After eating a vegetarian lunch from Xihua Temple, I went around every place in the temple, and the two left after playing enough.

On the way back, Xi Lingyu answered a phone call.

"Lingyu, I heard from your grandfather that you brought your partner back to Jiang Lin?" The female voice on the phone sounded very hearty.

"Well, I came back yesterday." Xi Lingyu turned on the speakerphone, "Grandma, where are you now?"

Hearing this title, Lin Luoluo was a little surprised: Is this actually grandma?I thought it would be some aunt or cousin of the Fang family.

Grandma laughed twice: "Coincidentally, my plane just landed, do you have time tonight? Let's have a meal together."

"Want to have dinner with grandma?" Xi Lingyu asked.

"Okay." Lin Luoluo was very interested in this grandma who spoke so brightly.

Although Xi Lingyu mentioned grandma's decisiveness when she was arguing with Fang Ying before, Lin Luoluo never thought that grandma would have such a character.Whether Fang Ying or Xi Lingyu, none of them resembled grandma in character.

Grandma told the location and time on the phone, and when she heard the siren from here, she said, "Are you still on the way? Let's not chat for now, let's meet and talk."

After speaking, the phone was hung up over there.

Looking at the time, the two decided to go home, take a shower and change their clothes before going to the banquet.Xi Lingyu said that grandma doesn't like the smell of incense.

And according to the grandmother herself, one of the reasons for her divorce from her grandfather was that during the holidays, the Fang family's house was always filled with the smell of incense, and as the hostess, she had to be there all day, which made her very sad accurate.

After hearing Xi Lingyu's words, Lin Luoluo was a little dumbfounded: How could such a grandmother have such a daughter as Fang Ying?

Lin Luoluo, who became more and more curious about her grandmother, came out of the shower and began to match clothes in a hurry.

"Can I wear this set?" Holding up the clothes, Lin Luoluo asked and answered by herself, "Isn't it a little childish? What about this set?"

"Don't be so nervous." Xi Lingyu walked over, took the two sets of clothes from her hand and hung them in the closet, took another set of simple white pullover round neck sweaters, and came out with a plaid cashmere skirt, "Wear This body looks good."

"Ok."

After changing her clothes, Xi Lingyu shook the perfume bottle and said, "Would you like some? Although grandma doesn't like the smell of incense, she likes all kinds of perfumes."

"want!"

Probably because of his attitude when talking on the phone. Lin Luoluo always felt that among all relatives, Xi Lingyu and grandma should have the best relationship, so she subconsciously wanted to make a good impression in front of grandma.

Xi Lingyu also saw her thoughts. After spraying her with perfume, she brought a comb over and said, "Sit down, and I'll help you comb your hair."

Sitting obediently on the chair, Lin Luoluo let Xi Lingyu put her hair up, and the two strands left on the side were curled with a curling iron, which looked quite mature.

She found a pair of pearl earrings from her jewelry box and put them on for her. Xi Lingyu patted her on the shoulder: "Go and see how it goes."

The self in the mirror is a little strange, probably because the hair on both sides is paired with pearl earrings, which is a bit of the aesthetic style of Jiang Lin in the last century.Lin Luoluo felt that she looked like a person of the same age as her little aunt now.

The bun on the back is also matched with a ring of pearl hair accessories, and it is very harmonious with the white knitted top.

The little aunt's aesthetic is really good.Lin Luoluo thought: If I were to do it myself, I might not be able to achieve this effect.

This is why Lin Luoluo always likes to buy her brand of Mountain Stone.Although this store has been producing single products, it will recommend some single products every season, covering a variety of styles.When Lin Luoluo bought it, she directly liked which match she wanted, and if she bought the whole set, she didn't have to worry about it anymore.

"Are you ready?"

"En." Lin Luoluo turned around from the dressing mirror, "Let's go."

On the way, Lin Luoluo suddenly remembered: "We didn't prepare a gift for grandma!"

"It doesn't matter," Xi Lingyu said, "Grandma just came back today, and we don't have time to prepare anything. It is estimated that she will have to stay for a few days when she comes back. We will send it off when we go to see her alone in two days."

"Will grandma think I'm not sensible?"

"Grandma won't mind." Xi Lingyu glanced at the little girl's nervous expression from the corner of her eye, and said with a smile, "Why does it look like she is going to take an exam? Take it easy, grandma is easy to get along with. On the phone you I also heard that she is a very hearty old lady."

"En." Although she agreed, Lin Luoluo was still a little nervous.After all, I was going to meet my little aunt's closest relatives!

Looking at the neon sign outside the restaurant ordered by her grandma, Lin Luoluo felt as if she was dreaming back to the last century.Once inside, this feeling is obvious.

This is probably a restaurant with a retro style, no wonder the little aunt chose such an outfit for herself, with pearl ornaments.

"Hi, how many people?" The waiter came up and asked.

"This way!"

Lin Luoluo heard the sound and looked over, and saw a very elegant woman waving at herself and Xi Lingyu at the table by the French window.The woman looked familiar, but Lin Luoluo was sure that she had never seen her before.

"We are together."

"Okay, this way please."

Lin Luoluo followed Xi Lingyu and walked over.

"Grandma, long time no see."

"Grandma!" Lin Luoluo also greeted.

Grandma looked to be about the same age as Fang Ying. Although her hair was dyed black, she looked younger than Fang Ying.And after seeing each other, Lin Luoluo became less nervous.

The graceful grandma had an inexplicable affinity, which made Lin Luoluo feel very kind from the bottom of her heart.

Grandma got up and hugged Xi Lingyu first: "Long time no see."

He reached out and hugged Lin Luoluo again: "What a cute little girl. Come on, sit down quickly, and we can talk after we sit down."

After the three of them were seated, grandma called the waiter to serve tea and asked, "What do you like to drink? Juice? Milk tea?"

"She wants a cup of milk tea." Xi Lingyu said.

When the waiter left, grandma took out a small box from her bag and pushed it in front of the two of them: "Lingyu told me that she was married before, and I happened to be abroad at that time, so I bought this pair of bracelets. It’s a valuable item, just treat it as a meeting gift.”

The bracelet is silver, and the carvings are very exotic.Lin Luoluo once learned the history of gardens in this country in class. The teacher at that time mentioned by the way that there is a carved pattern in this country that is specially used to bless gay people. She was very impressed. It was carved on this pair of bracelets.

But according to the teacher, it is difficult to buy such carved ornaments in the market, and they are basically customized.Presumably, after my grandma found out about this, she went to find someone to order this pair of bracelets.

"Thank you, grandma." Lin Luoluo took it, and happily put it on her wrist, overlapping with the red string.

Seeing that Lin Luoluo had put it on, but her own granddaughter hadn't, her grandmother curled her lips: "Lingyu, don't you like it?"

"No." Xi Lingyu raised her wrist and said, "It's inconvenient to wear a watch."

"Same as your grandfather, old-fashioned." Grandma complained, "What age is it, and you still wear a watch. Put the bracelet on your right hand."

Unable to hold back her grandmother, Xi Lingyu had no choice but to put the bracelet on her right wrist.

"How long will you be back this time?"

The grandfather and grandson asked together, and then looked at each other and smiled.

Xi Lingyu said first: "Just a week. Next week, I have to go back to Kyoto, and Luo Luo has to go back to school."

"I'm coming back this time, so I won't leave." Grandma said, "You see, I'm also at this age. It's okay to travel occasionally, but I've been living here. Many places have their own rules. If you live in a month or two, you can remember it." Can't live."

"Then do you want to settle down in Jianglin?"

"Of course." Grandma smiled. "This is the place where I grew up. I have lived in so many places over the years, and finally found that my hometown is better. What about you? What are your plans in the future? Stay in Kyoto?"

"No, we plan to come back to Jianglin. We will come back after Luo Luo graduates."

Grandma nodded and said, "It's good to be back. There are too many annoying people in Kyoto. By the way, when you go back this time, how is it doing there? Your mother... is still the same?"

"kindness."

"Hey, when we got divorced, I said she should follow me." Grandma sighed, "At your grandfather's place, let's see what it looks like!"

"Don't mention her." When the tea came, Xi Lingyu turned the upside-down cup over and poured two cups, "I won't be mad at you again."

When Fang Ying was mentioned, grandma's expression was obviously a little sad.

Lin Luoluo didn't know what happened in those years. Even if she knew, she couldn't comment. After all, no matter what happened, seeing her daughter's current appearance, the most sad thing must be Fang Ying's mother's grandmother.

"Forget it. You're right, don't mention these angry things." Grandma waved her hand, indicating that the waiter could serve the food, "You bring your partner back, but grandma is the happiest thing in the past few years. Luoluo What major did you study in university?"

Lin Luoluo found that no matter the north or south, the elders seem to ask about their studies and career first when chatting.But still obediently answered.

When the grandma heard this, she smiled and asked, "Oh, is it possible to design a garden for the family?"

"Well, it's okay to learn well."

"Grandma just bought a house with a small front yard, can I hand it over to you then?" After finishing speaking, grandma added, "Of course, grandma will pay for the design fee."

Hearing this, Lin Luoluo quickly waved her hands: "It's not about the money, it's because I'm not good at learning, I'm afraid it's because of poor design."

"You can design your yard in any way." Grandma smiled brightly, "It's better than wasting it completely in the hands of a layman like me."

Xi Lingyu on the side also smiled and said: "Don't look at grandma's clothes are so good, the aesthetics of the courtyard really depends on others. If you want to try, just go ahead and do it; if you don't want to do it, don't force it."

Grandma hurriedly said, "If you don't want to, forget it."

"No, I'm quite happy, but I'm afraid I won't do well and waste the yard." Seeing that she had misunderstood, Lin Luoluo quickly explained.

"It's good to just practice your hands." Xi Lingyu said, "It's my own home anyway, so there's no need to waste it."

"Then... let me try?"

"Lingyu is so optimistic about you, you can do it." Grandma thought for a while and said, "Do you have any plans for tomorrow? If it's okay, let's go and see the house together? The interior decoration hasn't been decided yet."

Xi Lingyu asked casually, "Did you buy a new house?"

"Second-hand. The former owner immigrated, but the decoration was done 20 years ago. I want to dismantle and reinstall it."

"It's okay, my house is still comfortable to live in the decoration style I like." Filling the cups of tea for the two of them, Xi Lingyu said, "What time do you want to go tomorrow?"

"Look at your time, just call me when you go out."

"That's fine."

Chatting while eating, Lin Luoluo heard a lot about her little aunt from her grandmother.

For example, when I first went abroad, my eight-year-old aunt was stuck alone despite the language barrier, and refused to ask my grandmother’s local friends for help. In the end, my grandmother stayed with her for two months; Both the family and Fang's family gave her money, but she refused to use it for anything, and had to earn tuition and living expenses by herself...

After listening, Lin Luoluo felt a little distressed.The little aunt in grandma's mouth is not only strong, but sometimes can be regarded as stubborn and angry.Perhaps, at that time, she was indeed angry with the Xi family, and she was also angry with Fang Ying.

"If you ask me, you're an idiot. Your father's money and your father's company belong to you." As grandma spoke, she inevitably brought up the Xi family and Fang Ying, "You are like your mother in this respect. Don’t want anything, are you born to do charity? You don’t do what you do in charity, and charity can help those in need anyway, you and your mother are cheap, that family is rotten!”

"I know I was wrong before, grandma." Xi Lingyu was a little embarrassed by the chanting, and explained, "This time he gave me the company shares, and I took them."

"Just accept it!" Grandma turned to Lin Luoluo and said, "Luoluo, from now on, you should help grandma keep an eye on Lingyu, don't let her be like her idiot mother, neither this nor that, fake and noble! It should be hers, let her want it, the more the better!"

"Okay." Lin Luoluo was amused by her grandmother's tone, "Now little aunt..."

Seeing her slightly embarrassed expression, grandma smiled knowingly: "Don't be embarrassed, it's good to have a little fun between the two of you. If you're really embarrassed, grandma just pretend you didn't hear."

Lin Luoluo was even more embarrassed when she was told by her grandma, neither would she change her words, nor would she not change her words—it was all because of being too indulgent these days, she just yelled and yelled, obviously when she first met, she still called her name.

"En..." Lin Luoluo lowered her voice, "Now that she has figured it out, don't worry, grandma."

"Just figure it out. Sure enough, people who have married are different. I've told her so many times before, but I just can't figure it out. Now that I've found a wife, I finally know what to do."

"Grandma, stop embarrassing me. If you continue embarrassing me, I will be alone again."

After laughing twice, grandma said, "Our Luo Luo is not that kind of person, is he?"

"Yes. Grandma is right."

After dinner, Xi Lingyu asked, "How did you go back?"

"Someone is coming to pick you up."

"Oh?"

Pushing the door open, I saw a car parked at the door.Seeing the three people come out, a foreigner got off the driver's seat and said a lot.

Lin Luoluo: ...Listen, I don't understand.

"Introduce, my boyfriend, Wilfrid Steve, you can call him Will."

"You Menghao!" The man greeted in not-so-fluent Chinese, "The nest is Will."

Probably because this sentence has used up all the Chinese he knows, and then he spoke a long list of foreign languages, which made Lin Luoluo confused.

Grandma translated: "He said he was very happy to meet you. It was the first time we met. He forgot to prepare a gift. I hope you don't mind."

Xi Lingyu replied in a foreign language.

Lin Luoluo:?Am I the only one here who needs an interpreter?

After listening to the three of them chattering a few more words, the show finally ended.

"The country you studied in is not this, and you can speak this language." Lin Luoluo asked curiously.After all, on Valentine's Day, she heard that her aunt's graduation school was in another country, and the language of the two countries was not fluent.

"It's actually a language family." Xi Lingyu explained, "Because grandma likes that country and lived there for a few years, she learned a little bit, but she can only handle daily conversation."

"Then what are you talking about tonight?" Lin Luoluo felt that the feeling that only she could not understand was too uncomfortable.

"It's just a few polite words. It's a pleasure to meet. He wishes us a happy wedding, and I wish him and grandma a happy life in Jianglin... and so on. However, considering grandma's temper, maybe we'll wait until we move back next year. Jiang Lin, this is not the boyfriend."

"Grandma is still so... like the new and dislike the old?" Lin Luoluo picked out this one from her poor vocabulary.

Xi Lingyu smiled: "Don't be so cautious, even if you say this in front of grandma, she will just laugh and say, 'Yes, I just like the new and dislike the old'. Grandma once said that she doesn't believe in eternal love in the world, There is no relationship worthy of her staying for too long, if there is, then she has to wait until she meets before believing in it."

It has to be said that this character of grandma, compared with Fang Ying's, can really be regarded as the north and south poles.But maybe it was because of grandma's extreme ideas, coupled with the environment of Fang's family, that Fang Ying went to another extreme.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I'm going to grandma's house tomorrow, what gift should I give?"

Xi Lingyu parked the car: "Grandma likes perfume, please give me perfume."

"Okay." Lin Luoluo originally thought that she would have to get up early tomorrow to buy the perfume at a counter in the mall, but as soon as she got home, Xi Lingyu took her to a room that had been closed until now.

"Grandma thinks the perfume sold outside is too popular," Xi Lingyu sat in front of the large table and found a bunch of bottles and jars. "She likes to adjust herself."

Yes, the perfume my aunt used before seems to be self-adjusting.Lin Luoluo sat on another chair she had pulled out for herself, looking curiously at the things that were brought out.

"Is this essential oil?"

"En." Xi Lingyu simply introduced to her while choosing, "It is suitable for warming in winter, sweet orange essential oil is a must. And sweet orange essential oil also has a certain calming effect..."

Although Lin Luoluo nodded while listening, she felt that she couldn't remember so many things at all.

"Will there still be courses in perfumery in fashion design?"

"No, it's just a hobby." After Xi Lingyu selected the essential oils, she began to mix the fragrance. "If you're interested, it's quite simple. Want to learn?"

"It looks like you can't learn it." Looking at her operation, Lin Luoluo shook her head, "But, I have you!"

The corners of Xi Lingyu's mouth turned up: "Tomorrow, I will make you a unique perfume."

Considering that grandma was getting older and lacked sleep, the two left home at eight o'clock the next day, took the perfume they had mixed last night, and went to the apartment where grandma lived to pick up someone.

The location of the newly bought house by my grandmother is a bit remote, but the surrounding environment is very good.It's a small two-story villa with a yard outside, and there are people living in the neighboring houses, so you won't be too lonely after you move in.

"Luo Luo, is this yard easy to design?" the old lady asked impatiently after walking around the weed-covered yard.

The courtyard is square and square, which is actually the best design pattern. There will be no corners and corners with strange shapes, which need to be considered and solved separately.

Lin Luoluo looked at the yards of the two neighbors on the left and right through the guardrail, and asked, "Grandma, do you have any requirements for the yard?"

"No, just look at it. Oh yes, leave me a piece of land, I want to grow vegetables."

"Okay." Unexpectedly, the old lady's request was so simple and unpretentious, Lin Luoluo took out the measuring ruler she just bought, "Little aunt, please help me."

After measuring the various data of the courtyard, Lin Luoluo asked again: "Grandma, will you still repaint the outside of your house to change the style?"

"The paint should be able to be painted, but the style has not changed. The neighbors around are all in the same style, but I changed it myself, which is neither fish nor fowl."

After hearing this sentence, Lin Luoluo took out her mobile phone to take a few pictures of the exterior of the villa.The villas here have the classical style of Jiangnan water town, and Lin Luoluo roughly formed the image of a small and exquisite courtyard in Lin Luoluo's mind.

"Grandma, do you want a small pond in your yard?"

"It's all right, but digging is allowed here. I see someone dug a swimming pool directly at home."

Lin Luoluo nodded: "When will you start construction?"

"No rush, you can design slowly." The old lady waved her hand, "It will take a year or so to decorate the house."

Although the old lady said so, Lin Luoluo already had an idea in her heart and planned to publish the picture as soon as possible.After all, she is only in charge of drawing, and it will be time to find someone for construction.

It was already noon when we left the new house. The old lady said that the two of them should go to her apartment for lunch, but they couldn't hold her back, so the two had no choice but to follow.

Will cooked the lunch. Lin Luoluo thought it would be a simple western food, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a Chinese meal that was so sumptuous as to order at a restaurant.

"Let's try it out." Will said in non-standard Chinese with a smile while laying out the dishes.

The lunch made by Will not only looks good, but also tastes like the essence of Chinese food, which surprised Lin Luoluo.

After the meal, the two offered to help clean up the kitchen, but the grandmother greeted them: "Will can do it himself, he enjoys doing these chores."

When Will heard the sound, he seemed to ask something, and grandma also changed the language to tell him.

Then I heard Will say seriously: "Yes, I'm very imaginary to do housework."

"Come here, both of you, to chat with grandma."

Sitting next to her grandma and watching her life, Lin Luoluo couldn't help but think of Fang Ying's life at Xi's house again, it can be described as a world of difference.

You can only be happy if you put yourself first.Looking at the smile on grandma's face and Will who was happily washing dishes in the kitchen, Lin Luoluo thought: Sure enough, only if you love yourself can you find someone who really loves you.

The author has something to say: Lin Luoluo: No matter who you fall in love with, you must first love yourself before you can get true love
