Li Chengling is not stupid, he naturally understands that this is just Li Ning using the child as an excuse.

Father and daughter for so many years, when Li Chengling has received such care from Li Ning, I can't tell what it feels like.

While moved, there is some regret and helplessness.

Thinking that if he had awakened earlier, or if he hadn't been so decisive in the past, and had considered Li Ning a little more these years, the relationship between the father and daughter would definitely not be so cold.

"Don't worry, I will take care of myself." Li Chengling said in silence for a long time.

Li Ning paused for a moment, "I'm not worried about you."

Li Chengling couldn't help but feel chilled when he heard these words before, but now he just smiled.

"Actually, your personality is very similar to your mother." Li Chengling suddenly felt something in his heart, and said the psychological words without thinking too much.

Li Ning frowned, and his face darkened a bit.

Every time Li Ning's deceased mother was mentioned, the father and daughter would definitely quarrel.

The death of Li Ning's mother was a nail in her heart that could not be pulled out or swallowed. It had already been firmly nailed into her heart, and with the passage of time, it penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and it hurt at the touch.

Li Chengling also noticed the change in Li Ning's expression, and he couldn't help showing embarrassment at the moment, and even a little bit of worry during the period.

The relationship between father and daughter is like soap bubbles floating in the air, seemingly intact, but in fact cannot stand the touch.

The topic of Li Ning's mother is like a sharp needle, if you poke it lightly, the soap bubble will instantly disappear.

And just when Li Chengling was worried that Li Ning would have a big fight with him like before, or just turn around and leave.

But Li Ning just frowned, didn't say anything, paused for a moment, then continued to put the food in the refrigerator, as if he didn't hear what Li Chengling said just now.

Seeing this, Li Chengling couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief, hesitated but didn't dare to bring up the matter of Li Ning's mother again.

"Go and play with the children, I'll clean it up here." Li Ning said calmly without looking at Li Chengling.

"Okay." Li Chengling nodded, glanced at Li Ning and went to the living room.

After Li Chengling left, Li Ning let out a deep breath unconsciously, feeling both helpless and relieved.

Li Chengling's home furnishings were very simple, and naturally there were no things for the children to play with, but he went back to his study and rummaged through the boxes for a while, and took out a small yellow translucent plastic box.

"Let's play with this." Li Chengling walked up to the child with the box, as if preparing to show off the baby.

"Grandpa, what is this?" Xiao Yu asked.

Li Chengling opened the box with a smile, took out a colorful plastic sheet, and spread it out on the table, "This is called checkers, have you ever played it?"

The two children looked at each other, then shook their heads at the same time.

"Now you children, there are so many interesting things, such as toy game consoles, computers and mobile phones, all kinds. But when your mother and the others were young, they didn't play as many things as you do now, so we occasionally Play this little game."

"Looking at this chess piece, it's different from grandma's Go chess piece." Zong Qing was playing with a checker piece.

"Of course, checkers is checkers, and go is go. This is very simple. You see, I will teach you."

Li Chengling began to explain the rules of checkers to the children, and then placed the chess pieces with the children.

When Li Ning tidied up the refrigerator and came out of the kitchen with a plate of cut fruits, he saw Li Chengling and his two children lying on the table playing checkers together.

"Grandpa, you are lying, you can't jump like this here, I have already learned it, don't try to deceive me." Xiaoyu said, moving Li Chengling's chess piece back two steps.

"Oh, I just want to test whether you two have really learned it. It seems that you have learned it well." Li Chengling said with a chuckle.

"I think Grandpa, you are afraid of losing to my brother and me, but don't worry, I will let you, and I won't let you lose badly."

The way Xiaoyu plays checkers is familiar. I don't know how he is playing, but the momentum seems to be that of a checkers master.

"You two can play this too." Li Ning put the fruit aside.

"Grandpa taught us, but after grandpa taught me and my younger brother, he kept losing to us." Zong Qing said with a smile.

"That's because grandpa let you two children." Li Ning patted Zong Qing's head.

"That's not it, Mom, grandpa is not good at playing, and he wanted to play tricks just now, but I found out." Xiaoyu said immediately.

"Yes, grandpa is stupid. You two were trained by your mother. If you are half as smart as your mother, I will definitely not be able to defeat you." Li Chengling rubbed the heads of the two children with a smile.

"Then mom, come and play with us. Mom and grandpa are on the same team, and my brother and I are on the same team." Xiao Yu suddenly suggested.

"I haven't played this game for a long time, and I don't even know how to play it anymore, you guys should play it." Li Ning shook his head and said.

"It's okay mom, my brother and I just learned it, it's very simple, just play with it and you'll be fine."

Li Ning had forgotten all about it a long time ago, so he didn't intend to participate in it, but the two children looked at her expectantly, waiting for her to nod, and even Li Chengling smiled and encouraged.

Li Ning didn't want to spoil the fun and let everyone down, so he nodded hesitantly, "Okay then."

"Yeah~" Xiao Yu clapped his hands happily, and then the four of them placed the chess pieces together.

Li Ning thought that he would not be able to play this game for a long time, but after a while, he was already at his fingertips, and it was not deliberate that he was the first to win easily.

"Mom, didn't you say you don't know how to play? Why are you still so good at playing?" Xiaoyu saw that there were still a lot of chess pieces left, but Li Ning was the first to go.

Li Chengling smiled and said, "Your mother was very good at playing this game when she was a child. I can't always play her well."

"Mom used to play this when I was a kid?"

"That's right, this checkers game was actually played by your mother when she was a child. After so many years, it's rare that it's still preserved so well. It's been a long time since I took it out. I thought it was all broken." Mixed with emotion.

"Ah? So this is mother's? Then it will be many, many years." Xiaoyu said in surprise.

Li Ning was also very surprised when she heard this. She had a vague impression that when she was young, she often played checkers with Li Chengling, and then her mother would sit by the side knitting sweaters or watching TV, and from time to time she would give advice to Li Ning on how to walk. Next step.

The memories popped up a bit, and she only remembered now that her mother taught her how to play checkers back then.
