It's just that I didn't expect the old man to laugh like a child after listening to his uncle's grandmother's half-true complaint: "What's that, I think this kid drinks tea and tastes good, it's quite similar to me." ”

As he spoke, the old man actually took the teapot and added a little tea to Zhen Jiabao's cup, Zhen Jiabao immediately held the cup with his hand and almost knelt down for the old man.

Which one is this?

The old lady looked at Zhen Jiabao's nervous appearance and patted her back with a smile, and didn't explain, just said: "Don't look at your grandfather's serious face, in fact, he is happy that you can come over." ”

Zhen Jiabao listened to the old lady's words but didn't believe it, since he entered the old man's courtyard, Zhen Jiabao was uncomfortable, and always felt that the old man didn't know when he was going to lose his temper with him.

Zhen Jiabao sneaked a glance at the old man, but happened to bump into the old man who happened to be looking at him, and the eyes of the two of them were a little embarrassed after they collided together.

The old man coughed lightly: "You brought this little girl over today to laugh at me?" ”

The old lady restrained the smile on her face, straightened her expression and said to the old man seriously: "This is not my heart as a younger brother and sister, it's just that it's not a good thing for you to call these two children back on the cusp of this storm, you don't know how much this child has been wronged in the past two days." ”

The old lady is starting to complain to herself again, although Zhen Jiabao feels that she has indeed been mentally tortured in the Zheng family in the past two days, but if Zhen Jiabao is allowed to choose, she would rather suffer those tortures and deal with the messy relatives of the Zheng family than face the current situation.

What if it really makes the old man feel that he is selling miserable and pretending to be pitiful? Zhen Jiabao felt that although he had indeed endured the unwarranted flattery and temptation of a group of people led by his fourth aunt in the past two days, he had indeed not been wronged in the past.

So Zhen Jiabao immediately waved his hand and smiled reluctantly: "What my uncle and grandmother said is an exaggeration, although I have just come into contact with those things that are preparing for the birthday banquet, but these are all things I should do, so there is no grievance at all." ”

The more Zhen Jiabao carefully cleared up the relationship, the more the old lady felt sorry for her, and looked at the old man as if to say: "Just look, what has this child been wronged into." ”

The old man looked at Zhen Jiabao and pouted his head a little embarrassedly, and the beard on his lips trembled.

"I know in my heart, the two of them are called back by me, who can really have the courage to blatantly bully the Zheng family? It's just some careful thinking, and it's not like you and I haven't seen it. ”

Why can't you stand this little girl? The old man secretly glanced at Zhen Jiabao again, and then quickly deviated from his gaze and stopped looking at it angrily.

The old lady sighed deeply: "That's what I said, but after so many years, you and that kid haven't been much closer, do you know what they were thinking when they suddenly called him back this year." ”

The old man listened to the old lady's complaints, but he just took a sip of the teacup, and put on a big attitude that it was not about himself.

As soon as my uncle and grandmother saw the old man's appearance of not getting oil and salt, she knew that he must have a plan in her heart, and she didn't dare to persuade him further, after all, there was something about the Zheng family's management and family property

Only the head of the family has the power to decide, even if she has a good relationship with the old man, she has no chance to speak.

"That's fine, I know that the eldest brother must have his own thoughts in his heart, but no matter what, I have to make it clear first - no matter what the eldest brother thinks in his heart, don't wronged that child."

After hearing this, the old man suddenly put down the teacup in his hand, and the bottom of the finely made white porcelain cup made a crisp sound when it touched the saucer, and the old man slowly half-closed his eyelids, and his expression suddenly became ethereal.

“…… Why hasn't the meal been cooked yet? How long has it been. ”

Zhen Jiabao originally thought that the old man was going to respond to his uncle's grandmother's words, but she either couldn't hear the meaning of his uncle's grandmother's words, or she was persuading the old man not to let Helian Quan be wronged, and she was looking forward to the old man's response.

It's just that I didn't expect the old man to pause for a while but only hold back such a sentence, which almost made the cup in Zhen Jiabao's hand fall.

But the old man turned a blind eye to Zhen Jiabao's big fall, and got up and went to his small kitchen to urge the chef to speed up, obviously avoiding what his uncle and grandmother said just now.

Seeing this, my uncle and grandmother couldn't persuade her any further, so she could only exhale softly and put her old hand on Zhen Jiabao's lap and patted it twice as comfort.

Zhen Jiabao smiled bitterly, and he didn't understand what kind of thoughts and attitudes the old man had towards himself and Helianquan, or what the old man's purpose was for calling himself and Helianquan to the Zheng family this time.

The old lady and Zhen Jiabao were left by the old man to eat a light meal with him, after all, the old man is old, and now there are some precursors of diabetes, so the meals cooked in the kitchen are very light, Zhen Jiabao eats extremely painful - in addition to being unaccustomed to eating, but also accepting the complicated eyes that the old man throws at him from time to time, Zhen Jiabao is simply walking on thin ice, and he doesn't dare to raise his head at all.

This meal was not very cheerful, Zhen Jiabao was still eating a dish that could be regarded as tasteless in her opinion, and the old man over there took care of his chopsticks, and he could guess that the old man's mood must not be good.

But isn't it, the sound when he swiped the chopsticks almost made Zhen Jiabao's hands tremble.

"I'm done."

As soon as the old man said this, Zhen Jiabao hurriedly put down the chopsticks in his hand and wiped his mouth: "I have eaten too." ”

The old lady glanced at Zhen Jiabao's rice bowl with an imperceptible smile on her face - there was at least half a bowl of brown rice left in it, but looking at the expression on Zhen Jiabao's face, she would definitely not eat another bite.

"Big brother, you see that this child's eating habits are similar to yours, I heard that this child likes spicy food and has a heavier taste, isn't it similar to you."

Uncle and grandmother saw that Zhen Jiabao was brushing Zhen Jiabao's favorability in front of the old man, and Zhen Jiabao glanced at the old man in slight surprise - it turned out that the old man was unhappy because he didn't like to eat these things?

The old man still seemed to be in a bad mood, and snorted lightly: "So what, I can't eat what I like to eat now, you bring this girl to me here, you have to follow me to suffer, it's better to bring people back as soon as possible." ”

Zhen Jiabao has a few black lines hanging down his forehead—

- Why does this old man's temper change when he says it changes?

The old lady didn't eat the old man at all, and after eating the food in the bowl in front of her slowly, she wiped her mouth elegantly, stood up and didn't say anything about talking to the old man after the meal, and left with Zhen Jiabao directly when she saw this.

I don't know what's going on, it's obvious that the old man first had the intention of letting the old lady and Zhen Jiabao leave, but the old lady wanted to take Zhen Jiabao out of here, but the old man stood up from his seat, as if he wanted to keep but couldn't open his mouth, and looked at his uncle and grandmother speechless.

"What's the matter, big brother, but it's just a matter of these few steps, why do you send us, this girl and I also happened to take a walk after dinner to eliminate food."

The old lady stuffed Zhen Jiabao's hand to her side and clamped it with her arm, Zhen Jiabao was difficult to adapt to the habits of getting along between the two old men for a while, so she was taken away by the old lady in a dilemma, and just nodded with the old man in a hurry before leaving.

It wasn't until he was taken away from the old man's yard that Zhen Jiabao asked tentatively: "Uncle and grandmother, I always feel that my grandfather is not very happy that you took me over today, isn't this a little good." ”

Zhen Jiabao was worried that his and his uncle's grandmother's unauthorized actions would provoke the old man to complain about him and Helian Quan, but the old lady waved her hand so that Zhen Jiabao didn't have to worry.

"Big brother, he has always been like this, he has been awkward by himself for so many years, I know the severity."

Zhen Jiabao was relieved at this time, but he was more and more worried about the days after Helian Quan came to the Zheng family.

My uncle and grandmother took Zhen Jiabao for a long time today, and now I am a little out of spirit and want to go back to rest, so I let Zhen Jiabao send me back to my residence first, and then let Zhen Jiabao go back to handle the birthday banquet with my aunt alone.

Zhen Jiabao watched his uncle and grandmother lie on the bed before leaving with peace of mind, but when he left his uncle and grandmother's residence, he encountered an uninvited guest.

The Zheng Cheng, who had already met, was standing on the way Zhen Jiabao went out, waiting for Zhen Jiabao with an unkind face.

Zhen Jiabao knew at a glance that Zheng Cheng must be deliberately waiting to block himself, and look at his face...... Zhen Jiabao secretly clenched his fists, for fear that Zheng Cheng would suddenly do something drastic to himself.

And even if Zheng Cheng didn't want to do it to himself, he definitely didn't have any kindness, Zhen Jiabao felt the cold aura emanating from Zheng Cheng's body, and took it seriously with a spirit of 120,000 points.

"It seems that you are really well-intentioned, and I am really flattered that I am waiting here for fear that I will not notice you."

Zhen Jiabao made a preemptive move, and in order to maintain his momentum, he first opened his mouth and said to Zheng Cheng with a smile.

Zheng Cheng didn't take Zhen Jiabao's words, but frowned and stared at Zhen Jiabao's smiling face seriously.

"You shouldn't come to the Zheng family, grandpa, he's old, even if he makes an idea, he shouldn't hit grandpa."

Zhen Jiabao listened to Zheng Cheng's words, even people who don't have a long head should be able to hear Zheng Cheng's meaning - this is clearly saying that the reason why Zhen Jiabao came to the Zheng family is because of the power and wealth of the Zheng family.

Zhen Jiabao was about to be laughed at, he had long heard that Zheng Cheng had been raised by the old man's side since he was a child, and it seemed that he really "cared" about the old man.
