Liu Junlan was heartbroken.
Because of her little darling's pitiful appearance, she quickly reached out and picked Lin Wanyue up and put her on her lap, and hurriedly comforted her, saying, "It's alright, it's alright, how can you blame our Wanwan? You've never met your grandfather, it's normal that you don't recognize him."
As she spoke, she gave Lin Xiangwu, who was sitting opposite her, a wink.
Time is merciless; the marks of time have etched themselves all over her face, even leaving long lines behind her gentle eyes.
But Lin Xiangwu immediately understood what his wife meant. He felt a pang of sadness and nodded to Lin Wanyue, saying, "Wanwan, don't worry. This is not your fault. In fact, it is thanks to you that I was able to find your grandmother, your father, and all of you... I searched for many years before I finally found you."
Liu Junlan hugged Lin Wanyue and gave her a big kiss on the cheek. "That's right, our Wanwan is amazing. She used to be able to bring back food from the mountain, and now she can even bring back your grandfather! Don't underestimate Wanwan just because she's young. Her abilities are unmatched by anyone else! Our Wanwan is the best."
"..." Lin Wanyue blushed as her grandmother praised her, feeling a little embarrassed. She was still nestled in Liu Junlan's arms, listening to her grandmother's generous compliments.
It's as if the best girl in the world is being held in her arms.
Lin Xiangwu looked at Liu Junlan with tender eyes. Seeing the affectionate relationship between the grandmother and granddaughter, he felt happy.
Back when Lin Weiming wasn't even born yet, Liu Junlan had made several outfits for little girls and even showed them off to him.
The tiny clothes were smaller than his palm, yet they looked exquisite and beautiful.
After giving birth to a son, Liu Junlan became somewhat unhappy and decided to try harder to have a daughter.
It's a pity that he went to the battlefield and never came back. Otherwise, the two of them would definitely have had many children, and... they probably would have had a daughter too!
Lin Wanyue didn't stay in Liu Junlan's room for too long. After listening to her grandmother's praise enough, she returned to her room contentedly.
She knew that Grandma would definitely want to talk to Grandpa a lot at this time, and as a good girl, she couldn't interrupt her grandparents' reunion.
The four Lin brothers were quite happy to have another ghost grandfather in the family, especially the second brother, Lin Zheyun, who was eagerly anticipating having his grandfather teach him military strategy the next day.
Lin Weiming, however, tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
He should have been happy to see his father after so long.
But his father looked younger than him, which...
Hmm, that's hard to say!
...
The next morning, before dawn, Lin Weiming tiptoed out of bed.
Lin Xiangwu, who was guarding outside Liu Junlan's gate, saw it all.
Lin Xiangwu frowned and followed, only to see his son, Gougou, furtively looking around before taking out three incense sticks from his sleeve, lighting them, and placing them in front of his memorial tablet.
It was only then that Lin Xiangwu noticed that there was a special room in his house used to store his memorial tablet.
Of course, he wasn't the only one.
There are others. Lai Fu and Hu Jiuyuan's memorial tablets are placed next to him, and two other memorial tablets are placed far away on the opposite corner of the room. I don't know what the significance of this is.
Although Lin Xiangwu had only been home for a short time, he had carefully observed along the way and had already guessed that these memorial tablets were probably the ghosts that followed Lin Wanyue.
He didn't feel offended; on the contrary, he included them in his sphere of influence, feeling that they had previously protected the family in his place.
Although those ghosts weren't very capable, they did their best.
Lin Weiming lit incense and talked to himself for a while, but then felt awkward because no one responded.
He gritted his teeth and took out the incense from his pocket and lit it.
As the fragrance of incense wafted, Lin Xiangwu's serious and dignified face appeared before him.
"!!!" Lin Weiming was a little startled.
After all, who wouldn't be scared when they see their father looking younger and more handsome than themselves?
"Dad... when did you get here?" Lin Weiming felt a little guilty. Had his father heard all his complaints?
"Hmm." Lin Xiangwu nodded to his son and patted him on the shoulder: "You've grown up a lot. It's hard to tell how you looked when you were little."
Lin Weiming scratched his head: "There's nothing we can do about it, it's been more than 20 years."
The topic became sentimental, and for a moment, both the human and the ghost fell silent.
Finally, Lin Xiangwu spoke up, saying, "You're quite capable. Our family has had nine generations of sons, and you actually managed to give me a granddaughter? You're much better than your father."
"That..." Lin Weiming began quietly, "Father, don't you know? Wanwan isn't actually my biological daughter?"
Lin Xiangwu: "..."
How would he know?
He knew this little girl was cute and capable!
It made him think twice about his son, but who knew that such a cute little girl wasn't his own at all?
"No..." Seeing his father's changing expression, Lin Weiming was afraid that he would misunderstand, so he quickly said, "Although Wanwan was only picked up by my mother, I have long regarded her as my own daughter! She will also be your granddaughter in the future."
"That's more like it." Lin Xiangwu felt he needed to process this further, so he turned around and floated into the courtyard.
Lin Weiming called out from behind, "Dad, where are you going?"
