Chapter 227 Worship
The anniversary of the death happened to be a cloudy day, and the wind began to blow. The weather would not gradually warm up until after Qingming Festival.
The cemetery was empty and there were only small black tombstones everywhere. Ni Hao had never been to such a place before and looked around curiously.
"Is grandma here?" she asked Li Yucheng. Li Yucheng had not smiled since he got up in the morning and only responded in a low voice.
Today is not the weekend, so Ni Jia took a special leave from the kindergarten and brought her daughter and her family of four to pay homage.
When they heard that they were going to visit grandma, the two little kids started choosing gifts last night. Haohao picked out a painting he made, while Ni Hao chose his favorite Lego.
They said it was a gift for meeting the girl and asked if her grandmother would like it. Ni Jia just said yes and did not correct them.
The whole family was dressed very simply. Ni Jia and Li Yucheng wore black, and Sanhao wore a white dress. They met Li Chengan at the entrance of the cemetery.
The second young master, who used to be very flashy, changed into a plain black and white outfit today, and waited by the car holding a bouquet of white roses.
When the younger sister saw Li Chengan, she subconsciously hugged Li Yucheng's thighs and hid her little face.
Sensing his daughter's uneasiness, Li Yucheng handed the chrysanthemum to Ni Jia and bent down to pick her up.
"Dad..." Haohao hugged his neck and whispered, "Why is he here?"
"He also came to see grandma." Li Yucheng explained.
"Okay." Although she looked reluctant, Haohao still lay on his shoulder obediently and said nothing more.
Li Cheng'an was quite surprised when he received a call from Ni Jia a few days ago. He originally planned to make a few jokes and hang up, but he didn't expect the other party to mention what happened today.
"My brother finally agreed to bring you here."
On the phone, he still said something in a rude way, but as usual, Ni Jia ignored him again.
"It's up to you whether you want to come or not." That's all the other person said.
Come, of course he has to come. His sister-in-law could call, it must have been with his brother's consent. Since it was his brother's idea, of course he would go.
When the five people met, Li Yucheng just glanced at the flowers in his hand and said nothing. Li Chengan took the initiative to whitewash his hand and say hello.
"Sister-in-law." He called casually, then bent down and waved to Ni Hao: "Hello, little niece~"
Ni Hao didn't even smile, except for blinking. Li Chengan shrugged and stood up, saying to his brother, "You're so cold. It seems like you've inherited it from me."
Li Yucheng felt a little annoyed by his nonchalant look. He was too lazy to pay any more attention to him and turned into the cemetery.
So Li Chengan could only fall behind and walk side by side with Ni Jia, "My sister-in-law is so cruel," he whispered.
Ni Jia didn't respond, so he continued, "Ni fell down, and your sister at least shed a few tears, but you were not affected at all."
Is there any need to be affected, Ni Jia thought, if the Ni Group goes bankrupt, Ni Chang will have no backer, and her backer has never been Ni Dehai, so what does it matter to her whether this company exists or not?
"Judging from the current situation, Ni Corporation will definitely go bankrupt within three months," Li Cheng'an bumped her arm, "Are you really not going to lend a hand?"
Ni Jia walked to the side and said in a calm tone: "I don't have that ability."
"Bragging," Li Cheng'an smiled, "You have quite a lot of overseas assets, and the exchange rate of francs to RMB is even more considerable."
"Why don't you help when you're so eager to help?" Ni Jia retorted.
"Me?" Li Cheng'an spread his hands holding the flowers and raised his chin to indicate that it was all Li Yucheng's fault. "I'm poor now."
Ni Jia naturally knew this. Li Yucheng said that Li Chengan's power in the company was restricted. In addition to the real estate under his name, several bank cards were also limited, and there was no way for large amounts of funds to flow.
In addition, his grandmother knew about Ni Chang's situation and was keeping a close eye on her, so Li Cheng'an could do nothing except pay for daily expenses.
"You can walk faster." Li Yucheng suddenly stopped and looked at Ni Jia worriedly.
"Okay." Li Cheng'an caught up with him in a few big strides, and teased Haohao with flowers behind Li Yucheng. Haohao snorted and turned his head away from him.
"You're still angry." He curled his lips and poked his sister's face impolitely.
"Don't touch me!" Haohao straightened her body, pouted a little unhappily, hugged Li Yucheng's head, face against face, as if she was protecting a beloved toy.
She really hated her uncle, and her good mood was ruined. She just hoped that after seeing her grandmother, this man would leave quickly!
"Dad, when will we arrive?"
"It will be soon." Li Yucheng comforted him and gave Li Chengan a warning look.
Mrs. Li's tomb is located in the best location in the entire cemetery, with a wide view and excellent feng shui. It is right next to Li Yucheng's father.
Ni Jia rarely heard Li Yucheng mention this elder, only a few times occasionally.
She asked Aunt Tong quietly, and it was probably because Li Yucheng's father's personality changed drastically and he did things without restraint, which almost brought down the Huo family, forcing him not to remember what happened later.
The tombstone was very clean, probably because someone cleaned it regularly. Ni Jia didn't know that the two graves were next to each other, so she didn't bring a bouquet of flowers.
But why did Li Cheng'an do the same? She looked at him with some confusion, and saw that he first touched the tombstone of Mr. Li with the bouquet of flowers, and then placed it in front of Mrs. Li's tomb.
"I've also sent you flowers this year." Li Cheng'an put his hands in his pockets and smiled at his father: "You're welcome."
This behavior may seem disrespectful in the eyes of outsiders, but when applied to Li Chengan, it becomes natural, just like something he would do.
No wonder roses were chosen, Ni Jia thought.
Li Yucheng put his sister down, took the flowers and tributes from Ni Jia, and placed them in order.
Completely different from Li Cheng'an, his expression was serious, and every movement he made showed great respect. He handled things with care, as if he was afraid of disturbing anyone.
"Mommy." After seeing the photo, the younger sister seemed to realize something and hid behind Ni Jia, feeling a little helpless.
"Has grandma gone to heaven?" Ni Hao asked.
"Well, now you can give the gift." Ni Jia squatted down and touched her head, encouraging his daughter to go forward and give the gift.
Ni Kan looked at the photo on the tombstone, then looked at the Lego in her hand, pursed her lips, and bent down to put down the gift.
"I hope you like it." She whispered, and Li Yucheng half-knelt down and held her in his arms.
"You go too." Ni Jia pushed his sister.
With her sister's demonstration, Haohao quickly delivered her paintings. She has always been good at speaking, but at this moment she became silent.
After giving the gift, she immediately ran back and hugged Ni Jia, her lips tightly pursed, staring at the photo on the tombstone intently.
Three years ago, Lisa's dog died, and her uncle erected a small tombstone in the yard, clearly indicating that she would never see her grandmother again.
A very beautiful grandma, she was a little sad so didn't want to talk.
Li Yucheng stood up and stretched out his hand. Ni Jia walked forward, held his hand, and stroked his arm soothingly.
Mom, Li Yucheng whispered in his heart: I brought them to see you.
