Zhou Lu carried the gift, followed Xi Qi, and entered the living room.

The decoration and arrangement of the house, antique, there are calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, it seems simple and elegant, there are many books in the bookcase, the furniture is basically made of solid wood, all are the styles of the last century, the faint wood fragrance and the fragrance of the book, lingering in the air, with a sense of age, very bookish taste.

There was a gray-haired old man, with his back to the door of the living room, sitting upright on a wicker chair, flipping through a book.

Xi Qi greeted with a little excitement. "Grandpa, we're back. ”

The gray-haired old man smiled lovingly, put down his book, and turned his head.

His blazing gaze quickly shifted from Xi Qi's face to Zhou Lu.

Carefully looked at Zhou Lu a few times.

He smiled again, his eyes softened, and said to Xi Qi, "Kiki, don't you want to introduce me yet?" ”

Xi Qi took Zhou Lu's hand with one hand, hugged his grandfather's arm with the other, tilted his head, and said with a smile: "This is my grandfather, this is Zhou Lu, the object of this girl!" ”

"Hello Grandpa Xi!"

Zhou Lu bowed slightly to the old man.

Although this old man Xi is old, from the sparkle in his eyes, the frost and fortitude on his face, and the upright posture that he has always maintained, it can be seen that he has been a white-haired old general all his life.

Old Man Xi pointed to the sofa next to him, and said kindly and politely, "Okay, please take a seat." ”

Zhou Lu put aside the gift and sat down according to his words.

"Girl, go to the kitchen and help your mother." Old man Xi said.

"Got it." Xi Qi stuck out her little tongue at Old Man Xi, let go of Grandpa's arm, and ran to the kitchen.

As soon as Xi Qi arrived in front of Old Man Xi, she became like a little girl, very relaxed, and it could be seen that the grandparents and grandchildren were very intimate, and Old Man Xi especially doted on this granddaughter.

The white-haired veteran watched Xi Qi enter the kitchen, looked down at the gift, his eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Those two bottles of liquor, are they twenty-year-old old bai?" ”

"Yes, it's a twenty-year-old white worker."

Zhou Lu replied in the affirmative.

The gift was bought by Xi Qi, but he has seen it himself, otherwise the other party will ask and don't know what to buy, so it will be exposed.

Xi Qi also said that Old Man Xi has a soft spot for aging Lao Baigan.

Zhou Lu calmly bent down and took out a bottle of aged Lao Baigan, some years, but it is not expensive, four or five hundred and one bottles, compared to Moutai, it is cheap, but people have different tastes, and the Baishou veteran is just good at this old Baigan.

Xi Qi said that it was the old general who fought in North Korea back then, with heavy snow and freezing weather, and it was only by relying on a few mouthfuls of old white work that he could survive hard, so he had a soft spot for the rest of his life.

"Do you drink liquor?" Old Man Xi stared at the liquor in Zhou Lu's hand.

"I don't know if it will, but I've never been drunk when I drink, and my friends often call me Little Wine Fairy." Zhou Lu said modestly.

Isn't it necessary to be strong in all aspects, and drinking is also one thing.

"Little Brewmaster? Hahaha, okay, little wine fairy, let's have a drink first? ”

The white-headed veteran laughed loudly, licked his lips, and met his favorite liquor, plus Zhou Lu, a drinking friend, who seemed to be unable to control the wine worm.

Zhou Lu wanted to laugh, the old man's action of licking his lips was like a child seeing his favorite candy, and he actually showed a little cuteness of an old naughty boy.

Old man Xi is approachable and shows his true temperament directly, without showing the shelf and majesty of the big chief.

The precipitation of years and experiences has made him truly distinguish between work and family life.

He now only positions himself as an ordinary grandfather.

Zhou Lu had a great impression of Old Man Xi, and he also let go of his restraints, and agreed: "Okay, let's have a drink first." ”

Zhou Lu opened the lid of the wine bottle, and Old Man Xi went to find the wine glass.

At this time,

The dignified and beautiful woman with an apron walked out: "It's time to eat, let's drink it at the table." ”

Xi Qi followed behind the beautiful woman and winked at Zhou Lu: "Mom, he is Zhou Lu." ”

Zhou Anqing!

has the same surname as herself, but her status in the high-profile bureau is much worse, she is a part-time consultant, and she is the leader of the high-profile bureau.

Before today, I never thought that Xi Qi had such a big background.

I never thought that I would meet a high-profile bureau leader in this situation.

If Xi Qi is really her own female ticket, is this a good thing or a bad thing?

There must be many people who envy to death, and there will be many people who feel that they are not worthy of Xi Qi.

Zhou Lu squeezed out a smile and greeted: "Hello Auntie!" ”

"Well, let's eat."

Zhou Anqing didn't have much expression, and responded casually, like a housewife, beckoning everyone to eat.

The Xi family treats people very equally, and Uncle Qiang, Uncle Du, and the nanny can also eat together at the dining table.

Their expressions are natural and they have long been accustomed to it, but everyone will wait for the old man to move the chopsticks before starting, as a sign of respect for the elders.

This made Zhou Lu particularly surprised.

The Xi family has such a family style, which is naturally inseparable from the example of the old man Xi.

Zhou Lu couldn't help but have more respect for Old Man Zuo.

sighed in my heart, how good it would be if I had such a grandfather. It doesn't matter what kind of identity you are on the outside, even if you are an ordinary farmer.

Not only does he lack the love of his father and mother, but also the love of his grandparents and grandparents, and he is quite envious of the admiration shown by Old Man Xi and Xi Qi.

This kind of love, no matter how much money you use, can't get it.

Next.

After eating a small bowl of rice, Old Man Xi proposed to drink.

Zhou Lu naturally did not refuse.

Coupled with Xi Qi's lubrication, Zhou Lu and Old Man Xi tasted wine together, talked and laughed, one old and one young, they got along very well when they met for the first time.

Xi Qi was amazed.

She knew that Zhou Lu could speak, but she didn't expect Zhou Lu to be able to say so, not only knowledgeable, but also profound, and he was a favorite of the ancient history and major battles of Old Man Xi, Zhou Lu actually spoke the truth, and gave unique insights, which was frequently praised by Old Man Xi.

You can talk about anything.

Is this still a high school student?

Anyway, I've found the right person!

What Xi Qi didn't know was that Zhou Lu temporarily "studied" a few related books.

It's useless to cramm temporarily, but it's very useful to find a system temporarily.

Until this time, Uncle Qiang and Uncle Du, who were vigilant, gradually relaxed their tense nerves, smiled, and sometimes interjected a sentence or two.

They are impressed, this young man, all-round talent in civil and military affairs!

The future is limitless!

I didn't expect Xi Qi to be nervous, boy-like, and very discerning in finding a partner, but he was a little younger.

Zhou Anqing doesn't talk much, neither salty nor light, and is quite polite to Zhou Lu, but this kind of politeness is also a kind of distance.

She doesn't have a feeling of being optimistic about Zhou Lu and her mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at it, the more she likes it.

She didn't want to see Zhou Lu, none of Zhou Lu's identity, family background, experience, etc. met her requirements, especially her family background, and she had arrangements for her daughter.

But Xi Qi told her that she had cooked raw rice with Zhou Lu, and everything that should be done was done!

As a result, Zhou Anqing had to meet in person.
