"Your grandson in the same year?"

"You mean......" opened his eyes wide inexplicably, Gu Shengge looked at Zheng Hengzhao with dark eyes,

"Wasn't the old man's grandson with him at the time?"

Nodding silently, Zheng Hengzhao took a sip of the black tea on the table. Fingers stroked the relief on the wall of the cup, he lowered his eyes and spoke,

"For some reason, his grandson can't live with him...... Because I miss him so much, I transferred all the tolerance and love I wanted to give to that person to me. ”

Glancing at Gu Shengge inexplicably, Zheng Hengzhao propped up his chin with crossed fingers, and slowly clenched it, "Now that I think about it, he will treat me differently, mostly because he didn't expect me to really restore that pot of orchids." Although it took me a whole year. ”

"Restoration?" his eyes widened in surprise, Gu Shengge raised his eyebrows and looked over, "It took you a year to find a pot of the same?"

"No," the corners of his lips were raised nostalgically, and Zheng Hengzhao raised his eyes with a slight smile, "It's the pot that was dying before that has been re-raised." ”

Capturing Gu Shengge's increasingly surprised look, the smile in Zheng Hengzhao's eyes deepened, "After smashing the flower pot, because I was too guilty at the time, I promised him that I would return the same pot to him within a year." At that time, he probably just took my words as a child's rhetoric. ”

"Hmm, this is really ......" blinking with interest, Gu Shengge looked at Zheng Hengzhao expectantly like listening to a story, "Then how did you do it later?"

Shrugging his shoulders with a chuckle, Zheng Hengzhao smiled a little helplessly, "I took the flowers home and consulted a lot of books. Then I found out that it was actually a very valuable variety, and it was even rarer in the UK. I knew it would be very difficult to find another pot, so I had to find a way to bring it back to life. ”

A nostalgic smile slipped over his eyes, and Zheng Hengzhao adjusted his sitting posture casually, "It was really difficult at first, I have never raised flowers, and I don't know much about this knowledge." Later, thanks to those—"

Tapping to the bookcase next to him with his finger, Zheng Hengzhao looked at one of the rows with a smile, "For about a year or so, I have been studying flowers and plants every day. In order to do better, I also asked the flower farmer who had been taking care of my family's garden - oh, at first he didn't dare to teach me this, always afraid that my father would blame him. But in fact, my parents were very supportive of me at the time. They say that since you have damaged it, you have to fix it yourself. ”

"It can be seen that you have a pair of very good parents," sighed with some envy, thinking of the mother downstairs with a warm smile, Gu Shengge's eyes became softer and softer, "I think your father must also be a gentle person." ”

"Gentleness, no, I don't think it......" Waving his hand with a smile, Zheng Hengzhao showed a smile on his face, "He is very strict, sometimes even a little naïve, but he has always been wise when it comes to principles. ”

As if remembering something, Zheng Hengzhao recalled to Gu Shengge with a smile,

"Speaking of which, the flower pot I broke at that time was made by a master craftsman in China. When my dad found out, he took me back to China and found the craftsman with me. I begged him for a long time before he agreed to make me an identical porcelain basin. ”

The smile on his lips gradually faded, Zheng Hengzhao raised his eyes, and glanced at Gu Shengge as if inadvertently,

"When I returned the pot to the old man, he said he had never seen a child like me. Then we got acquainted with each other, and slowly, he would tell me a lot about his grandson. ”

The color of his eyes became deeper and deeper, and he unconsciously clenched the cup between his fingers, and Zheng Hengzhao's voice gradually became a little low.

"At that time, he was always imagining, imagining whether that child was as tall as me, whether he was growing up as healthy as me. He said he had a lot to be sorry for his grandson. If he could see him again one day, he hoped that the child would be willing to forgive him......"

“…… That kid was so happy. With a low sigh, the curvature of Gu Shengge's lips was a little bitter, "There is such a good grandfather, and I miss him abroad......"

It's not rejection, it's not avoidance. It's the feelings that can still be held in the bottom of my heart even if I am in a foreign country.

Trying to ignore the inexplicable sourness in his heart, Gu Shengge looked at Zheng Hengzhao, who was suddenly silent,

"And now, has he seen his grandson?"

Slowly lower the cup. Zheng Hengzhao looked at Gu Shengge deeply.

The fingers hidden under the table sank deep into the palm of his hand, Zheng Hengzhao pulled the corners of his mouth, only to feel an inexplicable burning heat in his throat, burning his nerves all the way.

Suddenly clenched his fists, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked straight at Gu Shengge.

"Shengge, next, listen to me. ”

As if he had faintly decided something, Zheng Hengzhao looked at Gu Shengge, who was a little surprised, and slowly spoke,

"Actually, I ......"

"Bang, bang, bang. ”

A sudden knock on the door interrupted Zheng Hengzhao's words, and someone suddenly pushed the door open and walked in. Gu Shengge stood up in a hurry, and when he saw Mother Zheng holding the fruit plate with a smile at the door, he hurriedly walked over and took the fruit plate.

"Auntie, it's hard work. I'll take care of this. ”

"Ah, our Xiaosheng is really a good child...... "Turning her head sideways and smiling, Mother Zheng patted Gu Shengge's shoulder with a smile, and glanced at her eldest son who was sitting on the spot with an inexplicable expression, "Is it someone else's child...... Where are they like those two pieces of wood in my house, one race and the other are blind!"

Ignoring Zheng's mother's ridicule, Zheng Hengzhao's eyes swept over his smiling mother with a complicated look, and then looked at Gu Shengge, who was holding fruit and smiling softly. After a long time, he silently withdrew his gaze and looked at Zheng Hengxu, who was also thoughtful outside the door.

"Xiao Sheng, Auntie just baked cakes and biscuits, do you want to come down and taste them?" Mother Zheng in front of her was still smiling and holding Gu Shengge's hand back and forth, and the inexplicable love in the corners of her eyes was almost overflowing, "I also recorded a lot of shows that you participated in before...... Oh, yes, come with me, there's something I have to show you......"

Seeing that Gu Shengge was about to be dragged out of the room by Zheng's mother, Zheng Hengzhao just wanted to open his mouth to stop him, but when he raised his eyes to look over, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the soft and satisfied smile on the man's face. After an inexplicable pause for a second, Zheng Hengzhao silently withdrew his hand. He turned his face sideways to look at the young man outside the door, clutching his hair and looking thoughtful.

"Hengxu," he said in a deep voice, with a rare harshness in his tone, "you come in, I have something to ask you." ”

"Huh?" The young man who was immersed in thought didn't react for a moment, and pointed to his face with his mouth open, "Me?"

"That's right. Sitting back in place, Zheng Hengzhao motioned to the young man to close the door. Taking a casual sip of the cold tea, Zheng Hengzhao raised his eyes to look at the somewhat cramped young man opposite-

"Tell me, how long have you and Mom been standing outside the door?"

When Zheng Xian returned home, he was surprised not to see his wife who came forward to greet him.

There are still unfinished cakes on the kitchen counter, and Aunt Pei, who is always busy in the restaurant, is nowhere to be seen. Zheng Xian turned around, frowned and opened the shoe cabinet in the hallway, and pouted when he saw the extra pairs of shoes.

It looks like the two stinky boys are back......

After slowly changing his shoes, Jung Hyun stepped on his slippers and walked upstairs to the master bedroom. Zheng's mother's silver-belllike laughter came from afar in the guest room, and Zheng Xian raised his eyebrows in confusion and turned to walk towards the long-vacant guest room.

It's strange that those two stinky boys with eyes higher than the sky would bring guests back......

walked outside the door and knocked symbolically, and after getting his wife's approval, Zheng Xian pushed the door open with a little curiosity-

Pei...... Pei Ya?!

Almost out of a gaffe, Zheng Xian looked at the young man in front of him who was smiling and introducing himself to him, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a while.

Zheng's mother on the side tugged on his cuffs hard, and Zheng Xian suddenly came back to his senses. Facing the pair of eyes that seemed to be familiar in a trance, Zheng Xian smiled quietly,

"I'm Hengzhao's father, don't be restrained, just call me Uncle Zheng. ”

"Really...... Why did you come back suddenly," Zheng's mother, who was chatting happily, looked at her husband with dissatisfaction, and complained with some disgust, "I was chatting with Xiaosheng about interesting things in college, and as soon as you came in, the atmosphere just now was gone!"

Helplessly, he twitched the corner of his forehead, Zheng Xian pulled off the tie on his chest, "You're old, what kind of atmosphere are you pursuing when chatting with other young men......" Looking at Gu Shengge on the side with some concern, Zheng Xian asked kindly, "Child, the 'Sheng' in your name, but the 'Sheng' in 'Sheng'?"

"Yes, it's the 'Sheng'. Smiling and nodding, Gu Shengge bent the corners of his eyes with some nostalgia, "I heard that my mother insisted on naming it like this, my father was still a little hesitant, but later agreed to my mother's suggestion." ”

"Ah, that's ......" looked at his wife thoughtfully for a moment, Zheng Xian smiled and patted Gu Shengge's shoulder,

"Son, since you are a friend of Hengzhao, then to me and your aunt, you are no different from our own children. I like you very much, so let's stay at home for a few more days. By the way, how about this Sunday? If you want, we can go around as a family. Of course, you young people probably don't want to ...... with us."

"No, I would very much do. Somewhat eagerly taking Zheng Xian's words, Gu Shengge raised his eyes and looked over. Capturing the warmth in Zheng Xian's eyes, Gu Shengge bent his eyes, and the warmth of ironing flowed through his heart, "...... I'm really looking forward to that trip, you said. ”

"Hahaha, that's great," he touched the top of Gu Shengge's hair with a smile, and Zheng Xian bent the corners of his eyes happily, "Then it's decided, you go and call those two stinky boys, tell them to free up all the time for me, this Sunday, let's go camping together as a family!"

The smile in the corner of his eyes gradually faded after Gu Shengge left, and Zheng Xian looked at his wife who had secretly wiped away her tears, and sighed heavily.

Putting his arm around his wife's shoulders, Zheng Xian gently wiped away his tears for his wife, "I know you're sad...... But you see, her child is so sensible now, and we should be happy for her......"

Gently patting his wife's shoulder, Jung Hyun sighed silently,

"What she didn't have time to do, let's make it up to the kid......"
