Xiao Xiao's sudden opening startled Mr. Gu, who was deep in thought.
He subconsciously looked at Xiao Xiao who spoke out.
"......What?"
...
The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth turned up slightly.
"You don't have to worry about transportation costs."
“There is a subway that is directly accessible.”
This time since Gu Lao was there, he naturally took a taxi.
But if he goes by himself later...
Well, he might also take a taxi.
After all, the monsters on my body don't like too crowded environments.
Of course, there is no need to tell this to the old man with relaxed eyebrows.
…
"oh oh."
Gu Lao nodded frequently, "There is a direct subway."
"That's quite convenient."
The price is also much cheaper than taking a taxi.
However, even so...
"Xiaoxiao, save up the invoices for taking the subway every day, and then ask your child's parents to reimburse you."
Gu Lao's words made Xiao Xiao laugh and shake his head.
"Grandpa Gu, no need."
Is there any reason for a tutor to ask his host to reimburse the fare?
His tutor is too "golden".
"Grandpa Gu-"
Xiao Xiao, who was about to say something, noticed that the car had slowed down, so he turned around and asked, "Are you at the right place?"
Um?
Mr. Gu was stunned.
He turned to look out the window.
Then he nodded happily, "Yes, that's right, right here."
…
Xiao Xiao got out of the car first.
Then he opened his car door for Mr. Gu.
Mr. Gu bent down and got out of the car. He raised his face and narrowed his eyes. He said with a smile, "You are just polite, kid."
"It's not like I can't open the door myself."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
He opened his umbrella.
The old man opened his eyes wide and said, "Hey, Xiaoxiao, where did you get this umbrella?"
On the way here, he didn't see the child holding an umbrella.
Very familiar question...
Xiao Xiao slightly raised the little white fox in his arms, "It was Ah Jiu who helped me hold the umbrella before."
"……oh oh."
Mr. Gu was stunned for a moment, then stunned again.
Then he made an uncertain sound.
Ah Jiu knew it.
Such a beautiful fox.
When we first saw him, he watched for a long time.
Of course, even when he saw this little white fox now, he still thought it was a beautiful fox.
Ah Jiu is holding an umbrella...
The old man's eyes fell on the little white fox lying in Xiaoxiao's arms, his eyes slightly closed. How could such a fox hold an umbrella?
Xiao Xiao put away the umbrella directly and demonstrated for the old man how the little white fox holds the umbrella.
"oh oh."
There was a look of surprise on the old man's face, "That's how you hold it."
"Hey, as I get older, my brain doesn't work as well."
The old man patted his head.
Xiao Xiao opened the umbrella again to block the too bright and bright sunshine.
"Grandpa Gu, let's go."
"Oh, um."
The old man took steps.
After walking a few steps, he looked up and looked at the black umbrella above his head as if he had reacted.
"Xiaoxiao..."
The old man paused, "You still hold an umbrella..."
In his impression... all he saw on the road were... girls holding umbrellas.
Do boys also hold umbrellas?
If it had been anyone else, he would have disliked it long ago.
What kind of umbrella do you hold?
But the one holding the umbrella is the junior I have always liked...
The old man's words changed in his mouth and became much more tactful.
…
"Ajiu doesn't like to bask in the sun."
Xiao Xiao's explanation made the old man look much more natural.
"Oh, it's Ah Jiu who doesn't like to bask in the sun."
The old man didn't say anything about Xiao Xiao's behavior of holding the little white fox as a tutor.
Not to mention that today is the first time for everyone to meet each other, and the nature of the acquaintance is larger.
Moreover, with the little white fox around, it will be easier for children to get close to their new tutor, right?
That child is inherently introverted. It would be great if he could let go because of the little white fox.
...
After climbing six floors, the old man was a little out of breath.
This is an old community, with the highest floor only being the sixth floor, so naturally there is no elevator.
But there is a very famous primary school next to this community.
The surrounding facilities are also very complete, so it is the preferred residential area for many parents.
...
Mr. Gu waved his hand to Xiao Xiao, who looked at him worriedly, "It's okay."
"Although I can't climb the sixth floor without being out of breath, but..."
The old man stroked his chest and could feel his somewhat disordered heartbeat, "It's not like he's just lying down."
"Don't look at my figure like this."
Gu Lao turned and touched his belly, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha, "My physical strength and endurance are pretty good."
...
"Ding dong~"
Mr. Gu rang the doorbell.
A crisp ringtone came from inside the house.
A few breaths later, Xiao Xiao heard the sound of hurried footsteps becoming increasingly clear.
...
"I made an appointment with them."
Mr. Gu rang the doorbell twice and then withdrew his hand. He turned to explain to Xiao Xiao, "They are waiting for us in the house."
"soon-"
Gu Lao's unfinished words were interrupted by the door opening.
"Uncle."
The man shouted with a smile.
Curious eyes fell on the young man behind the old man.
It seems... okay?
At least he looks like a college student with excellent academic performance.
When the eldest uncle said that he was here to help the children find a tutor, they were all a little surprised.
I also shook my head and refused.
After all, tutoring is important, but it is not so important that the elderly at home need to come forward.
Moreover, they have no idea about the quality of tutors that the elderly can find.
In other words, I didn't have high hopes.
But... the young man in front of him was better than he thought.
"Please come in."
The man smiled politely at Xiao Xiao.
...
Xiao Xiao followed Mr. Gu into the living room.
What comes into view is a warm picture.
The child is lying on the ground drawing something.
The woman watched the child painting with a smile on her face.
...
The woman who noticed the movement looked up.
Soon, she stood up.
"Uncle."
The woman smiled and called someone.
Then his eyes fell on Xiao Xiao.
This... is the tutor highly recommended by my uncle.
Doesn't it look like anything special?
I wonder if I can successfully become a tutor for my children?
...
"Linlin."
The man looked at the child who was half hiding behind his mother.
They just told their children this morning, not long ago, that grandpa would bring a new tutor to their home today.
He and the child's mother were worried that if they told the child the news last night, the child would not be able to sleep well because of random thoughts.
"Why didn't you call someone?"
The man looked at the child with some disapproval.
...
"Linlin."
The woman patted the child on the shoulder.
The lowered eyebrows reveal a bit of tenderness.
"You're not called Grandpa yet."
"...Grandpa."
The child shouted softly.
"Why."
Gu Lao replied happily.
"Linlin, grandpa will introduce you to me."
Mr. Gu didn't delay either.
He turned slightly to the side, allowing Xiao Xiao, who was half a step behind him, to appear more clearly in front of everyone.
