In Tang Chong's impression, these old men who created miracles when they were young, stood at the top of the glory of various fields, and some were even able to enter politics or economics textbooks. For them, material things such as money are already outside the body, and what they are pursuing now is nothing more than the development of the family and inner peace.

However, he never thought that Su Shan's grandfather would ask him for a gift when he just entered the door?

Although no one had introduced to him that this bald and thin little old man was Su Shan's grandfather, Tang Zhong knew that the person who could talk to Su Shan and the silver-haired old man in this room must be him.

"What do you see? Haven't you seen an old man? You bring me don't, that's my high wind and bright festival. If you don't even have a gift, that's proof that you're a kid who is slick or doesn't take us seriously. How? You disagree? ”

Su Shan glanced at Tang Chong, stood sideways to the side, and did not mean to introduce or relieve Tang Chong.

Su Shan was silent, and the silver-haired old man naturally couldn't speak. He's not going to do anything to make a difference.

So, Tang Zhong stood alone in the center of the brightly lit hall, facing the scolding of the thin little old man alone.

Tang Zhong was not angry, nor was he angry.

He walked up to the little old man, bowed deeply, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, I'm really sorry, this is indeed my failure to fulfill my courtesy." I was in such a hurry that I didn't have time to buy a gift for you. I apologize to you. I am here to assure you that every time I come to Suzhou and Hangzhou to visit you in the future, I will definitely prepare a generous gift. ”

"In a hurry? In a hurry, you don't even have time to buy a bottle of wine and a box of tobacco leaves? Didn't Su Shan's girl tell you what I liked? Hasty? It's all an excuse that can't be put on the table. What's wrong? You made me so angry this time, and you want to come to Suzhou and Hangzhou to see me often in the future? No way. There are no doors. The old man not only didn't listen to Tang Chong's explanation, but became even more angry. The tone of speech is also more snarky.

"It's a must-come." Tang Zhong said with a smile. "Not only do I want to come, but I also want Su Shan to accompany me. And every time I come, I have to apologize to my grandfather. If you don't accept it once, then apologize twice, and if you don't accept it twice, then apologize three times. Until my grandfather accepted my apology. ”

"Look at it, look at it," the little old man pointed at Tang Zhong and said to Su Shan. "This kid is so good-looking, you can tell at a glance that he is not a serious good man. And it's full of lies, you must not be fooled. ”

"You say I'm good-looking, I can't deny it." Tang Chong Zhengse said. Of course, he will not deny it either. "Because the facts are right in front of me, it's useless for me to deny them. However, you say that a good-looking man must be a bad man, and I don't agree with that. Isn't there a good man who looks good? At that time, one of our prime ministers, he was so handsome, but he was a good prime minister who was respected by the whole world. And -- and the male protagonists in the movies and TV series, they are all good-looking, but each of them is doing righteous things. He even sacrificed his life for justice. Aren't they all good people? ”

"Bastard, don't mention to me all those messy movies and TV shows, those are all made by idiots for fools. Those male protagonists are all fake, maybe the heart and eyes are worse than you kid-" The little old man tilted his neck and thought about it, looked at Su Shan suspiciously, and asked, "What did I want to say just now?" ”

Su Shan smiled and said, "Grandpa, he's not a good person. ”

"Yes. You're not a good kid. Even my granddaughter could see it. ”

"Then I'm not a bad person." Tang Zhong said with a good temper. "Because I haven't done anything bad."

The little old man looked at Su Shan and asked, "Is what he said true?" ”

"I don't know what he's referring to." Su Shan said.

"Like women?" The little old man said. "Did he bully a lot of women?"

Su Shan glanced at Tang Chong and said, "Is there one?" I'm not very concerned about that. ”

"Absolutely not." Tang Zhong said with certainty.

"Are you so sure?"

"Yes." Tang Zhong said. "Because I don't like women, I don't bully. If it was the woman I liked, I wouldn't bully it. ”

You're quibbling. The thin old man said angrily.

"It's also true." Don laughed heavily.

"Okay, grandpa. Did you pass the assessment? Su Shan looked at the old man and asked.

"You girl-" The thin old man pointed at Su Shan and reprimanded. "What? Know it's distressed? Started talking to outsiders? ”

"He studied psychology." Su Shan explained. "I'm afraid you can't stump him with this little trick of yours."

"Oh. A treacherous and slippery stinky boy. The thin old man said. But the only thing that is commendable is that he also knows how to respect the elderly. That's a lot better than a lot of people. ”

The thin old man is Su Shan's grandfather Su Caiyuan, who is the Su family's traditional textile enterprise to a high-tech enterprise

The leader and implementer of business transformation and success, when he withstood the tremendous pressure within the family and insisted on going his own way, eventually achieved success and brought rich rewards to the family.

Sujia has been able to have today, and he has made great contributions.

He is a person who lives like a human spirit, even if his face is old and his hair is off, but his eyes are still sharp and bright.

He could see that Tang Zhong was respecting him from the bottom of his heart, rather than acting with him like other young people.

What does this mean?

First, it shows that he has excellent literacy and a strong sense of tolerance.

Second, it shows that he attaches importance to Su Shan, and turns this attention into respect for himself.

Third, it shows that he is not bad-eyed. Generally speaking, people who know how to respect the elderly, this person will not be bad.

If he just shouted and scolded, and the kid blushed or felt that he was humiliated and turned away, then it would be useful to prove that this man was embarrassed. In any case, he would not allow his granddaughter to get too close to such an idiot.

In his heart, Tang Chong's performance was not satisfactory. Sort of one of the two highest-scoring youngsters he's ever seen.

"Thank you grandpa for the compliment." Tang Zhong said with a smile. "I'll keep up the good work."

"You're trying to trick my old man again. ()" Su Caiyuan said coldly.

Tang Zhong smiled and did not continue to quarrel with the old man.

Only then did the silver-haired old man step forward and say, "Master, can you have dinner?" ”

"Dinner." The old man said.

So, the silver-haired old man went out to make arrangements, and soon two servants came in with two trays.

The tray was full of delicate stir-fries, including a scrambled egg with green peppers, a fried meat with beans, a fish, and then a big bowl of black vegetable soup made of I don't know what ingredients. Three bowls of sweet potato porridge, that's tonight's dinner.

"I didn't expect you to come." Su Cai sat at the head of the table and said with a cold snort. "Of course, you know you can't cook too much if you want to come. Eat too much and waste it. ”

"That's good. There is fish and meat. Tang Zhong said with a smile. He's not being modest, he's really feeling enough. He is not picky about eating. Sometimes he and the bearded man were too lazy to cook, so they bought two steamed buns from the canteen and ate them with boiled water.

He took a sip of sweet potato porridge, but he felt that the taste was sweet and refreshing.

"These dishes are all grown by my grandfather himself." Su Shan took a small bite of the meal and added a sentence in a loud voice.

"Doesn't it taste like the food outside?" Tang Zhong said with a smile.

"Less sycophancy. Eat without speaking. The little old man said. He picked up the bowl of sweet potato porridge in front of him and ate it all for a while, almost without having to eat the dish in front of him.

After eating the sweet potato porridge, he took a bowl of black soup to drink.

Then, he ended the battle first, and dropped the dishes and chopsticks contentedly.

Sushan's meals are not large, and there are not many vegetables to eat. These three dishes and one soup all went into Tang Chong's stomach.

After trying it himself, Tang Chong realized that this black soup was a kind of wild vegetable soup that he didn't know, and it might have been planted by the little old man himself. When Tang Chong came in just now, he saw a farmhouse paradise at the door, and the plants in it were quite lush.

"Full?" Su Caiyuan looked at Su Shan and asked gently.

"It's full." Su Shan nodded.

Su Caiyuan looked at Tang Chong again and said, "Don't wronged me if you haven't eaten enough." Enough food, enough food. ”

Tang Zhong smiled bitterly and said, "Grandpa, don't worry." I'm full. I won't blame you even if you're not full. ”

"That's good." Su Caiyuan got up from the chair and said, "Su Shan help clean up, you kid will go to the study with me to talk." ”

Tang Zhong knew that coming here would not just be for a meal, so he quickly stood up and followed the old man towards the inner room.

Although the old man spoke very politely, his voice was insufficient, and his walking posture was also very slow. It seems that just as Tang Zhong knew, the old man's health was getting worse and worse.

If this is the case, Su Shan's life in this family may be even more difficult.

Su Caiyuan's study was not densely packed with books like other people's books, but was filled with various helmets between the lattices of the bookcase. There is a wall that is densely hung with keys to various famous cars.

There are not many real books, and there are only a few martial arts novels.

Su Caiyuan saw that Tang Chong's eyes had been looking at his bookcase, and said, "When I was young, I liked flying cars. ”

He pointed to the car keys again and said, "These are the sports cars I've owned." ”

"I can't see it." Tang Zhong said with sincere admiration.

Su Caiyuan pursed his lips and said, "How can I make up for girls if I look like me and don't make up for some advantages in other aspects?" ”
