Chapter 481, Old Man Xu Returns to China (Daily Chapter)
The nanny car was driving on the highway, and Mr. Xu opened the window to look at the scenery outside the window.
Xu Youyou said with concern: "Grandpa, it's windy, be careful of catching a cold."
After speaking, Xu Youyou, who was sitting next to him, wanted to stand up and help Mr. Xu close the car window.
"You don't need to close the window, it's okay, I'm not that weak, besides, I haven't returned to China for so long, you just let me take a few more looks." Xu Laozi stretched out his hand to block Xu Youyou.
Lin Feng sat in the front row, turned around and smiled, "Yoyo, your grandfather's body is tough, look at his spirit, where does he look like a man who is almost eighty years old."
Old Man Xu gave a thumbs up and said with a smug smile: "I love to hear this, Yoyo, look at Xiaolin."
Then, Old Man Xu sighed and said, "Our older generation, the most important thing is to return to the roots, if you marry Xiaolin and stay in China, I don't have to go abroad."
Hearing Old Man Xu say this, Xu Youyou's pretty face turned red, and he said slightly, "Grandpa."
Old Man Xu smiled and said, "Okay, this is your young man's business, and my old man doesn't get involved."
After speaking, he turned his head and continued to look at the scenery outside the window.
Xu Youyou's eyes couldn't help but look at Lin Feng at this time, and when she saw Lin Feng's burning gaze also throwing at her.
Xu Youyou's face was as red as an apple, and he lowered his head shyly.
The two have known each other for two years and have been dating for a year, although they have been in a long-distance relationship for a long time.
But according to his age, Xu Youyou is 22 years old this year, and he has indeed reached the age of talking about marriage.
Xu Youyou and Old Man Xu did not return to Huiming Lane, but chose to stay in a hotel nearby.
Huiming Lane is too small, a room is still partitioned, and it is inconvenient to go up and down the stairs, so it is better to stay in a hotel.
In the car, Lin Feng roughly understood Old Man Xu's itinerary.
He stayed in Haicheng for two days, and then went north to the capital and went to Li's house.
By the way, take a look at the old man of the Li family, the two old men are old friends and haven't seen each other for more than ten years.
Li Tianji's grandfather lives in a cadre sanatorium, Lin Feng has never seen it, and he has only heard of this person, and besides, Lin Feng and Li Tianji's grandfather have nothing to do with each other, so it is normal that he has not seen him.
After Mr. Xu checked into the hotel, he said that the jet lag had not yet reversed, and he was a little tired and wanted to take a break.
Xu Youyou wanted to go back to Huiming Lane, but she hadn't been back for a year.
Huiming Lane is less than a kilometer away from the hotel where Xu Youyou and the others lived, and if you take the small road, it can be faster.
So, after coming out of the hotel, Lin Feng and Xu Youyou walked side by side towards Huiming Lane.
At first, neither of them spoke.
The longer I haven't seen you, the more I miss it, and when I really let you see someone, you don't know what to say.
Lin Feng and Xu Youyou, both of them.
The two didn't speak all the way to Huiming Lane.
When he walked into Huiming Lane, Xu Youyou showed a smile on his face.
Along the way, many neighbors, as well as the owner of the snack bar downstairs, greeted Xu Youyou very warmly when they saw Xu Youyou coming back.
Xu Youyou has lived in Huiming Lane for more than two years, and has a good relationship with the neighbors here.
There are also a few aunts who directly asked Xu Youyou to come to their house for dinner in the evening.
It's good to say it, so I resigned.
The two walked through Huiming Lane, returned to No. 49, and went up to the second floor.
Xu Youyou took out the key and opened the door of his room.
After the door opened, she walked in, casually touched the table next to her, and nodded, "It's been so long, and there is no dust."
"I'll come and clean it every week when I have time, and by the way, water your flowers." Lin Feng said.
Xu Youyou looked at Lin Feng with a pair of beautiful eyes, nodded, and said, "Yes, it really lives up to the landlord's trust and takes care of this place in an orderly manner."
Then, Xu Youyou suddenly took a step forward and came to Lin Feng.
She looked up at Lin Feng
, his eyes were blazing: "Say, what reward do you want."
At this time, the distance between the two was not ten centimeters, especially when Xu Youyou stood in front of him, Lin Feng seemed to be able to feel the breath she exhaled.
Especially when I saw Xu Youyou's slightly provocative eyes.
Lin Feng couldn't help it, so he directly hugged Xu Youyou's waist and kissed him.
Xu Youyou also reached out to hug Lin Feng's neck.
At this moment, the lovers completely let go of their reserve.
I don't know how long it took, lip part.
Xu Youyou's face turned a little red, panting, and looked at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng also adjusted his breathing slightly, faced Xu Youyou's gaze, and said, "Look at ***?"
"Look at you, look at you, look at you..."
Seeing the somewhat childish Xu Youyou, Lin Feng stretched out his hand and stroked Xu Youyou's hair.
Xu Youyou smiled at Lin Feng.
Looking at the girl in front of him, sure enough, as long as they are together, they can make people have a very happy mood.
Xu Youyou touched his hair and said, "I'm sweating."
Her forehead was covered with beads of sweat at this point.
At this time, it was already July, and it was quite hot without turning on the air conditioner, especially when the two of them were tired of it just now.
Xu Youyou asked, "I'm thirsty, do I have water to drink?"
"Oh..... I've got juice in the fridge, I'll get it for you..."
Then, Lin Feng went back to his room and brought two bottles of water from the refrigerator.
When he returned to Xu Youyou's room, he found that Xu Youyou had opened the window of the room, and the light illuminated the room very brightly.
The wind outside the balcony blew in, which made Lin Feng suddenly think of last summer.
It's also so hot, and it's also a bit of heat and a cool wind blowing on the balcony, he and Xu Youyou are eating spicy crayfish on the balcony while chatting about life and ideals.
At this time, Xu Youyou had already come to the balcony.
"Give." Lin Feng walked to the balcony and handed a bottle of juice to Xu Youyou.
Xu Youyou took the juice and said thank you.
Then, she opened the juice and took a few sips.
A bottle of 500 juice was drunk by her in an instant.
Xu Youyou put down the juice, breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at Lin Feng with a pair of big eyes, his mouth was a little pouting, but he didn't speak, as if he was angry.
Lin Feng cautiously asked, "What's the matter, isn't the juice delicious?"
"Lin Feng, you lied to me."
This sentence suddenly came out of Xu Youyou's mouth, startling Lin Feng.
Did she know something?
At this time, Xu Youyou looked back at the pot of orchids behind him and said, "Obviously, this flower grows well, when you celebrate the New Year, you called me and said that it froze to death, and I felt distressed for a long time."
Lin Feng pretended to be calm and said, "Well, this flower had withered at that time, I thought it was really going to die, and then I found a special master to help me take a look, and put it where he raised it for a few days, and sent it back after feeding."
This is the second time Lin Feng has lied to Xu Youyou.
Xu Youyou looked up at Lin Feng, she didn't speak.
Lin Feng met Xu Youyou's gaze, he was a little weak in his heart, but the more weak he was, the more he had to meet the other party's gaze.
This is the experience that I finally gained after a few relationships in my previous life.
Xu Youyou breathed a sigh of relief and said, "No matter, it's good to be alive, my grandmother likes orchids the most, so all the orchids are planted here, whenever I come to this place and look at these orchids, I will think of my grandmother."
Speaking of this, Xu Youyou's eyes revealed a kind of tenderness like water.
Lin Feng looked at the girl in front of him.
Xu Youyou is in his heart, just like that orchid.
Lin Feng even had the urge to propose to Xu Youyou at this time.
But this impulse was suppressed by him.
Because Lin Feng knew that he was not completely ready.
.........
The two chatted in the room drinking juice and blowing the summer wind.
Soon the time came to five o'clock, Lin Feng and Xu Youyou returned to the hotel and took Old Man Xu out for dinner.
For dinner, he ate authentic Haicheng cuisine, and the restaurant he picked was a Northeast cuisine restaurant in the old city that Mr. Xu chose, he said that he often came to eat when he was in Haicheng, and he had eaten for more than 20 years.
The owner of the Northeast restaurant has long been replaced by the son of the original owner.
But the original restaurant owner no longer cooks, but when he heard that Old Man Xu was coming, he was very happy and ran over from home in person.
The two chatted for a while, cooked a table of meals themselves.
During the meal, I also came over to toast a few glasses.
Lin Feng tried the dishes here, not to say that they were very delicious, but only average.
But what the old man eats is not dishes, but memories of the past.
After having a full dinner, Lin Feng and Xu Youyou took Old Man Xu for a walk around the old city and then went back.
The next day, Xu Youyou and Lin Feng will take Mr. Xu back to the Haicheng Museum, where Mr. Xu has worked for more than 30 years, to meet his old colleagues.
In the Haicheng Museum, when it was known that the old curator was back, the current curator personally came out to receive him, in addition to the curator, there were many employees who used to work under Mr. Xu.
So on the same day, you can see a group of people in the Haicheng Museum, a girl in front of her pushing an old man in a wheelchair, the museum director patiently explaining the current situation of the museum next to him, followed by seven or eight staff in white shirts.
Many people who came to visit the museum thought that the leaders from above had come up to inspect and guide the work.
Regarding the deeds of Old Man Xu's work back then, Lin Feng had only heard Xu Youyou mention it, but when he really walked into this museum, he really felt that Old Man Xu was not ordinary.
Old man Xu spent his life's work on the protection of cultural relics.
It's no wonder that even when he goes abroad, he still likes to go to museums.
When Lin Feng talked about some concepts of the show "National Treasure", the old man would be so excited.
This is the unique temperament of the older generation of intellectuals, and the kind of dedication and dedication that has been consistent for ten years is very rare in this generation of young people.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, the museum will close.
The director of the museum, as well as a group of old employees, personally sent Mr. Xu outside the museum.
On the way back to the hotel, Mr. Xu talked about the work of the year, which was full of spirit, not like an old man who was almost eighty at all.
After a short stay in Haicheng for a day, the next day, Xu Youyou and Lin Feng took Old Man Xu on a flight to the capital.
From Haicheng to the capital, the flight takes only two hours.
Xu Youyou called Li Tianji a day in advance and told Old Man Xu that he was coming to the capital.
When Lin Feng and the others walked out of the airport, they found that not only did they pick up the plane, but Li Tianji also came, and even Li Jinshan came.
This big leader, in his busy schedule, also took time out to pick up the plane, which shows how high the status of Old Man Xu is in the minds of the younger generation.
Lin Feng and Xu Youyou pushed Old Man Xu to Li Tianji's car.
Li Jinshan greeted first: "Uncle Xu, you are here."
Then, Li Tianji, who has always been cynical, also respectfully shouted "Grandpa Xu".
Lin Feng and Xu Youyou also greeted Li Jinshang separately.
A group of five people got into the SUV driven by Li Tianji.
Because he knew that Mr. Xu's legs were inconvenient, he specially drove an SUV with more space.
Li Tianji drove, and Lin Feng sat in the passenger seat.
Li Jinshan and Xu Youyou sat on either side of Old Man Xu.
"Uncle Xu, I ordered a table of food, let's go eat first, as if it was to catch the wind and wash the dust for you, what do you think, you take a day off first, and I will take you there tomorrow."
Look at our old man."
It is difficult to see Li Jinshan so respectful in front of a person, in a consultative tone.
Old Man Xu shook his head and said, "Take me to meet Lao Li first, when to eat more and more rice, I don't have high requirements for eating, just have a bowl of fried noodles."
"Eh...." Li Jinshan nodded, and said to Li Tianji, who was driving in front, "Tianji, drive to the cadre sanatorium where your grandfather lives."
"Okay." Li Tianji turned the car around and drove in the other direction.
It should be in the direction of the suburbs.
After the car got off the highway, it went out of the suburbs of the capital.
Generally, the sanatoriums for cadres are built in the suburbs, especially in places near mountains and rivers, where the air is good, the water source is good, and the scenery is good, so it is suitable for recuperation.
After the car left the suburbs, it drove for another two hours and came to the outside of an inconspicuous compound in the suburbs.
The main entrance of the compound is guarded by guards.
Looking up at the gate of this inconspicuous compound, there is a big star-shaped relief overhead.
After the car drove to the courtyard gate, it went through a very strict security check before finally driving in.
After entering the compound, I found that this compound is only a small part of the periphery, and then into a forest area, a two-car passage directly extends into this forest area.
After coming in, Li Tianji drove for another half an hour before he came to a small building built in the middle of the mountain.
Lin Feng took a look, the scenery and environment here, next to it is a pond, the pond is planted with lotus flowers, it just blooms in summer, dragonflies fly on the pond, and stay on the lotus leaves from time to time, which is poetic and picturesque.
Although it is summer, I still feel very cool when I walk here, and I want to be the big trees on both sides of this road.
The trees here are very large and still growing luxuriantly, although Lin Feng does not understand trees, but he can also see that these plants are at least a few decades old, and some may even be hundreds of years.
Li Tianji drove the car directly into the yard and stopped.
Lin Feng and Li Tianji very carefully helped Old Man Xu down from the car.
"Okay, Grandpa Xu, we're here, and my grandfather is here."
After Old Man Xu got out of the car, he looked around and said with a smile: "This Lao Li, you really know how to pick a place for retirement, and you have chosen such a good place by the mountains and rivers."
