Chapter 113 Things left by Old Lady Lin
Go home and have a look!
Qing Wu's heart moved, and she turned to look at Pei Jue.
The tall and graceful man stood under the osmanthus tree, his body covered with osmanthus petals.
"Did you grow up here when you were a child?"
"Yes, my grandmother and I lived here, and later we went to Ningcheng."
When she and Old Lady Lin were taken to Ningcheng, Lin Xuecheng was already at home. A few years later, Old Lady Lin fell ill, and Qian Yuerong rushed her to the hospital, where she has been living ever since.
Pei Jue took two incense sticks from the car, lit them, and handed one to Qing Wu.
When did he prepare the incense in the car? How come she didn't know!
"You still have this with you?"
"Of course. This is my first time meeting grandma, so I have to let her know who I am."
Pei Jue had a nonchalant smile on his face, as if he had only done something that he was supposed to do, and it was nothing to be proud of!
"My fiancée has been so busy lately, so of course I have to do everything that I am supposed to do."
How did visiting grandma become his job?
This was clearly her own business, but he, who should be at the top of the pyramid, treated it as his own business...
Qing Wu's heart was beating violently!
She took the incense that Pei Jue handed over, kowtowed devoutly in front of Grandma Lin's tablet, and inserted the incense into the incense burner.
"Grandma, I'm back."
Qing Wu took out the admission notice that she had prepared long ago from her bag, and burned it together with Grandma Lin.
"Grandma, I promised you that you can go to the best university, you can rest assured!"
It was Mrs. Lin's long-cherished wish to let her go to university. The old lady who knew nothing wanted her granddaughter to get everything she thought was the best!
Although life was hard when she was a child, it was the happiest time of Qingwu's life!
Pei Jue squatted down and placed a photo of him and Qingwu in front of the incense burner.
"Grandma, I am Pei Jue, Xiaowu's fiancé. I will take good care of Xiaowu in the future and won't let you worry about her."
"When was the photo prepared?"
Pei Jue smiled and reached out to touch Qingwu's head.
His eyes were full of tenderness that was hard to conceal, just like the afterglow of the setting sun outside the window.
"I planned to come and see grandma a long time ago. At that time, I had already thought of what to say to grandma. I had to let grandma meet her grandson-in-law. The photo will stay here."
The old horse head stood at the gate of the yard and waved to Qing Wu.
"Miss, I have something to tell you."
Pei Jue shook Qing Wu's hand, "Go ahead, I also have something to say to grandma alone."
What could he say to grandma?
Qing Wu looked at him with some doubts, but met Pei Jue's firm eyes and had to agree.
She walked out of the yard and stood in front of the old horse head.
"What's wrong?"
The old horse head handed Qing Wu a cloth bag with a small osmanthus embroidered on it. It was obviously a cloth bag made by old lady Lin herself when she was alive.
The old lady was frugal all her life, and the few bags she made lasted her whole life. But every year she would travel across mountains and rivers to other towns to buy a lot of beautiful fabrics to make clothes for Qingwu.
She grew up fast, but Old Lady Lin was unwilling to make clothes a size bigger, always saying that suitable clothes are more beautiful, and that growing taller is a good thing, so grandma will make new ones for her daughter.
"This is what the old lady left for you. She said she would give it to you when you come back."
Did Old Lady Lin leave something for her before she died?
Qingwu carefully opened the cloth bag and found a bank card and a key inside.
"The password of the bank card is the birthday of the eldest lady. This key is the safe of the same bank. The old lady said that you know the number. She left something for you in the safe."
Qing Wu looked at the bank card and key in front of her, her heart was both bitter and warm.
"When did grandma give it to you?"
"A long time ago, before you went to Ningcheng, the old lady gave it to me. She said that after she left, when the eldest lady came back with her aunt, she would give it to you. This is the dowry that the old lady saved for you."
As the old horse head spoke, he quietly wiped his tears.
"I'm so lucky to have you in my life. I have hope for the rest of my life..."
Most people in this village are very poor, but Old Lady Lin raised Qing Wu in her hands and raised her so well.
"Don't ask me anything you want to know. I promised the old lady that I can't tell you, but I think she will tell you. Go check the safe."
The old horseman wiped away his tears, sat at the gate of the yard and took two puffs of dry cigarettes. His eyes were full of loneliness and endless longing for his old friend.
"I know, Uncle Ma, you should take care of yourself too."
The old horseman nodded, looked at Qing Wu with satisfaction, and suddenly came up to him and smiled.
"Miss, why don't you leave tonight? I clean the room every day. You see, it's getting dark now. It's not safe to drive. It's not easy for you to drive back. Just stay for one night before leaving!"
Qing Wu looked at the old horse head speechlessly.
It is indeed unsafe to drive out of the small mountain village at night, but this old house has not been occupied for many years. It is not appropriate to stay
here for one night. She didn't care. Pei Jue was the helmsman of the Pei Group after all. She couldn't bear to stay here for one night...
"I have a way to go out."
The old horse head rolled his eyes and raised his voice towards Pei Jue in the house: "Aunt, you see, it's so late now, why don't you stay at home with the young lady for one night? And talk to the old lady. The old lady will definitely be happy to see you!"
Qing Wu: "..."
Pei Jue walked out of the house, and some moonlight fell on his dark windbreaker, making it bright.
His aura was as gentle as jade, and he had the demeanor of a gentleman.
"Okay, Xiao Wu and I will stay and accompany grandma."
Hearing that he actually agreed, the old horse head was extremely surprised. He patted Qing Wu's shoulder triumphantly and whispered: "This is a good man. The old lady can rest assured! I will prepare dinner for you!"
The old horse head ran away.
Qing Wu rubbed her eyebrows and said helplessly: "There is no need to stay here for a night. Can't your car be turned into a helicopter? If you are tired, I will drive it."
Pei Jue held her hand and held it in his palm: "I want to accompany grandma, and I also want to see the place where you grew up."
"But this place is too small and not that convenient."
"It doesn't matter. Your fiancé is not a spoiled young master. He has survived the gunfire and hail of bullets on the border. It's already good here."
As people who survived the line of death, they tacitly understood each other's past lives.
Whatever the other person has experienced, they have experienced the same thing!
Pei Jue pulled Qing Wu to sit in the yard, lying on the recliner under the osmanthus tree, swaying.
"Here there is a yard, flowers, peace, and you, all of which are invaluable to me."
Qing Wu watched him lie down on the chair that belonged to Old Lady Lin.
No one could imagine that the helmsman of a top tycoon worth hundreds of billions has such a peaceful and gentle side!
Qing Wu pursed her lips, and a piece of osmanthus seemed to fall in her heart...
"What about the grandfathers?"
"I called and told them to either leave the hospital today or wait for us to pick them up tomorrow."
"Then what?"
Pei Jue smiled, and his sculpture-like profile was bright in the moonlight.
"They scolded me and told us to show up tomorrow."
Qing Wu could imagine the two old men scolding and getting angry!
