Chapter 16 Kindness will be rewarded
Early morning.
"Knock knock—"
The knock on the door woke Chen Yuan from his steady state, and the sun was shining outside the window.
Chen Yuan opened his eyes, picked up the mobile phone on the bedside and looked at it, 7:02. After a little sense, Chen Yuan found that it was his mother Tang Shu who was standing outside the door and knocking on the door.
He quickly jumped out of bed and shouted, "Mom, wait a minute, I'll open the door for you right away." ”
"No, you can sleep a little longer, the driver is already downstairs. I made breakfast, you can wait for the microwave and eat. Remember to wake up your sister, I'll leave first, the company has a lot of business, I'll come back in two days, something to call. ”
Tang Shu's clear and soft voice came from the door open, and then she heard her leather boots "da-da-da" and leave the door.
Chen Yuan quickly stepped forward to open the door, and looked over: "Have you eaten?"
Tang Shu turned around and smiled, warming his heart: "I've eaten it." Hey, did you go to bed last night without undressing?"
"I get dressed fast. Chen Yuan leaned against the door, "You pay more attention to rest, don't be too tired." ”
"Yes, remember to wake your sister up later, or she will sleep until twelve o'clock again." Tang Shu looked at his watch and said with a smile: "I'm leaving, I'll ask someone to deliver food to you at noon." ”
"No, I can cook, I will take care of my sister, you go and get busy. ”
Watching his mother leave with the door, Chen Yuan stood in place for a moment. Then I walked over and opened the refrigerator, which contained two prepared sandwiches and two medium-rare poached eggs. Thinking that his mother got up early in the morning and made it for him herself, Chen Yuan couldn't help laughing again, feeling very good.
When he came to the door of the bedroom and stood for a long time, Chen Yuan gently pushed open and returned the door. In the faint fragrance, the girl lay on the bed on all fours, covered with a duvet, her legs in plaster resting in the center of the bed, and her hair was fluffy and messy on her delicate face. I don't know how to toss at night to sleep with this dignity.
The room is a light blue theme color, with a very girly atmosphere, a large doll on the bed, orchid flowers on the windowsill, books that fill the entire shelf, and a guitar in the corner......
My sister has many more hobbies than Chen Yuan. Not only loves to read, but also dances, swims, guitar, piano, and knows several foreign languages, Chen Yuan is in front of her, except for the natural advantages of her brother's identity, the rest of the parts, including appearance, are all crushed, from childhood to adulthood, Chen Yuan has been used to it. It's just that at school, he still doesn't dare to admit the fact that the school girl is his sister...... It's really annoying to hand out love letters every day.
Glancing at his sleeping sister, Chen Yuan gently closed the door, went to the bedroom to get some change, and took the new mobile phone that his mother bought for him in his hand, turned around and went out.
There are few pedestrians in the community, tall and straight ginkgo trees are budding, shrubs are neatly mowed by hard-working gardeners, and the soft lawn makes people want to roll up, and you can vaguely see the traces of him speeding through it a few days ago, and there should be no less cursed people behind it.
At this time, it was the time when the sun was rising, and Chen Yuan could feel the very active aura of heaven and earth spreading out between heaven and earth with the morning glow, gently rhythmic, and then attracted by Chen Yuan, slowly entering his body. The refreshing feeling of aura running through the meridians is indescribable in any words.
Chen Yuan first went to the commissary to buy a pack of soft China, took out one and put it in his mouth, thought about it, and stuffed it back again, everything that had been quit for many years was useless to pick it up again.
Then he went straight to the security room, and a middle-aged security guard was on duty in the booth early.
"Big brother, is it convenient, I want to ask you something. Chen Yuan smiled, took out a cigarette and handed it over.
The middle-aged man took the cigarette, saw that it was China, and then leaned in front of his nose to sniff it, and grinned: "Ouch, this is a good smoke." He looked Chen Yuan up and down a few times, and saw that it was a handsome young man, so he put away his vigilance, "Does the young man have a mess?"
Chen Yuan saw the vigilance of the security guard, and said with a gentle smile: "I want to ask the eldest brother about someone." ”
"Well, that's not going to work. The owner's information, I am inconvenient to disclose, you take back the cigarettes. ”
The security guard shook his head and returned the cigarette in his hand.
"Big brother, you misunderstood. Actually, I also live in this community, just in Building 3 Unit 9, oh, this is my key and key card...... Hehe, what I want to find is an old woman, she did me a great favor that day, and I don't know anyone, so I have to ask you about it, so I can thank you in person. ”
Asking for others, Chen Yuan behaved exceptionally gently.
The eldest brother of the security guard looked at Chen Yuan suspiciously a few times before nodding in agreement, and after Chen Yuan described the old woman that day, the middle-aged security guard asked Chen Yuan to register and sign again, and then he said an address, and told him that the old woman he described was surnamed Zhou.
Chen Yuan left the pack of cigarettes at the sentry box, went to the community supermarket to buy a large bag of fruit and a few health products, and then walked towards the five residential buildings.
Chen Yuan stood at the door of 2307, and after making sure that there was someone inside, he pressed the doorbell.
After a while, the door creaked open from the inside, revealing the figure of an old man. When he saw that the old man was a strange young man carrying a big bag and a small bag, his face immediately turned and he began to bombard: "Let's go, I haven't accepted gifts for many years...... No, I'm retired, don't do anything, don't come here. As he spoke, he was about to close the door.
Chen Yuan smiled bitterly, yes, listening to the old man's tone, it should be an old cadre, and he was misunderstood by others that he was coming to give gifts. He had no choice but to stretch out his hand and hurriedly said, "Wait, I'm not here to find you, I'm here to find Granny Zhou, she has a mole on her forehead, it's your family, right?" he pointed to the corner of his forehead.
The old man was stunned, then turned around and shouted, "Old woman, I'm looking for you." ”
"Who's looking for me?"
An old figure appeared in the corner of the living room, with an apron tied around his waist and a kitchen knife in his hand, looking over this side suspiciously, and then his face showed a sudden look: "Eh, aren't you the young man that day?"
"Yes, that's me. Chen Yuan immediately laughed, "Thank you Granny Zhou for showing me the way that day, so I came here today to express my gratitude." ”
When the old man heard that he didn't come to him, and mentioned that his wife had done a good deed, he immediately smiled: "Young man, don't stand at the door, come in and sit." He yelled at Granny Zhou again: "You put down the knife first, you want to kill someone." ”
"You know, you're loud. ”
Granny Zhou knew how to put knives in the kitchen, and Chen Yuan entered the door.
The house is not big, but it is comfortable and tidy, the furniture in the living room is antique, there are calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, a few bottles of wine are placed on the entrance, and there are some wood carvings.
As soon as he put the things in his hand on the sofa, Granny Zhou turned around again and said with a smile: "Young man, you are too polite, I just showed you the way, I can't help, you can bring the things back later...... Sit down, I'll pour you water. ”
"No, no, no. Chen Yuan excused himself, and then said with a solemn face, "Maybe it's just a small favor for you, but for me, it's a life-saving grace." He thought for a moment, and then his face turned grim, "Since my mother-in-law doesn't accept my gifts, then okay, I'll kowtow to you." ”
After he finished speaking, he was really about to kneel down, but the old man next to him was quick and hurriedly helped: "I can't help it, I can't help it." After the founding of the People's Republic of China, this was not the case...... You're too much, young man. ”
Granny Zhou also rushed over to persuade: "Xiao Chen, don't ...... Well, since you ask for peace of mind, I'll take the things. ”
"Thank you. Chen Yuan clenched his fists at Granny Zhou and bowed to the ground, which was considered a complete etiquette.
The three of them sat down and chatted for a few words, and they knew that this old man was called 'Qin Tai', and Granny Zhou's full name was 'Zhou Shufen'.
Chen Yuan briefly recounted his intentions again, including the reason why he ran crazy, he only said that he knew that his sister had a car accident and was in a hurry to rush over. Most ordinary people have a very vague concept of time when they don't have a watch, and they don't remember the time difference between seven or eight minutes before and after a car accident.
Zhou Shufen and his wife had long heard about the car accident that day, and now that Chen Yuan said this, the old man and the old woman easily completed the whole situation in their minds.
The people were still making breakfast, and Chen Yuan didn't want to bother too much, so he said goodbye to the two. Granny Zhou also politely kept Chen Yuan for breakfast before leaving, Chen Yuan politely refused and asked him to come to the house often to sit in the future, Chen Yuan was full of promises.
The door closed, and Chen Yuan heard Zhou Shufen's old voice coming from inside the door: "This Xiao Chen too, such a little thing is still in my heart, and I came to thank him." He's a good boy. ”
Qin Tai said: "That day, you showed the way to others, and it looked small, but in other people's houses, the weight was very heavy. Looking at the magnanimity of his conversation just now, I am afraid that the family is not small, and the rules are so big. ”
"The dead old man is thinking about it again, and he will stop when he retires...... I don't know if it's big or not, but now there are not many people who don't forget a little kindness, and it's rare to ......"
The elevator door closed, and the sound inside the door was no longer audible, and Chen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
He is by no means a good person, but it is the fundamental principle of being a man to repay kindness...... Zhou Shufen is kind to him, and the repayment is certain.
In addition, there is also Yang Yu, who saved his sister by mistake, and the cause and effect of this still needs to be concluded by him.
