"Neither." The servant continued to shake his head and denied Ye Ningbai's guess.

Turning his head to think about it, the servant simply described to Ye Ningbai, "I'm a bit old, about fifty. He's an old man, but he still looks very strong."

Listening to the servant's description, Ye Ningbai searched in her mind, but to no avail.Among the circles she came into contact with, there were very few people of this age.

Ye Ningbai's thoughtful expression caught the servant's eyes, but she didn't say anything, just waited quietly.

Two minutes later, Ye Ningbai turned to the servant with doubts, "Then how did he get in?"

"Ah, by the way, I almost forgot about this." The servant suddenly said as if he had made a major discovery, "He has an old photo, which is a photo of him and his wife's father."

In the villa, at the corner of the stairs, there is a photo wall designed by Ye Ningbai himself.There are pictures of relatives and friends hanging there.Those are full of memories.

The servant naturally knew what Ye Ningbai's father looked like.She won't let anyone in here.

Hearing that such an important factor, after thinking about it, Ye Ningbai seemed to have some confidence in his heart.However, still not sure.

Ye Ningbai didn't say anything else, she walked in front, and the servant obediently followed behind.

Walking to the living room, Ye Ningbai saw the person sitting at the square table for six at a glance. It was Uncle Zhang, and she never forgot.

"Uncle Zhang!" Ye Ningbai was a little excited, her tone changed, and she didn't even notice it.

Hearing a familiar voice calling, the person sitting upright immediately got up and turned to the source of the voice.

"Be safe, Ning Bai."

Uncle Zhang looked at the slim Ye Ningbai, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, it really is the eighteenth change of a female college student. "I didn't expect that you would grow up so big in a blink of an eye. I was still worried when I came here, would you still remember me?"

Hearing Uncle Zhang's joke, Ye Ningbai couldn't help laughing.Walking to the front, he quickly stretched out his hand to invite Uncle Zhang to sit down, "When I was young, Uncle Zhang treated me very well, just like my own daughter, how could I forget you."

"Oh, it really is old. When I see you, I think of the days when I was in Anjia. You were so tall back then, and you are so capable now." Uncle Zhang said while gesticulating.Looking around, the decoration style of this huge villa is very unique, low-key and luxurious, concise and to the point, you can't find anything superfluous, and at the same time, it won't make you feel that there is something missing here.

Seeing such a unique interior decoration, when Uncle Zhang set his sights on Ye Ningbai again, he inexplicably felt that the atmosphere of the villa and the owner were very harmonious, as if they were integrated into one.

Once, Uncle Zhang and Ye Ningbai's father worked together as servants in An's house. In the blink of an eye, many years have passed.Ye Ningbai actually owned such a family by himself.Uncle Zhang couldn't help sighing, "Sure enough, the younger generation is awesome!"

"Uncle Zhang was joking." Ye Ningbai didn't want to say too much about it. She doesn't know about Uncle Zhang's situation now, and she was afraid that it would make people feel uncomfortable.Turning to the servant, "Go and ask the driver to pick up Ruixuan and tell him that he is a friend of Grandpa."

"Yes, ma'am." The servant agreed, turned around and left.

"Ning Bai is already married?" Uncle Zhang was a little surprised, but more of a joy.It's like watching your children get married and start a business.There is an inexplicable feeling of completeness that is indescribable.Thinking of this, Uncle Zhang couldn't help feeling a little sore in his nose.

"Well, it's a boy, very cute, a little mischievous, but I think you'll be very happy to meet him soon." Ye Ningbai always remembered the scene of being pampered by his father and Uncle Zhang in Anjia when he was a child.She will never forget those who helped her.

"Well, I think that little guy must be very similar to you, smart and capable." Uncle Zhang seemed to have imagined the appearance of Ye Ningbai's son.It must be a child like Ye Ningbai, resolute, stubborn, and strong.

"Uncle Zhang, what have you been doing recently? How long do you plan to stay here?" Ye Ningbai had already looked at Uncle Zhang while speaking, and she felt that Uncle Zhang's life was very ordinary.For her, Uncle Zhang was the warmth of her childhood, and now she has some abilities. She hopes that Uncle Zhang can live a better life in his later years.

Faced with this problem, Uncle Zhang lowered his eyes slightly, as if he was a little unsatisfactory.With a long sigh, he raised his head to look at Ye Ningbai again, and then said slowly, "Actually, after you left An's house, I left An's house right after you. There's no point in waiting."

Ye Ningbai stared at Uncle Zhang intently, and quietly listened to him continue to say, "After I left, I dragged two friends out to make a living and do some small business. It's just that it's a little unsatisfactory. If you make a voice with your friends, you will inevitably quarrel. Some things are really unclear, and in the end it will be nothing."

"If you do it yourself, the good times won't last long. Business is not easy. Now many officials protect each other, and those of us who do small business will be affected by Chiyu. Seeing that there is no hope, we come back."

"Well, Uncle Zhang has been exhausted all these years. It's true that no matter what you do these days, it's hard to do. Many things can't be solved with money, and it's hard to move without connections." Ye Ningbai seemed to have some empathy.

"Yeah, business is not doing well, so I came back again. However, I didn't think about going back to settle down again." It's easy to come out, but it's hard to stay in again.After all, after so many years of walking, they may have changed several groups of people.

"How did Uncle Zhang find me?" Ye Ningbai was curious, did she have any other friends?

"Have you opened a new store? I saw it. Then I asked someone and came to you with a photo. It's rare to find someone I know when I come back, so I will stop by to see you." There seemed to be a kind of old-fashioned in Uncle Zhang's words. a feeling of.

"Well, thank you Uncle Zhang for your concern. I have been doing well these years. If Uncle Zhang has nothing important to do, please stay here for a while. Ruixuan has grown up so much, Uncle Zhang, you haven't taken a good look at him. " Ye Ningbai wanted to keep Uncle Zhang for the time being, and then find a way to arrange for him to do something, try to let him spend his old age peacefully, and stop going out alone to try to solve food and clothing.

After working hard outside for so long, Ye Ningbai couldn't be more clear about it.The current world has changed, no matter who it is, without mutual benefit, it is impossible to get together.However, there is no unchanging principle in this world, isn't it all that if you are united for a long time, you will be divided, and if you are divided for a long time, you will be united.

"I was thinking of coming to see you first. I have no other plans. I'm just a widowed old man. It doesn't matter where I go." Uncle Zhang couldn't help but feel a little depressed when he said this.

Seeing that it was time for dinner, Ye Ningbai insisted on keeping Uncle Zhang, "Uncle Zhang, stay and have dinner together."

"Alright, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I also really want to see what Ruixuan looks like." To Uncle Zhang, Ye Ningbai is like his daughter, and Gong Ruixuan is like his grandson.Now, he is single, but like other old people, he wants to enjoy family happiness.

"Does Uncle Zhang want to eat anything in particular? I'll get someone to make it for you." Ye Ningbai is very clear that after a person reaches a certain age, he can no longer eat and drink like he did when he was young, and he is not so taboo .Now, for many reasons, many things can't be eaten.

"It's nothing, just less oil and less salt. People, I'm getting older, and I'm a bit useless." Uncle Zhang said with a self-mockery.

"How come, don't you really advocate eating like this now? Eat healthy. Uncle Zhang is not old, not at all." Ye Ningbai said nice words with a smile.

"Haha, you're the only one who can talk, and you're still the same as when you were a child." Hearing what Ye Ningbai said, Uncle Zhang didn't think it was fake at all, and instead smiled happily.He didn't seem to be smiling much for a long time.

During the break between the two of them talking, Ye Ningbai ordered the servant to cook a sumptuous dinner for Uncle Zhang.

When the two of them chatted all over the place from their parents, Gong Ruixuan was picked up by the driver.

"Mom!" Gong Ruixuan's shout was heard before the person appeared.

"Ruixuan, come quickly! Look who this is!" Ye Ningbai stooped to catch Gong Ruixuan who was rushing towards him firmly.And held out his finger to show him.

Uncle Zhang looked at Gong Ruixuan's little red face, as if he saw Ye Ningbai's appearance when he was a child, he couldn't help being a little excited, and said with a smile, "This little guy is very clever, exactly the same as you were when you were a child."

"Ruixuan, this is mother's uncle, you should call him Grandpa." Ye Ningbai said slowly to Gong Ruixuan word by word.

"En." Gong Ruixuan seemed to be a little nervous when he saw the stranger.Rubbing back and forth in Ye Ningbai's arms, she didn't dare to move forward.

"Hey, go over and let grandpa give you a hug." Ye Ningbai gently pushed Gong Ruixuan.

Glancing at Ye Ningbai, Gong Ruixuan hesitated and trotted towards Uncle Zhang.Uncle Zhang had already squatted down and stretched his arms to hug him.He hugged her and smiled from ear to ear.

At this time, Ye Ningbai said the thought that suddenly came to her heart, "Uncle Zhang, actually I have an unfeeling request. I have been busy recently. There is no one to take care of me at home, especially Gong Ruixuan. Small, you can't live without people around you."

"Ningbai, tell us what you have to say, we are not outsiders." Uncle Zhang hugged Gong Ruixuan, looked at Ye Ningbai's hesitant to speak, and frowned instantly, feeling that Ye Ningbai regarded him as an outsider .

"I want to ask Uncle Zhang to stay and be my housekeeper. In this way, you don't have to be displaced, and we can be together, not to mention, you like Gong Ruixuan so much. Uncle Zhang, what do you think?" Ye Ning Bai Yigulu said it all.

Looking at Gong Ruixuan in his arms, Uncle Zhang really liked this little guy, he was very grateful for Ye Ningbai's move, so he agreed, "Okay, I'll stay."
