Xie Yongliang nodded immediately, "Our grandpa is indeed called Xie Baoguo!"
"No wonder the name Xie Minghui sounds so familiar to me. I must have heard your grandfather Xie Baoguo mention it before! Your grandfather and I were partners during the Three Kingdoms War. I was the regiment commander and he was a committee member. We're old acquaintances!"
After saying this, He Qixiang's face was filled with regret. "What a pity! We've lost contact since the Wenhui Revolution. I haven't seen him in over ten years. I didn't expect my grandson to be this big already!"
Except for Fan Hua who had read the novel in advance and knew the plot, the others were shocked. They did not expect that He Qixiang and Xie Baoguo had such feelings.
Xie Yuchuan said, "Grandpa hasn't been feeling well lately. He's going back to his hometown in Beijing to recuperate. When I come back to Beijing, I'll definitely accompany Grandpa to visit you. I'm sure Grandpa will also be eager to see you, his old comrade!"
He Qixiang laughed heartily and said, "Okay, okay!"
After the few people exchanged greetings, Geng Ailing reminded Fan Hua again not to forget to arrive early on the 20th of the twelfth lunar month to attend her wedding banquet, and then they all got in their cars and drove to their homes.
In order to enjoy family happiness, He Qixiang asked the security guard Xiao Zhou who came with him to take the bus back home by himself. He asked Zhao Yilu to drive in the front, Fan Hua to sit in the passenger seat, and he and the two children sat in the back seat.
He kept teasing Yuanyuan and Xiaoxiao along the way, without any airs of a commander.
"Grandpa, how is my eldest brother's health?" Zhao Yilu asked with concern.
He Xixiang's tone was full of relief. "He's been feeling much better than before, and he hasn't been sick much. I heard that a senior from his school gave him a folk remedy, and he drank it for a while, and it was surprisingly effective. I hardly heard him cough this winter. He was planning to pick you up the other day, but your grandmother saw that it was so cold that day, and she was afraid that he might catch a cold and have trouble recovering, so she refused to let him go out. That's why I came to pick you up!"
Zhao Yilu nodded. "I felt my cough had gotten much better when I spoke to Big Brother on the phone before, but I was busy at the time and didn't ask in detail. If he can recover, that would be great. We'll have to thank the person who provided Big Brother with the prescription later!"
He Qixiang snorted, "Do I need you to remind me, kid? I've already asked your grandma to prepare the thank-you gifts, and I'm just waiting for your big brother to give them to them after the winter break!"
Fan Hua listened silently to the conversation between the grandfather and granddaughter, feeling a little uneasy. If she had known earlier that the child's father was not He Siyan, she would not have hidden it in the beginning, and she could have gained more favor in front of Zhao Yilu's family. She also wondered what kind of fun things the old man had asked her grandmother to prepare for Zheng Ze'an, and whether Zheng Ze'an would share some with her when the time comes.
When Zhao Yilu heard what He Qixiang said, he continued to ask, "When will my grandparents come over?"
When He Xianxiang heard Zhao Yilu mention this, his tone instantly turned bad. "Your grandfather is that stubborn old man. I told you a long time ago to send Xiao Zhou to pick him up, but he refused to come early. He insisted that he would wait until you arrived and then drive to pick them up in person before coming! He is arrogant and likes to show off. He wants to save face. He thinks living with me is like living under someone else's roof. Humph..."
Zhao Yilu smiled and said, "He's not in a hurry to come over because he's afraid that if he comes early, he'll have endless arguments with you. It's okay. Fangxiandu Village is not too far from the district. Lihua and I will drive over to pick him and grandma up tomorrow."
"I don't even bother to argue with him. He just thinks he's a gentleman and is all fussy! He always finds me unsatisfactory and thinks I'm vulgar!"
Fan Hua couldn't help laughing as she listened. In the novels she had read before, He Xiangxiang had seemed quite serious and dignified to Fan Hua. She had never expected that this little old man would have such an interesting temper in the real world.
Novels are just novels after all, and she was badly misled by the crappy author!
Thinking that she would soon meet the male protagonist He Siyan, the author's biological son, Fan Hua couldn't help but feel curious. She didn't know what kind of person He Siyan was in the real world!
Zhao Yilu drove the car to the entrance of an alley and stopped. He said to Fan Hua, "Wife, get ready to get off. The road ahead is narrow and it's difficult to turn around. We need to get off and walk a distance in advance."
He looked around while walking on Fanhua Road. He was very familiar with Beijing because he went to school in Beijing in his previous life. This place was probably on the left side of the Second Ring Road. And it looked like the He family lived in a courtyard house. That would be worth a lot of money in the future!
She got out of the car, opened the back door, and carried Xiaoxiao over. Old Man He also got out, holding Yuanyuan. Zhao Yilu picked up the luggage in one hand and took Xiaoxiao from Fan Hua in the other before leading her forward.
Fan Hua stayed by Zhao's side all the way. It was her first time going home with him, so she felt a little nervous.
Several people walked through an alley about a hundred meters long and finally entered a large courtyard. The courtyard was quite large. The main house had three large rooms and two side rooms, and there were four auxiliary rooms on the east and west sides. Including the courtyard, it was estimated to be about three hundred square meters.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw a neatly dressed, cheerful-looking old lady excitedly walking out of the house. Next to her was a fair-skinned man with slightly long hair, delicate features, and a pair of thin black-framed glasses. Qing Ge looked about 70% like Zhao Yilu, but was thinner than Zhao Yilu. His temperament gave him the air of a man who was three parts cool, three parts gentle, and four parts elegant...
Fan Hua stared at the man in front of her in a daze. It turned out that this was the author's biological son, He Siyan!
This temperament and appearance are simple, the author's description of the dog is indeed not exaggerated, it is indeed cool and elegant!!!
Zhao Yilu caught a glimpse of his wife staring blankly at his elder brother. He unnoticedly put down his bag, held Xiaoxiao in one hand and pulled Fan Hua in the other, and took a half step forward, smiling and greeting the person opposite, "Grandma, elder brother, we're back!"
Fan Hua, who had just come to her senses, immediately followed up with a silly cry, "Grandma, big brother, we're back!"
