"Please come in, the place is a little small." Shang Tan'an opened the door.

Scarlet smiled and didn't make a sound. Just after the elevator was sent to this floor, there was a long road with doors on both sides, and it was obvious that there were a lot of people living in it.

She stepped in, her eyes subconsciously looked at the room, it seemed that it was a small living room, the furnishings were simple, and it was very clean, but it also relieved the cramped feeling a little.

"Xiao An, what are you running down for?" An old lady in a half-jacket came out of the next room.

Scarlet was stunned, silently reciting the title of Xiao An in her heart, and secretly surprised that Shang Tan'an's nickname was called until now?

"This is Grandma Li." Shang Tan'an looked slightly embarrassed, turned to the old lady and introduced, "Grandma Li, this is my classmate, surnamed Yan." ”

"Happy New Year, Grandma Li." Scarlet folded her hands, bowed respectfully, and raised her eyes to the old man and pursed the corners of her mouth. Her greeting was deliberately soft, and this look brought out a little girl-like softness, Shang Tan'an was holding a large gift box beside her, and couldn't help but glance at her.

The old lady stared at Scarlet for a long time, and when she heard the words, her wrinkles narrowed when she laughed, and she moved out of the stool enthusiastically: "Okay, good, Miss Yan, you also have a good New Year." It's rare for Xiao An to have a female classmate come over to play, Miss Yan, sit down. ”

"Thank you, Grandma Li."

"Xiao An, make some honey water for Miss Yan." The old lady was busy directing Shang Tan'an again.

Shang Tan sighed, looked at the excited Grandma Li, and then at Xiuya sitting upright, pressed the stomach full of doubts, and went to the kitchen.

"Miss Yan, are you and Xiao An classmates now, or classmates in the early years?" The old lady sat down next to the scarlet and said curiously.

"We're all from the East Research Institute."

"Oh, yes. Miss Yan, are you also from our Mobi? That's a coincidence. ”

"Grandma Li, classmate Yan, drink a glass of honey water." Shang Tan'an came over with two cups and apologized slightly to Scarlet, "Only this, you can taste it." ”

The cup is very ordinary, porcelain white, and most of the cup is reddish-brown liquid, and I can't tell which plant juices are blended. She didn't move, took a sip, and immediately tasted that this drink could not be natural and pure raw plant juice.

"It's sweet." She looked up and smiled.

Grandma Li was very happy and greeted: "Miss Yan, drink more, this is what Xiao An bought, he said that he should drink something sweet and sweet in the New Year." ”

Scarlet gaze swept over Shang Tan'an, took another sip in the old lady's expectant eyes, and smiled gently at the old lady.

"Miss Yan, are you far away? Tired all the way, right? ”

"Grandma Li, you can also drink some honey water." Shang Tan'an interjected.

"Oh...... Oh," the old lady hurriedly got up as if she remembered something, "Xiao An, you talk to Miss Yan, I have something to do in the kitchen." ”

Scarlet watched the old lady turn into a small door, raised her eyes to look at Shang Tan'an, and couldn't guess who this grandmother was, she maintained an elegant smile, and organized language in her heart.

"The home is simple, and there is nothing to entertain you." Shang Tan'an dragged over the chair and sat down opposite Scarlet.

"Good." Scarlet replied, paused, and was about to open her mouth to say hello, but saw the old lady smile and turn out again: "Xiao An, I remember, I want to go to Xiaoqiang Xiaohua's house to say something, and ask them to go to see the lights themselves." ”

"Oh...... Good. ”

"Miss Yan, you sit, I'll go next door and say something." The old lady said happily, and glanced meaningfully at Scarlet and Shang Tan'an twice before she was reluctant to open the door and go out.

Shang Tan'an knew what Grandma Li was thinking, and couldn't help but feel embarrassed and helpless.

"You made an appointment to go to see the lights with someone?" Scarlet glanced at Shang Tan'an, "I'm sorry, I came abruptly." ”

"I don't have anything to do, I'm just idle at home, and the neighbors pull me out to watch the excitement." Shang Tan'an straightened his expression and chatted casually, "There are a lot of celebrations in the administrative district these days, classmate Yan, have you been there?" ”

"Nope." Scarlet shook her head and asked, "The rest of your family has gone out?" ”

"I live with Grandma Li," Shang Tan'an said, "My parents have passed away. ”

Scarlet couldn't help but widen her eyes, and it took a while to realize that she was out of shape, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry," but she still couldn't help it, "Grandma Nali is your ......"

"Grandma Li is my neighbor, when my parents passed away, I was not old enough to apply for housing alone, Grandma Li used to live alone, she kindly offered to take care of me, and we moved in together, until now."

Scarlet was stunned when she heard this, she couldn't imagine that Shang Tan'an and her life experience were similar, and she felt invisibly cordial in her heart, her eyes turned slightly, and she basically saw the layout of this small house, and her eyebrows were very soft, Guan asked: "Then you live like this, are you used to it?" I mean, it's a neighbor after all. ”

"Habit, Grandma Li is very good." Shang Tan'an smiled gently, Miss Yan may not have heard of the neighborhood mutual aid plan in the housing management of the lower six districts at all, "We here, if the children are too young, or the elderly are too old to live alone, as long as there are close neighbors or relatives who are willing to live together, there is no need to go to a welfare institution, and the people who help take care of it will also get more social contribution points accordingly, and the area of the house can also be increased, so the situation of neighbors living together is not only me, they get along very well, and if they live for a long time, it is equivalent to one more relative." ”

Scarlet nodded: "That's not bad." She paused for a long time, secretly settled in her heart, raised her eyes to stare at Shang Tan'an and asked, "You just talked about the performance activities in the administrative district, do you still want to watch it?" It just so happens that I haven't been there either. ”

Shang Tan'an froze for a moment, looking at the scarlet eyes, and his mouth was hard to answer.

"If you want to go, I'll book a restaurant now, and we'll go over and have dinner first, and then we can have a good stroll after dinner." Do you want to eat our authentic dishes or exotic? Scarlet planned it earnestly.

"Oh, I...... Still at home. Shang Tan'an smiled modestly and explained, "I've been in the research institute and have very little time at home, so I want to spend more time with the elderly and help do something." ”

"That'...... Don't watch the show, just eat, can you take time? Just look for a specialty restaurant in your Xueli area. Scarlet asked hopefully, "I haven't eaten yet, and you haven't eaten either, have you?" ”

Shang Tan'an became more and more confused, why did Miss Yan come to invite dinner from time to time? "Where's your family?" He sneered slightly, "Are you too busy to accompany you out to crowd people?" ”

"I don't have any family, I'm the only one." Scarlet said calmly.

Shang Tan'an was so surprised that he looked at Scarlet again and again, blurting out that he didn't have a family member, but fortunately he stopped his mouth. In this way, it makes sense, he took the order and went to her house for two days, and he only saw her alone for two days. Shang Tan'an thought about the large area of Yan's house, looking at the big eyes that were staring at him tightly, her heart flashed, could it be that she was lonely and bored for the New Year alone, and went out to find acquaintances to spend time, so she slightly regretted that she refused too directly just now.
