Chapter 1409: The Song Couple (137)
Song Yiyan watched as the two children left with her grandfather before pointing at Ji Xing fiercely. “You did it on purpose, didn’t you?”
He had brought Little Sangyu and Xiaoqi here on purpose for his grandfather, even though he knew how envious his grandfather was of the fact that others had grandchildren.
“Let’s have one too.” Ji Xing looked at her and smiled without any temper.
“Get lost!” Song Yiyan gritted her teeth.
So he ran away early in the morning to do this. To think that she thought he was so serious that he went to work to earn money!
Song Chen took the two little kids out for a walk, feeling extremely happy.
The military compound was very lively every day.
Early in the morning, there were people taking strolls and playing chess.
Song Chen followed the two little kids on both sides. He straightened his back wherever he went. When asked, he said that they were his great-grandchildren.
Soon, he showed off to a pavilion not far away. A few old men were playing chess, they were all his best friends.
“Old Song, you’re late today. Why are you only here now?” Old Chen held the chess piece and knew who it was without turning around.
...
“Ahem.” Song Chen patted Xiaoqi’s head, his face smiling like a flower. He was extremely proud.
“h.e.l.lo, grandfathers.”
Xiaoqi and Little Sangyu stood together and greeted them in unison.
“Yo, where did such a beautiful child come from?” Old Lin’s eyes lit up. “Old Song, where did you kidnap this child from?”
The few of them had similar situations at home. They were old, retired, and their grandchildren were all grown up. However, they did not get married or have children, so they spent their time together every day.
Old Song had been doing well in the past two months. Not only did his granddaughter come back to live, she even brought back a handsome and sensible grandson-in-law. They were so envious.
As the saying goes, good things happen one after another. Didn’t they send another invitation last week? His grandson was getting engaged. After getting engaged, wouldn’t they get married? Wouldn’t he have a great-grandson after they got married?
The few of them were envious. Why did all the good things go to him?
This time, he brought two cute little kids over. They looked so cute that they wanted to hug and pinch them.
“What do you mean kidnapped? This is my great-grandson and great-granddaughter.” When Song Chen heard this, he was unhappy. “You old fellows are just jealous of me.”
Old Chen pursed his lips. “Tell me the truth. Where did you borrow the child from? Your Yanyan isn’t married, and your third son has just gotten engaged. Why is the child already so big?”
“That’s not right. Why do these two children look so familiar?” Old He took a closer look and pointed at Xiaoqi. “Are you Xiaoqi?”
Xiaoqi nodded. “Do you know me, Grandpa?”
“You must be a child of the Huo family!” Old He slapped his forehead and remembered.
Old Huo had never gotten along with them in the past. How old was he now? He was still throwing a tantrum like a child.
However, he did not know when he had added them on WeChat. Apparently he had added everyone in Beijing who could be added on WeChat.
He didn’t want anything else, he just wanted to post on his social media to show off his precious granddaughter and his great-grandson. He posted photos and videos every day.
After hearing that his granddaughter had entered the entertainment industry, he even started to chase after celebrities. What kind of Weibo did young people use? He learned everything there is to learn.
“Hahaha.” Old Chen laughed out loud and pointed at him. “You old thing, you still want to lie to us? Why did you bring the child of the Huo family here? Aren’t you afraid that Huo Xiao will come and ask you for him?”
Huo Xiao had a strange temper. When he was young, he was not on the same side and social circle as them.
In their circle, he mocked them for being a group of uncultured big shots who only knew how to shout and kill every day. He thought that they were weak scholars who only knew how to talk.
At the end of the day, it was a thousand-year feud between civil servants and military officials.
“I’m afraid? Why should I be afraid of him?” Song Chen snorted. “I’m not afraid even if he comes over. This is my great-grandson and great-granddaughter.”
When Xiaoqi heard her mention his great-grandfather, he looked up. “My great-grandfather is not such an unreasonable person.”
Old Chen laughed. “Look, Huo Xiao didn’t dote on you for nothing. You protected him without hesitation, grandpa won’t say anything else.”
Was Huo Xiao reasonable?
When has he ever been reasonable with anyone? With his violent temper, he was even simpler and rougher than them.
“Grandpa, are you friends of my great-grandfather?” Little Sangyu asked.
“Friends?” He thought for a moment, then said, “We’re friends.”
Xiaoqi and Little Sangyu were very happy. Great-grandfather had so many friends.
Song Chen came over, he was a lousy chess player who couldn’t play well. He just happened to like playing chess and liked to go back on his words.
In addition, he had the highest prestige among them. They were all his former subordinates. Every time he lost, he would use his status to suppress them.
Sometimes, Old Chen and the others were so angry that they didn’t want to talk to him for half a month. However, they had been friends for decades and knew that he had a bad temper, so they couldn’t really be angry with him.
“Xiaoqi, do you know how to play chess?” Old He asked when he saw the little guy looking at the chessboard seriously.
“Yes.” Xiaoqi nodded.
“Then tell me, where should you go next?” Old He was interested.
His grandson was not interested in chess. Not many of the younger children in the courtyard knew how to play chess.
How old was this kid? He even knew how to play chess?
Xiaoqi shook his head and said seriously, “Grandpa He, you’re a gentleman.”
His words amused the group of people.
Old He shook his head and sighed. “Old Song, look at this. Even children know this.”
Old Song was the one who played chess with him. He always played dirty so no one wanted to play with him, he stood at the side and commanded blindly.
Song Chen glared at him and smiled at the little guy. “Then Xiaoqi, can you help Grandpa?”
When Xiaoqi sat on the stone bench, he straightened his back and looked serious. The elders could not help but admire the Huo family’s upbringing.
Look at this child. At such a young age, he was a gentleman. He had taught him well!
He only saw Old Huo posting all sorts of things about this child on his social media every day. He knew that he was his granddaughter’s G.o.dson, but he didn’t know who his father was.
The child was so good-looking and sensible. His father was definitely not an ordinary person.
“Xiaoqi, where did your parents go? Why did they let you come over?” Old Chen was also curious about who the child’s father was.
Looking at the child, he definitely did not take after Old Huo’s family. With Old Huo’s temper, there was no need to mention Huo Ci.
When Huo Ci was young, those who had not been beaten up by him before were too embarra.s.sed to say that they were from the Beijing circle. The boys in the courtyard had all been beaten up by him. They could not get back at him even if they went at him together, he was very fierce.
