Flavored candle shop

In the end, it was those few fish that were on the dining table that sacrificed their lives to save Pei Ci, who had no memory of all the girls in the photo.

Seeing Pei Ci's relieved look, Hong Yao felt amused in her heart, and didn't continue to question him...Anyway, I've finished reading the album~

"Can I take a photo?"

Without thinking, Pei Ci said, "It's all yours."

After blurting out what was in his heart, Pei Ci suddenly had a subtle and ominous premonition, and he asked cautiously, "Which photo do you want to take?"

Hong Yao, who has already obtained the ownership of her boyfriend's growth album, happily flipped forward holding the album.The photo album is like a big turntable, and Pei Ci stopped at the intersection of his "primary school chicken" period and the kindergarten period in Pei Ci's eyes.

Pei Ci's heart skipped a beat, and he sighed secretly that it was true, his photo with beauty moles and big blush, except for the photo that looks like a monkey when he was just born, I'm afraid it won't be safe...

Then I saw Hong Yao neatly pulled out the photo of him joining the team on the first day, wearing a bright red scarf, his face slumped tightly, and a serious face saluting the national flag.

"This photo is really good, with a sense of faith. Our little Ah Ci must make a silent wish in his heart, hoping to grow up and serve the motherland~" Hong Yao took the photo and did not forget to comment.

Pei Ci suddenly felt that the beauty mole and big blush were not so shameful. After all, it was drawn uniformly by the teacher for all the children who were going to perform on stage, and it did not represent his own subjective wishes.

And the one chosen by Hongyao... He remembers that at that time, he seemed to be aroused by the national flag slowly rising in the majestic national anthem to serve the country... Was his ambition to become a scientist or a writer? home?

No matter how noble his childhood dream was, he finally inherited the family business and became a capitalist... What's the matter with this subtle sense of betrayal and melancholy... Pei Shi Group is a large taxpayer in the country, and his personal assets and income are also low. Paying taxes in a regular manner, and donating money and materials every year to build roads and build schools, is this considered a service to the motherland, right?The capitalist Mr. Pei fell into deep thought.

After stuffing the cute photo of her boyfriend into the transparent phone case, Hong Yao nodded with satisfaction, and then pushed Pei Ci, who was silent and not knowing what she was thinking, downstairs for dinner.

Perhaps it was because only the grandparents and grandchildren ate together in the Pei family in the past. The dining table is a simple style that can accommodate up to four people. It is so simple that it is a bit out of place in this gorgeous dining room.The dishes on it are very rich. Looking at the red medicine, there are at least five or six kinds of animal hooves... It seems that the old man really believes in the saying of "form complements form".

Pei Ci looked at the chicken feet and pig's trotters that were clearly placed in front of him, and felt powerless. How could he explain to his grandfather that he was in a wheelchair because his leg was not broken...

Mr. Pei sat at the main seat and greeted warmly: "Let's serve the meal. There are not so many rules at home. Today the table is served with the specialties of the chef at home. You can pick whatever you like!"

Seeing Pei Ci hesitate to raise his chopsticks at the hooves of various animals, Hong Yao thoughtfully filled him with half a bowl of milky white fish soup, and buried two pieces of tender tofu in the soup.He knew that Pei Ci had no appetite, but he didn't want to flatter his grandfather.

Moreover, Pei Ci's current state is not suitable for eating too much. In the incense candle shop, he used to make soup with thousand-year-old lotus seeds to hang Pei Ci's life. The natural and mellow aura not only bears hunger, but also has no burden on the body and soul. The only disadvantage is that the quantity is too small. When the few in hand are used up, he has to go to the lotus lake to catch the water ghost and squeeze the lotus pod...

……

After eating the meal out of the closet without any surprises, Pei Ci Hongyao accompanied Grandpa Pei to feed the fish raised in the ornamental pond in the backyard for a while. All the fish are their own, no matter how many they have, they have to be taken home, the big ones are on the dining table, and the small ones are thrown into the pond to be raised before serving on the dining table.

Because of this simple hobby and pragmatic thinking, there are no common auspicious koi and long-lived turtles in the ornamental pond in the backyard of Pei’s house, which is specially designed by a master. , Occasionally throw in a few loach eels and crayfish, the style of painting is very rural.

After feeding the fish and drinking a cup of tea in a harmonious atmosphere, the two bid farewell to the contented old man after Pei Ci was a little out of spirit and couldn't cope with other family activities.

The old man originally agreed cheerfully, but before they walked out of the living room, he shouted to stop the red medicine, that's right, there is only red medicine.

Looking at Grandpa Pei who looked at him kindly, Hong Yao suddenly felt a little guilty after not seeing him for a long time, and subconsciously looked at Pei Ci with eyes asking for help.

Just now he was able to get along with Mr. Pei harmoniously and naturally because of Pei Ci by his side. If he left Pei Ci and let him face his parents alone, he would be at a loss.

However, even though Pei Ci received Hong Yao's help-seeking gaze, he couldn't dispel Grandpa's enthusiasm for having a private chat with Hong Yao, so he could only make a helpless expression, and comforted him in a low voice: "It's okay, most likely I want to give you a meeting gift alone , I'll wait for you at the door."

After all, Pei Ci, who knew her grandfather's character very well, confidently steered the wheelchair and drove towards the gate of Pei's house, leaving Hong Yao who was nervous and dazed to look at Mr. Pei with a smile.

Until she sat back in the tea room again, Hong Yao's heart was still pounding... What Mr. Pei waited for him was really a gift, not a check for a considerable amount, and a classic sentence, "This is xxxx million, take it, leave my grandson'?

If the misfortune really happened as he imagined, he would definitely reject it with an imposing manner that cannot be subdued by might and cannot be moved by poverty! ... Forget it, let's take the check and run away with Ah Ci. Although he is not old in the incense and candle shop, there are a bunch of little cubs waiting to be fed, and they all point to him to raise them!Ah Ci's "selling her body money" is a huge sum of money anyway...

Just when Hong Yao seemed to be sitting upright with a serious face, but was actually thinking wildly, Mr. Pei's second pot of tea for today was finally brewed.

Mr. Pei struggled with addressing him for a few seconds while holding the smoking teacup, and then he said earnestly, "...Xiao Yao, it's really hard work for you."

Um?This is the beginning, it doesn't look like there will be a check package... Hong Yao answered cautiously: "It's not hard, it's not hard."

Mr. Pei sighed deeply, and said: "You don't have to be polite in front of me. How hard it is to be with that kid Pei Ci, as a grandfather, can I not know? That kid has been in poor health since he was a child, and the hospital issued a critical illness notice. Poker can be played on the table.”

Speaking of this, old man Pei sighed again, and then suddenly reacted and said that this kind of frustration is not good in front of his grandson's boyfriend. If the grandson's boyfriend quits, how can he explain to his grandson!That's really nowhere to cry!

Thinking of this, Mr. Pei hurriedly made amends: "But although that kid is physically weak, his life is extremely tough! He has been in the ICU so many times and came out alive!"

Hong Yao didn't understand what Old Master Pei meant, so she could only give a cautious 'hmm' to show her appreciation for Pei Ci's tenacious life.

Mr. Pei sighed even more this time: "It's really not easy to grow up with Pei Ci stumbling and dragging... I never expected that kid to give me retirement, let alone expect him to be like other ordinary young people. Falling in love, getting married and having children, his body that will collapse at any time is a disaster for everyone... But I really didn't expect that I didn't have such an idea, he himself has it!"

"I rejected one after another of the blind dates and marriages offered to him by the clan, but in the end, that kid quietly found the one he likes."

Mr. Pei shook his head and smiled wryly, holding a teacup and saluting the red medicine, his voice was very old and bitter: "I know it's shameless to say that... But the old man will have to rely on the old to sell the old one today... Xiaoyao, Pei Ci is my hand I can tell that he really likes you, he has never cared so much about liking someone, can you... can you not give up on him? "

"...At least when he is alive, please stay by his side as a lover."

The red medicine met Mr. Pei's flushed eyes, and his heart felt like a heavy blow—Grandpa Pei's heart was like a mirror.

How could this old man who had sent his grandson to the hospital many times and received critical illness notices from doctors so many times fail to see Pei Ci's physical condition?How could he not see why Pei Ci was in a wheelchair?

Just don't break it.

The grandson, who knew his grandfather's personality, pretended to be nervous and took his sweetheart home for dinner, and the grandfather, who saw through everything, also pretended to be relaxed and set up a table to complement his appearance.Everything looks perfect.

It's just that when it was time to leave, the grandfather who had been worrying about his grandson all his life still couldn't hold back, and begged his grandson's lover not to give up and leave.

This old man, who has been ups and downs in the business world for decades and has accumulated unimaginable wealth for ordinary people, is deeply terrified.He is afraid, he is afraid that his grandson, who has been teased by fate for more than 20 years, will be ruthlessly teased by fate again when his life is coming to an end, lying on the hospital bed, he will have to taste the pain of being abandoned by the person he loves. ... If you really come to that step, no matter how stubborn and unyielding your life will be, it will completely wither.

Mr. Pei took out a black card from his pocket, and gently pushed it in front of Hong Yao: "...It's not that I don't trust the relationship between you, it's just that Pei Ci's situation is really... It's human nature to stop losses in time—" —”

"Grandpa Pei, you read Fang Chong's Weibo, you should know the place where Pei Ci and I met for the first time." Hong Yao pushed back the black card that had been handed in front of him, then took out a piece of facial tissue and held it in his hand I folded the paper carefully, talking while folding the paper, "I run a incense and candle shop, although I can't compare with those professional masters, but my eyes are not bad... The first time we met, I took Pei Ci's order, It was agreed at the time that within three months, I would make three shrouds for him."

Hong Yao is used to paper making, her fingers are nimble and nimble, and she folded the soft tissue paper out of its shape in a short while. It was a vivid white fish with the tip of its tail slightly upturned.

"Now that the three-month period has come, I don't want to do this business for a long time..."

Hong Yao smiled reassuringly at Mr. Pei, then dipped her finger in tea to touch the eyes of the white fish.

His tone was calm but firm: "Grandpa Pei, don't worry, no matter what, I will never give up on Pei Ci. As long as I am by his side for a day, no one will make him suffer, not even fate."

As Hong Yao's voice fell, the white paper fish lying on his palm suddenly swung its head and jumped down. After swimming happily on the dark coffee table for two laps, it came close to Mr. Pei's hand, took its head and gently Hit the old man's finger resting on the coffee table.

Mr. Pei... Mr. Pei has been sluggish.

Hong Yao got up and said with a smile, "I came here suddenly today. I didn't prepare a gift. It's really rude. Grandpa Pei loves fishing, so I'll give this paper fish to Grandpa. You can also take it with you when you go fishing. You can do it on the road. Lanterns can also be used as bait when parked on a fishing rod, so they are barely practical."

Mr. Pei: "..."

He also didn't have time to prepare a gift, his black card was worthless! ! !
