The little lolita who has never been to Yanjing is lying on the car window admiring this political and cultural center city. Her big, round and beautiful eyes are busy looking at the beautiful retrograde houses, like a country girl who has entered the Grand View Garden. Occasionally,
The building looks old-fashioned and tacky, but it reflects from the side that the little loli is arrogant and well-informed. She must have seen many modern central cities in the world.
"Alas. It's another disgusting city." The little Loli stuffed a strawberry-flavored lollipop into her mouth, rolled her eyes, and turned back to Chu He who closed his eyes to rest. "Uncle, we want to
Where to go?”
"My home." Chu He said lazily.
"Isn't your home in Baicheng?" Little Loli licked the sweet lollipop.
"There is another one in Yanjing." Chu He slowly opened his eyes. There was a hint of warmth in his eyes.
"Are we going to meet your dad?" the little Loli asked slightly excitedly.
"Yeah." Chu He smiled and nodded.
The two people in the back car were chatting. Xia He in the passenger seat tensed slightly, obviously lacking confidence.
This was her first time meeting her parents, so she was inevitably uneasy. When she was still in Baicheng, she had chosen several kinds of gifts, and she was still not sure which style would suit her uncle. Of course she would not listen to Chu He's nonsense and give them to her uncle.
Cigarettes come with wine. Comparatively speaking, she is more willing to believe that Chu He's father is a middle-aged man with great wisdom and rich heritage, rather than a prodigal man who is addicted to drinking and gambling.
"Is your dad as handsome as you?" the little Loli asked curiously.
Handsome guys, etc., even if they are too old for little lolita's taste, it's still nice to look at.
"I inherited my mother's genes." Chu He said slightly implicitly.
Speaking of which, the old guy who seems to be changing is not handsome at all. His appearance is too good for the public.
"Is that so?" Little Loli muttered, somewhat disappointed. "I originally wanted to take a photo with my uncle."
"He doesn't take pictures." Chu He touched her little head and said seriously. "Whether a man is handsome or not does not solely depend on his appearance."
"That's because you're handsome." Little Loli curled her lips and said, "It's true that a full man doesn't know how hungry a man is when he's hungry."
Chu He laughed dumbly and said no more.
Is your father handsome?
Not handsome.
But this old guy exudes a temperament that is difficult to describe in words or words. Especially on the day of worshiping his mother, Chuhe saw a father who was completely different from the past. He was domineering and aloof. It was as if everything in the world was in harmony.
His discernment.
When he was very young, Chu He didn't believe that his father would be such a drunkard and a gambler. So when he saw Chu Lin's unusual side, Chu He was a little surprised, but not surprised.
Isn't this kind of father the father figure in his heart?
Yanjing's home in the strict sense is far away from the city center. Although Yanjing has convenient transportation, it actually took an hour and a half to take a taxi from the airport. This little lolita who doesn't like taking cars complained endlessly.
, rubbing his buttocks and saying, "It hurts my buttocks."
Everyone dragged their luggage out of the car and strode into the so-called community with only one building.
Just after entering the iron fence, an old woman in her seventies emerged from an old house similar to a security room. As soon as she saw Chu He, she couldn't help but said in surprise: "Are you a little box?"
Chu He laughed: "Yes, Grandma Zhou."
He casually took a gift from Little Loli and handed it to Grandma Zhou: "You haven't retired yet?"
Grandma Zhou and his wife used to look after the yard. After her husband left, Grandma Zhou couldn't bear to leave this place where she had lived for decades, so she simply took on the job of security guard. Fortunately, this building is an old building with a long history and the location
Not good, the residents are all poor people. Even thieves rarely care about her. In addition, Grandma Zhou was famous for being hot-tempered when she was young. Those petty thieves nearby are not willing to come to this community to commit crimes. They can't steal a few dollars.
Not to mention the money, it is also easy to be discovered by Grandma Zhou, whose eyes are sharper as she gets older. The gain outweighs the loss.
"You kid hasn't been home for so many years, so you have to chase Grandma Zhou away when you come back? Grandma Zhou is so strong. How could she retire? Besides, if I retire, where will you find a dedicated security guard like me?" Grandma Zhou has a fiery temper.
, is also quite a chatterbox. When I used to come here for vacation during the winter and summer vacations, I could often hear Mr. Zhou’s screams and curses coming from the house at the iron gate. I have long been used to it.
Chu He smiled slightly and said, "How dare you. With Grandma Zhou here, we can live comfortably."
"That's right." Grandma Zhou was not polite to Chu He. She held the gift in her hand and glanced at the two young and beautiful girls following Chu He with her cloudy eyes. Her wrinkled face was full of smiles.
"I'm talking about the little box. Who is your girlfriend? It can't be both, right?"
"What a beautiful idea!" Little Loli jumped out and winked at Grandma Zhou. "She is not yet an adult. Grandma is not allowed to talk nonsense."
"Hahaha." Grandma Zhou pinched Qiu Huo'er's ceramic face in a familiar manner and said with a strange voice. "Our little box is so handsome, little girl, you are not tempted at all?"
Little Lolita raised her eyebrows, bared her teeth and said, "Grandma, if you keep talking nonsense, I won't give you any gifts!"
"Haha, grandma won't tell me, I won't tell you." Grandma Zhou smiled and said to Xia He, who was standing reservedly next to Chu He. "Girl, Little Box is a good child, so you should cherish it."
"Grandma, I know." Xia He said slightly shyly, her face flushed.
After saying goodbye to Grandma Zhou, Chu He led the two girls to the inner floor. The street lights in the community were sometimes good and bad. Fortunately, the space was not big, and one light was enough for lighting. Within ten meters, there was a light on the left.
A dilapidated table tennis table. Due to disrepair, there are a few red bricks stacked in the middle of the table. It is still usable. In front of it are several pieces of fitness equipment that are not too old. He must have a hot temper, but he is very helpful.
Grandma Zhou is very troublesome. Because she is an old man who has lived in the community for decades, many middle-aged people have grown up under the watch of Grandma Zhou. Grandma Zhou, who has no children, loves her juniors very much. In the past, Chu Lin went out to drink and gamble, and occasionally would
She asked Chu He, who was alone at home, to come to her simple but clean and decent home to eat and chat. After glancing at the ground floor of the community where he had been with him for countless childhoods, a trace of nostalgia appeared on Chu He's face.
This building is not very high, with only seven floors, but it has three units, with three households in each unit. In total, it can accommodate sixty or seventy households. The Chuhe family lives on the seventh floor, which is on the innermost floor.
Outside the unit wall are small high-rise buildings full of modern flavor. They are clearly different from this dilapidated but humane community. They also seem to be buildings from two eras, which makes people feel sad.
After going upstairs, Chu He groaned and turned on the voice-activated light. He turned around and said to the two women who were staggering upstairs: "Be careful. The stairs are very slippery. I often fell down when I was a child."
Huo'er has excellent balance, so she doesn't have to worry about this problem. Xia He is even more of a tepid girl. She won't jump up the stairs like a little lolita. There is no need to worry. She climbed up to the seventh floor with difficulty.
It was already twelve o'clock at night. The three of them came to the door quite tiredly, and Chu He knocked on the door.
Boom, boom, boom.
The door opened quickly, and the speed alone made Chu He startled. Then he saw the woman standing inside the door again, but Chu He was stunned.
Standing inside the door was an elegant woman with an apron tied around her waist. She was dignified and gentle, and her fair skin was filled with a subtle halo. It should be because the voice-activated light outside the building hit her face. Her facial features were so vivid
She is very beautiful. But people who look at her rarely worry about whether she is beautiful or not, and whether she has a good temperament and image. Instead, it depends on her eyes.
Her eyes seemed to be able to speak. There was a touch of aura in her gentleness, which made her very comfortable.
"Aunt Fang?" Chu He was quite surprised.
The woman took off her apron, took the gift from Chu He, and said with a gentle smile: "Your dad is out. I know you will be home tonight. I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to eat the food on the plane, so I prepared a midnight snack for you."
"
Seeing Chu He standing at the door in a daze, the woman said angrily: "What are you doing standing at the door? Why don't you lead people into the house?"
Chu He suddenly understood. He hurriedly led the two girls into the house and briefly introduced them to Aunt Fang. When he was about to introduce Aunt Fang to the two girls, the latter put the gift on the sofa and said with a smile: "I am Chu He
My father's admirer. But he has always refused to accept me."
Huo'er stuck out his tongue to express shock. Xia He was also quite surprised. But because of his face, he didn't ask any more questions.
As Aunt Fang said, Huo'er, a real foodie, really couldn't get used to the dinner on the plane, and she was very hungry after traveling all the way. As soon as she got to the dining table, she saw that the table was full of delicious dishes, and she couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Aunt Fang
Did you do all this?"
Aunt Fang came out of the kitchen with soup and said with a smile: "Try Aunt Fang's craftsmanship."
"Okay!"
Huo'er buried his head in picking vegetables and grilling rice, eating enthusiastically.
Xia He, on the other hand, ate the dishes quite cautiously, occasionally glaring at Huo'er, who completely forgot in front of the delicious food that he was a guest at Chuhe's house, not at his own home.
Chu He knew very well that Aunt Fang was an excellent cook. He remembered that Aunt Fang once lived at home for a summer and forced the father and son to gain more than ten kilograms of weight. This shows how much the father and son loved the dishes cooked by Aunt Fang.
After having eaten and drank enough, Aunt Fang, who had been running around all day, laid out the bed sheets for everyone, and said to the two girls in a kind and friendly manner: "There are only three rooms in the house. I have to make it difficult for you to live in one room."
"You are so polite." Xia He felt flattered. He stood up and helped Aunt Fang clean up the dishes. The latter did not refuse and let the girl deal with the aftermath.
Huo'er has always been the hands-off shopkeeper, and has an inexplicable fear of Aunt Fang. So he picked out some beautiful and cute pajamas and got into the bathroom to take a bath, leaving behind the man and woman who were close to each other in the living room.
Chu He burped and complimented Aunt Fang, who had been sitting next to him drinking tea from the beginning: "Aunt Fang, your craftsmanship is still so good. After the New Year, I think I will gain another dozen pounds."
When Aunt Fang heard this, she rolled her eyes at Chu He and said, "Your dad didn't promise to keep me here for the New Year."
Chu He was startled, then shook his head and said: "Then I will go to the big mansion with you to celebrate the New Year. Let the old guy guard the empty room alone."
Aunt Fang pursed her lips and smiled: "It's not in vain that Aunt Fang has loved you for so many years. You are so good."
