Chapter 146: Old Man
The old house, the appliances and furniture in it are old, some years old.
The windows weren't opened, and the smell inside the room was a bit big.
Gu Liuhua took a look, there was only a pair of men's shoes at the door, and there was a cup on the coffee table in the living room that was commonly used, and the remaining three cups were all covered with thick dust, obviously the old man lived alone.
It could be seen that the old man liked Ouyang Yi very much, so she didn't rush to ask.
The old man pulled Ouyang Yi to chat, Gu Liuhua was also listening, Bai Qi was a little bored, and he couldn't sit still.
It's a bit messy, there's a strange smell in the air, and the bench is so hard that he can't sit down.
He wanted to go out for a walk, but when he saw the old man pulling Ouyang Yi to speak, he couldn't find a chance to interject, and wanted to pull Gu Liu, but Gu Liuhua was obviously listening to the old man, so he had to endure it.
The old man just started to say a few words to Bai Qi and Gu Liuhua, and then he told Ouyang Yi, forgetting both of them, and when he remembered it, the old man got up and went to the refrigerator to get milk.
White took the milk and said thank you.
Seeing that the carton of milk was a little old, he subconsciously looked at the expiration date and said in surprise: "This milk is expired!" ”
The sound was a bit loud, Ouyang Yi heard it, took the milk and looked at it, it was indeed expired.
Ouyang Yi sat next to the old man with the milk, "Uncle Zhou, this milk has expired, you will get sick if you drink it, don't drink it." ”
Uncle Zhou took it and looked at it, "Hey...... I can't see it and I don't know it's expired. ”
His eyes were full of sadness, he was old, his eyes were dazzled when he got older, and he couldn't see the words with such a small expiration date, "I originally thought that I would give you a drink when you came, drinking milk is good for your health, you exercise regularly, you have to drink more milk, but I didn't expect it to expire......"
The old man's voice was a little regretful, but it was very flat, but Gu Liuhua felt a little sour in his heart when he heard it.
This old man should have a very good relationship with Ouyang Yi, and he kept milk for him, but he didn't expect Ouyang Yi to come over for so long, and the milk expired.
It's just that the old man may not know that the shelf life of this milk is half a year.
In other words, the person he was waiting for hadn't come to see him for half a year.
The old man is like an old man waiting for his child to come home, and his deep thoughts are hidden in faint words.
Bai Qi also realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing, and he didn't know what to do, so he heard Gu Liuhua say: "Uncle Zhou, I can't drink milk, I'll drink water, I'll pour water." ”
Uncle Zhou originally wanted to stop her, but no guest came over and did it himself, but he was stopped by Ouyang Yi and Bai Qi.
Gu Liuhua washed a few cups, then brought everyone a glass of water, took out pears and grapes from his backpack, washed them, peeled them, cut them, put them on a plate and brought them out.
"Uncle Zhou, I didn't bring anything with me, this is the fruit I grew myself, you can taste it."
When Bai Qi heard her say that the fruit was grown by herself, he couldn't help but do it, but Uncle Zhou didn't exercise, so he urged him on the side, "Uncle Zhou, the fruits grown by Gu Liuhua are all natural and pollution-free, and they taste very good, you can try them." ”
As he spoke, he took a small piece of pear and handed it to the old man's mouth, Uncle Zhou resisted a little, "People are old, their teeth are not good, and they can't eat hard things." ”
"It's okay, just take it in your mouth and suck the juice."
The old man no longer resisted, the pears were cut into small pieces, and they were crispy and sweet, and he could actually eat them.
The old men were so happy that they swallowed the pears, and the white chess handed over the grapes and did not refuse.
The grape juice is abundant, and it is sweet, without sourness, and it is very delicious.
White saw that the old man ate it, and he did it himself.
Gu Liuhua, who was next to him, saw that he was moving a little fast, and looked at him with a smile, until the sign in Bai Qi's hand did not withdraw his gaze.
A few people ate and drank, and sat for an afternoon, and the old man saw that it was almost dark, so he stood up in surprise, "Oh, it's so late!" Xiao Yi, you're so busy, and I'm delaying you so much, it's really ......"
"Uncle Zhou, I'm not busy, I'm on vacation today."
"Ah...... Holiday? Don't lie to me, you kids! You're usually the busiest, when do you have a holiday? Go back quickly, and don't delay your work. It's hard to find a job right now, so don't lose your job because of me. ”
Ouyang Yi grabbed the old man's hand, "Uncle Zhou, I really have a holiday today, I've been working for so long, and the company doesn't give me a day off, how can any company be so disagreeable." ”
"Really?" The old man asked a little disbelievingly.
Bai Qi also grabbed the person and helped him down, "Uncle Zhou, I am his colleague, I can assure you about this, Ouyang is really on vacation today." ”
With the two of them guaranteeing together, Uncle Zhou believed it.
The old man was afraid that he would delay the child's work and make the child embarrassed, so he never dared to let him come to see him, even if he wanted to, he would only secretly help him prepare milk until it expired.
Uncle Zhou's surname is Zhou, and he shouldn't be from the Ouyang family, but he is like this, obviously treating Ouyang Yi as his own child.
Gu Liuhua's eyes were a little astringent, and she stood up, "Uncle Zhou, you sit, I'll cook for you, these are all green vegetables I grew myself, and they taste good." ”
"Good, good."
After a dinner, until half past seven in the evening, Uncle Zhou wanted to drive the three of them away.
Gu Liuhua's heart was a little tight.
Uncle Zhou was worried that they would delay their work, afraid of delaying their rest, and desperately drove people out.
Before leaving, Gu Liuhua finally said the purpose of today's visit, Uncle Zhou has worked in geological exploration for more than 40 years, and is very familiar with National Geographic.
Gu Liuhua went back with the answer, and at the same time left some space for vegetables and fruits to grow in the kitchen and refrigerator.
On the return trip, Gu Liuhua went back in Ouyang Yi's car, the two went smoothly, and Bai Qi drove back by himself.
"In the future, I would like to buy some vegetables and fruits from you every week." Ouyang Yi, who was driving and looking ahead, said.
Ouyang Yi is also an immortal cultivator, and he should have seen that the fruits and vegetables she produced can strengthen his body when eaten, so he specially singled it out and said that it was because of Uncle Zhou.
Gu Liuhua nodded in agreement.
Although this person is not related to her, he let himself see the shadow of the old man who paid silently.
She didn't do it for her own peace of mind, she just did what she could.
When Gu Liuhua returned to Jiang's house, Jiang Tong was sitting straight in the restaurant, with dinner in front of him that had not moved, and his dishes and chopsticks had not been moved.
Seeing Gu Liuhua coming back, he swept over coldly.
"You don't come back for dinner, and you don't know how to call back and say something? Dinner is made so much, for whom? Although the Jiang family is rich, is it appropriate for you to waste it so much? ”
