Grandpa's birthday party came as scheduled.
Cheng Xiang asked for leave for the children and went there with Zhou Tianlei and their three children.
Zhou Tianxing took out a box from the room and held it carefully in his hands.
Cheng Xiang looked at it curiously, then leaned over and asked, "Tian Xing, what did you do?"
Zhou Tianxing smiled shyly and said, "We'll know when the time comes."
Zhou Yang was carrying a bag, slumped on his shoulders, covering it tightly.
"What are you talking about?" Cheng wanted to ask.
Zhou Yang said calmly: "This is a birthday gift for my great-grandpa."
Is this brat preparing a gift too? Cheng Xiang asked with a smile: "What gift did you prepare?"
Zhou Yang patted his bag and said like a little adult: "You will know when the time comes."
Very good, every one of them is quite mysterious.
The family drives off.
Several of Grandpa's comrades have been arranged at a guest house in the city, and Zhou He will be responsible for sending them to Grandpa's house.
Although it was my 70th birthday, it was not a big deal.
The army planned to hold a celebration ceremony at the retirement home, but my grandfather refused.
When people get old, what they want is reunion. Having a few friends and being surrounded by relatives makes you feel very happy.
The leaders of the military region and the person in charge of the retirement office sent flower baskets, talked with grandpa for a while, then got up and left.
So only close relatives and friends are left at home.
Cheng thought that when they arrived, Cheng Wanshan and the others had already arrived.
Several children were running and playing in the yard. Zhou Yang and Qing'er knew each other well, so they followed along.
Zhou Tianxing found a corner, holding his box and sitting quietly.
After looking around, he didn't see Jiang Yi, so he probably went to pick up the guard.
Some of Grandpa's friends came over with their families to celebrate their birthday. Grandpa accompanied everyone in the living room to chat. When he saw Cheng Xiang coming over, he pulled Cheng Xiang and Zhou Tianlei to introduce them one by one.
When he walked up to a white-haired grandpa, grandpa introduced him: "Think about it, this is grandpa's best friend, Fan Qishan, grandpa Fan. He is a high-tech talent. He has participated in the design and manufacturing of the country's atomic bomb, and he is a hero of the country. "
Cheng Xiang couldn't help but be in awe: "Hello, Grandpa Fan."
Grandpa Fan said with a smile: "Don't listen to your grandpa's exaggerations. He just contributed a little to national defense construction."
He looked at Cheng Xiang and said with a smile: "When Jiang Lai was a child, he was the most beautiful among them. Your granddaughter is even more amazing. You are more beautiful than her mother. Lao Jiang, you are so lucky."
Grandpa said politely: "This is genetic, you know? Lao Fan, you who are doing scientific research should understand that genetics is the appearance passed down from ancestors."
Grandpa Fan pointed at Grandpa: "You are really shameless. If you hadn't been so shameless and deceived Jun Qing by any means to improve your family's genes, you would have stopped bragging about your family's ancestral appearance."
Everyone burst out laughing, and grandma even angrily scolded grandpa: "I'm not serious."
Grandpa Fan shouted outside: "Pingping, come here."
"Hey, here we come." With a crisp response, a bright and elegant girl ran in from outside.
"What's wrong, Grandpa?" She walked to Grandpa Fan and asked.
Grandpa Fan pointed at Cheng and wanted to say: "This is Grandpa Jiang's granddaughter, called Xiangxiang. You are of the same age and should get to know each other."
Grandpa said to the side: "Yes, yes, we are old, we should let these children get to know each other, and don't break our friendship."
Everyone nodded in agreement after hearing this.
The original owner knew many of the children of my grandfather's friends when he was a child. However, the original owner had been a bit arrogant since he was a child and did not bother to make friends with anyone else except Gu Minglang.
Coupled with her aggressive appearance and personality, others also stayed away from her.
As a result, she was actually not familiar with many people.
Cheng Xiang looked up at the girl and politely extended his hand to say hello: "Hello, Cheng Xiang."
The girl shook hands with Cheng Xiang with a smile on her face: "Hello, I'm Fan Xinping." She let out a sigh when she saw Cheng Xiang's face clearly.
After thinking for a moment, he pointed at Cheng and wanted to say: "Is that you?"
Cheng Xiang looked at her doubtfully, "Know?" No impression.
Fan Xinping took Cheng Xiang's hand and almost jumped up: "Don't you remember? In the park, my sister fell into the water and you saved her."
Cheng Xiang suddenly realized, and when he looked carefully, he did look familiar. That time she took her children to the city to visit the park, and when they were taking a boat, they met a girl who fell into the water. It was Tianxing who saved the girl.
"Oh, yes, now that I think about it, it's you." Cheng Xiang was also surprised.
Fan Xinping excitedly said to her grandfather: "Grandpa, it was a boy she brought who saved Mengmeng."
The old man was also surprised and said: "Really? What a coincidence? Is that boy here?"
Cheng Xiang responded quickly: "Here he comes, it's my lover's brother, his name is Zhou Tianxing."
Cheng Xiang turned around and motioned to Zhou Tianlei to call Zhou Tianxing over.
Fan Xinping also happily went out to call her sister.
Zhou Tianxing stood awkwardly among the elders, facing the scrutinizing gazes of the elders. It was like a ray of light on his back, and he felt like he was being judged.
"This guy is good. I've always liked him. I didn't expect him to dare to go into the water to save people. He's so courageous. Oh my god. Grandpa was right about you." Grandpa was the first to praise.
"Good boy, a bit manly."
“What a commendable courage”
"Being able to go into the water to save people shows that you have good water skills and good physical strength."
"Hey, the Army needs people like this. They have good physical strength and can travel long distances."
"I'm good at water. I should join the navy."
"That's wrong. Look at his height and condition. Lao Jiang, he can try to be a pilot."
Why is it that while talking, it has become a recruiting scene? Our family Tianxing also wants to go to college. Cheng Xiang muttered in his heart.
"Come on Mengmeng, come and see your savior." Fan Xinping led a little girl over.
The little girl stood still in front of the person, glanced at Zhou Tianxing, and tilted her head for a while: "Yes, it's you, but why have you grown so tall?"
It is true that Zhou Tianxing's size has grown rapidly during this period. In one summer vacation, he grew nearly 5 centimeters, but he looked much taller than he did back then.
Zhou Tianxing's face turned red and he smiled shyly.
The little girl looked about 10 years old, with snow-white skin and big and shining eyes. She was wearing a skirt and looked petite standing next to Tianxing. She looked at Zhou Tianxing with eyes full of admiration and gratitude.
Cheng Xiang looked at the pair of villains with a smile, and the damn feeling of CP in his heart came back to life.
After a while of pleasantries, it was time to give gifts.
There were cigarettes, wine, and tea. Cheng Wanshan gave his grandfather a painting and calligraphy by a famous artist. He was used to being arty.
But my grandpa was born a rough man, so how could he know anything about calligraphy and painting? Holding it in his hand, he pretended to appreciate it and sighed a few times: "Not bad, not bad."
