Chapter 9: To the Brother's Banquet

The sky is slightly white, and the heart is difficult to be quiet. The birds chirp and make people sleep.

Dr. Mao was lying on the bed, his eyes looking out the window: the birds in this campus were the first to get up, the melodious sound seemed familiar, and the rhythm of the sunrise and sunset was the same.

If it weren't for the fact that Xiao Qin Yi was still sleeping in his arms at this time, he would definitely believe that everything that had happened in the past ten days was just a dream. This little guy used to sleep with his sixteenth brother every night, but now he is alone and afraid of the dark. Hey, even if the little rabbit doesn't make trouble, Little Red Riding Hood will definitely say that grandpa is so eccentric, grandpa is the most eccentric. Hey, it's hard to serve!

Breakfast is their own wontons, Tingzhi and Xiaolan both finished eating and went to work, Little Red Riding Hood was going to pull grandpa's ears, but was stopped by grandma's "shhh", the little girl was very sensible, and she was busy "shh Then they all went to kindergarten with their grandmothers in hand.

"Old man, are you awake," the wife saw the old man's eyes open when she went out, and added: "Just now, your senior brother Jin called, and invited you and Xiaoyi to dinner at the "Triumphal Arch" at noon. ”

"Oh, this brother, I still remember my brother, it's just that the grade of the "Triumph Palace" is too high. ”

"Yes, but people said, if you don't see you, you can take Xiaoyi with you, I won't go. Now I go out to buy groceries and make dumplings to eat at night. ”

"Okay, then you should be careful on the road."

Dr. Mao stretched his waist, still thinking about what his wife had just said, it was expected that Jin Jian invited him to dinner, but he really didn't expect to be so gracious. ”

"Xiaoyi, it's time to get up, grandpa will take you out to play today."

The little guy rubbed his eyes, as if he hadn't slept enough.

"Grandpa, I dreamed of my father."

One sentence disrupted the doctor's thoughts, yes, this child came to this completely strange world without relatives and for no reason, and I will grow old in the future, poor boy.

"Do you remember what your father and mother looked like?"

Xiaoyi shook her head, looking confused: "I don't remember, I only heard my father and mother tell me that they love me very much, and they are reluctant to leave me." ”

"Good boy, grandpa can't bear you, by the way, Xiaoyi, let me ask you, your grandpa said that you can find your way home, so didn't you say when to go home?"

"Grandpa said that as long as I listen to your grandfather Mao, I can go home when I grow up."

"Do you know where your home is?"

"Know, right near where the grown-ups found the two of us. The sixteenth brother of that road taught me to recognize. ”

"Do you remember the road?" This surprised Dr. Mao.

"Well, I'll draw it for Grandpa."

Dr. Mao thought this was a good idea, so he brought a pen and paper, and when he saw Xiao Qinyi's posture of holding the pen (the little guy held the pencil in the palm of his hand, but his hand was clenched into a fist), he laughed:

"You, you have to listen to grandpa, you can't hold a pen like this. I'll take you to learn to write in a few days. ”

Qin Yi gritted his teeth embarrassedly, and his little hand drew it very seriously, and after a while, a mountain was really presented on the paper, but he didn't expect this little guy to be very talented in painting.

"Grandpa, look, here is where the adults found us, let's go from that side, over there, and then here, here the sixteenth brother said that there were a lot of peach blossoms planted before, but now I can't see it, oh, I have to bend nine bends, and then go into a cave, and there is a stone on the top of the inside, and there is a hole in it, put my little black stone in it, and you can open this stone wall, and it is a house to enter, and the outside of the house is our home."

The doctor really couldn't believe that Xiao Qin Yi actually remembered the path so clearly, and he didn't have any reservations about his fake grandfather, innocent.

"Grandpa, they also said that you can only let Grandpa Mao know about this matter, and you will keep this secret, right? They say you're the most trustworthy person. ”

Xiao Qin Yi's words were really touching, the doctor was a little ashamed, he looked up and saw the person in the mirror on the wall, and only smiled bitterly, what ability do you have as an old man to solve their problems, just watching, suddenly, a figure flashed in his mind, it was Elder Qin, this old brother was still pouring wine for himself, and he didn't refuse to come.

"Engong, Qin Yi will entrust it to you, this trip is an opportunity to go to the meeting, and you can't be humane to outsiders, otherwise you may cause trouble. Grace, please also remember: do your best in everything and do what you can. As the saying goes, there is a take, and there is a give-and-take. The way to choose is to be worthy of your heart. The scorching sun is cold, the water and fire are blended, everything is as it is. ”

The doctor remembered, it turned out that this Qin Yi was entrusted to him by the people of Qin Village, so there was no need to rush it now. The doctor put away the picture, and his heart was relieved, so everything should be left to chance.

The "Palace of Triumph" hotel is one of the most luxurious hotels in Beijing, and it is named after the decoration of the hotel gate that imitates the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. Not only that, but even the interior design of the lobby, including calligraphy, painting, furniture, etc., is all Europeanized, and the style is extremely luxurious. Hey, I'm afraid I'm going to eat this time and my brother's flesh hurts for several days.

The doctor's expression was helpless, but Xiao Qin Yi's childish eyes looked left and right, looking very excited. In the past two days, the little one has been so curious about everything he touches, and even more so than before.

There is still half an hour before the appointed time, Dr. Mao intends to rush so early, in order to let Xiao Qin Yi see the world more, he must learn to adapt to this environment, adapt to this society, and he will eventually grow old, no, he is already aging.

"Xiaoyi, this house was built by a scholar, is it beautiful?" Dr. Mao made a gesture of praise.

The little guy nodded vigorously, with a look of envy.

"Do you want to read?"

"Well, I'm going to read. I'm going to build a big house like this, too. ”

Dr. King also came with his little grandson, five minutes earlier than the agreed time.

"Brother Mao! You're always ahead of me. My little grandson is clamoring to come, but I can't help it, so I'll keep you waiting. Who is this kid? The stone around the neck is really interesting! ”

"Hehe, old gold! We have only arrived for a while, and this child is my lifesaver, and thanks to his leading the way these days, I can come back alive. ”

"Then today is even more to celebrate, there will be blessings if you don't die."

"Oh, look at you, you have to come here, isn't it just to have a meal, why is it so grand!"

"Brother Mao doesn't underestimate people, yesterday you were a family reunion, I pondered whether to mix or don't mix, today I deliberately set a seat here, just to welcome our Brother Mao's triumphant return. Besides, I didn't pay for this meal alone, if you want to say Brother Mao, you also have a share. ”

"Do I have it too?" Mao Bowen pondered that this old boy is not the kind of master who doesn't pay for treats, what does this mean, but as soon as the words came out, he felt that it was inappropriate, and he was about to lose face.

"Haha, Brother Mao, don't worry, come, sit down."
