The little dumpling is five and a half years old, which made his father so angry that his head split

Li Shengli, worried that Li Zilong was too tired, took the two children home.

"Grandpa, why do I feel like Grandpa Guo is looking at us with a bit of an unfriendly gaze?"

"You figured it out?"

Li Tian and Li Zilong both nodded.

Whether they are friends or foes, the children must be made aware of this.

Lee Seungri never felt that they should avoid these things just because they were young.

"Last time you brought back Guo Yan's incriminating evidence, we gave the Guo family a good beating. They had no choice but to accept it, but that doesn't mean they were willing to admit defeat."

"We are not in the same camp as the Guo family, and the current harmony is only superficial."

"They're just waiting for the chance to turn around and bite us back."

Li Tian thought of Chu Xun, who had just had an accident.

Who leaked the news of Chu Xun's transfer?

This is not a classified matter, but it is not something that ordinary people can know.

"Grandpa, does Chu Xun's matter have anything to do with the Guo family?"

Li Shengli neither shook his head nor nodded.

Speculation, without being grounded in wild imagination or supported by evidence, can easily lead one astray.

Navigating the treacherous waters of officialdom is far more arduous than fighting a war.

Some people seem harmless on the surface, but who knows what they might do for their own benefit behind the scenes?

Li Tian couldn't glean any information from Li Shengli's face.

Then let's go along with her train of thought.

"Grandpa, my brother-in-law Liu Mingzhao is a good person. Our two families have no conflict of interest, so we can support him more."

As the male protagonist of the original book, Liu Mingzhao is naturally the embodiment of justice.

Although they are unwilling to get too close to the protagonist and become a stepping stone for the protagonist's progress, they must befriend him and rely on him when necessary.

Li Shengli glanced at Li Tian.

He had a very good impression of Liu Mingzhao, who had a promising future whether in the police force or the National Security Bureau.

There is an opportunity to show goodwill, but how to do it requires careful consideration.

Seeing that Li Shengli didn't seem to mind, Li Tian guessed that her grandfather was probably thinking about how to support him.

It really shouldn't be too deliberate, and it certainly shouldn't be offensive.

It's best to offer help when the other party needs your help.

Li Tian said, "My senior sister is pregnant. Grandma is quite familiar with Grandma Zhou from the maternal and child hospital, right? Grandma can help my senior sister make some connections."

Lee Seungri smiled.

"You can mention it to your senior sister; whether or not it's needed depends on their opinion."

"What you rush into buying isn't real business."

Li Tian understood.

Whether or not we can help depends on how we do it.

For example, last time Qi Yue released the dog, Du Juan almost lost her baby, and there was even a possibility that both she and her unborn child would die.

At the crucial moment, Ye Zhao took the initiative to help.

This not only repaid Du Juan for saving Li Tian's life, but also brought the two families closer together.

The gratitude for saving someone from danger is the real deal.

It is only at times like these that you can see who is worth befriending.

Ye Zhao helped voluntarily and willingly, without setting any conditions.

The Yuan family personally experienced this kindness and naturally accepted the offer.

Sincerity is always a surefire way to win.

Of course, this applies to friends.

Offering kindness to an enemy is useless; it will only make it easier for them to stab you in the back.

Although an autumn rain brings a chill, it's still quite hot at midday, just after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Ye Zhao served watermelons to the grandfather and grandson, but they were all at room temperature.

Li Tian knew right from wrong; she wanted to eat something cold, but dared not risk it.

Compared to a stomachache, what is a little bit of oral craving?

Before they had finished eating the watermelon, Liu He and Liu Wei arrived.

Li Shengli inquired about Chu Xun's situation.

This morning, Liu He and Liu Wei took leave to go to the hospital. They couldn't take care of him all the time, so they had to go and check on him.

"Sir, Chu Xun has woken up, but he is seriously injured and will need to stay in the hospital for at least a month or two."

Li Shengli nodded.

"The organization will arrange for someone to take care of you, so you shouldn't go there for the time being."

"Yes."

Li Tian went back into the house, took out the film from the camera, and put it in the original film canister.

"Master Liu, could you please take this outside and rinse it for me? Thank you."

Li Tian wanted to build a darkroom, but she knew nothing about developing photographs.

Moreover, they are too young and their hand dexterity is not strong enough.

It's hard to get grandparents' support for something that isn't convincing.

Liu He readily accepted the task.

After the two Lius left, Li Tian found Lu Yuan's phone number.

I wonder if they will have a holiday during the National Day period.

On a whim, I dialed the number.

Coincidentally, Lu Yuan is on duty today.

I'm at the newspaper office right now.

"Uncle Lu, when are you free? I'd like to invite you to dinner."

Lu Yuan smiled inexplicably.

What are the Li family's circumstances? Would they be short of a meal?

Of course not.

Li Tian's words likely meant she wanted to invite him to dinner; there was no hidden meaning.

But inviting someone to dinner is definitely for a purpose.

"Little Li Tian, ​​your food isn't that delicious. Tell me, what do you need from me? Is there anything I can help you with?"

Li Tian chuckled a few times.

I enjoy interacting with intelligent people.

"Uncle Lu, your photography skills are so amazing, I'd like to learn a few tricks from you."

That's it?

But Li Tian is only a few years old. How could she learn photography from him?

"Are you on vacation?"

Li Tian quickly responded.

"Yes, I'm free, it depends on your availability."

"How about tomorrow morning? I'm off work."

"Okay, where shall we meet?"

When a child says they're treating someone, they can't just suggest a restaurant.

Naturally, we need to choose a suitable place for taking photos.

"Let's go to the Summer Palace. The scenery there is beautiful, and I can give you a demonstration there."

Li Tian had no objection to the location.

"Okay, okay, thank you Uncle Lu, see you tomorrow."

Lu Yuan added a sentence.

"9:00 AM, at the park's main entrance, see you there!"

Li Tian responded and confirmed the information.

"Okay, nine o'clock, at the main gate of the Summer Palace, see you there."

He hung up the phone after saying that.

Li Tian looked up and met Li Shengli's big face.

"Granddaughter, you made an appointment? Who is it?"

This can be considered acting first and informing later.

Li Tian grinned foolishly.

"Grandpa, Uncle Lu is a newspaper reporter. I've met him a few times, and I want to learn photography from him."

Li Shengli curled his lip.

This granddaughter's mind is never idle.

Learning photography?

That must be quite expensive!

I used up a whole roll of film while playing a game of chess today.

Ye Zhao immediately saw through Li Shengli's thoughts as he pursed his lips.

But don't expose it in front of the children.

"Tian Tian, ​​take your brother with you to school."

She supports any legitimate hobby.

You can learn anything for free!

There's no reason not to support a child who wants to learn.

With Ye Zhao making the decision, Li Shengli stopped saying anything discouraging.

Li Zilong was naturally willing to follow and learn.

Having many skills is never a bad thing.

"I'll prepare two bottles of wine for you. Remember to give them to Reporter Lu tomorrow."

Li Tian smiled and went over to hug Ye Zhao.

This is true, genuine support from elders.

Although she said she would treat everyone, how could Lu Yuan, an adult, let a child pay the bill?

Even if Liu He insisted on paying, a meal couldn't cover the tuition fees.

Sending two bottles of wine would be just right.

Besides, they only brought out the best wines.

Even if you have money, you might not be able to buy it.
