Meng Huiyan's family used to be neighbors not far from Wu Tong's grandfather. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although the Meng family later moved to Hangzhou, Meng Huiyan's grandparents and Wu Tong's grandfather are old acquaintances, and the old man can be regarded as watching Wu Tong grow up, so he is naturally no stranger to Wu Tong.
Mr. Meng is now retired, and he is recuperating at home, and he usually reads books, plays chess, and goes out for activities in his spare time, and does not have too many entertainment activities.
At first glance, when they saw Wu Tonglai, who had not seen each other for many years, brought back by his granddaughter to visit them, Mr. Meng and his wife were still very surprised and surprised.
Especially Grandma Meng, after seeing Wu Tong, she was very kind, and since Wu Tong entered the door, she pulled Wu Tong and talked endlessly.
However, Grandma Meng is also a reasonable person, she chatted with Wu Tong about the naughty and mischievous anecdotes when they were children, and did not mention too much about her grandfather, so as not to arouse Wu Tong's sad memories and weaken the joyful atmosphere.
But the topic will inevitably touch Wu Tong's grandfather, and it will also arouse Old Man Meng's sigh and sigh for the death of his old friend.
Meng Huiyan took Wu Tong to her house to visit the old man and Grandma Meng, and did not directly mention the matter related to bringing Wu Tong here.
She just said in her speech that Wu Tong's career is now damaged, and the house left by her grandfather was forcibly taken away by the bank to pay off the loan owed, and she is homeless.
After Old Man Meng and Grandma Meng heard it, they were very enthusiastic about helping them, so that Wu Tong had any difficulties Although he told them that although Wu Tong has no relatives now and is alone and has become an orphan, he can treat them as relatives.
Listening to those warm words, Wu Tong's heart was very moved, and his eyes couldn't help but reddened slightly.
The main topic is still nostalgia for the past, and when it came to dinner in the evening, Wu Tong and Meng Huiyan tacitly agreed that they did not mention Tai Sui's heart to the elders.
It wasn't until the evening, when Meng Huiyan was pestering Old Man Meng to inquire about the relevant information and status of some old friends he knew, that his granddaughter's unusual speech and behavior aroused Old Man Meng's curiosity.
After all, Old Man Meng is an old man, and after just a few words, he found out the reason from his granddaughter.
Knowing that Wu Tong had a treasure in his hand and was ready to redeem the house after a low-key sale, he wanted to find a reliable buyer through his granddaughter, but he was also willing to help, and the old man Meng proposed that he wanted to palm his eyes first.
Wu Tong still trusted Old Man Meng very much, so he presented the Tai Sui Heart that he had taken out of the soul universe space early to Old Man Meng.
The old man was still very surprised when he first encountered this thousand-year-old rare thing.
He studied it carefully in front of Wu Tong for a while, and after flipping through a few medical classics, he quickly determined the value of that Tai Sui's heart, which was indeed a good treasure of great value.
In order to be more intuitive, Wu Tong took a little bit from the heart of Tai Sui and gave Old Man Meng a tea experience.
After Mr. Meng's experience, just a little soaking water to drink, its effect was already very strong, making him feel refreshed all over, his vitality was doubled, and his spirit was light, and he couldn't help but be convinced of the effect of that Tai Sui's heart.
Although the old man was confirmed after the experience, he did not promise to help find a credible buyer, but just asked Wu Tong to put the baby away carefully, and there was no follow-up.
Wu Tong was not in a hurry, and stayed at Meng's house that night.
Early the next morning, Grandma Meng came to ask Wu Tong to have breakfast, and Wu Tong found that Old Man Meng was not at home and had already gone out.
Even Grandma Meng didn't know what the old man was doing when he went out early in the morning, she just thought she was going out to exercise.
But until noon, I still haven't seen Old Man Meng come back, Grandma Meng is very patient, and she will naturally come back when she says it's time to come back.
Wu Tong could also calm down, he had a faint hunch that the old man must be going to meet some important person.
But with Meng Huiyan's temperament, she couldn't sit still, she didn't know where the old man had gone, and the phone couldn't get through, so she couldn't do anything at home.
Wu Tong persuaded her not to be impatient, but Meng Huiyan never calmed down, always thinking crankily, and even asked to guess if something would happen to the old man, which made Grandma Meng speechless and relieved for a while.
It wasn't until about two o'clock in the afternoon that the old man came back with a spring breeze, and what sent him back was a high-class vehicle with a military license plate.
But Grandma Meng nagged him well, complaining that he didn't know about his family when he went out, which made them worried.
The old man was in a very good mood, but Meng Huiyan was entangled and asked how things were going, and Grandma Meng complained to her again, thinking that her granddaughter was filial and concerned about her grandfather's safety, but she was originally concerned about whether things were done, so she began to nag about when to give them a great-grandson, and she no longer loved her granddaughter.
Meng Huiyan urged and inquired vigorously, but the old man was silent and refused to reveal it, just saying that they should wait patiently at home, and there would be news from them.
Meng Huiyan couldn't stay at home, and after making a few phone calls to pay attention to the company's affairs, she proposed to take Wu Tong around.
Wu Tong didn't have the heart to go shopping, Mr. Meng used to be a university professor, and there were a lot of books in the study, Wu Tong asked to see the book, the old man didn't allow, he has been a teacher for decades, and he likes children who love to read and learn.
The collection of books in the study room is very extensive, and some of them are science and science, but most of them are literary books.
Wu Tong is not picky, he reads any book.
His current brain domain development has long exceeded ordinary people, reading comprehension and memory ability are extraordinary, others may read a book page by page, and those who do not understand will stop and study slowly.
But Wu Tong is different, he reads books at first glance as if he is turning a book, and the speed of turning the pages is also very fast, his eyes are like a scanner at a glance and dozens of lines, but it does not hinder his thinking activities and comprehension and memory.
Therefore, every time he takes out a book, he can read it in a short time, and those scientific ones may be a little slower, and some esoteric words and scientific terms need to be compared by querying relevant annotations to understand.
And those literary books, whether they are in Chinese or English or other foreign languages that have not been translated, there is no barrier, and Wu Tong's speed of reading is also surprisingly fast.
In the afternoon, most of the books in Old Man Meng's study were finished by Wu Tong.
If Meng Huiyan hadn't asked him to go to dinner after returning from shopping, it is estimated that Wu Tong would have forgotten the passage of time and would still stay in the study until he finished reading all the old man's books.
At dinner, there was still no news.
Meng Huiyan's urgency flared up again, and she pestered Old Man Meng to hurry up and get down to business, if she didn't work, she would take the initiative, she still had a mess to deal with, and she couldn't wait at home.
Old Man Meng just said: "If you have something urgent to work, you can leave first, and Ah Tong will stay at home with us!" ”
Grandma Meng mended the knife: "Ah Tong is not in a hurry, what are you in a hurry?" ”
After Meng Huiyan was hit by two old punches with a stun effect, she finally stopped.
In fact, things in her company are in order, she will not have someone to deal with it, Meng Huiyan is a person who has a beginning and an end to doing things, he is determined to help Wu Tong, so he wants to do it neatly, so that Wu Tong can redeem the house as soon as possible, so as not to have many dreams at night, and the house will be sold to others by the bank.
Until about nine o'clock in the evening, a black car quietly drove into the Meng family's house and stopped.
