A festive red lantern hung at the door. Xiao Junnian slightly bent his arms and waited for Li Zhi to come up to him like a gentleman.

Li Zhi put his hand on Xiao Junnian's arm, and the two of them stepped into the high threshold of the compound together, and they were greeted by an acquaintance.

When Xiao Huaizhi saw Li Zhi appearing at his home, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Seeing the proud look on Xiao Junnian's face, he knew that this younger brother definitely didn't have any good ideas in his heart.

Xiao Junnian: "Brother, this is my sister, Li Zhi."

The man's eyes fell on Li Zhi's beautiful face, and the other person's eyes were full of smiles, "Mr. Xiao, we meet again."

Xiao Huaishi nodded, "Let's go inside first."

Although the scale of Mr. Xiao's birthday party was not large, the cross-cutting power of the Xiao family was already large. Let's not talk about Mr. Xiao's younger brothers and sisters. His married son and daughter all brought their families. Come here, grandsons, grandsons, grandsons and other juniors.

There are three generations living under the same roof, and there are between 40 and [-] relatives in total. There are four tables in the courtyard of the house.

Xiao Huaishi and Xiao Junnian are both grandsons of Mr. Xiao. Their aunt has a daughter, Xiao Yinyin, but there are many other cousins, including some from their mother's side, with whom they have a good relationship. Some relatives also came to celebrate Mr. Xiao's birthday.

At first glance, it seemed that Li Zhi was the only outsider.

However, Xiao Junnian didn't think there was any problem. He took Li Zhi around the whole process, introduced Li Zhi to his relatives at home, and praised Li Zhi every time he opened his mouth. In short, the Xiao family had a good impression of Li Zhi.

"Auntie, she is the sister who takes special care of me. I just graduated and didn't know anything. It was my sister who hired a teacher to teach me from scratch. Look at my acting skills now, are they really good?"

The woman in comfortable clothes nodded and smiled at Li Zhi, turned around and patted Xiao Junnian on the shoulder and said, "Our family has grown up and will bring friends home. Not bad, very good. Keep it up."

"Uncle, uncle, look who I brought here?" Xiao Junnian smiled with a naive look on his face, "Our boss! Li Zhi! Am I awesome?!"

The man looked upright and looked like an upright person. He nodded, smiled and greeted Li Zhi, "Our young man has a simple heart, and I will ask Miss Li to take good care of him from now on."

Li Zhiye answered them all with a smile.

She had never known that a person's experience could be so exuberant. He almost took her through it in front of half of his relatives.

If Li Zhi hadn't stopped her quickly, Xiao Junnian would have wanted to introduce them all. Not only that, he also planned to take her to another room to continue the introduction.

Facing Li Zhi's tactful rejection, Xiao Junnian looked at Li Zhi with confusion. He really liked her, but he couldn't explain the reason. He liked her inexplicably and wanted to introduce her to his family.

"Then I won't introduce the others. Sister, please follow me to see grandpa. I will give grandpa a birthday gift."

Mr. Xiao's wife passed away a long time ago, and now he lives alone. He has retired a long time ago and spends his days drinking tea and playing with birds. His life is leisurely and comfortable.

house.

Mr. Xiao was sitting in a rocking chair, listening to the Yue opera music from the old radio. It was his wife's favorite song when she was young. Li Zhi didn't know much about it and only knew a little bit about it.

Xiao Junnian took Li Zhi into the house. As soon as he entered the door, he raised his voice and shouted, "Grandpa, look, who is back to see you."

As soon as Mr. Xiao opened his eyes, he heard Xiao Junnian's joyful voice, "It's your precious little grandson who's back~"

The old man looked at Xiao Junnian with loving eyes, but his youthful demeanor could still be seen in the aura around him. When he saw Li Zhi beside Xiao Junnian, he wondered, "Who is this?" Xiao Junnian Nian introduced excitedly, "Grandpa, she is my boss Li Zhi."

Li Zhiye smiled and took the initiative to say hello, "Grandpa Xiao, happy birthday. I'm sorry to bother you today. I heard from Junnian that you like to drink tea. You brought some tea leaves from the tea garden in Hangzhou a few days ago. These tea leaves are from my grandfather's home after he retired. Made by me, I hope you like it.”

At Mr. Xiao's current position, he has never seen any treasures or drank any tea.

Today is his birthday family banquet. Li Zhi will definitely give a gift to express his congratulations when he comes to visit, but he will definitely not accept it if it is too expensive. This tea is produced in the tea garden contracted by Li Jing An Xian Lai.

Gifts without price are also the most priceless.

Mr. Xiao nodded, smiled and asked someone to accept Li Zhi's gift, "Okay, okay, old man, I just want this. Your grandpa and I also knew each other when we were young. Go back and say hello to him for me."

Li Zhi smiled and agreed.

Xiao Junnian took Li Zhi and sat down beside him, inviting her to drink tea and snacks. He then leaned close to Mr. Xiao and whispered, "Grandpa, let me tell you, my boss is great and treats me well." .”

"Let me show you the dormitory arranged by our company. This is our company's cafeteria. Is the food good? I feel that my craftsmanship is no worse than Aunt Wang's. Let me tell you, I am also a rich person now..."

Xiao Junnian kept talking to Mr. Xiao about his interesting stories in the past six months, as well as what he had learned after joining "Fog Star Entertainment" and the new friends he had made. It was obvious to the naked eye that he was in a very good mood.

Once the boy started talking, he didn't stop.

Li Zhi also had a calm temperament. She listened to Xiao Junnian and Mr. Xiao not shying away from her chat, drinking tea quietly, and could pick up the conversation in time when Xiao Junnian brought the topic to her from time to time.

She could tell that Xiao Junnian was helping her.

This young man's exquisite heart was very clear. He might have thought of it as early as when she met him and mentioned his brother Xiao Huaishi.

He was using his own methods to help her expand his family's connections. Thinking of this, Li Zhi couldn't help but sigh. Xiao Junnian trusted someone so easily, and he didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing for him.

Later, other relatives and friends came over to say hello to Mr. Xiao, and Xiao Junnian took Li Zhixian away. Knowing that he had not been back for a long time, she asked him to chat and play with his relatives.

She found a small corner to stay by herself. Looking at the warm reunion of the big family, she missed her mother a little.

What if she could be reborn before her mother passed away?It's a pity that there is no if in life.

Li Zhi was sitting in the garden looking at the sunset. The garden was full of succulents planted by Mr. Xiao. The pots were quite cute under the afterglow. Suddenly, someone sat on the chair next to him.

Xiao Huaizhi's voice was two degrees warmer than before. He also looked at those succulents and said to Li Zhi beside him, "My grandma raised those. After she left, grandpa took good care of her every day. The more you raise, you’ll have a whole yard before you know it.”

He didn't ask why Li Zhi came back with Xiao Junnian. He believed that his brother now had the judgment that an adult should have. He would choose to take Li Zhi home to celebrate his grandfather's birthday. There must be something for him. Logically speaking, even if he is the elder brother, he has no right to interfere.

There is a "click" sound of taking pictures.

Xiao Huaizhi and Li Zhi were brought back from their dazed thoughts while watching the sunset.

Li Zhi turned around and saw a cute girl. The Polaroid camera in her hand was holding up the newly taken photos and said with a smile, "Brother, Sister Li, the back view of the two of you just now The sunset was so beautiful, I couldn’t help but take a photo.”
