especially

Ge Chuyun's action of picking up vegetables suddenly paused, and then smiled again, "Grandma is just a grandma, aren't all grandmas the same all over the world?"

"I've been there." Ji Mingchen bit the tip of his chopsticks and looked at him through the steam.

This son of a bitch didn't like to talk when he was a child, but when he grew up, he also had some problems with his speech. Either he lacked a subject or an object, Ge Chuyun stayed with him for a long time, so he could understand what he was saying.

"You...last time? Zhou Xiaonian didn't take you to my hometown, did he?"

Ji Mingchen nodded.

Seeing the child's serious and serious expression, Ge Chuyun couldn't help but want to laugh, "Why, are you doing household registration checks or political audits?"

"I just... want to see where you lived before."

"Then why don't you just come and ask me?"

"Ask you and you'll just say—" Ji Mingchen put down his chopsticks as soon as he heard it, and in an instant, he looked like a ghost again, raising his eyebrows at Ge Chuyun with a condescending expression, "None of your business!"

"Kids don't care about adults' affairs!"

"Write your homework!"

"..." Ge Chuyun shut up for a while when he heard the words, but soon began to deny it again, "Nonsense, when did I treat you so badly?"

Ji Mingchen stared at him with a serious expression on his face.

"Hey," he sighed under the staring gaze, "because it's all old stuff, so it's okay not to mention it. But she's really... she's very kind, and she's very kind to me, but she's not going to die. good."

"My grandma was originally dumb, but after she got married, she was beaten deaf by her man, and she became a deaf-mute. Later, her man and eldest son were beaten to death by the underworld, and my mother ran to Tokyo again. Grandma couldn't live there alone, so she was sent to the local orphanage by her neighbors, and she was not sent back until my mother and I went to go."

"In the beginning, I didn't have much communication with her. My mother went to Tokyo a few days after returning home, leaving me and my grandmother in my hometown. The high school I went to had poor conditions and no cafeteria. My classmates brought rice from home. I also brought it at first and made it myself, but I only knew how to make scrambled eggs with persimmons, which was also convenient. I just poured it on the rice and ate it. In the end, my classmates said that I was eating pig food. It was only then that I noticed that what they carried were all boxy boxes, layered on top of each other, and they were nicely arranged."

"High school students can't help saving face. It may not seem like a big deal now, but it was really a big deal at the time."

"Later, my grandma, I don't know how she knew, every morning before going out, there is a packed lunch box at the entrance, and there is a clean school uniform every Monday, and a lot of tomatoes will be planted in the field in spring , put it in the well during the autumn harvest, it will be very sweet to eat. I have lived with her for more than a year. Before I learned sign language, she passed away. She may be used to taking care of others, or it may be for me Intergenerational relative, I don’t know, but she is indeed the best one among all my relatives, and I am very grateful to her.”

Ji Mingchen could feel that he was trying his best to speak calmly and describe the picture very warmly, but he also knew that the decision was not an easy memory.

He didn't know whether the beautiful and sweet persimmon flowers could really bloom in the village covered with yellow sand 20 years ago, as Ge Chuyun said.

"If you want, next year's Obon Festival, I will take you to meet her."

Hearing what Ge Chuyun said, he raised his hand and pulled a plate of tender tofu into the bubbling pot.

After that, Ji Mingchen began to look forward to the arrival of August.

It's a pity that he didn't even look forward to the end of the Obon Festival, and the final exams at the end of the year began to be hard on him.

There were many missed classes this semester, and at the end of the semester, when I was making up time, I got very angry. There was a big red and swollen pimple in the center of my nose. On the day when it was the most swollen, Ah Zhou came to him and told him that he had good news.

Ah Zhou was still overjoyed when he saw him, but after holding his head and staring at the pimple on his nose for half a minute, he almost didn't cry.

"Can't you and your face live in harmony?"

After finishing speaking, he canceled the original hot pot restaurant and brought him to the porridge shop.

Ah Zhou felt that Ji Mingchen had a psychedelic life in the second half of this year. Whenever his face was required to appear on important occasions, his face had to add something that shouldn't be there.

Ah Zhou originally wanted to say a few words to him, but when he saw the child eating and concentrating, he endured it until he felt that it was time to stop him from eating, then he took out a document from his bag and said, "You guys go The traffic of the commercial that was filmed for the first time was pretty good, YuGarder plans to sign you as the exclusive endorsement of the youth line."

Ji Mingchen raised his head from his rice bowl to look at him, but his big eyes and long eyelashes are obviously not more noticeable than his red nose.

"The legal affairs department of the contract company has gone through it, and several sensitive issues related to interests have been finalized. The rest mainly depends on your personal wishes. How about it, do you want to sign?"

"Is there a lot of money?"

"..." Ah Zhou couldn't help but froze for a while, "Why are you talking more and more like Ge Chuyun now?"

Ji Mingchen buried his head down again.

Speaking of which, he hadn't seen Ge Chuyun for nearly a week, and he hadn't even told him about his temporary move back to the dormitory for the convenience of exam preparation, and he didn't reply to his WeChat messages. At the end of the year, I basically didn't stay at home, so I probably didn't notice that he was gone.

Looking up again, he suddenly found that Ah Zhou was looking at him meaningfully.

"You two are together, live as long as you live, and you must not learn his bad habits."

At that time, Ji Mingchen felt that the pan-fried yellow croaker he had just eaten was not fragrant.

"By the way, when will your Huniu give birth? I'll give you one for my uncle. My daughter has been raring about cats recently."

"What happened?" Ji Mingchen didn't understand.

"What else can you give birth to? Give birth to a kitten. Didn't you move to Huniu's place because the apartment is too small because you have a kitten and you're afraid you won't be able to move around?"

Ji Mingchen thought that Huniu didn't even have a boyfriend, so where did the cub come from in her stomach, but guessed that it was probably a lie made up by Ge Chuyun.

Fortunately, Ah Zhou patted his thigh, and continued, "Uncle has a wife and children, otherwise, it would be better for you to live with me temporarily than to go to him. He recently broke up with AILY, and the two sides were very torn. Now he As soon as he came, everyone in the company walked around him."

Torn up?

Ji Mingchen wanted to ask more questions, but A Zhou waved his hand suddenly, "Hey! Why am I telling you this? Did you finish the exam the day after tomorrow afternoon? After the exam, think about the contract. In fact, I Personally, I am quite optimistic about this cooperation, Lao Ge plans to release the Especially Youth Line in April next year, YuGarder is one of the few cooperation labels he is currently optimistic about."
