Chapter 411 Garden House
No matter how much she begged and acted coquettishly, she got no response from the man.
Lin Yiyi was a little annoyed. She snorted and gave him a glare, "You are so mysterious. Forget it."
Her tone was a bit fierce, but she held the man's hand and walked towards the sofa. Lin Yiyi wanted to ask about her son's situation, but considering the man's stinginess, she started to care about him first.
"How have you been recently? Are you used to it? Are you still having stomachache?"
The man tilted his chin, groaned, and looked at her with a serious face, "You only remember to ask me now?"
Where did this spoiled husband and resentful man come from?
Lin Yiyi looked at his arrogant expression and rolled her eyes in her heart, but said the sweetest words.
"I've wanted to ask you this for a long time, but I didn't dare to bother you too much while you were driving.
I got you a stomach-nourishing recipe from an old Chinese doctor, and I also brought you…"
"Oh, by the way, why didn't I see you bring up those two jars of pickles?" Lin Yiyi felt a little dry in the mouth. She licked her lips and almost forgot something important.
Pickle jar?
Zhao Sheng laughed, picked up the glass on the coffee table and fed her water, then leaned in and kissed her cheek, "My stomach may feel uncomfortable sometimes, and since I've prescribed the medicine, you have to be responsible for boiling the medicine for me.
The jar was in the car, how could you use it to pack pickles?"
Lin Yiyi was speechless when she saw him getting more and more demanding. She reached out to pull his hair. Even if he didn't have a buzz cut, she would have easily vented her anger in secret.
Bad guys are still bad guys.
"The pickles my sister-in-law gave me were wrapped in plastic wrap. I happened to have some jars in the cellar, so I picked them up, washed them, and packed them in pickles."
"When you saw the boxes in the cellar, didn't you think of anything else?" Zhao Sheng moved his arm around her a little higher and looked at her expression, amused by her confusion.
Glancing at the few strands of hair she had plucked, Lin Yiyi quickly threw them away, blinking her eyes and reacting a little too slowly, "What are you thinking about?"
"You don't think it's something valuable?"
"Valuable? Object? I don't understand." Lin Yiyi stared with her almond-shaped eyes, pretending to be ignorant, waiting for the man to tell the answer himself.
The man smiled faintly, "What if I tell you it's something from the old days?"
Lin Yiyi glared at her clam spirit husband. He was really smart. Anyway, she wouldn't get any handle from him.
"Don't worry about it. It's the perfect container for pickles. It doesn't matter whether it's valuable or what era it's from. It means nothing to me."
If it's valuable, can I sell it for money or something?
Ignorance is not a crime. However, if one knows that a cultural relic or antique is present but does not hand it in or keeps it privately or even resells it, then one is breaking the law knowingly.
She continued to talk nonsense, "The bowls, chopsticks, plates and chopsticks are all sets, whose dowry is it?
To be honest, it's ugly and very ordinary. The mouths of both jars have been patched, but I didn't notice it until I cleaned them. "
Even if I discovered it at that time, I had no choice. These two round jars were the only ones suitable for storing pickles. The others were too small.
The seasoning is pretty good.
“…”
Zhao Sheng heard that she was really disgusted and looked down on him, so he didn't have the interest to explain her origins in detail.
After Lin Yiyi finished complaining, she got down to business, "I brought the dirt you gave me. It's in the pickle jar."
Zhao Sheng sighed. She was not too stupid. She was simple-minded and a little clever. It was normal that she could not distinguish these values.
Just put pickles in it.
"How do you deal with the yard?"
Lin Yiyi talked about her experience of changing the land deed and briefly mentioned her failure in the exam.
Then he changed his tone, looking mysterious, "Do you know who I met on my way back to Lihua Alley?"
The man shook his head. Seeing her cute expression, he couldn't help itching to touch her. "You say."
Lin Yiyi didn't expect that the story of Zhao Sheng's grandparents would be so exciting, with a tragic love story in the war years, a young lady studying abroad, and a soldier who gave up literature to join the military in the old times.
She told the story vividly, as if she were there.
"Finally, he asked me to help him deliver a letter to Zhong Bijun."
Of course, she had opened the letter and read it, but who knew what was inside? What if she had to check it at the checkpoint?
It was because she opened the letter that Lin Yiyi discovered that the person who sent her the letter two days ago saying that he failed the exam was this old man.
Zhao Sheng's expression remained unchanged, he just laughed slightly mockingly.
Lin Yiyi opened her suitcase and took out the letter. "Do you want to give the letter to Grandma Zhong?"
She felt that Zhong Bijun actually loved Qian Sinian very much, and even though they were divorced, she still loved him, but at the same time she hated him very much.
They were divorced and separated before 1940, so why did they wait until 1949 to leave the North with their son?
They left just when the deadline for free travel between the north and the south was approaching.
Zhao Sheng put the letter aside and pulled her into his arms. "I'll give it to my father in a few days. He'll make the decision. You don't have to worry about it."
Lin Yiyi nodded and hung on Zhao Sheng again, using him as a pillow. "Why don't I see anyone else at home? Where are Mozi and Youyou?"
"The little one is playing in the backyard at this hour. His parents have their own jobs and will be back after get off work. I have sent all the servants away."
Two years ago, my sweetheart was pregnant. She was scared and cried while having a check-up in the hospital. Her eyes were red and she was afraid of being seen and laughed at, so she lifted the hem of his clothes to cover her face and hid it all the way.
Zhao Sheng knew that she loved to dress up and didn't like to embarrass herself in front of outsiders. He was also afraid that she would be suspicious, so he explained the family situation in detail again and then took her to the backyard.
Lin Yiyi never dreamed that she would become the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family. She was stunned when she saw the back garden.
Go downstairs, walk around the hall, go out from the back door of the side hall, walk along the gravel path for more than thirty steps, and you will see a European-style stained glass building. Push open the door and you will see an ecological botanical garden.
Forgive her for not recognizing these plants; she has never seen the world.
There were faint sounds of people talking in the botanical garden, especially a baby-like voice. Lin Yiyi showed a bright smile on her face and was led inside by her husband.
Walking around the path, I saw a place for afternoon tea in the middle, and next to it were two little kids riding rocking horses.
"Master, Madam."
When the nannies Fang and Xia saw the two people holding hands, they greeted them with a smile, and then turned the little master riding the rocking horse in another direction.
"Mozi and Youyou have grown so big." After not seeing them for more than eight months, Lin Yiyi could hardly recognize them. They had grown a lot.
Changes in his dress and hairstyle, and his slicked-back hair like his dad's.
It is no longer the chestnut hairstyle with two frizzy hairs.
When Youyou saw his father, he dismounted and ran over to him, holding out his hand, "Daddy, give me a hug."
Mozi still slowly rocked the wooden horse back and forth, carefully looking at the person who suddenly appeared. After a while, he pouted and asked, "Are you Mommy?"
Lin Yiyi turned her head to look at Zhao Sheng who was holding Youyou, her eyes full of surprise and her heart filled with sweetness, "How could he remember that I am his mother?"
Could it be that the speaking lessons she had learned previously had worked?
Zhao Sheng patted his son's butt and asked him to call for help, but Youyou hid in his neck like a shy little girl without showing his face.
"We have your photo at home. Sister Xia and Sister Fang have taught them how to recognize people."
Being ignored, Mozi got off the wooden horse and trotted to Lin Yiyi, frowning unhappily, "Are you mommy?"
"Yes, can I hug you?" Lin Yiyi squatted down and looked at her son who was like a little gentleman. She thought he was very cute.
Mozi thought about it for a while, nodded reluctantly, and smelled her fragrance, sniffing around with his little nose.
Lin Yiyi almost sprained her waist while holding the little fat boy. She could only hold him for a while before letting go and pinching his little hands and face to play with him.
Mozi became unhappy after being pinched for a while and rode back on the rocking horse. Unfortunately, Youyou couldn't avoid it and was held by his father and was pinched.
At this moment, Lin Yiyi felt very happy. It was a happy time for the family, and only Youyou was whining and protesting and hiding away.
