meow if you are happy

Chapter 77 Grandpa
Grandpa was brewing Gongfu tea, the tea leaves were tumbling, and the fragrance of the tea was overflowing. He handed the Ru Kiln teacup to Xiaoxiu, and said with a smile, "Don't be too cautious, just treat this place as your own home."

Xiao Xiu glanced at Chi Yan, who had a gloomy face, "Then, can I go to the yard to play with the cat?"

Grandpa smiled and said, "Of course."

Xiao Xiu asked Xiang Chi Yan, "Then, shall I go?"

"Ah."

Xiao Xiu put down his tea cup, quickly pounced on the cats, and quickly became involved with them.

Grandpa took a sip of tea, looked at Xiaoxiu's happy back as he held the kitten in circles, and said, "She really listens to you."

"Grandpa...you misunderstood, she is my shop assistant. Because...because her parents and relatives are abroad, I saw that she was alone here without anyone, so I brought her back..."

"So when are you going to get married?"

——Listen carefully, grandpa! !
"I see how nice the girl is, and how those kittens like her."

Chi Yan stroked his forehead, so it was because of the cat...

Grandpa stroked the big orange in his arms and said, "Don't underestimate them. People have seven sides, and it's hard to distinguish between good and evil. They are the best at distinguishing between them."

"Oh, yes.

"Anyway, I still hope that you will start a family soon and have someone who knows your well-being and is considerate of you. I feel relieved."

Chi Yan blew on the tea in the bowl, nodded his head, "Okay."

Then, he raised his head and found his grandfather looking at him intently, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

Grandpa's eyes narrowed when he smiled. Grandpa and grandson have been together for a long time, and their expressions and behaviors are inexplicably similar. Grandpa also speaks lightly and smiles lightly. He looks very gentle, without Chi Yan's unique Gloomy and indifferent.

"It's nothing, I just feel that A Yan has changed."

"Is there?"

"Yes. She has become more beautiful, which is a sign of good luck."

……grandfather……

Chi Yan walked outside the house and said to Xiao Xiu, who was rubbing the cat's belly while swinging on the swing, "It's cold outside, come in."

"Come on."

Xiao Xiu happily ran in. Grandpa went to take a lunch break. Only Chi Yan and Xiao Xiu were left in the living room. Chi Yan was sitting on the sofa picking vegetables, while Xiao Xiu looked around curiously.

"Wow, this is Chi Yan's father, right? I saw him in your photo album. He was so handsome when he was young."

Chi Yan said 'hmm'.

"Grandpa looked very elegant when he was young. The three of you look really similar. I don't look much like my parents, but my sister is very similar to them."

Xiao Xiu looked at it, and his eyes finally fell on an oil painting hanging on the wall.This painting seems to be a long time old, and the frame has faded. The girl in the painting has slender eyebrows and is wearing a cheongsam from the Republic of China. Her temperament is elegant and cold, as sparse as chrysanthemums, and her eyes seem to contain a ghostly light and shadow. , anyone who looks at her will be sucked in by those eyes.

Her long, black, satin-like hair was simply pulled into a bun with a very ordinary sandalwood hairpin.

Xiao Xiu touched the woman's cheek with trembling hands, and seemed to have forgotten to breathe for a moment.

"Chi Yan... who is she? She is so beautiful..."

Chi Yan also came over, looked at this simple oil painting, and said: "I heard that it was painted by my grandfather's grandfather, but this is not my grandmother. Maybe it was just that my grandfather met such a beautiful woman and on a whim, Just record her natural beauty."

Xiao Xiu counted on his fingers for a long time, "Grandpa's grandfather... is, who..."

Chi Yan smiled helplessly, "I'm afraid this can be regarded as a family heirloom of our Chi family."

Xiao Xiu nodded thoughtfully, still unable to look away from the oil painting.

"If you are free, come and help me pick vegetables. I will make New Year's Eve dinner tonight."

As soon as he heard about the 'New Year's Eve dinner' break, he forgot about the oil painting and skipped over, "I'm here to help too! I also want to make delicious food for grandpa!"

Chi Yan and Xiao Xiu were busy in the kitchen all afternoon. Grandpa sat on the recliner and looked towards the kitchen. He looked at the backs of the two people chatting and laughing, and touched Ah Fu in his arms, as if talking to himself, It’s like saying to Ah Fu, “Not long after, there will be a happy event at home.”

Ah Fu looked at Xiao Xiu with very complicated eyes.

If the cat's revenge is over...

He dared not think about it any longer.

Because there was a break that day, the atmosphere became lively. The three of them gathered around the dinner table, and the Spring Festival Gala was playing on the TV.

Grandpa also seemed to like Xiaoxiu very much, and kept adding vegetables to her bowl, "Seeing that you are skinny, eat more."

Xiao Xiu bit his chopsticks and said with a frown on his face, "But Chi Yan even said he wanted me to lose weight... He didn't even give me dried fish."

"Don't listen to him, listen to grandpa, girls are fatter to be lucky." Then, grandpa glanced at Chi Yan again, "I'm talking about you, what's the matter with only giving people small dried fish?"

Chi Yan quickly interrupted, "Oh, it's a new snack..."

"What's wrong now? People actually like to eat cat food."

"..."

Chi Yan glared at Xiao Xiu and kept putting vegetables into her bowl. This probably meant, eat more and talk less!

While taking a break to eat, he was attracted by the colorful fireworks outside the window, "Wow, it's so beautiful!!"

"After we finish eating, we'll set off fireworks."

"Okay!" Xiao Xiu also picked up some food for grandpa in a decent manner, "Grandpa, I made this! Is it delicious?"

Grandpa smiled from ear to ear, "It's delicious. Of course Xiao Xiu did a good job."

At this moment, Chi Yan finally felt the feeling of 'home'.

After eating, Xiaoxiu hurriedly ran out to set off the fireworks. Chi Yan saw that she was only wearing a sweater, so he picked up her down jacket and wanted to send it to her. The grandfather on the rocking chair looked up at him, "Ah Yan now You are very good at taking care of people."

"..."

Chi Yan's face turned red, but it was also accompanied by bursts of helplessness and bitterness. It was really hard to be a shit shoveler!
Chi Yan lit the flower for Xiaoxiu first, and Xiaoxiu took the flower and turned it around, "Chi Yan! Does it look good!"

"Well, it's pretty." Chi Yan must not have known that his eyes softened when he looked at her bright smile.

"Xiao Xiu, thank you."

Xiao Xiu smiled innocently, "Why are you thanking me? I obviously didn't help you with anything. I didn't even help you fulfill your wish, and I always caused you trouble."

Chi Yan chuckled and shook his head, "Back off, I want to set off fireworks."

The fire trees and silver flowers are closed, and the iron lock of the star bridge is opened.The dark dust goes with the horse, and the bright moon comes with people.

Fireworks bloomed all over the sky like a bustle, lighting up the dark sky. The tails of the fireworks dropped like shooting stars, as if decorating the world into a jade box.

Grandpa walked over with Ah Fu in his arms, looking at the meandering sky.

Xiaoxiu showed Chi Yan the circle of friends on his mobile phone. It was a photo of Qin Mingming on duty and Xu Zihao who was forced to marry by his sisters.

Under the bright night sky, Chi Yan smiled softly.
