Chapter 57 The Strange Grandpa
Chen Yan raised the card and took a look, then raised his hand and knocked on the door: "Is anyone there?"
Two low and hoarse coughs were heard from far away, and then the old wooden door opened from the inside. An old man with gray hair and a stern expression stood in the door frame.
"Who are you?" the old man asked in an old voice.
Su Youli carefully grabbed Chen Yan's pants and looked up at the grandfather in front of him who looked a little fierce.
"Hello, we are here to record a show. Is this the place in the photo?"
Shen Yan handed the card to the old man.
The old man was old and had a bit of astigmatism. He took out a small cloth bag from his inner pocket. When he opened the bag, he found a pair of glasses with slightly broken temples.
After he confirmed that everything was correct, he turned sideways to let the two people, one adult and one child, outside come in.
"Come in."
The old man led the way with his back bent.
After entering the yard, the old man stood there, raised his arm and pointed to the door next to the main house: "You will live there for the next two days."
Chen Yan wanted to ask about washing and going to the toilet, but before he knew it, the old man with a strange personality walked into the main house and closed the door with a creak.
There are three wooden houses in total. The main house in the middle is the largest. There are some flowers and plants planted in the front yard, and a row of ceramic flower pots are neatly arranged under the eaves.
Although the house is old, it is very clean and tidy, and there is no strange smell.
When Chen Yan was filming, he often had to spend the night in various difficult environments, but it was no problem for him.
It’s just that Su Youli is too young, and he is afraid that Su Youli will not get used to the place.
Chen Yan squatted down, and the little guy was blinking his big eyes like black grapes, looking at everything around him curiously.
"Youyou, can we stay at this grandfather's house for the next two days?"
Su Youli nodded sensibly, not at all squeamish, and walked into the room holding Chen Yan's hand, carrying her small bag.
The floor of the room is not very flat, but fortunately it is not compacted dirt, but a relatively clean cement floor.
The furnishings inside were simple, with a wooden bed and a cabinet that could be used as both a cabinet and a table. It was a bit difficult for Chen Yan to step in with his suitcase.
Su Youli ran outside with a "yo", brought in a small stool, and placed it under Shen Yan's butt for him to sit on.
Chen Yan touched his head, tidied the bed first, and then placed Su Youli on the bed.
Su Youli sat on the edge of the bed, supporting his cheeks with both hands, and watched his elder brother pack up his things carefully.
Tang Dou, who had been paying close attention to this place, was a little worried. It seemed that the eldest young master of the Shen family had never experienced a hard life, and he might have some complaints about this house.
But when he saw the young master take out a clean four-piece suit from the suitcase and put it on neatly, he couldn't help but look at him with admiration.
After changing into a four-piece suit, Chen Yan carried Su Youli out and walked around in the yard.
There was a chicken coop on the right side of the yard, with a few chickens in it. Next to the chicken coop was a duck cage. Su Youli twitched his ears and kicked his legs to get off his elder brother.
Chen Yan put him on the ground, and Su Youli squatted on the ground. The little guy with a height of three heads was very short, and when he squatted like this, he was almost as tall as the duck cage.
There were five little ducks inside, their voices were very small and tender, and there was dry straw under their bodies.
Although Su Youli grew up in a town, his stepfather Su Siwen was a germaphobe, and it took Qin Kun and him a long time to agree to raise Su Yuanzi.
These little ducks are as cute as the ones that took him to the bath, and their short yellow fluff makes them even more realistic.
Chen Yan thought that his little look of liking the baby but not daring to tease him was quite cute, and he was already thinking about building a farm near his home since there was plenty of vacant land at home anyway.
"Youyou, you play with the chicks and ducklings here for a while. I'll go get a basin of water and clean the room."
Su Youli stood up and trotted after his brother: "Brother, I'll help too."
The program crew must have visited the landlord beforehand to inform him and prepared clean towels and basins for the guests and placed them at the door.
They brought their own towels, and this new one is just right for using as a rag.
Chen Yan took a basin of water from the faucet, brought it into the room and wiped here and there.
Su Youli had nothing to do, so he found a broom standing behind the door. He picked it up in both hands and started sweeping the floor diligently.
Shen Yan was quite surprised that the little guy could sweep the floor. He even knew to sweep from the four sides to the middle and gather the garbage together.
After asking Su Youli, I found out that it was his grandfather who taught him how to sweep.
Chen Yan felt relieved but also distressed. If Youyou had been in the Shen family since childhood, he would definitely not have to learn such things.
But seeing that the little guy was not at all squeamish and was helping, Shen Yan felt that it was also good for a boy to be like this.
For example, now, in such a harsh environment, Su Youli not only did not become a burden to him, but even helped him with things.
The two brothers spent an hour cleaning the place where they would sleep for the next two nights.
When the two were about to go out to see what was happening at other families, they saw the owner of the house, who had been hiding in the main house, now sitting in the yard smoking a pipe.
Chen Yan held the little guy's hand and greeted him, introduced himself, and then asked politely:
"Grandpa, what's your name? We are going to bother you these two days."
The gray-haired old man was wearing a black, double-breasted, long-sleeved buttoned shirt, the cuffs and collar of which were washed white.
He took a few puffs from his old-fashioned pipe in one hand, then exhaled a puff of thick, pungent smoke.
The photographers who were following him were also a little embarrassed. How could this old man smoke in front of the camera?
Everyone was afraid to speak when seeing the old man’s fierce face, and could only rely on blurring it out in post-production.
"I've already received the money, why bother you?"
He rented the side room to the production crew for two thousand eight hundred yuan for three days and two nights.
Even if you grow crops in the village for a year, you may not be able to sell them for that much money.
There were people smoking in the yard, and Chen Yan didn't want Youyou to stay here anymore, so he picked him up and was about to leave.
Su Youli leaned on his eldest brother's shoulder and carefully glanced at the old man sitting on the rattan chair.
His clear eyes met a pair of cloudy eyes, and Su Youli blinked a few times.
The little dad said that we should be polite when seeing the elderly. Although the little guy was a little scared, he still raised his little hand and said slowly and softly, "Goodbye, Grandpa."
The fierce old man was still smoking, with two streams of smoke coming out of his nose, which made Su Youli's eyes widen.
After leaving the courtyard, Chen Yan walked along the country road and soon saw Mi Huan and Mile.
Mi Le was holding a corn and chewing it until his face was all covered with it. He saw Su Youli jumping for joy from afar: "Youyou, Youyou."
Su Youli was also very happy to see him. Mile was the second good friend he made since he came to Beicheng.
When Su Youli trotted over, Mi Le had already brought out all the freshly cooked sweet corn from his home.
They moved and dropped things along the way, and Mi Huan followed behind to pick them up.
