Cultivation in the city

Chapter 30 Reward

Hearing his son's proposal, Grandpa Duan was silent for a moment, but still replied that he would "consider it again".

Duan Tiancheng knew that his parents had been honest all their lives. Although they had the idea of ​​raising children to guard against old age, they were always worried that they would trouble others and did not want to be a burden to their children.

"Dad, a few years ago I told you to move here and live together. You said you were reluctant to part with your neighbors. I think that is true. In addition, your two elders are in good health. The two of you support and take care of each other. I got it, so I didn’t mention it again. Later, the business collapsed, and I didn’t have the conditions to mention it. Now that our family has finally recovered, I don’t have any other extravagant hopes. I just hope that the family can be peaceful and peaceful. Together. How many more years do you and Ma have to live, in a disrespectful way? Don't you want to see us more?"

When it comes to emotion, Dad Duan's voice is a little choked up, Grandpa Duan is expressionless, but from his slightly trembling fingers, he can see the excitement in his heart.

After a while, Grandpa Duan pretended to be relaxed and said: "Okay, I can't stop you from being filial, can I?"

Father Duan grinned happily when he heard this, and Duan Xiaolou and the other juniors were also happy.

Grandpa Duan is in charge of the Duan family, so if grandpa is settled, there is no fear that grandma will object.However, the new house has not been installed for a long time, and the smell needs to be dissipated, so I plan to move again at the end of April.

After the family reunion dinner, the family chatted with the two old people for a while, because Grandpa Duan and Grandma Duan were getting older, and the Duan family didn't have the habit of watching the year, so Dad Duan left with his wife and children.

It was a little cold on the way back, and it was already nine o'clock in the evening when I finally got home.

Mother Duan asked the children to wash up first, and then turn on the TV. Those who are willing to watch the age can continue to watch TV for a while, and those who want to go to sleep can go to bed and rest first.

If possible, what Duan Xiaolou would most like to choose is to stay in his laboratory, but without asking, he knows that his proposal will never get a vote of approval.In the end, he could only nestle into the sofa honestly and watch the Spring Festival Gala with other people.

The skits on TV didn't have much of a laugh, but fortunately, the whole family sat together for fun.

When Duan Xiaolou was thinking about going to bed early and getting up early tomorrow to continue researching on cleaning products, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

Duan Xiaolou took out his mobile phone, and the caller ID read "Honglian" in large characters.

"Hello?" Duan Xiaolou's voice seemed weak.

Chen Yan's narrow laughter came from over there.

"Why, the past year has made you so tired?"

Seeing this, the rest of the Duan family raised their ears to eavesdrop calmly, and Duan Xiaolou shrank his body into the sofa again as if he felt it, as if it would make him feel more secure.

"No, I'm watching the Spring Festival Gala."

"Oh, so it's because I can't do experiments so I don't have energy." Chen Yan said clearly.

"Yeah." Duan Xiaolou admitted generously, "Why do you want to call me? Is the New Year's dinner finished?"

"It's already finished eating. Mr. Chen talked to me about something."

"What's the matter?" Chen Yan would not bring up Mr. Chen to talk to him for no reason, unless it was related to the Duan family.

"He said that a woman named Zhang Wenya asked me to keep a distance from the Duan family. His reply to the other party was to think about it. The subtext is that if I am obedient, he can help the Duan family get through this difficulty. If I am not obedient, he will Not only will it not prevent this from happening, but it may make things worse."

"Oh? Then what do you say?" Duan Xiaolou asked.

"I restrained the idea of ​​burning the Chen family to ashes, and then rejected him." Chen Yan's voice was indifferent, as if the idea of ​​"burning to ashes" was not something he had come up with.

Duan Xiaolou choked for a moment and said, "Murder is against the law."

Chen Yan over there seemed to have heard some funny joke, he laughed twice, and his tone became relaxed.

"I know. I'm just telling you about this so that you can be prepared. In fact, I personally think that the old man will not make a move now. This is not in line with his idea of ​​maximizing his interests. Zhang Wenya didn't beg him, He can't benefit from it. Second, it's not profitable for him to intervene, but it's cheaper for the woman. So he will wait and see what happens, waiting for the right time..."

Duan Xiaolou listened seriously, making the rest of the Duan family even more curious.Finally, Mother Duan couldn't help but asked, "Xiaolou, who is it?"

Duan Xiaolou half-covered the receiver and replied in a low voice: "Chen Yan."

Duan's mother immediately had a slightly disappointed but obviously relieved expression, which made Duan Xiaolou puzzled.

Duan's mother was a little embarrassed by Duan Xiaolou, so she added: "Remember to ask Xiao Yan when he will come, I will prepare a lot of food."

These words are not aimless, Chen Yan will never be polite when it comes to eating every time he comes, and his appetite is far beyond ordinary people, it is really not enough for big guys if he doesn't prepare more.

Duan Xiaolou nodded, and then put all his attention on the phone again.

"My mother just asked when you will come over."

"Come tomorrow, anyway, I have nothing to do at home."

Duan Xiaolou thought of the complicated situation of the Chen family, and agreed with Chen Yan to come to Duan's house.

"Okay, what time will you come over tomorrow? Do I need to prepare breakfast for you?"

It's really not that Duan Xiaolou made an unnecessary move. The main reason is that Chen Yan often runs over early in the morning. Fortunately, breakfast is very simple to make. If it is not possible, there are always quick-frozen buns, dumplings and other things at home. Duan Xiaolou who got up last was probably going to be hungry.

"Be there at nine o'clock tomorrow."

Nine o'clock means breakfast.

"Okay, remember not to come here to buy anything, the family's New Year's goods will be piled up." Duan Xiaolou looked at the crowded corner, and specially warned.

"Well, I don't bring New Year's goods, I'll bring you experimental materials."

Duan Xiaolou immediately showed a big smile when he heard this, and said, "That's more or less the same!"

After hanging up the phone over there, Duan Anran asked: "Brother, what did you just say is similar?"

Duan Xiaolou put the phone away, and replied casually: "Oh, didn't I just tell Chen Yan not to bring New Year's goods, he honestly agreed, so I replied to him 'this is more or less the same'."

Duan Anran pouted, obviously not believing Duan Xiaolou's words.Seeing how his second brother laughed so hard that his mouth was about to burst, how could it be because Brother Yan agreed to such a small request?

But seeing that the second brother didn't want to say more, he didn't continue to ask.

The next day, Chen Yan really came to Duan's house early in the morning.

Mother Duan looked at the clock on the wall. It was not yet nine o'clock. It took about an hour and a half from when Chen Yan woke up and washed up to when he drove here. This is not counting the time lost by eating breakfast at home or other things. .

From this point of view, the child has to get up at 07:30 and go out at [-] o'clock.

Mother Duan thought of this, and felt sympathy for Chen Yan again.

Switch to any normal family, and it’s not in a hurry, who would go to a friend’s house to play early in the morning on New Year’s Eve?

Unknowingly, someone who became Chen Xiaobaicai Yan again was warmly welcomed into the house by Mama Duan.

Today Duan Xiaolou probably wanted to make up for the vacancy in yesterday's experiment, so he got up early early, but Duan's mother didn't ask Chen Yan to go to Xiaolou immediately, but prepared a large plate full of fried dumplings for him to fill his stomach.

The dumplings were made by Duan's mother herself, so the outer skin is flexible and the fillings are full.

The bottom of the dumpling is fried to a golden color, and it tastes extra crispy. Coupled with the filling soup in the dumpling, after a bite, it is so delicious that people almost swallow their tongues.

After eating two large plates of dumplings, Chen Yan went to Duan Xiaolou's "exclusive laboratory" to find him.

Chen Yan unscrewed the door, closed it casually, found a corner and sat down.

During this period, Duan Xiaolou didn't even raise his head.

Anyway, the only one who will come to him at this time is the fire. This guy can always find the most comfortable state for him to enjoy, and he doesn't need him to entertain him at all.Of course, the most important thing is that in front of the other party, I don't have to cover up those things that don't belong to this world at all.

This is a very strange feeling. Two people who are obviously not very close have become different because of a common secret.

When Duan Xiaolou's experiment came to an end, it was almost noon.He put down the semi-finished product in his hand and let out a sigh of satisfaction.

During this period, Chen Yan had already eaten all the cookies that Mama Duan specially made for him, and was leisurely sipping black tea.

"Are you busy this afternoon?" Duan Xiaolou asked.

"Why?" Chen Yan asked puzzled.

"I want to buy some jade in the afternoon. If you are free, come with me." Duan Xiaolou smiled very cutely when he said this.

Although Chen Yan has not been with him for a short time, he also knows that whenever the other party shows this expression, he is definitely asking for something.

"And then?" Going out to buy jade together is a very common thing, if it was just like this, Duan Xiaolou would not have said this to him with such an expression.

"I want to buy a rough stone, and I need you to help me see it."

Duan Xiaolou's eyes were a little erratic.

As Tianhuo, Chen Yan is much more sensitive to aura than Duan Xiaolou is now, so it makes sense for Duan Xiaolou to ask him for help in choosing jade.But Chen Yan instinctively felt that Duan Xiaolou still had something to hide. He examined the other party and asked, "What else?"

Duan Xiaolou looked at Chen Yan, and suddenly understood where he had always felt that the other party had a bad personality.But anyway, in the end, I still want to let the other party know, Duan Xiaolou simply went all out and said: "Later, if you want to say that I will accompany you out. Otherwise, they will definitely accompany us."

What Duan Xiaolou wants to buy is unprocessed rough jadeite that is gambling, and in the eyes of the Duan family, anything related to gambling is not a good thing. Even if Duan Xiaolou can guarantee that he will never lose money, it is absolutely impossible to allow him Go, not to mention that he can't tell others that he will never lose money.

If it wasn't for the current shortage of funds, he couldn't buy enough jade, and he would definitely not choose to use this method.

Chen Yan looked at Duan Xiaolou's bulging cheeks and thought they were cute.

He waved to Duan Xiaolou and said, "Come here."

Duan Xiaolou stepped forward suspiciously, and when he was about to ask him what was the matter, the other party pinched his cheek and said, "This is my reward."

The author has something to say: Chen Yan: I finally touched (pinched) my face!Excited <(* ̄▽ ̄*)/
