Bringing space to the countryside, others eat bran while I eat meat
Chapter 275 Old Friend
......Otherwise, who would give away all their wealth just after meeting someone......
......
When Shen Ning brought people to his courtyard, Zhuang Hongwen looked at the simple courtyard in front of him, and his heart was filled with pain. "You live here?"
Shen Ning naturally didn't understand the pain in his words. He just thought that he disliked the small and shabby place where he lived, so he said unhappily, "This is the condition of my family. If you can't accept it, then leave..."
Before he could even utter the word "get out", Zhuang Hongwen had already sat down on a small stool in the yard. "I can bear it, I can bear it. I think this yard is pretty good. Don't chase me away..."
That strange feeling came up again. Shen Ning looked at him wearing a well-tailored suit and a watch on his hand that was obviously worth a lot of money. But now he was sitting on a small stool with a wronged look on his face. It was really incongruous.
At this time, Jiang Yuanyuan and Shen Yue came back from next door. They were stunned when they saw the stranger in the yard.
Coal Ball swung its tail, bared its teeth, and immediately rushed forward. The middle-aged man who was originally sitting on a small stool was startled and stood up suddenly, trying to block Shen Ning...
Seeing that Meiqiu was about to pounce again, Shen Ning shouted, "Sit down!"
As soon as the words fell, Zhuang Hongwen and Meiqiu sat down at the same time. For a moment, the man and the dog stared at each other with confusion in their eyes...
Shen Ning couldn't help but curl his eyebrows and coughed twice, "I'm not talking about you.
Sorry, this is my dog, named Coal Ball. Did I scare you just now? "
Zhuang Hongwen wiped the sweat from his forehead, suppressed his fear of dogs, and said against his will, "No... no, you have raised this dog very well. It looks strong and sturdy. It is most suitable for guarding the house. The safety of you two sisters is also guaranteed..."
Seeing that his face was pale, Shen Ning reached out and helped him up again, "Go sit in the main room, I'll pour you a glass of water. Do you need me to help you contact your family and ask them to pick you up?"
Zhuang Hongwen was stunned for a moment, and refused repeatedly, "No... no need, my secretary will come back to pick me up later, I... am I causing you trouble.
If you have something to do, just go ahead and do it. I'll wait at the entrance of the alley."
His attitude was sincere and his tone was full of concern, which reminded Shen Ning of his father Shen Huai. His heart was slightly beating. He turned around, added half a cup of spiritual spring water into his cup, and then handed it to him.
Zhuang Hongwen took a sip of water and tasted it sweet. The panic and weakness he felt also eased a lot.
He originally thought that he would be alone for the rest of his life and was prepared to live out his life in solitude, but he didn't expect that Su Yue'er would give birth to a daughter for him.
It's a pity that she had been hiding it from me before, and I found out too late.
He looked around at the simple environment and felt that his daughter had suffered a great crime. She should have been the apple of his eye, raised in luxury under his careful care, but now...
He couldn't help but follow Shen Ning with his eyes, just wanting to know more about her.
Jiang Yuanyuan was very curious about this handsome uncle who suddenly appeared, or rather, she had no resistance to anyone who looked good.
Zhuang Hongwen also cooperated in chatting with her, but his attention was always on Shen Ning.
"My last name is Zhuang Hongwen. I have been living abroad for recuperation due to health problems in my early years. I just returned to China recently. Thank you for saving me today. I don't know what to call you yet."
"My name is Shen Ning, this is my sister Shen Yue, and my good friend Jiang Yuanyuan."
"Shen Ning..."
Even though he already knew her name, Zhuang Hongwen couldn't help but repeat it out loud at this moment.
"'One cannot achieve his ambitions without being indifferent, and one cannot achieve his goals without being calm', what a good name. I'm sure your parents must have great expectations of you..."
Shen Ning was stunned and couldn't help laughing. "No, my father said that when I was a child, I cried every night and couldn't be comforted no matter what. It gave him a headache, so he named me "Ning" in the hope that I could be quieter..."
Zhuang Hongwen couldn't help laughing after hearing this, but he felt extremely regretful in his heart. If she could grow up by his side, even if she cried and made a scene, even if his hair turned white in order to comfort her, that would still be happiness...
Jiang Yuanyuan also laughed so hard that she doubled over. "Ever since I met you, you have been so calm, as if you wouldn't be afraid even if the sky fell. I really can't imagine you crying as a child.
By the way, Uncle Zhuang, you are back from abroad, but what about your family? Did they come back with you?"
Zhuang Hongwen chuckled and said, "I have been alone abroad for so many years and have not started a family. This time I came back and happened to hear news about an old friend, so I hurried back.
Unfortunately, I came back too late, she had passed away, and I missed a lot..."
Jiang Yuanyuan shut up instantly, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring up your sad story."
Zhuang Hongwen: "It's okay, there are eight out of ten things in this world that are not satisfactory, I'm used to it.
If possible, I hope to find the orphan of this deceased person. I just want to do my best to take good care of her, which will also make up for the regret in my heart..."
Zhuang Hongwen finished speaking, and his deep gaze met Shen Ning's slightly curious eyes...
His eyes were full of hope, desire, and a hint of uneasiness...
Shen Ning turned his head slightly away, and that strange feeling resurfaced. He always felt that Uncle Zhuang's appearance was inexplicable, as if... as if he had come all the way to find him...
Shen Ning took a deep breath. She didn't want to go into it. She stood up and said to Zhuang Hongwen, "It's too late. We have to go back to school. You..."
Zhuang Hongwen immediately realized that she was trying to get rid of him, and said in a gentlemanly manner, "My assistant should be here too. I'll go with you. Where do you go to school? It's too late now. It's not safe for you two little girls to walk at night. I'll take you back to school..."
