Guangzhou, Zhusigang Community.

Like Chen Zhu’s Donghu Beiyuan Community, this is also an old community from the 1990s.

However, because it is located in Yuexiu and has a unique school district location, even Zhixin Middle School, one of the four famous schools, is included.

So until 2020, the housing prices of these "old and broken" homes remain high.

There is a small three-bedroom house in Zhusigang, which is Yu Xian's home in Guangzhou. It is also the most valuable material inheritance left to her by Yu Xian's mother.

Likewise, this is something that Tang Xiangyue covets with drool.

In fact, it has nothing to do with her, but people are just greedy like that.

I thought that by marrying Yu Xiaoliang, I had the right to dictate this house and even Yu Xian's future marriage.

After eating hotpot in Guangmei, Yu Xian wanted to go home to see his grandma.

After being in the capital for so long, even though he called every day and Yu Xiaoliang came over every once in a while, Yu Xian was still uneasy.

Chen Zhu naturally accompanied Yu Xian back to Zhusigang Community, which he was very familiar with now.

In other words, any boy who is in love may be more familiar with the surroundings of his girlfriend's home for a while than the surroundings of his own home.

Now around 9pm, there are still quite a lot of people in the community.

The aunts who had just finished dancing in the square were walking home in groups;

Passing by the central square of the community, there were some children playing roller skating;

In the fitness lounge area, several old men were sitting there smoking cigarettes and discussing international political affairs loudly.

Under the illumination of bright street lights, you can vaguely see the excited expressions on the faces of the old men, and the cigarette butts waving in their hands are like guns with sparks, eager to hit American imperialism and capitalism one by one.

Ordinary and lively, complementing the starry sky;

Important matters of family and country are connected with thousands of lights in the world.

"I think your community has always been so smoky."

Chen Zhu said with a smile.

"Of course."

Yu Xian pointed to the shop stalls in the community: "It's more lively during the summer vacation. If there's any World Cup or European Cup, the door will be full of people."

As he was talking, an old lady holding her grandson passed by. She suddenly stopped and said, "Sister Xian, what have you been up to these days? I haven't seen you for so long."

"Speaking in Sichuan and Chongqing dialect, are you from my hometown?"

Chen Zhu thought to himself.

"Mr. Qian, I went to the capital to study."

Yu Xian bent his long and charming eyes and replied crisply.

"The capital~"

A look of longing suddenly appeared on Granny Qian's face: "I went to Tiananmen many years ago and saw the portrait of Chairman Mao..."

In the hearts of the older generation, it seems that the capital is a powerful spiritual belief, and their eyes light up when they mention it.

Chen Zhu didn't push her, and winked at Mrs. Qian's fat grandson while listening to their ups and downs chat.

Why use "cadence"? Because that's the tone of Sichuan and Chongqing dialect.

For example, "Xian Mei'er" is pronounced in a straightforward manner whether in Mandarin or Cantonese. Only in Sichuan and Chongqing dialects it is pronounced like this:

Xian (second tone) Mei (fourth tone) (soft voice).

So cute.

After a while, when the fat grandson got bored and clamored to go home, Granny Qian looked at Chen Zhu.

"Xianmei'er, your old man will come over sometimes."

Mrs. Qian said, and glanced at the palms of the two young men held together.

Chen Zhu smiled. The old lady from Sichuan and Chongqing was specifically reminding Yu Xian that your dad comes over often, so be careful of being seen holding hands.

"This is my boyfriend. His name is Chen Zhu. I've met him before."

Yu Xian didn't mind at all and introduced Chen Zhu generously.

When she heard that she had met her parents and had a formal status, Granny Qian became enthusiastic instantly.

"Our sister Xian is very beautiful. She is more beautiful than any of the stars on TV. She can also cook and do housework. Your son can marry her. It's really a blessing."

Granny Qian said proudly, as if Yu Xian was her junior.

"Yes, yes."

Chen Zhu nodded with a smile.

"Xian Mei'er is still very strong!"

Grandma Qian gave another thumbs up and praised: "Her mother passed away and the old man married another man. We wanted to help her, but she didn't want to and went to work in a convenience store by herself."

"I make enough money in the convenience store, do I need your help with my claws?"

Yu Xian looked up at his delicate face and said unconvinced.

"My son has had a bad temper since he was a child."

Granny Qian scolded her heartbrokenly, and then said happily: "Now that I'm admitted to college, your grandma said that educational institutions now provide supplementary classes for children, and each class costs 200 yuan. It's so comfortable."

"Uh-huh……"

Yu Xian nodded his chin.

In fact, Yu Xian no longer needs to go to the previous training institution to take extra classes.

Grandmaster Tong Lan is the current principal of Guangmei University. Even if Professor Guan Angyi doesn't say a word, Tong Lan will take the initiative to take care of this junior sister.

Taking into account Yu Xian's temper, Tong Lan did not give him money directly. Instead, in the name of "work-study program", he asked Yu Xian to do the errands of cleaning the studio, managing the safety of the painting center, and managing the handwritten newspapers on the bulletin board...

It sounds like a lot of things to do, but in fact it is simple tasks such as collecting waste paper, locking the door, drawing a blackboard and so on.

When Chen Zhu heard about it, he knew that some positions were "positioned based on people." What did that mean?

If Yu Xian no longer needs to work part-time, this position will be canceled and no one will take over.

Of course, Yu Xian didn't know the twists and turns here, and she happily told Chen Zhu that she now earns 2,000 yuan a month from her part-time job on campus.

However, as long as she is not busy, she will still go to the original training institution. This is not because of money, but because she had promised the training class teacher to help take care of the children.

"Young man, let me tell you..."

Seeing that Chen Zhu had a good attitude, Granny Qian couldn't help but talk happily. She didn't care about her fat grandson, and talked enthusiastically about some of Yu Xian's embarrassing things.

It seems that all old people are like this.

Let’s start from when Yu Xian was almost poached to become a child star when he was very young;

Then in elementary school, two boys actually fought over being at the same table as Yu Xian. As a result, Yu Xian only wanted to sit with the girls;

Also in junior high school, Yu Xian's temper had become violent. The boys were afraid that she would like her again, so they dropped their gifts at the door of the community and ran away;

…

One by one, one by one.

Chen Zhu has long known that the pace of life in Sichuan and Chongqing is very slow. Everyone can sit contentedly for an afternoon with a pot of tea and a bag of melon seeds.

I didn't expect that this old lady from Sichuan and Chongqing would be able to embody it perfectly. She could set up a dragon gate formation by grabbing someone she just met.

In the end, it was the grandson who made such a fuss and Yu Xian kept persuading her that Granny Qian left without feeling satisfied.

"Huh~"

Chen Zhu then took a breath and asked Yu Xian: "Is this the neighbor who watched you grow up? He almost told me your dark history of bedwetting."

"You're the one who wets the bed!"

Yu Xian pinched Chen Zhu's palm and said, "If you think about it, Granny Qian has known me since I was in kindergarten."

"No wonder you invited me to your home for dinner."

Chen Zhu suddenly realized that they were really close neighbors.

Many old communities are like this. After all, everyone has lived there for many years. Although they look shabby, there is indeed real affection between neighbors.

While the two were talking, some middle-aged and elderly people walking passed by.

Although they did not speak Sichuan-Chongqing dialect, they took the initiative to greet Yu Xian and looked at Chen Zhu with curious, gentle and somewhat scrutinizing eyes.

"It seems that you are still a star in the community."

Chen Zhu said "tsk tsk".

"That's natural. I used to help these uncles and aunts take care of their children."

Yu Xian looked proud of being the "King of Children": "Take them to play and tutor them in their homework..."

"ah?"

Chen Zhu suddenly looked at Yu Xian in surprise.

Sister cos, are you drifting?

At what level in your cultural class do you get no points?

You help them with their homework. The level of mathematics, physics and chemistry of the next generation in Zhusigang is worrying.

Yu Xian heard the distrust in her boyfriend's tone, blushed and said fiercely: "What are you doing? I can still add, subtract, multiply and divide in kindergarten!"

"Hahaha……"

Chen Zhu was so amused by the cosplayer's innocent expression that he couldn't help but make a joke: "If I want to quarrel with you in the future, I have to think carefully about it. After all, your mother-in-law has such a large family."

"Who is so worthless that he still has to go to his mother's family for quarrels?"

Yu Xian wiped up his sleeves, revealing half of his delicate, snow-white arms, and threatened Chen Zhu: "I can handle it myself~"

Under the shadow of the dancing moon, Yu Xian's expression was playful and innocent, his pupils were dark, and his eyelashes were as thick as a small fan, fanning Director Chen's heart.

Unconsciously, the two of them walked downstairs.

Chen Zhu knew that Yu Xian's home was on the second floor. He looked up at the bright window and asked casually, "What does grandma usually do at home at night?"

When Chen Zhu dated Yu Xian before, he would usually watch a movie or something after dinner, and then send her home.

It was quite late at that time, and there were not many people in the community. Chen Zhu would leave after being sent downstairs.

It was relatively early today and I met so many neighbors, some of whom watched Yu Xian grow up.

Chen Zhu, who is particularly sensitive to interpersonal relationships, clearly feels that his and Yu Baobao's identities have changed again.

From "getting to know Yu Xian", we have stepped into the level of "getting to know Yu Xian's family".

In the traditional Chinese view of marriage and love, this is actually an important step forward.

Because when we Chinese people fall in love, we not only talk with the other person alone, but often also "talk" with her family, her neighbors, and her relatives.

Chen Zhu had met "old man" Yu Xiaoliang before, and now he met his neighbor again, which basically means that he is about to make an "all-round appearance" in Yu Xian's life.

Therefore, Chen Zhu began to take the initiative to ask his grandma what she was doing, and took the opportunity to learn about her daily schedule and hobbies. This can be regarded as a "professional habit" within the system.

"I don't know."

Yu Xian curled his red lips and said, "Maybe I got scolded at home because I lost in the mahjong game."

"ah?"

Chen Zhu was stunned.

Yu Xian shrugged his shoulders, and his long burgundy slightly curly hair bounced: "Grandma has a very good attitude. She will curse when she is angry and laugh when she is happy. You will know when we meet in the future."

"Okay~"

Chen Zhu thought to himself that Yu Fangbao's temper was not like that of Lao Yu, his cheap father-in-law, but he might be like his grandma or mother.

But this spot was certainly not suitable for a visit, so he waved to Yu Xian: "You can go up."

Yu Xian shook his head.

Chen Zhu knew what Yu Xianbao meant, and when she usually saw Yu Xian back, she would always watch him leave downstairs.

"Then I'll go first."

Before Chen Zhu left, he hugged Yu Xian gently.

Yu Xian's head was obediently placed in her boyfriend's arms, until she felt a hand "trouble" on her waist, and the slightest bit of cold air came through through her lifted clothes.

"Hurry up, hurry up, lest you miss the subway."

Yu Xian's cheeks seemed to be stained with light rouge, and he pushed the dog man forward a few steps.

Chen Zhu then waved goodbye with a smile, but when he walked under a big banyan tree, Chen Zhu suddenly turned around.

The tall figure still stood where he was.

She would not be willing to go upstairs until she could no longer see him.

Chen Zhu stopped and pointed at the trunk of the banyan tree.

The first time the two held hands happened here.

It was midsummer, the branches and leaves were luxuriant, and my head was covered with sweat.

Yu Xian obviously knew this location, but it was a bit far away, so she nodded desperately.

Chen Zhu responded with a smile, but did not laugh out loud. The two of them seemed to be acting in a mime.

After a while, Chen Zhu suddenly took out the amber bottle of 1982 Lafite from his pocket.

After opening it, he took a big gulp and then raised the bottle high.

Under the reflection of light, the glass shines like an eternally shining diamond.

Yu Xian burst into tears. It turned out that Chen Zhu had always remembered that moment. In Yu Xian's heart, those were the most important moments between the two of them.

snort!

Director Chen still knows how to be romantic!

She was about to run over and hug her boyfriend again.

Suddenly, there was a "clatter" on the second floor window, and grandma stretched out her head. She first took a look at the clothes under the tree, and then shouted to Yu Xian:

"Xianmei, if you don't come home late, do you want to make paws?"

······

(I still want to ask for a monthly ticket!)
