Chapter 73 Are you living together?
Jiang Xian organized Jiang Zhao's coming-of-age ceremony very well.
Yu Bin accepted the invitation and took Yu Li there. When he was sitting in the car, he kept telling him: "Jiang Zhao is the birthday star today, he may be very busy, so don't go to him."
He has talked more recently than he has said in a year, but fortunately Yu Li doesn't find him annoying, and he nods obediently every time.
At the end of the point, Yu Bin also found that what he said back and forth were all the words of the car, so he took the initiative to shut up and resumed his previous silence.
The day when Jiang Zhao was born was very good. In the midsummer full of flowers, the venue for the coming-of-age ceremony was a huge manor. The car passed the concrete road, with flowers planted on both sides. The flowers and branches are entangled, and only half of the face exposed is quite mysterious.
When they arrived at the place, the hall had already gathered a lot of dignitaries from the political and business circles. The Roman pillars supported the tall dome, and the celebrities and ladies and the elites in suits and shoes shuttled through it, gathering into a luxurious visual feast.
Yu Li followed beside his father, watching everything in front of him calmly, estimating the price in his heart, and deeply felt that it was meaningless to spend money here.
Yu Bin obviously had the same idea as him, watching with cold eyes, as if this extraordinary scene in the world was just a piece of rubbish.
Jiang Xian turned his head to see them, quickly said goodbye to the people who greeted him, walked over a few steps, and said, "Here we come, let the children go inside first to find Jiang Zhao."
He motioned, but Yu Bin said: "Let him stay by my side, it would be good to learn a lot."
Jiang Xian noticed something, smiled and squeezed to Yu Li's side, and said, "How about it, the ostentation here fits the godfather's temperament, right?"
Yuri nodded.
"When you marry Jiang Zhao, godfather will make you a more..."
"Jiang Xian." Yu Bin turned cold, and said to Yu Li: "Go over there to play, Dad has something to talk to Uncle Jiang."
Yu Li walked away honestly, and Yu Bin said: "The horoscope has not been written yet, so don't talk nonsense."
"I know what Jiang Zhao did was wrong before, and he didn't do it on purpose..."
Yu Bin interrupted him: "I have someone to introduce you to."
"Is your director good?" Jiang Xiandao: "It's easy to say, isn't it just to attract investment, I will introduce you a few more today..."
The two fathers left, Yu Li looked left and right, subconsciously looking for Jiang Zhao.
He walked through a corridor, and saw a man and a woman in front of a carved door. They were talking: "What do you think this little monster is thinking? He finally won the first prize in the exam, and grandpa promised to let him live in the old house." It's the coming-of-age ceremony, but I have to do something like that at school again, now that I offend Grandpa, let's kick him out."
"But his life is good." The girl frowned and said, "This place is not worse than the old house."
"Can that be the same?" The boy said, "If he does it here, it means he's not from the Jiang family. Uncle doesn't know what to think, so let him mess around."
Yu Li walked over, and the two immediately stood up slightly.
"He looks so familiar..." the girl whispered, and the boy had a weird expression: "Isn't this the little mute, the two monsters got together."
"Is Jiang Zhao in there?" Yu Li raised his watch and asked, "I want to find him."
The boy said: "Not here, I guess I went to the front."
Yu Li nodded and continued to walk forward, but the other party shouted from behind: "The back is the family rest area, and guests are not allowed to enter casually."
Yuri ignored him.
If these two people count as Jiang Zhao's family members, then he is a family member of the family.
In the lounge, Jiang Zhao's glasses slipped to the bridge of his nose, and he lowered his head to look at the running game characters on the small screen.Looking through the lens, only the picture on the small screen is colored, while the rest of the room is still in black and white, as if entering an old-fashioned black and white TV.
Yu Li observed the signs on the left and right doors, thinking about where Jiang Zhao might be.
Out of sight, the black and white carved sofa suddenly revealed golden and red intertwined colors.
Eyelids lifted, the colors in the lounge lit up and dimmed, then brightened up again.
He raised his hand and took off his glasses, staring at them for a moment.
Yu Li wondered where Jiang Zhao was for a while, and then wondered why those two people were called Jiang Zhao little monsters. It sounds like they should be a family, a grandfather, are they the children of Uncle Jiang Zhaotang?
The same goes for Jiang Zhao, even though today was his coming-of-age ceremony, he ran away without a trace.
The dark lounge was once again dyed, Jiang Zhao thought for a while, put down his long legs, and got up from the sofa.
【Owner's Lounge】
Yu Li stared at the sign for two seconds, suspecting that Jiang Zhao should be inside.
... Dad seems to say that he is not allowed to take the initiative to find Jiang Zhao.
Maybe Jiang Zhao wasn't in there.
He raised and retracted his hand, with a hesitant expression.
What if you are inside.
……
Those who shouldn't have come will lose if they let Jiang Zhao know that he is looking for him.
Yu Li turned around, and turned back unwillingly.
The tall retro carved door was opened from the inside, and a person in a pure white suit walked out.
Although it was a double standard, the moment he saw Jiang Zhao, he realized that today's ostentation was not so wasteful.
It matches well with Jiang Zhao.
Stable colors spread from his feet, stretching wildly.
Jiang Zhao's eyes were soft: "It looks so good today."
"You're not bad either."
"Just now, were you looking for me?"
nod.
"Come in?"
Yuri walked in directly.
Jiang Zhao turned sideways and closed the door again.The little classmate has already swaggered around in his lounge. There is a pile of gifts next to the fireplace in the corner. Yu Li showed some curiosity and pointed.
"I don't know who sent it, but you can take it apart if you want to see it."
Jiang Zhao must have given it to him because he thought it would be troublesome to unwrap the gift, and Yu Li was not fooled at all.
Wen Baikai poured it into the cup from the slender spout, and Jiang Zhao asked him, "Do you want some water?"
He raised his glass, Yu Li approached directly, and drank with his hand.
After drinking, he licked his lips and raised his watch: "More."
Jiang Zhao withdrew his hand and poured another glass. After Yu Li finished drinking, he sat directly on the sofa he had been sitting on just now, and picked up his game console.
Jiang Zhao sat down beside him, played with his glasses with his fingertips, and stared at him.
Yu Li suddenly turned her face and met his gaze.
Their eyes met, and neither of them shy away from it. Jiang Zhao put his hands on the sofa lightly, and leaned towards him. Yu Li also turned sideways, and his upper body slapped him a little bit.
Jiang Zhao's breathing was tight, and he slowly drew closer to him.
Yu Liteng slammed right in front of him, the tip of his nose was less than one centimeter away from him, and his clear eyes were serious and never backed down.
Jiang Zhao: "..."
He leaned back restrainedly, pulled back the normal distance, and said softly, "Do you want to eat something?"
Yu Li wasn't bullying, even though he had gained the upper hand, he didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue him, but pulled back the same distance and shook his head.
The watch said: "Someone called you a little monster just now."
Jiang Zhao raised his brows slightly and nodded, noncommittal: "Those trash from the Jiang family."
It was the first time he saw Jiang Zhao calling other people trash, and he was stunned for a while before bowing his head and typing again: "Then I am also a little monster."
Jiang Zhao smiled lightly, reached out and rubbed his head, but before he could speak, Yu Li had already touched his head as if looking in a mirror.
"..." Jiang Zhao retrieved the words that slipped away in his mind again, and said, "You won't attack others because you can't speak, how could you be a monster."
"Do normal people like little monsters?"
Jiang Zhao's breathing was quiet for a moment: "You really, like me."
nod.The watch continued to say: "Only a little." His fingers still squeezed a little distance in front of him miserly.
Jiang Zhao held his hand, and Yu Li clasped his hands together, holding his palm with soft palms, with a clean and fearless expression.
Jiang Zhao let go again wordlessly, separated from him, sighed and sat to one side.
Yu Li immediately moved her body and squeezed towards him.
Jiang Zhao moved to the armrest of the sofa, propped his elbows on it, and supported his expressionless face with his curled fingers.
Yu Li continued to stick to him, and turned to play the game console.
Jiang Zhao glanced at him, looked away again, and said in a low voice, "I'm actually not very popular in the whole family. My grandparents don't like me, and my father fell out with them because they refused to give me a coming-of-age ceremony. , now here, everyone knows that I have nothing to do with the Jiang family."
Yuri's eyes moved from the screen of the game console to his face.
His posture was a bit lazy, but his expression could not hide his loneliness. Yu Li put both hands on the back of his hand and listened obediently.
"Actually, I can understand that they don't like me. After my mother and father divorced, the family fell into poverty. I have physical defects. If someone bullies me, I will naturally bully me back." Some warm liquid was sprayed on the face, It was so dark, he thought, this person is already like this, and he dared to spray ink all over his face, so he hit harder.Until the servant's scream came from beside him, his father hugged him with strong arms, his voice trembling: "How did you beat him like this..."
The little Jiang Zhao looked at the ball on the ground calmly, and said in a childish voice, "It's time to hit."
"Sometimes I accidentally strike hard, and grandpa thinks I'm hopeless. He doesn't care how others bully me, and he only cares whether I have caused any harm to others when I hit back."
His hand was held, and Yu Li still listened carefully.
The old house is full of green trees, and it is a continuous shade in summer.Jiang Xian dragged the suitcase with one hand, and the young him with the other, and the thick black door closed behind him.
"where are we going."
"Go to a place where there are only us father and son." Jiang Xian's black and white face revealed a touch of cunning: "Are you afraid?"
"Are you afraid of it."
Jiang Xian didn't look back, didn't take a second look at the home he had lived in for many years, and his mother standing behind watching him, and said with a smile, "I'm an adult, so I have nothing to be afraid of."
Yu Li was very angry: "If you bully others, you have to bear the consequences. How can your grandfather not distinguish between right and wrong?"
"It doesn't matter anymore." Jiang Zhao didn't tell him the unspoken past, instead he held Yu Li's finger and said, "Your grandfather must be fine."
nod.
"Can you tell me?"
nod.
As he recalled, he spoke intermittently in a soft voice.
"My grandfather is different from your grandfather."
Grandpa Yu is cheerful and optimistic. He is a well-known wise man of Ginkgo. Even if young people sit in front of him for a whole day, they will not feel bored, because he can always use interesting descriptions to say meaningless things, and what he says is beyond words. Very convincing.
When Yu Li was in his arms, he held him in his arms and watched him talk. As he grew older, he sat on his lap, and then he carried his own ponytail on his back when he went out. When he started playing chess, he put on his back Put down the horse on the bed, sit under the tree and watch the chess game with your chin resting.
The old man likes reading books very much, especially martial arts novels. The cabinet is full of his books, as well as various famous classics. I heard that grandpa read them and passed them on to Yu Li. Those books have long since withered. But they are all well preserved, and Yu Li can hold them for a whole day.
When I was very young, someone said that Yu Li was the oil bottle of Grandpa Yu, but Grandpa Yu always refuted it solemnly, saying that he was a gold vase, a treasure vase, and what was in his belly was what was left after he entered his twilight years. pistachio.
When he was young, his happiness was on his father, then on his wife, then on his son and daughter, and finally, all the happiness was on his god-given little grandson.
Perhaps it is a common problem of the elderly, but Grandpa Yu likes to talk about his youth, his father who married him because he had no money to read books, his fierce but short-lived mother, and his two children.
But he never talked about Grandma Yu.
Yu Li only knew that after the renovation of the old house, he still kept the only small wooden box left by his grandmother, and the wooden bed that two people slept in from young to old, which was dilapidated and could only be propped up by stools.
In the newly renovated house, these two things are incompatible.
Yu Li slept on it when he was a child, but because it was too cold, his grandfather took him to buy a new one, and he never slept on it again.
It was not until he passed away that these two things were moved out and burned to ashes in front of his grave.
Yu Li didn't understand before, but now he seems to understand a little bit, why when he left, he always hoped that Yu Li could find a partner, and he always had dissatisfaction and regret for Yu Bin being alone.
He looked at Jiang Zhao, who looked a little emotional, and even the idea of getting closer was temporarily blocked.
"My grandpa is also very good to my grandma, but he has many grandchildren, so he doesn't care too much."
"Grandpa said that a partner is a person who will last a lifetime, and other people's thoughts are not that important." He nodded his watch and said, "Not everyone will agree with you, but in fact it is very simple to get the approval of most people, as long as you are willing As mediocre as they are."
Jiang Zhao moved closer to him, brushed aside the bangs on his forehead with his fingers, revealing those lacquer-like eyes.
"Do you care about me."
nod.
"Then we are now... huh?"
Yuli: "?"
Jiang Zhao said, "Are they counted together?"
Shaking his head.
"..."
"I like you a little bit, but I'm still very angry with you, and Dad is right, I have no reason to have to you, it sounds boring to have dinner, watch a movie and chat with you."
Why did a father come out?
Jiang Zhao hesitated and said, "Your father, don't you like me a lot?"
"I used to like it, but now I don't like it." The watch said, "Because he thinks you are not a good person."
"You don't think so, do you?"
nod.
"..." Jiang Zhao distanced himself from him silently, pursing his lips in displeasure.
Yu Li looked at him: "Are you angry with my father?"
"No." Jiang Zhao adjusted his expression and said, "Why do you think I'm not a good person?"
Yu Li shook his head: "It's not important."
"Yes, it's not important." Jiang Zhao said honestly: "The important thing is that you still like me even though you know I'm not a good person."
Nod, and correct: "Only a little."
Jiang Zhao thought about it, and hooked his fingers at him.Yu Li opened a wider distance from him in an instant, and leaned against the armrest on the other side.
And imitated the example, and hooked him.
He is not a fool, how could he let Jiang Zhao come and go as soon as he is called.Call the puppy?
Jiang Zhao: "..."
He took a step ahead and moved to the middle.
Yu Li also moved to the middle and continued to sit next to him.
"What I mean is." Jiang Zhao leaned closer to his ear and said, "When I go to college, buy a house nearby, and then we will live together."
Yuri didn't nod or shake his head.
This means that I have not thought about whether to agree or not.
"Tell Uncle Yu that the accommodation is definitely not comfortable outside, and it will be more convenient for you to observe what kind of person I am at a close distance, right?"
When the time was up, Jiang Zhao went to the lobby to cut the cake and accept his wishes, Yu Li sat beside his father, Yu Bin was busy talking with the people around him, and had no time to pay attention to him until the banquet was over, Yu Li followed him into the car , I heard him say: "Did you go to Jiang Zhao secretly?"
Nod and explain: "Someone called him a little monster."
Yu Bin frowned, and said, "What nonsense."
"Jiang Zhao is so pitiful. Grandpa and grandma don't like him." The watch's voice was soft, and Yu Li's expression was obedient. Yu Bin had to brace himself: "What else did he say?"
Yuli told him about the accommodation.
"What kind of person is he from a close look?"
nod.
Yu Bin held back the words for a long time very badly, but the driver in front saw him racking his brains and couldn't stand it.
"Observation is not the most important thing, the main thing is close range, doctor, this is the trap."
Yu Li suddenly realized that the books his father read were recommended by this uncle.
In the car, Jiang Zhao suddenly tilted his head and sneezed. Jiang Xian glanced at him and said, "You did something bad, and someone scolded you again."
Jiang Zhao rubbed his nose and said, "He said he only likes me a little bit."
"What a silly boy." Jiang Xian felt quite ashamed of his conscience, and said, "Just be content with it."
