Chapter 231 Greedy
"Are you okay?" The man came out after seeing the old man sitting in the living room.
Shen Luoyan looked at him and felt that his facial features were somewhat familiar. The man smiled and introduced himself: "I'm Lu Di, don't you remember me?"
".....Indeed, it's been a long time since we last met."
Seeing her admit it, Lu Di couldn't help but look at her profile. After not seeing her for a few years, she hadn't changed at all, except for a new hairstyle.
The courtyard returned to calm. Seeing him standing quietly beside her, Shen Luoyan said, "Would you like to come in and sit down?"
"No need. Grandpa and the others didn't even bring me along when they were chatting." Lu Di touched his nose, his feet as if rooted to the ground, "How about I help you?"
"No need." Shen Luoyan refused. The other party didn't look like someone who would serve these flowers and plants. "I'll do it."
"What kind of flower is this?" Lu Di started the topic and helped her put the tools back in place. "I remember you used to like these plants very much."
He didn't understand, but he remembered that when he was a child, Shen Luoyan would accompany his mother for a walk and always pick two flowers to make her happy.
"It's a daisy, a very tenacious flower." It can survive no matter how you take care of it. She pinched off the withered flowers and only now remembered to take care of the two pots of flowers.
"By the way, I heard from my grandfather that you brought your son back..."
"Yes, he is at the Ji family now."
Lu Di smiled softly and said, "Now our old man is jealous. Ever since he saw your son, he has been urging me to get married every other day."
Mr. Lu only has him as his grandson now, so of course he can only urge him.
"Then come on, you are the only hope for the old man now."
"Hehe..." Lu Di couldn't help but laugh and said, "I'm not as capable as you guys. I haven't even found a wife yet."
Before he could continue, he was interrupted by a voice at the door: "Your standards are too high, don't you think it's worth it?"
"Ji Yuan?"
Shen Luoyan stood up, with a more genuine smile on her face: "Why are you back?"
Ji Yuan stood at the door, his military uniform shining. He probably just came back from a meeting, with a faint smile on his face: "I came back to see grandpa."
He walked over and shook hands with Lu Di first. Lu Di said, "I am going to salute you now."
He really admired this peer, who rose to the top step by step through solid military merits without any help from his family.
"Forget about it in private." Ji Yuan didn't care much about it. He patted his shoulder and went in to say hello to the old man. Seeing that it was getting late, Mr. Lu stood up and said he was leaving.
Ji Yuan escorted them out, and watching Lu Di supporting the old man as he walked away, he turned around and smiled at her, "I brought you some ointment."
The old man glanced at him and said: Don't be fooled by his thick eyebrows and big eyes, he has two faces.
"I'll help you apply the medicine."
Ji Yuan pulled her over and looked at her face carefully, and found that the redness and swelling had subsided a lot: "If it hurts, just tell me."
He had tried his best to be gentle. The ointment was icy cold and it didn't hurt when he applied it, especially the red mark. Fortunately, it didn't break the skin.
"Well, it doesn't hurt." She applied the medicine and looked up at him: "Has Sisi been good these two days?"
"Yeah, he's pretty good," Ji Yuan lied with his eyes open. Anyway, he was handed over to Ji Jingchuan to take care of him. "But I can't hide it for too long. This kid is very smart."
"Well, I'll show up tomorrow," Shen Luoyan nodded, "If he asks, just say I bumped into him."
Ji Yuan turned around and talked to the old man. After a while, the topic came to Fang Yi. Ji Yuan said that she and Xu Tianying went back to get engaged during the National Day holiday.
"What?!" The old man was surprised. He looked at Shen Luoyan, who shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.
"Engaged?"
Ji Yuan nodded. This is what Xu Tianying told him.
"I guess we can only get married after Xiaoyi graduates, so it's normal to get engaged first."
The old man muttered: "Getting engaged so soon... Really..."
"Tian Ying isn't young anymore, just two months younger than me? ....To be honest, too many people have greeted me because of his personal events."
The old man cleared his throat: "I know he is a good one, but..."
Even when Ji Yuan wanted to marry Yan Yan, he couldn't bear to let her go. He had watched Ji Yuan grow up.
"Grandpa, if you are not satisfied, then choose another one for Xiaoyi who is both capable and well behaved."
The old man thought for a long time and gave up: "Really, there is no one. The most promising person in the Northern Military Region is probably Xu Tianying, except for the one sitting next to you."
Shen Luoyan covered her mouth and chuckled. Ji Yuan said helplessly: "Grandpa, you don't have to be so absolute."
"Yeah, as long as Xiaoyi likes it, isn't it fine?"
The old man listened to her, drank his tea and said thoughtfully: "That's right, then I will work hard to maintain my health and make sure to hold on until their wedding."
"Grandpa, can't you hold on a little longer to see Sisi get married?"
"Ahem... that's too far away! I, your grandpa, am about to turn into an old monster!" The old man glared, but the corners of his mouth were smiling, "It would be great if I could see your brother get married one day."
