Chapter 3495 Winter Melon and Ham Soup

The boy let his grandma pull him.

The behavior of the two old men made him feel very guilty.

There is also regret and uneasiness.

He shouldn't have come back so late...

He worried his grandparents.



The young man washed his hands in silence in the kitchen.

Grandma turned on the stove.

"Xiaoguang, you and grandpa go and sit at the dining table first."

"Grandma, heat up some dishes."

The child came back late, and the food prepared before was cold.

"It'll be fine soon."



The young man moved his lips, wanting to say something.

He felt he should say something.

But he couldn't say anything.

It's not the words that come to your lips.

But he didn't know what to say at all.



The boy followed his grandfather to the restaurant.

He sat down in his usual seat,

The hands on the knees were clasped together unconsciously.



The old man was not surprised that his grandson was quiet.

Sun Tzu was originally a taciturn person.

Coupled with the impact of parents' premature divorce on this child...

If this child doesn't rebel even when he reaches adolescence, they think it's fine.

Besides...

Not only is this child not rebellious, he has always been very sensible.

There is no need for them to supervise or worry about learning.

I study and do my homework consciously every day.

The results are also good.

They were very happy about this.



But today is the first time this child has made them so worried since moving here.

It's already dinner time...

Normally, this child would have come back long ago.

Did you lose track of time while playing with your classmates?

After all, he is a boy, not an ignorant primary school student.

Although the two old men were a little confused at first, they were not too worried about their grandson.

Rather, they felt vaguely happy.



That child is too quiet and sensible.

None of them had seen anyone the child went out with.

Unless they ask, the child won't tell them what happened at school.

In fact, they were a little worried about their grandson's friendship situation.

They also told the child more than once that they didn't mind the child going out to play with friends during holidays.

Just tell them beforehand.

Maybe because they talked too much, the child is no longer as homebound as he was at the beginning.

But returning late...

It's really the first time it's ever happened.



"I'm coming."

Grandma's voice broke the silence in the restaurant.



The young man breathed a sigh of relief.

He hurriedly reached out and took the dish from grandma's hand.



"Be careful of burning."

Grandma and the child put the dishes on the table together.



The microwave oven beeps.

"I'll get it."

Grandpa stood up.



"And a bowl of soup."

Grandma smiled at the boy.

He wiped his hands on his apron.

"Grandma will bring it to you right now."

"Xiaoguang, you can go and serve the rice."

"The food is always hot."



Soon, the young man and the two old men were sitting at the dining table again.

There is steaming hot food on the dining table.

Especially the bowl of clear-colored winter melon and ham soup exudes an alluring aroma.



Grandma filled a large bowl of winter melon and ham soup and handed it to her grandson.

"Xiaoguang, drink some soup."

"This ham is so good..."



The young man opened his mouth.

Still no sound was made.

He silently took the soup bowl from grandma's hand.



The soup is delicious.

The slightly hot soup also satisfies his hungry stomach very well.

The boy's mood became much more relaxed.



For a moment, there was only a slight sound of clinking dishes, chopsticks and spoons on the dining table.

Everyone implemented the table manners of eating without speaking very well.



The boy finished his meal quickly.

He pursed his lips.

Finally he said, "Grandpa, grandma, I-"



"Wait a minute."

Grandma raised her eyes and looked at the boy.

"Let's have another bowl of soup."

"Today's soup is very good."

"If possible, we will solve it now."

"Don't keep it overnight."



oh.

The young man nodded.

Some raised their bodies and sat back down.



He scooped a full bowl of winter melon and ham soup with a spoon.

As soon as I took a sip, I heard grandma asking -

"Why did you come back so late today?"



"Gulu~"

He almost choked and swallowed a large mouthful of soup.

The eyebrows and eyes that suddenly raised showed a bit of panic.

ah?



"Be careful."

Grandma immediately frowned.

"Don't choke."



The young man touched his neck.

Took a few deep breaths.

I just felt a little more comfortable.



"We don't mean to blame you."

Grandpa gave the child a reassurance.

Neither he nor the old lady objected to the child going out to play more with his peers.

It's okay to go home late.

Besides, it's not too late.



"Are you playing with your classmates?"

Grandma told their guess.

This is the only reason they think of for their children to come home late.

otherwise……

Could it be...

"Teacher got detention?"

An idea flashed in Grandma's mind.

Yes.

This is also possible.

But their grandson has always been a good student and has never been detained by a teacher.

certainly.

Staying in jail isn't necessarily a bad thing now, right?

Maybe the teacher has some other tasks to give the child?



The boy put the soup bowl on the table.

His hand didn't leave.

The hand holding the soup bowl unconsciously tightened a bit.

"...I met a friend I haven't seen for a long time..."

The truth told by the young man to the old man.

He didn't think there was anything worth lying about.

Moreover, he doesn't like lying.

Especially lying to grandparents.



"oh."

The two old men were stunned.

It's a friend I haven't seen for a long time.

That means the conversation will take longer.



"Then Xiaoguang is very happy?"

Grandma smiled.

Originally, as Grandpa said just now, apart from worrying about the child's safety, they were not very angry about the child's late return.

A boy.

A bit more "wild" in temperament.

It's normal to lose track of time when you accidentally play.

What's more, this child didn't forget the time to go home just because he was playing around.

Instead, I met a friend I hadn’t seen for a long time.

This is an "emergency situation".

Also a surprise.

There is no way to predict it in advance.

Then wouldn’t they have even less reason to be angry with their children?



The young man was slightly startled.

Then he nodded.

"Um."

"Happy."

The young man twitched his lips.

Showed a smile.



"You don't look happy?"

The grandfather looked at the child with an unnatural smile on his face.

"What's wrong?"

"Didn't you meet a friend you haven't seen for a long time?"

It's a friend I haven't seen for a long time...

It's really rare to be able to meet again.

Shouldn't you be very happy?



"ah?"

The young man touched his face subconsciously.

"I'm very happy..."

He was a little puzzled.

Didn't he act clearly enough?



"Don't lie to your grandparents."

Grandma pretended to have a serious face.
