Chapter 304: Does Grandpa Want to See Me?
After Xiaoxiao returned to China, he contacted the leaders of the original army as soon as possible, explained the situation, and could stay in Cloud City for two days to rest.
Thinking of her best friend who she hadn't seen for a long time, Xiaoxiao didn't sleep much all night when she was excited. The next day, I got up early in the morning, came back from the morning exercise, and couldn't wait to give Miss Ji a good morning greeting.
Ji Manrou was probably still dreaming of Zhou Gong, and she didn't look at the caller ID, and her sleepy voice was still a little displeased: "Who...... Disturbing dreams so early. ”
"Aren't you going to school this morning?"
Before Ji Manrou could react, she sneered: "You're a liar, right? You come to cheat without asking for clear information? Auntie, grandma, I've graduated, okay!" After speaking, without waiting for the other side to respond, he hung up the phone neatly.
Graduate?
Xiaoxiao listened to the busy sound in the microphone and was stunned.
Fingers pinched, yes - four years of college, didn't she finish it? she forgot it......
But shouldn't you go to work after graduation? Even if you are a daughter, you can't squander your good time like this, right?
The phone was dialed again, and this time she didn't speak, and the other end preemptively attacked: "Why are you persevering, a liar? Let me tell you, my family is indeed very rich, but I am poor to death, don't bother me!"
"Why are you poor?" Xiaoxiao asked suspiciously, "Are you so lazy and swept away?"
Ji Manrou froze, the voice ......
The quilt moved, and she took her phone away and looked at the number displayed on the screen.
To be precise, what was displayed on the screen was not the number, but the label she saved two years ago - He Shao's mansion.
He Shao's mansion?!
Ji Manrou jumped out of the quilt, pinching her mobile phone in ecstasy and shock, "An Xiaoxiao ?!?!"
Xiaoxiao took the microphone away, and the smile on her face widened, "Miss Ji, I thought you were old and forgetful, and I don't remember the little girl——"
"Ahhh
The noisy and high-pitched voice made Xiaoxiao's ears hurt, and the microphone was pushed away until she finished venting there, and she took a breath and replied: "Can you not be so excited? Ask so many questions, which one do you want me to answer? I just came back last night, there are too many things to explain, and I will talk to you in detail when we meet." ”
"Okay, okay! I'll get up right now and go find you?"
Miss Ji's action faction, of course, is mainly because she hasn't seen her for two years and is too excited, Xiaoxiao heard her squirming voice, and hurriedly stopped: "I have to visit Old Man He in the morning, wait for noon, let's eat together." ”
"What about the old man?" Ji Manrou sneered, "He beat the mandarin ducks, so that you have a lover who can't stay together, and you still visit him!"
"This is the minimum etiquette, not to mention that I am with him again now, so it is reasonable to look at the old man. "Xiaoxiao has always been reasonable, how could he deal with an elder who is too old.
"Okay, how can I contact you?"
"Well, I'll find a way to contact you later. ”
"Good. ”
After ending the call with Ji Manrou, Aunt Zhang had already prepared a hearty breakfast.
Xiaoxiao ate quickly, thinking about the current recuperation residence of Old Man He, who had inquired with Fu Bo the night before, so he dressed up and prepared to go out.
Aunt Zhang hurriedly came out of the kitchen, stopped her, and handed over a mobile phone.
"I thought it would be more convenient for you to go out and have a mobile phone, so take it and charge it. ”
Xiaoxiao was overjoyed, took the mobile phone and hugged Aunt Zhang, "Auntie, you are really a good aunt!
"Let's go and have fun with our friends. ”
"Thank you, Aunt Zhang!"
When he arrived at the sanatorium, Xiaoxiao registered and easily found the old man's villa. Coincidentally, He Yuling also happened to come here with her child.
When they met each other, He Yuling greeted them with a smile: "Come and see grandpa?"
Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed, and she didn't know how to put the gift in her hand, "Well, I just don't know...... Grandpa would like to see me. ”
"Grandpa doesn't have any opinion of you, and even he has always praised you, what happened in the first two years...... It was also from the overall situation at that time, he didn't want the royal monarch to be affected by those negative news, and he didn't want the reputation of the He family to be damaged-" He Yuling explained gently, and gently stroked his son's head with one hand, "This, I hope you don't blame grandpa." ”
Xiaoxiao nodded and smiled tolerantly: "Sister, I understand." ”
"It's all here......" The two were still chatting, and on the steps outside the living room, an old and deep voice was raised.
Turning his head, the old man staggered to the courtyard step by step with a cane and reading glasses.
Two years have passed, and there may not be any obvious marks on a young man's face, but on the body of an old man in his eighties, a deep mark has been marked.
Grandpa is a little older, and even his straight spine is a lot stiffer.
Xiaoxiao immediately turned around, smiled generously, and took the initiative to greet: "Grandpa, long time no see, I'm coming to see you." ”
The old man glanced at her and snorted faintly: "You are capable! If you go to such a far place, you can still meet the imperial monarch." ”
Xiaoxiao didn't know whether this was praise or disparagement, so he only smiled and didn't speak.
The old man's eyes flickered and fell on his granddaughter and the little boy beside her.
He has read countless people in his life, and the old man's vision is naturally extraordinary, and the old man looked at the little boy with a keen eye, his face sank, and even the gray beard on the side of his mouth couldn't help but tighten.
Obviously, at a glance, it is clear that this child is not easy to educate.
Shen Tuxuan stood there motionless, the newborn calf was not afraid of a tiger, and looked into the eyes of the old man.
He Yuling was uneasy in her heart, secretly plucked up her courage, and gently patted her son's shoulder before General He spoke, urging: "Xuan'er, call Grandpa quickly." ”
Shen Tuxuan looked at General He, paused, and simply refused: "I don't call! I don't know him!"
"Xuan'er!" He Yuling was frightened, hurriedly pulled her son around, squatted down with a serious expression and whispered to him, "Have you forgotten what your mother told you in the morning? He is your mother's grandfather, your grandfather! You can't be so rude, understand?"
Shen Tuxuan stared at his mother stubbornly, and glanced at Xiaoxiao, who was standing silent, "I know, all of them are in a gang, they all want their father to die! Mom, why are we here? They don't like me, I don't like them, I don't like this place, I want to go back! I want to go back!"
General He looked at this scene silently and solemnly, not knowing what to say, the child is innocent, he understands. But this child is obviously crooked, and it is likely that no matter how hard he tries in the future, how can he accept him as a gateway based on orthodox and rigorous family style?
"Yu Ling, if he refuses to call, forget it, just sit down and talk. The old man is so old that he doesn't have to worry about a child of a few years old, and with a faint greeting, he sat down on the Taishi chair under a tree.
In early summer, in the early morning, the courtyard is breezy and sunny, and under the grape trellis made of a few vines, there are chessboards and wooden benches. On the grape trellis, bunches of green grapes sway slightly in the wind, and the time is quiet and peaceful. But such a pleasant and beautiful scenery made the atmosphere stiff because of such an awkward and unpleasant meeting.
Shinoxiao didn't speak and didn't know what to say. Shen Tuxuan was too prejudiced against her, and it was safest for her to be silent at this time to reduce her sense of existence. However, on the old man's side, she can't pretend to be dumb.
She waited for a long time, and when she saw that the old man touched the small teapot next to the Taishi's chair and lifted it, as if there was no water, she immediately stepped forward: "Grandpa, I'll help you pour tea!"
Before the old man could express his position, she had already walked away with a small purple clay pot, and there were only three grandchildren in the courtyard for a while.
There were no outsiders, General He sighed, looked at his granddaughter and the little boy, and said lightly: "Yu Ling, don't say that my old man is not emotional, this kid ...... I'm afraid it's an innate backbone, no matter how much effort you put in, you may not be able to lead him back to the right path, I think you can throw it to the army to sharpen it, maybe there will be salvation. ”
"Throw away the troops?" He Yuling subconsciously frowned, lowered his eyes and looked at his son, hesitating, "Grandpa, he just returned to China, and he is not familiar with life, so it's better to stay by my side." In the kind of place in the army, the rules are too strict, and he is just a child......"
The old man didn't wait for her to finish, and shook his head in disappointment: "How defeated a loving mother is, not to mention that this child is about to be abolished, you are not ruthless, do you want him to inherit that person's mantle in the future?"
He Yuling was silent and didn't dare to say anything more.
Xiaoxiao came out with a purple clay pot and put it in the old man's hand, "Grandpa, your tea." ”
General He looked back at Xiaoxiao, saw that her hands were still bandaged, and asked, "How is the recovery from the hand injury?"
Although the attitude is cold and indifferent, but it is also caring, Xiaoxiao is happy, looks at his hand and says, "It's okay, it will be fine soon." ”
The old man didn't speak again, and Xiaoxiao couldn't speak, seeing He Yuling's eyebrows and a worried look, he understood that the three grandchildren must have said something when she went in, and her sister was unhappy.
The old man put down the purple clay pot, got up and walked to the chessboard under the grape trellis, fiddled with himself, and said softly and lightly: "Just come and see me, go back." ”
Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, He Yuling didn't speak, and she didn't speak well.
In the middle of the night, a voice came from the courtyard: "That...... Grandpa, I'll take Xuan'er away first. ”
"Hmm. The old man answered, and said casually, "Since you are back, you want to be the descendant of my He family, and I will change my surname first." ”
