Chapter 210

Xia Ling took a few steps forward, taking advantage of the opportunity of Mr. Li to look at her, she also secretly looked at Mr. Li.

The old man's eyebrows were somewhat similar to Li Lei's, but there was a trace of thoroughness and indifference in reading the world. His eyes were like the calm sea, calm, peaceful, but unfathomable.Xia Ling's thoughts were a little dazed, and when Li Lei's gray hair turned gray, would he be like this?

Mr. Li looked at her for a long time, then looked away, and said calmly, "Since we're here, I'll stay with Xiaolei for a few days. There are many restricted areas on the island, so be careful not to enter by mistake. Xiaolei, treat your guests well." Eyelids drink tea.

Li Lei's heart skipped a beat, "Guest", what an unfamiliar word.

In Yangxin Garden, the bamboo forest is quiet, and the breeze blows through the bamboo leaves to make a soft rustling sound.Li Lei was disturbed by the small voice, so he forced himself to smile and said, "Grandpa, Xiao Ling brought you a special gift. Xiao Ling, show it to Grandpa."

Xia Ling held the gift in front of Old Man Li, and she respected this old man very much: "Grandpa..."

Old Man Li raised his hand to stop her: "No, Miss Ye, old man, I can't afford to be your grandpa. Just put the gift on the table." He nodded at the table next to him, "Have a happy new year at Li's house, It’s not in vain to be a guest.”

Xia Ling was dumbfounded.

Before meeting the old man of the Li family, she had imagined many possibilities, and also thought that the old man didn't like her, but she didn't expect such a straightforward rejection.She stood there bewildered.

"Grandpa!" Li Lei was also stunned, didn't grandpa care about grandson's daughter-in-law's background?Why don't you wait to see Xiao Ling?He said resolutely, "Aren't you going to open the present? Xiaoling spent a lot of time choosing it for you..."

"I'm tired," Mr. Li interrupted him, "Xiao Lei, take Miss Ye back to rest. Come to my study at night."

Seeing his grandfather's attitude, Li Lei knew that there was no room for change. He was anxious and unwilling, but he knew that now was not the time to continue arguing.He stretched out his hand to hold Xia Ling's hand, gave her courage and strength, and led her to bid farewell to Mr. Li and return to the Thunder Courtyard.

Xia Ling was very depressed: "Why doesn't your grandpa like me?"

"Maybe there is some misunderstanding." Li Lei comforted her, "Don't worry, I'll have a good talk with grandpa tonight." If the prospective daughter-in-law, who had finally caught up with her, broke up because the family didn't approve, then he wouldn't even have time to cry .

That night, he went to Mr. Li's study.

In the study room, all kinds of precious classics are placed on rows of excellent wooden bookshelves. Ancient and elegant utensils, paper and pens are arranged in a random order. Mr. Li is sitting alone in front of the sea of ​​tea, making tea while waiting for him. .

"You can't have this girl." He said to Li Lei straight to the point.

"Why?!" Li Lei was anxious, "I love her!"

"Love?" There was a trace of disapproval in the eyes of Mr. Li, "Xiao Lei, love can't keep you safe, nor can it make you stand on the top of power. Okay. If it's an ordinary girl, it doesn't matter if her background is almost nothing, our Li family can't afford it. But, this girl..."

"What's wrong with Xiao Ling?" Li Lei became nervous.

Mr. Li slowly skimmed off the froth in the blue and white teacup. Under the dim yellow lamp, there was a trace of solemnity between his brows: "This girl has a bad face, a bad life, and a widow. You have to remember, Xiaolei. In this business, God rewards food and food, and those who are blessed and destined to wander alone are fine under the rain of guns and bullets. Those who are unlucky and unlucky can be killed by a stray bullet. You must never marry a girl who is destined to be lonely and widowed. , will bring bad luck.”

This turned out to be the reason.

Mr. Li is old, and he devotes himself to the study of Chinese metaphysics on weekdays, and he is very particular about this aspect.

However, Li Lei was not convinced: "Grandpa, those are all nonsense, how could Xiaoling have a bad life? Look how old she is, she has already become popular in the entertainment circle, how can a person with a bad life do this? "

Old Man Li shook his head slowly: "Anyway, I don't agree to the matter between you and this girl. Xiaolei, listen to Grandpa's persuasion. This girl's family must have disabled or violent deaths within three generations. Grandpa is not lying to you."

Li Lei felt a chill in his heart.

It was true that Mr. Li said that her younger sister, Ye Xingfei, had a car accident and turned into a vegetative state?
He was a little shaken in his heart, could it be that Xiao Ling was really a widow and lonely?However, even then he didn't care: "Grandpa, didn't you always say that my life is good? I am blessed with great life and will not be restrained, and with me, Xiao Ling will be fine. Not to mention What happened to her family may just be a coincidence."

The grandparents and grandchildren stick to their own opinions, and no one can convince the other.

Xia Ling was waiting for Li Lei in the Leiming Courtyard, her mood was up and down.What should I do if the old man of the Li family refuses to admit her?Laugh it off?No...she couldn't do it, she had had enough of not being recognized by her lover's family.

She must work hard to let Mr. Li accept her.

Thinking about it, she curled up on the soft and spacious sofa and fell asleep.

When I woke up the next day, I was on the bed, the wooden cabin and the ceiling, and the fragrance of dried flowers floating in the air.Li Lei was lying beside her in his pajamas, hugging her like an octopus.She moved, and he also woke up, showing a big smile: "Hi, Xiaoling."

Looking at his bright smiling face, Xia Ling's mood also improved: "Morning." Then asked: "Yesterday, what did Mr. Li tell you to go to the study?" It's my own habit to stop calling people "grandfather" in a brazen manner, and only call them "grandfather" politely.

Li Lei felt a pang in his heart, but he acted as if nothing had happened on his face: "It's nothing, we chatted about some business at home."

"You're talking bad about me." Although Xia Ling was straightforward, she wasn't really stupid.

"It's nothing." Li Lei reassured her, "It's the first time he sees you, the old man is a bit unfamiliar, and it will be fine after he gets used to it." He urged Xia Ling to change her clothes, "Today, many people will come to see you at Lei Ming Court, My second uncle, third aunt, sixth aunt, etc."

Xia Ling's thoughts were immediately taken away: "Come here to see me? Shouldn't I go to visit the elders?"

"You don't need to see me," Li Lei said, "Your man, I have a higher status here than they do." See you?

In addition, Xia Ling's status has also increased, from being sent to the door and being watched by people to being locked in the yard and being watched by people...
