The driver got out of the car and opened the back door.

A man dressed in a suit and with a serious air came out.

Zhan Lianshi looked at the open door, the neatly tended flowers, plants and trees in the courtyard, and stepped inside.

The servant received Hou Shude's instructions and paid attention to the outside. When Zhanlian time arrived, he immediately informed her.

Now, when Zhan Lianshi walked in, the servant happened to come out and saw Zhan Lianshi at a glance.

The servant hurried to the kitchen, "Old madam, Mr. Zhan is here!"

In the kitchen, Hou Shude and Liu Yumin were preparing lunch, which was Zhan Lianshi's favorite food and was cooked by Hou Shude himself.

And Liu Yumin just helped her.

Now hearing the servant's voice, Hou Shude's hand holding the plate trembled, and then he clenched it tightly, "Why are you so surprised?

Forgot the rules?"

Hou Shude turned around and looked majestically at the servant who ran in.

The servant immediately stood up properly, lowered his head and said, "Yes, I will go and serve tea to Mr. Zhan."

"Um."

The servant leaves.

Liu Yumin looked at Hou Shude, with a smile on her face.

He was obviously very happy, but he kept a straight face in order not to mess up.

Her mother is really sad and cute.

Liu Yumin took the dish from Hou Shude's hand and said, "Lian Shi is here to see you. You go, and I will do the rest."

Hou Shude did not refuse this time, "Serve it when it's ready."

"OK."

Hou Shude went out. This time, she took every step very steadily without trembling at all.

However, Hou Shude did not go directly to the living room, but went upstairs to the bedroom to tidy up after himself.

The Liu family has a strict family tradition and many rules. As an elder, Hou Shude never slacks off.

Even at this moment, when she desperately wanted to see Zhan Lian, she wanted to know the news about Liu Yuwen.

Zhan Lianshi sat on the agarwood chair in the living room. The servant came over with tea and placed it in front of him. "Mr. Zhan, please wait a moment. The old lady will be here shortly."

"Um."

The servant bowed his head and left.

Zhan Lian was sitting in a chair. He did not drink tea. He looked at a landscape painting hanging in front of him.

"Lian Shi, look at what's in this painting?"

"Mountains, water, trees."

"What else?"

"sun."

"What else?"

"..." "Hahaha, can't you see it?

There are clouds inside, look, here they are."

The wrinkled fingers pointed at the painting, and a pair of eyes looked at him lovingly.

Such a pair of eyes, bright and lively, remain the same even though he has grown old.

Suddenly, Zhan Lianshi remembered another pair of eyes.

That year, that glance, he was upstairs and she was downstairs.

She smiled, and her eyes were as bright as stars.

It turns out that she is so similar to these eyes.

Hou Shude tidied up and settled down.

There was no mess in her body, hair, or facial expression. She was neat and tidy, and there was no difference in her appearance at all.

When Zhan Lian heard the sound, his eyes moved and he looked over.

A smile appeared on Hou Shude's face, kind and kind.

"Lian Shi is here?"

Zhan Lianshi stood up and looked at Hou Shude, "Grandma De."

"Eh.

Haha, sit down."

Hou Shude came over and sat at the front seat.

Zhan Lian sat down.

Hou Shude looked at him carefully, then frowned slightly and said, "Why do you think this kid of yours is so thin?"

When Zhan Lian looked at this face, it was exactly the same as in his memory, but as time passed, more and more traces were left behind.

"Not thin."

His voice was still low, no different from usual.

Hou Shude listened to his words and shook his head helplessly, "You kid, you often tell the truth."

As he spoke, the servant brought tea.

Hou Shude said: "Try this tea, I made it, and see if it tastes good."

"Um."

Zhan Lianshi picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

It's slightly astringent in the mouth, then sweet.

Zhan Lianshi put down the tea cup.

Hou Shude asked, "How is it? Is it still to your liking?"

Zhan Lianshi looked at Hou Shude and said, "Not bad."

"Haha, I knew you kid would answer like this."

"However, I drink this tea well. Although it is different from ordinary tea, I like it very much."

"I have prepared them for your grandpa. He has been clamoring to drink the tea I made before. Let him drink enough this time."

Sentence by sentence, Hou Shude spoke more and more.

Zhan Lianshi didn't say much. He occasionally responded, but his eyes were always on Hou Shude's face, looking at the kind face.

Some words are not so easy to say.

Some words are not so dare to be heard.

Time passed little by little, and Liu Yumin and the servant laid out lunch and came over, "Haha, Lianshi, do you have breakfast?"

Zhan Lianshi looked at Liu Yumin, who was walking towards him with a smile, and opened his lips, "Auntie."

"Eh."

Liu Yumin came to Hou Shude's side and said, "Mom, it's all done."

Hou Shude nodded and looked at Zhan Lian, "Let's go, Grandma De made your favorite dish."

"good."

Several people went to the dining room and sat down.

Hou Shude brought vegetables to Zhan Lian and said, "Grandma De remembers that you loved eating this shredded bamboo shoot when you were a child. Try it and see if it tastes the same as before."

Zhan Lianshi picked up the bowl and took it, "Thank you."

"Haha, try it quickly."

Zhan Lianshi looked at the tender white green bamboo shoots in the bowl, picked them up and ate them. He chewed them carefully and tasted the flavor of the bamboo shoots.

Hou Shude looked at him with expectant eyes.

"How about it?"

Zhan Lianshi looked at her, "The taste hasn't changed."

"Haha, that's good."

"Here, eat more."

Hou Shude was picking up vegetables for Zhan Lian, this one, that one, just like before.

Liu Yumin knew that her parents liked Zhan Lian, so she kept smiling and said nothing.
