Immediately, a deep sadness appeared on the old lady's face.
After several seconds, the old lady slowly came back to her senses and sighed deeply.
"When did it happen?"
"Not so long ago!" I said.
The old lady nodded and suddenly pulled Cao Yunlong in front of me.
"Xiaolong, hurry up, kowtow to the young master!"
Cao Yunlong was stunned immediately and let out a confused look.
Apparently he couldn't figure out why the old lady suddenly asked him to kneel down for me?
Let alone Cao Yunlong, even I was confused.
Could it be that there is some special relationship between this old lady and my grandfather?
"You kid, don't you remember the benefactor I told you before? It's Fourth Master Zhang! He is the savior of our family. If it weren't for him, our family would have died long ago!"
The old lady looked very excited.
"But, this is against the rules!" Cao Yunlong was still embarrassed.
"Mom doesn't understand what the rules are. Although she has little education, she knows that the grace of saving lives is greater than God. Fourth Master saved our family. Now that Fourth Master Zhang is gone, why are you kowtow to his descendants?"
The old lady seemed extremely stubborn!
Cao Yunlong immediately looked at me with an embarrassed look on his face, not daring to contradict his mother.
I also quickly spoke to stop the old lady, "Grandma, Mr. Cao is right, this is against the rules. I am so young, I can call him uncle. I can't do it, absolutely don't do it!"
"Young Master, you don't have to go through it. Fourth Master Zhang will never be able to repay his kindness to our family in this lifetime. It's not an exaggeration for him to kowtow to you!"
While talking, Cao Yunlong was pulled and forced to kneel down. Although Cao Yunlong was unwilling, he could only obey the old lady's words.
Seeing that he was about to kneel down in front of me, I quickly grabbed him.
"Grandma, let's do this. I'll take Mr. Cao to my grandfather's grave later and put incense sticks on it. I'll treat him as if I'm here to see him! Do you think this will work?" I asked.
When the old lady heard what I said, she thought for a moment and then nodded gently, agreeing with what I said.
Cao Yunlong breathed a sigh of relief and gave me a grateful look.
I quickly took advantage of this moment to change the topic and asked the old lady how she was feeling physically.
But the old lady sighed, "I don't have much time left with my old bones. I can live as long as I can!"
Seeing the calm look on the old lady's face, I quickly reached out my hand and felt her pulse again.
The old lady's palms were a little warmer than before, but her pulse beat was still weak. It seemed that the snake spirit had done a lot of damage to her. If she didn't take care of her in time, she would definitely get the root of the disease in the future.
By then, it is estimated that she will not live for a few more years as she said.
Suddenly my heart moved, and I quickly took out a fragment of stone tire from my backpack.
The turquoise jade sparkles under the light. After all, this jade once warmed the dragon veins. Although it is not as good as the Panlong Jade hanging around my neck, it is definitely an extremely rare and good thing.
"Grandma, I'm giving this to you. You should carry it with you. It's very good for your health!"
While talking, I put this piece of jade into the old lady's hand.
The old lady didn't pay attention at first, but after holding the object in her hand for a moment, she suddenly let out a soft squeak.
"Hey, I feel warm and relaxed!"
I looked at her and smiled without saying anything. The benefits of this gravel were indeed what I thought.
I turned to look at Cao Yunlong and said: "Go back and tie it with a knot. Don't lose it. With this stone, the old lady can live for many years without any problem!"
"real?"
Cao Yunlong was immediately overjoyed. After seeing my ability, he completely believed what I said.
The old lady is obviously a person who has seen the world. As soon as she heard what I said, she immediately wanted to return the stone in her hand to me.
"Young Master, this should be a magic weapon, right?"
I was slightly stunned. I didn't expect that this old lady knew a lot, and she even knew about magic weapons.
Facing the old lady's question, I smiled and did not answer. Although this piece of jade is not a so-called magic weapon, its efficacy is definitely much better than ordinary magic weapons.
The old lady has rich experience, so she naturally understood the expression on my face and understood the preciousness of this piece of jade.
"This is too expensive, I can't have it, old lady!"
The old lady refused to ask for anything.
Seeing that the argument was going on, I quickly winked at Hu Xue. Hu Xue had a clear mind and took the old lady's hand.
"Grandma, oh, don't refuse, let's go eat quickly, I'm almost starving to death!"
After saying that, I pulled the old lady out and soon Cao Yunlong and I were the only two people left in the room.
Cao Yunlong looked at his mother's disappearing back, then his eyes fell on me, and solemnly said thank you!
It can be seen that he is grateful to me, grateful from the bottom of his heart.
"It's not necessary if you want to thank me. I still say the same thing, just don't get me in trouble. Besides, I don't want other people to know about this, especially the Zhao brothers!" I stared at him and said.
Cao Yunlong nodded decisively, "Don't worry, I know what to do!"
I nodded and said nothing. Cao Yunlong then asked, "Are you really going to Miss Hu's family?"
"Yes, this is the intention of my grandfather and Mr. Hu. I have no choice!" I said helplessly.
Cao Yunlong suddenly took a deep breath and said something I didn't expect,
"If you really want to be the Hu family's son-in-law, I fully support you!"
I looked at him in surprise and could only smile slightly.
"Let's talk about it then!"
With that said, I took the lead and walked out of the door.
When we returned to the restaurant building, the outdoor barbecue had already begun. There was a roasted whole lamb on the grill. Under the scorching flames, hot oil was sizzling out, and a smell of meat filled the air.
fragrant.
In addition to Hu Zi and the others, there were actually many outsiders. It was obvious that they were all customers of Jiudian. At this moment, they actually treated this place as a food stall.
The doorman, on the other hand, was being ordered back and forth by the fat man. His face was dripping with sweat and his face was stained with oil. He was obviously suffering revenge from the fat man.
Hu Xue was very smart and did not bring the old lady here. I was indeed hungry, so I walked to the table and sat down.
Huzi immediately tore off a piece of roasted lamb leg and placed it in front of me.
Just after taking two bites, the fat man next to me suddenly touched me with his elbow.
"What's wrong?" I asked doubtfully.
As soon as he finished speaking, a familiar voice suddenly called Master Ninth behind him.
My body stiffened slightly and my heart trembled.
This voice is so familiar to me!
And there is only one person who calls me that.
Slowly putting down the food in my hand, I slowly turned back.
Wearing a white windbreaker, like a graceful snow lotus, she stood on the top of the cold peak and looked at me with a smile.
