Before Yan Ziyuan even approached, he had already imagined the expressions on their faces at the moment.
"Ziyuan, why are you standing here? Why don't you go to the living room?"
Grandma Yan came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of sliced apples.
"I just went upstairs to get a cup for Xiao Yu and was about to go to the living room."
"I haven't seen your grandfather having so much fun with the younger generation in a long time."
"Xiao Yu is a really good girl. Your grandfather and I both like her very much. You must cherish her."
Grandma Yan is already over 70 years old, and she has seen a lot of people. She can tell whether the other person is pretending or being sincere.
She did not feel any desire to please Song Fuyu. Instead, he played with the old man sincerely, treating them as his own elders.
Even the younger generations of their Yan family found it difficult to be like her, being lovable yet not at all disgusting.
This kind of simple character is rare in a girl who grew up in a poor environment.
"I know grandma."
"From the moment I recognized her, I decided to spend the rest of my life with her."
Grandma Yan smiled with satisfaction.
Although the old couple has many grandchildren and tries to treat them equally, it has to be admitted that their favorite grandson is this little grandson.
He and Song Fuyu have one thing in common, that is, they will not try to please them deliberately, but will do so from the bottom of their hearts and sincerely.
I never thought about getting any benefits from them.
Whenever I go home, I will spend time with them, unlike other people who only show up during festivals and birthdays.
"Let's go over and see what the two of them are playing."
"If we don't restrain them, the roof will be destroyed by the noise of these two people."
The scene that Grandma Yan and Yan Ziyuan saw when they arrived in the living room was even more exaggerated than they had expected.
The two men sat on one side, holding chess pieces in their hands, and neither paid any attention to the other.
"What happened to you two?"
"It was raining fine just now, but now it's all gone wrong?"
Grandma Yan placed the plate on the table, sat between the two of them, and asked gently.
"Humph! I won't argue with a little girl like her."
"Grandpa, if you continue like this, you will lose me, your best chess friend."
Grandpa Yan couldn't say anything like "if it's lost, it's lost", so he could only tilt his head and sulk.
"Grandpa, did you bully Xiaoyu?"
Grandpa Yan glanced at his grandson, whose elbow was severely bent outward, and said, "I bullied her? You must be joking!"
"What's wrong with you guys?"
Seeing that Grandpa Yan was angry and silent, Grandma Yan shifted her attention to Song Fuyu.
"I clearly won the game just now, but Grandpa refused to admit it and insisted that he had made a mistake and wanted to regret his move."
"I was mistaken."
"But I'm wrong. It's ok for you to ruin one step, but you have to ruin three steps in a row. How can this be possible!"
"I misread three steps in a row."
"If that's the case, then the game of chess won't be finished in a year."
"Xiao Yu, don't be angry. My grandpa is just an old child. Don't bother with him."
Yan Ziyuan quickly sat beside him and coaxed his partner.
"I'm not angry, I'm just seeking fairness."
"Old man, this is where you're wrong. I stand on Xiao Yu's side this time."
"You're not good at chess to begin with. She let you go, but you pushed for more. If you keep going like this, no one will want to play chess with you."
Grandma Yan immediately stepped forward to seek justice.
The old man usually only reveals his immature and childish side in front of the younger generation he likes.
I was controlled by Ziyuan in the past, but then Ziyuan found a girlfriend. She had only been at home for less than a day and she was controlled by her girlfriend again.
It is destined to be defeated by this young couple.
Seeing that no one stood on his side, Grandpa Yan had no choice but to admit his mistake.
"Okay, you win just now. I won't let you go next time."
"No problem, please show me your real skills!"
Without eating the apples or drinking the milk, the two of them started playing Gobang enthusiastically again as if nothing had happened.
At 8:30 in the evening, it was close to Grandpa Yan's usual bedtime. If Grandma Yan hadn't interrupted them immediately, the two of them would have had no idea what time they would go downstairs.
"That's all for today. I'll compete with you, little girl, tomorrow."
On the way back to the room, Grandpa Yan was still humming a tuneless military song, unable to conceal his good mood.
"Xiao Yu, you are really amazing. You can actually play chess with grandpa for such a long time."
After hearing the sound of the door closing, Yan Ziyuan whispered in Song Fuyu's ear.
"Haha, just for fun?"
"As the saying goes, the older you get, the more you act like a child. Don't treat grandpa as an elder, just treat him like a child."
"Besides, Grandpa is quite cute. He is not as serious as I imagined."
"What you told me before was definitely a lie. I seriously suspect that you told me that because you wanted to damage Grandpa's image."
Yan Ziyuan shook his head helplessly.
This side of my grandfather as a naughty boy was only revealed when I was facing him.
When facing his brothers and sisters, he was still very serious most of the time, which was completely different from just now.
"Drink the milk quickly, it's getting cold."
"I can't drink it, you drink it."
"Do you want to continue growing taller?"
"Even if I can't grow taller, I won't drink it. Who told you to tell the sisters-in-law to give me some meat to eat? I almost got so full tonight that I haven't recovered yet."
"Okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have said it."
"But I've already made it, so you should at least drink a little. Drink as much as you can, and leave the rest to me."
Then Yan Ziyuan saw her take the cup and take a small sip symbolically, really just a small sip.
"I'm done drinking, Comrade Yan. I'll leave the rest to you."
"But don't grow any taller. If you're taller than 1.9 meters, I might only be able to hit your knees when I jump up."
Yan Ziyuan laughed. Why didn’t he realize that his partner was so naughty before?
