Chapter 52: The Great Vinegar Tank
"Hello Grandma Lu!" Zuo Wei and Han Tianyu greeted the old lady Lu politely.
"Oh, you're here? Sit down! Mrs. Lu helped down her reading glasses, handed the grapes to Zuo Wei and Han Tianyu, and said, "These are all freshly picked, you can taste them." ”
Zuo Wei picked up a grape and put it in his mouth and chewed it, it was sweet and sour, it was indeed delicious. She smiled and said, "It's so sweet! ”
"Girl, the grapes must be peeled and eaten!" Mrs. Lu peeled off a large purple grape, then put it in her mouth, and spit out a few grape seeds with her face, just like a lady.
"Oh!" Zuo Wei clumsily picked up a grape and peeled the grape skin like the old lady Lu, but the grape rolled to the ground disobediently.
"Grandma, you used to eat it all the way you used to, and now it's how to save trouble and how to get it." Seeing this, Lu Lin spoke, with a faint reproach in his tone.
Mrs. Lu glanced at her own grandson, when did this always unruly guy know to speak for others.
"I'll come." Han Tianyu took a grape, peeled it off in an instant, and handed it to Zuo Wei. His hand was a scalpel, and his movements were swift and precise.
"Thank you, Brother Tianyu!" Zuo Wei took the grapes and ate them happily.
Lu Wanwan silently watched Han Tianyu peel grapes for Zuo Wei, and her heart felt sour. She knew that Han Tianyu and Zuo Wei had a friendship of more than 20 years, although they were not boyfriend and girlfriend relationships, but their feelings were far deeper than boyfriend and girlfriend relationships, this was a kind of relationship that she longed for but could not reach, and there was only envy, jealousy and hatred.
"Wanwan, go help your mother." Although Mrs. Lu was old and her eyes were useless, she noticed the changes in Lu Wanwan as soon as Han Tianyu entered the door. This child, who has always been flying around like a butterfly at home, is sitting quietly opposite Han Tianyu at the moment, silent and shy.
Mrs. Lu knew that these young people had different thoughts, and it was inconvenient to point them thoroughly, so she just took care of peeling the grapes by herself.
Zuo Wei ate a few grapes to satisfy his hunger, and he didn't want to continue to trouble Han Tianyu, so he got up and said, "Can I take a look around?" ”
"Yes, I'll accompany you." Lu Lin, who was bored on the side, immediately got up and said.
"When did you become so attentive, kid?" Old Lady Lu glanced at Lu Lin dotingly.
"Grandma Lu used to be from a big family, right?" Han Tianyu asked with a smile.
"Well, your kid's eyes are quite poisonous." Old Lady Lu smiled.
"I heard that before the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were four major families in the capital, I don't know which lineage Grandma Lu is?" Han Tianyu asked.
"The family is in the middle, how can you talk about the big family." Old Lady Lu's eyes suddenly lost clarity and sighed.
Han Tianyu saw that the old lady did not continue, so he did not ask again. For these big families, history is always a little painful.
"This is the trophy I won when I was in middle school with the city football team, and this is a picture of me from that time!" Lu Lin said, pointing to a golden trophy in the cupboard.
"You're great!" Zuo Wei praised.
Lu Lin scratched his head embarrassedly and smirked a few times. The school grass of this key university has always been dismissive of female voices, and it is rumored in the school that girls fight for him every day, but he has always been indifferent and ignored.
But from the moment he saw Zuo Wei today, his world was in chaos. I can't say why, he just likes Zuo Wei, who is as simple and cute as a girl, and as charming as a woman, and this vague feeling makes him impulsive.
"These are pictures of your family, right?" Zuo Wei's clear voice sounded, interrupting Lu Lin's YY.
"Well, this is a family photo that our family takes every year." Lu Lin said with a smile, "From childhood to now, there are a total of twenty sheets. ”
"That's great!" Zuo Wei looked at the twenty smiling photos, and felt a sense of loss in his heart.
"It's time to eat!" When Lu Jiangong came out of the kitchen with the dishes, he saw Zuo Wei secretly sad in front of the family photo on the wall, and his heart was sad.
Zuo Wei retracted his mind and followed Lu Lin to the dining table, where Lu Wanwan's mother Lin Lin was serving soup to everyone, and everyone else was already sitting around the table.
Zuo Wei sat down next to Han Tianyu, took the soup in Lin Lin's hand, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Auntie!" ”
"You're welcome!" Lin Lin avoided Zuo Wei's eyes, and the corners of her mouth pulled stiffly.
"You're welcome here." Lu Jiangong said with a smile.
"Sister Xiaowei, my mother's cooking is delicious, come and try it!" Lu Wanwan hurriedly picked up vegetables for Zuo Wei, and then gave Han Tianyu a pair of chopsticks, and said, "Brother Tianyu, you can taste it too!" ”
"Zuo Wei, this braised pork is the best, come!" Lu Lin sandwiched a piece of braised pork into Zuo Wei's bowl.
"Thank you!" Zuo Wei became more and more polite, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only bury his head in eating.
"Xiaolin, don't be big or small!" Lu Jiangong scolded Lu Lin.
"What about eating, why do you blame the children?" Lin Lin looked a little dissatisfied with Lu Jiangong, and there was a faint sadness between her eyebrows!
"You don't always have to protect him!" Lu Jiangong comforted Lin Lin in a good voice.
"How did I protect him?" Lin Lin was angry, and put down the chopsticks he picked up again.
"Ahem...... old lady Lu coughed twice, and the two stopped arguing and continued to eat.
"By the way, what grade is Kobayashi in college now?" Zuo Wei asked Lu Lin with a smile. For some reason, she always felt that Lin Lin's gaze at her was a little strange, and that gaze was like a hint of blame in her searching, which made her feel uncomfortable.
"I'll graduate next year." Lu Lin replied, as if he was used to the small quarrels between his parents, he and Lu Wanwan did not express much surprise, and the two of them just ate very quietly.
"What major?" Han Tianyu also asked, he knew that Zuo Wei's mind was not to make the dinner too embarrassing, so he also spoke when he didn't like to talk.
Zuo Wei glanced at Han Tianyu with gratitude at this time, and these small actions made Lu Jiangong in full view. Zuo Wei's appearance of being very cautious in speaking and eating deeply pierced Lu Jiangong's heart.
Was it really wrong to invite her to the house? In order to let her come to the house for dinner openly, I don't know how many good things I said to Lin Lin, but now Zuo Wei's demeanor makes Lu Jiangong begin to doubt his thoughts.
"Law." Lu Lin replied, "Dad hopes that I can also be a 9-to-5 civil servant in the future." Looking at Lu Jiangong, his eyes were full of lamentation.
"Huh...... That's pretty good, too! Zuo Wei smiled, "With your parents envisioning the future for you, you can avoid a lot of detours!" ”
"Sister Xiaowei, don't listen to him complain so much." Lu Wanwan said with a smile, "His grades in the department are very good, but he just wants to open his own law firm in the future." ”
Lu Jiangong listened to the young people's words and I said them enthusiastically, and Lin Lin did not show any dissatisfaction, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It's because he is too inconsiderate, now that everyone has their own lives, why bother to bring up the old things again and affect the friendship of the next generation!
Zuo Wei and Han Tianyu ate and played for a while before they were about to leave, and when the two of them stood at the door and said goodbye to their families one by one, Zuo Wei saw a familiar off-road vehicle galloping towards them.
McGo's handsome face was hidden under the oversized black sunglasses, which made the corners of his lips coat with a layer of coldness, and his tall body stood in front of Zuo Wei, looking at Han Tianyu dissatisfied.
"Why don't you answer my phone?" There was a hint of anger in his voice, a hint of exhaustion. God knows that he has called Zuo Wei since lunch, and no one has answered. In a hurry, he came out of Zuo Wei's apartment and ran to any place where she might go, and finally learned about Zuo Wei's itinerary today from Liang Xiaoyu.
"Oh?" Zuo Wei immediately took out her mobile phone from her bag and looked at it, she forgot to turn back the silent mode last night, a full fifty-eight missed calls, she glanced at McGonahn's dark face, and shouted in her heart that it was over......
"I forgot to call my phone back to normal mode." Zuo Wei said with an apologetic smile.
"Then why don't you tell me about today's itinerary?" McGoh is obviously on fire, this woman goes out with a man who has a crush on her, and she doesn't know how to report it to her boyfriend, is this ignoring the existence of his real boyfriend?
"Why are you so grumpy!" Lu Lin, who was standing on the side, said dissatisfiedly.
"Who are you!" McGo's gloomy eyes looked at Lu Lin, and through his sunglasses, Lu Lin felt two sharp arrows shooting straight at him, and the temperature around him dropped a lot at once.
Very good! The woman had now succeeded in igniting the anger in his heart. The stinky boy on the other side obviously had a crush on his woman, and he dared to covet his woman in front of him Mai Shao, he didn't want to live anymore!
"Oh...... Uncle Lu, we'll go back, thank you for your hospitality today! Zuo Wei hurriedly pulled McGoh away, she didn't want this big vinegar vat to explode here and lose face.
"Well, okay. Be careful on the road! Lu Jiangong knew that McGo was Zuo Wei's boyfriend, and in front of McGoer, even he, the secretary of the municipal party committee, did not dare to say much. It is rumored in the world that Mai Shao has a violent and ruthless temperament and few words, but that is not groundless!
"Wait...... What is your name? The moment McGo turned around, Old Lady Lu suddenly opened her mouth to ask, her eyes staring at the jade wrench finger on his left hand that represented the identity of the heir of the Mai family.
McGoh looked at the old lady in front of him puzzled, not understanding what she meant, but he also did not reply coldly.
"Oh, Grandma Lu, he's McGoer, Mai of Wheat, Ge of the Gobi Desert." Zuo Wei smiled and introduced McGow to Mrs. Lu, and secretly said in his heart that he didn't expect this McGow to eat all ages! Not only are young women often thrown into their arms, but now even Grandma Lu has taken a fancy to him.
The old lady didn't say anything, sighed, and turned to leave.
Zuo Wei looked at the back of the old lady Lu in puzzlement, not understanding why she reacted like this. But it's not easy to ask herself, after all, she is an elder.
"Let's go, go back!" Han Tianyu's faint voice sounded, and he said to Zuo Wei again, "I'll go back first!" ”
Lu Wanwan looked at Han Tianyu's lonely expression and lonely back, and she didn't know whether she was happy or worried. The good thing is that he is still alone, and the worry is that his love for Zuo Wei is so persistent.
"You are the famous Mai Shao in the capital?" Lu Lin's eyes opened incredibly wide, McGoh was a figure he had always regarded as an idol, but he didn't expect to meet him at the door of his house today, and it seemed that he was Zuo Wei's boyfriend!
McGo glanced at Lu Lin coldly, and his tone did not have any warmth to speak of: "Boy, stay away from my woman!" It was full of warnings, so he took Zuo Wei and turned around and left.
Lu Lin was petrified, he didn't expect that the idol he had been pursuing all along, he would directly sentence himself to death because of his words! I really want to cry without tears!
Lin Lin looked at the two cars that had left one after another, and snorted coldly in a voice that only she and Lu Jiangong heard.
