Chapter 325: Hundred Years Old

The giant sea turtle just happened to open its eyes at this time, saw the people around it, and closed its eyes again.

[Look, look, for the sake of that girl, I'll let you see enough. Humans are really unsophisticated. There are many giant sea turtles in my family.]

When the Empress Dowager saw the giant sea turtle open its eyes, she was immediately very excited, "Li'er, look, this is a living giant sea turtle, a real giant sea turtle. It's too big, I guess even an adult can't hold it. I don't know how old it is."

Seeing that the Imperial Grandmother was dancing with joy like a child, Xiao Xuanli said softly, "She must be at least a hundred years old."

The Empress Dowager was shocked. "Hundreds of years old? Then it's older than me."

Song Chuman glanced at the patterns on the tortoise shell and said, "Madam, each pattern on this tortoise represents one year of age. Look, there are hundreds of them, so it must be hundreds of years old."

The Empress Dowager was stunned, and then she carefully counted the patterns and nodded, "There are indeed hundreds of them. You really know a lot, girl."

Song Chuman smiled and said, "Thanks to my father for teaching me to read. I read that in the book."

Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager became even more convinced that Song Hexiu's family were experts.

She was really curious about the giant turtle, so she didn't say much and just stood there quietly watching the turtle.

Xiao Xuanli looked at Song Hexiu and said, "Uncle Song, I'm sorry, my grandmother likes this turtle, so she wants to take a closer look at it."

Song Hexiu smiled and said, "Just watch, it's okay. There's hot tea here. If you feel tired, you can take a rest."

Xiao Xuanli: "Thank you."

The Empress Dowager also expressed her gratitude: "Thank you very much."

Song Chuman pulled Xiao Xuanli aside and said, "Brother Li, you said this is your grandmother, and she keeps saying she's going to die?"

Xiao Xuanli nodded: "Yes."

Song Chuman sighed: "Your grandmother is so young. If you didn't say she was your grandmother, outsiders would really think she was your mother." The Empress Dowager next to her was immediately happy when she heard this.

This child really knows how to talk.

Xiao Xuanli: "Grandma is indeed young, and she knows how to take care of her face."

Song Chuman asked casually: "What about your mother?"

Xiao Xuanli's eyes dimmed a little, and he smiled bitterly: "My mother is the opposite of my grandmother. She is only in her twenties, but she looks like she is in her forties or fifties."

That must be a disease, right?
Song Chuman blamed herself: "Brother Li, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned your sad story."

Xiao Xuanli suddenly laughed, "You are really good at observing people's expressions."

Song Chuman said proudly: "That's right, my family all have this kind of foresight."

Xiao Xuanli also smiled, and suddenly saw a lot of people in the open space in the distance, and asked: "Have you started construction on your house?"

Song Chuman: “Yeah.”

Xiao Xuanli had excellent eyesight. Even from here, he could see Li Cuicui and her grandchildren in the open space. He walked a few steps forward and raised his eyebrows and asked, "What are those three people doing?"

Song Chuman said: "My grandmother sat on the ground with her two beloved grandchildren, saying that if my family did not give her 100 taels of silver, she would refuse to eat or drink, and let my family bear the blame for her starvation and be condemned by everyone."

Xiao Xuanli: "She really is capable of doing this. She doesn't even care about her reputation anymore."

Song Chuman: "Yes, her sons and grandsons have been spoiled by her. They only know how to pick up ready-made things. Song Chujin and Song Chuyin have such a grandmother. Their lives are ruined."
