Dripping Grace

Holding the note in his hand, Fang Yu walked in an old one-story building area, frowning secretly.

He must have had his head caught by the door, why would he suddenly want to eat something at Chu Yan's house.

Fortunately, it is winter now, so there is no disgusting smell wafting from the huge trash can by the roadside.

Speaking of which, it is only a wall away from the community where Huo Siyu lives, but the standard of living is far apart.

But come here, there is no reason to go back halfway.

Fang Yu was patient and slowly went deep into the back alley.

Just as he was feeling dizzy, he suddenly heard footsteps in front of him, and when he looked up, he saw a person coming towards him:

"I'm afraid you won't find it. I've been waiting for you here for a long time. How did you get here?"

While talking, Chu Yan unceremoniously took the things in Fang Yu's hand.

When Fang Yu came to eat, he would naturally not come empty-handed, so he bought a fruit basket nearby.

"He came by taxi." Fang Yu looked around, not looking directly at Chu Yan.

"My house is a bit remote, don't dislike it."

Fang Yu said "hmm" and didn't speak.

Whether you don't like it or not, don't people all come?

The last door in the last alley is Chu Yan's house.

Fang Yu thought that it was indeed remote enough.

Entering the gate, looking around, the first thing that catches the eye is that there are all kinds of garbage piled up in the porch-water bottles, cans, cardboard boxes and so on.

It seems that the old lady is still picking up trash.

Going in again is a small square yard with a small kitchen on the left.

Entering the living room of the main house, there is an old-fashioned big butt color TV, a sofa and coffee table, and some simple daily necessities.

The old lady enthusiastically led Fang Yu in to sit down, pour water and get fruits.

"Young man, you saved me last time, but I never had a chance to thank you properly."

The old lady was in a coma last time. Now when he looked carefully, Fang Yu found that apart from being very old, the old man had a peaceful temperament in his cloudy eyes, which was very similar to Chu Yan.

"It's nothing, Grandma Chu, it's just what I should do. If it were someone else, they wouldn't die."

"But it's not someone else, and there is no one else, but you, isn't it? And you are Xiao Yan's classmate, this is really fate."

Fang Yu didn't want to put on airs in front of the old man, so he smiled casually: "Yeah, I didn't expect it either, it really is fate."

The old man pulled Fang Yu and said a lot of polite words, and then he got up and went to the kitchen to cook. Chu Yan was going to help, but was stopped, and asked him to stay with Fang Yu.

Fang Yu looked at the room casually. The decoration in the room was very simple, but it was also very clean. It could be seen that the old lady was a diligent person.

"Which is your room?" Fang Yu asked casually.

Chu Yan pointed to the big bedroom: "This room has big windows, and grandma let me live in it. Grandma lives in the small bedroom inside."

"Your grandma is so kind to you."

Chu Yan smiled and said nothing.

Of course grandma is kind to him, and he will be kind to grandma, because in this world, they are each other's only close relatives.

"Would you like to take a look at my room?" Chu Yan saw Fang Yu's eyes kept looking at the big bedroom, so he got up and invited Fang Yu.

Fang Yu followed him into the bedroom, and took a panoramic view of the past.

The windows are indeed quite big. There are wardrobes, desks, and beds in the room. It is simple and clean, without clutter.

There are no miscellaneous books on the desk, all are textbooks issued by high school.

There was an exercise book on the table, and Fang Yu flipped through it casually.

"Did you not do your homework?"

Chu Yan asked him.

"What are you doing? Didn't you have you?" Fang Yu lowered his head and said, his eyes fell on the words in Chu Yan's exercise book.

Chu Yan's handwriting is good, people like him, the pen is calm, retractable, and there is a slight jumping tendency at the bend, revealing a trace of dreamlike elegance.

"You are so smart, you can do it by yourself, just take a little time."

Fang Yu raised his head from Chu Yan's writing, looked at Chu Yan's thin face, and said, "Cut!".

"Why? Want to educate me?"

Chu Yan smiled and shook his head.

His smile is not often seen, so Fang Yu feels better when he sees him.

"Which one of us is older?" Fang Yu suddenly asked.

Chu Yan reported the date of birth.

"I'm six months older than you, you can't educate me!" Fang Yu said again.

"If you don't want to study, why go to No. [-] Middle School?"

"Hmph, do you think I want to come in? It's just dawdling."

Chu Yan knew this was the truth.Fang Yu is not like him, his family is rich, even if he does not pass the college entrance examination, he will have a good future.

Chu Yan cut an apple that had been peeled into small pieces, removed the core, and handed it to Fang Yu with a plate.

"It's not education, it's just trying to help you. There's nothing I can do to help you."

After hearing this, Fang Yu carefully looked at Chu Yan's face.

Recently, Chu Yan approached Fang Yu with a low profile. Many students who didn't know the inside story thought he was out of flattery, because Fang Yu's family was rich and powerful.

In fact, Fang Yu is a little unclear whether Chu Yan's desire to repay his kindness is adulterated.

Seeing Chu Yan's appearance at this time, I couldn't help teasing him:

"Come on, you! Don't always act like 'benefactor, I want to promise you with my body'!"

Fang Yu's words made Chu Yan stunned.

"I...do I have it?" Chu Yan didn't think he was exaggerating that much, did he?It's just that he wants to do something for Fang Yu with his meager strength.

"Yes, of course there is."

Chu Yan laughed again without saying a word.

Fang Yu looked at the evenly sized apples in front of him, and picked up a piece to save face and ate it.

The taste was not bad, better than expected, so I ate another piece, and then it was a whole plate.

Because of the preparations in advance, Grandma Chu cooked very quickly, and soon called Chu Yan to serve the dishes.

Braised pork ribs, sweet and sour fish, diced spicy chicken, plus two seasonal stir-fries, a cold dish, and a bowl of vermicelli soup.

Fang Yu glanced at the whole table, the color and fragrance, at least it looks passable.

Secondly, there are no dishes he dislikes. It is estimated that Chu Yan has gained experience in helping to run errands during this period, and knows what he should avoid.

After taking two casual bites, Fang Yu was shocked instantly.

The taste is really... so delicious.

Fang Yu really didn't have any hope at the beginning, but he agreed to Chu Yan to come to eat for some reason, but due to the surrounding environment, Fang Yu didn't expect to have a good meal today.

The result was unexpected...

Fang Yu looked up at the wrinkled Grandma Chu. It was really difficult to connect the old lady picking up trash in the trash can with the one in front of her.

Grandma Chu saw Fang Yu looking at her, and asked with a smile: "How is it? Are you still used to eating?"

Fang Yu nodded vigorously: "It's delicious, much better than my nanny's cooking."

Grandma Chu nodded in satisfaction and said, "Eat more if it tastes good. If you don't dislike it, come and play often."

Fang Yu chomped down on the food and agreed indiscriminately.

It turned out that Grandma Chu's cooking was so delicious that Chu Yan could take it orally.

He immediately remembered that Chu Yan usually brought a lunch box to school and never ate food from the school cafeteria.

In the past, he simply thought that Chu Yan's family was poor and didn't want to spend money on it. Only now did he realize that Grandma Chu's fried dishes were so delicious.

However, the meals that Chu Yan usually brings are not so much meaty, they are all seasonal vegetables, and there are large carts of stalls on the street to sell them.

Thinking of this, Fang Yu couldn't help picking up a large piece of ribs, and before he could react, he put it in Chu Yan's bowl.

Chu Yan was taken aback for a moment, then smiled at Fang Yu, and said "Thank you."

At lunch the next day, Fang Yu stared at Chu Yan's lunch box eagerly, and grabbed a piece of spicy fried cabbage from him.

Chu Yan couldn't laugh or cry, and finally pushed the whole lunch box in front of Fang Yu.

"If you like the dishes my grandma cooks, then I'll bring an extra copy. You figure out the menu, and I'll ask my grandma to follow suit. She worked as a housekeeper when she was young, and she can't handle ordinary dishes. "

Fang Yu pulled the only vegetable leaf left in the lunch box, agreed, and said vaguely with rice in his mouth: "Tomorrow I will eat sweet and sour fish, and today's dish."

Chu Yan nodded and said yes.

"I'll give you money."

"Need not."

"use."

Chu Yan didn't speak.

The next day Chu Yan brought Fang Yu's favorite dishes and put them in the thermos he bought yesterday.

And Fang Yu threw out a stack of banknotes and handed them to Chu Yan.

Chu Yan pushed the lunch box and banknotes to Fang Yu.

"Eat quickly, it won't cost much."

"I won't eat if you don't want money!"

Chu Yan didn't answer, just looked down at the book.

Fang Yu threw the money to Chu Yan again.

Chu Yan frowned and returned the money to him.

"I'm not begging for food!" Fang Yu said while pushing the money over.

"I know you have money, but this is what grandma and I should do for you." Chu Yan handed over the money again.

Fang Yu finally got angry, stood up abruptly, took the lunch box to the trash can, threw the lunch box in with his hands, then walked back to his seat with a cold expression, grabbed the money on it, and gave one to Chu Yan, It's compensation for throwing away the lunch box.

"Understood, I won't bother you and your grandma in the future." He said, put the rest of the money in his pocket, got up and went to the cafeteria.

Chu Yan was stunned in his seat for a long time before slowly regaining his senses.

It is said that if you have money, you will be self-willed, and sure enough... it is self-willed enough.

Fang Yu saved his grandma, and cooking a few meals for him was a chance he and his grandma could only wish for to repay their gratitude.who knows……

Chu Yan went to the trash can, picked up the expensive thermos bucket, and took home the food in it, which was enough for him and grandma for two days!

The next day, Chu Yan took the lunch box and put it on Fang Yu's table as usual.

Fang Yu took a look, Chu Yan was still calm and composed.

Fang Yu took out the money from his pocket and threw it to Chu Yan.

Chu Yan picked it up and counted it carefully, then turned out a blank homework book, wrote and drew on it, and handed it to Fang Yu.

"What?" Fang Yu glanced twice, but didn't understand.

"The bill. The top is the total amount of money you gave, and the bottom is the price of raw materials and processing fees for today's meals. I will record it every day, and pay it once a month. Is it okay? This is fair to you and me. ?”

Fang Yu dismissed it: "If you don't find it troublesome, you can memorize it. You don't need to show it to me after memorizing it. I can't understand it anyway!"

After speaking, I couldn't wait to open the lunch box, and the aroma rushed to my face.

After a while, Chen Feng and Liu Jiantong came over, tasted a few mouthfuls and were full of praise. The three of them snapped up the lunch boxes in a hurry, and the lunch boxes were sold out after a while.

"Chu Yan, it seems that you have to ask Grandma Chu to do more tomorrow!" Chen Feng said seriously.

Chu Yan slowly ate the vegetarian dishes in his lunch box, nodded lightly, but there was a slight smile in the corner of his eyes.
