Following.

According to the agreement, Huo Jingyun took Lian Xiao to the No. 1 compound.

The security guard quickly raised the railing when he saw the license plate from a distance, and when he arrived closer, he didn't forget to smile and remind, "Come in, the old man called me three times in the morning." ”

Under the half-slick window, Huo Jingyun seemed to be in a good mood, and nodded slightly, "Thank you, Uncle Zhou." ”

A glimpse of the car revealed a half-slender silhouette, but the car quickly drove into the avenue and disappeared at the end of the camphor tree.

"Eh, isn't the old man of the Huo family not waiting to see this eldest grandson, how did he change his sex today?" Other families came over to take a curious look.

This kind of compound is generally a fixed population, and everyone knows what is going on in every household.

"I don't know, I see that there are still people in the car, maybe they are relatives." Uncle Zhou, the doorman, didn't gossip either, and after speaking, he slipped back to the security room, feeling in his heart that the two of them were really the same character.

If you are in a good mood, the rain will pass and the sky will be clear, and you will not enter at all.

The last small bungalow is still the same, hidden under the camphor tree, quiet and comfortable, it is indeed a good place for the elderly.

The driver got out of the car and wanted to open the door for the girl in the back seat, but he saw Huo Jingyun on the other end coming around faster, and reached out to take the food box in the girl's hand, holding the car frame with one hand, "Be careful." ”

That gentle tone has made the driver feel that the owner of the family has changed his core since yesterday.

Lian Xiao got out of the car, and was immediately naturally held by the person next to him, and walked towards the bronze gate of the garden.

The door that used to be closed was open this time, and before I entered the house, I saw the gray-haired old man sitting in the courtyard and laughed loudly, "Even the girl, you are here, I look forward to the long neck." ”

Looking at the familiar voice and smile from afar, even the smile standing outside the door is in a trance, those times of laughter and laughter in the cowshed come to mind, and the closeness and admiration seem to be still yesterday.

"Grandpa Huo." She walked briskly and half-crouched on the old man's lap, "Are you okay?" ”

"Okay, okay, you've grown up too." Huo Lao put his hand on the top of her head and stroked it gently, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows unconsciously softened, "Last time you went to the Capital Hotel, we missed it, and I dreamed of you for a few days when I came back." ”

The old man has a hard temper all his life, and he is very strict with his children and even his grandson Huo Jingyun, but when he is old, he gives all his tenderness to the girl in front of him.

Lian Xiao took his eyes away from the furrow on the old man's face, blinked his sour eyes, pursed his lips and smiled: "I came and went in a hurry last time, and I didn't come to see you, so I prepared something for you in the morning." ”

She said, holding out her hand.

Huo Jingyun naturally handed over the food box.

"I heard that you were sick in the summer and your appetite has been bad, so I made some chicken porridge in the morning." Lian Xiao said as he opened the food box and took out the delicate dishes, chopsticks and porridge inside.

On a cool autumn morning, the porridge in the bowl is still steaming, and the taste of the medicinal food has been carefully processed, only the chicken and mushrooms are faintly sweet.

Old Man Huo read this mouthful, and immediately chatted while scooping a spoon at the table, and actually ate two bowls at once, and stood up and walked around several times.

Lian Xiao joked on the side, "Grandpa Huo, I still want to make a Buddha jumping over the wall at noon, can you still eat it?" ”

Hearing this, Huo Lao, who was still holding his stomach, immediately lit up his eyes, "Eat, then you have to eat, I finally caught you once, I can't let you go like this." ”

As a result, before lunch, a few uninvited guests came outside the house.

Of course, this is relative to Old Man Huo.

"Grandpa Zhang, Grandpa Zhou, Grandpa Xu!" At that time, the three grandparents and grandchildren were still in the yard, and when Lian Xiao saw the gate, he immediately burst out in surprise.

The three old men outside the door walked around, shouting and laughing affectionately, and looked at Huo Lao at the same time, "Yo, look at what that face has turned black." I said Lao Huo, even the girl is our little padded jacket, why do you still bring something private, if I hadn't heard the Liu family kid say, I wouldn't have known that people were coming. ”

Old Man Huo was also not polite at all, dropped the chess pieces in his hand, and hummed: "Who is from your family, even the girl is my future granddaughter-in-law, what are you doing to make a fuss." ”

"Hehe, it's hard to say that this is not decided." Several old men sat down cheekily, sniffled and immediately smelled the fragrance emanating from the room, and immediately decided to stay for lunch, which made Old Man Huo angry enough.

The autumn was high and refreshing, and Lian Xiao prepared the ingredients almost as well, so he took out the autumn pear paste that he had transported into the capital at the same time and flushed it and sent it to a few people in the yard.

"Eh, this feels so good, it's like it's back in the cowshed." Several people drank the sweet pear paste water and couldn't help but sigh, "At that time, the days were a little bitter, but after returning to Beijing, there was no even a girl to eat, and it always tasted wrong." ”

In addition to craftsmanship, the time when they were huddled together in the winter and drank warm soup and had fun was also missed by several old people.

Looking back at the pair of young people sitting in the corner next to him, at this time the handsome young man in black was lowering his head and wiping the girl's hands with a handkerchief, and the two leaned together and whispered softly, also envious of others.

"Jingyun, this kid has a good temperament, and he doesn't have any twists and turns from the beginning."

Old Man Huo followed the words of a few people, the corners of his eyes slanted, he didn't know what to think of, and said lightly or seriously: "I heard that a while ago, the girl of the Lang family disappeared in Shekou." ”

There was a moment of silence on the table.

After all, it is no secret that he is one of the most famous people in the capital.

Huo Jingyun felt that the girl's slender fingertips were a little stiff and wanted to shrink back, his hands were slightly forced, and he continued to move gently and irresistibly, and responded without raising his head: "Well, I met a robber when I went to sea, and the case has been closed." ”

His voice was cold, as if he were talking about a stranger.

Lian Xiaowei tilted his head to look at him, but he didn't even see the slightest excess emotion.

Old Man Huo closed his eyes, didn't know whether he believed it or not, and sighed, "It's a pity." ”

The other people at the table echoed a few words, and the topic was hurriedly revealed, these old men were all in high positions, their hearts and eyes were twisted and bent, and they would not meddle even if they saw something.

After a while, the next car stopped outside the hospital, and two figures got out of the car, and before they could get closer, they were recognized by Lian Xiao.

"Professor Liu, Professor Chen?"

That's right, the person who came was Liu Chengzhang and Chen Lilou, who had a relationship with the Beijing Hotel.

"Hehe, I happened to be at Lao Chen's place early in the morning, and when I heard that you were here, I thought about taking a look." Liu Chengzhang came out to take the lead, and found an excuse that was obviously a goof.

Who's okay to visit early in the morning.

Several old people in the courtyard were very unhappy to see him now because they had an unpleasant quarrel with Chen Lilou in the hotel last time.

can't stand this guy's lively brain, and grasp Chen Xiaodong's identity when he is still under Liu Chengzhang, it really makes Lian Xiao difficult to drive people away.

In the end, it was Old Man Huo who snorted coldly and let people go, "If you want to eat, just say it clearly, and do these ghost tricks." ”
