Chapter 881 - Chapter 881 Chapter 881 Grandpas Attitude

Chapter 881: Chapter 881: Grandpa’s Attitude Chapter 881: Chapter 881: Grandpa’s Attitude Luo Liansheng had a favorable impression of Yang Qingyin, which came as a relief to Luo Ziling.

Yang Qingyin herself also breathed a sigh of relief.

Ling Ruonan hurriedly welcomed her, asking Yang Qingyin to sit down and chat.

Although Luo Xusheng didn’t seem very welcoming toward Yang Qingyin, with Luo Liansheng and Ling Ruonan acting this way, he didn’t show any reaction.

As it was almost dinner time, Yang Qingyin was ready to help Ling Ruonan in the kitchen, but Ling Ruonan refused her offer, requesting Luo Xusheng to help her instead.

Given this, Yang Qingyin accepted it and sat down to talk with Luo Liansheng and Luo Ziling.

Because Luo Ziling was raised by Luo Liansheng, and Yang Qingyin had heard Luo Ziling speak many times of his dependence and gratitude toward Grandfather Luo, she had a lot of respect for Luo Liansheng. Yang Qingyin was beautiful and sensible, and Luo Liansheng started to like this pretty girl after interacting with her for a while.

However, he didn’t reveal this liking and remained cool and distant toward Yang Qingyin.

Luo Ziling knew that Yang Qingyin was interested in the life of the small mountain village in the Northwest, so during the conversation among the three of them, most topics revolved around past experiences.

When talking about life with Luo Ziling in the past, Luo Liansheng felt quite sentimental.

After talking for a while, Yang Qingyin took the initiative to propose, “Grandfather Luo, I would like to climb Tianshan with Ziling during the summer vacation next year. How about you joining us then? Ziling said you are very familiar with both the southern and northern parts of Tianshan, and you really understand the nature of the mountains.”

“I could go if I’m free,” Luo Liansheng smiled faintly, pointing at Luo Ziling, “He actually knows Tianshan better than I do. I just have a bit more experience than him, that’s all.”

“Grandfather Luo, he’s so annoying. He doesn’t like to take me along, calling me a drag,” Yang Qingyin coquettishly complained in front of Luo Liansheng, “He also always bullies me, doesn’t know how to take care of others at all. I’m afraid he’ll leave me in some gorge to feed the bears.”

“I wouldn’t do that,” Luo Ziling quickly defended himself, “How could I possibly do such a thing?”

“Who knows, maybe you’ll find it bothersome and just abandon me there,” Yang Qingyin said, looking dissatisfied and sniffling.

Watching the two young people’s adorable bickering before him, Luo Liansheng couldn’t help but laugh.

After living together with Luo Ziling for twenty years, he understood his grandson’s temperament very well.

Although Luo Ziling didn’t have much contact with the outside world, Luo Liansheng knew his grandson was proud and not easy to get along with. He didn’t have a pleasant relationship with the sisters Ouyang Feifei and Ouyang Huihui, but the harmony he had with Yang Qingyin indicated that the feelings between the two young people were not shallow. At least, Luo Ziling’s feelings for Yang Qingyin were quite deep.

Had there been no feud between the Luo and Yang families, he would have liked to see the two affectionate youngsters come together.

Luo Ziling had a tough upbringing, and Luo Liansheng didn’t wish for him to continue that way as an adult.

It’s just that he didn’t know if the grudge with the Yang family could be resolved.

In fact, he didn’t like confrontation with anyone. As he got older, he preferred to live his days in peace.

But he wasn’t afraid of threats from anyone either.

After spending some time conversing with Luo Liansheng, accompanied by the two young people, Ling Ruonan and Luo Xusheng brought out several dishes they had cooked from the kitchen.

Ling Ruonan’s cooking skills could only be considered average, but Luo Xusheng’s culinary abilities were leagues ahead of Ling Ruonan.

Having spent time in the military and learned survival training in the field, coupled with Luo Xusheng’s cooking experience from a young age, his culinary skills were indescribably more refined than those of Ling Ruonan, who entered the kitchen midway through her life as a well-to-do miss. Once in the kitchen, Luo Xusheng took over as the head chef, with Ling Ruonan as his assistant.

Luo Xusheng was quick at cooking. While Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin were talking with Luo Liansheng, they had already prepared several dishes.

Bringing out the dishes, seeing Luo Liansheng chatting cheerfully with Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin, Luo Xusheng couldn’t help but sigh.

Of course, he didn’t want Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin to be together.

He was worried that their relationship would become a tragedy, and he did not want his son to repeat the tragic past he had with Luo Liansheng. Luo Liansheng had implied earlier that he hoped Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin would not get together, but from his current behavior, he seemed quite fond of Yang Qingyin.

If Luo Liansheng was not against Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin being together, then he would feel out of place to comment.

Luo Xusheng had planned to find an opportunity tonight to talk to Luo Ziling about Yang Qingyin.

It seemed there was no need to talk to Luo Ziling about this matter now.

Soon, all the dishes were ready, and the five of them sat down to have dinner together.

Ling Ruonan had prepared Yuezhou Old Wine, and Yang Qingyin, not often a drinker, also had a bit of the strong and rich Daughter’s Red.

After dinner, Yang Qingyin and Ling Ruonan cleaned up the bowls and dishes, and then Yang Qingyin took her leave.

“This girl is quite good, very sensible, well-educated and refined, and she even has a bit of shrewdness. If not for the grudge between the two families, she really would be a suitable wife for Ling’er,” Luo Liansheng said in front of Luo Xusheng and Ling Ruonan, after Yang Qingyin had left, and he seriously addressed Luo Ziling, “If you are determined to be with her, you can try to persevere. However, Grandfather does not have high hopes for your future, considering the Yang Family still harbors deep-seated hatred toward the Luo Family. Unless she severs ties with the Yang Family.”

Hearing Luo Liansheng bring up Yang Qingyin, Luo Ziling, Luo Xusheng, and Ling Ruonan were all a bit surprised.

“Grandfather, can we just let nature take its course?” Luo Ziling earnestly replied, “If we continue to get along well and don’t grow tired of each other, then we’ll do our best to stay together. If, over time, we both become weary and the conflict between our families is irreconcilable, then we will choose to part ways on our own. Let us make our own choices, okay?”

“Grandfather will respect your decision,” Luo Liansheng nodded, then looked at Ling Ruonan. After a couple of bitter laughs, he said, “Initially, I thought Ouyang Feifei was pretty good, a sensible girl with capabilities, and pretty too. The Ouyang Family has a good relationship with our family. If the families were to be united in marriage, it would be a good choice for both of you and for our families. But Ruonan was afraid that you would be harmed by the marriage arrangement again, so she suggested to me to end the engagement. Old Man Ouyang hasn’t agreed to cancel the engagement yet, and Ouyang Feifei seems willing to be with Ling’er too.”

Seeing Ling Ruonan trying to intervene, Luo Liansheng waved his hand, “What I want to tell Ling’er is: If things don’t work out with Yang Qingyin, then Ouyang Feifei is a good option. If you have the capability and they are willing, marrying both wouldn’t be a problem.”

Luo Liansheng’s words left Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan exchanging glances, while Luo Xusheng showed no change in expression.

He had heard similar things before.

“Grandfather, how is that possible?” Luo Ziling said with a bitter smile. “We’re not in ancient times, how could I possibly marry two women at the same time? Even if it were possible, they would never agree to it. So, such a thing is utterly impossible.”

“Knowing that it’s utterly impossible, then when you make your choice, you must be careful. Otherwise, you will regret it in the end.”
