me. If you go to find someone to treat my great-grandfather now, you won’t help him, you’ll harm him and our whole family.”
"..."
"By the way, did you also die of old age in your hometown?"
"yes."
Sure enough. "Look, you died peacefully in your old age so as not to bring trouble to your children and grandchildren. What's so strange about my great-grandfather deliberately falling from the tree to avoid doing something against his conscience and to avoid bringing trouble to us?"
"...Your great-grandfather could fake his death like me."
"My great-grandfather was rather slow-witted." How could he fake his death when he was supposed to be doing well?
Lin Yunliang didn't like hearing this. "Your great-grandfather wasn't stupid, he just didn't like to lie. Besides, I'm just a nobody, nobody would care if I died. Your great-grandfather is different, if he died, lots of people would come to pay their respects. It would be troublesome if someone noticed."
"That's true. Let's go eat, then go back home. There's a ton of stuff to do there. By the way, shouldn't you also think about your children and grandchildren?"
"No need, I've already arranged everything."
"Really? You knew back then that the new emperor and the seventh prince would fight? You knew the world would be in chaos?"
How could an ordinary citizen like him know these things? "The world will descend into chaos?"
"Maybe yes, maybe no. Do you want to take a chance, or do you want to be on the safe side?"
"Of course, it's just in case."
"Then you should think it over carefully. Let's go eat."
After finishing their meal, Lin Yunliang went back with Sisi.
Sisi and Lao Hei rode horses, while Lin Yunliang walked.
After Sisi's grandfather returned from the military camp, he asked Sisi's grandmother to ask Fengchan how to appease Sisi.
Upon hearing this, Feng Chan quickly said, "She's just a junior, why are you trying to coax her? I'll give her a good talking to when she gets back."
"No, this was originally your father-in-law's oversight. Tell your mother what Xiao Liu likes, and your father-in-law will buy it for him."
"No need. I'll talk to her and she'll be fine."
“Yes. It will teach your father-in-law a lesson, so he won’t always treat Xiao Liu like a child.”
