The time in the two-person world is always fast, and when the Lantern Festival is approaching, despite Meng Chilang's reluctance, he quickly accompanied Zhao Lingyu to pack his luggage and rushed back to Haicheng.

When I came here, I brought three big boxes, but when I came back, the three big boxes were still full.

The relatives gave too many gifts, and it was impossible to keep them in their hometown. Meng Chilang couldn't do such a disappointing thing, so he brought them back intact.

When Zhao Lingyu arrived home, the old man caught him and said, "Remember to ask Meng Meng to go home tomorrow and have a meal together." The gift, because of that unpleasant experience, has not been sent yet, and it is just waiting for the fifteenth day.

Zhao Lingyu knew what the gift he was thinking of giving was, so he stopped going back upstairs to rest.

grandfather.

He yelled, and when the old man stared at his mouth, he remembered the fact that Ying Jie was not around at this time.So I found a pen and paper, and wrote: He is a normal man, I won't like it.

As long as he can remember, his grandfather has told him more than once or twice that the set of jewelry left by his grandmother was said to be used by his grandson to marry a wife in the future, for fear of what Zhao Lingyu would suffer if his parents were not around. Wronged.The old man has always kept it in his heart, and when he thinks of his wife, he always unconsciously babbles about the ownership of that set of jewelry, and has unlimited expectations for his future.

However, it seems that this matter will leave regrets.

The old man gave him a sideways look, it's hard for him to remember this! "My eyesight is good, go and go, you boy, don't be an eyesore in front of me." After a pause, the old man said again: "In the future, drink more Mengmeng and come home. You two pairs of chopsticks are not missing."

In fact, the old man could also understand his grandson's sign language, but Ying Jie was by his side. Even the old man was used to communicating with his grandson alone, and suddenly lost the channel. Seeing his grandson writing, he felt very uncomfortable.

However, thinking of the way he and Meng Xiaozi usually get along, the old man's brows soon relaxed again.Perhaps, in the future, the grandson's daughter-in-law will completely replace Ying Jie's existence, and that kid will be old enough to start a family and start a business.Thinking about it this way, the old man was quite happy.

Looking up at his grandson and still watching his reaction, he pretended to be impatient and drove the exhausted grandson back upstairs to wash and rest.

This kid knew that he was not familiar with raising him, so he didn't know what would happen in the future.

No, I went out with my daughter-in-law for several days during the New Year's Eve, and I finally got him back. Now that I got off the airport, I rushed home with her, and even wasted the lunch I prepared. Is it plausible?

What's even more disappointing is that he returned home alone.

Fortunately, I still remembered to bring him a gift, but it must be Meng Xiaozi's wish.Glancing at his grandson's back, the old man quickly threw away his cane, and began to unpack the gift box that he loved not to look at just now. He was very satisfied when he saw a inkstone inside, so he asked the housekeeper to prepare some for Meng Chilang. A few things were added to the list of greetings.

Meng Chilang got the news early in the morning.

Seeing that it was a video call, Meng's father and mother also knew that Zhao Lingyu was on the other end of the phone. Seeing that his son's face changed slightly, they asked him what was wrong.

Meng Chilang was concentrating on thinking about what gift he wanted when he returned to Zhao's house. This was a big deal, and he couldn't deal with it casually like he was fooled by Zhao Lingyu last time. Although he had met the old man many times, the old man was also very kind to him. Chi Lang was still a little nervous, thinking about it with special care.

Seeing his parents asking about it, Meng Chilang's eyes flickered slightly, his face showed just the right amount of apprehension, he couldn't help but say: "Grandpa Ling Yu asked me to have dinner at home today, I don't know what to bring."

Meng's father and mother were taken aback.

What kind of character is Zhao Lingyu's grandfather!The two juniors usually communicate with each other, but they have never heard of negotiating with people from the Zhao family. Now it is Mr. Zhao who personally said that he wants his son to come to the door. Even though it is a common meal, the couple can't help but worry .

Meng's mother said: "You child, why didn't you tell me earlier, mother went to see if there is any gift at home." She didn't care about eating, and hurriedly went to the storage room to sort things out.

Father Meng didn't stop him either. He sized up his son rather obscurely, and after a moment of silence, Father Meng asked, "It was Zhao Lingyu who brought you to meet his grandfather?"

His question was expected, Meng Chilang still had food in his mouth, he said something vaguely, but was interrupted by his father, who stared at him and asked him to swallow the food before eating.

He didn't understand. Although the family's education implements the free-range policy, his son has always paid attention to table manners under his wife's precepts and deeds. There is a set of table manners, and his son's performance made him worry for a while about whether he would use his chopsticks neatly or not. When did he become more and more casual.

Looking at his son more, seeing him getting bigger and more delicate, Dad Meng felt a little helpless.

Meng Chilang said: "A few years ago he asked his grandfather to prepare a few sets of Tang suits for the Chinese New Year. We met at that time." Meng Chilang distorted some of the facts, but it is true that he became the grandfather's personal designer.

"You kid, why don't you ever tell your father?"

"What's there to say..." Seeing his father's displeasure, Meng Chilang smiled heartlessly, "Dad, don't worry, his grandpa is fine, don't worry."

"After all, he is an elder, and even if you and Ling Yu are friends, his family is still his family, you don't want to meddle in other people's affairs, you know?" A family like the Zhao family is not something they can climb high, and Meng Hui is a shopping mall. A rare sober person in the world, he is not a bit happy that his son is favored by Mr. Zhao.

"Dad, you're overthinking. You also said that Ling Yu and I are friends, and my friend's grandfather is naturally my grandfather." Seeing that his father wanted to say something, Meng Chi hurriedly said, "Does this have anything to do with their family?" Money doesn't matter. Your son and I are not people who are short of money, and our family is not in debt to others, why do we have to be careful with others?"

"Besides, grandpa is getting old, and it's boring to stay at home alone without anyone to accompany him, so he wants me to go and talk to him. He takes good care of me, and I like him very much, treating him like my own grandfather. So, Dad, don't engage in that conspiracy."

Grandpa shouted very naturally, and Dad Meng laughed and cursed.Of course he is not a conspiracy theorist. After all, Mr. Zhao is involved. It is impossible to have any thoughts about their little Meng family. He is afraid that if his son is favored by the old man, he will inevitably make trouble for him and worry about him. .

Mother Meng's focus was completely different from that of the old man. After asking her son a few more questions, she also felt kind to the old man.She has never gotten along with her in-laws, but they have always been kind to him. Taking care of her parents these days, she has her own way of getting along with the elderly.

Seeing how her parents are old and late, with weird tempers and at the same time deeply dependent on her, she is not without sadness.No matter how great the dissatisfaction and complaints are, they can't match the sharp weapon of time. The people she once admired, admired, and complained about at night are now ruthlessly drained by the years, leaving only the reluctance and helplessness of lingering sickness.

Hearing that the old man and his sons and grandchildren did not live in the same place, Mother Meng felt sorry for her, and told her how the old man was so kind and amiable, and how when the old man was in a temper, she pulled Meng Chi and said earnestly, "You child, you don't have any problems." How to get along with the elderly. My mother told you that you must be patient and follow them. They don’t want much, they just want someone to talk to. You can see that the children in his family are busy with their own careers. It is inevitable that we have neglected the elderly. Although we are outsiders, we should help Ling Yu and accompany the elderly when we have the opportunity. He takes care of you like this, and also takes care of our family. His grandfather is just like your grandfather. You must be filial to the elderly, you know ?"

Meng Chilang frowned, and nodded with his arms around his mother's shoulders.

"Mom, I heard from Ling Yu that his grandma used to be very good at making dumplings, and made them every year and festival. Grandpa loved to eat stuffed mushrooms and vegetables. I heard that he could eat several catties in one sitting. But after his grandma passed away, the old man ate dumplings. There will be less ones, mom makes the best dumplings, if I have a chance in the future, I will make one for grandpa?"

Upon hearing this, Meng's mother stood up immediately: "What are you waiting for, I'll go now."

"Mom, everyone is eating Yuanxiao today."

"...That's true, it's too late to do it now. You child, why didn't you say it earlier." As he spoke, he began to rummage through the gifts he had prepared. Before, he felt that it was not decent enough, but now I feel that nothing is enough.

Meng Chilang looked at it and smiled.

His mother is indeed the cutest mother in the world, even nagging makes him feel very warm.

Turning around, he met his father's thoughtful gaze.His father didn't say much at the moment, but when he helped his son get the gift into the car, he showed a very gratified smile on his face, patted his son on the shoulder and said, "Dad is very happy that you can understand these principles. But, this Just put your heart into this kind of thing, don't be deliberate, you know?"

Meng Chilang didn't understand it, and he wouldn't feel sorry until he was halfway.He couldn't laugh or cry at the moment, how could his father think that he was enlightened and knew how to manage contacts for the future development of the family?This is... Forget it, this imagination is really harmless so far.

Meng Chilang didn't ask Zhao Lingyu to pick him up this time, and he went back and forth a lot. Moreover, he felt that it was more meaningful for Zhao Lingyu to stay with the old man at home during such a time.

But he didn't know that Zhao Lingyu was waiting at home but absent-minded.

Seeing his worthless appearance, Mr. Zhao expressed full contempt.Uncle Dong went outside to look at it several times in the morning. He could feel the slightly tense nerves on Zhao Lingyu's body. Although he didn't know why, it was inevitably affected. He also hoped that Meng Chilang would arrive sooner.

The sound of a car came from the yard, and Zhao Lingyu stood up abruptly. Seeing that it was Meng Chilang's car, he visibly relaxed.He didn't even realize it. He had fear and resistance deep in his heart about Meng Chilang driving alone.

And this kind of mood has gradually turned into a disguised dependence over the years, even if this person is not in front of him for a quarter of an hour, he can be worried.

This is probably because we have lived together for a long time, and we are also used to being tossed around by one person day and night. The days are filled with a person's voice and smile all the time, and we are separated suddenly. A bond that belongs exclusively to your partner.

"Why did you come out?"

Meng Chilang glanced at Zhao's house with his head, and didn't think there was anything wrong with Zhao Lingyu taking the initiative to take his big and small bags. Seeing Uncle Dong greet him, he left Zhao Lingyu with a smile and walked over first.

"Uncle Dong." As soon as his voice sounded, the old man happily called his name.

"Grandpa." Meng Chilang was exceptionally well-behaved, and went to talk to the old man.Zhao Lingyu then came over with the things, and before he had time to hand them over to Uncle Dong, the old man said that he would take the things over there.

The old man had never seen anything, but he was very satisfied with these small gifts brought by Meng Chilang. He deliberately picked two of them for Uncle Dong to put in his study. His satisfaction with Meng Chilang was not stingy in words or actions. .

Uncle Dong took the things, made a sympathetic expression to the rare helpless Zhao Lingyu, pointed to the old man, and said in a low voice: "Your grandfather, the past two years have been really... eh, Xiaomeng also brought me something. , Really, didn’t you already give a share yesterday? You, go back and talk to him, go back to your own home, don’t be so restrained, that child is not a restrained temperament, you can talk to him well. "

Zhao Lingyu nodded, and Uncle Dong didn't think about his attitude towards Meng Chilang, and he didn't give up too much.

The old man yelled again: "Hey, what are you talking about, come here quickly."

Zhao Lingyu laughed, and took the things in Uncle Dong's hands again, asked him to sit down, and started to pack it up by himself. This action surprised Uncle Dong a little, and soon Lao Huai comforted him. laughed.

This kid... is becoming more and more humane.

Good thing, good thing!

Meng Chilang stayed at Zhao's house, and the old man had a lot of conversations with him. In a few words, he remembered the past, especially the days when Grandma Zhao was there.Listening to what he said about the past, Meng Chilang wasn't impatient at all. He listened and conceived an old but enduring story in his mind. There was a touch of nostalgia, but it didn't make people sad.

This is really enviable. He suddenly felt that Zhao Lingyu was very similar to Mr. Zhao in some respects, or in other words, the Zhao family had such genes.

Dedicated, warm and reliable.

People who can be loved by them are really lucky, and I am one of them.

The old man finally delivered the things by himself, and the old man finally kept the set of jewelry for himself, and what he gave to Meng Chilang was a jade necklace.It looks very old, and must always be worn by people, with a warm luster, and it is not vulgar at first glance.

The old man told him not to dislike it. Meng Chilang could see how much he cherished this jade necklace, and looked back at Zhao Lingyu with some uncertainty.

Zhao Lingyu asked him to accept it.

He remembered this thing, the old man kept it with him all year round, and his uncle mentioned that it was the dowry given to his grandma by the family when the old man married his grandma.

His grandma is not from a wealthy family, this thing is quite old, and the jade seed is actually common, but it is their family heirloom. When grandma married, she was afraid that she would be underestimated, so she bought all kinds of treasures for her with all her heart and soul.

This jade necklace was taught to him by his grandfather's father-in-law on their wedding night, and he said in a threatening tone that it was tied with the heroic souls of dozens of generations of his royal family's ancestors, and they all looked at him. I'm sorry for my daughter, and I will try my best to get it back.

But now that it was given to Meng Chilang, the meaning is self-evident.

Meng Chilang didn't know the reason, but he held the things tightly in his palm, and said softly to the nagging old man, "Grandpa, don't worry too much about my house, he and I will take care of it."

The old man gave him recognition, and he knew that nothing could repay the old man's painstaking efforts better than his own attitude towards Zhao Lingyu.
