Dudu's Diary - Chapter 29: Grandpa And Aunt

The car drove from Panshan Road to the villa halfway up the mountain, entered through the gate, then turned to a path, and soon stopped in front of one of the villas.

As soon as the car stopped, the door of the villa opened, and a middle-aged woman of about forty or fifty appeared at the door. When she saw the car, she greeted it with joy and rubbed her hands excitedly.

Yuan Long was the first to open the door and get out of the car and shouted to the woman, "Aunt Lian."



"Hey." Aunt Lian kept nodding, but her eyes looked hard into the car, hoping to get her head in. "You're back at last, where is the young master? Are you there? Where is he? "

Yuan Long couldn't help laughing. Another one is after Dudu. Looking at the appearance of Aunt Lian, it's estimated that she is not much better than the old man.

Knowing that Aunt Lian was anxious to see Dudu, Yuan Long opened the rear door and took Dudu out of the child seat first. pointing to Aunt Lian, she said to him, "Dudu, this is my Aunt. Greet her."

Dudu was drinking milk, and there was a circle of milk beard on the side of his mouth. He immediately put down the milk and grinned at Aunt Lian. "Hello, Aunt, I'm Dudu," he said in a milky voice.

Aunt Lian looked at this round little boy with exquisite eyebrows and eyes, who was even prettier than the little golden boy under Guanyin.

So Dudu is supposedly cuter than that kid

Her old heart was conquered at once, and she unconsciously opened her hands and wanted to hug the little guy. "Good boy, why are you so cute? Come on, how about this Aunt hug our little baby?"

Dudu looked at her father's Aunt as if he also liked her appearance. He was not afraid. He opened his hands and threw himself into the arms of his Aunt. In order to show that he also liked her very much, the little fellow took a heavy sip of incense on her cheek and put all the milk in his mouth on her cheek.

Aunt Lian did not mind at all, but was instead overjoyed. The old heart was about to be softened by the little fat man into a pool of water. She could not help but gently kissed the little guy's white and tender face, and almost cried excitedly.

Yuan Long and Yu Shanshan looked at each other, and they both thought to themselves, "well, that's another one who's fascinated by the little fat man."

Fearing that Aunt Lian will be too excited, Yuan Long had to interrupt the intimacy of the lady and the young man, and introduced Yu Shanshan, who was standing by, "Aunt Lian, this is Shanshan."

Yu Shanshan had already heard Yuan Long say that Aunt Lian had brought him to her big Aunt since he was a child, and was very kind to him, just like his mother, so she had great respect for Aunt Lian and was the first to say hello: "Hello, Aunt Lian. My name is Yu Shanshan."

Aunt Lian was stunned when she saw Yu Shanshan. Her first reaction was surprise. After all, she had been guessing in her mind for a long time what kind of girl Yuan Long would bring back, but she never thought it would be Yu Shanshan. The girl is big.......What a blessing.

However, Aunt Lian soon recovered. No matter whether Yu Shanshan is fat or thin, she's full of affection for the girl. After all, she gave birth to Yuan Long's child, and the child's so lovely that it was simply a great contributor to the Yuan family. It was too late for her to like it. As for the problem of fat and thin, as Long as Yuan Long likes it, what do these outsiders care?

"Oh, she's such a good girl, and she's so lucky." Aunt Lian immediately smiled and changed to hold Dudu in one hand, and the other hand went to pull Yu Shanshan's hand and said affectionately, "if you are tired from the ride, hurry up and go in with Aunt Lian. Aunt Lian will cook delicious food for you at noon."

Yu Shanshan thought Aunt Lian was surprised to see her body shape, but she didn't think she was so enthusiastic, as if she didn't care about her weight and thinness. This made her heart, which she had been carrying, fall down, not so nervous.

Aunt Lian smiled from ear to ear and eagerly said to Yuan Long and Yu Shanshan, "Let's hurry in. The old man got up early in the morning and has been waiting for you to get home. I'm not even in the mood for morning exercise this morning. I'm glad to know you're back."

Yuan Long thought that Dudu was a little heavy and wanted to take over. As a result, Aunt Lian refused to let go of her arms and walked very fast. Soon she left Yuan Long and Yu Shanshan behind. She rushed into the house first and rushed into the house. As soon as she entered, she shouted to Yuan, who was sitting on the sofa pretending to read the newspaper: "Master, I'm back. Please look at our young master!"

Father Yuan could not sit still for a long time. Although he had a newspaper in his hand, he could not read a word. Now when he heard Aunt Lian say that someone was coming, he brushed the newspaper down and looked straight at Aunt Lian with sparkling eyes.

When he saw the Dudu in Aunt Lian's arms, he could no longer be calm and quickly got up to meet him. his eyes were fixed on Dudu's face for a moment without moving.

Aunt Lian knew how much the old man was looking forward to seeing this little great-grandson, and although she was reluctant to Dudu, she handed the little guy to the old man, "Old man, look, this is the young master of our family. He's so cute."

The old man took Dudu into his arms and looked at the little guy's eyebrow curiously. he couldn't help laughing and said to Dudu, "Dudu, I'm grandpa."

It turns out that this is a great grandfather who likes himself very much. After knowing who the other party was, Dudu's eyes lit up, immediately put his arms around Grandpa's neck, gave the old man a kiss on the face, and shouted milkily, "Grandpa, Dudu likes you, too."

The old man was used to being serious all his life, and he didn't have much tenderness for his son, daughter, or even grandson, so the children in the family respect him more than they are close to him, and seldom do anything intimate with him, let alone give him a kiss.

The old man had never been kissed by a child in his life. He suddenly froze. It took a few seconds for him to come back to his senses. Suddenly, his heart was full of tenderness and joy that he wanted to hold the little man to his heart.

The old man couldn't help kissing the little guy's face with trembling head, kissing the milk fragrance full of nose, and then touching the little head in his arms curiously. His mouth was also very rare and kept shouting: "My little darling."

Yuan Long and Yu Shanshan, which have been ignored since they came in: ...... Have they just been ignored?

The two looked at each other and were a little helpless about the charm of the little fat man.

Yuan Long whispered in Shanshan's ear, "This is the first time I've seen Grandpa show such a gentle expression. When I was a child, he even whipped me."

Yu Shanshan thought that she still underestimated the charm of her little fat man. Look at this posture, the little fat man is going to become a middle-aged and elderly killer, and he will be able to win the heart of the middle-aged and elderly group in one fell swoop.

Seeing that it was impossible for him to be greeted on his own initiative, Yuan Long had to pull Yu Shanshan forward to take the initiative to brush the sense of existence, "Grandpa, we're back."

The old man, who was holding his little great-grandson, finally remembered that there was someone else and looked up at them, but he skipped Yuan Long to look at Yu Shanshan. Seeing that the girl was round, moist and chubby, he could not help nodding to himself. He thought that the vision of the grandson was very good, and the wife he was looking for was very blessed. Finally, he didn't find him a daughter-in-law who could poke people to death in the jaw. At last, he did not find a grandson's wife who could stab the dead with her chin.

The old man smiled and nodded to Shanshan. "Shanshan, right? Not bad. She's a lucky girl."

Yu Shanshan, who has been praised as blessed once again:.....To confirm if she is blessed, isnt it to point out if she is fat or not?

But the old man's attitude was quite unexpected. He seemed to like her very much. do old people like fat girls? But in any case, this is good for her, ah, it seems that there will not be any good plot, she was really overthinking before.

Most of the nervousness in Yu Shanshan's heart had disappeared. She couldn't help but turn to look at Yuan Long and give him a big smile.

Yuan Long also raised the corners of his mouth, took her by the hand, and took her to sit down on the sofa.

At this time, Aunt Lian took two boxes and handed them to the old man. After the old man took it, he took out a jade bracelet from one of the boxes and solemnly handed it to Yu Shanshan. "this is a welcome gift for you for the first time, and we will be a family from now on."

Although Yu Shanshan didn't do much research on jade, just by looking at the quality of the bracelet and the father's solemn attitude, he knew it was no ordinary bracelet. He turned to Yuan Long and asked him with his eyes if he could accept it.

Yuan Long nodded slightly and said, "this is the relic of my grandmother, worn by our wives of the Yuan family. Now Grandpa gave it to you, so take it."

Worn by successive wives? Yu Shanshan was surprised. Pops officially admitted her identity.

There were bursts of joy in her heart. Yu Shanshan solemnly and carefully took the bracelet and thanked the old man: "Thank you, Grandpa."

The old man waved his hand, "What thank you? Our family should thank you, you gave birth to this family's Dudu, those years with Dudu you even have to endure hardships. This Grandpa wants to thank you."

Yuan Long had already told the old man exactly what had happened to Yu Shanshan in the past few years. The old man taught Yuan Long a lesson at that time, and he felt guilty about Shanshan, and he wanted to compensate the mother and son as much as possible.

Since the expected dislike and dissatisfaction did not happen, but was instead solemnly thanked by the old man, Shanshan was suddenly a little at a loss and did not know what to say. But also because of this, the last trace of anxiety in her heart completely disappeared, and the whole person relaxed and even breathed smoothly.

It seems that she doesn't have to rely on the face of her fat boy.

Dudu sat in the arms of Father Yuan and saw that Grandpa gave his mother a bracelet. Curious, he leaned out and tried to reach the bracelet with a small hand.

Yu Shanshan quietly moved the bracelet away a little bit: It was made of jade. If a little guy played with it and one of his mistakes might break this family heirloom, she would be a sinner and must not let the little fat man play.

Although Father Yuan was talking, he kept glancing at Dudu, saw him probing the ground to reach the bracelet. He smiled, took out another box and opened it. He took out a jade pendant in the shape of a safe lock, tied with a red rope.

The old man hung the pendant around Dudu's neck.

"Why?" Dudu saw that he also had it, and immediately lost interest in his mother's bracelet. He bowed his head and touched his little safe lock, laughing so hard that he could not see his teeth. "Is it mine?"

The old man nodded, "It's yours, Dudu. Take good care of it in the future. Don't lose it."

Dudu immediately puffed his little head and promised, "I promise I wouldn't lose it."

The little guy was overjoyed that he finally wore a pendant for the first time without growing older. He raised his pendant and kissed it. He looked up to his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, I think my stone is the most beautiful. It's prettier than the little monkey and the little pig."

The old man didn't quite understand what the little guy meant, so he asked, "Who is the little monkey? Who is piggy? "

"The little monkey and the little pig are nobody." Dudu seriously explained to Grandpa: "Little monkey is a stone, little pig is also a stone, mine is also a stone."

"Oh, I see." The old man finally understood and asked with a smile, "Your stone is better than the little monkey and the little pig, isn't it?"

Dudu is very confident, "Yes! My stone is the most beautiful."

Yu Shanshan certainly knew what her fat son meant. It turned out that many children in the community and kindergarten would have pendants around their necks, some jade, some gold, generally carved into the child's zodiac animal, monkeys, pigs, etc. Dudu had approached her before and asked him why he had no monkeys and pigs, and she told him that she'll buy him one when he turns five years old.

Now that the little guy has one in advance, he is so happy that he thinks his pendant is the most beautiful, which is prettier than that of other children. Of course, the little guy does not know what is good or bad, hia pure self-confidence is blindly inflated. But Yu Shanshan thinks that the little guy should be correct this time, looking at the appearance of this piece of jade, it really does not look like ordinary goods.

Taking advantage of the gap when old man took Dudu to the back garden, Yu Shanshan quietly approached Yuan Long and whispered, "Was that also a family heirloom? Isn't it expensive?"

Yuan Long also approached her and replied, "It's not a family heirloom. It was bought by the old man a few years ago, just for his future great-grandson. The jade used in the pendant is a rare one in a thousand years. There are no more than three pieces in China. The old man specially asked someone to get one, and found the most professional sculptor in the country. It took a year to carve it meticulously. "

The old man is frugal all his life and never spends a lot of money, nor does he ask people to find relationships at will. But he doesn't hesitate to spend a lot of money and owes countless favors for such a pendant.

Yu Shanshan was dumbfounded. She couldn't help staring at the pendant on the little fat man's neck. She always felt that it was not a pendant. It was simply a mine.

Did her little fat man get rich overnight?

I want to hold his fat legs.

It seems that the fat son is really going to take her to fly in the future.

While Yu Shanshan was dreaming that her fat son was flying with her, the roar of a sports car suddenly interrupted her thoughts, and then a woman with short linen hair, at least eight centimeters of high heels and a professional OL-style dress came in from outside the gate.

As soon as the woman came in, she asked, "Is Yuan Long back yet?"

Yuan Long pulled Yu Shanshan to stand up and greet the visitor, "Auntie."

Instead of looking at Yuan Long, Yuan Miao looked directly at Yu Shanshan, who was standing next to Yuan Long. She glanced around her, frowned and asked Yuan Long unbelievably, "Is that her?"

Yuan Long nodded, took Yu Shanshan by the hand and introduced her, "Shanshan, this is my Aunt."

Yu Shanshan had an intuition that there was something wrong with the way the Aunt looked at herself, but she still greeted the person obediently.

Yuan Miao frowned even tighter, glared at Yuan Long and said with dissatisfaction, "Are you kidding me?"

Yuan Long pressed his eyebrow and said, "Auntie!"

Seeing that Yuen Long would be unhappy, Yuan Miao reluctantly swallowed the criticism she was about to blurt out and waved her hand. "I can't do what you asked me to do. You're embarrassing me. Do something about it yourself."

Yuen Long pursed his lips.

Yu Shanshan had no idea what the two were talking about. Confused, she pulled the corner of Yuan Long's clothes and secretly asked, "What's the matter?"

Yuan Long took her hand and squeezed it, indicating that it was all right, and continued to say to Yuan Miao, "You promised me, you have to keep your word."

Yuan Miao sat down on the sofa and stared at him again. "But you never told me that....."

Yuan Miao's last word went unspoken upon seeing Yuan Long's eyes. She shut up and simply took out her mobile phone to deal with official business. She didn't want to talk to Yuan Long.

At this time, Dudu ran in with a big yellow sunflower picked from the garden like a small whirlwind, ran directly to Shanshan and tiptoed the flowers to her. "Beautiful mother, I'm sending you a flower, great-grandfather picked it for me."

Yu Shanshan was about to bend down to pick it up, but Dudu took the flowers back and waved a small hand to her. "Mom, you bow your head, I'll be the one to put it on your hair. It looks good."

Yu Shanshan:. What kind of aesthetic is this? A sunflower head?

Yu Shanshan wanted to laugh at the aesthetic standard of this little fat man, but seeing the way the old man looked at them happily behind him, she had to swallow the ridicule in her mouth silently, thinking that she could not destroy her good mother image in front of him for the time being, so she had to bend down with humiliation and keep her head down.

The little fat man immediately happily inserted a large sunflower into his mother's braided hair, then clapped his hands and boasted in admiration: "Mom is beautiful! You are the prettiest girl! "

Yu Shanshan's head was covered with a big yellow sunflower, and she could not help thinking, whose aesthetic appreciation did this little fat man of her family follow?

"pfft--" Yuan Miao, who was still looking at the phone, suddenly laughed, threw the phone away, and looked at Dudu with green eyes, like a hungry wolf that suddenly saw a cute little lamb, "Whose little darling is this?"
