Chapter 114: Dad Xia Helps (15)
"Xiuyue, what's the point of looking for me so early, don't tell me that you are only four months old and going to give birth prematurely..."

Meng Xiuyue heard the sleepiness in Xia Tong's voice, thought for a while and decided to get straight to the point, "Your grandfather disappeared, and he disappeared early in the morning."

"En." Xia Tong nodded, "Don't old people like to go out for a walk, probably for a walk in the village, and they should go back later."

"Yesterday our neighbor, Grandma Rong, saw you, and then your grandfather asked me, and I accidentally slipped the tongue."

"So..." Xia Tong suddenly opened his eyes wide, "You mean, grandpa came to our place?"

Meng Xiuyue glanced at the clock, "It's 07:30 now, and the intercity bus seems to start leaving at six o'clock. If he really goes to your place, I don't think it will be long before he arrives. You know, this morning There will be no traffic jams in the city at this time..."

Xia Tong felt her heart tremble. Usually, it takes about an hour and a half to drive to my hometown by car. The bus that the old man takes directly may be a little slower, but it is only two hours. At that time, my father had just left home. At work, my mother was cleaning up the mess with Xu Muyun.

Xia Tong's drowsiness completely disappeared, "Are you sure grandpa is here? Does he know the way?"

Meng Xiuyue sighed at the other end, "Just now your uncle said that the old man asked specifically last night. He didn't say what he was doing, but asked him to tell him what kind of car he would make to your house. It is said that he even drew a blueprint on purpose, so he shouldn't get lost."

The last glimmer of hope was ruthlessly shattered, Xia Tong sighed, "I see, thank you for disclosing the information on purpose, the party, the country and the people will remember you, I'll think of countermeasures first."

Hanging up the phone, Xia Tong really felt a headache. When the old man won't come, he will come at this time. At that time, there will only be my mother and Xu Muyun at home, and they are both easy-going. Ruoman doesn't know when he will come back. Now It's only been more than a month, and it's another troublesome thing if I get startled.

Kicking off his slippers, he entered the kitchen and saw that only his mother was cooking, and smiled with satisfaction, "Well, mother, I will tell you something later, you must calm down!"

Seeing Xia Tong pretending to be mysterious, Liu Fanlian couldn't help laughing, "Tell me, what can make me not calm when you are idle at home all day?"

Xia Tong sighed and honestly reported the situation he got from Meng Xiuyue. Sure enough, his smiling face changed from sunny to cloudy overnight.

"You mean your grandpa will be here in about half an hour."

Xia Tong nodded. "If my sister-in-law guessed correctly, it's also possible that grandpa has gone somewhere else."

"But." Liu Fanlian frowned, "Obviously we said we were going to buy land in the village, but your grandfather refused to live or die. Now, what is he doing here after hearing the news of our buying land? And If he wanted to come, according to his temperament, he should have come yesterday, how could he come so early in the morning."

"Actually, I thought of a possibility." After thinking about it, Xia Tong decided to do his best. After all, this matter is likely to be related to the vital interests of his family. .”

Liu Fanlian simply turned off the fire and looked at Xia Tong, "If he came while your father was around, then there must be something wrong, and he knew I would never handle it, so he pointed at your father's filial piety."

"That's what I thought too." Xia Tong looked at Liu Fanlian, "Should we let Dad go to work and deal with him by ourselves, or..."

"Tongtong, call your father's work directly now, and simply ask for leave to see what he wants to do here today." By the way, Liu Fanlian thought about it and leaned into Xia Tong's ear, "..."

"Old Xia, I asked Xia Tong to ask for leave from your unit just now, so you don't have to hurry to go to work today. You haven't had a lot of rest these days because of the things in the field. It's just that today you Also take a vacation to watch TV and chat at home."

Xia Zhongzhou was eating, and was almost spit out by Liu Fanlian's words, "What did you just say?"

"You must have heard what my mother said. This is also the result of our discussion. Anyway, I also took your leave. It will have the same effect whether you go or not." Xia Tong took a sip of rice porridge leisurely, um, Xu Muyun today The porridge cooked by yourself is really different.

"Yes, Lao Xia, you can't just be busy outside all day and ignore your home. We are all at this age, and it's meaningless to judge the best. It's better to enjoy life more." Cooperate fully with their demands.

"Okay, okay." Xia Zhongzhou sighed, "I don't know what you guys want to do, just take a rest, anyway, if you can't make money, you are the ones to worry about."

Seeing that the goal was achieved, Xia Tong smiled with satisfaction, and the doorbell rang at this time, her smile became brighter, Dad, you will know our goal soon.

"Old Xia, you are the closest to the door, go and open the door."

Seeing his wife speak, Xia Zhongzhou stood up in a daze, looked out through the cat's eyes, and immediately understood the reason for these people's eccentricities.

"Dad, why are you here today?"

Xia Zhongzhou smiled and handed over the slippers. Grandpa Xia squinted his eyes and walked in with his shoes on. "In just a few years in the city, I have developed a lot of messy habits. Why is a big man so particular about it all day long!"

Xia Zhongzhou followed with a dry laugh and closed the door, looking at the footprints on the ground and looking at his wife with guilt.Liu Fanlian mopped the floor every morning, and it wasn't dry yet, and when Grandpa Xia walked over, there were patches of imprints.

Liu Fanlian saw that Grandpa Xia came at this time according to their guess, and although she was a little displeased, she still didn't say anything, "Dad, you came so early, you probably haven't eaten yet, it just so happened that today's home cooking Porridge, Tongtong, hurry up and get a bowl for your grandpa."

Xia Tong responded and went into the kitchen, and after a while brought a big bowl full of porridge, "Grandpa, try it, this porridge is Aunt Xu's specialty."
