He Yubo knew very well why He Beichen was unwilling to come back to live, but there was nothing he could do.
Even though He Beichen is now relying on his own strength, as long as his grandfather is around, he can never escape such statements.
"Don't look at Beichen as being cold and indifferent as if nothing matters to him, but he actually has a strong sense of self-esteem." He Yubo often counseled his grandson on this matter.
They said things like, "Let them say whatever they want," "Your strength is there, anyone with eyes can see it," and so on.
But it’s no use!
He Beichen never called himself grandpa when he was in the army.
"It is indeed easy for He Beichen to arouse the jealousy of others for having such a good grandfather like you, not to mention that your grandfather has educated him so well." Li Xin turned his head and winked at He Yubo playfully while speaking.
At the same time, Li Xin thought to himself that after He Beichen came back, he could persuade him and ask him to come and spend more time with his grandfather when he was free.
"You are really good at talking." The old man laughed and took Li Xin into the old house.
Although the house is a bit old, it is larger than the one allocated to He Beichen and is a three-bedroom house.
There was a cook in the room. Because He Yubo was old, he had a cook to take care of his diet. The meal was ready and placed on the table.
The cook who prepared the meal should have gone back to the army, but He Yubo was easy to talk to and had no airs, so he was usually allowed to stay and eat with them so he could keep him company for a while.
"Xinxin, you can't cook. That guy wasn't at home these two days, so you must not have eaten well. Eat more. Don't be polite!" He Yubo filled a bowl of rice for Li Xin and kept asking her to eat more.
“Okay…Okay.”
This rice is piled up!
For the three of them, they made three dishes and a soup, which tasted pretty good. Li Xin couldn't refuse the hospitality and ate quite a lot.
After dinner, Li Xin leaned back in his chair and rubbed his stomach, feeling bloated.
"Xinxin, do you want to see that brat's old room?" He Yubo suddenly came over and said to her mysteriously.
"I want to see it."
Li Xin's eyes lit up. She was quite interested in this and a little curious about what He Beichen's room looked like when he was a child.
Isn't he also wearing a stern face?
"Look, that's the room. You can go in and take a look." He Yubo pointed to one of the closed doors.
Li Xin stood up and walked towards the door. The door was not locked and opened easily.
The layout of the room is very simple. Although He Beichen hasn't lived here for a long time, it still maintains the appearance of his childhood and has not changed at all.
The bed was empty, and on the bedside cabinet was a photo frame with a little boy in it.
The photo is a few years old and has turned a little yellow even in the frame.
Li Xin walked over and picked up the photo frame. The little boy in the photo looked like a smaller version of He Beichen, but he didn't smile even when taking the photo. He had the same cool expression as now.
But with her chubby little face, she looks quite cute.
It's this expression...
She stared at the photo for a long time and wanted to take it away, but she knew it was inappropriate.
Li Xin carefully glanced towards the door, and after making sure that no one was paying attention to this side, he took out the camera from the space and quickly took a picture of this photo. He could use the scanner to copy a photo later.
He Beichen hasn't changed much since he was a child. Both his room and his clothes are kept simple. There are also some very crude gun models in his room. At that time, the technology was not as advanced as it is now, and those models are not comparable to those in Du Peng's house.
But judging from the traces on the model, He Beichen played with it a lot when he was a child.
"By the way, I heard... the voltage in the building where you lived last night was unstable, right? The army has sent people there to check and repair it today." When He Yubo saw Li Xin coming out of the room, he told her about the unstable voltage last night.
Li Xin suddenly understood why He Yubo suddenly ran to the research institute to find her. It turned out to be because of this matter.
This unstable voltage incident alarmed quite a few people, and unexpectedly, the news reached the old man's ears.
"If you have any more problems, you can just come and stay at my place. Don't be afraid of trouble. There are plenty of rooms here." He Yubo even wished
It turned out that He Yubo brought her back at noon today, not only to take her to eat, but also to let her recognize the place so that it would be easier to find her.
"There will definitely be no problem after all the repairs. I'm used to living at home and I'm a bit attached to my bed when I sleep." Li Xin declined politely, still feeling that he would be more accustomed to it at home.
"Okay then..." He Yubo didn't force her, "But Beichen should be back tomorrow."
"Um."
…
There was a break at noon. Li Xin stayed here and talked with He Yubo for a while before leaving to go back to the research institute.
It was past lunch time, and some people in the family compound were taking a nap at home. In addition, the sun was very strong at noon, so there were not many people in the compound, only three or two.
Li Xin had only taken a few steps when he saw a familiar figure.
There was a pile of mushrooms in front of her, and the man was moving them around so that they could be dried more evenly.
Tsk…
My luck is really bad that I can meet Wang Cuixiang even in this situation.
Li Xin sighed in her heart. Wang Cuixiang didn't like her, so how could she like Wang Cuixiang? They were the kind of people who would dislike each other as soon as they saw each other.
