Chapter Seventy-One: Father

Seeing the changes in his body, Ye Yuanzheng was more convinced of what the old monk said, and cherished the only day left with his family more and more, and then Ye Yuanzheng hurriedly took off his coat, changed into home clothes, and hurried out.

As soon as he went out, he happened to run into his grandson Ye Bin, and then pulled Ye Bin over, rubbed Ye Bin's face with his chin full of silver whiskers, and said: "Grandpa will cook tonight, let you taste grandpa's craftsmanship, tell me what you want to eat tonight, what to eat, don't say grandpa will not let you go." As he spoke, Ye Yuanzheng then increased the intensity of the friction.

Ye Bin, whose face was itchy with his beard, hurriedly begged for mercy, "Oh, grandpa, grandpa, my own grandfather, you can let me go, I said, I can't do it!" ”

As soon as Ye Yuanzheng let go of Ye Bin, Ye Bin began to talk eloquently, "That puffer fish meat is good, and what kind of foie gras, you can also try some caviar......"

Without waiting to finish speaking, Ye Yuanzheng pulled Ye Bin over again, pressed him under his cheek and rubbed it, this time Ye Yuanzheng no matter how fierce Ye Bin screamed, Ye Yuanzheng did not have the slightest intention of stopping.

It wasn't until Ye Bin said the names of a few dishes under Ye Yuanzheng's suppression that Ye Yuanzheng reluctantly let go of Ye Bin, and Ye Bin saw that he finally broke free from the clutches of the devil, and then he didn't know where to run around with smoke under his feet.

And Ye Yuanzheng was very reluctant to see Ye Bin's figure gradually moving away, and at the same time touched his stubble, and said to himself: "Xiaobin, I hope that in a few years, grandpa will be able to continue to hold you." ”

Then, Ye Yuanzheng closed his eyes, bit his cheeks, took a deep breath, and then looked up before exhaling a mouthful of turbid breath in his chest.

During Ye Yuanzheng's sigh, Ye Zhengguo and his wife also happened to change their clothes and came out of the house, the three of them met, Ye Yuanzheng asked the two of them what they wanted to eat at night, but the two couples obviously didn't want the old man to overwork, so they symbolically said one or two dishes and stopped talking.

And Ye Yuanzheng just smiled and shook his head, so he was no longer reluctant, but turned around and began to greet the servants around him, and began to prepare and buy the ingredients needed for various dishes.

Ye Zhengguo watched Ye Yuanzheng busy all afternoon, and it was not until six or seven o'clock in the evening that a servant asked Ye Zhengguo and them to go down to eat.

When Ye Zhengguo went downstairs, he happened to see Ye Yuanzheng wearing an apron, without the help of a servant, going in and out of the kitchen again and again, bringing out plates of fragrant hot dishes.

Seeing this scene, Ye Zhengguo hurriedly ran downstairs, took the initiative to help Ye Yuanzheng serve food, and reproached the servant and said: "What are you doing standing stupidly, won't you come over to help!" ”

As soon as they heard Ye Zhengguo's slightly angry voice, those servants immediately looked at Ye Zhengguo with slightly innocent eyes, Ye Zhengguo was stunned, only to hear his father Ye Yuanzheng suddenly said: "Hehe, no, no, don't get started, I'll come alone, just now I said I don't need their help, but for the trivial matter of cooking and serving dishes, I haven't reached my seventies or eighties, and I'm still moving." ”

Subsequently, under Ye Yuanzheng's persuasion, Ye Zhengguo reluctantly sat on the seat, watching Ye Yuanzheng bring up a plate of food, and his daughter-in-law Xiaohe and grandson Ye Bin also reluctantly sat on the seat after Ye Yuanzheng's dissuasion.

After a few minutes, after Ye Yuanzheng prepared the meal, he sent the servants around the restaurant away, and Ye Zhengguo looked at it, and the table was filled with dozens of dishes, Ye Zhengguo couldn't help but look at his father Ye Yuanzheng with strange eyes.

There is no other reason, although the Ye family is wealthy, Ye Yuanzheng has always been trained to be diligent and thrifty, and he has always acted like this, although the expenses are large, he will never waste a porridge or a meal.

However, Ye Yuanzheng has been diligent and thrifty for decades, why is it that the meals he made by himself this time are filled with more than a dozen plates?

They only have four mouths in the family, which will definitely not be able to eat, and most of them will be wasted. And he and his wife were worried that Ye Yuanzheng would be overworked, so one of them just said one or two dishes symbolically, and now they all appeared on the dinner table, they were not surprised, but what about those extra dishes?

Just when Ye Zhengguo was looking at him in private, Ye Zhengguo suddenly locked his eyes on his son Ye Bin, and when Ye Bin saw Ye Zhengguo's eyes began to sharpen, Ye Bin was a little weak-hearted, and took the initiative to say without self-confession: "I don't blame me, my grandfather forced me, and, and I only said a few dishes, not so much." ”

The more Ye Bin spoke, the lower his head became, and he was almost buried in his chest, Ye Yuanzheng felt a little sorry for his grandson, and immediately excused Ye Bin: "Don't blame Xiaobin, I insisted on what Xiaobin said, and besides, some dishes were what Zhengguo loved to eat when you were a child, so I thought about making it." After saying this, Ye Yuanzheng looked at Ye Zhengguo with a soft gaze.

As soon as he heard that Ye Yuanzheng specially made it for himself, Ye Zhengguo immediately lowered his head with some guilt, at first he wanted to prevaricate his father and just say a dish, which Cheng thought that after more than ten years, his father still remembered the dishes he loved when he was a child, but his taste for his father became more and more blurred with the passage of time.

Ye Zhengguo looked at his father's wrinkled face again, and couldn't help but be stunned, it turned out that his father had been slowly getting older unconsciously, and he had never found out before that it was because as he grew older, he rarely paid too much attention to his father's changes.

The second is that my father has always paid attention to his own appearance, and often takes care of his green and white hair, and the furrows on his face, and now because of Zhenghua's death, his father, who was hit, did not have time to tidy up his appearance, so those green silk spots were revealed one by one.

At this point, Ye Zhengguo suddenly remembered that his father was already in his fifties, and he had been with him for more than 30 years, and a person had a few thirty years in his life, and his father had accompanied him through the first one, so could the second and third go on with him.

Ye Zhengguo didn't dare to think about it, just looked at his father's pale face silently, and couldn't help but think of a sentence in his heart: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the son wants to raise but the parent is not there." ”

Ye Yuanzheng glanced at his head, as if he didn't see Ye Zhengguo's eyes gradually glowing with tears, but his lips gradually clenched, his eyes gradually reddened, and he urged his daughter-in-law Xiaohe and grandson Ye Bin: "Eat quickly, eat quickly, otherwise the food will not taste good if it is cold for a while." ”

"What are you waiting for, why don't you hurry up and move your chopsticks, try my skills and haven't cooked for so many years, have you regressed?" Ye Yuanzheng called Ye Zhengguo.
