"Neither." The servant continued to shake his head, rejecting Ye Ningbai's guess.

Turning his head and thinking about it for a while, the maid simply described to Ye Ningbai, "I'm a little old, maybe fifty." He's an old man, but he still looks tough. ”

Listening to the maid's description, Ye Ningbai searched in his mind, but to no avail. There are very few people of this age in the circle she comes into contact with.

Ye Ningbai's thoughtful expression fell into the eyes of the servant, but she didn't say anything, just waited quietly.

Two minutes later, Ye Ningbai turned his head and asked the servant with doubts, "Then how did he get in?" ”

"Ah, yes, I almost forgot about this." The servant, as if he had made some great discovery, said in surprise, "He has an old photograph of him with his wife's father. ”

In the villa, at the corner of the stairs, there is a photo wall, which was designed by Ye Ningbai himself. There are pictures of loved ones, friends. Those are full of memories.

The maid naturally knew what Ye Ningbai's father looked like. She's not going to let people in.

Hearing such an important factor, after thinking about it, Ye Ningbai seemed to have a little bit of confidence in his heart. However, I still don't know for sure.

Ye Ningbai didn't say anything more, walked in front, and the maid followed obediently.

Walking to the living room, Ye Ningbai saw the person sitting at the six-person square table at a glance, it was Uncle Zhang, she had never forgotten it.

"Uncle Zhang!" Ye Ningbai was a little excited, her tone changed, and even she didn't notice it.

Hearing a familiar voice calling, the seated person immediately got up and turned to the source of the sound.

"Don't come unharmed, Ningbai."

Uncle Zhang looked at the slim Ye Ningbai, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was really the eighteenth change of the female university. "I didn't expect you to grow so big in a blink of an eye. When I came, I was worried about whether you would remember me. ”

Listening to Uncle Zhang's joke, Ye Ningbai couldn't help laughing. walked up to him, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to invite Uncle Zhang to sit down, "When I was a child, Uncle Zhang treated me well, just like his own daughter, how could I forget you." ”

"Alas, it's really old, and when I see you, I think of the days when I was at home. At that time, you were only so tall, and now you are so capable. Uncle Zhang said as he gestured. Looking around, this huge villa has a unique décor, low-key luxury, concise and concise, and it will never make you feel that there is anything missing here.

Looking at such a unique interior decoration, when Uncle Zhang fell his eyes on Ye Ningbai again, he inexplicably felt that the atmosphere of the villa and the owner was very harmonious, as if they were integrated.

Once, Uncle Zhang and Ye Ningbai's father worked as servants in the An family together, and in a blink of an eye, many years have passed. Ye Ningbai actually had such a family background on his own. Uncle Zhang had to sigh, "It's really terrifying!" ”

Uncle Zhang laughed. Ye Ningbai didn't want to say too much about this, she didn't know Uncle Zhang's situation now, and she was afraid that saying it would make people feel uncomfortable. Turning his head and instructing the servant, "Go and ask the driver to pick up Rui Xuan and tell him that he is a friend of his grandfather." ”

"Yes, ma'am." The servant agreed, turned and went out.

"Ning Bai is already married?" Uncle Zhang was a little surprised, but it was more of a joy. It's like watching your children start a family. There is an inexplicable feeling of indescribable fulfillment. Thinking like this, Uncle Zhang's nose couldn't help but feel slightly sour.

"Well, it's a boy, it's cute, it's a little mischievous, but I think you'll be happy to meet him." Ye Ningbai always remembered the scene when he was a child in Anjia and was pampered by his father and Uncle Zhang. She will never forget the people who helped her.

"Well, I think that little guy must be very much like you, smart and capable." Uncle Zhang seems to have imagined the appearance of Ye Ningbai's son. must be a child like Ye Ningbai, resolute, stubborn, and strong.

"Uncle Zhang, what have you been doing lately? How long do you plan to stay here? Ye Ningbai had already finished looking at Uncle Zhang as she spoke, and she intuitively felt that Uncle Zhang was living a very ordinary life. Uncle Zhang is the warmth of her childhood, and now she has some abilities, and she hopes that Uncle Zhang's old age can be better.

Faced with this problem, Uncle Zhang lowered his eyes slightly, and seemed to be a little unsatisfactory. He let out a long sigh, then raised his head to look at Ye Ningbai again, and then said slowly, "Actually, back then, after you left the An family, I left the An family with me. It feels like once you're gone, there's no point in staying home. ”

Ye Ning looked at Uncle Zhang intently, and listened quietly to him and continued, "After I left, I took two friends out to make a living and do some small business casually. It's just that it's a little unsatisfactory. Make a noise with your friends, and you won't have to argue. Some things are really unclear, and in the end, they will not be resolved. ”

"Let's do it yourself, it won't be long. Business is not easy to do, and now many officials and officials are protecting each other, and those of us who buy and sell small books will also be affected by the pond fish. Seeing that there was no hope, he came back. ”

"Well, Uncle Zhang has also been tired all these years. It's true these days, no matter what you do, it's not easy to do. Many things cannot be solved with money, and it is difficult to move an inch without connections. Ye Ningbai seemed to have some empathy.

"yes, business isn't going well, so I'm back. However, I didn't think about going back to settle down. "It's easy to get out, but it's hard to stay in again. After all, after so many years, people may have changed several batches of people.

"How did Uncle Zhang find me?" Ye Ningbai was a little curious, could it be that he had any other friends?

"Is your new store open, I see it. Then I asked someone and came to you with a photo. It's rare to come back and have someone you know, so I stopped by to see you. Between Uncle Zhang's words, there seemed to be a feeling of old age.

"Well, thank you Uncle Zhang for your concern. I've had a good life over the years. If Uncle Zhang doesn't have anything important, stay here for a while. Rui Xuan has grown so big, Uncle Zhang, you haven't even taken a good look at him. Ye Ningbai wanted to leave Uncle Zhang for the time being, and then find a way to arrange for him to do something, try to let him spend his old age in peace, and don't go out alone and try every possible way to solve the problem of food and clothing.

After working hard outside for so long, Ye Ningbai couldn't be clearer. Now the world has changed, no matter who it is, without mutual benefit, it will not be possible to go together at all. However, how can there be an eternal and unchanging principle in this world, isn't it all that must be divided for a long time, and must be united for a long time?

"I thought I'd come to see you first, and I didn't have any other plans yet. I'm just a lonely old man, and I go the same everywhere. When Uncle Zhang said this, his mood couldn't help but be a little low.

Seeing that the meal was ordered, Ye Ningbai insisted on keeping Uncle Zhang, "Uncle Zhang, stay and eat together." ”

"Well, we haven't seen each other in a long time. I'd also love to see what Rui Xuan looks like. "For Uncle Zhang, Ye Ningbai is equivalent to his daughter, and that Gong Ruixuan is like a grandson. Now, he is alone, but like other old people, he wants to enjoy the joy of family.

"Uncle Zhang, is there anything you particularly want to eat? I'll have someone do it for you. Ye Ningbai knows very well that after a certain age, people can no longer eat and drink like they did when they were young, and they are not so taboo. Now, for many reasons, many things are not edible.

"It's nothing, it's good to have less oil and less salt, people, I'm old, and some of them are useless." Uncle Zhang said self-deprecatingly.

"Why, don't you advocate eating like this now? Eat a healthy diet. Uncle Zhang is not old, not old at all. Ye Ningbai smiled and said nice things.

"Haha, as long as you can talk, it's the same as when you were a child." Hearing Ye Ningbai say this, Uncle Zhang didn't feel false at all, but smiled happily. He didn't seem to laugh much in a long time.

In between the two talking, Ye Ningbai instructed the servant to cook a sumptuous dinner to entertain Uncle Zhang.

When the two chatted from their parents to the north and south, Gong Ruixuan was picked up by the driver.

"Mom!" Before anyone appeared, they heard Gong Ruixuan's shout.

"Rui Xuan, come on! Look who this is! Ye Ningbai bent down and caught Gong Ruixuan who pounced steadily. And hold out your finger to show him.

Uncle Zhang looked at Gong Ruixuan's red face, as if he saw Ye Ningbai's appearance when he was a child, he couldn't help but be a little excited, and said with a smile, "This little guy is quite clever, just like when you were a child." ”

"Rui Xuan, this is my mother's uncle, you have to call grandpa." Ye Ningbai slowly said to Gong Ruixuan word by word.

"Hmm." Gong Ruixuan seemed to be a little nervous when he saw the living. rubbing back and forth in Ye Ningbai's arms, he didn't dare to move forward.

"Good, go over and let grandpa hug you." Ye Ningbai gently pushed Gong Ruixuan.

Glancing at Ye Ningbai, Gong Ruixuan hesitated and trotted towards Uncle Zhang. Uncle Zhang had already squatted down and opened his arm to hug him. I hugged it and smiled from ear to ear.

At this time, Ye Ningbai said the thought that suddenly rose in his heart, "Uncle Zhang, in fact, I have a reluctant request, I have been busy recently. There is no one to take care of him at home, especially Gong Ruixuan, he is still young, and he can't do without people around him. ”

"Ning Bai, you have something to say, we are not outsiders." Uncle Zhang hugged Gong Ruixuan, looking at Ye Ningbai's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, his brows furrowed instantly, feeling that Ye Ningbai regarded him as an outsider.

"I want to ask Uncle Zhang to stay and be my housekeeper. In this way, you don't have to be displaced, we can also be together, not to mention, you like Gong Ruixuan so much. Uncle Zhang, what do you think? Ye Ningbai said it all.

Looking at Gong Ruixuan in his arms, Uncle Zhang really liked this little bit, he was very grateful to Ye Ningbai for this move, so he agreed, "Okay, I'll stay." ”
