"Ding Dong", Lan Eucalyptus rang the doorbell at the door of her grandparents' house, but no one came to open the door for a long time, and the beautiful melody sound from the crack in the door was in her ears, isn't this "Blue Danube"?

The violin played gently with a broken bow, like the dawn of dawn breaking through the mist on the river, and the eucalyptus and the music melted together, when the door suddenly opened, and an old lady who was elegant to the bone marrow stood in front of the eucalyptus.

"Grandma!" Lan Eucalyptus coquettishly threw herself into the arms of the old man who looked like a girl,

"My eucalyptus is back! Come on in! Grandma's kind face bloomed into a flower, even the wrinkles were shining, her silver hair reflected her slightly powdered face, and a dark red cheongsam could not hide her elegant and gentle temperament.
