Xue Nian did come back seldom. The other party was a professor at Evergrande University. The old lady said that he often flew to various parts of the country for meetings and also studied courses.
There was pride in her words, and sometimes she would sigh.
When people get old, there is no one to accompany them, and there may even be no one to listen to their complaints. That kind of loneliness is really tormenting.
"Wow..." Peanut seemed to understand what the others said, and came over and lay down beside the old lady.
"Peanut is old too." The old lady looked at the dog under her and said slowly, "This year is the twelfth year that Peanut has been with me."
"I took Peanut for a physical examination some time ago. The veterinarian said that the situation is very good and he can accompany grandma for a long time." Yang Ying continued her words and tried her best to squeeze out a smile that looked more natural.
In fact, the lifespan of dogs is generally only more than ten years.
Peanut is already an old dog, and it has become a little "old".
"That's good." The old lady was actually also emotional, and soon changed the topic, "I heard that Yingying has improved a lot in this exam?"
"Just a little bit." Yang Ying made a small gesture.
With Ji Yang around, what does that mean to her?
She didn't dare to be complacent at all.
"It's always good to make progress. Grandma will give you a big red envelope later. I heard from Yang Yang that our Yingying has been working hard." The old lady's voice was kind, and her gentle eyes fell on her.
Yang Ying smiled shyly.
In the end, she got a red envelope that was twice as much as Ji Yang's, and she was a little happy. She showed off in front of him.
Ji Yang looked at her with his eyelids raised, put one hand in his pocket, and walked back to his room coolly. Before leaving, he said, "Didn't you finish the exercises yesterday?"
Yang Ying's smile froze on her face, "New Year's Eve!"
"That was owed yesterday, not yesterday." His voice came slowly.
"..."
*
The fifth day of the first lunar month.
These days, while Yang Ying was at home with the old lady, she finished the exercises she owed in the atmosphere full of the end of the year.
Ji Yang watched TV leisurely every day, came to check when it was time, and continued if he couldn't finish it.
Yang Ying saw that his expression was full of resentment these days. He would secretly eat the rice cakes made by the old lady without asking her.
"No more." She pushed the test paper forward.
"There is half left, in the refrigerator." Ji Yang leaned on the table, crossed his hands on his chest, and looked down at her.
"It's all cold." She pursed her lips and looked at her with a frown.
"Who is not concentrating? You have been working on the questions for one day for five days and still haven't finished them." Ji Yang did not give in, "You still make sense?"
Hearing this, Yang Ying's momentum weakened a little, and she muttered, "I have seen people like you, tell grandma."
"Grandma is out."
"I know it." Yang Ying continued to glare at him. If the old lady was there, she would not allow Ji Yang to do this.
Secretly accompanied her to eat the cakes.
Grandma must have given her the food first.
Ji Yang bent his fingers and tapped on the table, signaling her to continue.
"Don't touch my test paper." Yang Ying snorted coldly, snatched back her own test paper, and pushed him aside, "Get out, you're in the way, affecting my mood for doing the test paper!"
Yes, she still has a temper now.
Ji Yang looked at her angry little face, stretched out his hand to pinch it, and walked out with a smile when she was about to explode.
"Big bad guy!" Yang Ying gritted her teeth and finished her two test papers angrily.
When she came out, she saw the re-steamed rice cakes on the dining table, and her anger seemed to be extinguished at once.
Ji Yang was curled up on the sofa watching anime, and she rushed over and hugged him, using a lot of strength, making him groan.
Before she could act coquettishly, the old lady's voice came from another room, and she "jumped" up again.
"Grandma is here."
Ji Yang held back her laughter, her pair of peach blossom eyes were very charming, she glared at him fiercely, and ran quickly to another room.
The old lady gave her a nightgown and asked her to try it on.
The nightgown was made of purchased cloth in light blue, with a waist that was shrunk and an irregular hem.
It was simple and beautiful, like the style that little girls like.
Yang Ying liked it very much, but the shoulder circumference needed to be reduced a little bit, so the old lady had to make changes again, so she sat by her side to accompany her.
The old lady had difficulty threading the needle due to her old eyesight, so she took it and helped her put it on.
"If you are not here, sometimes I can't even thread this needle after wearing it for a whole day." The old lady shook her head and said with a smile.
Yang Ying felt sad. When they came, she always found something to do, and it was best not to be idle, but she often smiled.
"Grandma, please make some changes, it will be done soon." The old lady took the clothes and gestured on her, muttering to herself, "Let's make it smaller."
"Yeah." She nodded.
Girls are always more careful than boys. When Ji Yang is busy, Yang Ying will visit the old lady alone.
Go to the supermarket to buy some supplements, or daily necessities she needs, sit with her, and have a meal.
She comes more frequently than Ji Yang.
Sometimes after school, Ji Yang would come and go home with her, and the two would always walk hand in hand.
"I remember you said last time that you were coming to grandma's place, and then you met me at the milk tea shop. No, that's not right, these are two opposite directions." Yang Ying suddenly remembered something and asked him with her head tilted.
Ji Yang avoided her gaze, "When did it happen?"
"Before we were together, I didn't wait for you at the milk tea shop, and then you came." She continued to look at him, "I remember it very clearly, you said you were coming to grandma's place."
"You remembered it wrong."
"No, that's what you said."
He avoided her sight, and Yang Ying kept moving closer to him, as if she had discovered some big secret, "Why are you hiding? Why are you speaking so vaguely? Are you looking for me on purpose? Is that right?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Ji Yang denied it immediately, but his face was obviously a little guilty, and he was also a little embarrassed that his secret was discovered.
