Zhang Heng pasted the Spring Festival couplets and the character "Fu" in front of the door, then took two steps back to make sure both sides were aligned.
There was one thing he couldn't figure out. With the continuous development of the economy, almost all products were constantly improving. In addition to functions, more and more attention was paid to design. However, the Spring Festival couplets were always so tacky. It was almost the Year of the Dog, and the couplets sold in supermarkets and on the roadside had all been added with dog elements. In terms of design, those cartoon images were almost the same as ten years ago, and everyone seemed to have gotten used to this style.
It seemed that everyone had subconsciously accepted this matter. They thought that the Spring Festival couplets should be this tacky. If they weren't tacky, they wouldn't be traditional enough. But in reality, the real traditional Spring Festival couplets from hundreds of years ago didn't have these messy cartoon elements.
…
While pasting the couplets, Zhang Heng met a little girl knocking on the door of Tian Tian's house across the street. It seemed that she was Tian Tian's classmate, and Tian Tian's mother warmly welcomed her into the house. This seemed to prove that Tian Tian was indeed very popular in school.
According to her mother, after these misfortunes happened to Tian Tian, many of her classmates had come to visit her, encouraging her to work hard to recover and get out of her predicament. Her family had also been by her side, actively looking for ways to treat her.
Now that the root cause of Tian Tian's autism had been found and dealt with by Zhang Heng, the family should be able to enjoy a peaceful and happy Spring Festival.
Zhang Heng's parents' flight was expected to arrive at 7: 20 pm. As the Spring Festival approached, the number of passengers at transportation centers increased as well. To prevent traffic jams or a lack of parking spaces, Zhang Heng and his grandfather left home an hour and a half earlier than usual.
As expected, they ran into a series of rear-end collisions on the airport highway. Fortunately, there were no casualties, and by the time the traffic police dealt with the accident, there was not much time left. Coincidentally, the other flight was also delayed.
So when the two circled the airport parking lot twice and found a parking space, the plane had not yet landed.
Grandpa was dressed very formally tonight. He had even taken out his 20-year-old French leather shoes. His hair was meticulously combed. Although he had always been very dissatisfied with a certain pair of immortals, it had been three years since they had last seen each other. He still took this reunion very seriously.
The two of them squeezed through the crowd and arrived at the arrival gate on the second floor. There were quite a lot of people there. Most of them were waiting for their relatives like them. There were also some people who were holding up signs to pick up people.
Zhang Heng looked at the watch on his hand. Although there was a traffic jam on the road, the plane was about 30 minutes late. Including the time it would take to collect their luggage, they would have to wait for at least 40 minutes. "Why don't you go back to the car first? I'll wait here," Zhang Heng said to the driver.
"Don't worry about me. I'm not that old. I didn't dress like this just to sit in the car." Grandpa shook his head.
"Well, I'll buy two drinks," Zhang Heng said. "What do you want to drink?"
"Mineral water is fine."
Zhang Heng squeezed his way to the convenience store and grabbed two bottles of Baishiyama from the shelf. When he paid, the cashier swiped 24 yuan from his Alipay account.
"…"
The only thing that was more profitable than drug trafficking was the mineral water at the airport.
As soon as Zhang Heng paid the bill, there was a commotion at the arrival gate.
During the holidays, there was a surge of people in the airport. Because everyone was crowded together, it was inevitable that their bodies would come into contact. In the end, a man took this opportunity to lean his body against a young woman. He held a magazine in one hand and covered his other hand.
The young woman seemed to notice something and moved her body. Soon, the man leaned against her again. The woman was obviously a little uneasy, but probably because she was too embarrassed to talk about it, and she wasn't sure if it was an accident, she moved her body again. The man didn't manage to catch a glimpse of her. When he saw his target, he quickly changed to another person.
As soon as he approached, a serious voice came from behind, "Young man, you're so young. Does your family know about this?"
The man turned around and saw that the person who spoke was an old man in his sixties. His hair was white, and he wore a gray, old-school windbreaker with a sweater underneath. His shoes were polished.
"Psycho." The man was startled for a moment before he cursed. Seeing the gazes of the people around him, especially the woman he had accidentally touched before, looking at him with suspicion, he also felt a little guilty. He glared fiercely at the nosy old man and turned around to leave.
However, the next moment, a figure blocked his way. It was a young man who looked like a student, holding two bottles of mineral water in his hand.
The man was angry, and he was in a hurry to leave. When he saw this, he was a little angry and wanted to say, "Get lost." However, when he looked into the man's eyes, he felt a chill in his heart, and he couldn't say the word.
At this time, he saw two security guards not far away walking towards him. The man suddenly panicked and shouted, "What are you doing?!"
On the other side, the nosy old man had already walked towards the two security guards. "Comrade, he molested a woman. I saw it."
The two security guards nodded. "Old sir, leave it to us." After that, they came to the man and said, "Sir, come with us."
"Why? I didn't do anything. Don't listen to his nonsense. How old is he? His eyesight is already bad," the man said angrily.
"My eyesight is still 1.0. I don't even need to wear reading glasses to read the newspaper," the old man said.
"Come with us. If you really didn't do anything, the surveillance will prove your innocence," the security guard said politely.
The man looked at his belly and estimated that he couldn't outrun the other party. Reluctantly, he left with the two security guards.
Zhang Heng nodded at a girl not far away. She was the one in front of him in the checkout line. When Zhang Heng saw the conflict, he asked the girl to look for the ground staff. He was worried that his grandfather would be taken advantage of, so he rushed over first. Now that the matter was over, he thanked the girl.
He then walked up to the old man. "Not bad. You're still as good as ever."
"This kind of thing would've been paraded through the streets in my era." Grandpa looked serious, paused, and said, "I'm an old man. Even if I stood up, he wouldn't dare to do anything to me. Why did you block him at the end? It was unnecessary."
"It won't happen again." Zhang Heng smiled and didn't explain anything.
