Reborn sparrow becomes phoenix

Chapter 87

Lin Yan came back with a bouquet of blooming perfume lilies, and carried them directly into the Xingye Room.

"It's for you." Lin Yan stuffed Lily into Xingye's hand.

"Didn't I say that you are not allowed to send anything casually?" Xingye reproached lightly.

"This is different from the red rose last time. I bought it last time because I saw you liked it. It has no other meaning. Just put it in the room and smell the fragrance of the flowers." Lin Yan quickly explained.

Xingye really likes this kind of lily in his heart, so he doesn't bother with him anymore, "Take that vase, let's get some water and put the flowers in it."

Hearing what Xingye said, Lin Yan regained his energy immediately, picked up the crystal vase on the shelf, and happily followed Xingye downstairs.

Xingye asked Lin Yan to take the vase with the flowers into grandma's room.

"Grandma, look at the lily that Lin Yan bought, how beautiful it is, and the fragrance of this flower is faint." Xingye said to her grandmother.

Her grandma was just short of breath at the time, and there was nothing serious about it. After sleeping, she was enlightened by Xingye. In addition, her personality was relatively open-minded, and she was not the kind of person who likes to make mistakes. This is because her spirit has improved a lot.

Grandma Xingye looked at the flowers in Xingye's hands, and then at Lin Yan who was full of surprise, she knew that they must have been bought for Xingye, and Xingye borrowed flowers to present Buddha, she said with a smile: "Lin Yan really has a heart!"

With a pun, how could Xingye fail to hear grandma's teasing, and said: "Of course he has a heart, he knows you are in a bad mood, so he bought a bouquet of flowers to cheer you up."

Lin Yan also regained his strength at this time, and quickly said: "I don't know what to buy, but I think this noble and elegant flower best matches your old temperament."

Grandma Xingye was amused by him, "I'm already wrinkled, what kind of temperament do I have! Okay, I can still be fooled by my little thoughts. I bought it on purpose, so take it back to your room. It's not suitable for me."

Lin Yan was a little embarrassed when she told her what was in his heart, but he was happy again seeing that she didn't object.

Xingye's expression didn't change, she didn't feel any embarrassment at all, and said: "Is it said that it is for you? You are always unhappy. Seeing such a beautiful flower can make you feel better."

Grandma laughed, "Who said I'm unhappy, I'm upset by the two of you, I can't get angry even if I get angry, now I'm in a good mood."

What Xingye wanted was this effect, and he deliberately said with a serious face: "Then you said that, I really took it away, you must not be unhappy anymore."

"Let's go, you little girl, you've come to tease me in a different way, and sincerely let me rest, can't you? It's okay, I'm fine, you go upstairs to play, and ignore me, an old woman."

Xingye didn't refuse any more, hugging the flowers, followed by Lin Yan, and went back to her room.

Put the flowers on the small coffee table, and I think it looks good when I look at it.

Lin Yan watched Xingye fiddling with flowers, looking like he liked it very much, pulled a chair and sat beside her, and said, "Seeing that you sent it to Grandma Yu, I thought you didn't like it."

Xingye smiled, "If you can make grandma happy, you can give up even if you like it! Grandma is very angry today. When you can talk, say something nice. Make sure grandma is happy, and Grandpa Lin will be happy too. You ..."

Seeing that Lin Yan didn't answer, Xingye raised her head to see that he was looking at her stupidly, and said angrily, "Fool, what are you looking at? I was talking to you, didn't you hear me?"

"The way you played with the flowers just now was so beautiful." Lin Yan said without thinking.

"You..." Seeing his serious expression, Xingye really didn't know what to say about him.

"Don't be angry, what I'm saying is what's in my heart, it's right to say what's in my heart!" Lin Yan said a little shamelessly.

"Well, thank you for your compliment, thank you for your flowers." After Xingye finished speaking, he ignored his words.

"Xingye, if I want to go back, I have to wait for the college entrance examination before I have time to come to Tianyun." Lin Yan didn't dare to say that he can only come to see you after the college entrance examination.

"Well, you have to concentrate on preparing for the battle now, the college entrance examination will not be sloppy, have you decided what major to apply for?" Xing Ye asked.

"I'm going to be admitted to the military academy. They've been whispering in my ears for many years." Lin Yan said relaxedly.

"Is that the kind that directly joins the army as a leader after finishing studies?" Xing Ye asked.

"Yes, you can join the army when you enter university. After four years, you can go to a professional military academy for further study if you have good grades. My dad and the others have assigned a lot of such people over the past few years, and some have directly obtained double bachelor's degrees. , the worst is the deputy company." Lin Yan explained to Xingye.

Xingye didn't know much about these things. What she thought was that it would be appropriate for such an unreliable kid like Lin Yan to wear a military uniform and be a cadre. She felt that the officers were all mighty and dignified. Looking at Lin Yan, he seemed like Don't occupy the side!
"However, I still have to think about it. The army has to be 25 years old to get married, and it will take another 8 years. You have graduated from college for several years, and you don't know how long you can wait. If you want to join the army, it will be even more troublesome." Lin Yan counted with his fingers, and said with some distress.

Xingye almost wanted to jump up and give him a shot, what was going on!Just say he is unreliable!

"Don't you think it's too early to say this?" Xingye said angrily.

"I didn't think of this at all. I just thought of it after hearing your question. After graduating from the military academy, I will be assigned uniformly. If I am assigned to a unit far away from you, it will not be easy to meet. If you are chased away by others What should I do? It seems that I have to reconsider." Lin Yan said solemnly.

Xingye laughed out of breath, "You should consider whether you will pass the exam or not?"

"I can definitely pass the exam, but I have to discuss it with my grandfather." Lin Yan said.

"Go, go now, don't be mad at me." Xingye drove people away like a fly, and before he could say a few serious words, he started talking nonsense again.

"Okay, I won't talk about this anymore?" Lin Yan quickly changed his mouth, "Lu Chang and Qian Meichan both said that they will take the Tianda University exam, and now they are under a lot of pressure."

Xingye nodded after listening. It is true that most of the students in the attached high school, especially the science students, aim at Tianyun University. Tianyun University is called Tianyun University of Science and Technology. Tianda is easier, but not at all. The score line is there. After all, the number of places is limited. The current atmosphere in the third year of senior high school is obviously polarized. Some people know that there is no hope for the exam. The idea of ​​giving it a go, studying desperately, it is said that the school will arrange physical examinations for senior high school students, fearing that some people's health will not be able to bear it.

According to Jia Kai, when they took the Tianda University exam, some people went to the hospital to get an IV drip after the exam, and some people passed out in the exam room due to excessive psychological pressure. No matter how miserable it sounds.

"Xingye, is that kid Lin Yan in your room?" Jia Kai's voice sounded outside the door.

"Yes, come in." Xingye hurriedly greeted him when he heard that it was Jiakai.

"You hid here when you came back." Jia Kai said to Lin Yan, "Let's go, the two old men are on top again, let's finish that game of chess, we have to decide the winner. "

Lin Yanwen had a reluctance on his face. No matter who wins or loses, there must be an old man who will be dissatisfied. In the end, it will be his own grandson who will suffer.

"Why do you have to finish playing?" Xingye asked, seeing both Linye Jiakai and Linye Jiakai's expressions of reluctance.

"The two of them can't compare whether they win or lose. They just compare whose grandson is better. You see, the loser must be unlucky." Jia Kai said.

Xingye heard that the two old men were fighting again, and said, "Then which one of you can win?"

"It's half a catty, it's almost the same." Lin Yan replied truthfully.

"Then let's draw!" Xingye thought it was not easy.

"Then it's so easy to draw." Jia Kai said.

Xingye smiled, "If you all want to make up, it won't be easy."

Jia Kai and Lin Yan looked at each other and nodded knowingly.

Aunt and Xingye were chatting while preparing dinner, Yu Zhongliang was talking with his mother in the living room, Yu Zhongliang was too busy, obviously he lived in the same city, but he was rarely able to chat with his mother a few times throughout the year.

The study door opened, and Mr. Yu greeted Xingye loudly at the door.

Xingye was startled, hurriedly came out of the kitchen, and asked what was the matter.

Mr. Yu looked at his wife and eldest son in the living room, and said, "That kid Yu Jiakai is not up to snuff, you come, and you will be convinced by your grandpa Lin."

Xingye was stunned, it turned out that the rescuers came, "Grandpa, my aunt and I are cooking, how about after dinner?"

"Don't be in a hurry to eat, let your uncle help your aunt, you come." Mr. Yu said.

Grandma also spoke, "Old Yu, don't get off and come out and talk to us, and let Jia Kai and Lin Yan also rest, the two children are just coaxing you to play, let them play by themselves for a while."

If someone else said this, grandpa would definitely not listen, but if it was said by grandma, it would be different.

Lin Yan and Jia Kai went upstairs when they came out disheartened, and they wouldn't come down until it was time to eat.

Because Lin Yan started class on the sixth day of junior high school, Lin Yan and Grandpa Lin went back the next day.

After the first five starry nights, I also calmed down and focused my energy on homework. Now, hurry up and save when I get to the third year of high school, and then go blind.

On the eighth day of the lunar new year, today is the opening day of Meijia Cuisine. Originally, Xingye wanted Grandpa to give it a more elegant name, such as a garden or a pavilion, but Grandpa said that vulgarity means elegance. Private cooking, then call it Meijia cuisine.

Xingye looked at the plaque hanging above the door. To be honest, it was the first time Xingye saw it today. The plaque was made by Xingye’s grandfather, with gold characters on the black background. Look at the signature on the plaque. Wow, this and the nomination from his school came from Wow, that's a famous calligrapher and educator. Unexpectedly, my grandfather could ask for his calligraphy.

The whole old house has taken on a new look, it is only early spring, the flower racks in the yard are not yet covered with flowers and plants, but there are early spring hardy flowers and trees dotted everywhere, giving people a feeling that spring has come.

Antique shapes, cornices and bucket arches, carved doors and windows, and female waiters in Tang suits walk through it, creating a fresh and elegant atmosphere.

Stepping into the room, four palace lanterns are hung high, famous calligraphy and paintings are hung on the wall, antiques and potted plants are placed on the case, a furnace of sandalwood is burned, celadon tureen bowls are placed on the Eight Immortals table, ebony silver chopsticks, full of ancient charm.

Eight elegant rooms and one small hall, with a maximum of twelve tables of guests
Grandpa Xingye praised after watching it, "Okay, it's done well, and this environment has already made me yearn for it."

There was no fanfare for the opening of the store, so that it was not in line with private dishes, it was just a whip, and it was considered open.

Xingye wore the clothes of the service staff and mingled among the crowd. Today, all the people invited were grandpa’s friends, grandma’s close disciples, and some friends of aunt’s. Of course, they also invited some people from units with management authority over the restaurant. There were not many people. , Arrange according to your own circle of contacts.

Xingye wandered around with Zhu Hefeng in the kitchen. Today, Zhu Hefeng held his strength and arranged all the signature dishes he was good at, directing the two apprentices and a few odd jobs around.

"Xingye, so you are here," Zhu Xiaojia came to the kitchen.

"What's wrong, sister Xiaojia? What's the matter?" Xingye reluctantly put down the small bowl of Tai Chi soup that Uncle Zhu specially served for her.

"I'm so busy, you don't even say to help, just hide here and steal food." Zhu Xiaojia said.

"Well, I told you that you are the manager! Today I accompanied my grandma to eat." Xingye said irresponsibly.

"Yes, little ancestor, but your grandmother is looking for you, why don't you go over and have a look, and greet Qinxuan's guests by the way."

"Okay, okay, I'm going now."

Xingye trotted all the way, and the eight rooms were all named, and the names were also related to their own characteristics. Like the Qin Pavilion where Grandma Xingye and the others sat, there was an extra piano table in the room than other rooms, and a Guqin set On the case, the paintings hanging on the wall also have musical allusions such as Boya Yuziqi.

"Grandma, you are looking for me." The Starry Night Man arrived before the sound.

There were seven or eight old men and women sitting around this table.

"Well, it's her, my little granddaughter." Grandma said with a proud face, "Xingye, these are friends of grandma, you can just call me grandpa and grandma."

Xingye hurriedly said hello.

Everyone praised it, saying that it is rare to have such a quiet and good place in the city, what a coincidence.

Xingye knew that these were people from Liyuan, and introduced that there are also some small musical instruments such as Jinghu and Ruanqin. It’s even more about the hobbies of these people, and there are those who love to be lively and want to try it right away.

Xingye hurriedly stopped him, and said with a smile: "We have plenty of time, so we'll serve the food now, why not try the Mei family's private kitchen first."

Zhu Xiaojia personally brought people to serve the dishes, and introduced one dish after another. They were all carefully prepared delicacies, and everyone was very impressed when they tasted them.

Zhu Xiaojia was by the side, seeing everyone eating happily, she let go of a hanging heart.

But there was someone calling again, it turned out that it was Yu Zhongliang who came, he didn't bring anyone with much fanfare, only a few or two of his confidantes and friends came.

Zhu Xiaojia went over and arranged it in the library. One of his friends was a university professor who specialized in studying ancient Chinese. When he saw the shelves full of books, he rushed towards him.

At first, people thought they were just for decoration, and didn't pay much attention to them. Unexpectedly, his friend would not let go of the book, and refused to eat when the food was served. When I picked up the books on the shelf, I was surprised to find that they were all vertically typed linear ancient books, and some of them were ancient books that were rarely handed down from generation to generation. If they were all genuine, they would be worth a fortune.

Seeing everyone's surprise, Zhu Xiaojia snickered. At first, she also felt that Xingye was too serious. Of course, these statements are not true, but the content is true. Many of them are genuine products that Xingye borrowed from her grandfather, and people deliberately imitated them. Well, now it looks like a great idea.
