13 Mink Street

Deron seemed completely unaware of what was wrong with the words he yelled. He was like a drowning man who had finally surfaced and kept breathing heavily, so he kept yelling these words again. several times:

"Karen, you are my grandfather!"

"Karen, you are my grandfather!"

"Karen..."

Karen could understand Deron's mood swings, and naturally ignored this slight slip of the tongue, and responded with a smile:

"Grandpa."

Hearing this name, Delong finally calmed down, as if he had been injected with a strong tranquilizer.

He sat back on the chair, as if all his energy had been taken away at once, but he did not sink into a slump, because a new force called hope was being instilled.

He has accepted the knowledge that Karen is his grandson, but he has not yet adapted to the changes brought about by this knowledge.

For example, such an excellent young man in front of him also has the blood of the Guman family, and the Rubik's Cube he condensed is so exquisite and beautiful. Does this mean the future of the Guman family...

The corner of the old man's mouth began to twitch, and he was restraining himself from giggling now, especially in front of his new grandson.

But he couldn't restrain himself, the two emotions of joy and reserve were colliding violently in his body, making him unable to help but want to writhe with them, as if everything was itchy.

Finally, the old man pointed to the top and said:

"Well, Karen, dinner should be served up there, you should go up to eat first, your grandma...your grandma has prepared a lot of delicious food for you."

"Okay, grandpa."

Karen turned and left the studio after bowing halfway to Deron.

This "recognition" is a bit too simple, but it is reasonable, Karen is not prepared, Deron is not ready.

As for letting the two parties hug each other and cry when they meet each other, this is obviously unrealistic.

After Karen walked out, Deron covered his mouth with one hand, and swayed back and forth on the chair. An old man's eyes were narrowed into crescents, and the lower half of his face covered by his hand probably had already smiled. flowers.

After realizing the self-redemption of his deceased daughter, the next thing he needs to face and imagine is the hope that such an excellent grandson can bring to him in his later years;

Either you don't want to, and you can't stop thinking about it.

Originally, Deron thought that Karen's work style was too rigid, which was not in line with his work and life philosophy, but now he feels that this is the vitality that young people should have, and he really wants to be like himself. If they are as stale and stale, then they are worthless!

After solving this point, in the eyes of the old man, Karen seems to have no shortcomings but all advantages.

A big reason for intergenerational relatives is that when their children are born, as parents, they have not yet reached their twilight years, and they are still in their prime or even young. They are still in the stage of exploring their own lives, and even many When people become parents, they are not prepared to be parents at all;

When the grandchildren are born, it seems that a road has gone halfway or is about to come to an end. At this time, you can often stop and expect and plan for your next generation to walk more steadily and better on this road. It seems that fate gave me another chance to paint on white paper again on the premise of having experience once.

Delong also wanted to pick up the paintbrush, but when he looked at the painting in front of him, he found that there was already a lot of content on it, and it seemed that no matter where he added a brush, it seemed a bit cumbersome;

But this will not give him a sense of frustration, the kind of happiness of "eating ready-made" is difficult to describe in words;

Since the younger generations don't need to plan by themselves, then I don't mind directly substituting into the younger generation's perspective, and with the help of them, let myself "re-experience" life.

in the end,

On the premise of knowing that there is an enchantment, the old man still suppressed his voice with a guilty conscience, because he wanted to say the next sentence, but he knew it would be shameful and shameless to say it, but he still couldn't stop himself The urge to speak up:

"No wonder Karen is so good. It turns out that the blood of my Guman family flows in his body."

...

Karen returned to the living room, and Richard came over and asked, "What did my grandfather tell you to go down?"

"It's nothing." Karen shook his head, "Some work matters."

"Oh, my uncle and I are going out to buy some fruit."

"Isn't it time for dinner?"

"Grandma still needs to prepare a few dishes, don't delay."

"Then you go."

Richard lowered his voice and said, "This time, I will cause you trouble again."

He was talking about Inquisitor Dark.

"It's a matter of one sentence, no trouble or no trouble."

That sentence was from his own family anyway, so Karen didn't say it.

In fact, this is really nothing. Maybe the huge problem you are facing, in the eyes of people at another level, can be easily solved with just one sentence.

"Hey." Richard smiled, and walked out of the porch with his uncle.

Mr. Eisen came to Karen, looked at the stairs leading to the basement, and then at Karen.

"Uncle, it's all right."

"Okay." Mr. Eisen nodded, then pointed to his study, "I'll go back to the study first."

"OK."

Mr. Eisen is feeling a little emotional, but although he can greet people now, it is still difficult to express his feelings, so he can only go back to his study to calm down.

Karen walked into the kitchen. Mrs. Tang Li was frying vegetables in the pot, fried pork slices with bitter gourd.

Seeing Karen coming in, Mrs. Tang Li said, "I've blanched the bitter gourd."

"Hmm." Karen leaned against the kitchen door frame naturally.

"It's pretty fast." Mrs. Tang Li smiled while cooking, "I'm sure you won't be able to let go of the old stuff, and I don't want to make a fool of yourself in front of you, so I told you that the meal is ready."

"Yes, you are right."

"He is happy."

"I know."

"Today is his birthday, Karen, and I have one more request."

"You say."

"Kai Xi and the others don't come back at noon, I want to call all the family over at night, we have dinner together, and I'll prepare a big birthday cake, do you think it's okay?"

"Okay, I agree."

"and you……"

"I was planning to rest in the afternoon, nothing happened."

"Then you can sleep at home in the afternoon? Sleep in Richard's room." After a pause, grandma said again, "I'll replace Richard's bedding with new ones later."

"Okay, grandma."

At this time, Mr. Delong walked into the dining room, which was connected to the kitchen. The old man carefully opened a chair at the edge of the dining table and sat down there.

This location is the farthest from the kitchen, but he can see the kitchen, and he is like a gluttonous child, eager to smell it.

Mrs. Tang Li glanced outside, seeing her husband's unpromising appearance, she could only shake her head and ask:

"Karen, when are you going to get married?"

"It's not in a hurry, I'm busy with work now."

"Is your fiancee not in a hurry?"

"She wants to try to start her own business, and wants to be a fashion designer. I support her."

"Because she sees that you don't have much urge to get married, and doesn't want to force you to get married, she deliberately finds a reason for you, which is also a step down for herself."

"Oh, is that so, that was my negligence."

"You know better than anyone else." Mrs. Tang Li unceremoniously pierced this hypocritical bubble.

Karen could only touch his nose in embarrassment.

Mr. Delong sitting in the restaurant outside, seemed to be talking to himself, while gently pulling the tablecloth with his fingers, he said with emotion:

"It's better to get married early, better to get married early."

He didn't take the initiative to find someone to talk to, so it's hard for others to respond to him. Now he seems to be watching other children playing games together, and he is sitting on the next step. In order to hide his incompatibility, he doesn't want others to see When he came out, he was also eager to join in the fun, so he pretended to be busy with other things, such as admiring the white clouds in the sky.

Mr. Delong really raised his head and looked at the chandelier above the dining room. Ah, the dust seems to have accumulated again, and it's time to clean it.

"Get married early and have a child early." Mrs. Tang Li took out the dishes and began to wash the pot to prepare the next dish.

Karen shook his head slightly and said, "Not ready yet."

"Is there anything I need to prepare, I can take care of the children for you while I am still able to move my hands and feet and hold a spatula."

Delong in the restaurant lowered his head while touching his fingers and said with emotion:

"Yes, yes, we can do something."

"Grandma, look, grandpa said we still have things to do, so don't worry about the child in advance."

"ah?"

Delong raised his head in surprise, he didn't mean that.

"You have to take care of your own affairs, and you can't be too busy with work. People are like a screw. You always feel that after this nail is nailed, you can still have enough time to calmly do things that are in your heart. As for the arrangements, in fact, I really don’t have that much time.”

"I understand what you mean, grandma."

"But you will still follow your own inner thoughts?"

"um, yes."

"Taste the soup for me, add some seasoning, and put down the side dishes, too."

"OK."

At this time, the doorbell rang.

Mr. Delong got up and went to the entrance to open the door. It was Philomena who came.

She was not wearing a divine robe, a red turtleneck sweater on her upper body, and blue jeans on her lower body.

But she has a special ability, that is, no matter how youthful and beautiful she is dressed, it will give people a "dark" depressive feeling.

"Come on." Deron greeted with a smile and invited her in.

Philomena looked at Deron. As an excellent assassin and dream user, she could easily perceive the other party's emotions, but she didn't say anything about it.

Most of the time, people like her are not pleasing, her expression and posture, as if wherever she goes, it seems that the people around her owe her tens of thousands of coupons.

But because of his own reasons, Deron felt very kind to the girl from the Fisher family.

Philomena walked into the living room, and just about to sit down, Deron pointed to the dining room: "We are talking in the dining room."

The voice was high, as if deliberately emphasizing it.

Philomena walked into the dining room, and Karen, who was leaning on the kitchen door frame, turned to look at her and nodded to her.

"minister."

Philomena saluted Karen.

"sit down."

"Um."

Philomena sat down.

Deron poured a cup of tea for Philomena and placed it in front of her, then sat down in his previous position.

"The fight last time was still not good." Mrs. Tang Li began to find fault.

Philomena said nothing.

"Are you dumb?" Mrs. Tang Li shouted.

"A question of strength." Philomena began to answer, "absolutely not enough strength, there is no way."

"That's all you can do. As an assassin, you only dare to attack people whose absolute strength is lower than yours. What kind of assassin is that?"

"The other party is also an assassin."

"Oh, trash."

Philomena's expression did not change at all, she lowered her head and began to drink tea.

Karen felt a little strange, it turned out that the atmosphere of the walks between my grandmother and Philomena in the past was like this.

It seems that my grandmother really doesn't have the temperament to be a teacher. Fortunately, Philomena is far stronger than most of the students.

Mrs. Tang Li began to serve the dishes, and Karen also began to help when she saw this. At this time, Richard and the others also came back with fruits. Lunch began like this.

At the dinner table, Deron didn't deliberately talk to Karen or pass food, he was very quiet and normal.

Duck took the initiative to start the conversation, and Karen would also answer a few words, mainly because Richard would cooperate with him. In short, the atmosphere of the lunch was not as lively as expected, but it was not bad.

Karen was ready to rest after dinner. Richard saw his grandma walked into his bedroom, removed all the bedding, and put on a new quilt cover.

He was very touched and stepped forward to hug grandma:

"Grandma, you are so kind."

"Excuse me, don't disturb my work, I'll arrange Karen early so that I can rest here early."

Richard: "..."

"Karen, the arrangement is ready, come up and rest quickly."

"Okay, grandma."

Karen lay down on Richard's bed, and Philomena came in first and sat on the edge of the bed.

"Sit on the chair."

Philomena stood up upon hearing this, sat on the chair opposite the bed, and said, "Minister, I want to ask for leave."

"reason."

"Special training."

"Special training? Where is it?"

"I don't know, she arranged it."

She should be referring to my grandmother.

"Then follow her arrangement. If I approve, how long will it take?"

"I don't know, but if you need it, you can call me back anytime."

"Um."

Philomena looked at Karen and asked, "Would you like to stay for dinner?"

"Well, yes, are you busy this afternoon?"

Philomena froze for a moment, then replied, "Not busy."

She doesn't really have much to do.

Alfred's positioning of her is that his young master's thug and bodyguard, she really can't do anything else, it is impossible to give her a director like Richard.

"Then you can stay for dinner too."

"OK."

After Philomena finished speaking, she closed her eyes and fell asleep while sitting on the chair.

Sleeping is always the easiest thing for her.

At this time, Mrs. Tang Li walked in with a cup of hot milk, and seeing Philomena with her eyes closed, she cursed directly: "I told you, you are not allowed to sleep in the disarmed state."

Philomena, who had just fallen asleep, woke up and opened her eyes: "I am by the minister's side."

"It doesn't matter who you are with. You have to ensure that you are in the state of cultivation at all times. Go outside and find a place to sleep on the fruit stand, and then tell me how many customers came to that fruit stand in the afternoon and how many fruits were sold."

Philomena stood up and walked out of the bedroom.

Mrs. Tang Li put the milk on the bedside table, and when she faced Karen, she changed her previous grim expression and became very kind:

"Drink milk before going to bed."

"Okay, grandma."

"Do you think I'm being too harsh on her?"

"No, you are doing it for her own good."

Assassin's loss rate is the highest.

"It's the same for you. Now that you've got your position, don't work as hard as before."

"I know, Grandma."

Richard appeared at the door of the bedroom and said, "Karen, I'm going back to work at the headquarters, and I'll be back for dinner tonight."

"I'll help you ask for leave."

"No, no, no need, I actually have a lot to do." Richard winked at Karen.

He has already noticed that his father's mood is not right today. How should I put it, he is a little excited. He feels that he may find an excuse to beat himself up in the afternoon to cheer him up!

Richard, who had a premonition of this omen, decided to sneak back to work first.

"Go, yes, the letter of appointment from Memphis has come down, your deputy director of the office, but he has some problems at home, and he has a part-time job given to him by Alfred, so sometimes he will be late and leave early or even miss work , these are agreed by Alfred."

"Hey, what is this, I won't be angry, Memphis is my good brother, although this guy is older than me, I always treat him as a younger brother.

You don't know, it's a good thing he met me, otherwise I really thought how could he survive in the workplace with his stupid stupid mind, and he would starve to death when he went out to beg. "

Mr. Eisen, who was holding an ashtray, just appeared at the door, his eyelids drooped suddenly.

However, he still put the ashtray on Karen's bedside, with a wet facial tissue inside.

"Mr. Eisen, I don't smoke."

"It's okay." Eisen shook his head, and then put down a cigarette. This is also a Church cigarette, which has a paralyzing effect on the soul, and the price is higher than that of the Thunder God Sect.

Eisen knew that Karen sometimes needed this kind of thing to suppress the pain when his soul was injured or sluggish.

"This is?"

"I bought it."

"OK, thanks."

"Okay, let Karen rest." After Madam Tang Li drove everyone away, she closed the bedroom door.

Richard sighed, and joked to his grandfather standing beside him:

"Grandpa, sometimes I really wonder who is the real grandson of the Guman family, Karen or me."

Deron replied: "It used to be you."

"Um?"

"Aren't you going to work, Eisen, to send your son to work?"

Eisen came over with the belt, and the car key was hung on the belt.

"No, father, you have a good rest, I can go by myself."

Eisen looked up at his son and said, "Let's go."

"Grandpa, tell my dad quickly, I can go to work by myself."

Delong said: "There have been a lot of things happening in the district recently, and the outside is quite chaotic. Let your father send you to work, and we can feel at ease."

"Can you feel at ease?"

"Come down!"

Richard could only go downstairs with a mournful face, and followed Eisen out.

After they all left, Delong began to arrange a "rest formation" on the bedroom door, which can help sleep and improve sleep quality.

After finishing all this, he gently moved a chair, placed it at the door of the bedroom, and sat on it by himself.

Holding a newspaper in his hand, he looked at the newspaper and then at the bedroom door.

"He is your son." Deron said in his heart, "Dad failed to protect you, but Dad swears that he will protect your son."

Mrs. Tang Li passed the living room, looked up, looked at her husband sitting at the door of the bedroom on the second floor, and couldn't help shaking her head and smiling;

When the eldest daughter was still young, he would wait for her daughter to wake up at the door of her bedroom every morning while pretending to read the newspaper, longing for the first "Daddy" her daughter called to him in the new day.

right now,

He was waiting for Karen to wake up and come out before calling himself "Grandpa".
