Qian Hong now only hopes that the old lady is not too difficult to serve and too picky, so there is still a chance for himself and the old house.

The next morning, after sending Zhu Ying away, Qian Hong went to the vegetable market, bought a push of ingredients piecemeal, and then rushed to the old house, while listening to the siren that would sound from time to time, while beginning to prepare in advance, after Zhang Meng opened the door for him, people rushed to the nursing home, and someone must accompany him to pick up the old lady out.

In order to adapt to the sweetness of Shanghainese eating, Qian Hong prepared four dishes of fish-flavored shredded pork, pot-wrapped meat, pine nut corn and ground three fresh dishes, and also prepared dumplings with fennel filling, hoping that the old lady would not hate this taste.

Busy alone in the small kitchen, Qian Hong took out twelve points of concentration, and when he was ready, it was almost half past eleven, Zhang Meng used a wheelchair to push an old lady with snow-white hair and an expressionless face into the yard.

Qian Hong stood at the door, looking at the old lady carefully, judging from the eyebrows and facial features, this must have been a great beauty in her youth, but the years have now left countless wrinkles on her face, she looks about 6-70 years old, but her eyes are not cloudy at all.

Of course, at this moment, the old lady was also looking at Qian Hong, and then Zhang Meng walked between the two and introduced the old lady first: "Grandma Wang, this is Qian Hong, my little leader, that is, the person who invited you to dinner at noon today." ”

"Such a young boss, it's really rare!" the old lady spoke, her voice was very good, and she gave people a very gentle feeling like Zhu Ying.

"Hello Grandma Wang, I'm Qian Hong, I took the liberty to make a few hometown dishes, I hope you can like it. ”

"Don't worry, I have to dress up to eat!"

"It's okay, you can dress up slowly, Zhang Meng, you send Grandma Wang back to the room first, and try to cooperate if you have any needs. ”

"Okay. ”

Zhang Meng pushed the wheelchair onto the porch as he spoke, and Qian Hong flashed to the side with a smile, watched the old lady enter the master bedroom on the first floor, and asked Zhang Meng to close the door......

It took 40 minutes, and when Zhang Meng pushed the old lady out again, the clothes on the old lady's body had all changed, from a simple gray blouse to a black cheongsam, and there was an elegant beaded flower on the left chest, which brought out the old lady's temperament.

It seems that this Grandma Wang is very nostalgic for the past time!

Quietly affirming this in his heart, Qian Hong leaned over very considerately and helped move the chair at the dining table so that the old lady's wheelchair could enter that position.

"Grandma Wang, can I serve the food?"

"Come on, kid!"

Although he was instructed by the old lady, Qian Hong didn't see any dissatisfaction, he immediately returned to the kitchen, and in the blink of an eye, he brought out all four dishes, and then the three of them sat down in priority and were about to start the meal.

"Little leader, Sister Ying hasn't come back yet, do you want to wait for her for a while?"

"No need, today is mainly to entertain Grandma Wang, besides, isn't it good for us to wait while eating?" Qian Hong was talking to Zhang Mengzheng, and the old lady asked curiously, "Who is Sister Ying in your mouth?"

"It's my sister, and this time she came to Shanghai with me, but she's taking classes at the university, so she won't be back until a while. Qian Hong explained briefly, and the old lady nodded slightly.

"Let's not drink the wine, Grandma Wang, try this dish quickly, I don't know if you can get used to the salty and light of the north." ”

"It's okay, I also know a few masters in the Northeast, and some of the dishes they cook are quite good. ”

"Hehehe, my technique must not be compared with the master of the hotel. ”

"No, I think it's pretty good, I'll try this crispy meat first." ”

Unexpectedly, the old lady's teeth were not bad, so she first picked up a piece of pot wrapped meat, sent it to her mouth, and then chewed it slowly a few times, and finally showed a satisfied look: "It's really good, at least with the skill of Master Beifeng Lou Sancheng, it's rare!"

"Grandma Wang, try this pine nut corn again, I think the sweet dish should be more in line with your taste." ”

"Okay, then I'll try it. ”

......

Next, the three of them ate in a relaxed atmosphere, no one mentioned the matter of the old house during the banquet, everyone talked around these dishes, or it was to talk about the differences between the north and the south, if you don't know, you will definitely misunderstand after watching this scene, this is a close-knit family.

About ten minutes later, the chopsticks put down by the old lady indicated that she had eaten, so Qian Hong held the wine glass and quietly gave Zhang Meng a look, and then Zhang Meng asked with a smile: "Grandma Wang, don't you want to see my little leader? Now that you've met, shouldn't we talk?"

"I have a good impression of this child, but unfortunately I can't sell this house to you. However, after eating and drinking, the old lady said that she would turn her face, and one sentence blocked all possibilities, which made Qian Hong and Zhang Meng feel very frustrated.

"Grandma Wang, if it's a matter of price, then let's discuss. Zhang Meng was unwilling to fail and asked again.

"Money is not important, the key is people, you are not the people in my mind, I will not entrust this house to you no matter how much money I pay!"

"Then what kind of person do you want, Grandma Wang?"

"Why can't you be a little girl, it's hard to say this, I look at it, and my heart tells me that it's not okay. ”

"Grandma Wang, then we ......"

Zhang Meng still wanted to fight for it, but Qian Hong waved his hand slightly, and after stopping her from talking, he asked on the side: "Grandma Wang, can we rent this house if we want?"

"It's okay to rent, 120 yuan a month, pay once a month, if I ask you to move out, then you must leave!" The old lady is not ambiguous about this, but she wants to pay the house money once a month, which doesn't seem to be particularly greedy for money, is it really the same as she said, she is really just looking for a suitable person?

Qian Hong couldn't be sure for the time being, but just when he was at a loss, the electric bell at the courtyard gate suddenly rang, Zhang Meng immediately went out to open the door, and in the blink of an eye, Zhu Ying walked in while looking around and puzzled, who knew that as soon as the old lady saw Zhu Ying's face, the whole person became nervous, and her eyes widened.
