The white-bearded old man should be Grandpa Deng.

Chen Xiaoyu stood up and watched him approach step by step.

The old man was wearing a black poplin Chinese-style cardigan top, light-colored summer cloth pants, black cloth shoes with mille-feuille soles, and a snow-white beard trembling and floating on his chest, like an old Taoist priest in a movie.

"Are you a kid from that house? What is your name? Grandpa Deng walked closer, stood under the tree with his hands in his hands, looked at Xiaoyu with blazing eyes, and his surprised expression was revealed.

"Hello grandpa, I'm Chen Xiaoyu." Xiaoyu stood with her hands down, and answered respectfully, quietly avoiding his gaze.

The old man has a breathtaking momentum, with good facial features, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a calm and casual expression, but his eyes are deep and compelling.

That Deng Yinan turned out to be a little similar to him.

"Oh, you're that kid." The old man played with the walnuts in his palm and nodded thoughtfully.

"Grandpa knows about me?" Chen Xiaoyu asked.

"Well, I've heard a few." The old man nodded slowly.

Chen Xiaoyu smiled reluctantly, and dared to ask, "Is it good or bad?" ”

"It's not good, it's not bad." The old man looked at her, "Isn't the so-called life like this?" ”

"Hmm. Grandpa was right. Xiaoyu nodded.

"I heard that you were sent back that day, and you were fine during the day, but at night you suddenly had a high fever and fell unconscious, and the doctor couldn't find out what the cause was, and I didn't think that it would be a few days later."

"Then thank you Grandma Deng, my grandma said that it was Grandma Deng who prescribed me a few pairs of medicines to eat." Chen Xiaoyu said with a smile.

"Really?" The old man was noncommittal

"And Grandma Liu helped me call my soul." Xiaoyu added with a smile and blinked, "Superstitious activities may really be useful." ”

"Well, maybe. Who can say superstition what you don't know? Just as we don't know life and death, Zhuangzi said that human life is also born with sorrow. The longevity is long-lived, and the long-term sorrow does not die. Why bother! It is also formal, and it is far away! ”

Chen Xiaoyu looked at him sideways, and didn't know why he felt his heart pounding.

The old man looked at her quietly for a moment.

Chen Xiaoyu secretly took a deep breath and prepared her mind.

Unexpectedly, he smiled and said, "Isn't it boring to hear my old man say this?" ”

"It's okay, I don't understand." Chen Xiaoyu said.

"It's normal not to understand, right, what about your grandfather?"

"I'm going to work." Xiaoyu also smiled and said honestly.

"Oh. Aren't students on vacation? He still goes to work? Grandpa Deng raised his eyebrows, revealing a curious expression.

"Teachers are always busier than students." Xiaoyu thought for a moment and replied with a smile.

Grandpa Deng smiled and blinked, "I think he is avoiding housework and hiding in school to enjoy Qingfu." After a pause, he muttered three words in a low voice, "Old stubborn." ”

The voice was not loud or small, Xiaoyu just heard it, it was not easy to say yes, nor to say no, it could only be hehehe.

"Then what are you doing here, coming out early in the morning to cool off?" Grandpa Deng said as his eyes fell on the homework book spread out on the square bench.

Xiaoyu's face turned red suddenly, and it was too late for her to put away her homework book, so she had to smirk.

Grandpa Deng bent down to pick up her homework book, flipped a few pages in his hand, squinted his eyes and glanced at it from a distance, touched his beard, and shook his head, "Well, the little girl is beautiful, and this character is written ...... Well, I really can't see people. ”

Xiaoyu was already prepared in her heart, and smiled at this time, "Words are like people, your face can't be changed, you can only practice words." ”

The old man smiled, "That's what I said." ”

"Can I learn from you?" Chen Xiaoyu asked lightly.

"You basically don't have a good handwriting." Grandpa Deng said unceremoniously.

"Yes, but it's because of the poor that I need to find a teacher like you, and if you can teach me, even a little, it will be more fulfilling." Xiaoyu said.

"Why do you want to learn to write calligraphy?" The old man asked.

Chen Xiaoyu raised his head and looked up at a trace of flowing clouds in the sky.

Can you say that you just want to meditate?

Can she say that she just wants to find something to calm her chaotic thoughts in this plane?

Can't say.

She smiled, "Yiduo doesn't press down." Grandfather. ”

Grandpa Deng let out an "oh", his eyes were a little more interested, and he smiled and said, "If you want to worship my teacher, there are conditions." ”

"What conditions?" As soon as Xiaoyu heard that there was a door, she hurriedly asked, as long as the conditions are proposed, it will be done.

"Well, if you can stand my swearing." Grandpa Deng's cold eyes looked directly at her, "I scold people fiercely, and I don't like to see people crying the most." Can you? ”

"Okay, no problem." Xiaoyu agreed. She wanted to laugh in her heart.

When Liu Lulu said bad things about others, the voice was too loud, and the old man was not dazzled or deaf, so he heard it all.

What's more, the old man has a pair of discerning eyes.

"Do you know why I teach you? Child? After walking a few steps, the old man looked back at her, "In the future, you will have something to do with our Deng family." ”

Chen Xiaoyu's heart jumped suddenly.

"At that time, please raise your noble hand." The old man said.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

"Meow, look, this old man seems to know a lot of things? Will he know about me? ”

Chen Wenhui was not there, grandma went to study in the neighborhood committee, and Xiaoyu sat alone at the door of the house talking to Meow Meow.

Meowth was eating the fish bones in the bowl with her head buried in her head, ignoring her.

"They have something to hide from me, and I have something to hide from them, so when will it take to play dumb riddles? They didn't let me go to see my mother, and my father didn't show up, so I was so sick that my parents didn't know about it, and they didn't come to see me? Even if my mom can't come when I'm hospitalized, what about my dad? Didn't my dad come to see me either? Meow, don't you think it's weird? ”

Meow Meow raised her head when she heard this, looked at her sympathetically, stretched out her little tongue again, licked the soy sauce on her beard, and continued to fight the fish head

"You know how to eat."

Xiaoyu touched its head and hummed. "Who knows how to eat?" Outside the screen door, Chen Wenhui parked the car, set up the back support of the bicycle, and asked.

"Meow meow." Chen Xiaoyu said, standing up, "Are you back?" I'll feed you. Hurry up and wash your hands and eat. ”

"Where did you pick up this kitten, I've never seen it before. It doesn't look like a wild cat. Chen Wenhui entered the house and looked down at the cat.

"Maybe someone else ran away," Chen Xiaoyu said vaguely, ran to the kitchen and brought in a bowl of rice.

Chen Wenhui put the newspaper bag in his hand on the chest of drawers, sat on the bench with a big grin, took the rice bowl in Xiaoyu's hand, and ate it in a big gulp. While eating, he said, "You want to learn to write calligraphy from the old man of the Deng family?" ”

"yes, how do you know?" As he spoke, he served another bowl of tomato and egg soup and set it aside to dry.

"Listen to what the little girl of the Liu family said, I met her at the door just now."

Chen Xiaoyu shook her head, what a gossipy little girl.

"Then the old man is willing to teach you?"

"Didn't you say that he had to teach the child when he grabbed it, how could you call it willing to teach me?"

Originally, it was begged for, but now it has become a begging for others.

"Listen to other people's nonsense, I sue you, that master is not an ordinary person."

Chen Xiaoyu remembered that sharp gaze and nodded, "It's really not an ordinary person." At least a celebrity. ”
