She quickly stopped talking and turned around to look at Zhang Jingyu in confusion.
"My hair is a ss." Zhang Jingyu smiled again as he reached out to help Gu nianjia brush away the loose strands of hair on her forehead.
Gu nianjia roughly understood what Zhang Jingyu ant. Sotis, elderly people were like children who were competitive. While children were not willing to lose to adults, elderly people would not be willing to give the ga to young people, especially when it ca to such a simple and childish ga.
If he pretended not to rember, then so be it.
When she was playing gas with Lin Xiaoyu at ho, she would always give in to him. In fact, it was especially obvious. The little fellow had naively thought that he was really that good and was overjoyed.
As Gu nianjia thought about it, she hurriedly picked up the dice and handed them to Grandpa Gu."I can't rember either. Grandpa, why don't you try again?"
Grandpa Shen took the dice from Gu nianjia and rolled again.
Right then, soone entered the room. Gu nianjia turned around to see that it was Zhang Jingyu's father. He was wearing a down jacket and his feet were covered in snow. It seed like he had rushed over.
He was holding two bottles of expensive wine.
Zhang Heng's father entered the house and looked at old man sun with a fawning smile."Dad!"
The old man didn't seem to hear him and was seriously playing Chinese Checkers according to the number of steps on the dice he rolled.
Mr. Zhang shouted at the door again, but the old man still didn't respond.
Gu nianjia frowned as she whispered into Zhang Jingyu's ear,""Is your grandfather deaf?"
"Shush!" Zhang Jingyu imdiately used his finger to seal Gu nianjia's mouth.
He used his eyes to signal her not to speak.
He even glanced at the old master, obviously hinting at sothing.
Gu nianjia finally understood what was going on. Grandpa Zhang was pretending not to hear her. It seed like he had sothing against Mr. Zhang.
However, the old man had already heard what she had said to Zhang Jingyu. He threw the Chinese Checkers in his hand onto the chessboard and snorted coldly.""I used to be an investigator. I can hear even the slightest movent."
Gu nianjia's face was burning with embarrassnt as she pouted and looked at Grandpa Shen timidly.
Teacher Sun chided the old man in a soft voice,"dad, you should lower your voice when talking to the child. You will scare him."
Gu nianjia's grandfather did not seem to care at all.""I saw how brave she was when she quarreled with Cheng Cheng just now. I don't think she'd be scared even if an atomic bomb exploded."
Gu nianjia was speechless.
Did this old man eat gunpowder?
Or was he actually a gunpowder soldier when he was in the Army?
Zhang Heng's father had already arrived in front of the old man with two bottles of wine, but the old man still didn't look at him.
His uncle and aunt, who were busy in the kitchen, ca out at this ti.
When they saw Zhang xianlong, the couple greeted him warmly,"my sister and brother-in-law, you're both here. It's about ti for dinner."
His uncle and aunt were both wearing glasses. One look and you could tell that they were quiet and cultured people.
This was especially so for his youngest aunt, who was in her fifties. She was wearing a plain-colored sweater and an apron. She had the temperant of soone from a high-ranking and scholarly family, but she also had the virtuous aura of a stay-at-ho woman.
When the couple ca out, they finally gave Zhang xianlong a way out.
Zhang xianlong smiled and nodded at them. Then, he placed the wine in his hand on the coffee table.
The old man still did not look at him. He stood up with his walking stick and walked to the kitchen.
After taking a few steps, he seed to have recalled sothing.""Child, co and eat with us."
