After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

Qin Liang just snorted without expressing his position, and Wang Yu didn't say anything else.

The old man here was in a good mood when he saw Qiao Xing. The two chatted for a long time, and Qiao Xing coaxed him to eat the food and drink the medicine.

After that, he took the old man down there to relax. Qiao Xing pushed the wheelchair and went wherever the old man pointed.

The old man introduced this villa to her. There was a separate house behind it, which he said was an ancestral hall.

In their family, everyone who gets married must worship their ancestors, but Qin Ce's current relationship with Qin Liang makes Qiao Xing unable to enter.

Qiao Xing didn't care about this. To her, there was nothing better than having her relatives by her side.

The old man said, "It doesn't matter, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

Qiao Xing nodded, "Okay."

This villa is so big. It's a cloudy day today. At first glance, the vegetation is bright green and there are birds singing and flowers everywhere.

Qin Ce followed them not far or too close, but when he felt that there was nothing wrong with him, he stopped, found two places to sit down, and watched them from a distance.

The old man introduced to Qiao Xing all the way that these places were his memories, and he remembered clearly where and what Qin Ce had done.

Qiao Xing basically didn't know much about Qin Ce's past, especially when she was a child. Qiao Xing was full of curiosity about the lives she had not participated in.

"We used to live here before, but the place we live in now was renovated later. There should be photos of Xiao Ce in this house. Let's go in and take a look."

“After we moved here, most of the stuff was still there without being taken over.”

The building where Qin Ce lives now was built when he was more than four years old. Within half a year of moving there, he followed him to Chongqing City.

Everything is there.

Qiao Xing accepted the old man's words and pushed him to the building. This building was indeed a bit old and it didn't look as bright as other houses.

The old man asked someone to bring it from the housekeeper's house. After opening the door, Qiao Xing pushed him in.

This place is not cleaned often. The last time it was cleaned was during the Chinese New Year, and now the furniture is covered with a layer of dust that is visible to the naked eye.

"This way." The old man pointed to the left.

Qiao Xing pushed him to the left corridor and stopped at the door of his designated room.

"This is the room where Xiao Ce lived when he was a child."

Qiao Xing hummed and opened the bedroom door. It didn't look like anything special, it was very clean.

But thinking about Qin Ce, who was so old, he probably wouldn't leave anything special behind.

"Go in and have a look."

Qiao Xing pushed the old man in. This room was quite large, with an attached bathroom. It didn't look as high-tech as the one there. The windows here were still the kind of hollow flower-shaped glass windows that could be pushed open.

Qiao Xing looked around and saw the bookshelf over there with many books on it.

She took a general look and found that they were all children's enlightenment books, many with pictures, and both in English and Chinese.

There is a toy box in the corner, and the contents are similar to those of most children. They are robots, toy cars and so on.

After searching for a long time, I found a photo album in the drawer.

It was a casual scrolling, but Qiao Xing was shocked when he saw the first photo.

Because it is a picture of a baby without clothes on, really nothing, naked.

It can be said to be a critical hit when opening the screen.

She opened her mouth in shock and showed the photo album to the old man, "Grandpa, isn't this Qin Ce?"

"Whose things are in his room if they're not his?"

The old man glanced at the photo and couldn't help being amused. He laughed for a long time.

"This little kid has forgotten that he even has this photo. This is a full-moon photo of him. Look at his nose and his little mouth. He was so cute when he was a child." Qiao Xing stared at the photo for a long time, but she didn't notice anything about the baby. Find any trace of Qin Ce.

There was no way to connect him to the baby in the photo.

The baby was lying on his stomach, and Qiao Xing couldn't help laughing when he saw the two halves of his buttocks.

She quickly took out her phone and clicked the photos.

She must keep this kind of thing well, this is a handle.

Just like the ugly photos of Qiao Xing stored in his computer, he would use this photo to threaten him to delete it.

"I suddenly remembered that his mother said at the time that she would show this photo on the big screen when he gets married."

Qiao Xing thought that Joey's character seemed to be something he could do, but with Qin Ce's character, if he really let it out, he didn't know if he would break up with her.

Qiao Xing kept the evidence and continued to turn to the next page. The photos on the second page were much denser, with eight on this page.

They were all photos of babies, but they were all wearing diapers. Qiao Xing didn’t even think about it, so she took photos first and then enjoyed them.

The child in the photo is very cute, with big, watery eyes, a small mouth, and he can still smile.

Qiao Xing couldn't help but think of the little one in her belly, wondering if it would be so cute after birth.

She became a little absent-minded and turned to the back again. There were many group photos at the back.

There were photos of him, Joey, Qin Liang, and the three of them.

Qiao originally thought that the Joey she saw was already very beautiful, but she didn't expect that she still underestimated Joey's appearance when he was young.

And Qin Liang, his serious look and brows were surprisingly consistent with Qin Ce.

There is actually a photo of the old man. At that time, the old man was only in his forties or fifties, and he was very similar to Qin Liang now.

Qiao Xing searched for a long time and found no photo of Grandma Qin.

She turned back and asked the old man, "Grandpa, why are there no photos of Grandma Qin?"

When Grandma Qin was mentioned, the good old man's eyes were a little dazed, as if he was recalling something from a long time ago.

He sighed, "Your grandma died early. She was sick, and she insisted on giving birth to the child. As a result, she left within two years, and she was only 30 years old when she left."

"Her photo is not here, it is in my room."

Qiao Xing felt a little moved. He actually stayed alone for 50 years without remarrying.

"Sorry, I was talking too much."

The old man waved his hand, "It's nothing, it's been so long, and now when I look at the photos, I feel a little strange."

"Ever since Qin Liang and Xiao Gu divorced, I sometimes get angry when I think about it. I feel that it's not worth it for her. How could the son who was born after all his efforts grow into such a virtuous person?"

"I have also reflected on it, and maybe I was wrong. After thinking about it, I don't know who to blame."

As he spoke, the old man's face showed a bit of sadness.

"To this day, grandpa is still very conflicted. Sometimes he thinks it's me who didn't teach him well, and on the other hand he thinks it's because he learned badly."

There is also the woman Wang Yu who is sowing discord in the middle. Sometimes he is so angry that he cannot regard her as his son.

But in fact, the blood relationship between the two cannot be changed.

The old man took the photo album from Qiao Xing's hand and stroked the baby in the photo with his withered fingers.

"He has given birth to so many children, but only Xiao Ce looks the most like him when he was a child. Tell me, does he deserve the quarrel between the two of them now?"

Qiao Xing couldn't answer, she looked at the old man with a complicated expression.

At this moment, she could no longer tell whether Grandpa Qin was looking at Qin Ce or Qin Liang through the photo. (End of chapter)
