He Yuanyuan only has 160 gold coins now, and there are a total of [-] kinds of special food. Currently, only two kinds are on the shelves, and he has to choose seven kinds to put on the shelves to meet the system requirements.

He chose some of the more popular ones in the store: lotus leaf and lotus root balls, custard buns, mother's handmade double-skin milk, imperial peach crisps, deer antler porridge, and spiked potatoes. Upgraded the Drunken Dream Rice Balls.

Half of the gold coins disappeared in an instant. It was really difficult to save them, and they were like running water when they were spent, and they were gone in an instant.

Cheng Zixing is a very fashionable old man.

Although he is over [-] years old, he has never refused to accept his age, and thinks he is more fashionable than many young people. For example, he likes to read online novels, catch up on dramas online, and likes to shop online from time to time.

A few days ago, his granddaughter sent him a link to the online store, saying that although the items in the store are a bit expensive, they are very popular among her classmates. She begged her grandpa to buy them for her too, and specially specified that he wanted lotus leaves, lotus root balls and Rose jujube tea.

Old man Cheng clicked in and took a look. The price in the store almost scared him to a heart attack. Today's young people really don't take money seriously, it's just a drink. He really doesn't understand how it can be so expensive.

He resolutely rejected his granddaughter's request at that time, but the little girl was sweet-mouthed and acted like a baby, and besides, she had never asked him for anything. Old man Cheng finally softened his heart and agreed to buy it for his granddaughter once.

"Thank you grandpa, I love you so much! But please don't tell my mother! She hates me for thinking about these beauty methods, but the products sold in this store are really effective. Several of my classmates have tried them. I promise there will be no side effects!" The little granddaughter urged her grandfather earnestly on the other end of the phone.

Old man Cheng has no objection to little girls' love of beauty, it's human nature, his deceased old woman at the age of her granddaughter also likes to study different packaging, but in his eyes, they all have the same sandalwood powder and lip balm .

Since Old Man Cheng agreed to his granddaughter, he opened the website happily. His movements were a little slow, but he was very skilled. After a while, he found the two items his granddaughter wanted and put them in the shopping cart.

The things in this store look a little strange, but they are just snacks and drinks, but they are as expensive as the game, and I don't know what these young people think nowadays.Old man Cheng felt strange, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a drunken dream dumpling, and clicked in curiously.

He loves wine by nature, and when he saw something related to wine, he couldn't help but take a look.

The introduction of the page is very simple, just write a sentence: Dream about the person you want to see.

Old man Cheng stopped his hand and stared blankly at that sentence for a long time.

His hair is all white, his face is full of wrinkles, his hands and feet are not as brisk as when he was young, and his old woman has been gone for almost 20 years.

In the past 20 years, he has never dreamed of his old woman.

The son sometimes joked that Mom had never left any regrets in her life, so there was no need to talk about it in her dreams. The old man only nodded silently, but he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. Leaving him as a lonely old man and not coming to talk to him at night, the days are really cold.

He really wanted to see the old woman again, to see if she still loves to smile and be beautiful, if she would dislike him for getting older, if he was hooked up by other lonely ghosts, or else why never Come back to see him?

Old man Cheng placed an order for three things out of nowhere, and only recovered when it was time to pay. Then he gritted his teeth and the money just went out. For an elderly person, this is really a luxury.

Well, I also rushed back to the fashion, trying new gadgets of young people, and the old man thought cheerfully, with some expectations and fear of disappointment.

The next morning, the package arrived.

The little granddaughter called him, saying that she would come over early in the morning on the next weekend, and asked her grandpa to pack the package for her. The old man Cheng agreed, and he hadn't put his mind on the phone for a long time. .

Zuimeng Xiaotangyuan looks like an ordinary bowl of fermented glutinous glutinous rice balls. He is a southerner. He liked to eat this when he was a child. It is fragrant and sweet, with some wine aroma, but not intoxicating. Especially in winter, a bowl of hot After eating glutinous glutinous rice balls, I feel warm all day long.

When his old woman was young, he liked it the most, and he liked it very much, but when he got older, his children and grandchildren asked him to eat less sugar, so he gradually stopped eating it.

Zuimeng Xiaotangyuan is served in a small glass bowl, covered with a glass lid with rubber, and tightly tied around with tape paper, without leaking at all, the old man Cheng struggled to unpack, His fingers were far less flexible than when he was young, and he struggled with the tape for a long time before finally pulling it off tremblingly.

As soon as the lid was lifted, a clear aroma of wine mixed with the sweet aroma of glutinous rice wafted out.

The fermented glutinous rice is light beige, and the small glutinous rice balls inside are as white as snow dumplings, sinking and floating, very cute.

Old man Cheng heated up this bowl of Zuimeng Xiaotangyuan with a microwave oven, the aroma became more intense, and the originally clear aroma of wine softened all of a sudden, just smelling it made people feel warm all over.

He picked up the small spoon that came with it, and ate the bowl of glutinous rice balls in a few strokes. A gust of hot air came up, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on the old man's forehead.

"It's been a long time since I felt so comfortable," he sighed comfortably, feeling that his old sense of taste and even his stomach were reactivated for a short time, as if he had really returned to the time when he was four or fifty years old and his body was healthy.

After eating, he walked a few more steps, and the old man was ready to take a lunch break.

Can you really dream of an old woman?He still had some doubts in his heart, and moved slowly to the bed.

As soon as he closed his eyes, a series of laughter came from behind him.

When he turned his head, the old woman had returned to the age when she just married him, her long dark hair was combed into two big braids, and her eyes smiled like a bay of spring water.

He looked at himself again, and he was back to the age of seventeen or eighteen years old. He was wearing a Confucian shirt, his skin was smooth, and he walked briskly.

He looked at his daughter-in-law and couldn't help laughing.

The two stood under the eaves of the old house in their hometown, smiling and looking at each other for a long time.The rainy season in the south of the Yangtze River is always lingering, and the rain curtains are hung on the tilted tiles all the time, which is fascinating.

Old man Cheng talked about his son's daughter-in-law in a long-winded manner. His son is now promising and has married a very capable daughter-in-law. He also has a young granddaughter who is now in high school. She is smart and cute. He talked about the old The house, the old neighbors, and the old tree in front of the door, some things have changed, and some things are still the same.

"Why don't you come to me all the time," the old man suddenly complained to his wife, "I think about it every night, but you never come."

His wife just pursed her lips and smiled.

"I...I miss you very much." He struggled for a long time before uttering this sentence, while he was speaking, he lowered his head and rubbed the rough stone ground with his shoes. He was not a sweet talker in his old life, and his words still followed the TV series. Learned.

"I miss you too." His daughter-in-law, who is much more generous than him, approached him affectionately and put her arms around his arms. "I often go to see you secretly."

"Then why don't you let me see you too? It's been 20 years." Old man Cheng was still not very happy.

Over there, he stroked his hair: "I just want to wait for you quietly. When you are here, we will go together again." These words made old man Cheng feel warm in his heart.

But he still felt uncomfortable, pulling his wife's hand, not wanting to wake up.

"You don't have to wait for a long time." His wife touched his face, which was young, handsome, and full of bookishness, without any trace of time. "Don't worry, I'll be right here waiting for you."

Then, she suddenly pushed the old man and woke him up.

Old man Cheng was smiling, but with tears in the corners of his eyes, he looked at the photo of the old woman beside the bed for a long time.

The next day, when his granddaughter came over, she thought grandpa looked weird.

He looked more energetic than usual, and he looked very happy, as if he had met a second spring.

The little girl smiled and asked: "Grandpa, you are not an old tree blooming, are you?"

"Little girl, you are talking nonsense!" Old man Cheng gave his granddaughter a sip, but he was not angry, he was still cheerful.

The little girl took a peek at her grandfather, wondering if something really happened?Grandma died before she was born, and her father had long hoped that grandpa would find another one, but he never thought it would be so sudden.

The little girl didn't think too much about it, and happily asked where the package was, and then retreated into the small room with the long-awaited lotus leaf lotus root balls and rose red date tea.

After a while, she bounced out again and asked her grandpa, "Grandpa, grandpa, have I become more beautiful?"

Old man Cheng looked his granddaughter up and down seriously: "Well, my granddaughter must be the most beautiful one!"

A few days later, he quietly gave his granddaughter a sum of money from his own house. It wasn't a lot of money, but it was already a huge sum of money for a high school student. The little girl was startled and didn't dare to ask for it.

"Whatever you are afraid of, just take it. If there is anything your mother refuses to buy for you, you can buy it yourself." Old man Cheng forced the money to her.

"When the time comes, I'll just ask Grandpa to buy it." The little girl acted like a baby without any worries.

"Silly boy, how can grandpa stay with you forever." Old man Cheng smiled kindly, and his granddaughter couldn't help but burst into tears for some reason, and it took a long time to stop.

Not long after, Old Man Cheng left. He left in his sleep, with a peaceful expression and no pain.

His granddaughter held the bankbook left by her grandfather and cried loudly.
