Chapter 64: The Visitation
After sending Wang Pingzhao away, Su Changqing sat in the rocking chair, touched the soft hair of the little black cat, recalled what he said before, and was a little distracted.
"Old man, it's not a good idea for you to stay at home all day, why don't you go out with me for two days?"
Su Changqing can't deny that this proposal is very exciting to him, he has spent most of his life, the last life was a mess, and after having children and grandchildren in this life, he worries about it, and now he returns to the old mansion to enjoy his old age, but he has never toured the country with a playful mentality for so many years, which can not be described as a pity.
It's just that it costs money to go out to play, and he is so old that he is not suitable for the poor self-driving tour that young people like, but it is more suitable for following a tour group.
Su Changqing closed his eyes and silently calculated how much property he still had.
...... Less than 10,000 yuan.
Although now that the rice produced by the system can save him money to buy rice, only vegetables and meat are also an expense, and Su Changqing is afraid that his family will have no money to use after returning from travel.
With a sigh, Su Changqing silently dispelled the idea of traveling in his heart.
It was about to be dinner, and Su Changqing came to the kitchen with the bag of fish summoned by Wang Ping.
Scraping the fish scales clean, Su Changqing broke the fish and opened his stomach, and in an instant, a fishy smell rushed straight to his nose, and the little black cat smelled this smell, and immediately meowed, squatting on the ground and looking up at the dead fish in Su Changqing's hand.
With a cat and a dog at home, it has become quite lively, and although they rarely quarrel, it is still interesting to watch the two of them occasionally lose their temper.
Today's dishes are sumptuous, Su Changqing only burned 3 fish, although this fish is said to be a few relatively large fish caught by Wang Pingzhao, but in fact it is not very big. So one plate can hold them.
The one with the largest leaves was given to him, and the middle one was given to himself, and the little black cat could only stare at the smallest dried fish in the bowl, and meowed angrily, wishing that it would be relieved to let its paws snatch the big fish in the leaf plate.
Although the leaves are quite friendly to her on weekdays, but now it is about her own food, of course she refuses to give in, and quickly pushes the porcelain bowl behind her, and then uses her huge body for a little black cat to block her eyes.
"Meow!"
The little black cat was very angry, and knew that he couldn't beat the other party, so he could only meow and rub Su Changqing's leg with a meek face. I want him to help her.
Su Changqing smiled, took a few bites of rice, and saw that he had almost eaten, so he hurriedly made half of the fish in the bowl and gave it to the little black cat.
The kitten, who got the fish, glanced at the leaves proudly, and then lowered his head and ate his own fish.
The leaves are not annoyed, and when they see that no one has come to grab their food, they are also smiling.
After watching a scene, Su Changqing was also full and was about to leave, when he suddenly felt something unusual in the system in his mind.
Su Changqing, who was accustomed to the sound of the system almost every day, also disagreed.

Seeing the extra task six, Su Changqing was a little silent.
It had been several days since that system mall came out, and since Su Changqing knew how to have this merit, he had never considered this issue again.
Now the system actually takes the initiative to issue a task about merit......
Su Changqing suddenly felt that the system he had was very strange, of course, he had discovered this kind of strangeness before, but now he found that this system was not the same as he thought before.
Rubbing the corners of his forehead, Su Changqing didn't hesitate for too long on this issue, after all, he was old, and he didn't know how long he could live.
He put away the dishes on the table and was about to take them to wash, but the mobile phone, which he had not heard once in a hundred years, rang for the first time, and it rang again and again, again and again.
I don't know why, hearing such a ringtone, Su Changqing inexplicably thought of Song Shuren, his great-grandson.
Wiping his hands, Su Changqing took the phone out of his pocket, and was stunned when he saw the caller ID on it.
Su Sheng.
With some hesitation, he pressed the answer button, and the other party's voice came out of the earpiece.
"Grandpa...... The day after tomorrow, Xiaoran's sister will get married...... Can you ......" over here.
Come over these two words, Su Sheng choked in his throat and couldn't spit them out for a long time.
Although the other party didn't say it, Su Changqing knew the purpose of Su Sheng's call.
After being silent for a while, he thought of the past this time, maybe he could see Song Shuren or Su Qingmei, and his heart that had fallen silent was suddenly pinched.
“...... Good. ”
As soon as Su Changqing's words fell, Su Sheng was overjoyed, and he stammered a little, "Thank you! Thank you! I, I'll pick you up at noon tomorrow!"
Hearing the faint panic in the other party's tone, Su Changqing softened his heart and nodded.
"Okay, I'll wait for you. ”
As soon as he said that, he hung up the phone.
The day after tomorrow is a wedding, Su Changqing thought about it, and planned to ask the factory owner for a leave.
This leave is very easy to ask, and I don't know why, Su Changqing heard in the tone of the factory owner that he wished to ask for leave.
But what about the boss who likes his subordinates to ask for leave frequently? Su Changqing thought about it, so he didn't care.
......
*
The time was fast approaching the next day.
It was another sunny day.
When Su Changqing woke up from the bed, it was already noon.
Su Sheng hadn't come over at this time.
As soon as he got up, he packed up his things, and when Su Sheng came over, he could leave.
Leaves and little black cats can't be brought there, so yesterday, Su Changqing had already asked Wang Pingzhao to help take a look, fortunately, the two of them were very well-behaved, and they didn't make noise or trouble when they were put in other people's homes.
The two of them also asked for money to eat, and Su Changqing couldn't let them eat other people's food for nothing, so he secretly stuffed 50 yuan to Wang Pingzhao.
Su Changqing didn't have anything to bring, just some bride price money and a change of clothes.
He had just been getting ready when he heard a knock on the door.
"It's coming!"
Su Changqing shouted, and greeted him with a cloth bag.
Outside the door was Su Sheng, who was looking at him with a worried face at this time.
"Grandpa......"
Su Changqing nodded, which was considered to be his words, and his tone was a little cold, "I'm ready." ”
"Have you eaten?" he closed the door and turned his head to look at Su Sheng.
"Eat. Su Sheng nodded, a little nervous.
Looking at his sincere and frightened appearance, Su Changqing sighed secretly, "...... Come in and have a cup of tea. ”
There is no good tea at home, and there is not much inferior tea left, so it is said to be drinking tea, but in fact, it is also drinking plain water.
The boiling water was still steaming, not piping hot, so Su Sheng simply drank it all, and at the end, quietly poured himself a glass of water.
"Do you want to rest for a while?"
Su Changqing asked.
It takes more than 2 hours to get here from the center of Shuishi, and if you drive for more than 4 hours in a row, I'm afraid it will not be very safe.
"Nope. Su Sheng shook his head.
Since the person concerned didn't want to rest, Su Changqing didn't persuade anymore, nodded and planned to go down the mountain directly with him.
