Chapter 179: Young Madam’s welcome ceremony
Of course, Tang Xin didn’t agree to Li Tian’s request. Not only did she not agree, but she also said before she left,”Crazy.
Li Tian was puzzled. Didn’t you say that I can look for you if it’s inconvenient? it’s obvious that it’s inconvenient. Can I go there by myself?
The next day, Lin Yiyi went to the office, while Li Tian accompanied Wang Ma to do some shopping.
At first, Lin Yi wanted to buy some gifts since it was her first time in the Li family, but Li Tian immediately rejected her idea.
Li Tian’s home wasn’t there.
Was a place without any family or good memories a home?
Lin Yi returned from the office at noon. Wang Ma made lunch for the two of them, and after eating, the two of them set out for Yanjing.
Tomorrow was the old man’s 100th day. The Li family would definitely hold a ceremony, and many people who had good relations with the Li family would come. It was not to pay respects to the old man, but to organize a banquet in the name of the old man.
This was the upper class. They were always thinking about building up connections in order to reach some kind of cooperation or bring some convenience to themselves in the future.
No matter what, Li Tian still had to go through the formalities.
“Let’s go straight to the cemetery. After that, we’ll find a hotel and go to the Li family’s house tomorrow. ‘
Li Tian said to Lin Yi as they got into the car.
He really didn’t want to stay in the Li family’s house any longer. The reason he came early was to visit the old man in the cemetery.
The only thing Li Tian could do was to find an opportunity to visit the old man.
When he was young, his grandfather had treated him quite well. When the family had ostracized him, the old man had arranged an exclusive small courtyard for him. It could be considered as another form of protection for him.
“Yes, sure.”
It would take about three hours to get to Yanjing. Lin Yi and Huo yunshen left at 1 p.m. And arrived at Yanjing around 4 p.m. It wasn’t Lin Yi’s first time in Yanjing, either. The company was huge, so she must be on frequent business trips. She wasn’t unfamiliar with Yanjing.
The old man’s Cemetery was in a luxurious Cemetery. There were many important figures buried here. There were soldiers patrolling every day to ensure the safety of the cemetery and prevent anyone from entering and destroying anything.
Those people wouldn’t stop anyone from coming to pay their respects. They could tell by looking at the things in Li Tian’s hands, so they were allowed to pass.
Li Tian had been here three months ago, so he clearly remembered the old man’s grave.
Li Tian walked up to the tombstone and noticed that there were fruit baskets, chrysanthemums, and the like in front of it. It was obvious that someone had come to pay their respects.
Lin Yi didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary. After all, wasn’t it normal for people to come and pay their respects? However, Li Tian didn’t think so. The Li family was a large family. Even if they came to pay their respects, they would definitely not bring only these few things. It was obvious that these things were brought by private people.
Who would come here?
“Old man, although you’ve treated me well, I’m not very grateful to you. Perhaps you’re only good to me because you pity me, an orphan who has no parents. However, there’s one thing that made me hold back the thought of complaining about you. The wife you found for me is really good, so I brought her to see you today.
Sitting cross-legged in front of the tombstone, Li Tian muttered to himself as he burned the joss paper in his hand.
Lin Yi already knew about Li Tian’s family background. He was also a poor man, and he had never seen his mother before. His father’s memory was also blurry, and she only knew that he met her mother once every three months. She didn’t even know how old her father was or what he liked. Li Tian only knew that he was an irresponsible man. Even if he was bullied, he would never stand up for her.
Later on, even this father was gone. He had disappeared without a trace. Li Tian was very young at that time, and he didn’t feel anything when a person who had no sense of existence disappeared.
Although he had some doubts in his heart about why his father had suddenly disappeared and why his brother had suddenly died, he would definitely not ask about it because it was of no use to him.
Lin Yi was carefully arranging the fruit basket as she looked at the black and white photo on the gravestone. The old man’s face had deep wrinkles, a sign of the passing of time.
Similarly, the old man looked very kind, and there was always a faint smile on his face.
“Grandpa, my name is Lin Yi. You’re the one who sent my husband to me. I’m very grateful to you. Although we’ve never met before, I know that you must be a kind old man, a kind Grandpa.”
The two of them stayed in front of Li Tian’s grave for more than an hour. Lin Yi opened her heart and spoke a lot without feeling shy at all.
In the end, she even snuggled into Li Tian’s arms as the two of them sat in front of the tombstone.
Perhaps the old man was really lonely. Li Tian felt that the photo on the old man’s tombstone seemed to be smiling even more.
“Young master, young Madam, second master asked me to invite you over. We’ve already held a welcome ceremony for you. It’s young Madam’s first time at the Li family, so second master said that the ceremony must be Grand.”
A middle-aged man walked up to the two of them and said softly.
Li Tian knew that he wouldn’t be able to hide his whereabouts from those people. However, he wasn’t interested in the so-called ceremony. However, the Butler had also said that the main purpose of this ceremony was for Lin Yi. After all, Lin Yi was his wife. Even if she didn’t mind, she would be able to enter the Li family in a grand manner, so people would talk less about her, right?
“Hubby, we .
Lin Yi asked. She didn’t mind the ceremony, but she did mind that she wasn’t acknowledged, especially by the Li family. No matter what, she was still the Li family’s daughter-in-law, wasn’t
However, she knew that Li Tian didn’t like it, so she decided to listen to him.
“Let’s go.
To Lin Yi’s surprise, Li Tian actually agreed.
“The Butler should drive in front. We’ll follow behind.”
After speaking, Li Tian stood up and pulled Lin Yi up from the ground. Lin Yi’s legs started to feel numb after sitting there for a long time. Li Tian could only hold her waist and help her walk a few steps.
After getting into the car, Lin Yi said to Li Tian,””Hubby, thank you.”
“What are you thanking me for? I just suddenly remembered that I didn’t bring any money. It’s good to go for a free meal. Although I don’t like the Li family, I can’t deny that their food is quite delicious.”
Li Tian was such a ‘hypocrite’.
