Chapter 85: The Old Man's Surprise

Before I knew it, it was already dawning, and my sister-in-law simply made some breakfast, and after using it, she took Chen Youwei to drive to the old man.

The New Year's capital is very noisy, and the crackling sound of firecrackers can be heard from time to time. I have gone around in a big circle in this world, and today I finally returned to this place where I was born and grew up, but the mood of being a human being in these two worlds is really complicated and not enough for outsiders.

In the early 90s, the capital had not yet been built on a large scale, and there were not as many reinforced concrete skyscrapers as in later generations. A large number of low-rise shantytowns came into Chen Youwei's eyes, and from time to time he saw the leisurely appearance of the ordinary people in the capital, which made people sigh that those who were running around for a small dwelling in later generations were really changing too fast in this world.

In the early years, the place where the old man lived was a courtyard block, and after some renovation, it became the residence of a considerable number of retired old cadres. From the outside, it doesn't look good, but when Chen Youwei saw that the car that had just turned into the alley was stopped and checked for a pass, he knew that the road was loose on the outside and strict on the inside. From the fact that every high-end car that drives into this neighborhood is slowing down at a low speed, and even the horn does not dare to sound it, you can tell how heavily guarded it is.

When the quiet alley came to an end, Chen Youwei got out of the car with everyone, and the familiar red bricks and green tiles in front of him made him sigh very much. Entering the main entrance, you will be greeted by a wide courtyard, the flower beds on both sides of the aisle have been cleared of snow, and the green flowers and plants add a lot of life to the huge courtyard.

In front of a huge copper tripod in the center of the aisle, Chen Youwei stood silently, the stone pier below the copper tripod was smooth and smooth, and there were no traces carved on it by the naughty self of another world. This garden without oneself seems to be very boring! Chen Youwei touched his chin and couldn't help but think with a wicked smile.

"Promising, go this way." The sister-in-law always paid attention to Chen Youwei's actions, looking at the nephew she had just recognized, her expression was confused, and her eyes couldn't help but be red again.

She has worked at the grassroots level for many years, and she takes it for granted that Chen Youwei has difficult conditions in such a small city as Yicheng. Compared with relying on a huge family to live a stable life after a special year, this nephew, who was lost since he was a child and could not be favored by his own parents, must have had a very difficult time when he was a child. Even if Chen Youwei said that he had not suffered any grievances, where would Chen Yunxia easily believe it.

"Yunxia is here, the chief has just had breakfast and is listening to the play in the living room." A middle-aged man greeted everyone with a smile.

Chen Yunxia slowed down, calmed down her good mood, turned her head and said to Chen Youwei: "Youwei, it's best to control your emotions when you see the old man later, after all, the old man is old and can't be stimulated." ”

"yes, I know."

Chen Youwei thought of that kind face, and his heart softened, it had been more than ten years since he saw his grandfather last in the world. Thinking of the towering tree that once sheltered him from the wind and rain and held his hands tightly when he was dying, Chen Youwei's eyes turned red.

Pulling open the thick curtain, everyone entered the warm living room, Chen Youwei could see clearly, an old man with gray hair was lying on a recliner with his eyes closed, listening to the opera program on the radio, and the fingers of his right hand were still beating with the rhythm.

"Oh, Yunxia is here," the old man opened his eyes when he heard the movement, and said strangely when he saw so many people: "Why are they all here?" ”

There is no majesty and domineering that the old man shows when facing outsiders, and the old man who faces his family can't see the murderous spirit of the battlefield in the war years. Chen Youwei stared at the old man with a good complexion for a long time, and the gaze in his eyes full of infinite affection could simply melt people.

The old man looked at the strange young man in front of him with strange eyes, and a familiar feeling made him feel very strange.

"Dad...... Who do you see coming? The sister-in-law trembled when she was excited, and pushed Chen Youwei, who was trembling all over, to the old man.

With a thin face and long sword eyebrows, the old man's heart shook, this young man's eyebrows are almost exactly the same as when he was young, is it possible?

Staring at Chen Youwei non-stop, the old man's cheeks were red, obviously he thought of something, and the staff next to him hurriedly helped the old man get up and came to Chen Youwei.

"Dad, he's promising!" The sister-in-law whispered affectionately: "His second brother's child is promising!" ”

The old man's body shook and almost didn't stand firm, hearing such surprising news, even if it was an old revolutionary with a calm temperament after a hundred battles, this moment was also full of tears.

"Is this my poor little grandson?" The old man grabbed Chen Youwei's arm and reached out to open Chen Youwei's left hand like his sister-in-law.

"Yes, yes, it's my little grandson!" The old man's eyes lit up, and he stared at Chen Youwei non-stop: "Hehe, when you were just born, I still showed off to people that your cinnabar mole was a symbol of good fortune." Who would have thought that you would be lost in Hezhou before you were two years old, hey, my hard-working child! ”

The sister-in-law sobbed and blamed herself: "It's all my fault, otherwise Youwei wouldn't have had such a bumpy fate and lost contact with the family for so long." ”

After all, the old man is not an ordinary person, and when he regained his calm, his eyes were like torches, and he was in a good mood and said with a hearty smile: "Yunxia, don't you think about it so much, isn't it going home." Youwei was lost from your hands and found it back from you, which shows that Youwei is still destined for you, and has a fate with our family! ”

Chen Youwei secretly admired that the old man really experienced the old way, and in just a few words, he adjusted the sister-in-law's always suppressed mood, and sure enough, Jiang is old and spicy.

"Yunxia, hurry up and inform your eldest brother and sister, it's a rare happy event for our old Chen family to come back!" The old man perked up and commanded with a wave of his hand.

Chen Yunxia wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and went to call with a smile.

Zheng Qingshan took his son Zheng He to sit next to the old man with Chen Youwei, and the grandparents and grandchildren who had been reunited after a long absence looked at each other silently, and silence was better than sound at this time.

Listening to Zheng He's recounting of the experience of knowing Chen Youwei, the old man stared at Chen Youwei with wise eyes and said with a smile: "It seems that my little grandson is still a chivalrous hero." ”

Chen Youwei smiled bitterly in his heart, the old man is the old man, if he changes his own careful thinking, he may ignore it, the old man has rich experience, and he can see the strangeness at a glance.

"Ahem, sir...... Master, I was actually in a hurry, I just wanted to help Xiaohe, but I didn't expect that there seemed to be another mystery behind it, so I reminded me vaguely. The old man's familiar eyes made Chen Youwei's heart hot, and he simply said his thoughts.

The old man nodded secretly, his little grandson is not very old and has a lot of experience.

"Listening to my friend, there seems to be a person secretly directing not far from Zheng He's conflict with someone," Chen Youwei said in the name of Hu Xiaosong: "My friend happens to know that person, and the guy named Zhou Dongfang is also a frequent visitor to the club, but I don't know why Lu Dao targeted Zheng He's cousin." ”

Zhou Dongfang? The expression of the little uncle Zheng Qingshan changed, he looked at the old man and said softly: "Isn't this the child of the old Zhou family, I heard that it is quite close to the old Cheng family......

The old man's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he smiled casually on the surface: "Zheng He is still a student and has no social experience, so let him go to those messy places less in the future." ”

"Oh, I know it, grandpa." Zheng He, whose face was flushed, replied, but out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Chen Youwei, his cousin seemed to be going more.

As he spoke, there was a rush of footsteps from the courtyard outside, the curtain was opened, and a majestic face met Chen Youwei's eyes.

"Dad, you're fine, are you?"

Chen Bonian, who was of medium stature and undiminished, was a little panting, and he was shocked when he received an ominous call from his little sister, and thought that something had really happened to his old man.

Seeing the old man sitting there calmly, Chen Bonian glared at his sister-in-law fiercely, obviously dissatisfied with this inexplicable thing. Chen Bonian was followed by the children of the Chen family who arrived one after another, and soon the hall was full of people.

Chen Youwei's unfamiliar face naturally attracted the attention of others, and Chen Bonian raised his eyebrows slightly. For so many years, the old man has been innocent and indifferent, and it is incredible that this young man can be so close to the old man.

For everyone's surprised gaze, Chen Youwei smiled faintly and didn't pay attention to it, he had long been very accustomed to getting along with the old man like this, and he had long been used to such a gaze.

There is a strange look in the eyes of the old man next to him, he is neither humble nor arrogant, and he is very calm, and the surprises brought to him by his little grandson are really one after another!

"Big brother, guess who he is?"

The sister-in-law's tone was full of joy, and her usual expression with a straight face was almost like two people, not to mention Chen Bonian, the eldest brother, but the little characters behind him were all extremely surprised.

The familiar feeling came into view, and Chen Bonian was uncertain, he shouldn't have seen it at such a young age!

"Good familiar......ity", the eldest sister Chen Tianxia on the side walked up to Chen Youwei and carefully identified it.

"Big brother, big sister, second sister, he is the second brother's child!" The sister-in-law smiled proudly, and the shadow that had been suppressed in her heart for many years was gone.

"What?" Everyone exclaimed in unison: "This is the second brother's child?" ”

The old man smiled, very satisfied with everyone's reaction, Chen Youwei saw it in his eyes, and was funny in his heart, they all said that it was an old child, and this old man bought a set of guanzi.
