Ni Yuanming lives a normal life next to Xiao Ying.
Xiao Ying treated him kindly and taught him. He didn't want to go out to work like Qian Changping because his mother was buried here.
Therefore, he stayed here all his life, guarding his old house, guarding his mother's grave, and now also guarding the grave of his adoptive mother Xiao Ying.
This is his home.
No matter how bustling and bustling it is outside, he is not greedy.
Few of the children raised by Granny Xiao were stupid. When Ni Yuanming saw the old man and his similar appearance to Qian Changping, he knew he must be Wei Haizheng.
The difficult days of childhood were like thousands of steel needles piercing into Ni Yuanming's nerves day by day.
He still has the property left by his adoptive mother, the servants that his adoptive mother cares about, and his most beloved granddaughter Yun Qiao who needs to be taken care of, otherwise he wants to rush out and kill that man now!
At this moment, Yun Qiao changed into a home-style long quilted jacket, took a photo of the windbreaker outside, and went to the living room to meet Wei Haizheng.
"...Where did you come from?" Yun Qiao asked him.
Wei Haizheng: "Son, I haven't introduced myself yet, but you seem to know me."
"Grandma has a small portrait of you. It looks like you." Yun Qiao said, "I've seen it before."
Wei Haizheng was slightly surprised.
His marriage to Xiao Ying was a perfect match. Xiao Ying came from a wealthy family and her natal family was wealthy. She was infertile for seven years after marrying into the Wei family. The Wei family gossiped a lot, so she took the initiative to divorce.
To put it bluntly, the two of them treated each other with respect and had no grudge against each other.
When they made peace with each other, Wei Haizheng returned Xiao Ying's entire dowry to her and gave her an additional 30% as a gift.
Xiao Ying also calmly wanted to leave the Wei family.
Among the divorced couples of that era, it was rare for them to get together and part ways easily without breaking up. He knew that Xiao Ying had no intention of him, and he didn't like her very much either.
The relationship between the two was as weak as water. After the separation, Xiao Ying took a small portrait of him with her, which surprised Wei Haizheng.
"She is your grandmother, and you are Yun Qiao, right?" Wei Haizheng asked.
"It seems you know everything." Yun Qiao smiled slightly.
The old man immediately waved his hand: "You misunderstood, I don't know anything. Now it is Premier Xu who is forming the cabinet. He told my nephew about Granny Xiao, and I knew it was her."
At that time, my family and some people from the Xiao family said that she was very evil and that she was transformed into a goblin. So I was not very surprised when I heard about these things."
Yun Qiao: "Governor Xu was in Anhui before, and we did meet him."
The old man looked at her even more surprised.
"...Are you here to pay homage to my grandma?" Yun Qiao asked again, "Now that the rain has stopped, I will take you there. The road over there is difficult."
The old man said yes.
Along the way, Yun Qiao tricked him.
He seemed very shrewd, but he had no reservations about Yun Qiao.
"Grandma said that your Wei family all moved to England decades ago. What did you do when you came back this time?" Yun Qiao asked.
Wei Haizheng: "My nephew wants to be a diplomat and now serves as the Minister of Foreign Affairs in the Peking Cabinet. When I come back this time, I don't plan to go back to the UK again.
I am getting old, and I want to be buried in my hometown when I die. Secondly, my nephew and his family have returned to Peiping, and I also want to think about family happiness and be with them."
Yun Qiao asked: "Nephew? Do you live with your nephew?"
"Your grandmother and I divorced - we called it Heli at that time - and after the divorce, I got married twice more. I also had a few confidantes. I had seven children in my life, but none of them survived to adulthood." Wei Haizheng
Sighed.
Yun Qiao: "..."
This must be a sign of poor character.
"Later, I had no choice but to adopt a cousin's son, and now he is considered my son." Wei Haizheng said, "If your grandma were still alive, she would definitely say that this was my retribution."
"She won't."
Wei Haizheng thought for a while and said with a smile: "She really doesn't know how. I have had many women, and they all hate me because they all have feelings for me. If your grandma doesn't hate me, she doesn't have me in her heart."
"Grandma is open-minded." Yun Qiao said.
"She is indeed open-minded." Wei Haizheng smiled again, "I only heard Premier Xu talk about your affairs. He doesn't know much about Granny Xiao's personal affairs. Is your grandpa still alive?"
"I don't have a grandfather." Yun Qiao said.
Wei Haizheng: "Then..."
"My mother is the illegitimate daughter of a maid by my grandmother's side." Yun Qiao said.
Wei Haizheng seemed surprised: "Your grandmother didn't get married again?"
