After lingering at the door for a long time, Gu Bei didn't know how to knock on this door.

The reunion was a family affair, and Gu Bei felt that it was very inappropriate for him to add it, but in the deepest part of his heart, there was always a voice driving Gu Bei, driving Gu Bei all the way to the door of the old man's house.

Why don't you go back...... After all, it's not your own home......

Gu Bei was about to turn around and leave, when the security door behind him rang, and immediately after, Master Liu's beautiful children's voice came out: "Mom, when will my brother come over?" ”

"I don't know, let's call again when I come back after buying groceries." Nangong Xiaokong himself also felt that Gu Bei would not come, but he still said to Master Liu.

Master Liu's face showed a hint of loss, and he silently followed behind Nangong Xiaokong, suddenly feeling that his eyes had darkened a little, and when he looked up, he found that it was the big villain he had been thinking about for a long time, and he immediately put on a beautiful face: "You're late!" ”

"Haven't you eaten Chinese New Year's Eve yet?" Gu Bei made a grimace at the little girl, and then looked at Nangong Xiaokong, "Sister, I'm bothered!" ”

"What's the bother, it's too late for me to welcome it." Nangong Xiaokong was also very happy to see that Gu Bei could come, and when she knew what happened to Gu Bei, she gradually became motherly, thinking about helping Gu Bei as much as possible.

"Sister, you and Shishi are going out to buy groceries, right?" Gu Bei asked, and then raised the bag in his hand, "I bought some on the way here, you can see if it's enough." ”

"You kid, really, it's okay for people to come, what kind of vegetables to buy." As he spoke, Nangong Xiaokong pushed the door open, "Come in first, Xiaobei." ”

Master Liu's father heard the voice and also walked out of the kitchen: "Xiaobei is here, sit down for a while, there are fruits and nuts on the coffee table, take them and eat them yourself." ”

"Brother-in-law, do you cook it yourself?" Gu Bei looked at Liu Zhongqiu with an apron tied around his waist, and the cuffs were also rolled up high, and he joked with a smile.

"No way, your sister doesn't make it delicious." Liu Zhongqiu replied with a smile, and felt Nangong Xiaokong's murderous gaze again, and hurriedly changed his words, "I am busy with work in normal times, and your sister has always been cooking before, so while I have time, hurry up and let the female emperor of our family rest for a while." ”

Nangong Xiaokong glared and said, "Don't speak ill of me in front of Xiaobei!" ”

"Huh! The minions are going to prepare dinner! I saw Liu Zhongqiu bow slightly and return to the kitchen.

Gu Bei smiled slightly, and asked, "Sister, look at what else you need to buy, I'll go out and buy it." ”

"I'll see." Nangong Xiaokong put the bag on the table, opened it in turn and took a look, "These are almost enough, but the starch at home is used up, and my father wants to make meatballs." ”

When Gu Bei heard this, he nodded: "Cornstarch is okay, right?" ”

"Cornstarch is a little better, and I will buy some more drinks, juice or something." Nangong Xiaokong instructed, remembered something again, and asked, "Do you know how to drive?" ”

"Yes, that's it." Gu Bei scratched his hair embarrassedly, "I don't have a driver's license yet." ”

Driving is a skill that Gu Bei learned in the crew, he was not old enough at that time, Gu Bei didn't take the test, and later returned to Beiping, Gu Bei didn't have a car, so he never remembered this stubble.

"If you have time to take one, forget it this time, you can take the teacher and buy it, it's not very far."

As soon as Nangong Xiaokong's voice fell, the little girl was unhappy: "I don't want to go." ”

Gu Beiyi raised his eyebrows, looked at Master Liu, and asked, "I don't seem to have made the little princess angry, right?" ”

Nangong Xiaokong gently rubbed Master Liu's hair and said, "You didn't come here much a while ago, and once in a while, you came over to bask in the sun with your grandfather, and Master may be a little unhappy." ”

"Not really." Master Liu glanced at Gu Bei coldly, "Do you love to come." ”

"Really?" Gu Bei's eyes rolled for a moment, staring at Master Liu for a while before he said, "Then I beg you to go with me, can you?" ”

"You beg me!" Master Liu smiled triumphantly, walked forward with his white and tender little feet, and greeted Gu Bei by the way, "Keep up!" ”

Looking at the back of the little girl going out, Gu Bei couldn't help but smile and said to Nangong Xiaokong: "Sister, then I'll take the teacher with me." ”

"Well, but Xiaobei, the teacher has been learning Paris dance since she was a child, she usually has no time, and she hasn't made any friends, you and the teacher are the same age, come to play with her more in the future, there are many things she doesn't want to tell us, usually it's a little too quiet, call her more when you have time."

When Gu Bei heard this, he immediately blinked, couldn't believe his ears, and asked, "Sister, what did you just say?" ”

"I'll give you time to chat with your teacher." Nangong Xiaokong looked at Gu Bei curiously, "What's wrong?" ”

"Not this one, the previous one."

Nangong Xiaokong thought for a moment and said: "The teacher has been learning Parisian dance since she was a child, and she hasn't had much time since she was a child, so she and I really owe her a little bit of this." ”

"No, sister, one more sentence."

"I said that you and Shishi are the same age......"

"Yes, that's it." Gu Bei was almost moved to tears, for the first time he felt so young, "Sister, you are so good." ”

"What?" Nangong Xiaokong was a little dizzy, and didn't understand what Gu Bei was talking about.

Master Liu walked for a while, and found that Gu Bei didn't follow, so he immediately shouted: "Hurry up, villain!" ”

Gu Bei heard the little girl's call, and hurriedly chased after her, leaving Nangong Xiaokong standing in place, pondering for a while, but still didn't think clearly what Gu Bei was talking about......

"Let's go, I'll take you to conquer the vegetable market!" Gu Bei walked next to Master Liu and threw down a bold word.

"I don't want to go."

"Huh?" Gu Bei stopped and looked at Master Liu, "Didn't you say that you would go with me?" ”

"I didn't say I wasn't going." Master Liu pursed his lips, "But you have to carry me." ”

"......" Gu Bei suspected that he had misheard, and asked uncertainly, "What did you say?" ”

"I say! Badass, I'm tired, you carry me! The little girl put her hand in front of Z's mouth and shouted loudly.

"How long has it been...... You're a girl! Gu Bei squatted down scoldingly, and said in a very unhappy tone, "Hurry up, come up!" ”

"Hee-hee!" Master Liu laughed happily, his two eyes bent into crescents, and he jumped and lay on Gu Bei's back, "Hurry up!" ”

……

Gu Bei, who respected the old and loved the young, was bullied all the way by Master Liu, and when he came back, Gu Bei was carrying a lot of things in his hands, and Master Liu was also very sensible, so he took the initiative to take a few things, but he was lying on Gu Bei's back and carrying them.

As soon as Gu Bei, who was already tired enough, arrived downstairs, he saw the old man walking out quickly, and looked at Master Liu with a distressed expression: "Master, why are you carrying so many things?" Isn't it okay to let the stinky boy carry it? ”

Gu Bei almost didn't take a breath to carry it, put Master Liu down, and looked at the old man Nangong very "sad and angry": "Old man, can you be a person?" ”

The old man of Nangong decisively ignored Gu Bei's "dissatisfaction", and pretended to have just discovered Gu Bei: "Ah, Xiaobei, when did you come?" ”

Taking a deep breath, Gu Bei looked at the face of the young beast, didn't break with the old man, turned around and went into the kitchen: "Brother-in-law, I'll help you." ”

"Can cook?"

"I used to do it myself when I was alone, well, it was pretty good." Gu Bei is very natural in front of the old man's family, and he will not think about modesty.

"Okay, handle this fish and cut a flower knife."

Immediately after, Gu Bei and Liu Zhongqiu were busy in the kitchen, chatting while cooking, Gu Bei felt very relaxed, and everything around him was very natural.

The old man came in from time to time to pick thorns, picking on Gu Bei's, saying that this was not in place, and it still needed to be improved, and before leaving, he also grabbed a piece of Gu Bei's freshly made dish and ate it while walking.

Master Liu also often ran to the door of the kitchen, looked at his father and Gu Bei, and did not speak.

Nangong Xiaokong was doing the year-end cleaning, and the corners of the living room and bedroom were cleaned.

Busy, Gu Bei smiled unconsciously, smiling all day, Gu Bei felt the feeling that his parents were still here, let Gu Bei miss it abnormally, patiently sniffing every trace of the Chinese New Year's Eve of 98, very warm, in this February snow season brought Gu Bei a feeling of home.

The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was enjoyed and eaten, under the joint cooperation of Gu Bei and Liu Zhongqiu, an extremely rich Chinese New Year's Eve meal, and the color and fragrance were complete, Gu Bei himself ate two more bowls of rice than usual, and hiccups several times, without caring about the image, and was also pinched by Master Liu and disgusted for a while.

Before the Spring Festival Gala began, the old man ran to his room, and after a while, he took out two red envelopes and handed one of them to Master Liu: "Master, in the coming year, you will look beautiful!" ”

"Thank you, grandpa! Grandpa will also be healthy and live a long life! Master Liu smiled brightly, and gave the old man advice very sensibly.

Immediately after, the old man walked up to Gu Bei: "Stinky boy, call grandpa, send you a red envelope, be happy." ”

Gu Bei chose to remain silent.

"Or just like the teacher, call grandpa."

Gu Bei chose to remain silent.

"Don't call it, forget it, Bai Zai bread is a hundred dollars."

Hearing this, Gu Bei cracked his mouth and smiled: "Grandpa! ”
