Wearing a book at eighty, being pampered by a disabled boss

"Back then, you said that the owner of the jade pendant would save me from the abyss. Did you just want to lie to me?" Su Shuoci guessed.

"Yes, I am indeed lying to you, but it is not entirely a lie to you, because my brother-in-law is very famous in the imperial capital. He has many friends all over the world and has a wide network of contacts. There must be one who can help you, right?"

The old man said slowly, with a hint of pride in his tone.

After listening to the old man's words, Su Shuoci realized that the old man was just an ordinary old man.

He just wanted to use his jade pendant to help him find his family, but unfortunately his sister had passed away many years ago.

He was not at all angry at being deceived by the old man, because it was indeed this beautiful misunderstanding that made him successful.

By some strange coincidence, that jade pendant was the space of his wife's previous life, which was also a kind of fate.

When Su Shuoci heard that his surname was Ye, he guessed that the old man might be Grandpa Gu's brother-in-law.

So he turned to Xuanxuan and told Xuanxuan, "Xuanxuan, give some snacks to grandpa to eat. He may also be your uncle and grandpa."

"Okay!" Xuanxuan immediately took out a few small cakes from a bag of food brought by his father and handed them to the old man.

"Uncle, you can eat it. My sister and I usually like to eat this cake the most. It was made by my mother."

In fact, Xuanxuan knew that his father made this cake himself, and his father couldn't bear to let his mother work.

But he was embarrassed to tell so much to strangers.

He is also a face-saving person, and his young heart cannot accept having a father who is afraid of his wife.

"Oh, my dear grandson, thank you. I really envy you for having such a good mother."

The old man happily took the cake and bit into half of it in one bite.

"Uncle, please eat slowly, don't choke, drink some water first, there's not enough left!"

Xuanxuan looked at the old man sitting next to him, devouring his food, and felt heartbroken. He felt that this old man was so pitiful.

"Yeah." Although the old man had a mouthful of cake, he still responded with the word "Xuanxuan" inarticulately.

He hadn't eaten such delicious food in decades, and he swallowed it down as soon as he tasted it.

Even if he choked, he stuffed the cake back with dirty hands and swallowed it with bulging eyes.

Little Xuanxuan looked anxious for him, "Uncle, please drink some water and eat some fruit later."

Xuanxuan said and took out another red Fuji apple and handed it to the old man, fearing that the old man would choke to death on the cake.

"Okay, okay!" The old man finally stopped talking after eating five more cakes in a row.

He then gnawed on the apple again, making a crackling sound, as if he was chewing on some delicacy.

Su Shuoci looked at the old man in the back seat, who seemed to have been hungry for eight hundred years.

He shook his head helplessly, his heart filled with sympathy and compassion... Various complex feelings surged into Su Shuoci's heart.

He had never been so embarrassed in his most miserable time. He saw his son looking up at him from the rearview mirror.

The father and son looked at each other, and Su Shuo gave his son an apologetic look, as if to say that he had wronged his son.

Xiao Xuanxuan smiled sensibly and gave his father a look in return: "I won't dislike people no matter how slovenly they are, even if they are sloppy."

Su Shuoci felt even more sour in his heart. His son really grew smarter and more considerate as he grew older.

It is enough that he has loved one person desperately in his life!

And that person helped him give birth to three ice-snow and smart children, which was enough for him at this time.

As the saying goes, there are many couples who go their separate ways when disaster strikes, but there are very few who share weal and woe.

And among these few couples who can share weal and woe, even those who can share weal and woe can do so. But once the adversity is over, there will always be big irreconcilable problems caused by some small conflicts.

We quarreled, blamed each other, and complained to each other. You said that I had delayed your future, and I said that you had delayed my youth.

The couple is no longer an intimate lover, but has become a life-and-death enemy.

When the marriage comes to an end, all that is left is full of resentment and criticism.

No matter which side of the couple it is, there is no way to maintain a good relationship between the couple.

It will only get more tiring and harder as time goes by, and in the end both parties will go their separate ways due to emotional breakdown.

The poor and humble couple have nothing but sorrow, so there is no common ground.

For any couple who share weal and woe, one party must have to pay more to be able to share weal and woe.

Then the party who paid more will start to care about gains and losses, and start to feel that he has paid a lot.

Therefore, he thinks that the party in trouble has delayed his future and feels that the other party owes him.

The beneficiary party will be unhappy under the pressure given by the other party, unable to accept it, and unable to face it. In the end, they will blame each other and the two will fall out.

There must be someone in this world who will change after experiencing prosperity and suffering, but that person will definitely not be him and her.

His love for her was true, pure and impeccable, and so was she.

Su Shuoci was thinking about his wife while driving, so he glanced at his son in the rearview mirror.

The father and son occasionally communicated with their eyes, but never communicated with words. They only heard the sound of the old man eating along the way.

Xuanxuan also really admires this sloppy uncle, he is really good at eating.

And he didn't spit out the skin whether he was eating apples or grapes.

He misses his cute sister at home. When eating apples, he must cut them into small pieces and eat them with a toothpick.

The car finally arrived at its destination, at the door of the Su family's villa.

After Su Shuoci parked the car, Xuanxuan opened the door himself and wanted to help his uncle and grandpa get out of the car.

"Xuanxuan, you get out of the car first, and dad can help me." Su Shuoci said gently.

"Thank you, Dad." After Xiao Xuanxuan said this, he got out of the car obediently.

"Second brother, second brother, you are back. Mom and eldest brother are cooking." Su Su ran out with short legs when she heard the sound of the car.

"Dad, who is he?" Su Su smelled a sour smell and looked up to see her father supporting a sloppy old man.

Su Shuoci saw his beautiful daughter running towards him. He usually likes his daughter to throw herself into his arms.

At this time, he quickly stopped him: "My dear, why did you run out? This is your great-uncle. Do you want to move away? He hasn't taken a bath in about a hundred years."

"Dad is not afraid of getting dirty, and Su Su is not afraid of getting dirty either. I will also help you help your uncle and grandpa." Su Su said grandly.

At worst, she would take a shower as soon as she entered the house. Her second brother had been sitting with his sloppy uncle for so long, so she couldn't be too timid.

So Su Su, who was dressed like a princess, also pulled the old man's sleeve and walked into the house together.

When Su Shuoci helped Mr. Ye walk into the house, he met his wife coming out of the kitchen.

Gu Jiaojiao was wearing loose and comfortable home clothes. She was stunned when she saw Su Shuoci supporting an old man, "Shuoci, who is he?"
