"Your grandfather is a revolutionary predecessor and the backbone of the country. It is the wish of each of us that he can live a long life. He is just a ball of dragon energy, nothing."
Ye Huang's answer was not bad, and Dugu Xiaoxuan also knew that it must come from the heart, but this was not the answer she wanted.
From Ye Huang's words, Dugu Xiaoxuan could not hear any subjective emotions. They were official and real but impersonal.
It was as if Emperor Ye deliberately alienated his relationship with the Dugu family.
Dugu Xiaoxuan smiled sadly, and shouted to the grandfather in the middle hall from a distance without thinking too much about this issue.
"Grandpa, Emperor Ye is here."
Hearing his granddaughter's shout, Dugu Aotian slowly turned around and stood up, taking off his reading glasses.
"Haha, don't stand there when you come. Come here, the food is ready."
After the old man said this, Ye Huang was too embarrassed to stand where he was anymore and followed Dugu Xiaoxuan to the central hall.
The table is not big, but very simple. It seems to be a relic from the Qing Dynasty. It is a bit old but very clean.
"This girl is not at home usually, and this table is usually filled with miscellaneous items. I finally dragged it out and used it once. Fortunately, it is still solid."
"Sit down. Apart from a few people here during the Spring Festival, there aren't many people here to have a glass of wine with me..."
While waving his hand for Ye Huang to sit down, the old man also sat down, his voice a little sad and lonely.
Hearing the old man's words, Ye Huang was deeply affected. According to the old man's age, an ordinary family would have at least five generations living under the same roof.
But because of the country, the old man is now left to guard his only granddaughter, which is a bit cruel and cruel.
"Grandpa Dugu, if you like it, I will come over and have a few drinks with you when you have time. If you don't like the lack of people, I will bring a few brothers over. What do you think?"
Ye Huang said this sentence almost subconsciously. After saying it, he felt a little incredible, but he did not look regretful.
The old man in front of me really should spend more time with him.
Not only Mr. Dugu, but also grandfather, Mr. Tang and his own grandfather.
They have paid too much for this country. When they are old, they should not just send them to a nursing home. They need the company of their children and relatives more.
"That's good, I'm afraid you don't want to..."
Dugu Aotian was stunned when he heard what Ye Huang said. He didn't expect this kid to say such words, and a smile appeared on his face.
"There's nothing you don't want to do. It just so happens that we can take this opportunity to listen to you talk about some of the past things. As long as you are not afraid of us making too much noise."
"Are you making a fuss? Let's make a fuss. My yard is usually very cold and cold. Only Xiaoxuan and a few people talk to me. If you really want to come over, my old man is good at drinking and smoking."
On weekdays, cigarettes and alcohol are given to Dugu Laotian during the New Year and holidays. The old man usually doesn't eat too much, and there is still a lot of leftovers.
"Grandpa Dugu, I'm not here for these things of yours."
"I know, although I haven't seen you kid often, I heard from Lao Zhao that you have a good character, and I still understand this."
"Okay, let's not talk about it. If you really want to do this, just come over when you have time. I'll let Xiaoxuan cook. This girl can cook well, but it's a pity that I don't even have the chance to taste her cooking since she is out and about all the time.
many."
Glancing at his granddaughter, the old man's eyes revealed a bit of doting and reproach.
"Grandpa, I will often go home and prepare delicious food for you. I will make you whatever you want to eat." Her eyes were a little red. Dugu Xiaoxuan looked at the old man's somewhat lonely eyes, knowing that she had been away from home all year round in the past few years.
, I feel a little guilty for rarely spending time with my grandfather.
"Why are you crying again? Grandpa is just talking. You are getting older. It is normal that you can't always be by my side. Grandpa doesn't expect to be able to cook for you every day."
"Okay, let's not talk about these unhappy things. Xiaoye is here today. Let's have a few drinks."
As he said that, the old man took a bottle of Moutai from the table that was a little worn.
"This is the authentic Moutai that is 50 years old. It was stocked 20 years ago. You are in for a treat today."
"Grandpa, I'll drive it."
Next to her, Dugu Xiaoxuan took the wine bottle from the old man's hand, opened the bottle cap, filled the bottles for the old man and Ye Huang, and filled half a glass for herself.
"Come on, Xiaoye, let's have a drink. Thank you for saving Xiaoxuan's life two days ago."
"Grandpa Dugu, that's nothing." Ye Huang raised his wine glass and said humbly.
"It doesn't matter. Xiaoxuan is my lifeblood. It may be a piece of cake for you, but for me it means saving my old man's life. Just do it!"
As he spoke, the old man raised his wine glass and clinked it with Emperor Ye before drinking it down in one gulp.
Ye Huang naturally couldn't leave it behind, so he finished the drink simply.
What Ye Huang didn't expect was that the girl Dugu Xiaoxuan also drank half of the cup of Maotai. Ye Huang looked at it in a daze.
"You don't have to look at me like that, okay? I'm a very good drinker. It's absolutely fine to be half a pound smaller!" After drinking, Dugu Xiaoxuan saw Ye Huang staring at her, and she straightened her chest and looked unwilling to admit defeat.
Said posture.
However, Ye Huang obviously didn't believe Dugu Xiaoxuan's statement, and his eyes were still full of suspicion when he looked at her.
"You don't believe it? If you don't believe it, ask grandpa. Grandpa, can I drink half a catty?"
"Haha, this girl is right. When she was a child, this girl drank the medicinal wine I brewed as sweet wine. After going back and forth for a while, she developed a bit of a drinking capacity. This half a kilogram of wine is still acceptable."
Next to him, Dugu Aotian smiled and defended his granddaughter.
After such an explanation, although Ye Huang's expression relaxed a little, it didn't change much.
"You have a bad stomach, so it's better to drink less of these things."
"How do you know I have a bad stomach?"
Dugu Xiaoxuan was a little surprised when she heard Ye Huang's words. She had never told Ye Huang about her gastrointestinal problems. How did he know?
But after a brief moment of surprise, a hint of sweetness crept into her heart.
"There is information about you in the military region. I looked through it some time ago and found this item."
Ye Huang said casually, then picked up the wine bottle and poured a glass for Dugu Aotian and himself.
"Give it to me too."
Next to her, Dugu Xiaoxuan's face turned slightly red and she said unconvincedly. Looking at her like that, she was obviously dissatisfied with Ye Huang for ignoring her.
"Give it to her too. This girl is very strong. If you don't let her drink today, she won't stop tonight."
Next to him, Dugu Aotian gestured.
When the old man said this, Ye Huang took the other person's wine glass and poured half a cup.
Dugu Xiaoxuan frowned at the half-cup of wine, then picked it up, filled up the half-cup of wine, and drank it all under Ye Huang's gaze.
After finishing the drink, he raised his eyes and looked at Emperor Ye with a demonstrative look.
