Another woman came out of the courtyard. She had only seen her a few times when she was a child and was not familiar with her.
Calling Aunt Li politely, the woman invited her to sit at a small table in the courtyard.
"It's hard to find us here. It must have been a hard journey for you. Please sit down and have something to eat."
Huzi put her suitcase aside and sat down loudly, "Seventh sister, I can enjoy the blessing with you. I have been here for so long, eating and drinking here but I can't eat at Li's house.
Take a bite."
He said something jokingly, and Butler Li said at this time: "It's not good or bad, but I always knew that such a day would come."
He seemed to sigh, but Lei Qiqi caught the meaning of his words.
Did he know she was coming?
Did he really know about her parents' car accident that year?
"Don't be too busy talking, Qiqi, this is a cake I baked myself, do you like it?"
"Thank you Aunt Li."
Lei Qiqi was really hungry. The food on the plane was not delicious. She slept on the bus all night again. Now smelling the fragrant pancakes, she didn't care to ask questions during meal time.
"delicious."
"If it's delicious, eat more." Aunt Li smiled, but Butler Li sat there but never spoke.
Halfway through the meal, Huzi remembered something, "Seventh sister, where will you stay tonight? Follow me to the village entrance inn?"
There was no certainty that this matter would be done right away. Lei Qiqi hesitated for a moment and was about to nod when Butler Li said, "Just live at home. Just don't dislike Qiqi."
"How could it be? Then thank you Uncle Li."
After dinner, Butler Li took his pipe and led Lei Qiqi out. Huzi wanted to follow, but she stopped him.
Butler Li walked slowly and took her to the fields along the way, stopping in front of a waterwheel.
The sound of rushing water, the sound of the waterwheel's rotation, and the splashing water droplets made her fall in love with this place right away.
It's pure here, and there doesn't seem to be any conspiracy.
"Qiqi will be as beautiful as your mother when she grows up." Butler Li said as if in a trance.
"Uncle Li..."
Lei Qiqi stared at him and opened her mouth to ask, but she saw that he suddenly threw his crutch and knelt down towards her. She was shocked, but her heart sank slightly.
"Uncle Li, you get up first."
"I don't have the face to apologize to you in front of my wife. In fact, she doesn't know anything. I am very satisfied to be able to enjoy a peaceful life for so many years. I know you will come one day. People do it, God does it.
Look, everything has its consequences, I never thought I could stay silent for the rest of my life."
"Uncle Li, my parents used to..."
"I was obsessed for a moment. Back then, my grandson had congenital heart disease and needed a lot of money. I have been in the Lei family all my life and I couldn't open my mouth. After Shen Yifei found out, he gave me a sum of money to help me. I thought at the time that he was
Out of good intentions, I accepted it out of desperation..."
Lei Qiqi helped him sit by the waterwheel and listened to him continue: "It got worse later. He threatened me with this many times, saying that I took his money and asked me to do things for him, otherwise he would have to
I can't stay in Lei's house any longer, and I have to deal with my little grandson.
I was forced to attack from two sides, and in the end, under his instructions, I had to tamper with Mr. Lei and Mrs. Lei's car. At that time, I knew that I was going to hell, and my little grandson couldn't hold on for a few months.
