Chapter 272: Superfluous Compassion
Ji Huaifeng heard the shouts of his little nephew, and heard the sound of rustling on the phone, so he knew that there was a change of person on the other end, so he took the initiative to greet first:
"Grandpa, Happy New Year. ”
"Hmm. ”
Old Man Ji couldn't hear the joy and anger in response.
Then without waiting for Ji Huaifeng to say anything, he said in a deep voice:
"If you can't come back, you will be with your comrades in the army, don't always think about your family, how can you not endure hardships when you are a soldier, you want us to ...... back then"
Old Man Ji made a start, and wanted to tell his grandson what conditions they had at that time, not to mention going home for the New Year, it was not uncommon for them not to see their families for a few years.
When the words came to his mouth, he suddenly thought that today was Chinese New Year's Eve, and he decided not to remember the bitter sweetness.
When he thought that he just wanted to let go of his grandson here, he heard Ji Huaifeng on the other end of the phone say honestly:
"I wasn't in the army, I was at a friend's house. ”
Old man Ji: "......"
Almost, just a little, he had to open his mouth to ask which friend's house he was in.
But at the last moment, Old Man Ji still maintained his majesty as an elder.
Neither grandparents nor grandchildren spoke on both ends of the phone, and the quiet atmosphere made the unwilling Ji Huaiyu dare not speak out.
I just kept guessing in my heart, what did Ji Huaifeng say to the old man?
After a while, Old Man Ji squinted his wise eyes while holding the phone, and then slowly spoke:
"Then pay attention to the rules and don't cause trouble to others. ”
Ji Huaifeng's voice was still calm, and he responded:
"I see, Grandpa. ”
The old man put down the phone in the end and still didn't ask anything.
But Ji Huaifeng knew that the old man must have guessed where he was just now.
If it was in Zhao Yu's house or someone else's house, he wouldn't say anything like this, and Gu Xi's existence was not a secret to the Ji family, and he couldn't hide it from the old man.
Thinking of this, Ji Huaifeng suddenly smiled.
He was in such a hurry to tell the old man what he was doing, Gu Xi didn't even know what he wanted now.
Thinking of what Ji Yuanhang told him in a corner just now, Ji Huaiyu was listening to him just now.
Ji Huaifeng's eyes, which looked like Old Man Ji, were also narrowed when he was young.
Is it that his ignorance over the years has made Ji Huaiyu misunderstand something.
After the Ji family, the imperial capital called again.
Ji Huaifeng grew up in the imperial capital since he was a child, and several friends who grew up together, except for him who was in the field this year, the other few went back to the imperial capital for the Chinese New Year.
Only he was erratic, of course, waiting for him to call.
After finally listening to the complaints of a group of friends that they couldn't get together for the New Year, Ji Huaifeng called Zhao Yu for the last time.
Zhao Yu was quite happy to receive the call, and greeted the captain with great interest.
Of course, Zhao Yu didn't know that as soon as he left on his front foot, Ji Huaifeng went to Gu Xi's house, so he also showed his little extra sympathy to the captain:
"It's a pity that you can't go home, captain, but in fact, the food in our team is also good, and don't look at me going home, but I want to eat the meal my mother cooked for the New Year, and she won't let me do it, really, I'm not as good as you." ”
Zhao Yu was particularly kind enough to try to alleviate the captain's sadness with his own pain.
Ji Huaifeng smiled slightly:
"I know, you go and help. ”
Ji Huaifeng heard Zhao's mother shouting Zhao Yu, Zhao's mother didn't need her son to do anything, she just called her son to praise her in the past.
Zhao Yu looked pained, ready to go over and continue to accept the poison of his mother, and before putting down the phone, he didn't forget to hurry up and say to the captain:
"Captain, don't worry, I'll accompany you to Gu Xi's place for dinner when I get back. ”
When the time comes, let's improve the food.
Zhao Yu felt that the most wrong thing he made today was that he didn't go to Gu Xi's house to fill his stomach before going home.
His father was obviously more experienced than him in this regard, and as soon as he saw the old man's face calmly helping him, Zhao Yu guessed that he must have made preparations a long time ago, and he might have eaten something in advance.
How could I have thought that Ji Huaifeng heard such a sincere proposal, but he refused with a smile:
"No, you can go quickly. ”
Zhao Yu was surprised:
"No, why?"
Could it be that there is still a distance between him and Gu Xi in the New Year, can't it, the captain doesn't look like the kind of thin lover who is in the twilight.
Zhao Yu couldn't help slandering his own captain in his heart.
Then I heard the captain's voice being beaten:
"Because I'm here here in Gu Xi right now. ”
Zhao Yu: "......"
After making the phone call, he returned to the house refreshed, and as soon as Ji Huaifeng entered the door, he saw Gu Xi tinkering with something in a basin in the kitchen.
Ji Huaifeng walked over, looked at it, and said:
"Are you going to do this later?"
Gu Xi turned his head and said happily:
"Well, Luo Lao sent it, I will do it, and you can try my craft later. ”
There are also a few particularly rare seafoods, which were sent by Old Man Luo before returning to the imperial capital.
Although Old Man Luo said that he would come to "Fu Ji" often, in the end, when the old illness was just healing, he should have paid more attention to cultivation, but there have not been many times.
So on the contrary, Luo Jiran ran more to Gu Xi, and often came to send things to Gu Xi on the orders of the old man, and took a medicine or something by the way.
And Luo Jiran's character, once he felt that he could see you, he would quickly put you within the scope of his cover, so when it was time to follow Old Man Luo back to Beijing, he couldn't wait to pack Gu Xi back together.
Fortunately, it was Old Man Luo who came over in person a few years ago, so he didn't dare to mess around.
During this time, Gu Xi has been conditioning Luo Lao very well, of course, they both know that recovery is not a matter of one or two days, but Gu Xi has been taking the medicine and medicinal food prescribed by Gu Xi, and Luo Lao can clearly feel the changes in his body.
Gu Xi checked Luo Lao's pulse again, and finally prescribed a prescription according to the current situation, and even adjusted the meal, so he said with a smile:
"Luo Lao's body is okay by plane and train, just pay attention to rest after going back, if there is anything uncomfortable, call me, no, call and page. ”
Old Man Luo is quite relieved about Gu Xi now, and when he heard this, he smiled and nodded.
Turning his head to look at the still busy store, Old Man Luo rubbed the teacup that Gu Xi personally brought over, and suddenly said:
"What are your plans for in the future? Do you want to go to the imperial capital?"
Gu Xi looked up in confusion.
Why did Luo Lao ask this, why did everyone ask her if she would go to the imperial capital recently?
However, looking at Old Man Luo's concerned eyes, Gu Xi understood.
Luo Laogen is in the imperial capital, and it should be rare to have the opportunity to come to H Province after going back this time, although he also has someone here who can take care of Gu Xi, but in the end, it is better to put it under his nose.
And Gu Xi understood even more that when she reached Luo Lao's status, he would take the initiative to ask her if she had any intention of going to the imperial capital, which implied that he would arrange it no matter what life and work were after she went.
