The group quickly returned to grandma's house.
My grandmother's house has three floors, the exterior is covered with tiles and the decoration is simple. There is a small courtyard in the front with several grape trees planted under the trellis, under which there is a stone table and several rattan chairs. There are potted plants on both sides, and a sweet-scented osmanthus tree planted next to the gate.
At this time, the whole yard is filled with the fragrant scent of flowers and the fresh smell of grass, which makes people intoxicated. It is believe how comfortable it will be in this small yard when the grapes are ripe.
Lie down under the grape trellis, sway your body in the rattan chair, close your eyes and enjoy the cool breeze, your ears are filled with the wonderful music of nature, open your eyes, stretch out your hand or stand up slightly to pick the pure natural green and delicious grapes.
Lin Zhizhi could feel the cleanliness and tidiness of the whole house just by looking inside from the gate of the courtyard. She could imagine without going further inside that the inside was also kept clean and tidy by her grandmother.
Lin Zhizhi helped Lu Yi take the gifts and nutritional supplements he bought for his grandmother out of the car, but Lu Yi carried them all by himself, with his hands full.
Lin Zhizhi looked at these gifts and sighed that she should have bought more earlier. However, she didn't know that so many people would come to greet her. It seems that she will have to buy some more gifts in a few days and send them to these relatives one by one.
Seeing this, grandma hurried forward to help take it, but Lu Yi didn't let her take it. He glanced at Lin Zhizhi and said to her, "Grandma, these were bought for you by Zhizhi herself."
Regardless of Lu Yi's concession, the grandmother took the two gift boxes from Lu Yi's hand. When she heard the words and looked at the gifts, her face was full of smiles, but she said to Lin Zhizhi, "Zhizhi, kid, why did you buy so many? Why would an old lady drink the milk that children drink? What a waste of money."
"Grandma, this milk can be drunk by both children and adults. It is nutritious. Besides, it is our duty to honor you. How can we waste it?"
As Lin Zhizhi was speaking, she saw her grandmother holding two gift boxes in one hand and hurriedly wanted to take them, but her grandmother refused.
Lin Zhizhi and her grandmother started the push-pull scene that often occurs among Chinese relatives during the Chinese New Year before they even officially entered the house.
In the end, two female elders came out from the group of relatives who had been watching the show with laughter for a long time and jokingly took the two gift boxes. Neither Lin Zhizhi nor her grandmother took any.
Grandma was also a little embarrassed, so she quickly changed the subject and pulled Lin Zhizhi inside to introduce the home's layout.
Finally, a familiar scene appeared again. A group of people walked in one after another, with women following first and men following behind.
When the cousins of the same generation as Lu Yi passed by him, they patted his shoulders one after another, and then followed the main group in a casual manner, but the smiles on their faces were as annoying as they could be, and some of them were even happily hugging each other's shoulders.
After all the cousins went in one by one, only the cousins younger than Lu Yi were left.
Lu Yi's eyes met the two little rascals in front of him. Seeing that they were not leaving for a long time, he smiled with relief and was about to move his hand in front of the two little rascals, but he hadn't spoken yet.
The two little rascals took a big step back at the same time and in tacit understanding.
The smile on Lu Yi's lips froze.
Is this seriously a big step back?
Is it because we haven't seen each other for too long? Or is it that my smile is not friendly enough?
Lu Yi took a deep breath, continued to smile, and said softly, "Little cousin, did the teacher teach you to help others?"
The two little rascals looked at each other, then at Lu Yi. One of them nodded honestly, but before he could speak, the other pulled him aside and spoke first, "The teacher also taught us to respect the old and love the young. Cousin, you are not old, but we are young, so we don't have to respect the old, but you have to love the young."
As he spoke, he sighed earnestly like an old man, "Cousin, you don't understand the principles that we elementary school students understand, alas..."
He was still shaking his head in a serious manner.
The first little kid nodded his head like a fanboy, "Cousin, you are not good. Are you not paying attention in class? The teacher said that students who don't pay attention in class are not good students."
Lu Yi: “…”
Then the two little rascals walked in side by side.
Lu Yi also heard the little kid behind him ask, "Brother, my cousin is older than us, doesn't that mean he is older than us? Why do you say my cousin is not old?"
“…”
"Brother? Why don't you speak? Why?"
"…Because, because my cousin is as strong as an ox, he has great strength, so he never ages."
Lu Yi: Should I thank you or thank you?
So it’s better to have a warm and cozy little cotton jacket. My son is just a little cotton jacket that leaks air and makes me feel very cold.
Lu Yi stood there and for some reason he suddenly felt as if his collar was leaking air, and he felt a little cold. Lu Yi shivered unconsciously, then quickly came to his senses and strode into the house.
At this time, Lin Zhizhi, who was sitting on the wooden sofa in the living room holding her grandmother's hand, looked at the person in front of her and couldn't help but sigh that this family tradition was really good.
