Li Ling smiled slightly: "Mr. Meng is ice-snow smart. I did come here with a purpose. In fact, Mr. Meng likes jewelry so much. I wonder if you have any intention to invest in a jewelry store?"

Meng Xuan laughed and said, "So you are here to do business for your grandma's natal family?"

Li Lingdao: "To be honest, my grandma was in the jewelry business with her family since she was a child. Later, she married my grandpa and she was able to take care of her husband and raise her children at ease. But she has always missed the shop at home. Over the years, the shop has been handed over to my two cousins. Reasonable, the business is deserted, and they seem to intend to sell it."

"Anyway, it's a family business that has been passed down for generations. It's a pity to sell it to others. My grandma is even more sad. So for the happiness of her old man, I want to take over the shop. It's just that my savings are meager, so I want to find a big-spending customer. Mr. Shang Meng is looking for that bracelet, so it's fate."

Meng Xuan said with great interest: "I will definitely buy that bracelet. As for the investment you mentioned, it seems to have some meaning. How about it, when I am free, I will go to that store with you personally. If it suits my mind, I will discuss this matter with you in detail."

Fang Huai and Li Ling walked out of the restaurant, couldn't help laughing and said: "If you really open a store, do you count as doing private work without telling the company?"

Li Ling said: "I don't know much about the jewelry industry. If Mr. Meng is really willing to cooperate, the business of the store will be handed over to my family, and I will still contribute to the company."

Fang Huai said: "Is that so? It seems that I have to invest in the stock myself, and check to see if you have neglected your duties."

Li Ling paused, knowing that Fang Huai took the initiative to help him, he was flattered: "I appreciate the boss' kindness..."

Fang Huai looked at him and said with a smile, "Li Ling, actually, it might not be good if you see things too clearly."

"I hope you can talk to me a little more about humanity, and don't always act in a businesslike manner."

Li Ling's eyelids twitched and he said, "Boss, you don't know that I am a person who does business, but it makes me feel safe."

Fang Huai put his hand on the doorknob of the car, and said with a light smile, "That depends on whether I can make you change."

"..."

With the idea of ​​taking over the jewelry store, Meng Xuan exchanged phone calls with Li Ling, saying that she would return to Linchuan a few years ago and contact him to see the store.

Li Ling remembered that it was during this time in his last life that his two cousins ​​wanted to sell the store and separate the family. But firstly, the business in the jewelry store was deserted, and they would not be able to sell at a good price for a while. When grandma found out, she couldn't help laughing at them for their incompetence, and for wasting the property left by their ancestors for nothing.

Later, it was really poorly managed, and the jewelry store sold it at a low price.

Li Ling thought that if the store was really sold, grandma would have something to do, so she wouldn't have to hang out with his uncle's family anymore.

After he made the plan, he called his grandma when he was at home on the weekend. Don't look at my grandma who has been at home all her life in charge of food, rice, oil and salt. In the jewelry industry, she is much more capable than Li Ling.

It's just a phone call, but no one answered for a long time.Li Ling frowned, found his uncle's home phone and called.

The call was answered by a young woman, and Li Ling deduced that it should be his little aunt.

"Who?"

"I'm Li Ling."

"Li Ling?" The woman breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly whispered, "Fortunately, you called first, so you should come back quickly."

Li Ling's heart sank and he said, "Where's grandma? I called her and no one answered."

"She..." Before the woman could speak, the phone was snatched, and a male voice cursed, "Who are you reporting to?"

Li Ling hung up the phone, picked up his wallet and coat, and went out while booking a bus ticket.

Kang Wan came out of the study and said, "Brother Ling, are you going out? It's time for lunch."

Li Ling put on his coat and said, "Grandma can't get through the phone, and my uncle's family said something happened. I'll go to Linchuan, you stay at home."

He was about to close the door when Kang Wan said, "Wait, I'll go with you."

Li Ling stopped, and Kang Wan took her belongings and came out with him, "It's better for two people to take care of each other than one person."

Li Ling didn't force him, so he booked another ticket and drove Kang Wan to the high-speed rail station.

It took only two hours from Zhushi to Linchuan high-speed rail. Li Ling was silent all the way, thinking about all the bad things in his heart. He even began to faintly regret the decision he had made. fist.

Kang Wan put her hand on the back of his hand, conveying silent comfort.

Li Ling contacted his classmate in the car and asked him to drive over to pick him up. The other party was also very loyal. When Li Ling and Kang Wan walked out of the station, they were already waiting outside in the car.

The three of them went to Uncle Li Ling's house along the address.

Going upstairs and knocking on the door, the people in the room came to open the door while asking "Who is it?" It was an old woman who saw three big men standing outside, and said timidly, "Who are you looking for?"

Li Ling said: "I am Li Ling, the grandson of Tan Zhuyun, is she at your house?"

The old woman said: "My mother's grandson."

A middle-aged man with a pot belly walked out from behind her, and when he saw Li Ling, he said, "You!...you came sooner."

"Little uncle." Li Ling looked at him coldly and said, "Where's grandma?"

When the little uncle saw that Li Ling was bullying him, he couldn't hide it. He said flickeringly, "She, she's in the hospital."

Li Ling's heart jumped, and he suppressed his anger and said, "She worked so hard to help you raise your son, and that's how you treat her?"

The little uncle poked his neck and said, "She fell by herself, so what does it matter to me? Is this your attitude when talking to elders?"

Li Ling asked, "Which hospital?"

Li Ling's classmates and Kang Wan were all staring at his little uncle, but this man didn't dare to speak harshly, and reported the name and ward number of a hospital.

Li Ling turned around and went to the door, then turned back and grabbed his uncle by the collar and pinned him to the wall. The old woman yelled, "What are you doing, you beat me up!" Another little girl and another ran out of the room. Young woman with unruly hair.

Li Ling said to his little uncle word by word: "From now on, what happens to her has nothing to do with you. You'd better stop thinking about her, or I will reveal all your dirty things." .”

Saying let go of him, the little uncle staggered and fell to the ground, and the woman in the room went to help him tremblingly.Li Ling glanced at it, turned around and left.

His classmate drove them to the hospital again.It was already late at this time, and Li Ling asked his classmate to go back when he arrived at the hospital.Then they went to the inpatient department. After asking the nurses, Li Ling and Kang Wan took the elevator to the orthopedic ward on the No.19 floor. When they walked to the door, they saw grandma lying on the hospital bed in the middle, eating an apple and watching it. TV on the wall.

Li Ling felt extremely uncomfortable.From a young age, in his eyes, and even in the eyes of everyone, grandma was a shrewd and capable woman. Everyone said that grandpa was powerful himself, and he was even stronger than him when he married a wife.But grandma has always been gentle and sympathetic to Li Ling, while she is indifferent to his two uncles, but it is difficult to part with them.

Her son was unfilial, her daughter ran away, her husband passed away, and the family was separated. She accepted all these calmly. She had three children, but none of them inherited her firm and calm character.

Li Ling walked lightly to the hospital bed. Grandma turned to him and was startled when she saw him, and said, "Lingling! Why are you here?"

Li Ling leaned over to shake the old man's skinny hand and said, "If I don't come, will you stay in the hospital until you are discharged? Why don't you call me?"

Grandma said: "I was admitted to the hospital last night. I had a few tests, but no surgery was scheduled yet. I left my phone at home, and I have a bad memory, so I can't remember your phone number." She saw Kang Wan behind Li Ling, "Xiao Wan is here too? I see you mobilize the crowd."

Li Ling said: "I called you and if you didn't answer, I knew something was wrong."

Grandma said: "It's just a small fracture. The doctor saw that I was old, and specially sent a nurse to take care of me. After the examination, the operation will be performed."

Li Ling said: "Is it true that my little uncle is trying to hide it from me, and won't even bring you the phone. Did he call you when you were injured?"

Grandma sighed: "His business in the factory is not good recently. There is a big problem with a batch of goods. The old customer who has been with him for more than ten years refuses to renew the contract with him. This is not angry and anxious. Your little aunt will go outside to pick him up." , he beat her at the door of the house instead, which made Huilin cry. I wanted to tell him to stop, but he pushed her up the stairs instead."

Li Ling's chest heaved a few times, but he couldn't swear in front of his grandmother, and said, "Did you pay the hospital expenses?"

Grandma said: "Your uncle paid it all, but I asked him for the phone number and he refused to give it, lest you know."

Li Ling sneered and said, "Are you afraid that I will know if he doesn't come to take care of you while you are in the hospital?"

Grandma said: "Aren't you afraid that you will let me go back? I know his regular customer, and I still have a friendship with him. He still expects me to make peace."

Li Ling was silent, grandma looked at him, patted him on the head with a smile and said: "Okay, grandma is an old man, will she still be bullied by your incompetent uncle? Just don't argue with him, fight with him It's pointless to compare."

She asked Li Ling and Kang Wan to sit beside her bed: "You haven't eaten dinner yet? Then the hospital will send you boxed lunches later, so you can buy them yourself. There are apples on the cabinet in Xiaowan. They are all washed. I'm hungry." Just eat one."

The middle-aged woman who came to accompany her family in the next bed said: "You are still blessed to grow old. Although the son is not up to the mark, the two grandsons are so filial and handsome."

Grandma looked at the two of them with a smile and said, "That's right."

Li Ling lifted the quilt to look at grandma's broken leg, and asked, "Is the doctor here?"

Grandma said: "The doctor in charge of the bed is Dr. Wang. His name is written on the door. He should be still operating now, but he usually comes over at night."

Li Ling went to the door to have a look, then came back and said, "The nurses in the hospital are too busy, so we still need to hire a nurse."

Grandma pointed to the middle-aged woman and said with a smile: "Her mother is also hospitalized here and is about to be discharged, so I temporarily asked her to be an escort, 200 a day."
