This old man is like a child when he gets old. He is so willful and threatens and cheats at any time.

After picking, Mr. Meng agreed to go to the restaurant with her first.

I didn’t say first, what if the food cooked in the family is not enough?

While eating, Mr. Meng told her the origin of the Meng family compound.

"That was a long-standing fate between the Meng family and the Nian family." Mr. Meng sighed and said, "The mother of the past was named Nian. Their family also belonged to the old capital. It was just that something happened in the family in the Qing Dynasty. They could only buy the house at a low price, exchange it for money as the travel expenses for the family, and leave the capital."

Jiang Xiao poured him a cup of tea and listened to him continue.

"The person who bought this house was my grandfather. From then on, Nian House became Meng's house. Later, when the military district courtyard was built, I chose this area and said that we would also enclose our house. Therefore, Meng's house is the most special house in the courtyard."

Hey, can this be done?

Of course, Mr. Meng did not explain too clearly why this is because of the reason.

"Later, the descendants of the Nian family moved back to Beijing and wanted to buy this house. By the way, the father of the former mother came to discuss. We have lived there for several generations and regarded it as our ancestral home. How could it be sold? I told him at the time, "What's the difficulty? I'll marry your daughter to my son and treat this house as our two families in the future?"

Speaking of this, Mr. Meng sighed heavily.

"I don't know if it's a bad fate. I was originally a joke, but my father really fell in love with his mother. Not long after, his father told me that he wanted to marry that girl."

Jiang Xiao was a little fascinated by hearing this.

She didn't expect that Meng Xinian's father's family and mother's family had such a connection.

"They still had a very loving life after they got married. My daughter-in-law is very good, smart, generous, and she teaches her children very well."

If so, why did they make a fuss like that later?

The wife died of illness, and the husband soon married another woman, and he still spoiled her second wife so much.

"I don't know what happened later, but they suddenly quarreled every day. Then Chaojun started to go out early and come back late, sometimes he was drunk, and his daughter-in-law became taciturn and lost weight day by day. Later......."

It turned out like this later.

Sometimes he wanted to mention these things to Meng Xinian, but Meng Xinian didn't want to listen at all.

"Grandpa, do you insist on guarding this old house because you think that this old house belongs to Brother Old Man's mother?" Jiang Xiao asked.

Mr. Meng sighed and said, "This is the biggest reason, and another reason is that there was a rumor later. Of course, even the rumor may not be credible."

He lowered his voice and said, "I heard that the old man from Nian's family sold the house and didn't know that his old lady hid a bunch of jewelry that the Nian's family had saved for many years in a certain place in the house! The old lady was said to have died of illness suddenly and had no time to tell them about this, so the old man didn't know at all, and he thought that all the things in his family were ruined by the old lady before."

"puff!"

Jiang Xiao sprayed a sip of tea.

It wasn't her rudeness, but she thought the story told by Mr. Meng was so bizarre! It was beyond her mental preparation, so she couldn't control it for a while.
