He Zhen looked at his grandfather who was getting more and more outrageous and said speechlessly: "Grandpa, do you want to watch what you are saying? Do you think others won't say anything when I'm not at home?"
Grandpa He glared at He Zhen angrily, "Look at what use you have. Haven't you even used the good looks your grandpa gave you? What a waste! I thought you could bring her back this time. If you can't bring her back, why did you come back? You let the little girl stay in the guesthouse alone?"
He Zhen looked at his grandfather in front of him and said helplessly, "Grandpa, today is your first day back. What will others think if I don't come back to see you?"
Hearing this, the old man said angrily again: "You only came back to see me because of others, right? If it weren't for other people's ideas, you wouldn't have come back to see me, right? I knew you were always a rebellious grandson. Humph! Why don't I have a well-behaved little granddaughter, but you are such a rebellious grandson."
He Zhen looked at his grandfather's unreasonable look, thought of what he was about to say to him, and apologized for his ignorance. His grandfather was indeed very stubborn now, and this was not just stubbornness, it was unreasonable.
However, He Zhen was too embarrassed to argue with the man in front of him, so he could only say soothingly: "Grandpa, please be reasonable. I will bring people to see you later."
Grandpa He's expression finally eased a little, but he still refused to give in and said, "Then you want Miss Han to come see me first, and not to go see Old Man Zeng first."
He Zhen looked at his grandfather, listened to his unreasonable request, and patiently explained: "Grandpa, you can't do this. Since Great-grandfather mentioned her, you must know Comrade Han's work. She works in this area, and what she did here is also related to this area. Great-grandfather is an expert in this field, how could he not meet her?"
The old man also knew that he was wrong in this matter, so he could only say: "Then the second one to see must be me."
He Zhen said weakly, "I'll try my best, Grandpa. Look at the time now. Didn't you say you should take good care of your health? It's already an hour past your bedtime. Go upstairs and get some sleep. I've been traveling for two days and haven't had a good rest. Let's go and rest first. We can talk later if there's anything else."
Hearing this, Grandpa He also saw the dark circles under his grandson's eyes. He didn't feel sorry for his grandson, so he let He Zhen go and yawned. "Okay, okay, go to bed quickly. I'll prepare your favorite soy milk and fried dough sticks for you tomorrow morning."
He Zhen nodded, walked forward to support his grandfather, helped his grandfather into the room, covered him with a quilt and was about to go out. Before he walked out of the door, he heard his grandfather's somewhat tired voice behind him.
"Xiao Zhen, I'm glad you're back. Grandpa is very happy to see you again."
He Zhen looked back at his grandfather's face, which was full of traces of time, and said with a slightly choked voice: "I am very happy to come back and see a healthy grandfather. Thank you, Grandpa."
Grandpa He's eyes were moist, which was rare. He forced a smile and said to He Zhen, "Okay, go to bed. I need some rest too."
After He Zhen turned off the lights, he closed the door and turned to leave.
After going out, He Zhen rubbed his face. He actually knew his grandfather well. He had always been a man with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. However, both of them had hard personalities and would not usually say what they thought. He Zhen was still very surprised when his grandfather said these words today.
