"On the coffee table."

Fu Changlin said, and walked into the living room.

"You put it here when you watched the morning news."

"right!"

The old man slapped his thigh and followed.

"I said why can't I find it."

"..."

Zuo Nian was stunned for a long time, only to realize that the old man didn't seem to care about his existence at all, as if Fu Changlin was still holding the kitten.

Including Fu Changlin himself, he even changed hands when he walked into the living room, hugged him with one hand, and walked back to the dining room with chili sauce.

No, I should be alone now...

Why do I feel like something...

But the depressed Zuo Nian had no right to speak, and Fu Changlin, who returned to the dining room, put him on the seat and carefully adjusted the position of the seat for him.

As soon as Zuo Nian breathed a sigh of relief, he felt Fu Changlin behind him brush his hair. The itchy feeling made him shrink his head and look back at him suspiciously.

Fu Changlin plucked the strands of hair that had fallen to Zuo Nian's shoulders.

"Tie it up for you, it's not convenient to eat like this."

"okay."

Zuo Nian blew the hair in front of him, and it's better to cut it in two days.

"Come on, little Zuo, here is your meal, it's all natural and without additives, so feel free to eat."

The old man called the little raccoon who came over to the side, happily fed the meal, and got the little kitty's affectionate coquettish.

Zuo Nian looked at the raccoon cat, suddenly feeling a little melancholy.

It's good to be a human being, but in the future, you can no longer fight with cats. If you can't act like a baby, it means that you can no longer eat the tofu from his professor casually.

Zuo Nian tutted his head and shook his head, missing a hundred million...

"Don't shake around."

Fu Changlin, who was tinkering with his hair, squeezed Zuo Nian's face as a warning.

"The newly tied hair is loose."

"Ow."

Zuo Nian rubbed his pinched cheeks and let out a hey laugh.

Hey, there are benefits to being a man, anyway, no matter what, his professor will still take care of him!

Then, Zuo Nian, who was having fun, met Mr. Fu's expression of surprise at first, and then he couldn't help laughing.

Zuo Nian touched his face inexplicably.

Did I get something on my face?

"All right."

Fu Changlin looked at his work with satisfaction, went into the room and took out a mirror.

"How about it?"

When Zuo Nian saw his face in the mirror, he petrified.

He understands the reason why he has to tie his hair up because it is inconvenient to eat.

But why tie into a double ponytail? !

How stupid!

But Fu Changlin obviously doesn't think so. After all, Zuo Nian is not only white, but also has a small frame. Because of his thinness, his eyes look extra large. A pair of ponytails is not at all inconsistent, but it looks even cuter.

Seeing Zuo Nian staring at him with resentment and aggrievedness, Fu Changlin didn't feel guilty at all.

"Your hair is too broken, if you only tie one hair, it will fall to the front in a short time. This is just right, and it is convenient for eating."

Zuo Nian looked suspiciously at old man Fu again, the old man still had that kind and happy smiling face, he didn't mean to make fun of him, and could only accept Fu Changlin's "all for food".

The lunch made by Mr. Fu was very rich, not only salt and pepper pork ribs, but also the bacon and sausage that Zuo Nian had been thinking about since he was a cat.The culinary skills taught by him are probably inherited from Mr. Fu, so it's delicious and it's over!

If Zuo Nian still had a tail, it must have started to swing wildly by now.

Seeing that Zuo Nian was eating with gusto, Old Man Fu's eyes were bent, and he kept holding dishes for him, wishing he could finish the whole table.It wasn't until Zuo Nian hiccupped and collapsed on the seat that he finally let him go.

"Is it tasty?"

Seeing Mr. Fu leave the dining table, Fu Changlin asked with a chuckle.

"It's delicious! It's super delicious! It's a hundred times better than the food in our school cafeteria!"

Zuo Nian answered without hesitation.

"Compared to what I did?"

Fu Changlin asked again.

Zuo Nian cast a glance at him, and replied in a very low voice.

"Grandpa cooks delicious food."

Fu Changlin put down the chopsticks, turned around with no expression on his head, and looked at Zuo Nian seriously.

Zuo Nian was almost frightened by the accusation in his eyes, the braised pork that had just been brought to his mouth, so he couldn't help leaning back with puffed cheeks.

"I mean... your cooking is delicious too! Really! Even compared with grandpa, it may still be..."

Fu Changlin still looked at him expressionlessly.

Zuo Nian quickly swallowed the meat in his mouth.

"But the tomato beef brisket you made is super invincible and the best! It's so delicious even without seasoning, if you season it properly..."

Hearing Zuo Nian's voice getting smaller and smaller, Fu Changlin raised his eyebrows.

"Huh? What if?"

It's getting darker and darker...

Zuo Nian bit his chopsticks and glanced at the professor, then quickly answered.

"If only I could eat it every day!"

Fu Changlin was obviously satisfied with this answer.

Originally, it was just to amuse the children, but now that he got an answer that exceeded expectations, Fu Changlin raised his lips in a very good mood, and stretched out his hand to pinch Zuo Nian's face.

"Okay, I will make it for you to eat every day from now on."

Seeing Fu Changlin's smile, Zuo Nian rubbed his face and subconsciously laughed.

"Okay!"

"Here, take this with you."

The old man returned to the dining room and handed him the jade pendant that originally belonged to Zuo Nian.

"I've already purified it, don't worry take it with you."

"Thank you grandpa."

Seeing his own jade pendant, Zuo Nian quickly took it.

The jade pendant exudes a radiant light, soft and transparent.

Although it seems not good to casually ask about the elders, Zuo Nian has always been curious about the origin of the two jade pendants and the relationship between the old man and grandma.

Zuo Nian caressed the jade pendant, and hesitantly glanced at Mr. Fu.

Seeing Zuo Nian's hesitation, Fu Changlin, who had been watching him all the time, asked for him.

"Grandpa, Zuo's jade pendant and the one you gave me are carved out of the same stone?"

The old man was not too surprised that they wanted to know about it, and replied.

"Yeah, Xiangqin and I picked up that rough stone together."

"My grandma?"

Although he had already guessed that the old man and his grandma might know each other, Zuo Nian couldn't help but feel rippling in his heart when he heard grandma's name.

After all, grandma is the whole meaning of home to him.

"Well, your grandma."

The old man smiled, looked at the jade pendant in Zuo Nian's hand, with some pride in his nostalgic eyes.

"In our time, with your grandma's level of education, she was a rare intellectual who looked like a fairy. After arriving in our small mountain village, she became a celebrity within a day. At that time, the yin and yang we engaged in People who are skilled in art are actually not favored, but your grandma is interested in these things, and she always likes to ask some weird questions. If you say she believes in these things, I think she is more like listening to stories. .”

The old man spoke softly.

The little girl with two braids and a floral shirt seems to be still in front of her eyes, standing in a golden rice field, with sliver of sunlight shining between her crooked eyebrows and eyes.

"Sometimes the farm work is finished early, or when there is a rest day, we will go for a walk by the nearby mountain forest stream. She tells me knowledge and literacy, and I tell her the stories of those mountain ghosts. That piece The original stone was picked up at that time."

The old man said and laughed.

"I said at the time that it was a piece of jade, but she didn't believe it. She said it was an ordinary stone, and we made a bet. Later, we took it back, and the people in the town knocked it open. It turned out that it was not only jade. , It’s still a pretty good material, they originally wanted to exchange food stamps for jade, but Xiangqin didn’t agree, took the jade and ran away, and I chased after it for a long time.”

"I saw that Xiangqin liked it. Originally, I wanted to ask someone to help me carve a pattern, but Xiangqin didn't agree. Then I grinded it at home for a long time until..."

The old man paused, with a lonely and helpless smile.

"Until Xiangqin was taken away, I gave this piece to her."

On the day her father forcibly took her away, the girl with twisted braids stood by the stream she frequented for a long time, until the person she cared about the most came to her panting, and handed the polished jade to her, and finally Biting his lips and weeping.

They once made a bet that if that stone was jade, she would stay here all her life, by his side.

When he grinds the jade into a jade pendant, it will be the three letters and six rituals between him and her.

But in the end.

Still can't resist gossip, can't escape the fetters of parents.

Zuo Nian and Fu Changlin looked at each other silently, but neither made a sound.

"So I'm very happy to meet you, you and Xiangqin look very similar."

The old man didn't feel sad for too long, he patted Zuo Nian's head and said with a smile.

"I like your grandma very much. I am very happy to hear you say that she is doing well."

Fu Changlin looked at his grandfather and grandson with red eye circles.

He has always known that his grandfather has someone he likes very much, and because of this, he never married a wife in his life.Fu Changlin's father was only a child that Mr. Fu took the initiative to adopt because he looked pitiful when he was young.

"Before, grandma said a word to me."

Recalling what grandma had said to him back then, Zuo Nian told the old man.

"Grandma said that she has seen many beautiful places and met many people she likes along the way, but in the end she will still miss the original road, and the road she chose the most is the one she chose at the beginning."
