Because… A cold glint flashed across Xia Jinyuan’s eyes. There were some things that he and Little Fox could not interfere in!

Alas, what was his little fox doing now? Chatting with the old master with the Demon King?

He really did not expect that the Demon King, whom he had once warned that he was ‘a step too late’, would actually become Little Fox’s cousin. He had to admit that this was his fate with Little Fox!

On this day, Ye Jian accompanied the old man for the entire day. Apart from going home, she didn’t go anywhere else. The old man, who had recognized his granddaughter, was so energetic that he even spoke energetically. At night, he ate half a bowl of rice more than usual.

At night, he went to bed two hours earlier than usual. Usually, he would only sleep after midnight. Tonight, he felt sleepy at around 10 p.m. In the words of the old man, ‘a long life is still short. You have to live to at least 110 years old.’

Ye Jian and Li Jinnian laughed when they heard that. Li Jinnian even said, “You’re only 88 years old now. You should live to 120 years old.”

“I won’t look forward to being 120 years old. I’ll try my best to live to 110 years old. I’ll be happy if I can see the two of you get married and have children.”

When they talked about their descendants, the old man, who was originally a little sleepy, became energetic again. He said with interest, “I became a grandfather at the age of 61. I’m 88 this year. Let’s see if I can become a great-grandfather at the age of 90. Ye Jian is still young. I remember that female soldiers have to be 24 years old before they can get married and have children. The marriage age of basic officers has to be pushed back. Let’s see if I can get a great-grandchild when Ye Jian is 26 years old.

“Then I have to wait six more years. I have to live well. I have to try to live to 110 and see the birth of my great-grandchildren.”

The old man was looking forward to having many great-grandchildren. Before he went to bed, he reminded his grandson, Li Jinnian, to write the letter as soon as possible and send it to Ye Jian’s father to make him happy.

Li Jinnian felt that his uncle wouldn’t just be happy. He would be so excited that he would dance around with tears in his eyes.

After closing the door gently, he said to Ye Jian, who had a gentle smile on her face, “When I was 24 years old, the old man started mentioning that he wanted to hug his great-grandson. Now that we have you, we can share the responsibility together. The pressure will be halved.”

He was teasing her with a serious expression.

Ye Jian suppressed her laughter until her shoulders twitched. “Then you have to continue bearing the burden. You’re seven years older than me. It’s time for you to get married and have children.” Li Jinnian was 27 years old this year. It was time for him to get married and have children.

“If there’s a suitable girl, I’ll definitely marry her immediately.” Li Jinnian sneered and pushed open the small study room he was in during the day. “Come in and sit for a while. I’ll tell you about the Fu family’s history and you’ll know why Grandpa wants us to get married and have children.” Li Jinnian knew that she was bold. In the past, with his status, she didn’t dare to tease him. Now that he was her cousin, she was bold enough to tease him.

He really hoped that it meant that the two of them were closer.

The old photo album was opened again. Li Jinnian pointed at the group photo that was taken in front of the Fu family’s old residence. His cold voice tainted the darkness of the night as he said in a low voice, “The Fu family is a rich family. We made a fortune at the end of the Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty, and the wealth lasted until the old master turned 28.”

From prosperity to defeat, from being a wealthy family to having nothing at all and not even a place to stay… They flipped through the photo album, and Ye Jian listened to Li Jinnian talk about the Fu family’s history. Ye Jian’s heart sank again.
