After hanging up the phone, Gao Lin hesitated for a moment and dialed a number.
The phone just beeped twice, and then a middle-aged woman's voice came from inside.
"Who are you looking for?"
Listening to this familiar voice, a loving face flashed in Gao Lin's mind.
"Aunt Meng, it's me!" Gao Lin said in a low voice with his mouth squirming.
"Who?" The other party asked in confusion, seemingly unable to recognize his voice.
Just as he said these words, another exclamation came from the phone: "Ah, Xiaolin?"
"I thought Aunt Meng didn't remember me!" Gao Lin couldn't help but smile when he heard the other party calling out his nickname.
"Oh, Aunt Meng didn't expect it to be you Xiaolin just now!" As she said that, the other party said in a complaining tone, "Hey, you haven't called me back in almost five years. Have you forgotten Aunt Meng?"
"How could it be? Aunt Meng will always be my gold medal for getting free from fighting!" Gao Lin said with a smile. When he was a child, every time he got into a fight or made a mistake and was taught a lesson, this woman named Aunt Meng would always come forward to defend him and intercede for him. For this reason,
Liu Siyi and others joked that Aunt Meng was his free agent.
Gold medal. Although Aunt Meng is just a maid in Lao Gao's family, she has served the old man for more than thirty years. Her status in Lao Gao's family is very special. No one in Lao Gao's family regards her as a subordinate.
She dared to scold even Gao Lin's father.
"You, I haven't seen you for so many years, but your mouth is still so sweet!" the other party said happily.
Gao Lin smiled and then asked: "Aunt Meng, where is grandpa?"
"They are outside! Recently, the old man is very obsessed with the flowers and plants in the yard. They are like some kind of treasure. We can't even touch them!" the other party replied.
"Can you let him come back and answer the phone?" Gao Lin asked.
"Okay, I'll call him right away!" After saying that, the sound of hurried footsteps sounded from the phone.
And after the footsteps disappeared, a shout rang out: "Old man, Xiaolin called back!"
"Then why did that brat call you?" Before anyone arrived, an old voice sounded.
"You, if I don't call you back, I'll be nagging you all day long, saying I don't have any sense of family affection. Now I call you back and you're complaining again!" said a middle-aged woman's voice.
"What am I nagging about? That brat hasn't come back for five years. If I hadn't called him last time, I'm afraid he would have forgotten about me, a bad old man!"
From the old voice, Gao Lin knew that he was gradually approaching.
"Shovel me!" the middle-aged woman's voice said.
"Don't put it back yet, I'll have to soil some pots of flowers later!" said the old voice.
After only waiting for a few seconds, the clear old voice sounded on the phone: "Hello, Xiaolin?"
"Grandpa, it's me!" Listening to this voice, Gao Lin felt warm in his heart.
"What's the matter with calling back?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to give you a call!"
"What nonsense! You brat, you will call me when nothing happens?"
Hearing this, Gao Lin couldn't help but smile awkwardly. Growing up, the person who knew him best was the old man. To put it bluntly, as long as he farted, the old man would know what he was going to do.
"Grandpa, do you know Professor Li Zhengxing from the Medical University?" Gao Lin raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose and asked in a low voice.
"We know each other, what's wrong?"
"It's like this. I have a friend who has congenital hereditary breast cancer. Now the condition is getting worse and he may not be able to survive at any time. I heard that Professor Li Zhengxing is very good at treating this disease, and I want to invite him to come and have a look!"
"Friends? What friends?"
Gao Lin glanced at the book in his hand and said without thinking: "A very important friend!"
"Lao Li, the bandit leader, is very stubborn. It's not easy to recruit him!" the other party said.
"Is there anyone in the world that my grandfather can't please?" Gao Lin said almost coquettishly.
"You brat, don't put a high hat on me, I won't accept your trick!" Although he said this, the other party's tone was full of joy.
"Grandpa, have you received the souvenirs that Dou Wa brought back last time?" Gao Lin said while the iron was hot. Gao Lin knew the old man very well. He would typically take the soft and not the hard. If you express toughness to him
He will never listen to opinions or irresistible orders
Yours, but if you show weakness or show mercy, he will listen to your opinion. It is precisely because of this that whenever Gao Lin made a mistake when he was a child, Mu Luorou would run to the old man to act coquettishly and beg for mercy. In addition, Aunt Meng's
He spoke out to protect each other, so Gao Lin was exempted from punishment every time.
"Got it!" As soon as he mentioned the souvenirs, the other party's mood improved a lot, "What's that sweet wine called? It tastes very good!"
"Then I'll bring some back to you in a few days!" Gao Lin said.
"You brat, do you want to bribe me with this?"
"My own grandfather, do I still use bribes?" Gao Lin smiled, "Besides, which law does not allow me to bribe my grandfather?"
"Okay, okay, don't confuse me here, I'll help you ask that old villain!" The other party seemed to enjoy Gao Lin's words, and said happily.
"Okay!" After successfully convincing the other party, Gao Lin couldn't help but smile, "Grandpa, when he comes, give me a call!"
"Say it again, if nothing happens, just hang up!"
"Okay, I'll go back in a few days!" Gao Lin nodded.
"Well, if I don't come back for a long time, I won't even know the way!"
As soon as he said this, the other party asked again: "By the way, I heard that the girl went to your place?"
The girl the other party refers to refers to Mu Luorou. In Lao Gao's family, the old man is accustomed to calling Mu Luorou "girl". Even though Mu Luorou has grown up and is a mother, the old man still calls her the same name.
"Yes, Xiaoxiao is here too!" Gao Lin nodded.
"That pair of girls haven't been back for a long time!" There was a hint of doting in the old voice. Although Gao Lin was an only son, in the old Gao family, the old man's doting on Mu Luorou and his daughter completely surpassed him. Especially...
The old man regarded Xiaoxiao as a treasure, holding it in his hand for fear of falling, and holding it in his mouth for fear of melting.
"My cousin said she would take Xiaoxiao back in a few days!" Gao Lin said with a smile.
"That's good! That's good! We're all back, that's home!" the other party said repeatedly.
Hearing this, Gao Lin couldn't help but fall into silence.
"Okay, let's not talk about it for now. I'll contact that bandit leader Lao Li!" As if knowing that Gao Lin was silent, the other party said at the right time.
"Okay, goodbye grandpa!" Gao Lin nodded.
After hanging up the phone, I turned around and saw Zhang Tianfu and Sun Wei talking around Dr. Ning.
Just as I walked over, I saw the phone ringing.
Gao Lin picked up his phone and looked at it, and found that it was Lu Hai calling.
"Hello, Mr. Lu, it's me!" Gao Lin answered the phone and said.
"Gao Lin, what happened?" Lu Hai asked with concern.
"A friend of mine has an accident and is in the hospital. I'm temporarily taking a few days off!" Gao Lin said.
"How many days? The finals start tomorrow, why do you still ask for a few days off?" Lu Hai said anxiously.
Glancing at Zhang Ruoran in the ward, Gao Lin whispered: "I'm sorry, Teacher Lu, I may not be able to participate in the finals!"
