Previously, Yang Yi had promised Lan Xin that he would bring Murphy's concert in Taiwan, which was scheduled for the beginning of June. However, for this concert, Murphy had prepared for a long time. Yang Yi had also studied and practiced with her. They had even prepared a few new songs for this concert.
After all, this concert was held in Baobei City, Taiwan, which was also Murphy's hometown. It was also the place where Yang Chonggui had stayed for a few years before he went abroad. Therefore, this concert was of great significance to both Yang Yi and Murphy!
It was worth mentioning that for this trip to Taiwan, although Yang Chonggui was not willing to go with them, Xi Xi's grandfather, Mo Henian, and grandmother, Zhou Mengyu, would go back to their hometown to visit their relatives. It could be said that they were returning home with honor and glory.
Therefore, at the end of May, on the Wednesday after Yang Yi had bought the table tennis table, Mo Henian and Zhou Mengyu flew back from Dezhou. They planned to visit their grandson and granddaughter first and stay in Jiangcheng for more than a week. They would then go to Taiwan together the following weekend.
Mo Henian rarely returned to China. Zhou Mengyu, on the other hand, had come back twice in the past year. The first time was when she had to go back to Harbor City, so she took a detour to Jiangcheng to visit her grandson and granddaughter. The second time was when one of her sisters opened a clothing store in Shanghai. She came back to support her, so she also made a trip to Jiangcheng.
However, both times, Zhou Mengyu was in a hurry and left after a day or two.
…
On Wednesday morning, Yang Yi and Murphy brought Tong Tong, who did not need to go to school, to the international airport in Jiangcheng's Binhai District to pick up their grandparents.
The old man was still dressed in a cowboy outfit. It was inconvenient to wear a cowboy hat, so he held it in his hand. However, the dark-colored checkered shirt was obviously matched by Zhou Mengyu. The color of the shirt looked mature and not old-fashioned. When they walked out of the passage, from afar, he looked like a fashionable old man who refused to admit his age.
However, upon closer inspection, Mo Henian was still as stern as before. When he saw Yang Yi, he even snorted softly to express his dissatisfaction.
Although the old man was a farmer in America, he was not uninformed. Of course, he knew about Yang Yi's current net worth. However, it was also because he knew that Yang Yi was definitely one of the richest men in China that Mo Henian was unhappy with Yang Yi.
This was the same reaction that Mo Henian had when he first found out that Yang Yi and Murphy were together!
When his son-in-law was still a poor boy (that was his first impression of Yang Yi), his grandfather was worried that his daughter would not have enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear!
Now that his son-in-law had become rich, the old man was worried that the rich man would turn bad. He would be pursued by a group of women and spend all day outside. His daughter would be wronged because of this!
Of course, Zhou Mengyu had also asked Murphy this question on the phone. Knowing that Yang Yi was still the same as before and had never left the three of them to spend time outside, they were relieved.
However, he would still be unhappy if he had to be! Did a father-in-law need a reason to be unhappy with his son-in-law?
Yang Yi had already understood the old man's character. He did not care at all. Moreover, he had even brought the "family heirloom" — Yang Yi took Tong Tong from Murphy's arms and smiled as he held Tong Tong's hand and said, "Tongtong, greet grandpa."
Although they hadn't seen each other for a year, it wasn't like Little Wancheng hadn't seen his grandfather before. Usually, when Mo Fei had a video call with her mother, she would pull Little Wancheng over and let him say hello to her grandparents. Otherwise, how could Tong Tong have learned to call them grandpa and grandma at such a young age?
However, Tong Tong was a little reserved now. It seemed that this was the "first time" he had seen his grandpa in person. (When Yang Yi went to the US last year, Tong Tong was still too young. He was only a few months old, so how could he remember?) His eyes were wide open, and he pouted his watery little mouth. He was only focused on looking at his grandpa and trying to distinguish between them, so he did not call him grandpa out loud.
When he saw Tong Tong, the unhappiness in Mo Henian's eyes instantly disappeared. His stern face became gentle. He smiled and reached out his hand. "Tongtong, come and give grandpa a hug. Let me see if you have gained any weight!"
What an amazing observation angle. When Tong Tong heard this, he instinctively rejected. He turned his little head and reached out to hug his father's neck. He did not want to be hugged by anyone else.
"Are you still shy?" Zhou Mengyu walked over with a smile. She also reached out her hand and said, "Tongtong, let grandma hug you, okay?"
Of course, he could hug his grandma. Tong Tong had played with his grandma in February this year, so he had a familiar impression of her. He looked at his grandma for a while, then decisively abandoned his father and went into his grandma's arms.
The little fellow was hugged by his grandma. He twisted his butt and felt that it was the same sitting position that he was familiar with. He immediately calmed down, as if he had regained his liveliness at home. He grinned and pointed with his finger as he said to his grandma, "Grandma, Mom, Papa!"
"Grandpa too," Murphy reminded him.
Tong Tong tried to recall his grandma's and grandpa's facial shape and appearance. He nodded and said in a childish voice, "Grandpa! There's, there's, there's Tongtong! "
"Aiyo, our Tongtong is so smart. He can already speak so much!" Zhou Mengyu was grinning from ear to ear.
Murphy smiled and said, "Actually, he can speak a lot. For example, he can learn to say what he wants when he eats, what he wants, and what he wants. He might be a little embarrassed today, so he didn't say anything."
Mo Henian watched and listened from the side. Although he was laughing happily, his heart was itching. In the end, he couldn't hold back and asked again, "Let me hug Tongtong."
"Let grandpa hug him, okay?" Murphy hurriedly asked Tong Tong.
Tong Tong's feeling of unfamiliarity faded a lot. He nodded and said, "Okay!"
Mo Henian's wrinkled face immediately bloomed into a smile. He reached out and picked up Tong Tong, weighed him, and patted the little fellow's butt. He looked at Tong Tong with a smile and said, "You've grown up. When grandpa saw you last year, you were still a little thing. Now you're so heavy!"
"Yes, he's quite heavy. Grandma can't hold him anymore!" Zhou Mengyu joked a little exaggeratedly. Then, she smiled and said to Murphy, "I always feel that Tongtong is heavier than little Lulu. Feifei, do you still remember little Lulu? You're Aunt Yun's granddaughter. She's two months older than Tongtong. She's not just heavy. I saw the photo she sent the day before yesterday. Our Tongtong is even taller than her granddaughter. "
When Yang Yi heard this, he immediately came over and said, "Dad, if you think he's heavy, let me help you carry him!"
Mo Henian was a little unhappy that his flattery didn't work. He held Tong Tong with one hand and waved his other hand. "Go, go, go. Do whatever you need to do. I'm not so old that I can't even carry my grandson!"
Tong Tong didn't know whether he understood or found the bickering between his grandpa and his dad very interesting. He giggled in his grandpa's arms.
