In the small county town of Yangxi City, the sky is hazy with frosted glass-like fog and rain, and the streets at night are brightly lit and lively.

The barbecue stalls on both sides of the road are full of laughing diners, cups of draft beer are simmering, and the smell of kebabs and tar smoke linger throughout the street, as if they are in love, and the tar and steaming sweat stick together under the clothes, and it is difficult to give up.

Li Fadian frowned, he didn't like this too greasy smoke, and he didn't like to be followed in the middle of the night, just like he didn't like his too casual name, but he knew that sometimes he had no choice, because his father, who liked Taoist culture, had already ascended to immortality a year ago, and apart from the house, 'Li Fadian' was the only thing that Daddy Li Er left him.

He looked behind him, and he didn't know when, the old man who followed him was gone, and when he turned his head back, a gray-haired old woman was lying in the middle of the road, looking like she had just fallen.

This time, Li Fadian deliberately observed the guests at the nearby food stalls, and he was very sure that as long as he was not blind, someone would definitely notice an old man in a big red jacket lying in the middle of the road like a lying corpse illegally occupying the motorway.

Is this bullying yourself for being a good person?

Taking a deep breath, Li Fadian stepped forward in a few steps, and patiently helped up the stiff old man with a cold body and a big red jacket, so as not to prevent the other party from being collided by the passing vehicles.

The old man's body was tightly covered, his head was wrapped in a red turban, his hands were wearing red gloves, red cotton trousers and red embroidered shoes made the old man look beaming, most suitable for ordinary people to be happy in the middle of the night, Li Fadian's gaze was fixed on the old man's pale and black-purple neck, which was the only part of the old man exposed, and the long-haired young man with a slightly gloomy appearance said softly with a standard face of respecting the old and loving the young.

"Grandma, you go home, and then follow me to my house as a guest, my family is small, I can't tolerate your big Buddha who should stand under the traffic light to direct traffic, maybe it's not too late for me to come to my house again when I buy a car and get a driver's license, what do you think?"

The old grandmother who didn't reply was leaning over, the old man was half-bowing his head, obviously under the street lights, Li Fadian couldn't see the old man's face clearly, he could only see the general facial outline, Li Fadian thought about it, and guessed that it might be because the old man was a little shy because he was watched, after all, there are few people of the opposite sex who are not shy when they are looked at by themselves, and the old man is naturally no exception.

My own damn charm.

After thinking about it, Li Fadian, who sighed that he was as beautiful as a flower, took out two big red bills from his wallet and stuffed them into the waist pocket of the old man.

"This time, I will think that I hit you, I am not a rich man, you take this money to the flower seller's house next door to exchange it, what gold ingots and what large bills Uncle Hao's house is more, don't underestimate these two red banknotes, according to the exchange rate, this is definitely enough for you to live a comfortable life for a few days."

After babbling for a long time, under the gaze of others looking at neurosis, Li Fadian politely waved goodbye to the old man who was stunned in place, and continued to walk in the direction of home.

When he left the road at the intersection of the community, Li Fadian turned around again, and sure enough, he saw the old man ten meters behind him.

The old woman was still following him, and since he helped the old woman in the woods, the old woman who couldn't speak had been following him, and every time she came to an intersection, she lay down to cool off, for fear of heating herself.

Li Fadian sighed, it seems that this old grandmother has really lied to him, seeing that it is already more than nine o'clock in the evening, he can't really take it home and sleep with the older young woman, otherwise he has to jump up the father's spiritual position, and scold his son for inheriting his father's business, and falling into the crooked way of Boss Cao.

I didn't have the general Dian Wei standing at the door to help me prevent the disaster, so I still had to do it myself.

But if he really thought carefully about how to get rid of this difficult old man, he was also a little weak in his heart at night, thinking like this, Li Fadian simply stopped in place, while gently looking at the old grandmother who was standing in place obediently waiting for his own action, and at the same time found out that it was not smart, and it could be used as a brick for the three-proof ultra-long standby mobile phone,

Glancing at the old man secretly, and after estimating that he couldn't leave his grandmother with a three-proof mobile phone, Li Fadian unlocked the screen and dialed the mobile phone number of his childhood sweetheart's girlfriend and friend under the contact word 'turtle'.

After dialing, Li Fadian slightly moved the phone away from his ear, and the next moment, a clean female voice full of neutrality came from the loudspeaker of the mobile phone.

"You called in the middle of the night to find me to him? I can tell you Li Fadian, although I Li Bei has an iron relationship with you, but if you don't get married, you don't want to go to my bed, brother, I am the most...... At most, I'll give you a touch, this is already the limit, do you understand? The rest of the work can only be done with a license. ”

His face turned dark, and Li Fadian wanted to refute that he didn't want to do Ji in the middle of the night at all, but reason told him that now was not the time to talk nonsense, because the old woman began to move, and the old man would only stand ten meters behind him and follow him, or suddenly disappear and appear at another intersection and fall to the ground waiting for him to help.

The vehicles in the front community will only enter the underground garage and will not run in the community, plus this is the first time that the grandmother has made a behavior that does not belong to the 'grandmother', Li Fadian has a certain sense of urgency in his heart.

"What would you do if there was a lovely old grandmother who had to follow you home, little farewell? Come on, I'm in a hurry here. ”

"Huh? Cute granny? Although I don't know what kind of madness your kid has in the middle of the night, but if it were me, I would definitely bring it home to eat and drink well, haven't you heard that there is an old man in the family who has a treasure? Besides, do you dare to mess with the old man now? Slander you, you can't go bankrupt? When the time comes, I will have to pay off the debt with you, so how can I have time to go around with you at that time? ”

"Phew, even if I owe a debt, I will pay it myself, when will it be your turn...... By the way, don't come to my house these days, and don't let our parents come, I may have to entertain a guest at home, wait for me to contact next time. ”

Before Li Bei could ask questions, Li Fadian hung up the phone.

The photovoltaic panel street lights on both sides of the road are not as if they are not fully charged during the day, and they can't shine three meters away, as the old woman in red gets closer and closer, the street lights begin to flicker, Li Fadian seems to see some liquid dripping from the red clothes to the ground, rubbing his eyes, and the scene he saw just now disappeared abruptly.

The old man who approached Li Fadian was about to raise his right hand, but Li Fadian took two steps forward and took the initiative to meet him, holding the old grandmother's somewhat thin but powerful arm, just like a grandson holding his grandmother.

The old man froze in place, twisting his neck to look at Li Fadian, who looked at the old man's blurred face and smiled softly.

"Don't be afraid, you're here, I'm too rude to not even drink saliva if I've followed so far, anyway, my family is not popular now, if you don't dislike it, you can come and live at home for a few days."

The old man seemed to have suddenly lost his mobility, and let Li Fadian help him move all the way, walking towards Unit 2 of Building 14 in the community.

When I was about to go downstairs at the door of the unit, an aunt who walked the dog on a leash and never carried a shovel came to meet her, and Li Fadian took the initiative to wave his hand to say hello to the sworn enemy of the community cleaners.

"Sister Zhang, come out to walk your little treasure again? The dog is well-behaved, and the old teeth are not good for the body, and it is easy to lose teeth. ”

The teddy dog that had just relaxed on the ground was irritable and wagged its tail for a while, and then let out a frightened whimper, until it was held in the arms of its owner, and it calmed down a little, and retracted into the arms of its owner, not daring to move.

was a little strange about his dog's son's strange behavior, Zhang Wenqing just thought that the dog was crazy.

"Hey, I said why does the black goo look so familiar, it turns out to be the Dharma Palace, it's summer vacation? How many days are you going to stay this time? Is Xiao Li back? There is time for Wei Cheng to get together with you. ”

"I'm afraid I'll have to live for a while this time, Cheng, just let Wei Cheng come to my house to find me when the time comes, I've been at home for the past few days, and Xiao Bei often comes to live."

Li Fadian smiled hehe.

"That's right...... Then I'll talk to Wei Cheng, let him contact you, you are all friends and classmates who have played since childhood, and you have to help each other more in the future, it's not that my sister said you, you and Xiao Li are not young, there is a difference between men and women, you still have to study hard to improve yourself when you go to college, don't get tired of being together all day long, how bad outsiders look like, and it is easy to spread rumors......"

Zhang Wenqing's performance was a little hesitant, but considering that his son liked Li Bie very much, coupled with Li Bei's resolute personality and principled behavior, even if he lived with Li Fadian, he probably wouldn't do anything out of the ordinary, so Zhang Wenqing still decided to be cheeky and create a seemingly slim opportunity for his son.

Holding the old grandmother's arm, knowing that Zhang Wenqing was helping his son beat his future wife and good brother's idea, Li Fadian said with a smile.

"Sister Zhang, look at how many people are there around me? Grandma, would you like to say hello to Sister Zhang? ”

Zhang Wenqing looked at Li Fadian, who was alone with his arms around his arms and called his grandmother, and was shocked.

Li ...... Temple, what do you mean? How can there be a grandmother around you? ”

"Oh, I suddenly thought of my deceased grandmother, and I regretted that I hadn't been filial to her while she was alive...... Sister Zhang, if it's okay, I'll go first...... Grandma, go this way. ”

Smiled and waved his hand to Zhang Wenqing, who was pale, and her dog son, Li Fadian helped the old man brush his face on the security door of the unit, pulled it away and walked in with the old man.

"Click", the thick security door slowly closed, but Zhang Wenqing, who was holding a teddy dog, was stunned in place, looking blankly at the voice-controlled lights in the second-unit corridor that went all the way out, until the lights on the fifth floor were also extinguished, Zhang Wenqing knew that Li Fadian had arrived home.

Others walk at night and the street lights are lit all the way, but this Li Fadian walks all the way and goes all the way out, which is really completely different from normal people, and his father Li Er, who pretends to be a ghost all day long and draws talismans, is out of place with others, and Li Fadian's mother, who has never met, can't make up a normal person with three fingers.

Recalling Li Fadian's words just now, a gust of night wind blew, and Zhang Wenqing shuddered.

"Xiaobao, you say that this kid is not strange, if you really let Xiao Li find this kid, I don't know how many white eyes I will have to suffer in this life, it is better to follow my family Awei."

Different from the previous 'Wang' two responses, this time the teddy dog Xiaobao was just trembling in the owner's arms.

"Stupid dog, it won't be useful when it matters most! Scare a stinky boy like this! What a shame! ”

Spit on the ground, Zhang Wenqing walked towards the fitness venue of the community with the teddy dog in his arms, unaware that his clothes had been stained with Xiaobao's original smell.

……

Opening the security door, Li Fadian took the grandmother into the house left by his father.

The structure of the house is three bedrooms, two bathrooms and one living room, which is not a wealthy and noble family, Li Fadian is more than enough to live alone, even if he counts Li Bei, who often comes to live, it does not seem crowded, and even can live alone.

In front of the large TV in the living room is connected to the PS5 that I just bought after my freshman year, and the two gamepads are thrown on the ground at random, apparently just used.

There are yoga mats that can exercise next to it, and there are hanging boxing sandbags and barbell groups near the balcony of the big house, because the owner of the sixth floor is not at home all the year round, as long as it is not in the middle of the night, it will not affect the neighbors at all, this is Li Bei's favorite place, sometimes Li Bei wears cool training clothes and sweats like rain, and Li Fadian can watch his good brother all day.

There is a safe welded in the corner of the wall, I don't know if it is influenced by my father, Li Fadian doesn't like the lightning peachwood sword of exorcism, but likes the fierce battle array iron blade, there is a high-quality Tang horizontal knife in the safe with a style that is modern at a glance, this Tang horizontal knife was bought by Li Fadian's father Li Ertuo, and Li Fadian will take it out and play with it if there is nothing to do.

Glancing at the safe, Li Fadian, whose hands were itchy and eager to play with the knife, still decided to settle the old grandmother first.

"I'll live in the big house, and the cottage will be for the little don't, grandma, then I can only let you live in a side house, can you accept it?"

Supporting the grandmother who bowed her head and agreed by default, looking a little shy, Li Fadian decided to let the grandmother sleep with her father, if the father was not willing to accompany the older young woman, then he could only consider himself unlucky, and let Li not be a bitter master.

Use the key to open the locked door, the walls and ceilings of the room are covered with ghost-painted charms, I don't know if it's useful, anyway, just for psychological comfort, Li Fadian helped the old man into the side room with the father's spiritual position and posthumous photos.
