He moved his eyes away from the endoscope. While driving, Liu Weicheng always put safety first, looked straight ahead, and asked like this.
This question was heard by Zhang Cuilan, who had been absent-minded since getting in the car and was stunned for a few seconds.
"Um."
If you are not in a good mood, anyone with a discerning eye can see that you are depressed.
"What's wrong? Did you encounter any difficulties?"
"Nothing."
"Then maybe I'm worrying too much."
"..."
Listening to Liu Weicheng's worries in the driver's seat, Zhang Cuilan herself knew very well that if she continued to maintain this state, sooner or later her granddaughter would notice it.
He clenched his hands on his legs, then closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths.
After adjusting his posture, he slowly loosened his clenched fists.
My hair has turned completely gray.
My hair used to be somewhat dotted with black strands, but after not seeing it for a few days, when I looked carefully again, I saw that it was already white hair.
Leaning her head to the side, Zhang Cuilan looked at Liu Weicheng in the driver's seat in front of her, looked around the interior of the car as if to change the subject, and then asked.
"New car?"
"It's been open for almost a month."
"How much did it cost?"
"A hundred thousand."
"So much money!"
In the early 21st century, vehicles were still considered a luxury item.
And even if it is an ordinary car for the really rich, in the eyes of ordinary people like Zhang Cuilan, it is already an extremely luxurious car. They usually go out either on foot or by taking the bus.
What's more, the young man in front of her has grown up under her eyes. Who would have thought that the man driving the car now was just a young apprentice who worked early and stayed late, and was scolded by his boss six months ago.
After three days of separation, Zhang Cuilan felt that Liu Weicheng in front of her was very capable.
She has always wanted to bring her granddaughter into a relationship with her, but her granddaughter's status as a high school student has always been a big gap between them.
Zhang Cuilan still remembers the conversation they had alone after sending Zhao Xuanying away in the hospital.
After telling the whole story about his granddaughter, when asked if he could help take care of Zhao Xuanying, he analyzed it very calmly.
From three aspects: age, current situation, and future...
When Zhang Cuilan was young, getting married at the age of sixteen or seventeen did not seem so outrageous. Rather, it was the norm for most young people at that time.
Even she got married before she was twenty.
In her opinion, Liu Weicheng, who is only three years older than her granddaughter, is very suitable, but the other party has always been worried about Zhao Xuanying's status as a high school student.
Obviously during that time, the atmosphere between the two became more and more harmonious. As a bystander, Zhang Cuilan could also detect that the other party definitely liked Zhao Xuanying.
It just makes her feel pity.
It's a pity that the Liu Weicheng in front of her is too upright and will consider too many things that she doesn't think she needs to consider.
Back in the hospital, when Zhang Cuilan asked Liu Weicheng if he was willing to help take care of Zhao Xuanying for the rest of her life, the other party said something that she could not refute.
[If she goes to college after marrying me, what if her classmates run against her behind her back? Speech sometimes really brings tremendous pressure to people.]
Zhang Cuilan had never considered this point.
But after Liu Weicheng pointed it out, she felt that this was a problem.
But now...he no longer needs to consider this issue.
Liu Weicheng already has a girlfriend, so she can't force him to do anything. After all, from the time they met to becoming acquaintance, the other party has brought too much help to the two of them. If there are any complaints about this, it would be too much.
No conscience anymore.
Being able to educate a well-behaved and sensible girl like Zhao Xuanying, Zhang Cuilan, as an elder, must have no problem with her three views.
Perhaps due to outdated thinking, one may sometimes act inappropriately.
But the essence is that she is still an elder that no one can dislike.
The atmosphere inside the car is gradually returning to normal.
The gloomy atmosphere at the beginning disappeared as Zhang Cuilan became more and more energetic as she chatted.
Like most elders, Zhang Cuilan also had a general understanding of Liu Weicheng's current situation. Although she didn't understand what he said about his career, she felt inexplicable admiration.
The Liu Weicheng in front of him didn't look like a young man who had just been struggling in society for a long time.
More like a veteran who is good at communicating with others.
What kind of network, mode, and some professional terms made Zhang Cuilan confused. She didn't stop the conversation until she was about to reach the pedestrian street.
There was a dense flow of people, and it was difficult to find a parking space. After Liu Weicheng parked the car, the three of them got out of the car.
The autumn wind blew by, blowing Zhao Xuanying's hair.
I took off the hairpins and fixed my hair. As if I had regained my strength, I smoothed the long sleeves of my school uniform and prepared to follow my grandma to rush to the discount store.
As long as she can save money for her family, Zhao Xuanying will become a different person.
But this is just a random saying, there is no clearance sale store.
After following her grandma around the pedestrian street for a long time, Zhao Xuanying could not find a store that sold winter clothes. Even if there were clearance stores, most of them were out-of-season summer clothes.
Liu Weicheng parked the car and followed the grandmother and grandson for a short distance before leaving. He told them to go shopping first and meet at the north end of the pedestrian street later.
Even compared to summer, the weather today is obviously much cooler.
But I couldn’t resist shopping from beginning to end just to find stores with discounts and promotions.
Women seem to have quite a talent for shopping.
But even so, Zhao Xuanying also showed signs of fatigue after such a long time. She found a place to rest and arranged for her grandma to rest, and she also sat aside.
After watching the pedestrians coming and going in front of me, after a while, he looked at Zhang Cuilan with a doubtful tone.
Asked.
"Is there really a sale? I've been shopping around for several times and I haven't seen any."
"..."
"Did Aunt Pan remember it wrong?"
"..."
He looked at Zhao Xuanying who asked him, and looked at his granddaughter's little face full of doubts.
The girl in front of her has grown up so much that occasionally when she falls asleep and dreams, Zhang Cuilan can still dream about her cute appearance when she was a child.
Growing up, Zhao Xuanying suffered a lot of grievances.
Even when she grew up, I couldn't give her a good living environment because I was incompetent.
Not to mention living in that small rental house with him, if Liu Weicheng hadn't helped find their new residence, the two of them would still be squeezed into nook and cranny of the city.
If... this child changes to a new environment.
If this kid could live a prosperous life...
Perhaps for her, this is the happiest thing...
"grandmother?"
After waiting for a while, Zhao Xuanying did not hear Zhang Cuilan's response. She looked at the other party as if she was in a daze. After first calling her softly a few times, she raised her hand and waved it up and down in front of her grandma's eyes.
Attracted by this behavior, Zhang Cuilan pursed her lips when she recovered, her wrinkled face full of tangles.
After nearly half a minute, it returned to normal.
Look at the girl in front of you.
"Yingying, if your dad..."
"You two are here!"
The words that were about to blurt out were not fully uttered, and the next second Zhang Cuilan's voice was completely covered by a male voice.
The sight that was originally focused on grandma suddenly opened, and Zhao Xuanying looked in the direction of the sound.
Looking at Liu Weicheng emerging from the crowd.
And...the shopping bags the other person is holding in both hands.
