I started a senior citizen university after being unemployed, and I became the favorite of my uncles

Chapter 129 Xu Mian and Grandma Ying

Lin Qinglan, who was standing outside the door, listened to the conversation between the three of them. The more she listened, the angrier she became, yet also sad.

I just took a quick look and saw that every corner of the house showed the love that Xu Mian had poured into his home and this house.

The small one-bedroom apartment is decorated very warmly. Hanging on the wall at the entrance is a photo of a young girl and a white-haired old man. This should be Xu Mian and her grandmother who was driven back to her hometown.

In the photo, Xu Mian and her grandmother are hugging each other, with happiness overflowing in their eyes.

But now, the glass of the photo frame was smashed, and the photo was wrinkled, as if it was taken out often, and there were also graffiti by the naughty child and extremely insulting words written by his parents.

In the photo, there was a hole poked in Xu Mian's eye and a big cross was drawn on the old man's face with a marker.

They smiled happily, but some people couldn't stand seeing them being so happy.

During the five minutes when the door was opened, Lin Qinglan stared at the painting, trying to remember the appearance of Xu Mian and the old man. Her ears were filled with noise, but the grandparents and grandchildren in the photo were still peaceful and beautiful.

Thinking of what Xu's father said about the transfer of ownership of the house, Lin Qinglan confirmed one thing: Xu Mian was the owner of the house. The three of them were just intruders with blood ties.

"Xiao De, where is Xu Mian's body in this world?"

"Host, based on the results I found, Xu Mian is most likely wearing one."

Xiao De’s words made Lin Qinglan feel even colder. “Wearing” meant that even if she went to the police station to report her missing, the police wouldn’t be able to find anything.

But these people must be punished.

She believed that Xu Mian must have left a certificate for her grandmother, with whom she depended on each other for everything, which made Xu Mian certain that Lin Qinglan would definitely see her grandmother in that house.

But something unexpected happened. As long as we find Grandma Xu Mian, the truth about who the house belongs to will be revealed.

She decided to use the simplest method to find a needle in a haystack. She searched Xu Mian's name on the Internet, and soon a skinny old man holding a video looking for someone popped up.

The video seemed to be taken by someone else. Under the dim light, the old man looked helpless, his eyes filled with deep sorrow.

Lin Qinglan found the village where Grandma Xu Mian lived according to the address in the video.

It was already getting dark when she arrived. In order to improve efficiency, Lin Qinglan found Xiaotao, a young college student village official, with the help of the villagers.

"I heard that you are a friend of Grandma Ying's granddaughter Xu Mian. Do you have any clues about Xu Mian?" Xiao Tao looked at her expectantly, hoping to hear good news.

Lin Qinglan suddenly felt her throat dry, and said what she had prepared: "I am her classmate. I just found out that she was missing some time ago. This time I came here to see her grandmother for her."

Xiao Tao's eyes were filled with suspicion. "You came from the city. You should know that Xu Mian has a house in the city."

This statement was meant to test how much Lin Qinglan knew about the situation in Xu Mian's family.

"I've been there, and her house has been occupied by her father and stepmother." Lin Qinglan said truthfully.

"You have seen that family of three. Grandma Ying was driven out by them. The villagers don't like them."

"Xu Mian's father was a gambler and was in prison for a few years."

"Her stepmother is not easy to get along with. She was so outrageous that she asked Xu Mian, a junior who had just started working, for a red envelope of 6 yuan when they got married, otherwise she would not enter their house."

"Xu Mian is kindhearted and longs for family affection. If Grandma Ying hadn't stopped him, Xu Mian would have been stupid enough to take out loans to give them red envelopes."

"They later had a naughty child, and taught him since he was young that Xu Mian was trying to steal his family property."

Xiao Tao curled her lips, looked around to see if there was anyone around, and complained loudly, "They didn't even check if their family had any property. The three of them were lying on Xu Mian and sucking her blood."

Xiao Tao was a straightforward person. She told the story of Xu Mian and her grandmother like a bean, and cursed the family of three. Finally, she sighed:

"Xu Mian's life was so hard. Her mother died young, her father was a bad person, and she finally had the ability to live a good life with Grandma Ying, but she disappeared for no reason. It would have been better if she could have been luckier."

Lin Qinglan listened silently, feeling sad. She had no idea how Xu Mian's life was in the other dimension. She would help Grandma Ying drive away the family of three who occupied the house and let them receive the punishment they deserved. At the same time, she would take good care of Grandma so that Xu Mian could complete her mission with peace of mind and return home as soon as possible.

She came from an unfortunate family and was also raised by her grandmother.

She has come out of it and hopes that Xu Mian can get what he wants.

"Grandma Xu's house is easy to find. It's the one with the lights off."

Lin Qinglan followed the direction Xiaotao pointed and saw a dark house surrounded by lights.

With the help of flashlight, the two men walked into the brick house without a door.

"Grandma Ying, Sister Xiaomian's friends are here to see you." Xiaotao shouted loudly into the house.

The skinny old man leaned on a crutch and groped his way out of the house. Under the light of the flashlight in his hand, his dim eyes suddenly lit up. "You are Xiao Mian's friend."

Lin Qinglan met the old man's expectant gaze and nodded heavily.

The old man groped in the dark to turn on the light.

The sudden light brought tears to Lin Qinglan's eyes. She didn't know whether it was because of the stimulation or because she was touched by the scene before her.

Xiao Tao kept telling Grandma Ying, "Grandma, I told you, it doesn't cost much to turn on the light, what if you fall like this?"

Grandma Ying silently reached out to take the biscuit box on top of the solid wooden cabinet.

Xiao Tao whispered in Lin Qinglan's ear, "I think Grandma Ying may be a little out of her mind. She is always immersed in her own world and always mistakes me for Sister Xiaomian."

Grandma Ying took out a few well-packaged small breads from the biscuit box and stuffed them into Lin Qinglan's mouth. She looked at them lovingly and said, "Eat quickly. You must have worked hard to come to see me so late. Have you eaten yet? I'll make you some noodles."

Lin Qinglan hurriedly waved her hand to refuse, pulled Grandma Ying to sit down, and said seriously: "Grandma, I came here this time to ask you a few questions."

Grandma Ying was twirling her fingers helplessly, while Xiaotao was trying to comfort her.

According to Grandma Ying, Xu Mian disappeared suddenly, and she reported the case to the police. Because her son insisted on holding a funeral for Xu Mian, Grandma Ying, who firmly believed that her granddaughter was still alive, had a big quarrel with them. They no longer hid and forcibly sent Grandma Ying back to her hometown.

Grandma Ying was not interested in taking back the house; she just wanted to know where Xu Mian had gone.

But when she heard Lin Qinglan say that the house was saved by Xu Mian after years of hard work, she definitely didn't want to see the house being ruined in the hands of this family of three.

Grandma Ying was persuaded and decided to sue her son's family and kick them out.

Lin Qinglan asked about the key property certificate, "It's the red book, it's very important."

"She asked me to keep this cotton before, luckily I took it with me when I went back to my hometown." Grandma Ying couldn't read, but she knew these documents were very important, so she wrapped them all up in cloth and put them in a box. "I was there when she applied for this."

Xiaotao and Lin Qinglan were shocked when they opened the property deed. The house was owned by Grandma Ying.

The lawsuit will be easier to win.

Xu Mian probably had anticipated what would happen today, and had prepared everything for Grandma Ying.

Things are about to end, and the wicked will be punished. The night is over and the morning is coming.

During these busy days for Lin Qinglan, the uncles and aunts at the senior citizens' university prepared a surprise for her.
