Chapter 560: Grandma Zhu
Hua Qiuyue's understanding of the young people in front of her should be said to be not small.
She knew that he had come to Puhai alone to study, and that he was studying at Xinhua University, one of the top universities in China.
She also knew that this young man owned several small apartments converted from a commercial house in Puhai, which seemed to have been left to him by his grandfather.
Judging from the first two points, this young man seems to have a fairly good family background and economic conditions.
However, this is not the case.
Hua Qiuyue also knew how Yang Xiaolin and Jingxue met.
Yang Xiaolin has to work in Puhai during the summer vacation in order to earn enough tuition.
Later, he took a few jobs by himself, distributed flyers, and served as a tutor, and it was not until the start of school that the tuition fees were collected.
And in his interaction with Jingxue, he showed kindness and easy-going that made people admire and move.
At the beginning, Hua Qiuyue just felt that Jingxue was so beautiful, and it was normal for boys to treat her better.
But later, she gradually discovered that Yang Xiaolin's kindness to Jingxue was not just out of yearning for beauty.
He helped Jingxue redeem the necklace, and when the financial situation was very bad, he let Jingxue, who had no money to pay the rent, live in an apartment.
Later, he took the opportunity to be a psychological consultant for Chen Wanyi, so that Jingxue got the opportunity to dance at the concert and sing a song with Chen Wanyi.
It was this opportunity that allowed Jingxue to return to the public's field of vision, and she was proud to continue her acting career.
Synthesizing what she knows about Yang Xiaolin, she can see some of this young man's personality.
Strong, self-reliant, kind...... Unconsciously, Hua Qiuyue found that there were so many shining points in this young man.
Now she finally knew why, subconsciously, she had a pretty good impression of this young man.
This is not because he is good to Jingxue, Jingxue has a good relationship with him, so she loves Wu and Wu.
It's a thing that this young man does, so that the goodwill grows from nothing, and then it continues to accumulate little by little.
Looking back now, if it weren't for her good impression of Yang Xiaolin, she wouldn't have accepted his invitation so easily.
Even if he agrees, he will find a way to confirm with Jingxue first.
At the gate of Haiyuan Community, she learned that Jingxue did not know about this invitation, so she did not turn around and leave, but continued to accept his invitation and listened to him explain the reason.
The source of this accommodation is trust.
Yes, Hua Qiuyue suddenly found that in her heart, she actually had a very high sense of trust in this young man.
There are so many thoughts that it takes only a moment.
"Xiao Yang, I won't accept your compensation." Hua Qiuyue's tone was equally resolute.
How could she ask the young man to lose money because her dress was soiled.
Let's not mention the high price of this dress, which will put a heavy burden on this young man who is already strapped for money.
If she really accepted the compensation, what would she think of her if Jingxue knew about it later.
I'm afraid that she, the stepmother, will stop trying to get Jingxue's approval in the future.
first snatched her mother's place, causing her mother to die of gloom at a young age.
Now she is forcing her to help her the most, and her most important friend is to lose money, and with Jingxue's character, she will really never get along with her in the future.
Therefore, she will never accept this compensation.
Yang Xiaolin said unhurriedly: "Aunt Hua, there is a loan and a return, that's right." ”
"If something borrowed, if it is damaged, it will be compensated, which is also a matter of course."
Hua Qiuyue immediately interrupted Yang Xiaolin's words: "The truth is this truth. But Xiao Yang, I hope you can understand my situation. “
"Just imagine what Jingxue would think of me if I accepted your compensation."
"I think you also know that I am not Jingxue's biological mother, and Jingxue has always been reluctant to accept me because of her mother's affairs."
"Over the years, I have been working hard to be a qualified mother who is recognized by her."
Saying that, she paused slightly, and then sighed: "So, Xiao Yang, please understand me, I can't do anything that might damage my relationship with Jingxue." ”
Yang Xiaolin said: "That's why I asked you out alone." And please rest assured, I will definitely not let Jingxue know about the compensation dress. ”
Hua Qiuyue still shook her head: "Xiao Yang, it's not that I don't believe you. You're still young, and you don't know that there are no impermeable walls under this sky. ”
"No matter how secret you and I are, this matter will still get out in the end."
"What's more, this is not a secret in the first place, and it is difficult to keep it secret."
Hua Qiuyue's attitude was so resolute, and Yang Xiaolin was also a little difficult.
"But the borrowed dress was soiled by me, and if I don't compensate, I can't feel at ease." Yang Xiaolin frowned and said.
Hua Qiuyue could see that Yang Xiaolin was not pretending, and she didn't want the other party to be so entangled.
She suddenly had an idea and said, "Xiao Yang, if you don't do this, don't mention the matter of losing money." ”
"If you really don't want to go, you can make up for it in other ways."
Yang Xiaolin smiled bitterly: "Aunt Hua, although I don't know the specific price of this dress. However, I heard Ah Biao say that this dress is at least tens of thousands. ”
"I was going to write you an IOU and pay it back slowly."
"You said to compensate in other ways, and I thought about it and found that there seems to be no place that can help you."
Hua Qiuyue, as the wife of the Ouyang family, what kind of talent does she need, and she still needs him as a freshman helper?
Hua Qiuyue smiled and shook her head: "Xiaolin, you are too arrogant." ”
"You are very capable and excellent, otherwise why would Jingxue ask you for help when you first came to Puhai."
This Aunt Hua is really good at talking, where is Jingxue asking him for help, it is clear that he is just going to work for Jingxue.
Hua Qiuyue continued: "Looking at the fact that you have only studied psychology for a few months, you can take charge of yourself and be a psychological consultant for a big star like Chen Wanyi." ”
"When I was a psychological consultant, I also took the opportunity to help Jingxue a lot."
"You're so modest, don't you want to help your aunt?"
Hua Qiuyue said so, what else could Yang Xiaolin say, so he had to say: "As long as Auntie really has a place for me, I will do my best." ”
Hua Qiuyue nodded with satisfaction, it seems that it is possible to get a very perfect solution to the matter of dress compensation.
"That's the ......" Hua Qiuyue was just about to say the way to compensate when she heard someone gently tap on the screen.
This small private room was originally separated by a screen, there is no door at all, if you want to come in, open a curtain and you can walk in directly.
Yang Xiaolin has eaten in this restaurant many times, and he has never seen anyone knock on the screen, even if the waiter serves the food, he always shouts and comes in.
But one thing is for sure, the one who knocked on the screen must be a very well-cultivated person.
"Please come in." Hua Qiuyue is accustomed to this and thinks that this is normal.
The curtain was opened, but the people who walked in were greatly surprised by Hua Qiuyue.
She thought it was a waiter who came to serve the food, but she didn't expect an old lady to appear.
Although the old lady was dressed ordinarily, under her gray hair, she had a face that still looked a little delicate.
Although the eyes full of kindness are no longer bright, they still bear traces of the beauty of the past.
This is an old lady who is very comfortable to look at, and will naturally reminiscent of her youthful elegance.
Yang Xiaolin stood up with a look of surprise and shouted to the old lady, "Grandma Zhu." ”
Grandma Zhu? Hua Qiuyue's heart moved, just now she felt that this old lady was a little familiar, and then she heard Yang Xiaolin call Grandma Zhu, she immediately thought of someone.
Could it be the lady? Hua Qiuyue said secretly in her heart.
At this time, Yang Xiaolin had already greeted him, and while raising his hand to help, he said, "Grandma Zhu, I haven't seen you for a while." Where have you been all this time? ”
The old lady looked at Yang Xiaolin with a kind face, her eyes were full of softness and love.
"You haven't seen me in a while because you've gone to school." The old lady smiled and said, "You stay at school every day, of course you can't see me." ”
The old lady's words made Yang Xiaolin scratch his head.
Yang Xiaolin and Grandma Zhu met in this restaurant.
I remember that during that time, as long as he ate in this restaurant, he could basically meet this Grandma Zhu.
Grandma Zhu seemed to be very close to him, and every time Yang Xiaolin saw her, she would smile and nod to him kindly.
Later, again, Grandma Zhu found that she forgot to bring money after eating, and Yang Xiaolin took the initiative to help her pay the bill.
Yang Xiaolin still remembers the appreciation and relief in Grandma Zhu's eyes at that time, as well as some meanings that he couldn't say.
In short, after that time, he and Grandma Zhu officially met.
When the two meet in a restaurant in the future, they will sit at a table and chat casually.
However, after Yang Xiaolin went to report to school, he never saw Grandma Zhu again.
Sometimes chatting with Jing Xue on the phone, he also mentioned Grandma Zhu, Jing Xue also said that after the start of school, although she came to this restaurant to eat a few times, she never saw Grandma Zhu again.
I didn't expect to invite Hua Qiuyue to come here for dinner today, and I was able to meet Grandma Zhu, which made Yang Xiaolin very happy.
"Grandma Zhu, have you eaten?" Yang Xiaolin asked.
Grandma Zhu smiled and said, "As soon as I entered the restaurant to order food, the boss yelled at me, saying that you had a treat in the box, so come in and have a look." ”
Yang Xiaolin hurriedly helped Grandma Zhu sit down and said, "Our dishes have been ordered, and the dishes should come up soon, Grandma Zhu will eat with us." ”
After Grandma Zhu sat down, she turned her head to look at Hua Qiuyue.
Yang Xiaolin hurriedly introduced: "Grandma Zhu, this is Aunt Hua, she is Xiaoxue's mother. ”
Grandma Zhu showed a sudden look, nodded to Hua Qiuyue, and said, "It turned out to be Xiaoxue's mother." But your daughter is much prettier than you. ”
Yang Xiaolin was suddenly a little embarrassed, Grandma Zhu has always spoken very modestly and decently, why did she suddenly speak like this today.
However, Hua Qiuyue didn't think it at all, she still had a smile on her face, nodded and said: "Xiaoxue is much more beautiful than me, to have such a beautiful daughter, I, as a mother, also feel very happy and proud in my heart." ”
Grandma Zhu nodded, and said: "It is their own business for young people to make friends, as long as they are not treacherous, elders should not interfere with them, they should be given space and freedom, and they should choose for themselves." ”
Grandma Zhu, what's wrong today? It seems that every sentence has thorns, and they are all stabbed to Hua Qiuyue.
Did they know each other before, and had a feast?
But it doesn't seem to be, when Grandma Zhu just came in, they didn't look like they knew each other.
It seems that after introducing Aunt Hua as Jingxue's mother, Grandma Zhu's attitude began to change.
However, Hua Qiuyue's attitude was still very good, she still smiled and nodded, and said with a little respect: "The old man is right. ”
"It's like Xiaoxue can meet a wonderful boy like Xiao Yang, I'm too late to be happy."
"I want to ask Xiao Yang to be my little daughter Jingyue as a tutor now, but I don't know if Xiao Yang is willing."
Yang Xiaolin looked at Hua Qiuyue stunned when she heard this, and she didn't know if she was joking casually or if she really had this idea.
Could it be that this is the way she just said to compensate?
But when he thought of Jingxue's sister, Yang Xiaolin had a headache.
The girl seemed to have met for the first time, and for some reason, she was a little hostile to him.
Although he has the experience of tutoring a violent girl like Xie Yuting, he can't use his skills to deal with Jingyue.
Grandma Zhu seemed to be quite satisfied with Hua Qiuyue's attitude, and nodded: "Xiaolin studied at Xinhua University, and it is not cheap to ask him to be a tutor." ”
Hua Qiuyue said with a smile: "As long as Xiao Yang is willing to be a tutor for Jingyue, the treatment will be raised." ”
"Instead, I'm worried that Xiao Yang thinks Jingyue is too stubborn and doesn't want to teach her."
Yang Xiaolin thought about it and felt that the matter of being a tutor for Jingyue had to be considered, especially to ask Jingxue's opinion, after all, this involved Jingxue's family affairs.
"Aunt Hua, whether to be a tutor for Jingyue, I want to discuss it with Jingxue first." Yang Xiaolin said apologetically.
Hua Qiuyue waved her hand and said, "Xiao Yang, this is as it should be." ”
At this time, I heard the boss's voice coming: "The dish is here." ”
The meal was served, and the three of them chatted while eating.
Yang Xiaolin was the one who spoke the most, not that he suddenly became talkative, but Grandma Zhu, who had not been seen for a long time, kept asking him about his recent study and life at school.
And no matter what Yang Xiaolin said, Grandma Zhu listened to it with relish.
Hua Qiuyue seemed to be very interested in Yang Xiaolin's study and life, and she also smiled at the corner of her mouth, listened with interest, and asked a question or two from time to time.
This meal, Yang Xiaolin's mouth was tired.
After saying that, there are a dozen baskets, and the meals cannot be eaten less.
There is no way, among the three of them, Grandma Zhu and Hua Qiuyue eat very little.
And the enthusiastic boss was very happy to see Yang Xiaolin again, and specially added the amount of dishes on their table.
In order not to waste, Yang Xiaolin had to let go of his stomach and eat.
