"Xiao Yi, do you still know me?"

Hearty laughter came down from upstairs, and when I looked up, one old and one young, the old one was almost seventy, and the middle-aged one was also in his fifties, and both of them were also looking at Zou Yi.

Zou Yi was a little impressed, but he couldn't remember where he had seen this middle-aged man, and his expression was a little dazed for a while.

"You kid, you don't even know Uncle Xia anymore?" The middle-aged man scolded with a smile.

"Hey, are you the Uncle Xia who fell ill in Qiyun Mountain?" This time, Zou Yi remembered that he was only eight years old at that time, so it was no wonder that this memory was a little vague.

"Stinky boy, you're sick" The middle-aged man stumbled and almost didn't fall down the stairs.

"Isn't this all the same," Zou Yi said with a smile.

Speaking of this middle-aged man, Zou Yike is still his life-saving benefactor, that would be in Qiyun Mountain, if there was no "life needle", I am afraid that this person would have died a long time ago.

"Hey, no, Uncle Xia, why are you here, your surname is Xia, Zhilan won't be your daughter, right?" Zou Yi suddenly came back to his senses, feeling that this meal had been planned for a long time, so he was kept in the dark by himself.

"Young man, you saved Tao Bai back then?" Xia Taobai didn't speak, but it was the old man on the side who spoke.

Zou Yi shook his head and said, "Actually, it's not called help, it's just to help Uncle Xia stabilize his condition, and the rest is not what I did." ”

"Well, yes, don't be arrogant," the old man nodded and praised.

"Grandpa, who is this brother?" The child on one side obviously felt the loss of his status, and hurriedly interjected.

The old man touched the child's head dotingly, and said with a smile: "He is your brother Zou Yi, who saved your uncle before." ”

"Liar, how old is he, how can he save Uncle" The child shook his head in disbelief.

"Children's family, what do you know, go, go and play" Xia Taobai said angrily.

Watching the little boy walk away angrily, Zou Yi smiled bitterly: "Uncle Xia, did you know that I was at Huaqing University?" ”

Xia Taobai nodded and said, "Yes, Zhilan told me about you when he came back for the first time after the start of school." ”

"How did Zhilan know me?" Zou Yi didn't understand it, if he knew, he didn't see it at all on the train.

Xia Taobai glared at him fiercely, and said with a wry smile: "She doesn't know you, but she has never heard me talk about you since she was a child, and she knows your name, but, you kid, where have you been for more than ten years, Uncle Xia has gone to Liucun to find you many times, and he said that he doesn't know where you have been." ”

"I didn't go anywhere, I just went out to play"

"Play? Can you play for more than ten years? Did your master take you out of Lu? Xia Taobai asked with a smile.

"Don't ask, there are some things I can't say, my master and his old man don't like to be asked."

Xia Taobai nodded thoughtfully: "Okay, then don't talk about this, Zhilan, this girl came back, but you said that there is nothing in the sky and on the earth, how much drug did your kid pour into her." ”

When she heard the words Zhilan, Xia Zhilan, who was originally helping in the kitchen, suddenly pricked up her little ears, for fear that she had missed something.

"Don't listen to her nonsense, I spent all day in the library when I went to college, and I didn't do anything"

"I said, Xiao Yi, I can tell you, in order to find you, my daughter went to Qiyun Mountain three times with me, and stayed in your dilapidated house for two nights, you kid should think about it."

"Dad, what do you say, come and help serve the food"

As soon as these words were finished, Xia Zhilan over there was not happy, didn't she expose the old story, and shouted with a blushing face.

Standing up, Xia Taobai said with a smile: "The girl is not allowed to say, you can ask her yourself when the time comes." ”

Hearing the laughter from the kitchen, Zou Yi was also speechless, no wonder she was so familiar with Qi Yunshan, and she went three times in her relationship, but what is this girl looking for him, she has never seen her face, it is really strange, and she has lived in his small dilapidated house for two days, which is even more strange.

"Xiao Yi, I heard that you studied Chinese medicine with your master?" After Xia Taobai left, the old man opened the conversation.

"Well, the broad spirit of Chinese medicine, I have only learned a little fur, and I still have some research on acupuncture." Zou Yi said modestly.

The old man nodded and said, "Yes, there are not many young people who can calm down and learn Chinese medicine these days, otherwise we wouldn't have so many skills lost in Huaxia." ”

"Xiao Yi, tell me, which is more powerful than this Chinese medicine or Western medicine?"

Zou Yi said with a smile: "Grandpa Xia, in fact, this Western medicine can only be regarded as a branch of traditional Chinese medicine, but this branch is easier for people to grasp than other branches, so it has developed relatively quickly, and gradually overshadowed other branches." ”

"Well, that makes sense, you go on," the little old man listened with relish, and couldn't help urging.

"Take acupuncture as an example, there are many things that cannot be compared with Western medicine, such as changing the aura in the human body through acupuncture, and using acupuncture to expel the stagnant qi in the human body, which is not possible in this branch of Western medicine, so let's say that comparing Chinese medicine and Western medicine is like comparing a father and son, there is no comparison."

The old man took a sip of the teacup and said with a smile: "Xiao Yi, your statement is insightful, not exaggerated, but it is to the point that the root of Chinese medicine and Western medicine, although I don't understand medical skills, but I also have a feeling of being suddenly opened when I hear you say this, ha, interesting." ”

"What's interesting, it's time to eat, Dad, come, Xiaoyi, come and sit." Mother Xia brought a pot of braised pork to the table and said with a smile.

"Eat first, eat first, and then tell my old man after eating." The old man said happily.

When all the dishes were on the table, Zou Yi found that this table of dishes was made by Xia Zhilan's mother, today is Christmas, the day of the New Year for foreigners, and the nanny at home is also on vacation, and this table of dishes has been busy from one o'clock in the afternoon to now, which makes Zou Yi a little embarrassed.

"Xiao Yi, come and try the braised pork made by Mother Xia, I haven't made it for many years, and I don't know if it suits your appetite."

"This one wants to eat, this is Xia's mother's specialty, come and try it"

"This salt-and-pepper pork rib is carefully selected by Mother Xia, it is all lean meat and not a little fat, and you young people don't eat fatty meat......

Looking at the plate full of vegetables in front of him, Zou Yi couldn't cry or laugh, this meal must not be eaten, and if he can eat all the dishes in front of him, he will already have to support it, but seeing Xia's mother's enthusiastic appearance, he feels warmth, which is the feeling that his mother can bring him, but today he also felt it in Xia's mother who met for the first time.

"Xiao Yi, Uncle Xia told you that after I came back from Qiyun Mountain that time, I was not less complained by your mother Xia."

"What are you complaining about?" Zou Yi asked casually.

Xia Taobai said angrily: "What do you say are complaining about, back then, your Uncle Xia liked you and wanted you to be my son, you didn't agree, come back and tell your Xia mother about it, she said that I must be insincere, failed to impress you, and blamed me for throwing one of your children in Qiyun Mountain, for this matter, your Xia mother still cried with me, I have to go back and find you again, every time I have to go to Liucun in the past ten years, I am afraid that I will be complained by your Xia mother when I come back, this is good, it just so happens that Xiao Yi is here today, You kid have to help my uncle explain to me, otherwise this black cauldron will have to be carried for the rest of your life. ”

"Why are you talking about this at this time, eat your food," Xia's mother scolded with a smile.

Hearing him say this, Zou Yi understood that when he first entered the door, Xia Zhilan's mother had to let him call Xia's mother, it turned out that there was such a thing, thinking that she was crying for a child she had never seen before, Zou Yi tried hard to open his eyes, so he didn't let the tears slide down.

"Uncle, why do you want him to be your son?" the little boy asked curiously, just after nibbling on a piece of salt-and-pepper ribs.

"Because I and your uncle both like Xiao Yi," Xia's mother took over with a smile.

Seeing Xia Zhilan leaning against Zou Yi, the little boy said angrily: "But I don't like him, sister, are you in love with him." ”

This question can make the people in the room stunned, Xia Taobai and Xia's mother are smiling, and the old man is thinking about Zou Yi and Xia Zhilan and looked at them, without any expression on their faces, as for Xia Zhilan, Hongxia instantly crawled all over her cheeks, that look is really delicate, Zou Yi is face is embarrassed, just now he also said about his son, this will hook up with other girls, can it not be embarrassing.

"Children's families, what nonsense, your brother Yi and I are classmates, but you are a little guy who has just entered the first year of junior high school, how can you know that you are in love, see if I turn around and don't tell your parents."

Or Xia Zhilan came forward to distract from this matter, the key is that the old father and mother were stunned and didn't speak, and looked at her with a smile, even the old man didn't speak, if it goes on like this, she won't be able to stay at this table.

"What's the big deal, isn't it just holding hands, many girls in the school want to hold hands with me," the little boy said disapprovingly.

Yes, this little guy is still at the stage of holding hands for the concept of falling in love, after hearing this, the atmosphere in the living room became active again for a while, and no one mentioned the topic just now, but Xia Zhilan's eyes were a little more loving when she looked at Zou Yi, and these were all seen by the three elders present.

This meal is a little less embarrassing, a little more warm at home, Zou Yi who eats is warm in his heart, to say this feeling, since his mother died, he has not felt it for more than ten years, during the banquet, Xia's mother really achieved a mother's love for her child, this kind of love can not be given by others except parents, even if it is an old way, the feeling given to him is mostly the concern of the elders for the younger generations, so at this moment, Zou Yi also regarded them as his parents and enjoyed this kind of family fun.
