don't get angry, senpai

Chapter 8 [008] Stubborn grandparents

Zhiyuan checked the items in his pockets. The key, change, and PHS, the three essential items for going out were not missing, and the blank look on his face became more and more obvious.

The boss shook his head and sighed, and said softly, "You haven't paid for the meal yet."

This girl looks quite good-looking, why does she feel so naive, like an idiot?

"!"

Xia Zhiyuan was stunned, and it took a long time to reflect, she lowered her little head in shame.

Anyone with sharp eyes will notice that her cheeks flush rapidly.

What a shame!
After fumbling around in his pocket, he immediately took out the big red banknote and handed it to the other party.

She whispered, "I'm sorry~"

The boss didn't mind, and he looked for the change in a hurry, and handed it to the other party after making sure the calculation was correct: "Take it well, welcome to come again next time."

"Thank you."

After leaving the snack bar, Xia Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief: "The boss is not bad, he is easy-going and will take care of customers' face. Anyway, I don't have any contact information for other fast food restaurants. If my mother is on a business trip in the future, I will choose this one."

Originally, Zhiyuan planned to go to the bookstore to browse the comic magazines "Zhiman", "Yilin", and "Reader", but just walked out of the air-conditioned shop and found that the outdoor temperature was frighteningly high, so she decided to go home and take a nap. Say.

"By the way, at this time, the two elderly people have almost finished their lunch. I will go over to help take out the trash now, so I don't have to go there in the afternoon."

Having made up her mind, Zhi Yuan quickly walked towards her grandmother's house.

Promise Ye Haitang to help take care of the old man, so he can't break his promise.

No matter how eccentric they are, they are their own grandparents after all.

"Ding dong~"

Through two doors, I heard the bell ringing in the room.

Zhiyuan knew that the old man should hear it, and had to wait for a while due to the inconvenience of moving.

One minute later, the old lady pushed open the inner door and looked at the girl in front: "What's the matter?"

Xia Zhiyuan's expression was indifferent, and her tone was calm: "Take out the trash."

She is not the original owner, so she will not have too much emotional fluctuations towards the people around her.

Except for Ye Haitang, the mother who wholeheartedly protects her, it is difficult for anyone to make her have strong mood swings.

As long as the old lady refuses, Xia Zhiyuan will immediately turn around and leave. From then on, she will never visit her house again, and she will only complete her mother's task.

What surprised her was that the old lady didn't refuse the door this time, but opened the last iron door and turned around: "Come in."

It is estimated that the elderly have bad legs and feet. Instead of going downstairs to take out the garbage by themselves, it is better to let the young people do it for them.

The old lady asked, "Why are you here at noon?"

"The hospital was relocated recently, and my mother didn't have time to come over, so I will replace her first and help you take out the trash."

Xia Zhiyuan's casual attitude made the old lady a little dissatisfied.

After packing the garbage bags, Zhiyuan didn't stay and planned to leave directly.

"Wait a minute."

"Is something wrong?"

The old lady took the red envelope and handed it to the other party: "This is your tuition fee."

This familiar scene made Zhiyuan recall what happened to the original owner.

When she was about five or six years old, during the Spring Festival, Ye Haitang squatted down and looked at her daughter: "If grandma gives you a red envelope later, you can refuse it. Under normal circumstances, she will force it to you. You have to be polite." Refuse, understand?"

Little Zhiyuan nodded half-understanding, anyway, the red envelopes go into the mother's pocket every year.

As Ye Haitang said, grandma really gave herself a red envelope: "Happy New Year!"

"Grandma, I don't need red envelopes."

"Oh, then I won't give it to you."

Paper kite:? ? ?
The young heart suffered tons of critical damage.

Came back to his senses, Zhi Yuan shook his head: "No, your old man saves it to buy food for himself. You have lived frugally and worked hard all your life, and gave all your money to others. Do you really think you are a good person?"

If it were the original owner, he would definitely not say this in person, and he would have to take care of the old man's face.

Because grandma was too strong, she brought up her past when she disagreed with her, she was so wronged that she shed tears, as if everyone had to owe her.

The old lady froze for a moment, and the movement of taking the red envelope froze in mid-air.

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first." Zhiyuan didn't want to talk nonsense, she was eager to go home and take a shower to rest.

Xia Zhiyuan couldn't agree with what the two elders did.

The last time my aunt complained about my grandfather not flushing the toilet, the reason for the old man was to save a few cents.

Every time the toilet stinks, it's my aunt who scrubs it, so it's no wonder she's not too angry.

However, grandpa and grandma are very stubborn, and the family members can't intervene, let alone she is an outsider?
"Come in and sit for a while."

"No, I'm going back to rest."

Seeing that Zhiyuan was about to leave, the old lady hurriedly shouted: "I have something to ask you!"

"What's the matter?" Zhiyuan stood at the door.

She really didn't want to stay longer, and it was very tiring to communicate with two stubborn old people.

"I want you to ask me about Ye Zhen's recent situation."

"Just dial the phone yourself."

Grandma didn't give up: "I'm afraid people will dislike me. Your uncle and aunt won't let me call because that kid is busy with the high school entrance exam recently. But no matter how busy I feel, I should have time to rest."

Xia Zhiyuan sneered: "Oh hehe, you clearly know that he is going to take the high school entrance examination, so why do you want me to disturb him? Besides, I don't think that talking for a few minutes will make Ye Zhen feel uncomfortable."

"This"

The dispute between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law ended in failure with grandma, but as far as Zhi Yuan knew, uncle and aunt never restricted cousin Ye Zhen's mobile phone.

In other words, Ye Zhen didn't want to call because he was really busy.

Sometimes the two of them texted and chatted, and grandma talked about the matter of "they won't let me call that kid" all day long.

Nothing!

"I'll leave first. If you need anything, you can call me directly."

Xia Zhiyuan didn't stop, and left with the garbage bag.

Facing the strength of the old man, sometimes you have to be stronger than him.

You can't make any concessions, otherwise you will be foolish and filial.

Grandma's failure to go home for the elderly was precisely because it seriously affected the harmonious family relationship of her cousin's family of three, Xia Zhiyuan naturally would not spoil the old man.

After throwing away the garbage bag and clapping her little palms, Zhiyuan inadvertently spotted two old grandpas with mottled white hair sitting under the tree.

When I got closer, I found that they were playing chess, and there was a water bottle next to each of them, with goji berries floating in it.

Adhering to the principle of watching chess without saying a word, Xia Zhiyuan quietly stood by and watched the game.

The entertainment for the elderly to pass the time in this era is not square dancing, but mainly reading, making tea, playing chess, and exercising in the park.

The two old men looked serious, holding the chess to find the landing point.

At present, the chess situation has entered the anxious stage, and the "cars" of both sides have been eliminated.

The white-bearded old man had one cannon and two cannons, while the old man with glasses was a sneak soldier crossing the river with one cannon and two cannons.

"General!"

"I block!"

"Again!"

"I eat!"

"It's useless, General!"
