Chapter 20 She Smiles Softly
Chapter 20 She smiles softly
"Come on, come on, come inside and sit down!"
As soon as Yun Zhi stepped through the door, Grandma Yan greeted her warmly.
This was the first time that Yun Zhi met Yan Chen's grandma. She looked a few years younger than her grandma, and she also laughed more than her grandma. I don't know if Yan Chen's love of laughter followed her grandma.
Grandma Yan loves to laugh, while her grandmother is more melancholy. The two old people have different styles, but they have one thing in common, that is, they are both kind.
"Grandma Yan, excuse me."
"Don't bother me, don't bother me. It's too late for grandma to be happy that you can come. Your name is Yun Zhi, right?" Grandma Yan is enthusiastic, but she doesn't approach people enthusiastically to talk to them as soon as they meet.
She stood there with enthusiasm and propriety.
This measured enthusiasm will not make people who meet you for the first time feel uncomfortable.
"Yes, my name is Yun Zhi."
Grandma Yan smiled and said: "I heard that the wife of the Li family who sells breakfast at the entrance of the alley calls you Xiaozhi. Can I call you that too?"
"Okay." Although she didn't feel uncomfortable, Yun Zhi was still a little cautious when facing such enthusiastic elders.
"Then Xiao Zhi, you sit down first. I'll go to the kitchen to bring out the dishes and then you can eat."
Yun Zhi wanted to help, but felt that it was too abrupt to visit for the first time, but it would not be good to just sit and wait for the elders to bring the food instead of helping.
She looked at Yan Chen.
Yan Chen smiled: "There are very few guests at home. When I see you, my grandma will inevitably become a little more enthusiastic. Just get used to it. You sit down first and I will help grandma serve the dishes."
They all entered the kitchen, and Yun Zhi had no choice but to walk under the dining table.
She didn't deliberately observe it. When she entered the house, she found that Yan Chen's house was larger than hers. There was an extra room in the house, which should belong to Grandma Yan. There was also an extra utility room for storing things in the yard.
There is a pot of green plants on the coffee table in the living room.
Like the pots of green plants on the windowsill outside, they are all spiritual plants.
They are all spiritual plants of high quality.
As far as Yun Zhi knows, spiritual plants of this grade are extremely rare in the supernatural world, and even those with money may not be able to buy them. But Yan Chen has several pots.
This shows that Yan Chen has a wide range of connections in the supernatural world.
Thinking of Yan Chen's strength, Yun Zhi felt relieved.
Her supernatural power reached level 10 when she was seventeen years old. Her grandma said that her supernatural talent was rare in a thousand years. She also said that if the level of supernatural power exceeded level 10, it would be difficult to have any rivals in the world of supernatural powers.
But she had just turned eighteen, the day after her grandma passed away, and she clearly felt that her powers had broken through the tenth level and entered the eleventh level.
Grandma told her that in the current understanding of the supernatural world, the highest level of supernatural powers is level ten.
Based on the information she has obtained, Yun Zhi thinks that the reason why the world of supernatural powers has formed such a perception is because no one has exceeded level 10 of supernatural powers in thousands of years.
Judging from Yan Chen's spiritual power, Yan Chen's strength is not necessarily much different from hers.
Grandma said that in the supernatural world, strength is respected. With such strength, Yan Chen’s status in the supernatural world will definitely not be low.
"What are you thinking about? You are so absorbed in it."
Yan Chen placed two plates of food on the dining table.
Yun Zhi came back to her senses: "It's nothing."
Grandma Yan also brought out the food, and Yun Zhi stood up to help serve the food.
"Xiao Zhi, stop working so hard and sit down to eat."
Yun Zhi handed a bowl of rice to Yan Chen. She took two bowls herself and gave one to Grandma Yan. Grandma Yan gave the chopsticks to them.
"I didn't know beforehand that you were coming, so I didn't prepare any food. I just ate it for now, and grandma will prepare it carefully next time." Grandma Yan said to Yun Zhi with a smile.
Yun Zhi said: "It's already very good."
Three dishes and one soup were all very appetizing home-cooked dishes, many times better than the fried rice rice bowl she had eaten at the restaurant in the past two days.
While eating, Grandma Yan invited Yun Zhi to eat and said, "Xiao Zhi, I heard A Chen say you live alone?"
Yun Zhi glanced at Yan Chen, who just smiled.
He looked away and nodded in response to Grandma Yan: "Yes."
"You live alone, and you are in your senior year of high school. You are busy studying, so you probably don't have much time to cook. In this way, I have to cook every day anyway. It is cooking for two people, and it is also cooking for three people. If you don't mind it,
, let’s build fire with our family from now on.”
Yun Zhi was slightly stunned.
He looked up at the old man with a kind smile.
It's not that she doesn't have time to cook. If she squeezes it in, she can still find time to cook. The biggest problem she faces is that she is not very good at cooking.
Just, have a meal with their family over a fire?
Yun Zhi did not expect that the old man would suddenly suggest this.
Look at the old man and then at Yan Chen.
Yan Chen said with a smile: "My grandma is right. It's troublesome for you to open a fire by yourself. From now on, you can start a fire with our family. Dining with three people is more lively than eating with two people."
Grandma Yan said: "If you feel embarrassed, just give me three hundred yuan a month for food."
Three hundred dollars?
Yun Zhi is not a person who doesn't like the fireworks of the world. With the standard of Yan's cuisine, even if she only eats one meal at their house every day, three hundred yuan is not enough, let alone weekends and occasional holidays.
Food for the whole day.
She looked at Grandma Yan and said hesitantly: "Would it be too troublesome for you?"
It was undeniable that she was a little moved.
Not to mention anything else, she was a little excited based on her own food and clothing situation. She is not a person who attaches great importance to food, but if she can eat delicious food, who would be willing to deal with it outside?
"No trouble, no trouble, just a matter of convenience."
Yun Zhi felt that the old man's words sounded strangely familiar.
"Then I'll trouble you later. It's just that three hundred yuan for food is too little."
"Then four hundred? Five hundred? Six hundred, no more, otherwise you will suffer a loss. I only cook you dinner every day and three meals on weekends. I don't care about you at ordinary times. You, a little girl, can eat
How many?"
How could she suffer any loss? She clearly took advantage of it.
Yun Zhi said: "Then I'll trouble you from now on."
"What's the trouble? You and Ah Chen are classmates or deskmates, and we are neighbors. Where can we find such a fate?"
Yes, where can I find such fate?
Yun Zhi has a quiet and talkative temperament. After her grandma passed away, her quiet and talkative temperament was tinged with a sense of self-abandonment. She rarely smiled, so at this time she slightly bent her lips and gave a faint smile to Grandma Yan.
, Grandma Yan and Yan Chen were both stunned.
She has a small face, which is not Leng Yu's appearance. On the contrary, she actually looks very soft and waxy. It's just that she usually has an expressionless face and has a cold temperament that doesn't allow strangers to approach her, which makes people ignore this. Now
She smiled lightly, very well-behaved and soft.
After dinner, Yun Zhi wanted to go home. Grandma Yan knew that they had heavy study tasks in their senior year of high school. There were many test papers to write and a lot of content to memorize, so she did not stay.
Yan Chen saw Yun Zhi off.
Only a few steps away, Yan Chen insisted on sending Yun Zhi to the door of his house and watched her enter the house with his own eyes.
Pushing open the door with one hand, Yun Zhi looked back at Yan Chen who was standing there and asked him: "Yan Chen, do you have any spiritual plants you need?"
Yan Chen didn't make a sound.
He probably didn't expect Yun Zhi to ask this question suddenly, and he didn't react for a while.
"As long as it is not a spiritual plant that is difficult to survive like the dream-eating grass, no matter how difficult the spiritual plant itself is to grow, I can grow it."
If this had been said by someone else, it might have been suspected of being a boaster. But this person was Yun Zhi, and she was not the type to be a boaster.
So what she said is true.
It would be a lie to say that he is not excited, but there is no one with super powers who does not want the best spiritual plants, not to mention that he has a body that is comparable to a terminal illness and is in urgent need of some hard-to-find spiritual plants to recuperate.
But Yan Chen still refused.
He smiled and said: "You should be able to tell that the pots of green plants on my windowsill are all top-quality spiritual plants. I got a pot of ink orchid from you before, so there is no shortage of spiritual plants for the time being."
"Then tell me when you are short of it and I will plant it for you."
Yan Chen arched his eyebrows and smiled, and responded cheerfully: "Okay."
