Rebirth Must Be Happy

Chapter 28 [028] Xu Jinhuan loves me more?
"I've wasted such good tea."

Xu Haiguang took the tea leaves and looked at them, then put them down and said with a smile, "Go to your grandfather's house in a couple of days and give them to him. In our family, only your grandfather likes to drink tea."

"Why don't we go tomorrow?"

Song Xiaohui thought for a moment and said, "I happen to have a day off, so I'll ask Xiaofeng what he said."

Xu Haiguang said, "I have work to do tomorrow, so I won't go. If you have anything to say, please tell me."

"Row."

Song Xiaohui responded and began to think about what to bring to her parents' home tomorrow.

After getting married, the grandparents were unable to conceive for many years and sought medical treatment from many sources without success. In despair, they adopted a daughter, Song Xiaohui, Xu Jinhuan's mother.

However, just half a year after the adoption, my grandmother became pregnant. At that time, most relatives and friends advised her to give the adopted daughter to someone else since she already had a biological child. But my grandparents refused, believing that it was the good luck brought by the adopted daughter that allowed them to have their own flesh and blood, and they still treated her as their own.

Song Xiaohui had no talent for studying and stopped continuing her studies after graduating from junior high school; her uncle Song Xiaofeng, however, had excellent grades since childhood. After graduating from college, he went abroad to study for love, stayed on the other side of the ocean, got married and had children.

The couple settled down in a foreign country and their careers were going well, but their relationship had problems. Xu Jinhuan vaguely remembered that his uncle should have divorced recently.

In other words, it’s time for my cousin to return home…

Xu Jinhuan pretended not to know and asked, "What happened to my uncle?"

"It's okay, don't worry about it."

Song Xiaohui still treated him as a child and didn't want him to know these things.

Xu Jinhuan didn't ask any further questions, but just said: "I won't have lunch at grandma's house tomorrow. I'll just go there to talk and come back."

Song Xiaohui asked curiously, "Why are you in such a hurry to come back?"

"I have to go to the library to review."

Xu Jinhuan spoke frankly, "The midterm exam is coming up soon, and I need to study hard."

"Are you really going to the library?"

My parents were a little skeptical, “When did you become so fond of studying?”

Xu Jinhuan said in a sloppy tone, "Then just assume that I'm in a hurry to get back to the internet bar."

My parents really thought so, but when they saw him "admit" it so directly, they were not so sure anymore and suspected that they had misunderstood their son.

The next morning, Xu Jinhuan got up early as usual. After ten days of rest, he started his fitness plan. In view of his poor physical endurance, he did not dare to show off. He only ran two laps in the community and felt pretty good about himself.

After breakfast, Dad went to move furniture, while Xu Jinhuan accompanied Mom on the bus out of the city to visit grandpa and grandma.

"Grandpa!"

The bus only passed by the next village. After getting off, my grandfather came to pick me up on an electric tricycle. Seeing that my grandfather was still in good health, Xu Jinhuan greeted him warmly and took out the tea to show his treasure: "I brought you this tea, Longjing tea. Have you tried it?"

"Where did you buy it from?"

Grandpa was a little surprised and said, "Why waste this money..."

"This was a gift from Huanhuan. Someone gave it to his classmate's father. He took a box," Song Xiaohui explained, not forgetting to show off. "It's so valuable... I didn't even know there was such expensive tea..."

My grandfather had been a primary school teacher when he was young, but later retired early due to the closure of the school and the merger of branches. He farmed on weekdays and read the newspaper and drank tea in his spare time. He still retained some of the airs of an intellectual, and said cheerfully, "That's great! I'm lucky to be part of this. I've never tasted such good tea in my life."

Compared with his grandparents, Xu Jinhuan has always liked his grandpa and grandma more, mainly because the old couple has a very good advantage, which is that they don't spoil the fun.

For example, if you bring expensive gifts to your grandparents, they will definitely not want them, and you will ask them to return them after buying them. If it is a gift from someone else, you should also say, "You can sell it for a lot of money."

Later, when Xu Jinhuan became successful in his career and became wealthy, he would take his grandparents on a trip. No matter where they went, their grandparents would always say, "It's too expensive!" "You guys eat it, I don't want it!" "I don't want it!" ...

The older generation is frugal, and Xu Jinhuan can understand that and is not angry, but he is really tired after getting along with them. He didn't play anything during the whole trip, and basically just persuaded the two old people to eat with his parents.

My grandparents were much easier to communicate with. They were a little reluctant to spend money at first, but after communicating, they basically just cooperated with his arrangements and it was very easy to get along with them.

After arriving at his grandfather's house and greeting his grandmother, Xu Jinhuan went to play with the dog Da Huang tied in a corner of the yard. Then he checked the time and sent a text message to Chen Xingzhu.

"Buzz"

On the third floor of the Municipal Library, Chen Xingzhu was looking for a book in front of the bookshelf when her cell phone suddenly vibrated in her pocket. She picked up the phone with a little confusion and saw the text message content displayed on the lock screen.

A number not saved in the address book: "I have something to do today, I will be at the library later."

Although she didn't save the number, not many people knew her mobile phone number. After the emergence of WeChat, even fewer people would send text messages to her. Therefore, based on the content, she immediately guessed who the other party was.

But why text yourself?

"I wasn't waiting for him..."

Chen Xingzhu pursed her lips, thinking so in her heart, she found a book called "The Pyramid Principle", sat down at the table and read it carefully.

This was a book on logic, and she was reading it very seriously. But for some reason, as she was reading, a thought suddenly popped up in her mind: 'Because of Xu Jinhuan, my life seems to have changed a bit...'

This change actually appeared a long time ago. On the day before the Qingming Festival holiday, he inexplicably ran into the classroom and said those words to me, which brought about two changes:
1. Because of Xu Jinhuan's words, Zhou Wei, a classmate, took the initiative to talk to him about how he was aloof and how she didn't dare to talk to him;

If he hadn't said those words first, Zhou Wei would definitely not have said them to her.

2. Because of Xu Jinhuan’s words and Zhou Wei’s subsequent remarks, I began to pay attention to expression problems that I had not noticed before. When I used to habitually nod or shake my head without saying anything, I would now add simple words.

This was Chen Xingzhu's subconscious action under the circumstances at the time, but it brought about effects far beyond her imagination. Not only did Zhou Wei communicate with her more frequently, but even Zhu Xinyao and Hu Yingxin at the table in front of her started talking to her more.

Although he did not have any deeper communication with them, Chen Xingzhu did not even think that they could be called friends, but he had to admit that having these three girls often talking to him made him feel that at least one of the school and home was no longer so cold.

Even the library, which she originally regarded as a safe haven and paradise, became more lively because of Xu Jinhuan's sudden intrusion, and was no longer as silent as stagnant water.

According to her instinctive logic, which she had not studied much about logic, these changes were caused by Xu Jinhuan saying those words, but why did Xu Jinhuan say those words?
Those were obviously not the normal words a person expressing love would use. At least, so many people had said so many words of confession before, and there had been so many different ways of expressing love, but no one had ever said those words, and no one had ever brought such a big impact and change to their own lives.

What's the reason?
What does it mean?
Xu Jinhuan is more sincere than them. Does he really like me?
Chen Xingzhu didn't have an answer, but as these thoughts came to mind, more thoughts could not help but flash through his mind:
"Why did Xu Jinhuan send me a message? Did he think coming to the library on the weekend was an appointment that needed to be kept on time?"

'Has he finished his math review?'

as well as……

"He didn't come to the library. Did something happen to him?"
