Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?

Chapter 501 Greed is forbidden



"Do you know what you're saying?"

Lin Jianming and his wife were speechless.

Shen Siyuan and Ruan Hongzhuang haven't even gotten married yet, at most it's just a breakup.

"Let's not speak prematurely, Xiao Shen and your Sister Ruan are getting along well." Song Qingwei pulled her over and held her in her arms.

Duoduo looked up at her mother.

"They didn't come back together today, only Brother came back alone."

"Ruan Miss probably had something to do, and your Brother Shen came back first, how can you just say they divorced? You can't say things like that carelessly."

"Is that so? I thought Sister Ruan stopped playing with Brother." Duoduo tilted her little head, full of confusion.

"Even if they aren't playing together, you can't say they're divorced. Do you say you and Dou Dou are divorced just because you're not playing together? Also, your Brother Shen and Sister Ruan haven't even gotten married yet." Song Qingwei explained patiently.

"That's true." Duoduo showed a look of sudden understanding.

"What a little silly." Song Qingwei affectionately touched her little face.

Lin Jianming watched with a chuckle, seemingly having forgotten about the recent troubles.

Divorce is just a divorce, it's not the end of the world; maybe he could bring his grandson Lin Wentao over to live with them.

"Is it because you heard your mom and I talking about your brother getting divorced that made you think your Brother Shen is also getting divorced?" Lin Jianming asked with a smile.

Duoduo suddenly brought up divorce, it must have something to do with us mentioning it every day recently.

Duoduo nodded, "Yes, Brother even called me a little silly."

"Oh, by the way, Brother asked me to call you for dinner, he has something to tell you." Duoduo suddenly remembered Shen Siyuan's message.

"Looking for us?" Lin Jianming and his wife exchanged glances, both surprised.

"What is it about, do you know?" Song Qingwei asked Duoduo.

"How would she know?"

"Hmph, of course I know." Duoduo huffed.

"Oh, so what's Brother looking for us for?"

"To talk about something." Duoduo declared confidently.

Lin Jianming: ...

Song Qingwei: ...

Seeing they couldn't get an answer from Duoduo, Song Qingwei expressed some concern to Lin Jianming, "I wonder what it's about, whether good or bad, we're too old for this."

Lin Jianming reassured her, "It shouldn't be anything big, otherwise he wouldn't have sent Duoduo to tell us."

"You're right, since we're going for dinner, we shouldn't go empty-handed."

"What about taking a bottle of wine?" Song Qingwei suggested.

"Sounds good." Lin Jianming thought it was a good idea.

"Let's take two bottles of red wine, Ruan Ruan and Taozi should be home too tonight."

"Got it, luckily Li Bo brought a few bottles recently, otherwise today would be troublesome."

Duoduo followed closely behind her parents, like a little tail.

When Lin Jianming opened the cabinet to get the wine, he saw her peering inside, and a thought struck him, so he asked, "Did you mention divorce to your Brother Shen too?"

Duoduo nodded honestly.

The couple exchanged a glance and had a faint guess about why Shen Siyuan was looking for them.

"Ah."

Lin Jianming sighed, he hadn't wanted to say it, but now he had no choice.

"If Xiao Shen brought it up first, it might be a good thing." Song Qingwei said optimistically.

"Let's hope so."

Lin Jianming said this, but he still felt uncertain.

That mysterious elixir, one pill could rejuvenate someone by decades, what if you took more? Calling it a Divine Pill wouldn't be an exaggeration.

Its value is immeasurable, and if word got out, who knows how many would covet it.

Like Dou Dou and Duoduo who are both Shen Siyuan's Guardian Children, but their family didn't receive even one; before, Tao Guangsha and his wife hinted several times, but they were brushed off each time.

However, Shen Siyuan gave three to their family unexpectedly, extremely generous and kind; if they asked for more, it would show greed.

You know this would cause Shen Siyuan to have reservations, and Lin Jianming absolutely didn't want that.

So tonight, even if Shen Siyuan brings it up, Lin Jianming decided he would refuse, otherwise things could get complicated.

With this thought, Lin Jianming had made up his mind.

He turned to Song Qingwei and said, "If Xiao Shen brings it up, we cannot accept it, if Li Bo divorces over it, it just means their relationship lacks trust, we can't blame anyone else."

Upon hearing this, Song Qingwei paused, feeling a bit tender-hearted.

"Is this... really okay? Poor Taotao."

That ended with just a long sigh.

"There's nothing wrong with it, without this chance before, didn't we live well enough? How come now with this big opportunity, life gets worse instead?" Lin Jianming said angrily.

So his tone was a bit sharp.

At this moment, Duoduo quietly stood in front of Song Qingwei, shielding her, and glared at Lin Jianming.

"You should talk nicely to Mom, that's very rude, you know."

Lin Jianming and Song Qingwei found this both amusing and comforting.

"Daddy was wrong, Daddy's attitude was bad." Lin Jianming reached out and patted Duoduo's little head.

Then said, "Let's go, don't let Xiao Shen wait too long."

So the couple each held one of Duoduo's hands and left.

Just as they stepped out, they saw Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi coming out of the elevator with big bags.

"Uncle Lin, Aunt Song, are you heading out?"

Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi greeted with a smile.

"No, we're just heading to your place." Lin Jianming said cheerfully.

"My place?" Ruan Hongzhuang was momentarily stunned but quickly realized.

Then she smiled.

"Welcome, welcome, Uncle Lin and Aunt Song haven't been to our place for a while."

Ruan Hongzhuang went to open the door, but then felt a tug on her clothes, and when she looked down, she found Duoduo looking up at her.

"What is it?" Ruan Hongzhuang asked, surprised.

"You didn't say hi to me." Duoduo replied, then turned her gaze to Taozi as well.

Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi burst into laughter.

They saw her so many times a day, swirling under their noses all the time, was there a need for greetings?

But seeing her so cute, the two ladies still greeted her.

Duoduo solemnly nodded, indicating she was also glad to see them.

"I'm back."

Ruan Hongzhuang opened the door and went in first, Taozi followed, and then Lin Jianming and his wife entered with Duoduo.

"Sorry to bother you." Lin Jianming said.

Tang Tang came running in first, surprised to see so many people suddenly in the house.

Then noticed the new hairstyles of Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi.

Tang Tang scratched her mushroom-like hair, looking at the two of them.

"How is it, looks nice?" Taozi pointed at her own hair and asked with a smile.

"Octopus." Tang Tang replied.

Taozi: ...

Ruan Hongzhuang burst out laughing on the side.

Taozi always had long straight black hair, but now she'd had it styled in soft curls, and Tang Tang calling her an octopus wasn't far off.

At this moment, Shen Siyuan came up to them.

Upon seeing him, Lin Jianming hastily stepped up.

"Sorry to intrude, I brought two bottles of red wine, should we have a little drink tonight?" Lin Jianming asked cheerfully.

Shen Siyuan glanced at the bag in his hand and nodded with a smile.

"More feasting and drinking, everyone's going to turn into chubby balls."

Dou Dou muttered on the side, clearly expressing sour grapes for not getting to eat.
