"Ouch."
The old man seemed a little surprised. Ye Xin was the one who translated every year during their video chat. Now she not only understands but can also speak. Not only was he surprised, but his mother Ye Xin was as well. His daughter seemed to suddenly be able to speak Chinese a few years ago, and her Mandarin was even better than his own.
"Gymnasium, why are you going there? Isn't it cold today? What are you wearing? It's so fancy."
"Well, we were rehearsing recently, and these are the costumes. Fortunately, there is heating in the room." The big condor answered tirelessly, "Grandpa, how are you doing?"
"Okay, pretty good."
Hearing his granddaughter thinking about him this way, a smile appeared on his majestic face.
My mother said that my grandpa is actually a very cheerful and approachable person, but at first glance, others may find him difficult to get along with. Maybe the appearance of the Great Condor has inherited her grandpa's genes to a certain extent.
"Where's grandma?" the great condor said with raised eyebrows.
"It's pretty good!" Maybe it's because I'm older and my ears are a bit hard, so my voice is a lot louder unconsciously.
The Great Condor looked at the phone with raised eyebrows. This was what she and Shiraishi Mai learned. Judging from their appearance alone, both of them are the kind of people who look stunning at first sight, but at the same time, their faces are very fierce. , will give people a feeling of 'don't mess with me'.
Maybe Ogami was ostracized in school not just because of her beauty. If people like her and Shiraishi Mai said something with their own opinions, they would be considered "What the hell, isn't it just because they are good-looking?" ." If you don't speak, you will be thought of as "What the hell, you look pretty but you have a shameless face."
Therefore, the Great Condor often observed Shiraishi Mai's behavior and found that she usually likes to raise her eyebrows. When someone calls her, she will raise her eyebrows. On the show, she always raises her eyebrows and opens her eyes. To a certain extent, It will give people the feeling that she is listening to me carefully, and at the same time, her face will be relatively softer when her brows are relaxed.
"#@#, eagle."
"ah?"
"Eagle!"
In the video, the old man moved his eyes to the other side, pulled his neck and shouted, spitting out a few rice grains, and then picked them up into the bowl without wasting them. The great condor couldn't help laughing as he watched here.
According to the pronunciation, they should also call the big condor 'taka', but the older generation people have trouble pronouncing it. It happens that Japanese also has Chinese characters, so they simply pronounce it according to the Chinese characters.
She hadn't heard her Chinese name for a long time. She thought about how to pronounce her name in Chinese. It seemed quite strange.
One is called 'Ookami taka' and the other is called 'dashen ying'. The pronunciation is completely different, so the question comes again. Why didn't my grandfather want a girl's name before he left? Wouldn't it be better to call you Okami Sakura?
Well, I have been carrying this name for more than ten years, so I have long been used to it.
As for the name the old man called just now, she didn't recognize it. It was quite vague. She had been calling her grandpa and grandma since she was a child, and she didn't even know her name.
After a while, an old lady got into the screen and squeezed the old man out.
"Ouch! Haha, oh my granddaughter." Obviously, the old lady was even more excited.
Oddly enough, the older generation generally favors sons over daughters, but Grandpa and his family love their daughters more.
"Grandma." The big condor said hello.
"Hey, okay, okay." The old lady's eyes narrowed. "I'm still cooking food in the kitchen. Xin, tell her, grandma is cooking first. You two will eat first, there are still two dishes left."
After saying that, the old lady left in a hurry, as if she was afraid that the food would be burnt. The phone screen began to shake, and the old man's face was displayed again, and there was also a new face, a middle-aged man with eyes, who looked quite handsome. Even the stubble showed that he was already quite old. He was probably the same back then. Absolutely handsome guy.
This is her uncle, who is also her mother’s brother. Her mother, Ye Xin, and her brother have grown up together and have a very good relationship. When I couldn’t sleep in the past, I would listen to her tell the great condor interesting things about her brother when she was a child. This story we I’ll talk about it later when I have the opportunity.
"Eagle."
"Uncle, happy New Year."
"Have a good New Year, have a good New Year, oh, you have really become a girl in your eighteenth year. When I hugged you before, you had a big nose, but now you are slim and tall, and you are getting more and more beautiful as you grow." My uncle said with a smile.
"My uncle hasn't changed in all these years. He hasn't aged at all."
"He can talk. This kid really knows how to talk. If my boy was half as sensible as you, I wouldn't have to worry so much."
My uncle's family was raising a son by himself. They got divorced early and he has been raising his son alone. His life can only be said to be decent.
In the past, during the Chinese New Year, we spent the whole year in Japan at the beginning of the year, and then the family went to China to celebrate again. Two old people, three adults, and four children, it was still very lively. Until a few years ago, Ogami Yuya's illness caused him to not return to his country for several years.
There is one person on the Big Condor side, two people on the other side of the phone, and between the two phone lines there are four people, mother, father, and two younger brothers. It can be said that we are celebrating the New Year remotely.
The time in Japan and China is almost the same, and they both have meals. Although they can't have the New Year's Eve dinner, they can still eat the dinner together.
The family was chatting while eating, but the father and two younger brothers, who did not speak Chinese, seemed too quiet, but the old man eating over there had sharp eyes.
"I don't want to eat green peppers..."
His younger brother, Dashen Liang, also took out the shredded green peppers that Ye Xin gave him with chopsticks and put them into Ye Xin's bowl. The old man couldn't understand Japanese, but he could tell that this kid was picky about his food.
"What, picky eater?"
The old man said calmly, and everyone fell silent. The majesty of the elders in the family was fully displayed at this moment. In addition, the two younger brothers were a little afraid of the old man, and now they are wilting.
"This one doesn't like to eat and that one doesn't like to eat. How will he deal with it in the future? What will he like to eat? After the conditions have improved, there are many problems. This person doesn't like to eat and that one doesn't like to eat. At that time, we wanted to eat but there were none of these things. Bad habit."
Listening to the old man scolding his younger brother, the big condor couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. He didn't know why, but as long as his younger brother was scolded, he would be very happy.
"Dad, Liang is still young, take your time in the future. Isn't there anything you don't like to eat?" Ye Xin, who loves her son, retorted slightly.
"That's not to say there is absolutely no chance. I haven't liked tomatoes since I was a child, but at that time our family only grew tomatoes. Then I have to overcome it." As he said this, the old man looked a little excited, " I’ve gotten rid of my bad habits, and now I’m no longer picky about food.”
After saying that, the old man took a chopstick of vegetables, put it into the bowl and took a bite.
At this time, the old lady came from the kitchen carrying a plate.
"Come on, the last dish, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, come on, while it's hot." The old lady put the dish on the table and sat down.
After finishing the cooking, the old man put down the bowl and was about to pick up the vegetables. He saw the bright red tomatoes and scrambled eggs, and his chopsticks were hovering in mid-air.
"I'm full." The old man put down his chopsticks and said to his son next to him: "Come on, let's drink."
