Rebirth 78, the beginning of the marriage was broken off by the female educated youth

Chapter 1910 is a matter of utmost importance to me.

At this moment, Grandma Tang Qingshuang and his wife Qin Ruobai also finished breakfast and carried Li Xitang out of the main room, where they happened to see the scene at the door.

Tang Qingshuang was old and had seen the coldness and warmth of the world. When she saw Lan Cuihua, who was red from the cold but still tightly holding onto the wooden basin and refusing to let go, and the stubbornness and gratitude in her clear eyes, the old man's eyes also became slightly moist.

She sighed softly and whispered to her granddaughter Qin Ruobai, "This child... is someone who knows right from wrong and can distinguish good from evil; she's quite loyal and righteous!"

Qin Ruobai held the child and stood beside her grandmother, looking at Lan Cuihua, deeply moved.

Since having children, she has started to see things from a mother's perspective.

Lan Cuihua is only seventeen or eighteen years old, but she already seems very sensible. She understands human relationships and knows how to be grateful and repay kindness.

Her hands, covered in chilblains, were red and glaringly bright; if her mother saw them, she would surely feel heartache and distress.

But Qin Ruobai also knew that Lan Cuihua's mother had died of illness when she was young. This girl had always depended on her father for survival, so there was no mother to love her.

She could see Lan Cuihua's slightly trembling figure, feel the cold weight of the basin of clothes, and understand that Lan Cuihua still had hope for reality after being rescued by her husband in difficult circumstances. She also knew the burning, sincere heart in her heart that was eager to repay her debt.

Qin Ruobai subconsciously squeezed her grandmother's hand.

Tang Qingshuang smiled gently and kindly, then beckoned, "Qiuju, let Miss Lan help you out. I also want to see if the girls of Yanjing are really that skillful!"

"..." Upon hearing this, Zhu Qiuju saw Tang Qingshuang silently nod at her, and after glancing at her daughter-in-law's eyes, she finally let go.

The wooden basin was quickly tucked into Lan Cuihua's arms. The girl didn't feel the weight at all; instead, she jumped for joy and cried tears of happiness, "Thank you, Auntie! Thank you, old lady! Thank you, sister-in-law!"

After saying that, she happily carried the wooden basin to the pool.

Li Xiangnan stood not far away, taking in all of this.

Lan Cuihua's gratitude, Cheng Kui's righteous assistance, and the deep friendship between Grandpa Du Xingyue and his grandfather—all these intertwined, allowing him to deeply feel a long-lost, profound sense of human warmth belonging to this land.

This is completely different from the atmosphere he had faced before when dealing with conspiracies and the ups and downs of the business world; it is a kind of heartwarming essence.

But he quickly looked surprised and hurried to the edge of the pool, looking somewhat embarrassed and even a little ashamed!

Lan Cuihua casually washed her own pair of shorts first!

"Miss Lan!" Li Xiangnan scratched his head awkwardly, and taking advantage of the moment when the other party looked up, he tried to reach into the wooden basin to hook his little clothes.

But Lan Cuihua casually stuffed it into the basin, soaked it in cold water, and then rubbed some soap powder on her hand, asking as she worked, "Dr. Li? Dr. Li? Is there something you need?"

"Ah, this...it's nothing, it's nothing!" Li Xiangnan was too embarrassed to speak, looking like he wanted to say something but couldn't, his eyes kept glancing at the big pair of shorts in the basin, afraid that Lan Cuihua would realize that the clothes were his.

But his guilty conscience made him look extremely embarrassed in Lan Cuihua's eyes. She subconsciously lowered her head, and after a moment of surprise, she looked up and saw the embarrassment on Li Xiangnan's face. She burst into laughter.

"Dr. Li! It's nothing! I've been washing clothes for my father since I was ten years old. For the past seven or eight years, I've been washing clothes for the ladies near Beichizi Street. What haven't I seen? I even wash their menstrual pads regularly..."

you are awesome!

Li Xiangnan inwardly grumbled, but outwardly said, "Miss Lan, you've really worked hard," before slipping away dejectedly and returning home.

"Pfft!"

Qin Ruobai, who had already overheard their conversation, burst out laughing at her husband's embarrassed expression, saying, "Xiang Nan, even you have your embarrassing moments!"

Zhu Qiuju and Tang Qingshuang exchanged a smile.

……

At this moment, the aroma of tea wafts through the side room.

Li Dequan and Du Xingyue had already started chatting across a small rosewood tea table.

During their greetings, despite the decades that had passed, the two did not feel any awkwardness. Only after meeting again did their friendship, which had been refined over time, become even more profound and sincere.

“Brother Zhongmo, we can continue our reminiscing later!” Du Xingyue picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip, and said calmly, “I received your message yesterday. Although it was short, I could tell that you had something on your mind, and there was anger in your words!”

He put down his teacup and stared intently at Li Dequan.

Upon hearing this, a complex smile crossed Li Dequan's face. He reached out to refill Du Xingyue's teacup before saying with a smile, "To be honest, I was quite surprised that you came today. Normally, you should be the busiest person, and I expected you to be the last to arrive! But I didn't expect that after I sent out the invitation yesterday, you would be the first one to arrive this early in the morning!"

He paused, as if to let the other party remember, "I, Li Zhongmo, will remember this kindness!"

Du Xingyue waved his hand, his expression carrying a hint of worldly wisdom.

"Brother Zhongmo, there's no need for such talk between us!"

After saying this, he leaned forward, lowered his voice, and changed the subject, "Things are different now. Times have changed. Yanjing may look the same to you, but the waves beneath the surface are no longer the same as they used to be!"

"Twenty years ago, those old friends were indeed all in Yanjing! Now, I can sit still in Yanjing, but they... are all forced to hide themselves for one reason or another! Whether they are in Yanjing or not depends on the situation!"

These words, when heard by Li Dequan, were quite significant.

Yesterday, I had my son, Li Fugui, deliver the invitations according to the list. Judging from his feedback, he has delivered most of them.

Based on Du Xingyue's words, some people left Yanjing due to practical reasons, while others are still in Yanjing but it is inconvenient for them to show themselves, and still others will not show themselves!

Du Xingyue's words highlighted the delicate and turbulent situation in Yanjing today.

He immediately revealed his extraordinary respect and concern for Li Dequan, and said with a smile: "But for me, even if it is a huge matter, it is worth it for me, Du Xingyue, to go to great lengths for you, Li Zhongmo!"

This means that no matter how the situation in Yanjing changes, your matter, Li Zhongmo, will always be the top priority for me, Du Xingyue!

After saying these words, Li Dequan had a clear understanding of the situation, so he stopped hiding anything and carefully recounted some of the things that had happened in the Li family during this period.

But when he uttered the title "Little Buddha," a solemn expression appeared on Du Xingyue's face that was not befitting his status.

"Brother Zhongmo, are you sure you're not mistaken? It's that little Buddha who's targeting your Li family?"

Knowing Du Xingyue's character, Li Dequan saw his expression clearly and his heart skipped a beat.

"Old Du, what's with that expression? You're telling me this Little Buddha can't even handle you?"
