Chapter 51 The Secret of the Li Family (2)(1/2)

After chatting with the old man for a long time, the old man asked Li Hao to take Manhua to the lobby of the front room. Nangong Shui, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately showed a strong smile on his face when he saw the two of them appear, and he quickly greeted him, "You are finally here, come and sit down, come, Miss Manhua come over and do it."

Li Hao took Manhua to sit down opposite Nangongshui. Ali immediately brought the refreshment and fruits, and then stood behind Nangongshui.

From the beginning to now, Nangong Shui has been smiling and looking at Manhua. She is becoming more and more satisfied with this girl. "I don't know where Miss Manhua lives and what she does at home? Why doesn't it seem like I've never heard Hao'er mention you."

"I am single, without father or mother."

Hearing this, Nangong Shui was stunned. He glanced at his son and said, "Miss Manhua, do you say you live alone now? Then you...?"

"Mom, what did you do when you say this?" Li Hao interrupted Nangong Shui's words, worried that his mother would have a conflict with Miss Manhua because of her words.

After Li Hao said this, Nangong Shui quickly changed the topic, "I'm sorry, Miss Manhua must be very hard to live alone. What are the plans for the future?"

Should I marry Hao'er and become her daughter-in-law? Of course, she said this in her heart and did not say it directly.

Manhua smiled and said, "Fortunately, I'm used to it alone, so I don't think anything."

"After all, it's inconvenient to live alone. If you get married, you can live with your husband's family and then have children. This is the final destination of a girl."

"Mom, what are you saying? Why do you say these words in front of Miss Manhua!" Li Hao couldn't listen anymore. He knew that Nangong Shui had misunderstood the relationship between him and Manhua. Due to various reasons, he could not tell her about Miss Manhua, but he was afraid that his mother, who knew nothing, would say even more embarrassing words.

Nangong Shui, who was interrupted many times, looked at his son with an unhappy expression, "Li Hao, why do you always interrupt me? I'm talking to Manhua, what are you talking to?"

Li Hao, who was scolded, really wanted to vomit blood. He looked at Manhua apologetically, hoping that she would not mind. "Mom, I am just an ordinary person, how can I match Miss Manhua?"

"What did you say? Ordinary people, my son is a dragon and a phoenix among people. What kind of ordinary people, Hao'er, when did you become so humble?" Obviously, Nangong Shui was very dissatisfied with Li Hao's words.

"Mom, stop talking. Miss Manhua and I are not what you think. It's because you misunderstood."

"What? Misunderstanding? Did I misunderstand?" Nangong Shui looked at Manhua in a little shocked moment, then fixed his eyes on his son.

Li Hao nodded, "Yes, mom, you really misunderstood. Miss Manhua and I are really not the kind of relationship you think. My relationship with Miss Manhua is the kind of brother's relationship with my sister. I don't have a sister, so I especially hope to have a sister."

"It's really that way!" Nangong Shui suddenly became a little embarrassed. Looking at the two of them, was it really her misunderstanding, but the two of them were really a perfect match!

At this time, Manhua spoke, "Auntie, you really misunderstood. Just as Brother Hao said, I was alone since I was a child, and I especially hope to have a family. Brother Hao has always taken good care of me and treats me like a real sister. So, Auntie, you really misunderstood."

Manhua said in accordance with Li Hao's words that once there is a first lie, there will be a second and third lie to complete it.

"I really misunderstood so." Nangong Shui said with a disappointed look on her face. She thought she really had a chance, and this Miss Manhua seemed to be so suitable for her daughter-in-law. It was a pity.

"Miss Manhua..."

"Brother Hao, don't be so polite, just call me Manhua." If it was really a relationship between brother and sister, wouldn't it be awkward to shout like this?

"This..." Li Hao was really a little embarrassed to shout for a moment. If his grandfather heard it, would he rush over to scold him for being rebellious?

"Manhua!" In the end, Li Hao shouted these two words under Manhua's gaze.

"Mom, Manhua will be here for the next time. I have already agreed with my grandfather that I have asked someone to clean the house on the west wing. I will take Manhua over and take him over to take a look later."

At this time, Nangong Shui was still in disappointment and had no interest in what Li Hao said. He stood up and said, "Just make the decision by yourself. I am a little tired and want to go back to the room to rest. Miss Manhua, I won't be with you anymore."

Manhua also stood up, "Auntie, please take a good rest, I'll disturb you next."

What a polite child! Nangong Shui felt even more a pity. It was so compatible, so how could it be just a sibling relationship? Alas! Nangong Shui shook his head and took Ali away with helplessness.

"My mother is just worried about me, and I'll forgive her if you say something that makes you uncomfortable."

Manhua smiled slightly, "I understand that as a mother, the one she cares about the most is her child."

"Then I'll take you to see where you live. If there is anything you don't like, I'm asking someone to change it."

"As long as you can live in someone, I'm not that picky."

The two walked towards the west wing, passed through the garden in the middle, and arrived at the west wing, which was a very quiet place. There was a small pool on the left, with koi carp in it, and there were several rows of bamboo planted behind it. When the wind blew, the bamboo leaves would rustled.

The outside of the house looks very old, but the decoration inside is close to modern times. The combination of ancient and modern times looks like it complements each other. Manhua nodded with satisfaction, "This place is very good, I like it very much."

"This was specially built by my grandfather. It was originally intended to live for you, but because you left later, the place has been vacant here. Because the location is relatively remote, my mother doesn't come here very much. She still prefers big houses in modern styles, and she is still not used to houses of this style."

Manhua looked around at the decorations in the house, and Li Hao followed behind him. Suddenly, Manhua stopped and turned to look at Li Hao.

"You should be thirty this year."

"It's already thirty-one." Li Hao looked at Manhua with some confusion, wondering why she asked about his age.

Manhua stared at Li Hao with her eyes, and her deep pupils were like an ancient well that had not yet been seen for a thousand years. She could be deeply attracted to it at first glance.

"The previous ones were all the debts you owed in your previous life, and you have paid back all the money you should pay back. In the next year, you will have a marriage. If you don't grasp it well, you will be alone in this life."

Li Hao looked at Manhua blankly, "A marriage?"

"Yes, this person is your destined marriage, but there will be many twists and turns between you. If you miss this time, you will never be together again."

"Who is that person?" If there is really such a person, who is she?

Manhua nodded, smiled slightly, turned around and looked at the bamboo forest outside the window, "You will meet soon."

In this way, Manhua lived in Li's house. Everyone was very nice to her, but Nangong Shui still didn't give up and let her become her daughter-in-law.

She believed that although the two said that they were brothers and sisters, they were not real brothers and sisters after all, and they had no relationship at all. After getting along for a long time, they might not be able to have other feelings. Therefore, Nangong Shui always treated Manhua as her future daughter-in-law. Li Hao was also helpless, but the old man said nothing, which made Li Hao not too confused. No matter what his mother thought, it was just her own imagination.

On this day, Manhua left the Li family alone, and without telling anyone, he came to the hospital alone.

An Junhao, who was looking down at the information, heard the knock on the door, "Come in."

After hearing the sound, he looked up and was stunned, "Why are you?"

"Why, aren't I welcome?"

"No! I, I just didn't expect it would be you!" An Junhao stood up, then pointed to the seat in front of him and said, "Please sit down!"

Manhua walked over with a smile. After sitting down in front of him, An Junhao also sat down. "How could you come?"

"I just suddenly want to come and see you. The last time we met, we haven't said anything well yet!"

An Junhao lowered his eyes and nodded, raised a smile on his lips, and then looked up at Manhua, "Last time you said you were going to do something, how did the matter be done?"

"It's not done yet!"

"Can you tell me what's up? Maybe I can help you."

"I want to find someone." Manhua said in An Junhao's eyes.

An Junhao frowned slightly, "Looking for someone? Maybe my brother can help. Finding someone is not difficult for him, but I don't know who you are looking for?"

"I am a person who is very important to me. I have been looking for him for a long time, and I don't know if I can find him this time!"

"It seems that that person is really important to you. If you don't mind, you can tell me who he is and I'll ask my brother to find it for you!"

"No need, thank you, I can only find him!"

"Is that so? I hope you can find him earlier!"

At this time, someone knocked on the door outside, and a nurse stood at the door, "Doctor An, the patient in Ward No. 9 has some problems, please go and have a look!"

"Okay, I understand!" After saying that, An Junhao stood up and said to Manhua, "Sorry, I'll go there!"

"It's okay, go and do your business!"

"Then I'll lose my companion first!" An Junhao said that and left with the nurse.

Manhua stood up and walked to the door, looked at An Junhao's leaving figure, and then turned around and left in the other direction.

By the time An Junhao came back, Manhua had long disappeared.

After leaving the hospital, Manhua wandered around the streets alone, walking around. After standing in the mountains for so many years, after coming out again, she felt a little unfamiliar. Although it was very prosperous, the air here was not as fresh as in the mountains. The air was filled with various polluting elements.

After walking for a while, Manhua saw an antique shop in front of him, so he walked in curiously. Most of the decorations inside were porcelain, including vases, tea sets and jade. Only a painting was hung above the front of the hall. It looked a bit old and painted with mist and rain in the south of the Yangtze River.

The shop is very big, and there are several people choosing to watch those things. A middle-aged man in Tang suit was sitting on a chair with a purple clay teapot in his hand, sitting leisurely there half-closing his eyes, looking very enjoyable. He should be the owner of this shop.

Manhua walked to a shelf and placed a lot of exquisite tea sets on it, all of which were made of porcelain. Across the shelf, there was also someone who was choosing these differences. He liked each set very much, but he couldn't buy them all. He was so confused that he didn't know which one to buy.

Just as I was looking at a cup, someone on the opposite side suddenly took the cup away. At this time, the person on the opposite side saw the person on the opposite side.

"Hey~it's you!"

When Manhua heard the sound, he raised his head in confusion and saw a figure of brother leaving in front of him and then wandering around in front of him.

"Auntie? Are you the aunt from last time?"

Manhua recognized the person in front of him!

An’s mother nodded happily, “It’s me, it’s me! Manhua, right?”

"Auntie still remembers my name!"

"Of course I remember that you impressed my aunt very deeply! I didn't expect to meet her again here today! Do you like these things too?" An's mother glanced at the cup in her hand and said.

Manhua put the cup back to its original place and said, "It's just a look, aunt, where are you?"

"My old man likes it, so I plan to buy one and give him a surprise, but I don't know which one to buy is better!"

"Auntie and uncle are really loving. Well..." Manhua said, turning to look at the tea set on the shelf. After looking at it from beginning to end, he shook his head and said to the middle-aged man over there, "Boss, we want to buy a tea set. Do you have any better goods here?"

Hearing this, the boss opened his eyes, looked at the two women in front of him, and smiled, "Why, those two of them look down on you?"

"Boss, celebrities don't say secret words. These things are good, but if you have any better things, we want to take a look."

The boss frowned slightly, then stood up and said, "Wait a minute!"

After saying that, the boss turned around and walked into the inner room.
