General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 811: Elder Ling’s Sunset (1)

"What are you hiding from me?" Ling Wei raised her eyebrows. It was obvious that the grandparents were hiding something from her.

"It's okay." Old Ling and Ling Feng said at the same time, their way of trying to cover up something that only makes it more obvious was exactly the same.

"Do you need me to check it myself?" Ling Wei said coldly.

"Sister, Grandpa he..." Ling Feng was ready to betray Grandpa without saying a word, but Old Ling immediately covered Ling Feng's mouth and refused to let go.

Ling Wei raised her eyebrows. It seemed that Old Ling was trying to cover up his guilt. The more he did so, the more curious she became.

"Well, I have something to do, so I'll go out first! Zihao, bring the matchmaker here tomorrow to make the decision!" Old Ling wiped his mouth, said to Chen Zihao, then turned around and slipped away.

Ling Feng also wanted to slip away, but with a look from Ling Wei, Chen Zihao stopped his future brother-in-law.

"What happened to Grandpa?" Ling Wei looked at Ling Feng who had not escaped with anger.

Seeing the threat in Ling Wei's eyes, Ling Feng backed off. "Grandpa has been coughing lately and has been going to the west of the city. I followed him out of curiosity that day and saw him change into ordinary old clothes and pretend to be a boatman, just to wait for an old woman and send her across the river."

"...Old woman?" Ling Wei asked in surprise. Grandpa is planning to get married at this age?

"She's not very old, probably about the same age as my grandfather." Ling Feng thought for a while, "That woman seems to be an elderly person living alone. She has children, but they don't even support her."

"When I got closer, I heard grandpa talking to her about unfilial descendants..." Ling Feng curled the corners of his mouth when he heard that the happiest topic his grandpa talked about was actually the stupid things they had done in the past.

"Grandpa told you not to worry about it, so just don't worry about it!" Ling Wei nodded and said to Ling Feng.

"Sister, aren't you worried?" Ling Feng was stunned. He didn't expect Ling Wei to react so calmly after hearing it. Isn't she worried that the old woman has bad intentions?

He thought Ling Wei would definitely look at him, and might even be more resistant than he was, but he didn't expect her to just wave her hand so nonchalantly.

"What is there to worry about? Grandpa is not a fool!" Ling Wei rolled her eyes at Ling Feng. "It's good for him to have someone he can talk to. Grandpa has worked hard for us all his life. Don't tear him down. Grandpa knows what's going on."

"Besides, grandpa isn't actually old, he's not even sixty yet! At his age, if he really wants to find someone he can talk to, we, as grandchildren, shouldn't stop him." Ling Wei said, "Grandpa has been taking care of those people from the concubine family all these years. In fact, it's because grandpa is lonely. No matter if those people are sincere or not, at least they are with grandpa."

"You were ignorant before and did bad things outside every day. I was busy making money and managing the household every day. Grandpa didn't even have anyone to talk to at home." Ling Wei actually knew this. She had seen Old Ling standing in the garden in the middle of the night looking at the flowers blooming in the yard more than once, but his back was lonely.

"I understand." Ling Feng paused. He knew that he had made Old Ling worried before.

They only cared about themselves and never considered Mr. Ling's feelings. Now, it's their turn to repay their grandfather.

"Find yourself a confidant as soon as possible. I'll leave this to you. I'll take your brother-in-law away first." Ling Wei walked up to Ling Feng and ruffled his hair, ruffling it into a mess before she let him go and left the Ling family with Chen Zihao.

"Goodbye." Ling Feng rolled his eyes and tried to tidy up his hair which was messed up by Ling Wei, but it became more and more messy and he gave up in a huff.
