migratory birds return to the forest

Xu Fei didn't look serious in his clothes. After taking a shower in the morning, he only put on a shirt casually. The first few buttons of the shirt were undone. The clothes hung loosely on his body, tying his collarbone and chest. The skin of the front is exposed.

Lin Min's gaze stayed on Xu Fei's neckline for a moment, and he replied, "Morning."

After speaking, he went straight back to his room.

Seeing Lin Min's back, Xu Fei felt itchy inexplicably.

Xu Fei hung up here early in the morning, purely because he wanted to see Lin Min for the first time, but now, he was not satisfied with just seeing Lin Min, he followed Lin Min after he changed his clothes and left the room went to the kitchen.

When he arrived in the kitchen, he realized that Lin Min seemed to have woken up earlier than he had imagined. The porridge in the kitchen had been cooking for an unknown amount of time, and it had become sweet and soft now.

The steamed buns have also been steamed, and the hot air from the steaming exudes bursts of fragrance.

"It smells so good." Xu Fei praised.

Lin Min seemed to be accustomed to him going in and out of the kitchen, and now he only took one look at him, and then reached out and took off the lid of the pot.

Xu Fei was afraid that he would be scalded by the heat, so he said, "I'll help you."

Lin Min was not polite to him this time, he put the pot lid on one side, "Help me bring the buns to the dining table."

"Okay." Xu Fei reached out to get the steamer.

Lin Min grabbed his hand directly, stopped his movement, and took a pair of heat-insulated gloves for him.

Perhaps because he had just touched kitchen utensils, the temperature in Lin Min's hands was rather high, and he felt warm.

However, as soon as Lin Min touched the point, Lin Min withdrew his hand before Xu Fei had time to feel it.

Xu Fei lightly touched the place that was just held by Lin Min with his fingers, and tilted his head, "When do you usually wake up in the morning? I'll go to morning exercises with you..."

"Go out at six, can you get up?"

Xu Fei smiled, "Yes, call me before going out tomorrow."

"Row."

It is impossible for people who have been out in the wild for a long time not to exercise. After all, the body is the first prerequisite and basic guarantee for safety.

However, Xu Fei usually starts to train intensively when he is preparing to travel. During the holidays, he is relatively lazy, and sometimes he only moves his body for a few days.

Seeing Lin Minchen practicing now, the lazy skin on his body wants to loosen, and men are also very charming when exercising. Lin Min is quiet most of the time, and he really wants to see Lin Min move. look.

Xu Fei put on his gloves according to Lin Min's instructions, and took the drawer of buns to the main room.

With porridge, side dishes and steamed stuffed buns, Xu Fei was very satisfied after a meal.

After a few meals, he had a thorough understanding of Lin Min's cooking skills. He had to say that Lin Min's cooking skills were amazing. They all said that to conquer a man, one must first conquer his stomach. Xu Fei felt that he should be attracted by the man's beauty first. The color is conquered, and then the stomach is conquered again.

Thinking of this, Xu Fei couldn't help but want to laugh.

That day, Xu Fei still didn't go to the barber shop with Lin Min. After Lin Min left, Xu Fei helped Lin Zhengze move out the wicker chair, and then sat with him in the yard to bask in the sun.

The orange cat I had seen before reappeared in the yard now, and it rubbed against Lin Zhengze's feet in a familiar way.

Lin Zhengze took out the cat food bowl that he had prepared early in the morning and handed it in front of it, and it buried itself in eating.

Xu Fei smiled and asked, "Is this yours?"

"No, it's the cat next door. It often wanders around here. After feeding it a few times, it becomes familiar with it. It comes here from time to time."

The cat ate for a while, and after the cat food was finished, it jumped onto Lin Zhengze's lap and squatted down.

Lin Zhengze's hand landed on the cat's body, stroking it up and down.

The cat was obviously comfortable being petted and began to purr.

Xu Fei stretched out his hand to touch it, and saw its half-closed eyes slightly widen. After looking at Xu Fei for a while, seeing that he seemed to be harmless, he closed his eyes again.

After a while, it lay down with its eyes closed, apparently planning to sleep on Lin Zhengze's lap.

Xu Fei looked at it from the side and couldn't help laughing. This cat really knows how to act like a baby, wants to eat, jumps on the knee after eating, needs to be petted, and goes to sleep when petted. .

Lin Zhengze seemed to like cats. Elderly people generally like cats, cats and dogs. After all, they are usually alone at home without a companion. Having a pet is also a sustenance.

Xu Fei turned his head and asked, "You don't have a cat or a dog yourself?"

Lin Zhengze shook his head, "I won't raise it anymore, I don't have so much effort to take care of it. I raised it, and in the end it was Amin who took care of it. He is usually busy, so don't make trouble for him."

Xu Fei has been following Lin Min during this time, knowing that Lin Min is indeed very busy, and also knowing that Lin Zhengze is actually feeling sorry for Lin Min, trying his best not to cause trouble to him, even if he stopped growing flowers and plants in the yard before The truth, but he always felt that there was something wrong with the relationship between the grandpa and grandson...

It's like Lin Min told him that Lin Zhengze doesn't like to be noisy. Judging from the situation in the past two days, Lin Zhengze is cheerful and talkative. When he took the initiative to chat with him, the old man always showed his liking, and the whole chat process was also very happy. Obviously not a person who is afraid of noise.

Moreover, people are group animals after all, and Lin Zhengze is alone at home for a long time, so it is inevitable to be afraid of loneliness.

Lin Zhengze likes flowers and plants, but he didn't keep them after his wife passed away. He likes cats, but he didn't keep them either. This is all to avoid trouble for Lin Min. So he reduced his social interaction, is it also because he doesn't want to let others What is Lin Min worried about?

After all, Lin Zhengze was ill and had no one to accompany him when going out for activities, which was indeed worrying.

Lin Zhengze knows how to do things properly, and Xu Fei has already felt this from the previous chat, but he is like this...is he happy?

Lin Zhengze seemed a little too unwilling to cause trouble for Lin Min, and didn't want to burden him.

Although he understood Lin Zhengze, he always felt that this was not the most suitable way for grandparents and grandchildren to get along.

As for Lin Min, judging from Lin Min's dedication to Lin Zhengze's care, he has already done his best. He is working hard to make money, providing Lin Zhengze with a stable life and sound protection, and is also working hard to take care of his food. living.

The grandpa and grandson are clearly trying their best to treat each other well, but why does the relationship between the two seem so tiring?

Xu Fei pondered for a moment, then asked, "Grandpa, have you ever thought about finding a nanny?"

Lin Zhengze shook his head slightly, "I tried it before, but I feel that there is a stranger in the family, and I feel a little uncomfortable. Mainly, there are only two men in the family, Lin Min and me, plus a nanny, and many things feel inconvenient... "

Lin Zhengze saved some money, it's not that he never thought about hiring a nanny, so that Lin Min wouldn't have to worry too much about him, and in this way, cleaning, cooking, and laundry would all be done by someone, so Lin Min could relax A lot, after returning from the store, I don't have to worry about these chores.

But the nanny wife I hired at that time disappeared a few years ago, the lonely man and the widow lived together for a long time, and there were gossips outside.

Moreover, the nanny was not very dedicated in her work, and he was in poor health during that time. The nanny's attitude towards him was okay at the beginning, but after a while, her attitude towards him became less so.

She also has some petty theft behaviors, such as lying about the price or catty when buying vegetables, and putting part of the money in her pocket, etc. The amount involved is not large, so it is not enough to call the police, but it just makes people feel uncomfortable.

Later, Lin Min found out that the nanny and Lin Zhengze had a bad manner of talking, and Lin Zhengze ordered her to do things and then fired her directly, settled the bill and let her go.

Lin Min also said after that that if he wanted, he would find another babysitter for him, but finding a babysitter is like luck, getting along with strangers always takes time, who knows what will happen next? Can the nanny be what you want?

If inviting a stranger to come to the door makes both him and Lin Min feel uncomfortable, but at the same time does not do well, then it is better not to invite, at least try to be quiet.

After that, the lives of the two returned to the previous calm, which was not bad at all, but once he was dizzy and fainted in the yard while sweeping the floor. After that, Lin Min worried about his body, like sweeping the floor, doing things, etc. He took all these things into his own hands, and didn't let him do anything anymore, for fear that what happened before would happen again.

Lin Zhengze is quite old, and his health is not good. There are not many things he can do for the younger generation. It is rare to try not to let the younger generation worry about it. Therefore, he followed Lin Min's wishes and made him feel at ease. , and at the same time try not to cause trouble to Lin Min.

For the next two years, the two of them lived together together.

After listening to Lin Zhengze's words, Xu Fei thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, I thought about what you said. If it is inconvenient to hire a female nanny, you can hire a male. The nanny last time was of bad character. Duan, this time, find someone who knows the basics and has a trustworthy character, wouldn't it be good?"

Lin Zhengze said with a smile: "There are a few big men who are nannies! Besides, how can you find such a suitable person easily?"

Xu Fei smiled, "I can find it. I have friends who know this field. If you think it's okay, I can ask for it for you?"

Lin Zhengze thought about it, but didn't answer immediately.

"If you have a nanny, you will have someone to accompany you. Brother Lin can rest assured when you are in the store, and someone will clean and cook. It will save trouble for Brother Lin when you come back at night. You can also take care of some flowers, plants and pets." , don’t worry about causing trouble to Brother Lin.”

What Xu Fei said made Lin Zhengze a little moved, mainly because he also felt that Lin Min's burden was too heavy now.

Lin Min and Xu Fei are obviously about the same age, Xu Fei does whatever he thinks of, he is reckless and flamboyant, he still looks like a young man, but Lin Min has no youthful look at all.

It's all because of him, and it's all because the burden on Lin Min is too heavy...

There is not much he can do, if he can lighten the burden on Lin Min, let him be free and happy, let him not have to worry about him all the time, don't have to be tied here by him and dare not move...

"Will it be too much trouble for you?" Lin Zhengze asked.

After all, Xu Fei just said yesterday that he would help him decorate the yard, and today he said he would ask the nanny for him. Xu Fei has only been here for a few days. He and Lin Min have not known each other for a long time. Lin Zhengze feels that he is always asked to help. Some are unreasonable.

Xu Fei smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just a question."

"I'll ask Ah Min about this when he comes back. If it's suitable, I might really need your help then."

For the matter of hiring a nanny, I really want to hire a nanny who is satisfactory in all aspects. I am afraid it will not be that easy. Let alone the trouble, the person hired in the end may not be reliable. Instead of this, if Xu Fei really has a suitable one People, it's better to invite them directly.

"It's okay, just say what you need."

Lin Zhengze said with emotion: "Amin is lucky to have a friend like you."

Although they hadn't known each other for long, he could tell that Xu Fei cared about Lin Min very much.

Lin Min seldom gets close to people. It is great to have a friend like Xu Fei, especially Xu Fei is extroverted and lively. Lin Min's temperament is too quiet. He should also get in touch with people like Xu Fei more. It would be great if I could be influenced by him a little bit and relax a little more.

Xu Fei laughed after hearing Lin Zhengze's words.

Seeing Xu Fei smiling happily, Lin Zhengze couldn't help asking, "What are you laughing at?"

Xu Fei smiled and said, "I want to tell Brother Lin about this."

Lin Zhengze couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, the heart of a child.

The two chatted for a while, and Xu Fei naturally brought up the topic of Lin Min's childhood. When Xu Fei heard that there was a photo album of Lin Min's childhood at home, he immediately became interested and asked Lin Zhengze to show it to him.

In the early days, photography technology was not yet popular, and there were relatively few early photos, only Lin Min's [-]-day photo and a family photo of Lin Min's first birthday.

Xu Fei picked up Lin Min's [-]-day photo and looked at it. When he was a child, Lin Min couldn't see his current appearance at all. On the contrary, he was fat, with small hands, feet, and face, and he was fleshy everywhere.

When Lin Min was one year old, he looked a little thinner, but he was still fleshy, but his eyes were already bright, energetic, and he looked smart.

Lin Zhengze was still young at that time, in his fifties by the looks of him, he was in good spirits, with only a few gray hairs scattered on his head.

Grandma Lin Min, who was standing on the other side, was slightly fatter, with a smile on her face, and she looked very friendly.

The one holding Lin Min in the middle is his mother.

Lin Min's mother is beautiful, almost a standard beauty, with a gentle smile on her face, her head gently leaning towards her husband beside her.

And Lin Min's father is tall and handsome, he stretched his arms around his wife's shoulders, and looked a little restrained towards the camera, only the corners of his mouth were raised slightly, it could be seen that he was in a good mood.

Looking at Lin Min's parents, Xu Fei already understood the source of his appearance and personality.

Lin Zhengze's gaze also fell on the photo, and he sighed and turned to the next page.

The following photos are of Lin Min at the age of five or six. At this time, Lin Min can no longer see the fleshy feeling of his infancy. He is exquisitely carved like a small porcelain doll, which makes people feel refreshed. joy.

The following are some photos of his elementary school. The background of the photos should be that the family went out to play together. At this time, Lin Min had a clean and gentle smile on his face, clear eyes, and a bit of youthful and immature peculiar to teenagers. .

There are photos of himself alone in the photos, as well as photos of him and his family. This is a pure and beautiful teenage time.

The photo of Lin Min in high school shows him standing on the stage in his school uniform, holding a certificate in his hand.

In high school, Lin Min seemed as if his whole body had been stretched. He became tall and slender. His brows and eyes had grown, which was similar to his current appearance. He was so handsome that he attracted people's attention.

But it was obviously a happy moment, but there was no smile on his face, he just looked at the camera blankly.

Compared with the previous photo, it seems that what disappeared on him is not only the unique greenness of teenagers, but also the carefree happiness of his youth.

Lin Zhengze took a look at the photo, and sighed softly after a while, "This is the first time he won an award after his parents passed away. At that time, I wanted to take a photo of him and burn it for his parents to see. They rest assured that he is fine, strong, and still excellent..."

There are really few photos of Lin Min. After that, there is only one photo left after the college entrance examination. In the photo, Lin Min is wearing a white T-shirt and jeans, showing a faint smile at the camera.

That smile is already the one that occasionally appears on Lin Min's face now.

Lin Zhengze sighed, "He had good academic performance since he was a child, and he also did well in the college entrance examination. He went to a good school, but unfortunately something happened later, and I was not in good health. He just came back."

Xu Fei looked at this photo, and unconsciously returned to the photo of Lin Min in high school. He and Lin Min in the photo looked at each other, and after a while he said, "Grandpa, I'm going to the store for a while. trip."

Lin Zhengze was immersed in the thoughts of the past, and he still hadn't recovered. After a while, he replied: "Okay, let's go."

When Xu Fei arrived at the barber shop, there were not many people in the shop. He didn't see Lin Min on the first floor, so he asked Li Ze, "Is Brother Lin up there?"

"Well, it's up there."

There is no one on the second floor.

Xu Fei had noticed the cubicle when he was washing his hair before, but he hadn't seen anyone coming in and out, and he hadn't gone in. Now he went up to the second floor and saw no one, so he knocked on the door of the cubicle.

Soon the door was opened from the inside.

Lin Min stood at the door, looking at him with narrowed eyes.

Xu Fei stepped forward and hugged him.
