Tannin answered the door.

A strange face appeared on the video doorbell. It was an old man, wearing a mandarin jacket, with a tall and straight figure. Even though he was nearly eighty years old, he still looked hale and hearty.Dan Ning was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"Me, I'm looking for Huo Mingyan." The old man's voice was very loud, and he was full of energy when he opened his voice.He smiled kindly, and his already friendly face became more kind, "You are Xiao Dan, right? Open the door for my old man?"

At this time, Huo Mingyan had already walked to the door, opened the outer door instead of Danning, and opened the door of the main house at the same time.

"Who is this old man?" Tan Ning couldn't help asking.

"My grandfather." Huo Mingyan didn't change his face.

"Huh?" Dan Ning stared at Huo Mingyan.

"Just now Uncle Zuo called to say that my grandpa tricked the security personnel away and flew over to us by himself."

"..."

Dan Ning followed Huo Mingyan to welcome him out.

Mr. Huo was stopping on the way to the main house, looking up at the green persimmons on the tree.Seeing Danning and Huo Mingyan coming out, he chuckled: "I came here suddenly, didn't I scare you?"

Huo Mingyan still had no expression on his face: "No, Uncle Zuo called me just now."

Tannin: "..."

Mr. Huo looked at Danning with a smile.

Tan Ning has always been eloquent, but now he doesn't know what to say, so he can only say hello in a polite manner: "Hello."

"You are also good." Mr. Huo nodded in satisfaction, raised his cane, pointed to the persimmon tree next to him and said, "I think the persimmons on this tree grow the fastest, and they may be ready to eat after a while."

"I think so too!" Tan Ning responded immediately, "You came just in time. Yesterday I saw that there were a few bunches of grapes on the grape rack next to them that were about to ripen. They were purple and purple. I tasted one, and it was very sweet."

"Then I want to taste it." Mr. Huo said, "Lead me to see the grapes. I haven't seen grapes hanging on the vine for a long time. When I was young, I used to work in a winery. Taking care of those tens of thousands of grapes is more troublesome than managing tens of thousands of soldiers—after all, if you are in charge of soldiers, you can just tell them what to do, but the grapes don’t understand what you say.”

Tanning casually led Mr. Huo to the grape rack.

Huo Mingyan: "..."

Huo Mingyan paused and followed.

"Hey, these grapes are good. They are beautiful in color when used to make wine, and they are sweet when eaten directly." Mr. Huo praised them when he saw them.

Tanning picked up the scissors on the side: "You can pick two skewers and cut them to eat."

Mr. Huo cheerfully took the scissors and cut two bunches of grapes. He was very satisfied when looking at them horizontally and vertically. He was satisfied with the grapes and the tannins.His grandson is good at everything, but he doesn't know how to live. The child in front of him is full of cleverness. At first glance, he is completely different from his grandson. The two of them complement each other perfectly!

Intuit suitable!

Tan Ning took Mr. Huo into the house with grapes, and all the nervousness at the beginning was gone.

His family, grandpa went early, grandma was partial to uncle, no, a few years ago, he went to his father's unit to make trouble because of uncle, almost causing his father to lose his job.As for grandparents, I wish I never had his grandson.Although the relatives on the stepmother's side are very good, they are separated by a layer and cannot get close.Seeing the kind old Mr. Huo in front of him, Dan Ning liked it very much.

Mr. Huo came over right after getting off the plane. He didn't have dinner, so Tanning went to the kitchen to cook something for Mr. Huo.

As soon as Dan Ning left, Mr. Huo turned to look at Huo Mingyan.Mr. Huo said: "Why do you look so unhappy, kid? Do you think I disturb the world of the two of you?"

Huo Mingyan paused.

At this time, Tanning should accompany him to watch the news, and then they take a bath one after another, he reads, and Tanning practices runes, or turns into a cat and lies on his lap to read the newly collected books with him.This is indeed a two-person world.

Thinking about how Dan Ning and his grandfather had a happy conversation just now, Huo Mingyan said somewhat insincerely: "No."

Mr. Huo said: "Aren't you still saying? I can tell what you're thinking just by looking at your eyes." He laughed, "You have always kept your words to yourself since you were a child, and you can only tell through your little eyes. The situation is coming."

Afterwards, Mr. Huo basically asked questions, and Huo Mingyan occasionally answered.Mr. Huo felt that if it wasn't for his grandson, he would definitely kick him, but when it was his grandson's turn, he couldn't bear to kick him, so he could only sigh.

Good thing the tannins came out quickly with the meal.

Tan Ning said: "I didn't cook anything else, it was left over from the evening, don't you mind?"

"It smells very good, what do you mind?" Mr. Huo took a look at the rice, and found that the rice grains were distinct, and each grain was slender and beautiful, and it was lovely under the light.Although it is not freshly cooked, it doesn't smell as good as when it was just cooked, but it still makes people's index fingers move.Mr. Huo boasted: "Your rice is not bad, and it's cooked well. Just looking at it will give you an appetite."

"I tried all the good rice on the market, and Ming Yan likes this one the most, probably because the shape is relatively uniform." Tan Ning said.The rice is basically the same size, and the shape is quite consistent. In addition, the super good rice cooker recommended by senior Nan Gezi, it will not deform after cooking!

Huo Mingyan: "..."

Is he someone who looks at the shape of rice grains while eating?

Mr. Huo quite agreed: "This kid's picky eater is quite difficult to figure out. Sometimes I don't pay attention to it. I don't know why he doesn't like to eat."

"I went upstairs." Huo Mingyan didn't want to stay in the living room any longer.

Tannin: "..."

Seeing Huo Mingyan go upstairs, Mr. Huo said: "This kid had this temper when he was a child. He was not happy when he heard a word from others. He was only two or three years old at that time. He would not pay attention to others when he was discussed."

Tan Ning couldn't help but pull up a chair and sit while listening to Mr. Huo talk about Huo Mingyan's childhood.

Mr. Huo said: "Actually, I was still at work at that time. I was very busy and didn't have much time to accompany him. His father and brother didn't come home very often. It was too late when I found out what happened to him. , can only send him to the bay.”

Tannins are silent.

Mr. Huo said: "Originally, I planned to find a suitable person for Mingyan to engage him when he graduated from high school, but I heard Uncle Zuo said that Mingyan had someone he liked, so I gave up. I was always Ming Yan brought him back to show me, but it never came."

Tanning said, "I'm sorry."

Mr. Huo said: "Silly boy, what are you sorry for? Mingyan's father's name is too big, and many people want to post it. For example, the Lu family who made trouble for your family at that time-they didn't make trouble for your family at all. It's about your father and your mother's old affairs, but you want to marry the Huo family, fearing that you will ruin their affairs, so you resort to that kind of trick. "

Tannin did not expect to have this weight.

He thought that the Lu family simply didn't want him to go to the capital.

Mr. Huo said: "It's too late when I know, you have already gone to serve."

Tanning didn't say a word.

Mr. Huo said: "I haven't told Ming Yan about these things, because he is in a very bad state. He dropped out of college after only one month. After a long period of isolation, he even had self-harm and suicidal tendencies.”

Tanning's hand trembled.

Mr. Huo said: "No one dares to mention you to him. You know, he is so stuffy in his heart, even if we are provoked, we can't see it. I dare not take the risk." He stared at Dan Ning, "I was hesitant to tell you about Ming Yan's situation, but you and Ming Yan are together now, and you have the right to know."

Neither of them spoke again.

Tan Ning sat quietly at the side, recalling the taciturn Huo Mingyan in his memory.He provoked Huo Mingyan and then left. He never thought that what he did would cause Huo Mingyan such pain.

They were all too young then.

Tan Ning earnestly promised: "No matter what happens in the future, we will never be separated again."

Mr. Huo smiled.

Tanning prepares a guest room for Mr. Huo.

Tanning went back to his room when Mr. Huo was about to go to bed.

Huo Mingyan was reading a book on the bed.

Tan Ning touched it, put his arms around Huo Mingyan's neck and kissed him.

"What did he tell you?" Huo Mingyan asked.

"I didn't say anything, I just said that you were very stingy when you were a child, and you ignored people who said a few words about you." Dan Ning smiled.

Huo Mingyan: "..."

Huo Mingyan silently moved Tanning to the side, and continued to read.

Tanning persevered and leaned over to kiss him.

Huo Mingyan clasped his wrist impatiently, and kissed him back hard.

Kiss him like a cat.

Tannin: "..."

No one is sexually harassed properly.

Tan Ning could only obediently lie on Huo Mingyan's lap and read a book with Huo Mingyan.After Huo Mingyan went to bed on time, Tan Ning couldn't fall asleep a bit. He stared at Huo Mingyan's sleeping profile for a long time, leaned up to rub it, turned around and opened the door of the room, ready to go to the next door to see the little paper figurine.

The little paper man stayed in the room reading a book, ran out when he heard the knock on the door, and opened the door bolt with a snap.

Seeing the big cat outside the door, the little paper man froze for a moment, and called cautiously, "Dad, Dad?"

Tanning raised his paw and rubbed the little paper figurine's head.

The little paper man hugged Tan Ning's paw, feeling that the furry touch was very novel.

"Come on, I'll take you out to play." Tanning let the little paper figurine crawl up his back along his paws.

The little paper man was very happy, and he was not afraid of becoming Tanning, a cat, and happily climbed onto Tanning's back.

"Grab it firmly!" Tan Ning greeted, and jumped onto the window sill with the little paper figurine, jumped from the window to the fence, bypassed the grape trellis, and jumped to the fence next door.

"Dog!" the little paper man excitedly pointed to the pug next door.

"Yes, that's a dog."

"Woof!" The pug at No. 87 stood up.

"Woof!" The little paper figurine imitated the pug.

The pug looked at the cat passing by the fence strangely, and doubts flashed in his head: why does the cat bark?

"Hello." Mynah at No. 86 stood on the shelf and said hello to Tanning and the little paper man politely.

"Hello." The little paper figurine asked Tanning curiously while hugging Tanning's hair, "Dad, is that myna?"

"Mynah, mynah." Mynah corrected the little paper figurine seriously, "I'm mynah, not mynah."

"I'm sorry, I admitted my mistake!" The little paper figurine immediately apologized.

Tan Ning jumped off the wall with the little paper man.

The mynah inside the wall is still repeating: "I am mynah, not mynah."

The little paper man happily counted with Tanning: "Two! Talk!"

Tanning said, "Yes, you talked to them."

On the ground, Tanning walked more steadily. The little paper man sat on Tanning's back, looked left and right, and asked Tanning various questions from time to time.Fortunately, Dan Ning didn't return what he had learned to the teacher and textbooks, and he was able to answer the little paper figurine's questions in sevens and eighties.

"Take you to see an uncle cat." Tanning said.

"Okay!" The little paper man felt the night wind blowing head-on, and said to Danning, "Dad, it's so big outside."

"Do you like to come outside?"

"I like it." The little paper man thought for a while, then added, "I like to go outside with my father."

"Why?" Tanning was surprised.

"It's too big outside, I don't know the way home when I go out by myself," said the little paper figurine.

Tanning didn't talk to the little paper man again.

He quickly crossed the streets and alleys, and then walked around to Nanshan along the road with street lights in the square.He has been too busy recently and hasn't come out for a long time. He has to go and see the cat boss.

The cat boss is still squatting on that rock.

Tanning ran under the stone, raised his head and meowed.

The little paper man followed Dan Ning's footsteps: "Meow~!"

Tannin: "..."

The cat boss turned his head and saw Dan Ning coming with a small thing in clothes on his back, his eyes narrowed slightly.It jumped down from the rock and stared at the little paper man seriously.

The little paper man slid down Tan Ning's back, hiding behind Tan Ning, poked out half of his head cautiously and took a sneak peek at the cat boss.

The cat boss said: "How do you bring this kind of thing out?"

"Take it out for some air."

"There will be trouble." The cat boss jumped onto the rock again, looking at the dark sea in the distance.

"What trouble?" Tanning frowned.

"There are sea blind men coming ashore, and there are quite a few of them." The cat boss looked solemn, turned around and roared.

Pairs of bright eyes appeared in the bushes

The little paper man immediately jumped back on Danning's back and asked, "Dad, what is that?"

"It's all cats, Uncle Cat, Auntie Cat, Brother Cat and Sister Cat." Tan Ning comforted him softly, "Don't be afraid, they all listen to Uncle Cat."

"Uncle Cat is amazing!" The little paper man immediately looked at Boss Cat with admiration.

Cat Boss: "..."

The cat boss gathered the cats lurking on Nanshan, and they all went to the pier.Before leaving, the cat boss turned his head and told Dan Ning: "You guys stay here first, let's deal with those sea-blind people who are going to go ashore."

Danning didn't expect to bring a little paper figurine out to recognize people, and he would attract blind Haizi.Thinking that I am a cat now, and I have a weak little paper man with me, I can only jump on the rock and look in the direction of the west pier.

Cat boss, they are moving very fast, and they are almost running to the pier.

Tannin has good night vision, and can clearly see what is happening on the coast even when it is far away.

The little paper figurine stood on tiptoes, with a pair of small paws lying on Tanning's head, poking out half of its head to follow Tanning in the distance.It saw the dark, rumbling sea-blind man crawling up the shore from the sea, and couldn't help but ask, "Dad, what is that? I really don't think I've seen it before!"

"That's the blind man from the sea, he went ashore to explore the way." Tan Ning looked worriedly at the lighthouse in the distance.The cat boss went to the pier, will he be tempted to jump into the sea and swim to the lighthouse?

Fortunately, what Tan Ning was worried about didn't happen. He and the little paper figurines didn't stay where they were for long, and the big cats came back. Some of the cats still had a black and autumnal sea blind man in their mouths.

The cat boss didn't eat, but the other cats gathered around to share the food.

"Is this really kelp flavored?" Tanning asked the cat boss curiously.

"You can try it." The cat boss held the Haixiazi it brought back in front of Tanning.

"Forget it." Tanning thanked Bumin.

The little paper man is eager to try, but the tannin dismisses its exuberant curiosity.The old devil said that the little paper man gets his sex whatever he eats, which roughly means that the little paper man is like a piece of white paper, and he will gravitate to whatever he eats. At present, the little paper man eats human food, and he himself regards himself as a Human children, if they eat these sea blind people, I don't know what will happen.

The little paper man stood obediently beside Tanning, and stopped staring at the blind man without Tanning's permission.

The cat boss threw Hai Xiazi into the group of cats.

The cats ate the Hai Xiazi caught by the cat boss again.

"Although there is no danger this time, we still have to be careful." The cat boss warned Danning seriously.

Tannin nodded.

He didn't expect that the little paper man would be like Huo Mingyan, easy to attract Hai Xiazi and the like.

The cat boss wants to send Tanning and the little paper man back.

Tan Ning did not refuse the kindness of the cat boss, and walked back with the little paper figurine on his back stepping on the street lamp.

At the entrance of Fushouli Lane, the cat boss squatted under the street lamp and watched Dan Ning go in.

Dan Ning ran back to the door of No. 88, turned his head to look at the cat boss who was squatting there looking at himself and the little paper man, climbed up the fence, and got in through the window on the second floor again.

Dan Ning helped the little paper figurine to close the windows tightly, and then went to the research room to get a few protective charms, and stuck them around the doors and windows.He said: "If you are in danger, call us loudly. If we are not at home, don't let others find out. If you can't hide, run away and go to the cat boss just now."

The little paper man nodded seriously.

Dan Ning gave the little paper man a lot of safety education before re-opening the tablet for the little paper man to continue playing.

Seeing that Tanning seemed to be leaving, the little paper man grabbed Tanning's paw.

The little paper man patted the pillow next to him: "Daddy sleeps here."

Tannin: "..."

Tan Ning: "Did you get scared when you saw those sea-blind men just now?"

The little paper figurine has a little head.

Tan Ning thought for a while, anyway, Huo Mingyan was already asleep, so he simply lay down next to the little paper figurine and closed his eyes to sleep.

The little paper man concentrated on watching an episode of "One Hundred Thousand Whys", when he heard the purr of a cat.It looked aside curiously, and saw the cat's long beard.

Dad's beard!

The little paper man couldn't help reaching out and touching it.

squeak-

The door was pushed open from the outside.

The little paper man immediately retracted his hand.

Snapped!

The lights were turned on.

"Dad, Dad." The little paper figurine whispered.

It knew that Tanning usually slept with Huo Mingyan, and when he saw Huo Mingyan approaching, he immediately felt that he had done something wrong, and his little head couldn't help but lower his head.

Huo Mingyan stepped forward and hugged the sleeping black cat, and said to the little paper figurine, "Take a break after playing enough."

Hearing that Huo Mingyan's tone was calm, he didn't seem to be angry, the little paper figurine immediately agreed happily: "Okay!"

The next day Dan Ning woke up and found that he was still sleeping next to Huo Mingyan. He was stunned for a moment, pressed his paw on Huo Mingyan's wrist, pressed the two jade gossips together, raised his head and wanted to kiss Huo Mingyan, but found that he couldn't reach it , can only push Huo Mingyan's chest with his head.

Huo Mingyan opened his eyes, saw the little head on his chest clearly, leaned over slightly and kissed it.

Tanning suddenly turned back into a human body.

He sat naked on Huo Mingyan's body.

Seeing Huo Mingyan's lips so close at hand, Danning couldn't help but kiss them again.

It's a pity that Huo Mingyan lifted him away expressionlessly: "Brush your teeth."

Tannin: "..."

Tan Ning could only get out of bed in despair, brush his teeth, wash his face and put on his clothes, and act like a good young man with no desires.

Tan Ning cleaned himself up, and immediately hugged Huo Mingyan who was wearing his uniform and kissed him on both cheeks.While kissing, he said, "Well, since we lived together, I have slowly gained self-control that I am proud of."

Huo Mingyan: "..."

So is he.

Huo Mingyan kissed Dan Ning on the forehead, and went to wash himself.

Tan Ning went downstairs and was about to buy some materials and come back to make breakfast, but found that Mr. Huo had already woken up and was doing Tai Chi under the persimmon tree.

Tan Ning watched for a while, and waited for Mr. Huo to stop before boasting: "You play really well! You look soft, but you hide your strength, making it difficult for people to find the opening to attack."

"You kid still wants to attack me." Mr. Huo scolded with a smile.

"Of course not." Tanning said, "I just analyze it habitually."

"The years of military service were hard, right?" Mr. Huo stopped his momentum when he heard Dan Ning say "habitual", and asked kindly.

Serving in the military is both difficult and easy. The easy one is just going through the motions, which can be regarded as fulfilling the civic duty; the difficult one is for military merit.

In this case, after the service is over, you can directly have a not low title if you change jobs.Of course, not everyone can choose difficult ones, it depends on the overall quality: including intelligence, physical fitness, reaction ability, adaptability and so on.

The case of tannin is obviously difficult to pick.

It may still be the most difficult.

Mr. Huo looked at Tanning fixedly.

Tan Ning said: "I didn't feel bitter at that time. I had to train every day in the early stage, and my nerves were tense every day in the later stage. I didn't have a chance to feel uncomfortable or painful. Later, I didn't feel bitter in retrospect, and I still miss it occasionally. If the instructors said I was so He looks like a lunatic, he can't stay in the team for a long time, he just kicked me out, maybe I will stay for a few more years."

Compared with the complicated world outside, life in the camp is much simpler, and the feelings among comrades-in-arms are much more sincere.

After listening to Danning's words, Mr. Huo nodded and said, "Indeed, such days will make people miss you." He smiled brightly, "No matter what, it's fortunate that you didn't stay for a few more years, otherwise I don't know what Mingyan should do. Just do it."

Dan Ning also felt lucky when he thought of Huo Mingyan.

The instructor was right, he was a lunatic at that time, if he hadn't brought other people with him, he would have risked his life for any task.

After they separated, they both irresponsibly wanted to end everything with death.

But only after he really faced death did he realize that he was so eager to survive and to see Huo Mingyan again.Now that they're both mature enough, what else could separate them?

The tannins look firm.

Then the doorbell rang again.

Tan Ning went to open the door, and it turned out that Uncle Zuo had come.

Uncle Zuo is about forty years old this year, with an upright Chinese character face.Seeing that it was Tanning who opened the door, Uncle Zuo pointed at the food box in his hand: "The old man asked me to bring breakfast over, and there are all kinds of flavors."

"Trouble Uncle Zuo." Dan Ning smiled and welcomed Uncle Zuo inside.

In the end, before he took two steps, his cell phone rang again.

Tan Ning looked down and saw that it was Yuan Siyu.
