Chapter 348 I'm not annoyed by Grandpa, I like Grandpa
Both Si Zhendong and Shen Baohua inside the room were taken aback.
Si Zhendong: "I told you I'd invite someone to perform at home, but you insisted on coming here. The soundproofing is really terrible."
Grandpa Shen tilted his head and pondered for a long time, then muttered softly, "It sounds like my granddaughter's voice to me."
“How could that be? I’ve seen that child. He’s timid. You’re always so stern. Even a kid would run away when he sees you.” Si Zhendong waved his hand, signaling to the waiter inside, “Close the door. We’ll open it again when the opera starts.”
"Grandpa," Si Jingxu called out from the doorway.
Si Zhendong stopped the waiter, looking at his old friend with a puzzled expression. "It might really be your granddaughter; this is my grandson's voice."
"Why is my granddaughter with your grandson?" Shen Baohua asked, puzzled, but immediately instructed the waiter, "Go and invite the two children from outside in."
"Oh, you didn't know?" Si Zhendong chuckled. "The two kids are dating."
As soon as he finished speaking, Si Jingxu led Shen Buyu in by the hand.
"Grandpa! Grandpa Si," Shen Buyu called out with a smile.
“Grandpa, Grandpa Shen.” Si Jingxu followed behind her.
Si Zhendong's face was full of wrinkles from smiling. He had asked his grandson several times to see the little girl, but had not been allowed to.
It was definitely worth coming out today.
"Good boy, good boy, sit down." Si Zhendong looked at Shen Buyu, "What do you like to eat?"
“We’re not here, we just came over to say hello,” Si Jingxu said, as he was finally able to spend some time alone with his girlfriend.
Si Zhendong was unhappy.
Shen Baohua's gaze fell on the two children's clasped hands for a moment, he coughed, and didn't know what to say.
If the child has already said he wants to go next door, will it seem unreasonable for him to try to persuade him to stay?
Wouldn't it be too embarrassing if I were to be rude to them?
He took a small sip of tea, then put it down, still without saying a word.
Shen Buyu clearly heard her grandfather bragging about her to others from the doorway just now.
She was certain that the old man wouldn't be annoyed by her, and even liked her a little.
"Grandpa," Shen Buyu walked to Grandpa Shen's side and pointed to the lotus-shaped pastries on the table, "Is this delicious?"
Grandpa Shen brought the plate of pastries over, placed it in front of her, and said one word, "Eat."
Without any hesitation, Shen Buyu reached out, picked it up, took a bite, and then gave a thumbs-up in surprise.
Shen Baohua was secretly delighted, but his face remained expressionless.
He gestured to the waiter, "Bring a chair and a pot of jasmine tea, make it a little weak."
Shen Buyu's smile deepened. She thought to herself, "You've already said it. Grandpa even knows that she likes to drink light jasmine tea."
"Thank you, Grandpa." With a sweet smile on her face, she sat down next to Grandpa Shen.
Si Jingxu stood there, letting out a silent sigh.
I finally didn't have to participate in team building activities, so I came here to spend time with my grandpa.
He lingered unnecessarily at the doorway just now.
“Hey, Bu Yu has already sat down, what are you standing there for?” Si Zhendong was happy to see his grandson make a fool of himself. “Come on, grandson, sit next to grandpa.”
They made no attempt to hide their schadenfreude.
Si Jingxu snorted coldly, told the waiter to put a chair next to Chen Buyu, and walked straight over.
Si Zhendong grinned. "He's forgotten his mother after getting married. This is nothing, and he doesn't even want his grandfather anymore."
He clicked his tongue again and again.
My old buddies will laugh at me to death later.
Look at that granddaughter, she's beautiful, sweet-talking, and has a great personality.
Although Old Man Shen had no expression, his beard was practically sticking up to the sky.
Where can I go to seek justice?
"Grandpa, have this," Shen Buyu pushed the plate of snacks in front of the old man. "The sugar level is just right, not too sweet."
"Hmm." Old Master Shen reached out and picked up a piece.
Shen Buyu took one look and realized that this matter could be accomplished; the old man was extremely cooperative.
She was thinking that she needed to get some juicy gossip to get a few more words from the master.
"Grandpa," she said softly, looking at Shen Baohua expectantly, "Are you annoyed with me?"
Shen Baohua choked for a moment, then quickly offered him some tea.
At his age and in the era he lived in, it wasn't fashionable to express affection or concern verbally.
When it comes to concrete events, it is far more effective than empty talk.
Who knew that as this generation after generation has developed, love and affection have been brought into the open by young people in real time.
He definitely won't be annoyed.
From the first time I met her, when she called me "Grandpa" for the first time, I never got annoyed.
But... how should I put it?
It would be better if it were a boy, like Old Man Si, who would say a few words to his grandson.
But she's a little girl, what if I say something too harsh and she cries?
Shen Buyu held half a lotus-shaped pastry in his hand, waiting for Old Master Shen's reply.
Shen Baohua frowned. What if they get hungry if they don't eat?
He picked up his teacup, cleared his throat, and said in a slightly softer voice than usual, "It's not bothering me."
After saying that, he took a sip of tea.
Shen Buyu raised an eyebrow, his smile gradually widening.
Now, she expresses her emotions more directly: "I don't mind Grandpa, I like Grandpa."
After that, they continued to listen to the opera and eat pastries.
'I don't mind Grandpa, I like Grandpa.'
The child who said this is currently discussing with the boy next to him what opera is being performed next.
Shen Baohua could count the number of times he cried in his entire life on one hand.
I've only cried once in recent years.
It happened yesterday, after the ceremony where the child was added to the family genealogy.
The child shed tears, and he couldn't help but cry a couple of times as well. Afraid of being seen and laughed at, he quickly went to the back room.
Today, it almost became the second time.
He tried to open his eyes wide, forcing back the tears.
Si Zhendong saw it clearly, leaned over and handed him a tissue, "If you want to cry, then cry. What do they call this? Tears of happiness."
Hearing his old friend's words, Shen Baohua completely stopped crying. "You don't cry even though you don't have a granddaughter, so why should I cry when my granddaughter is so wonderful?"
Si Zhendong: ...
"Magu Presents Longevity." Neither of the two children got it right, so Shen Baohua told his granddaughter directly.
“Oh, that sounds nice,” Shen Buyu said, sitting upright. “Grandpa, my dad has started listening to Peking Opera at home now, and I sometimes listen to a few lines too.”
Shen Baohua nodded. "It's good to be exposed to traditional Chinese culture."
“Buyu, I’ve talked to Jingxu several times about having him bring you home for dinner. When do you have time? There’s so much delicious food at Grandpa’s house.” Si Zhendong, who had been ignored for a while, finally spoke up.
Si Jingxu frowned, displeased with his grandfather's words.
Xiao Yumo is still young and hasn't formally met his parents yet. It wouldn't be good for her to come to their house for dinner as their girlfriend.
He was about to say something to his grandfather.
His little feather smiled and said, "Grandpa Si, thank you, but I'll listen to my grandpa on this matter."
Shen Baohua felt relaxed and comfortable.
His granddaughter is really smart.
A single sentence can turn the tide, and knowing when to ask an adult for help is what sets a child apart from others.
Granddaughter is great, Grandpa can't let her down.
Shen Baohua glanced at Si Zhendong and said, "I have all kinds of good food at home, so I don't need to eat at other people's houses."
