Warm man's succulent garden

Chapter 8 The Wayward Old Guo

"Little guy, my old man won't lie to you either. Your orchid is a variant of Tiegusu Xinlan, and its appearance is good. I'll give you 18 yuan for this pot. Do you think it's okay?" Lao Guo said heartbroken. explain.This is all his private money!

"Success! But I don't have a bank card, uncle, can you give me cash?" Zhang Jingye asked a little worriedly.

"Cash? Then I don't have that much for the time being. Do you think it's okay? I'll take you to my house and give you some of it first. You can get the rest tomorrow. Since you know my old Guo's name, you must know it. I This person will never renege on his debts haha!" Guo Zhengyi smiled and touched the top of Zhang Jingye's head.This little guy is quite precocious.

"Okay! In fact, I also sold a pot of orchids a few days ago, and the person who bought the flowers was Uncle Deng Yumin, the president of the Orchid Association of S Province." Zhang Jingye chatted with Lao Guo like an adult while walking, but Lao Guo I'm so happy, this little guy really looks like a little adult!

"Oh! It turns out that you sold Lao Deng's precious panda Ruidie to him!" Mr. Guo suddenly realized, and then looked at the little guy curiously, "You are really lucky, you kid, others may not be able to do it for decades. It's good for you to find a rare wild orchid, and you dug two pots at once!"

"Hey! Mr. Guo, don't say that, isn't it? We are short of money in the orphanage. It's because God sees our children without parents and mothers are pitiful, so he deliberately came to give us money!" Zhang Jing Ye said jokingly.

"What? Are you a child from an orphanage? Are you from Cihui Orphanage?" Mr. Guo was startled. Seeing that this child is so smart and sensible, he thought it was a child from the orphanage who was taught well by the adults at home.

No wonder, otherwise, how could it be so precocious?

Guo Lao looked at Zhang Jingye with some pity and sympathy, and his words were more gentle.

"You said just now that your sister has a tumor, is that your real sister?"

"No, Qingqing was also picked up by the dean's mother from outside. She has been in poor health since she was a child. It is estimated that her biological parents knew that she was ill and deliberately threw her into our orphanage." Zhang Jingye said sadly, " Aunt Gu said that Qingqing needs a lot of money to treat her illness, so I ran out to sell orchids alone! I watched TV and said that the more beautiful the orchid is, the more valuable it is!"

"Hey! Little guy! Come have a glass of water first, and I'll go with you to the hospital to see your sister later." While talking, the two arrived at the gate of the small courtyard where Mr. Guo lives now.

This small courtyard is the old house of the Guo family in S province. Originally, Mr. Guo lived in the dormitory allocated by the unit when he was in power. After retirement, he didn’t want others to gossip, so he simply returned the dormitory to the government. In the house, raising flowers to amuse cats every day is quite interesting.Even if the son and grandson are in the capital, it is rare to come back once a year, and the old couple will inevitably be lonely. Therefore, I like a sensible and polite child like Zhang Jingye very much.

Mr. Guo’s courtyard is a typical Jiangnan small courtyard style, similar to Deng’s, that is, the courtyard is full of various orchids. There is a pomegranate tree in the flower pond on the left side of the yard, a jujube tree on the right side, and a Grape trellis, under the grape trellis is a set of stone tables and benches, a tabby cat is napping on the table, and there is a bird cage hanging on the grape trellis, inside a thrush with beautiful fur, see Mr. Guo When he came back, he jumped up and down in the cage excitedly and screamed non-stop.

"Come on! Eat some watermelon. Give me the orchid. I'll move it under the eaves and let it go slowly." Mr. Guo took the orchid from Zhang Jingye's arms and placed it under the gable next to the grape trellis.

Then he sat down to eat melon and drink tea with Zhang Jingye. After eating, Mr. Guo asked Zhang Jingye to play in the yard by himself. He ran back to the house and took out the private money secretly hidden on the beam of the study.

There is no way, the old woman has already issued an ultimatum, if he dares to buy orchids at home again, she will take all these orchids to the vegetable market and sell them for 100 yuan a pot!

That's why, just now he told Jing Ye to put the orchids under the wall, where the old women think it's dirty, so they usually won't go there.

"Little guy, here is 5 yuan. You can come here to get the rest tomorrow morning. Remember! It must be before 10 o'clock in the morning. Don't come after 10 o'clock, you know?" Lao Guo warned.Old women usually go to the elderly activity room to paint or dance before 10 o'clock, and basically come home to cook after 10 o'clock.

"Well! Thank you uncle, can we go to the hospital now? By the way, where is there a big supermarket nearby? My sister wants to eat a kind of apple candy imported from abroad. We used to have no money and were reluctant to buy it. Now that we have money, I think Buy her a pack." Zhang Jingye blinked at Mr. Guo.

"Haha! Where can I buy it? I know the kind of candy you mentioned. My wife also likes it very much. I still have it at home. I'll bring it for you. See if it's that brand!" Guo Laoyi heard this , I like the boy in front of me even more.

"That's right! It's from this brand! But this apple candy is very expensive. Uncle, I can't ask you for nothing, or you can deduct it from the money I sell flowers!" Zhang Jingye saw the bags that Mr. Guo took out The large package of apple candy, knowing that this pile is at least several hundred, said with some embarrassment.

"Hey! What are you afraid of? Let me tell you, my wife's niece is studying in country y. This kind of candy is sold very cheaply in their locality. Don't go to the supermarket to buy it after you eat it. It's not worth it! My niece will post some more, and your sister will come and pick them up after eating!" For these children living in the orphanage, Guo Lao's steely heart couldn't help but melt.

"That's so embarrassing..." Zhang Jingye was about to refuse, but was silenced by Guo Lao's slap.

"What's so embarrassing?! I think you're lucky. You have to remember Uncle's kindness. If you dig wild orchids with good quality in the future, don't go to Lao Deng again. Bring them to me first." , Don’t worry, you will never lose money on the price!” Guo Lao said with a smile.

"I'm sorry, Lao Deng, anyway, you already have so many precious orchids, and you don't need a pot or two, so let me make it cheaper for me, Lao Guo haha!" Guo Lao said secretly.

"Well! I listen to Uncle! Then let's go to the hospital now!" The two of them took the car from Guo's hometown and went directly to the inpatient department of the People's Hospital.Qingqing will have an operation tomorrow, Zhang Jingye brought her so many apple candies today, just hoping that she can enter the operating room happily.

"Brother Xiaoye, you are here! Who is this old man?" Qingqing asked curiously when she saw Old Guo followed Zhang Jingye into the ward.

"Qingqing, please don't be rude! Call him Uncle Guo!" Zhang Jingye was sweating. In this world, no matter men or women, they don't want to be called old, so he always called Mr. Guo "Uncle".

"Hello, Uncle Guo!" Qingqing, an obedient child, immediately changed her words.

"Hey! Good boy, come here, uncle will give you sweets!" Guo's family has only one little grandson, who is extremely naughty, and he especially likes a cute little girl like Qingqing.

"Ah! It's apple candy! Thank you, Uncle!" Qingqing happily took a large bag of apple candy printed in foreign languages, hugged her and said with a smile.

Outside the door, upon hearing that Mr. Guo was coming, the president and vice presidents of the hospital ran over with trembling legs, and stood at the door of the ward dawdlingly, not daring to go in.

There is no way, Mr. Guo is really well-known in the province of S, and he is jealous of others. A group of white coats stood at the door and thought about it first: nothing major happened in the hospital recently, right?

They glanced at each other to make sure that nothing serious happened (too bad), then they opened the door and walked in under the leadership of the old dean.

"Mr. Guo, long time no see! What brought you here?" The old dean ran up to greet him.

"Old Hua, what do you mean?! Do you want to see me every day in the hospital?" Lao Guo looked at him unkindly.Is it a curse that I can't afford to be seriously ill?

"Hehe~haha! Where, where, you always misheard! No, we are happy to hear that you are here, haha! Are you here for a visit? Who is this little baby?" Dean Hua explained embarrassingly .

"Huh! This is the little granddaughter I just recognized. I heard that she will have surgery tomorrow, so be careful! My granddaughter is about to have an accident, huh!" Guo Lao said and followed behind to be in charge of tomorrow's surgery. The deputy dean's skin tightened, and he suddenly felt that Alexander!

Even Aunt Gu, Zhang Jingye and others who were accompanying them were stunned!

Mr. Guo has been in Province S for more than ten years. The common people here can see him on the news almost every night. Who doesn't know him?Now, when they heard that Mr. Guo had adopted a little girl from an orphanage as his granddaughter, everyone looked at him in surprise.

"What?! My old Guo son didn't live up to it, so he gave birth to a brat for me. I can't support myself, so I recognize a goddaughter?!" Lao Guo was furious.

"Qingqing, hurry up, kowtow to grandpa!" Aunt Gu pulled Zhou Xueqing up from the bed, and kowtowed firmly to Mr. Guo three times.

This is a blessing that no one else can ask for!Qingqing is a blessed child!In the future, Mr. Guo will take care of him, and it will be much easier than other children in the courtyard.

"Haha! The old man didn't bring any gifts today, little girl, grandpa promises you, as long as you listen to the doctor and perform the operation well, grandpa will bring you the biggest doll tomorrow!"

"Well! Qingqing will be obedient. Aunt Gu told me that Brother Xiaoye spent all his wife's money in order to treat Qingqing's illness. Grandpa, what is a wife's money?" Qingqing asked curiously.

"Haha! Girl, don't worry! Grandpa won't let your brother Xiaoye fail to marry a wife!" Mr. Guo stroked Qingqing's soft fine hair pitifully. This little girl has something wrong with her. Lianai's well-behaved appearance makes people feel happy when they see her. Just now he said without hesitation that he would recognize her as his granddaughter. Mr. Guo really wanted such a well-behaved and soft little granddaughter.

Going home at night, Lao Guo told his wife, Grandma Guo, about this matter, and was seriously despised by the female man: You retired and returned your brain to d, right?Isn't that simple?If you want to love this child, even if it is not an adoption relationship, as long as you are in Huaguo, who would dare to bully her?

"As for adoption." The female man rubbed her chin, "I have a good candidate, my cousin, Guo Xuerong, the wife of Professor Deng of the Provincial Agricultural University, you know? The couple are very bored now, and the university professor Status, if you adopt the little girl, it will be better for her future."

Just do what you say, Grandma Guo, the female man, grabbed her mobile phone and called her cousin.
