Chapter 375
The old man paused, and the mother-in-law took her hand. Although ning Qing still could not understand what she was saying, she could see the reluctance on her gentle and loving face.
Her tears came again.
Grandpa didn’t care so much. He said, ” hurry up and take it. Otherwise, your mother-in-law and I will be angry.
After saying that, he even held his chest and coughed a few times. Nian Yu couldn’t argue with him, so she could only hold the velvet box in her hand.
Ning Qing helped the old man up. He took a few deep breaths and said, ” I know. You’re all of extraordinary status and don’t lack money. This gift is just a token of my appreciation. Keep it well.
“Grandpa, Zhenzhen”
The old man steadied his breathing and looked at the sky. The fog dispersed and the sky brightened slightly.
“Alright, it’s about time. You guys can go,” he said seriously:
“......”
The sadness of parting enveloped them, and ning Qing was unwilling to leave. grandfather, mother-in-law, you can go out in the future. Come and take a walk with me.
The mother-in-law wiped her tears. The old man didn’t say anything and just pulled her to the door.
Nian lie carried the heavy bag on his back and placed the palm-sized velvet box into his pocket.
He walked to the door and pulled it open. The old man looked at the two of them again and solemnly said, ” you two must remember what I said. Live well.
Ning Qing bit her lip and nodded.
The old master reluctantly let go of her hand. alright, go on.
Ning Qing’s eyes were filled with tears. mother-in-law, grandfather, Zhenzhen.
“Go on.”
The old man waved at her, then turned to look at Nian lie. remember what I told you.
“Grandpa, I will,” Nian Ying promised solemnly.
The old man lowered his head. you should go too.
“Let’s go, ning Qing.” Nian lie walked to ning Qing’s side and wrapped his arm around her waist.
Ning Qing looked at the two old men who were leaning against each other, and her red lips twitched with a magnificent smile.
“Grandpa, grandma, don’t worry. I will work hard to be happy!”
Through her tears, she seemed to see the smiles on their faces.
Her heart clenched into a ball, but she had to turn around.
At that moment, her tears fell and she almost couldn’t speak.
Nian Jin supported ning Qing all the way down. At first, she kept turning her head back, but when she couldn’t see the two old men anymore, she stopped looking and only cried silently.
Nian lie didn’t say anything else. The two of them had passed by the clear pool. His mind was a little shaken. He looked at ning Qing, but she didn’t notice him at all.
His heart softened. don’t cry. There’s still a long way to go. If you waste your energy like this, it’ll be very difficult later.
Ning Qing looked at him with red eyes. He had to stop and come to her side, affectionately wiping the tears from the corner of her eyes.
“Pull yourself together, ning Qing.”
Her eyes were clearer than the water in the stream. After suppressing her sadness, she said, ” okay.
Nian lie smiled and held her hand. let’s go.
Ning Qing wanted to struggle, but after seeing the big bag on his back, she chose to remain silent.
The mountain road was difficult to walk on. Even if it was downhill, the pothole-filled road would slow down the speed.
Nian lie held ning Qing’s hand and followed the route that he had asked his grandfather about earlier, trying his best not to deviate from it.
They didn’t know how long they had been walking, maybe five or six hours. The sun had risen to the top of their heads. They could tell that it was around noon. They walked in circles, but they had only reached the foot of the mountain.
Nian Ying chose a big tree and stopped under it to let ning Qing rest.
He took out the food and water from his backpack and handed them to ning Qing first.
Ning Qing was extremely hot. The surroundings were wet, and there were all kinds of insects and ants on the ground. It was so stuffy that her whole body felt uncomfortable, and her throat was smoking.
She only took the water and drank many mouthfuls before her thirst was slightly alleviated.
