Chapter 1285 Grandma’s twin sister?

"Old monitor!"

"Zhong Mo! The cave!"

The small room was filled with the camaraderie of long-lost comrades. The three men who had not seen each other for decades hugged each other, tears streaming down their faces.

Li Xiangnan pursed his lips, walked lightly to the door, and quietly closed the door.

At my grandfather’s age, he can still meet his former comrades-in-arms, and he can experience this unforgettable comradeship.

After all, just last February and March, he personally went to Jiaozhi to participate in the battle and made friends with a group of brothers who had been through life and death together.

When I returned to the room, Ruobai had already fallen asleep. Perhaps she couldn't sleep well because I didn't come back, and she woke up after hearing the footsteps.

"I'm sorry for waking you up!" Li Xiangnan went over and sat on the edge of the bed and scratched his wife's nose.

"Hmm~" Qin Ruobai moaned, and took a look at the watch on the bedside table. "Why did you come back just now? It's already past 11 o'clock! You must be tired after driving all day! I have to talk to Uncle Zhang tomorrow. I can't do this next time we meet!"

"It's not bad. Uncle Zhang is so old, but he has stayed up with me until now! If I couldn't handle it as well as him, I would be laughed at!"

Li Xiangnan smiled, went to find a pair of slippers to change into, then fetched some water and sat beside the bed to wash his feet.

"Is Uncle Zhang going to rest?"

"Not yet, I'm chatting with grandpa! Their old comrade-in-arms is here!" Li Xiangnan did not hide anything and told the truth.

"Is that the one Uncle Zhang mentioned during dinner tonight?" Qin Ruobai pondered.

"Yeah, yes, I guess it should be the leader of the National Security Bureau or something like that. It's hard to reveal their identities, so we can only meet at night! Don't worry, they can chat and reminisce about their youth! It will be rare to have such an opportunity in the future!"

After washing his feet, Li Xiangnan snuggled into the quilt and told him about what happened to his grandfather when he met the grandmother that night.

"Ah? Grandma's twin sister?"

After hearing this, Qin Ruobai sat up immediately, with a look of doubt on his face, "I have never heard Song Yi talk about this, let alone her grandmother! Could it be a mistake?"

Song Yi's grandmother Yu Jingran and her grandmother Mu Huanying have taken photos together. They have a very good relationship and are very good friends.

"You're right. If you want to know more information, you really have to ask Grandma Song!" Li Xiangnan looked at his watch and brought over the phone, but he was a little hesitant.

Qin Ruobai held down the phone and shook her head, saying, "Don't call yet. Wait until you get back to Beijing! It's a waste of time to make a long-distance call in the middle of the night. Grandma Song should be asleep! If I tell her about this, I'm afraid she won't have a good New Year! It's better to wait until we get back to Beijing!"

"You're right! Or I was too impatient!"

"I can understand that. Anyone would lose their composure if this happened to them! After all, this is about grandma's business!"

Qin Ruobai rested her little head on her husband's arm, her nose slightly raised.

Li Xiangnan turned his head to see her expression and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"I feel like I've heard of that Cuttlefish Project you mentioned somewhere before." After Qin Ruobai said this, he confirmed, "Are you sure it's Mozi's Mo? Not Mo from Silent?"

"Have you heard of Project Cuttlefish?"

Li Xiangnan was extremely surprised. He looked into his wife's eyes and immediately shook his head and said, "That's what my grandfather said, but it should be cuttlefish ink! Where did you hear that?"

"I..." Qin Ruobai bit her lip and quickly shook her head, "I forgot! But I definitely heard about this Cuttlefish Project somewhere!"

"It's okay, think about it carefully and tell me when you come up with it!" Li Xiangnan covered his wife's eyes with his hands, "It's late, go to bed! You can go home tomorrow!"

"it is good!"

My wife's voice gradually became calmer and her breathing slowly relaxed.

But in Li Xiangnan's tightly closed eyes, his eyeballs kept moving.

He fell asleep in a daze.

In his dream, he suddenly appeared in the endless desert Gobi, and in the distance there was a huge flying cuttlefish swimming in the air.

After a while, he appeared in the abyss of the ocean again, and not far away, a huge gray pupil was staring at him without blinking.

Then, this face turned into Yu Jingran, then into Mu Huanying, and finally returned to his home in Yanjing.

He saw that in the family photo, his grandmother had sat back on the empty chair.

boom!

Suddenly.

As time passed, he suddenly stood outside his old home, the blazing fire illuminating his astonished face.

In the courtyard of the old Huizhou-style house, flames licked the horse-head walls and the wooden beams crackled.

The carved window frames turned into charcoal, the green tiles collapsed piece by piece, and sparks splashed on the white walls, burning yellow holes.

There was a half-foot thick layer of ashes in the patio, with wisps of blue smoke rising out of it. All that remained of the ice-cracked wood carvings hanging from the eaves was a distorted outline.

The firelight made the walls glow red, and the once exquisite brick carvings and stone carvings were now immersed in the thick smoke, gradually becoming unrecognizable. Only the broken walls and ruins were left, glowing with the faint light of embers in the twilight.

He saw his grandmother Mu Huanying coming out of the fire carrying an old man on her back, and it was his grandfather Li Dequan.

Behind them, among the collapsed wooden beams and buildings, the bodies of the Li family were scattered all over the ground...

“Grandpa, Grandma!!!”

Li Xiangnan shouted loudly and suddenly woke up from the bed, and found that the entire bed where he was lying was wet with his sweat.

"What happened?"

Qin Ruobai opened the door and came in hurriedly carrying soy milk, fried dough sticks and a bottle of boiled water. She put all the things on the table with a panicked look on her face. Seeing that Li Xiangnan's face and forehead were covered in sweat, she hurried over to hug her husband.

"Xiangnan, it's okay, it's okay, you had a nightmare, it was a nightmare, I'm here, I'm here!"

"Hu, hu, hu!"

Li Xiangnan opened his mouth and gasped violently. He touched his forehead and neck, which were almost all covered with sweat. He hugged Ruobai tightly and took a long breath, "I'm fine, it was just a dream!"

Qin Ruobai let him go and quickly poured him a glass of water. "Drink some hot water, you are too nervous!"

"..."

After gulping down a glass of water, Li Xiangnan lifted the quilt and walked to the window. The sunlight outside was shining brightly, and the city had regained its former vitality.

This was the first time he had had a nightmare in a long time.

"Go home, Xiangnan! Go home and don't think about anything! Grandma will definitely come back!" Qin Ruobai stepped forward to comfort him and took out breakfast from the lunch box one by one.

After breakfast, I went downstairs and saw Grandpa Li Dequan, Zhang Zhidong, Hu Yubin and others were already waiting by the car.

In addition to their own car, the Honghui Chamber of Commerce also had a car waiting, and they were also going to visit Lijia Village together.

"Grandpa!" Seeing Li Dequan, Li Xiangnan walked up to him and greeted him.

Li Dequan seemed to know what he would ask. He smiled and patted his grandson's arm. "Grandpa Liu left in the early morning! He left you his phone number."

As he spoke, he stuffed a piece of paper into Li Xiangnan's pocket, patted it, and then got into the car with a smile, shouting, "Okay, let's go! Xiao Zhang, let's go!"

Li Xiangnan didn't ask Liu Zilong why he left him his phone number, and got into the car.

Zhang Zhidong walked to the main driver's seat, leaned over, and whispered, "Call your grandfather. I'll have someone check. Wait for my news!"

"Uncle Zhang, please!" Li Xiangnan smiled and nodded to him.

Then, two cars drove out of the guesthouse compound and headed south.
