Chapter 392: Being followed

Dai Qing was stunned when she saw the two people suddenly appear, and then she understood, "Mr. Cai, please come in."

"I didn't expect you lived here. It took me a while to find you."

Mr. Cai smiled, and of course he did not miss the surprise in her eyes. He sighed silently in his heart, because ever since Xiao Kuan called and said he was going out to live for a while, he has not returned home until now.

He knew that the child was resentful and didn't want to face his family, so he didn't force him. The family was indeed not peaceful, with quarrels every day, and he was actually annoyed, but as long as it didn't affect Xiao Kuan's recovery, he naturally didn't mind going to a friend's house to avoid it.

But it is not a long-term solution after all, and I still have to go back to my home in the end.

Fortunately, he has several stable and reliable friends in Xingzhou, so he can rest assured.

But as a grandfather, how could he not care about his grandson? He had endured until now, but he still took the initiative to visit.

Seeing Mr. Cai's exhausted expression, Dai Qing leaned over to invite him in, and explained, "Cai Kuan left after breakfast. If you want to find him, you can call him and ask him to come back."

"You're going out so early? Didn't you say you wanted to take care of your health?" Mr. Cai was stunned and stopped in his tracks.

"The injury has healed. Proper exercise is good for your health." Dai Qing explained helplessly. You two dear grandfathers, if you don't understand, there is nothing she can say.

Mr. Cai sighed and looked at the furnishings in the yard. It was quiet and clean, and indeed more suitable for self-cultivation.

After letting them into the living room, Dai Qing poured them a cup of tea and sat down opposite them.

Mr. Cai picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Xiao Kuan has been living with you these days, and I'm sorry to cause you trouble."

"Mr. Cai, you are too polite. Cai Kuan, Xing Zhou and I are all friends. I have plenty of rooms here, so it will be more lively if a few more people stay here."

She understood that the old man was just being polite when he came to visit her, but she did not agree with the old man's way of doing things, but she also did not want to comment too much on other people's affairs.

Seeing Dai Qing's indifferent tone, Mr. Cai looked at her seriously for a moment and couldn't help but sigh.

"During the time you've lived with Xiao Kuan, you should understand the situation in our family... Every family has its own problems. Xiao Kuan and Xiao Zhao are both my grandsons, and I love them equally, but I raised Xiao Kuan by my side since he was a child. That child is good in everything except that he has a very stubborn temper."

"Once he's determined to do something, nothing can stop him. When he was little, I always let him do what he wanted, but he became even more willful as he grew up. He hasn't even called home in such a long time since he left."

Not only did he not stay at home to recuperate, he even ignored his grandfather.

Fortunately, he did not go to Xingzhou's house to recuperate, otherwise he would have nowhere to put his old face.

Hearing Mr. Cai's tone, Dai Qing looked at him in surprise. She knew that Cai Kuan was very busy. He was either buying a house or renovating a house these days. He was very busy.

But there should still be time to make a call. If she didn't make the call, she would feel uncomfortable. After all, the instigator was a family member. If she were in his place, she would have to leave him alone for a few days.

But now it seems that Cai Kuan has not told his family about buying a house, so she naturally won't tell them either.

"Cai Kuan has been recuperating at home since he was discharged from the hospital. He only went out for a few days. It was really unfortunate."

"It's okay. The main reason I came here today is to thank you. Xiao Kuan lost his parents when he was young, and he values ​​you friends very much." Mr. Cai smiled and pointed to the gift on the table.

"No matter how close you guys are, I am sorry to bother you after all. These are just some of my gifts. Please accept them."

"Mr. Cai, you are too polite."

Dai Qing looked at the gift on the table and accepted it after saying a few polite words.

Elder Cai looked at Dai Qing's calm tone, her expression neither humble nor arrogant, and her words were well-organized. Facing an old man like him, she was not flustered at all, and he had a better impression of her in his heart.

After two cups of tea, seeing that Cai Kuan still showed no signs of coming back, he could no longer sit still.

"As long as Xiao Kuan is living well here, I will be relieved. It's getting late, I'm leaving first. When Xiao Kuan comes back, tell him to call home and tell him that I'm worried about him."

He tolerated the child's willfulness for a period of time, but it would definitely not work in the long run.

"Don't worry, Mr. Cai. I will definitely convey this message."

Cai Kuan is not an unfilial child. Why don’t you know why he didn’t call you?

He Ning said yesterday that Cai Kuan's unit's house had been renovated and they might move out in a few days.

After seeing Mr. Cai off, Dai Qing stood at the door, watching the car going away, feeling a little complicated.

Although being the head of a family is difficult and sometimes people are not treated equally, tolerating infighting among children is not necessarily good for the family.

Anyway, she felt that if she let things go on like this, the conflicts between her children and grandchildren would only get worse.

"Hey, Xiaoqing, another friend is coming over?"

Aunt Zhao came over with a basket of vegetables in her hand, and looked at the car turning out of the alley, feeling extremely envious. She really couldn't understand why her friends were not afraid of this girl's strange abilities and kept coming up to her. What was she trying to do?

Yesterday afternoon, Lao Jin stopped her and came up to her with a smile to show off that Dai Qing had been barbecuing in the yard the day before, which was so delicious that it made people drool. She happened to see it and took a couple of bites.

It is said that young people nowadays really know how to eat. They grill big chunks of meat on charcoal, sizzling and oozing with oil. It looks like a waste, but it is also really delicious.

Seeing Lao Jin's exaggerated tone, she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. She saw Dai Qing buying meat that day with her own eyes. She didn't expect that she would eat it all in one meal. It made her feel distressed just thinking about it. She was really not good at budgeting.

Dai Qing saw Aunt Zhao staring at her in a daze, and she subconsciously looked down at herself. After she found nothing wrong, she spoke.

"Auntie is out buying groceries. It's still a little hot at noon, so hurry back."

After saying this, Dai Qing closed the door and returned to the yard.

To be honest, when she first came to the hutong, the first person she met was Aunt Zhao. At that time, she thought that she should be a good neighbor to Aunt Zhao and help each other in the future.

Unexpectedly, within just a few months, a rift had already developed between the two of them. Fortunately, there wasn't much affection between them, and they were just greeting each other when they met, so there was no need to take it too seriously.

Looking at the closed door, Aunt Zhao's face froze and she felt a little regretful. If she had known earlier, she would not have listened to Lao Jin's coaxing. As soon as she walked away, Lao Jin shamelessly came forward.

In the next few days, Dai Qing would go to Triangle Park to sit for a while every morning and always pay attention to the movements around her. No matter where she went, she could spot the two people.

It was certain that someone was monitoring him.

Fortunately, she has no secrets at the moment, and having someone following her won't affect anything. But this behavior is indeed a bit mean and makes people unhappy.

After Dai Qing finished her stall work and packed up her things, she walked home carrying a stool. She looked at the two people who were far behind her and narrowed her eyes.
