This was really the gentlest tone Cheng Zhimin had ever heard from him.
Shu Xiaonian walked over slowly, and Shu Xiaohe also reached out and took his grandfather's hand and slowly moved over. Both children have inherited the excellent appearance of their parents, making people feel happy just by looking at them.
Zhuo Hong held a small hand in one hand. It was fleshy and soft, and the palm of the hand felt hot. He had shaken hands with countless people in his life. Behind those hands were corrupt criminals, prisoners, and the helmsmen of power in this world.
He has held all kinds of hands, but only these two pairs of small hands made him feel the purity and beauty of the world.
People have been in the power field for too long, and their hearts have become iron. People have also become a working machine, hard, unsmiling, and ignorant of warmth.
The child stared at him curiously, looking him up and down. The little girl pointed at his temples.
"Grandpa has white hair here."
Zhuo Hong unconsciously raised his hand and touched his temples, as if he heard his secretary say that he had started to grow some white hair recently, and asked him if he wanted to dye it.
"Grandpa, you have to rest well so that you don't get gray hair." Shu Xiaohe remembered that her classmate's grandmother also had a lot of gray hair. Grandma said it grew because she didn't sleep well at night.
None of the Zhuo family can speak sweet words. Zhuo Hong and Cheng Zhimin only talk harshly to each other every day. Zhuo Yu'an is proud and disdainful. Shu Xiaonian follows Zhuo Yu'an's personality and is not very talkative, but Shu Xiaohe is like herself and talks sweet words.
Just open your mouth and come.
Zhuo Hong lived to be almost 60 years old, and he was used to being strict all his life. He was strict with his family and subordinates, but he was strict with Shu Xiaohe. He was told that grandpa should rest well, so he was taken down.
Don’t answer awkwardly: OK!
His voice was unconsciously softer than before.
When Shu Tinglan and Zhuo Yu'an came back from their visit to the living room, they saw Shu Xiaonian and Zhuo Hong sitting face to face next to backgammon, playing chess, while Shu Xiaohe was sitting on Zhuo Hong's lap, making trouble.
Zhuo Hong was not upset when his brother and grandpa were not allowed to play chess properly and allowed her to make trouble.
Zhuo Yu'an's eyes almost dropped. His strict father, who only taught others lessons, could be so gentle at times. Sure enough, he was a relative from another generation.
Perhaps because there are two children here, the atmosphere in the Zhuo family is much better than Shu Tinglan imagined. Although Zhuo Hong and Cheng Zhimin are serious people, the children's childish words often make them laugh.
Smiling at the corner of his mouth.
Even because of the arrival of the children, Zhuo Hong and Cheng Zhimin communicated more than usual. They took their two children with them wherever they went, so that Zhuo Yu'an and Shu Tinglan became more relaxed.
On New Year's Eve, Zhuo Hong and Zhuo Yuan took their two children to burn incense for the old man in his room, while Shu Tinglan accompanied Cheng Zhimin to help in the kitchen.
Because it was New Year's Eve, and this was the first time for two children to celebrate the New Year this year, Cheng Zhimin had to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner for his family in person, without letting the nanny do it.
"Tinglan, what is your specialty dish? Make one tonight too."
Shu Tinglan was embarrassed. She really didn't know how to cook. In the past few years in H City, she cooked the food for the children and couldn't even cook a single dish.
: "I'll be responsible for washing the vegetables." Since he couldn't cook, he volunteered to take on other tasks.
"Okay, these are all needed, you can wash them." Cheng Zhimin allowed her to participate in the preparation of the New Year's Eve dinner because he liked her and treated her like a family member.
Anyway, looking at the Buddha's face instead of the monk's face, considering that she raised the children so well, it can be regarded as a meritorious service.
