Lord Mo has made him obediently favored

Chapter 172 Give Old Ji Parents Face (2)

The cold night in Kyoto is also lively.

The lights are bright and the traffic is busy.

Ji Yinian opened the window and let the cold wind blow in, chilling her body and heart.

What Jiu Sheng said is still in my ears.

Those words were like sharp knives, piercing her heart.

"Isn't it cold?" Shangguan Mo turned the doorknob and stood there for a long time.

The woman stood there motionless as if possessed by a demon.

He was so far away that he could feel the cold wind blowing.

Ji Yinian didn't look back, "Why did you marry me back then?"

Behind, no sound.

"Is it because of redemption, or because of guilt?" Ji Yinian asked again.

Shangguan Mo looked at her back, she was thin and strong, which made him feel very distressed.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Ji Yinian turned around with cold eyes.

Slowly approaching him, "Back then, the imperial army was looking for high-tech talents to develop new weapons. My parents happened to be talents in this field. That year, they suddenly disappeared and their whereabouts are unknown. Until now. You marry me, Did you marry me because you took them away and let them die for no reason, out of guilt?"

"Who did you listen to?" Shangguan Mo frowned and his voice was low.

"I just want to know, how did they die?" Ji Yinian's eyes were burning. "At this time, you still keep it from me?"

Shangguan Mo's pupils shrank sharply, "The car exploded."

Ji Yinian's heart clenched fiercely, he couldn't believe it, "What?"

"In the year of my accident, I was in a coma for three full months. When I woke up, they were no longer there. I sent someone to check. They received a call that day and left in a hurry. People from the base called them and found them Lost contact. Send someone to find, only found the wreckage of the car."

"All the clues have been cut off. I can't find out who called them back then, and I don't know who they are going to see." Shangguan Mo looked at her, "I have been investigating this matter for several years, but there is no clue. "

"So, don't check, right?" Ji Yinian's voice was calm and unremarkable.

She had known for a long time that there was no news of people who had been missing for several years, so she shouldn't have any hope.

In accepting the news of their deaths, she took it easily.

But now, what she couldn't figure out was, why did she die?
Who called them and who exactly did they go to see?

Why, they never contacted her?

"We have worked hard." Seeing that she was not making noise, Shangguan Mo was surprisingly calm.

In my heart, I feel uneasy.

It would be fine if she cried and made a scene, at least she vented her anger.

However, she was very calm.

Ji Yinian took a deep breath and looked at him, "Because of your powerlessness and guilt, you felt indebted, so you married me. At the beginning, I was trapped in that place. If no one helped me, my fate would eventually become A pile of bones. But it will be different if you marry me. You are the leader of the imperial army and can protect me. This is the best explanation and compensation for my parents, right?"

Shangguan Mo didn't know what to say.

She knows everything now and knows everything in her heart.

No matter how much she said, she couldn't change the facts, nor could she change her thoughts at this moment.

"I understand." Ji Yinian raised his head slightly and closed his eyes, "You are already awake, go back."

Shangguan Mo frowned, "I'm sorry."

Ji Yinian grinned and slowly opened his eyes to look at him, "There's nothing I'm sorry about. They served the country as they should. Their deaths have nothing to do with you. Besides, you sacrificed so much to save me, so I should thank you. But, Shangguan Mo, we are like a contract, now that the contract expires, we will be safe."

Shangguan Momo's eyes narrowed slightly, "How are you all?"

"Yes. I'm tired. Please close the door for me when you leave. Thank you." Ji Yinian walked to the bed, got on the bed, covered the quilt, and closed his eyes.

Shangguan Mo stood there for a long time, he knew she was not asleep, but he couldn't do anything.

Staying will only make her more forbearing.

Only by leaving can she be her truest self.

Shangguan Mo stepped lightly, slowly exited the bedroom, and closed the door behind him.

The moment the door was closed, tears overflowed from the corners of the eyes of the person on the bed...

Shangguan Mo was standing outside, his dark eyes were full of darkness.

The sky outside was not as indifferent as the aura emanating from him.

.

Ji Yinian was sitting in the yard, peeling garlic.

I have been back to my hometown for several days. Here, I can forget those unpleasant things.

"Why did you come outside? It's not cold. Hurry up and go back to the house. Be careful not to freeze in this cold day." As soon as Grandpa Ji came out, he saw Ji Yinian sitting outside, very anxious.

Ji Yinian turned back and smiled at him, "Grandpa, it's not cold. Be more sober outside, and stay in the room for a long time, and you will be in a daze."

Grandpa Ji didn't hear her words, so he walked over and patted her, and picked up the garlic bowl on the table, "Hurry up and sit in the room. You child, you are such a big person, it's really worrying."

"Yes yes yes. I'll go into the house. Bring it to me." Ji Yinian supported the old man, lest he accidentally fall.

It has just rained, and the stones in the yard are a little slippery.

"You child, you should take good care of yourself, do you know that?" Grandpa Ji sat in the main room, looking at the empty yard outside, with endless loneliness and hope in his eyes, which finally turned into a sigh.

Ji Yinian poured a glass of boiling water and put it in front of him, "Grandpa, Chinese New Year is coming soon, be happy."

"The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Your parents... still won't come back this year." Grandpa Ji was holding a water glass, and his whole body was shrouded in sadness.

Ji Yinian's heart has always been weighed down by a big rock, and seeing his grandfather like this makes him feel even more uncomfortable.

She did not tell her grandfather the news of her parents' death.

She was afraid that her grandfather would be too old to bear it.

Missing, at least there is hope.

If you tell him the truth, I'm afraid it will be difficult to accept.

It is good to have a little hope in my heart.

"Grandpa, this year I will accompany you to celebrate the New Year, okay?" Ji Yinian held those hands as old as dead wood, his nose slightly sore.

Unknowingly, grandpa is already so old.

How time flies.

Grandpa Ji finally showed a smile on his face, "Okay, of course."

Seeing the smile on Grandpa's face, Ji Yinian said cautiously, "Grandpa, last time I met my sister."

"Your sister?" The smile on Grandpa Ji's face froze.

"Well. Because last time was the company's annual meeting, there were too many things and people, so I didn't say a few words to her. But later people said that uncle and aunt also came back." Ji Yinian observed his grandfather's expression .

Grandpa Ji didn't hear the joy on his uncle's face when he came back, but his mood became worse and worse.

"Grandpa, what's the matter with you? Uncle and the others will definitely come back to spend the New Year with you when they come back this time." Ji Yinian pretended to be relaxed and happy. .”

"If they are interested, they should come to see me as soon as they come back. Nian Nian, don't think about them. This year, it's just us grandpa and grandson." Grandpa Ji stopped mentioning his youngest son's family.

Ji Yinian didn't want to affect Grandpa's mood too much, so he smiled and said, "Okay, let's spend this year."

New Year's Eve.

Thousands of lights are on, and those who have worked hard outside have returned to their hometowns to spend the reunion year with their families. There is a lot of people and noise.

Only Ji's family was quiet like New Year's Eve.

"Uncle Ji, why don't you and Yi Nian come to our house to celebrate the New Year. The grandpa and grandson live a lonely life, so come to our house and have a lot of fun." The neighbor next door, Uncle Ye, came over to call for someone.

Grandpa Ji declined with a smile, "It's no good. Your family finally got together, so go back quickly. My granddaughter and I have nothing to do."

"We already have a lot of family members, so it doesn't matter if you have more grandparents. Chinese New Year is just for fun, let's go."

"Oh, it's fine if I don't go. You are a troubled person. You have a son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter. Can't you have a good New Year with your own family?" Aunt Wang, who had been at loggerheads with the Ji family before, also came to join in the fun .

At this time of year, some people have good intentions and can't bear the old man's loneliness at home.

Some people also came to say a few sour words, ridicule them, and ridicule them.

"I said, what are you talking about? What's the matter with the folks in the big hometown to celebrate the New Year together? It's not like going to your house to celebrate the New Year." Uncle Ye turned back.

"Hmph." Aunt Wang cast a sideways glance, "Oh, so what about the two sons? They are not at home all year round, and they are deserted. The old man is also guilty of crimes."

Ji Yinian frowned, "Aunt Wang, don't be troubled by your New Year's Eve."

"I said you girl, what are you talking about?" Seeing Ji Yinian's cold look, Aunt Wang felt panicked.

"For those who celebrate Chinese New Year, I don't want to spoil your interest. If you want to celebrate Chinese New Year, you should go back and enjoy it. Don't show off at my door." Ji Yinian said in a cold tone.

Aunt Wang stared at her, "Yi Nian, I'm just telling the truth. Look at your grandfather, he's quite old, he lives alone in this yard every day, and he goes out to farm in hot weather. Tell me , your father, your uncle, how did they become sons? They don’t come back after the Chinese New Year. And you, after getting married, why do you go back to your mother’s house alone? Your husband doesn’t accompany you? "

"Aunt Wang, you talk too much." Ji Yinian said in a bad tone, "If you don't want to have a good year, I can help you."

Aunt Wang's face turned red all of a sudden, "You...you girl, why are you talking so aggressively?"

Ji Yinian didn't bother to talk to her, so he said to Uncle Ye with a calm expression: "Uncle Ye, thank you for your kindness. This year, I will spend with grandpa. I wish you all a happy new year!"

Uncle Ye sighed softly, "Alright then. I have something to talk about."

"Ah."

After Uncle Ye left, Aunt Wang walked away too.

"You, don't argue with the Wang family. We are all in the same village, and we will see each other when we look up."

"Grandpa, if she doesn't talk with guns and sticks, it's impossible for me not to give her a good face. This kind of person is just a villain, waiting to see our family's jokes. Hmph, what's wrong with being deserted, we Have fun as well."

"You child..." Grandpa Ji was a little helpless.

He looked up at the sky, and there were already many people starting to set off fireworks.

From afar, I could hear children laughing and talking.

If his children come back, it must be very lively.

Seeing his grandfather's loneliness and disappointment, Ji Yinian felt very sad.

But there was nothing she could do.

She can stay with grandpa, but there is no way to get her parents back.

"Oh, why are there so many cars coming this way?"

"Look. How many cars there must be here."

"At least there are seven or eight cars. Whose child is this coming back, so grand?"

"Who knows."

Many neighbors ran out to watch.

Hearing these words, Ji Yinian thought to himself, could it be that uncle came back?
"Grandpa, do you want to go out and take a look?" She didn't dare to say that it was her uncle who came back, for fear of what might happen.

Grandpa Ji shook his head, "Forget it. Let's not join in the fun."

"That's fine. It's cold outside, it's better to go back to the house." Ji Yinian helped the old man into the main room.

One by one, they drove to the outside of Ji's courtyard.

Everyone was attracted, standing outside Ji's house and discussing.

"Uncle Ji, someone has come to your house." Someone shouted outside.

Ji Yinian glanced at his grandfather, but he didn't see any brilliance in his eyes.

She went out, "Who is it?"

The car door opened, and a pair of shiny leather shoes came into view. The slender and straight legs were wrapped under the suit pants. When the man got out of the car, everyone was shocked.

who is this?

How do you look so good-looking?

The girls returning to the village from the city covered their mouths when they saw the man and took a deep breath.

His face was flushed, he was talking to the person next to him in a low voice, his eyes were on the man's body.

The men all looked at this man, and they were all people who had seen the world. When they saw the convoy and their style, they knew that they were not ordinary people.

When Ji Yinian saw that man, his heel seemed to have taken root.

Why is he here?

"Who is it?" Seeing that Ji Yinian was silent, Grandpa Ji also came out.

When he saw Shangguan Mo, he was really shocked.

Shangguan Mo walked up to the old man, "Grandpa, Happy Chinese New Year."

The sound of grandpa made everyone who watched the excitement curious.

Who is this man?

Why is it called Grandpa Ji?

"Grandpa, Happy New Year." Zheng Xuan also came, carrying a lot of things in his hand.

"Grandpa, happy new year." Tan Yu stepped forward to say hello.

"Grandpa, happy new year." Xi Qin also came.

Ji Yinian watched the battle, and four people came forward from behind, all of them were holding gifts in their hands, all of them were wearing suits, and all of them looked talented and called the old man Grandpa, wishing the New Year.

Grandpa Ji looked at his granddaughter suspiciously.

Ji Yinian was also confused.

She glanced at the people watching the excitement around her, more or less, her eyes showed envy and jealousy.

Ji Yinian did not ask Shangguan Mo what was going on in front of so many people.

Just glanced at him.

He smiled and walked towards Ji Yinian, "I originally wanted to come here tomorrow morning, today's business ended early, so I came back to accompany you and grandpa to celebrate the new year." That doting and gentle look caused a commotion.

"This... this can't be a man who misses a girl."

"Look at this, yes. But, didn't Matchmaker Zhang say that people are ugly? This appearance is also called ugly?"

"Maybe the one introduced by Matchmaker Zhang was killed by her again?"

"No way. This man seems to be a rich master, so he can't find a second-married woman."

"Oh, I don't know. I don't know. It's amazing to look at his style."

"Show old Ji's parents face."

"..."

Ji Yinian saw so many people surrounded his yard, he was ridiculed by Aunt Wang just now, and now Shangguan Mo appeared.

She could see how ugly Aunt Wang's face was.

Although he disdained Shangguan Mo's approach, he still accepted it.

After all, the appearance of Shangguan Mo made Grandpa lose face.

How many people in this village watched the jokes of Lao Ji's family, and their wishes have all come to nothing at this moment.

"Madam, sir said that this is the first time to celebrate the New Year in my hometown, so I brought some gifts to the folks. I wish you all a happy new year and a happy family." Zheng Xuan glanced at the gifts that several of them were holding.

Those gifts are all first-class goods.

Even people who work in the city may not be able to afford it.

"Fathers and folks, this is a sympathy from our husband and wife, I hope you don't dislike it." Zheng Xuan didn't wait for Ji Yinian to speak, and spread out the gifts.

If there is something to take, everyone will naturally be happy.

After all, they have never seen these things before.

Everyone took the presents, and some people started to compliment.

"Uncle Ji, your grandson-in-law is really filial. He not only remembers you, but also our neighbors."

"That's right. Uncle Ji, I really envy you for having such a good son-in-law. He's handsome and polite. He's really blessed."

"One thought, you have to thank Zhang Matchmaker, she told you a good marriage."

"Hey, don't talk nonsense. Zhang Matchmaker told Yi Nian that this is not the relative. Didn't you hear that man was ugly?"

"Oops, I forgot."

"Stop talking."

Everyone was chattering, Ji Yi Nian just listened.

After the gifts were distributed, everyone thanked them and left after saying a few words.

The originally lively courtyard was instantly quiet.

The old man looked at Shangguan Mo and frowned, "Who made you pay for it?"

"Grandpa, it's New Year's Eve. Everyone is happy, so there is a New Year's atmosphere." Shangguan Mo smiled, very gentle and polite.

Ji Yinian didn't bother to look at him, and supported the old man, "Grandpa, it's cold outside, let's go back to the house."

"Ah, good." The old man glanced at Shangguan Mo, who stood there, motionless.

"Nian Nian, what's going on with you and him?" the old man asked softly.

Ji Yinian said lightly, "Grandpa, I really have nothing to do with him."

"It doesn't matter why he didn't have a reunion at his home during the Chinese New Year. What did he come to our country for?"

"Maybe I want to experience a new life." After entering the room, "Grandpa, why don't you rest earlier. I'll call you again when the New Year's Eve comes."

"But that kid..." Old Master Ji glanced at Shangguan Mo who was still in the yard, blowing the cold wind.

Ji Yinian comforted, "Don't worry about him."

Seeing his granddaughter's indifferent expression, old man Ji didn't say anything more.

"Okay, I'll go to bed first. You...Young people, have fun." Mr. Ji originally wanted her to celebrate the New Year, so don't make people feel embarrassed, but he didn't say it in the end.

After all, she is his own granddaughter, so he has to look after his own children.

The old man returned to his room, Ji Yinian sat in the main room, peeling melon seeds.

She glanced at the several big men standing in the yard, and a certain man stood out from the crowd, making it impossible to ignore.

It was very cold outside, and she felt cold in the house with the brazier on.

She turned a blind eye and did not call them in.

Until the New Year's Eve bell rang, the fireworks outside suddenly bloomed.

Everyone in the village came out to cheer and welcome the new year.

Outside my own yard, there were also fireworks and firecrackers sounding one after another.

Shangguan Mo stood in the yard, and several other people lined up outside and lit the fireworks.

Ji Yinian sat in the room, watching the fireworks all over the sky, it was very beautiful and fleeting.

However, the fireworks have never stopped.

The world outside Ji's house was dazzling and colorful, and lasted until three o'clock in the morning, when Ji Yinian walked up behind him, "When are you going to leave it?" His voice was cold, with displeasure in his tone.

Shangguan Mo turned his face to look at her, and pointed to the pile of fireworks outside, "Until they are all set off."

Ji Yinian was speechless, "It's really rich and powerful." The sky is full of fireworks, it's obviously money.

Shangguan Mo didn't speak, the fireworks outside were still blooming.

The two stood side by side, looking at the sky, and the brilliant light fell on them.

"Go in. It's cold outside." Shangguan Mo looked back at her.

Ji Yinian didn't answer, but looked up at the fireworks all over the sky.

Shangguan Mo frowned lightly, took off his coat, and put it on her body.

Ji Yinian subconsciously refused, Shangguan Mo forcibly pressed the clothes on her body, "Do you want me to take care of you if you catch a cold?"

"I have clothes." Ji Yinian glared at him.

"Then you go get it and put it on." Shangguan Mo said strongly.

Ji Yinian glared at him again, "Why are you so busy?"

"Then put it on." Shangguan Mo's eyes were firm, beyond doubt.

Fireworks went off all night.

A thick layer of shredded confetti filled the yard, which shows how lively this New Year is.

Ji Yinian stood all night wearing his clothes.

　I quite like the way it is now.Without the shackles of husband and wife status, but caring about each other, arguing and arguing, that's what love looks like.
