It was already past eight o'clock in the evening when Lan Tianhe left. He had drunk quite a bit of wine. Sun Yuqi was worried, so she prepared to send Grandpa Lan back.
Lan Tianhe just waved his hand.
"No, I'm not drunk. I can just walk back slowly. Besides, I don't live far away. It's only about ten minutes away."
In the end, Sun Yuqi had no choice but to send Lan Tianhe out the door. Seeing that his walking posture did not seem like he was drunk, she closed the gate with peace of mind.
When she returned to the house and saw that her grandfather was still drinking, Sun Yuqi reluctantly went forward and put away the bottle and wine cup.
"Grandpa, you're old now. You should drink less of this wine!"
Chen Kun watched the wine bottle being taken away by his granddaughter, smacked his lips, and still said nothing. He took the tea brought by Sun Yuqi and sipped it in small sips.
"Grandpa, it seems Grandpa Lan is just alone. Where are his family members?"
Hearing Sun Yuqi ask this, Chen Kun smiled and put down the teacup, and said softly,
"Your Grandpa Lan's life, to be honest, can be described as sweet first and bitter later!"
"When your Grandpa Lan and I met, we were both the same, both playboys and idlers. But your Grandpa Lan is better than me. Even though he is idle, he is still an intellectual. Unlike me, who is just a cook.
Hearing grandpa's self-deprecating remarks, Sun Yuqi smiled.
"Look at what you said, Grandpa. If you weren't a cook, where would I eat all these delicious foods?"
One of Sun Yuqi's words made Chen Kun burst into laughter. After laughing enough, he continued.
"Your Grandpa Lan's family was quite wealthy back then. After liberation, he became a teacher and did quite well. However, before liberation, his family was forcibly taken away from the mainland by the GMD army and taken to Taiwan. We never got in touch with them again. In 1960, he was transferred from school to work in a government department. During the movement a few years ago, he was also sent down to the countryside, but he returned early, in 1976.
Sun Yuqi didn't expect that Grandpa Lan actually had a connection with Wandao, but she didn't know if he had any relatives there.
It was December, and Sun Yuqi woke up early in the morning to find that it was snowing. She didn't know when it started snowing at night, but when Sun Yuqi got up and opened the door, she found that the snow was more than ten centimeters thick.
At this time, grandpa had already gotten up and prepared breakfast. Hearing the noise, he opened the door and saw Sun Yuqi standing at the door staring at the snow in a daze.
"Girl, why don't you go wash up? You have to go to work soon."
After saying that, he turned around and muttered: I've been in the Northeast for two or three years, isn't it enough to see snow?
Sun Yuqi hurried to the bathroom to wash up. When she arrived at the main room, her grandfather had already placed rice and fried dough sticks on the table.
"Eat quickly."
After breakfast, Sun Yuqi rode her bicycle towards school. Because it was snowing, the road was difficult to walk on, but Sun Yuqi still relied on her own skills and rode her bicycle safely to school.
Sun Yuqi didn't have any classes this morning, so she stayed in the office all morning. When she was about to get off work, she heard a colleague say that someone was looking for her.
Sun Yuqi asked a few questions, but her colleagues couldn't explain it clearly. Sun Yuqi was still wondering if Mu Jingran had come, so she got up, left the office, and went downstairs.
When she got downstairs, Sun Yuqi realized who the visitor was. Out of courtesy and because she didn't want to make her private affairs known to everyone at school, Sun Yuqi chose to go over.
"What do you want from me?"
When Gu Xueyuan heard footsteps coming down the stairs, he turned around and just saw Sun Yuqi walking towards him and smiling.
"I just came to see you."
Sun Yuqi raised her eyebrows and said, "Now that you've finished reading, go back. I've said before that your Gu family has nothing to do with me. My last name is Sun, and I can have the last name Sun for the rest of my life."
Gu Xueyuan smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Nothing. I really came here today just to see you. Also, Gu Yulan is in prison now. She won't be able to get out within three to five years."
Sun Yuqi didn't say anything. She knew about Gu Yulan's affairs. Last time, she wanted to throw feces on herself, and was sent to the police station by Mu Jingran. Later, she heard Mu Jingran say that Gu Yulan was going to be sentenced. Of course, the sentence was not for throwing feces, but for other mistakes she had made in the past.
Now that Gu Xueyuan came to tell her this, Sun Yuqi really didn't feel any sincerity or guilt.
Seeing that Gu Xueyuan didn't say anything else, Sun Yuqi said goodbye and turned back to the office.
Gu Xueyuan looked at Sun Yuqi who was leaving and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. He stood there for a long time until Sun Yuqi's figure disappeared at the entrance of the corridor, and then walked out of the school on the snow.
Sun Yuqi was looking at Gu Xueyuan's figure through the window. She was wondering why Gu Xueyuan came to see her. They hadn't seen each other for a long time, and she thought they had all forgotten her. But now he suddenly appeared, and she always felt a little out of place, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.
This feeling came out of nowhere, but Sun Yuqi had a feeling that Gu Xueyuan didn't just want to see her.
Sun Yuqi was lost in thought here, but a colleague beside her joked.
"Teacher Sun, who is this person? I remember seeing Comrade Mu before, but he didn't look like this!"
Sun Yuqi came back to her senses from her thoughts and glanced at her colleague with a half-smile.
"Teacher Qian, you're overthinking it. This person and I are related by blood. What kind of relationship do we have?"
As soon as Sun Yuqi finished speaking, Teacher Zhang Xinguo beside her laughed.
"I was told, that man and Teacher Sun have almost identical eyebrows. You two must be brother and sister!"
Sun Yuqi said to Zhang Xinguodao.
"Teacher Zhang has good eyesight. According to blood relationship, he is my cousin! But according to family affection, we have no relationship at all."
Sun Yuqi's words were very clear. She was not afraid of the matter being exposed. This was the fact.
Teacher Qian, who spoke in a sarcastic tone, realized that he had misunderstood when Teacher Zhang Xinguo was speaking. He smiled awkwardly, stopped talking, and lowered his head to continue working.
Sun Yuqi had just got off work at noon and was about to go home for dinner when she heard a knock on the door. She looked up and found that it was Mu Jingran.
"Why are you here at this hour?"
Mu Jingran smiled and shook the lunch box in his hand.
"Grandpa said it was snowing today and the roads were slippery, so he asked me to bring it to you and eat at school."
Sun Yuqi was very touched. She took the lunch box with a smile and opened it. It turned out to be pork rib soup, a plate of stir-fried vegetables, and a bowl of rice.
