"I've probably guessed something. The person in this photo is somewhat similar to Miss Six..." Lin Qiu squatted next to Uncle Li's stool, collecting tea leaves on the ground. Uncle Li was a little excited just now and brought some things with him. fall down.
Uncle Li burst into tears and wiped away his tears: "There is no need to sort out these tea leaves. I brought them myself and they are not valuable." After saying this, he carefully wrapped the two tea leaves next to him in brown paper. Got up and put it back in the tea box.
The paper wrapping these tea leaves looks old, and the color of the tea is much better.
Lin Qiu didn't know how to comfort Uncle Li, so she had to lower her head and say nothing.
Uncle Li simply picked up the teapot on the table and took a swig: "You are right, Liuliu is the most like him among all the children, both in personality and appearance."
Uncle Li had too many things on his mind, and he had nowhere to tell him. He felt like he was about to be crushed. It happened that Lin Qiu was about to inherit that house. Why not tell him everything, and maybe Lin Qiu would cherish it even more. These two houses.
"My old comrade-in-arms, his name is Guo Xingye, and Liuliu is his youngest daughter."
Unexpectedly, Liuliu's father and Uncle Li had such a relationship. Liuliu's father was also a soldier.
"Back then, Lao Guo and I met in the army. We went to the border together. We ate and lived together, and we had the best relationship..." Uncle Li couldn't continue, and his voice started to sob.
Lin Qiu felt like he took out his handkerchief; "If Uncle Li really feels sad, you don't have to say anything."
Uncle Li didn't seem to hear this sentence. Maybe he just wanted to vent his feelings today and kept talking to himself.
"Guo Xingye has been upright and selfless throughout his life. The only failure in his life is his stupid adopted son. Why do you keep such a thing by your side? My old Guo!" Uncle Li couldn't bear it anymore, and tears fell from his turbid eyes little by little. There was blood coming out of the eyes.
Adopted son? Why is such a number one person involved again? Lin Qiu's mind felt increasingly confused.
"Uncle Li, please speak slowly, don't get excited." Uncle Li's face turned red due to excitement, and it looked like his heart was not in good condition, which made Lin Qiu very flustered. If Uncle Li fell ill all of a sudden, he would There's no reason for this, he's the only one there!
"I'm fine, I'm in good health. Even if I sell this house to an outsider, I won't leave it to him Guo Zhengyi!"
Guo Zhengyi, this person's name sounded familiar to Lin Qiu.
"Okay, okay, your body is still strong. Let's sit down and talk slowly. I will listen to whatever you want to say today." Lin Qiu saw that Uncle Li wanted to vent his feelings, so instead of just letting him talk, he felt It turns out that Uncle Li just needs someone to listen.
"Back then, we fought together on the border battlefield. Guo Xingye had just gotten married at the time, and he had a daughter-in-law who was expecting childbirth at home. Many people died on the battlefield. It was a blessing for the two of us to be able to return to our hometown."
"There was a fellow countryman who lived in the same dormitory with us at that time. We can no longer remember his name. We only remember that he had a wife who was about the same age as Guo Xingye and was at home at the time, and she was also expecting a baby."
"Since the two ladies are facing fertility problems at the same time, I hope Guo Xingye can help."
"I didn't expect that this group of people would cause a problem!" Uncle Li was very excited when he slapped his thigh and poked twice at Guo Xingye's posthumous photo with two fingers, but in the end he didn't say anything angry.
After all, death is like a lamp going out. No matter what Uncle Li said on the ground, Guo Xingye would not be able to hear it.
Lin Qiu also roughly guessed the subsequent development. In that turbulent era, what could a widow who lost her husband do? Not to mention protecting the children, the Ni Bodhisattva might not be able to protect himself even if he crosses the river.
"Ahem, cough, cough, that woman died early. She passed away as soon as Guo Zhengyi closed her eyes after giving birth." Uncle Li seemed to miss the widow.
"Take a drink of water and speak slowly. What next?" Lin Qiu planned to be a perfect listener and provided Uncle Lin with tea to soothe his throat and compliments.
Uncle Li took the tea and took a big sip: "When that woman was alive, she made the old Guo family restless. She gave birth to a child, and she also tormented the next generation of the old Guo family. I was so angry."
When Uncle Li got excited, he jumped up from his stool and almost brought the teacup on the table. Lin Qiu quickly stretched out his hand to protect them. These teacups looked valuable, and he couldn't afford to pay for them if one or two were damaged.
"What happened? Make you so angry." Lin Qiu became more and more interested in this gossip. If this was made into a TV series, wouldn't it be a drama comparable to a family ethics drama?
"Let me tell you, as soon as that woman entered Lao Guo's house, she knelt down to her sister-in-law and said that she was here to serve Lao Guo and that she would just give them a place to eat."
This was indeed not a personal statement. She was just taking in a pregnant woman, but what the widow said seemed to be that Guo Xingye had taken her into the family.
From what Uncle Li said, Lin Qiu felt that Guo Xingye was a very fair person, so his wife must also be a good person. How could she not tolerate a widow who lost her husband?
"Doesn't this mean that both of them are separated from each other at the same time?" Lin Qiu agreed.
"That's not to say, since the widow entered the Guo family's front door, my sister-in-law has never had a peaceful life. She almost died in childbirth when she gave birth to Lao Guo's eldest son."
It seems that this widow is a person who knows how to "serve".
"As a result, Lao Guo, the eldest son of the family, is not smart enough and can't do things neatly enough." Uncle Li shook his head with a pityful tone.
At this moment, a clear voice came from outside the door: "My eldest brother is the best person in the world, you are not allowed to say this about him!"
It turned out to be Liuliu who had just run out the door crying. She ran back after her mood stabilized.
Lin Qiu sat on the chair and was a little afraid to speak.
Uncle Li shook his head: "Your eldest brother's brain is not bad, he is just a bit cranky. If he behaves more in front of Lao Guo, he will definitely not let Guo Zhengyi take away all the family property." He lowered his head and couldn't bear it. say.
Liuliu did not refute this statement, which showed that what Uncle Li said was true.
Lin Qiu was even more shocked. He thought that the family war was already a good show, but he didn't expect that there would be a fight for family property.
"These things you are talking about will not all happen in the house I want to buy, right?" Lin Qiu's voice was trembling. From this point of view, this house may be a bit unlucky, and it is quite uneasy.
Liuliuyi said anxiously after hearing this: "Don't worry, we asked a Feng Shui master to look at the house."
Listening to Liuliu's words, it seems that Guo Xingye is also in this house...
"It's okay, I don't mind this. According to Uncle Li, Mr. Guo is also a man who strives for glory for the country. It's not too late to have such a hero bless me to work there with peace of mind." Lin Qiu explained quickly.
