Chapter 233
Seeing this, Lin Le smiled awkwardly and had to comfort them: "Just listen to me. It's the same if you eat after dinner."
"Well, the food over there should be ready soon. Let's go there first? Lin Xun, you two will stay for dinner too, right?" Grandpa Lu looked at Lin Le and An Miaoxi.
Seeing this, Lin Le nodded.
He hasn't eaten with the children for a long time.
Hearing this, Grandpa Lu smiled and said, "That's good. I didn't expect to have a reunion dinner together today. Great, great..."
Then Grandpa Lu led everyone out of the classroom and walked towards the house behind.
Lin Le followed with a cake in his hand. Along the way, several children surrounded Lin Le and kept telling interesting stories that happened during this time.
After bypassing the flat building in front, Lin Le found that there was a canteen behind. The air was filled with the smell of food, and there was a large vegetable garden next to the canteen.
"Originally, Mr. An was going to build a garden in these places, but the back of them became my vegetable garden..." Grandpa Lu smiled a little embarrassedly.
"The first floor of the building we saw in front is where the children study and play, and the second floor is where the children live. What you see now is the kitchen." An Miaoxi pointed to the building next to her and introduced.
"The school is also very close to the orphanage. Xiaochen usually takes the children to school, and then Xiaochen and the security guards will be responsible for picking them up after school." An Miaoxi said excitedly.
"Security? Why didn't I see any?" Lin Le didn't see any security guards from the door to the inside.
"Haha, that's because they are busy in the kitchen. After the chefs prepare the food, the security guards will be responsible for helping to send it to the dining table. They usually eat with us." Grandpa Lu explained.
"Brother Lin Xun..."
Suddenly Yueyue pulled Lin Xun's hand.
"What's wrong, Yueyue?" Lin Xun looked down at Yueyue and smiled.
"Miaoxi sister is really good to us. She also paid for us to go to school. I learned a lot of knowledge in school!" Yueyue smiled sweetly.
Xiao Nuomi beside her also nodded: "Miaoxi sister is really good to us, just like Brother Linxun took care of us before!"
"But, I'll tell you a secret, sometimes Sister Miaoxi is very strict, and when she gets angry, she's like a tigress! Once I heard Sister Miaoxi making a phone call, she looked very angry, one hand on her waist and the other holding the phone, as if she was cursing something like 'Such a simple contract can be messed up, you're fired!' It's scary..."
"Brother Linxun, is the fired squid delicious?" Xiao Nuomi blinked.
Although Xiao Nuomi's voice was as small as a mosquito, it was still keenly heard by An Miaoxi who was walking in front.
Her face turned red like a ripe apple at that moment, and the blush spread from her cheeks to her ears.
"Nuomi! What are you talking about!? How can you say bad things about me behind my back! I won't take you to the amusement park next time!"
An Miaoxi pretended to be angry and said, with a hint of blame in her voice.
This was the first time she was described as a tigress! This made her feel a little funny and embarrassed.
She rarely talked about work in front of the children. She always tried her best to create a relaxed and happy atmosphere, not wanting the pressure of work to affect the children's mood.
But the last time was a complete accident. The situation was urgent and she had to go outside the kindergarten to answer the phone.
I thought that the children would not find out, but the quirky little Nuomi still noticed it.
"I'm sorry, Sister Miaoxi, although you are sometimes fierce, you are still a good big sister in my heart!" Little Nuomi blinked her big eyes and stuck out her tongue. Her cute appearance made people laugh.
"Haha..." Xiaochen on the side laughed.
Everyone was very happy during the lunch time.
Lin Le and An Miaoxi sat in the middle of the long table like the head of the family. Xiao Chen and Grandpa Lu sat opposite them, and the children sat around them.
The food was served soon.
Everyone sat around the table and ate happily together. Laughter and joy echoed in the room, and a warm atmosphere permeated every corner.
After finishing the sumptuous meal, Lin Le carefully placed the exquisite cake on the table and began to divide the cake seriously.
The children took the cake with great anticipation and ate happily. Their innocent faces were filled with happy smiles, as if all the happiness in the world was condensed at this moment.
However, at this moment, Lin Le suddenly noticed that Grandpa Lu had not known whenLeft.
A trace of doubt rose in his heart, and he looked around quickly, but he didn't see Grandpa Lu.
So he went outside to look for him again.
Next to the vegetable garden, he found Grandpa Lu.
He was squatting on the ground, smoking a pipe silently.
The smoke rose and slowly drifted in the air.
Grandpa Lu stared at the vegetable garden, as if thinking about something.
There was a deep tranquility in his eyes, as if he was immersed in distant memories.
Seeing this, Lin Le walked to Grandpa Lu and asked, "What's wrong, Grandpa Lu? You look like you are worried..."
Grandpa Lu raised his head and looked at Lin Le, with a smile on his wrinkled face: "It's Lin Xun."
"Nothing, just thinking of some things in the past. In the past, when your grandma was still alive, she often came to the kindergarten to take care of these children. At that time, your grandma's family was also very poor, and she often sent the vegetables she grew. She worked hard all her life for others, but never thought about doing something for herself..."
Lin Le's eyes dimmed.
"Yes, I really hope grandma can see this scene. These children and I are living well. She must be very happy..."
More than a year has passed, and grandma's kind face has been deeply engraved in Lin Le's heart.
"By the way, Grandpa Lu, you said you had something to tell me just now. What is it?"
When Lin Le first saw Grandpa Lu just now, he looked like he was hesitant to speak.
"Oh, right! Look at my memory! I saw a lot of people here just now, and I was afraid that if I told everyone about this, it might cause you some trouble." Grandpa Lu knocked on the pipe in his hand, and some cigarette ash fell off.
"Do you remember what happened at that time? A group of people came to our Xingyue Village to build a factory..."
Lin Le nodded: "I still remember that they wanted to push down the earth slope of my grandmother's grave."
"That's right. After you left, another group of people came to Xingyue Village. One night, I saw them sneakily drilling holes in the ground, just like tomb robbers. They also took the soil they drilled in their hands and observed it carefully. You also know that there are not many people living in Xingyue Village now.
What they did there was basically unknown. I always felt that their purpose was not just as simple as building a factory. Later, I was afraid that they would move your grandmother's grave again, so I called the police. After the police came, they became much more honest, but I still often saw them wandering around Xingyue Village. I always felt that it was not simple..."
"I always felt that Xingyue Village was hiding some secrets."
Lin Le's brows were getting deeper and deeper. A year ago, it should be Gu Jinnian who was preparing to build a factory in Xingyue Village, and then he went to prison, so the construction of the factory should have been delayed.
But what Lin Le couldn't figure out was why the remote location of Xingyue Village attracted him?
What was the operation of digging a hole in the ground to observe the soil?
Suddenly Lin Le thought of something. Could it be that there was something valuable underground?
For example, some rich mineral resources.
This made sense. The Gu family might have discovered that there were mineral resources under Xingyue Village a long time ago, so they thought of using money to let Grandpa Lu move away, and then they mined it without anyone noticing.
"I know, Grandpa Lu. I will ask someone to check it out in a while. You don't have to worry about this matter."
Seeing this, Grandpa Lu also smiled with relief: "In fact, I am afraid that those people will move your grandmother's grave. Your grandmother has worked hard all her life. I don't want to be unable to rest in peace after death."
"I understand. I will not let anyone hurt the people around me in the future." Lin Le's eyes became more determined.
Looking at Lin Le's eyes, Grandpa Lu was stunned for a moment: "I always feel that you are different from the previous Lin Xun. What happened during the time you were away..."
Today's sun is a bit dazzling, and the sun shining on the face makes people feel very uncomfortable. Lin Le stretched out his hand to block the sun, and he looked at Grandpa Lu again.
"Right, because I found that I still have a lot of things to do. The previous Lin Xun only had one or two months left to live, and he didn't know when he would die. Now my life has been extended, and I can do a lot of things..."
Lin Le put down his hand to block the sun, and the dazzling light shone into his eyes.
