"Hey, Chen Xi, it seems like you haven't seen your grandfather for a long time, you have so much free time now, and you don't have to do things for that department in the United States, why don't you go back? Let's go back and live for a while, it's not a good phenomenon to stay in a girl's house all the time. ”

Taichen saw that the carpet in his villa was always lifted, and it took several workers to tidy it up; Many precious vases were smashed by him practicing air control; The electrical circuits of the villa are repaired daily...... He really had a little headache, and he was too embarrassed to refuse directly, so he could only encourage him to go to his grandfather's house, so that this castle-like villa could be restored to its due tranquility.

"yes, I almost forgot, I haven't been back to my grandfather's house for a long time." Chen Xi was really a little ashamed to think about it. Actually, it's not that he's unfilial, or anything else, it's just that he's keeping himself too busy.

Chen Xi looked at the calendar, calculated, and suddenly found that it was already February 4th, which is the day of the Chinese New Year! Thinking that New York was later than in China, and it should be the Chinese New Year's Eve at home in China, he quickly called home.

There is no telephone in Taichen's villa! Chen Xi had no choice but to use her mobile phone to make international calls.

When I went home, my parents were very happy, and naturally they were very happy and worried. Chen Xi also used prepared words to tell them that he was developing well in New York, and his son would try to earn a little more money from foreigners to go back to his parents to spend.

Thinking that he didn't send money home to his parents during the Chinese New Year, Chen Xi couldn't help but feel very ashamed, even his parents had forgotten, what was the use of making millions? He immediately went to send a sum of money home. Although sending money does not mean filial piety, it is not even as good as making a phone call, but thousands of miles away, the most practical thing to do is to send some money. Of course, Chen Xi didn't dare to send too much money, it would make his parents uneasy.

Chen Xi invited Taichen to go back to his grandfather's house with him for the New Year, but Taichen did not agree, but just urged him to go back quickly. Chen Xi didn't say anything to Xuelisi, but just told them that he was going back to his grandfather and had something to call them.

Originally, he wanted to borrow a high-end sports car from Taichen or Shiris to drive it back, which would definitely be very face-saving, but after thinking about it, this is not his own car after all, and it is better not to borrow face, if you want to drive a high-end sports car, you have to earn one with your own ability. And now I drive back in such a high-end car so quickly, I'm afraid that my grandfather will wonder if he has joined the gang, or drug trafficking and smuggling or something.

Chen Xi returned to Chinatown, which was already full of lights and festive atmosphere, and many foreigners also came to Chinatown to join in the fun, they wanted to feel the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year, and the mainstream colors of the Chinese New Year with bright colors also made them dizzy.

Today's Chinatown is not a street, but a large Chinese community, and the police in this area are also busy in the past few days to celebrate the Spring Festival, and have sent more people to patrol. The fire brigade also prepared fire trucks because they knew that the Chinese liked to play "fire yao games" (firecrackers).

Although he said that he was in a foreign country and forgot that today was the Chinese New Year, when he entered Chinatown, Chen Xi quickly felt the atmosphere of the New Year, which was even more lively than the Chinese New Year in China. The Chinese New Year is diluting the traditional customs and atmosphere year by year, and it feels more and more simple.

And these overseas Chinese, probably the pace of life is too fast, and it is rare to have the opportunity to relax themselves, but they are homesick, so they seem to be extraordinarily devoted. Even in the streets and communities of Chinatown, everyone is in a hurry and unfamiliar with the road, but now all Chinese people are full of smiles, and everyone will greet and bless them with a smile when they see compatriots they don't know.

Chen Xi didn't prepare any gifts, just bought some high-quality Longjing tea, as well as some traditional rice wine and pastries, and returned to his grandfather's house after a long absence.

Chen Xi still had the key, he didn't knock on the door, he opened the door and went in.

Entering the living room, Chen Xi couldn't help but be a little surprised, because someone inside was talking to his grandfather. It can't be grandpa's girlfriend, right? Feeling a little ironic, he walked in and took a closer look at the people inside.

In the living room, Chen Anzhi was watching TV with a young girl, and when they found Chen Xi coming in, they were a little surprised and raised their heads.

Chen Xi saw the people inside clearly, and couldn't help but be stunned, it shouldn't be grandpa's girlfriend, it's too tender! Who is it?

"Chen Xi, you're back!" Chen Anzhi stood up a little excited when he saw his grandson, who had not seen him for more than half a year.

"Grandpa." Chen Xi screamed, put down his things, and walked over.

"Look, who is this? Do you still recognize it? This is the young lady of Grandpa Fang's family, Fang Yu'er. We're watching the videos they took you before! Chen Anzhi saw that Chen Xi couldn't recognize Fang Yu'er anymore, and was afraid that he would be embarrassed, so he took the initiative to introduce him.

In the footage of the videotape shown on TV, the little girl Fang Yuer was hugging Chen Xi's neck and shouting: "Brother Chen Xi! ”

Chen Xi looked at the TV, and then at the beautiful young girl in front of him, he really felt incredible. He said, "Hello, I really didn't expect it." ”

Fang Yu'er was also taken aback when she saw Chen Xi, in a few years, everyone has changed a lot. The former thin teenager has become tall and handsome, and after all kinds of training, there is a kind of maturity that his peers do not have.

Fang Yu'er said a little embarrassed: "Hello." But she soon laughed again, "Brother Chen Xi, what didn't you expect?" Didn't expect me to come to the United States? Or didn't you expect me to come to your house? ”

In the past, she was a little girl, called Brother Chen Xi, and there was nothing wrong with her. But now that everyone has grown up, hearing Fang Yu'er still calling Brother Chen Xi, Chen Xi couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and said after a while: "I didn't expect that yellow-haired girl to grow so big and look so beautiful, if you meet outside, you must not recognize it." ”

Although Chen Anzhi was very happy to see Chen Xi come back, when he saw the two of them chatting together, he walked away with interest, "Today's New Year, let you see grandpa's cooking skills!" Let's talk for a while, Chen Xi, and greet Yu'er. ”

Chen Anzhi entered the kitchen, Chen Xi took the pastry and said a few polite words.

Although they knew each other a few years ago, they were not very familiar friends after all, and now they haven't seen each other for a few years, and the environment in which everyone lives and grows up is completely different, so after the politeness, Chen Xi has nothing to say.

The two stared at the TV, looking at the videos they had taken before, and couldn't help but feel funny.

"It was so much fun back then." Fang Yuer recalled.

"yes, carefree." Chen Xi was even more emotional, it was since then that he began another turning point.

"Later, I went back with my grandfather, and I heard that ...... You ......" Fang Yu'er looked at Chen Xi carefully, for fear of stimulating him.

Chen Xi smiled: "That's right, I went to prison." ”

So free-spirited? Fang Yu'er muttered in her heart, and asked in a low voice, "Can you tell me what happened?" Seeing Chen Xi look over, she added: "This is purely an offer, you can choose not to answer." ”

"There's nothing inconvenient to answer," Chen Xi easily recounted what had happened.

"Feeling...... It's a bit stupid! Fang Yu'er listened and said.

Chen Xi didn't care, "I also felt a little naïve and nervous later, but I was really afraid that my family would be implicated. And, maybe it was influenced by martial arts novels, I was very excited at the time, and I had a feeling of boldness and chivalry, isn't it a bit perverted? ”

"It's okay...... Fang Yu'er looked at Chen Xi's somewhat mature face, and said softly: "Is it because of this, you are not easy to mix in the mainland, so you came to the United States?" ”

The expression on Chen Xi's face froze for a few seconds, Fang Yu'er didn't know if it hurt his self-esteem, so he didn't dare to speak out again.

Suddenly, Chen Xi smiled again, "Of course not, how can it be difficult to mix?" I just think that Americans are always making money from other countries, whether it's movies, music, software, etc...... To make money from the whole world, I should also come to make a little money from the United States, no, as much money as I can. Just like the Jews, they use the United States to make money all over the world. ”

"Bragging, how much money did you get from coming to the United States for so long?"

"It's just starting now, I'm going to make a lot of money in the future, and a lot of Americans are waiting for me to make their money! How did you come to the United States? Chen Xi didn't want to talk about himself all the time.

"Read. I'm currently in college in the United States. Fang Yu'er has a good academic performance, and after completing the course of junior high school in Taiwan, she will study at a university in the United States.

The two chatted about some of their respective situations and hobbies, and when it was time to eat, they began to get acquainted. Chen Anzhi's cooking is really good, but he was afraid that his old man's taste would not be suitable for young people, so he fried a few dishes by himself, and at the same time ordered some dishes from the Chinese restaurant outside.

There were outsiders, and Chen Anzhi didn't ask Chen Xi about his recent situation, everyone just happily talked about some trivial and interesting things.

After dinner, Fang Yuer said that she wanted to go back to school, and Chen Anzhi asked Chen Xi to send her back. Chen Xi sent Fang Yu'er outside, it was already night, but everywhere was full of festive colors, many people had fun on the street, including traditional firecrackers, fireworks, lantern riddles, etc., as well as dragon dances, lion dances and other performances.

"Hehe, Brother Chen Xi, do you really want to send me back to school?" Fang Yu'er looked at Chen Xi with a smile.

"Of course, but you can play for a while, tonight is the New Year, you should let everything go and play." Chen Xi looked at her deeply.

Fang Yu'er looked like she was smiling and then asked, "What if it's not the New Year?" Will you play with me? ”

"Of course." Chen Xi's sharp eyes looked at Fang Yu'er's eyes, and he added something in his words, "If you are really Yu'er." ”

"Oh? How do you think I'm not Yu'er? We haven't seen each other for so long, so it's normal to change a little! Fang Yu'er raised her eyebrows.

"Really? That could be that I'm a bit neurotic and I suspect someone is cheating on my grandpa. Chen Xi said calmly. Although there are many things to learn about secret agents, the most basic thing is to be skeptical, and don't trust anyone too much.
