If you hadn't come, how old would you make me

Chapter 6

Since answering her mother's call last time, Wen Ran chose a Saturday to go to grandpa's house.

It was already November, and the coldness came suddenly. Wen Ran stood outside the red-walled compound, wrapped in his coat, hesitant.

I remember my mother said that when she was young, she didn't know how many people wanted to marry into this door.Who lives in this door, Wen Ke, Mr. Wen.Not to mention anything else, just looking at the military rank, you can tell that you are not an ordinary person.However, all of this is as unfamiliar to Wen Ran as the word "grandpa". She doesn't know much, and she doesn't want to know.

"Sister Ran Ran?"

A pink figure jumped out from inside, Wen Ran raised his head, looked at the person coming, and smiled slightly, "Far away?"

Wen Yuan.The daughter of the uncle and the aunt, she is lively, just like her name, with a bit of boyishness.Occasionally, Wen Ran wondered how there could be such a child in this dreary compound.

He took her arm from a distance: "You've come, my mother received a call from my second aunt early in the morning, and told me to wait for you at home and not to go anywhere." She said with a smile, "Sister Ran Ran, How long has it been since you came, and you don't miss me?"

"I've just started school, so I've been a little busy." He made an excuse at random, "Is grandpa here?"

"Well, grandpa and uncle have been meeting distinguished guests in the study for a while." Wen Yuan had a pretty smile, and there were two small dimples around his mouth, which always made people want to pinch them.

After entering the hall, Qiao Yufen waited there, saw Wen Ran far behind, smiled slowly, with indescribable kindness: "Ran Ran is here? Why are you wearing so little?" Qiao Yufen frowned, "This child doesn't look like a People who grew up in City B and City T don’t know how to add clothes in November, they just want to make your mother worry over there when they get sick, don’t they?” He poured a cup of tea and stuffed it into her hand inside
Wen Ran immediately took it over: "It's okay, Auntie, I'm used to it, I won't be cold."

Qiao Yufen sat down and smiled brightly: "I have been studying in City B for so many years, and I can count the number of times I come to my house on my fingers. Are you so busy studying?"

She took a sip of the hot tea lightly, and gradually felt a little warmth in her palm: "It's okay."

"Then come and play more when you're free. Stay with me, and stay with me far away." Qiao Yufen said with satisfaction, and put the embroidery she was holding aside, "Your uncle doesn't allow me to go to work, I'm just hanging out at home." I really have nothing to do, let’s embroider, my eyes are not working, I’m presbyopic.”

Wen Ran looked at the semi-finished product thrown on the sofa, and felt a slight twitch in his heart.Is it different? When the eldest aunt is idle, her mother is busy working in T City, supporting her family and raising her.Suddenly hot tea touched her finger, she woke up, nodded, and said yes in a low voice.

After finally waiting for Qiao Yufen to finish speaking, Wen Yuan dragged her into her room. The room was full of blue. Seeing her slightly bent her eyes, she suddenly remembered something. She looked at Wen Yuan who was lying on the bed: " Far away, I called your second aunt some time ago, and she said that you fell in love early, is there such a thing?"

Wen Yuan rubbed his forehead with some headaches: "Sister Ran Ran, you are not here to educate me like they are, are you? I have been told enough by my parents these days that my head is getting big, we are classmates Nothing, nothing."

Wen Ran was amused by her: "Is this settled?"

"Ah."

Wen Yuan nodded, as if he didn't want to talk about it.Wen Ran didn't force her either, just at that moment Qiao Yufen came to call her and asked her to go to the study to meet grandpa: "The old man is not in a good mood, you should be more careful, don't touch his bad luck at this time."

Wen Ran nodded, her heart tightened suddenly.The door of the study room was ajar. When she walked to the door, she could hear the old man's scolding from inside.His voice was deep and rich, and he didn't look sick at all.Wen Ran smiled wryly, and when she was about to push the door open, someone came out from inside. She looked up in astonishment, and saw the expressionless face of her uncle Wen Xingzhi.

Taking a step back, Wen Ran called him in a low voice: "Uncle."

"En." The man responded lightly and walked past her.Wen Ran stood where he was, looked at the man's leaving back, and sighed softly.

Knocking on the door again, just as she pushed the door open, Wen Ran felt a flash in front of her eyes, and with the old man's roar, her neck suddenly became hot.This unexpected attack made her feel a little overwhelmed, she caressed her neck with her hand in a daze, the sudden heart-pounding pain almost forced her to cry.

The old man was also taken aback for a moment, but Grandma Cheng, who was standing by the side, came to her senses first, and while trotting to help Wen Ran, she complained to the old man: "You see, you have to see clearly if you are in a hurry to get angry, so I will send Ran Ran to you right now." It’s hurt, Ran Ran, don’t cover it with your hands, let Grandma Cheng take a look.”

Wen Ran looked at the broken teacup under her feet, blinked her eyes slightly: "It's okay, Grandma Cheng." It hurts, but she has to hold back, she looked at her grandfather sitting on the rosewood chair: "Grandpa, let me take a look you."

The old man looked at her, moved his lips, and finally said, "I'll let you become a grandma to apply some medicine for you."

Wen Ran responded with a smile, and walked out with Grandma Cheng.Grandma Cheng was in a hurry to go to the room at the end of the corridor to get the medicine, Wen Ran endured it, and started to jump when Grandma Cheng's back disappeared.

It hurts, it hurts so much.

After the ointment was brought back, Qiao Yufen also came over, and Wen Ran immediately recovered, pressing the wound and enduring the pain.

Grandma Cheng gave her medicine, Qiao Yufen looked at her, her eyes were full of distress: "Look at the wrong time to come here, I finally came here once, and I even made a fuss."

Wen Ran smiled, as if touching the wound, she grinned in pain.Qiao Yufen insisted on keeping her for dinner, but Wen Ran refused.She couldn't imagine sitting at the same dinner table with grandpa later, it would definitely give her indigestion.

Walking to the door, Wen Ran turned around and said to Qiao Yufen, "Auntie, don't tell my mother what happened today."

Qiao Yufen was stunned for a moment, then patted the soft bangs on her forehead, "Okay, good boy, your grandpa didn't target you. If you don't want your mother to know, don't tell me. Remember to apply this ointment when you take it home. Let's take it home slowly." She looks so beautiful, but she can't get scars."

She smiled lightly, but there was an inadvertent pain somewhere.

She still remembers the first time she saw her grandpa when she was a child, when it snowed heavily that day, she and her mother stood outside the red wall, staring at the soldiers on guard.In the end, the soldiers couldn't stand it anymore, and moved in Grandma Cheng, and then Grandma Cheng invited Grandpa.

She was still young at that time, and she only knew that when grandpa talked to her mother, her beard was raised up, but she didn't know that it was a symbol of extreme anger. Before she had time to call grandpa, the old man in front of her slapped her mother Suddenly, the mother staggered and fell to the ground, and she, who was holding on to her mother's hand, also fell to the ground.

At that time, she was terrified, but her mother pulled her up from an unknown force, and said to her grandfather, "Do you recognize Ran Ran as your granddaughter? Did I bring the child here because I want to see you?" To ask for a penny from the Wen family is to let her meet grandpa, and to let her father rest assured!"

Later, grandpa finally accepted her.It's just that she seldom comes here, because every time she comes here, she seems to be injured, which has almost become an iron rule, and she herself can't imagine it.

Suddenly, Wen Ran was slapped lightly on the head, and Wen Ran let out an ouch, and turned her head to see Ye Yizhen, who was flipping through the documents, with a quiet side face and a soft arc: "What are you thinking? You have been standing here for a quarter of an hour I stayed."

Wen Ran came back to her senses, and smiled: "It's okay, teacher, what's the matter with you calling me here?" Not long after returning from his grandfather, he received an email from Ye Yizhen, see you in the college building.Well, under the envious eyes of Liu Feifei and Tong Zhou, Wen Ran was jumping from the other side of the campus to the college building on the other side of the campus in such a cold day wearing gloves.

"Be serious when you have nothing to do." He educated her, "This is your mid-term report. It's almost finished. If there are mistakes, I added notes. I'll go back and revise it and hand it in. And..." He turned sideways, When his gaze swept over her neck, he paused slightly, "Wen Ran, what happened to her neck?"

"Neck?" She was stunned for a moment, and then quickly realized: "I accidentally burned it, it's okay." Touching it with her hand, she still couldn't help but feel a little pain when she touched it. Before she left, Grandma Cheng stuffed her with the medicine, and the cold ointment made her shiver uncontrollably, shrinking her neck.

Seeing this, Ye Yizhen sighed lowly, took the ointment in her hand, picked out some ointment with her fingers, rubbed it lightly a few times, and said to the dazed Wen Ran: "Look up."

"Uh, what, what?"

She raised her head slightly, and saw him bent down and straightened her face. In the next second, the warm fingertips pressed against her wound with a little coolness, and gently massaged until the ointment completely melted: "It can be hot." You are truly a miracle in this place."

She looked down at him with some innocence, and suddenly remembered a sentence she had read on the BBS of University B, which was to evaluate Ye Yizhen and talk about the reason why Ye Yizhen was loved by students.First: Scientific, rational, and professional lectures. Teacher Ye never blames his students in public, but even so, others may not understand them.Well, professional preaching.Second: It is the perfect combination of perfect side face and perfect front face.Three perfect, she was speechless.

Seeing him get up, she immediately took the ointment and thanked him.Ye Yizhen said: "It's okay, seeing my students clumsy, a teacher will inevitably feel a sense of dereliction of duty."

Wen Ran: "..." Ye Yizhen's perfect image was instantly shattered.

She walked out with her schoolbag on her back, and was called back before reaching the door: "By the way, Wen Ran, the college's recently declared projects have been approved, and one of the projects overlaps with your project. Professor Wu said that you You can give it a try, I have already promised it for you."

Wen Ran was stunned for a while, and couldn't help complaining: "This is a harmonious society, teacher, why are you still a dictatorship?"

Ye Yizhen smiled slightly: "When faced with too many choices and the parties may refuse, the autocratic method can also be used."

Wen Ran: "..."

Out of the college building, Wen Ran took out his mobile phone, dialed out the number with Ye Yizhen's name stored in it, looked at the three words for a long time, then gritted his teeth and pressed them, two large characters appeared on the screen: Lao leaf.
