When he couldn't contact Gao Fei, Jiang Yaohai could only look after the two elders in secret, and he had long noticed his uncle and aunt's thoughts.
After all, this is someone else's family affair, and Jiang Yaohai can't interfere.
But as Grandpa Gao and Grandma Gao were getting older, Gao Fei was kept in the dark and had no idea.
Since we met today, I naturally have to remind him.
Moreover, he knew Gao Fei's character well. It was no exaggeration to say that he was innocent and ignorant of the world.
He said this in front of his colleagues because he was afraid that after so many years, his credibility in Gao Fei's heart might not be as strong as before. After they knew about this, they could give Gao Fei a warning from an outsider's perspective.
Compared to his childhood friend who has disappeared for so many years, the words of his friends who are with him at this moment are more trusted by him.
"You don't believe it?" Gao Fei's reaction was within Jiang Yaohai's expectations, and he didn't say much. "If you don't believe me, go home and see. They will definitely come to see you tomorrow at the latest. Just wait and see."
Gao Fei wanted to say that it was normal for his uncle and aunt to visit him, but Jiang Yaohai was so special to him that he couldn't bring himself to refute him.
He was in a bad mood and was skeptical about his childhood friend's reminder.
Lin Fan and others understood what Jiang Yaohai meant, but they didn't know the real situation, so they could only advise Gao Fei not to think too much about it.
If an enemy comes, we will fight him; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. Thinking too much now will only cause more trouble.
After returning home, Gao Fei was in a slump, Jiang Yaohai's words constantly flashing through his mind.
Whenever he heard a noise on the stairs, his first reaction was that his uncle and aunt had arrived, and he would stare at the door closely. He would only breathe a sigh of relief when he knew the sound had faded away.
He hoped that his uncle and aunt would come soon to prove that Jiang Yaohai's warnings were nonsense, but he also hoped that they would not come at all, as Jiang Yaohai had predicted.
Even the elderly Grandpa Gao noticed his absent-mindedness.
It was only after Lin Fan reminded him that Gao Fei realized that the two elders' eyes were always on him. Even though they were very worried, they did not say it out loud.
Gao Fei was stunned, and suddenly realized that he had spent too much time on meaningless things and neglected to accompany his family.
He quickly put aside the random thoughts in his mind and became intimate with his grandparents.
Seeing his grandson back to normal, the old man smiled. With Li Chunhua also making fun of him, the atmosphere soon became lively again.
The next morning, several people accompanied their grandparents after buying groceries. They rejected the suggestion of going out to play again and insisted on accompanying the two elders to cook.
The two elders were both happy and helpless, and kept talking to a group of children about Gao Fei's embarrassing childhood stories.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Gao Fei calmed down and opened the door. It was indeed the uncle and aunt he had been thinking about all night.
At that moment, he couldn't describe the feeling in his heart. All the anxiety and restlessness seemed to subside in an instant, and his heart became calm instead.
"Uncle, aunt." He called people politely and let them in.
"Xiaofei is back? Oh, you look good." Aunt came in and handed over a bag of fruit with a smile.
"Why didn't you tell us, Xiaofei, that you were coming back? If we hadn't heard from others, we wouldn't have known you were back." Uncle complained with a smile, patting Gao Fei's shoulder.
Gao Fei couldn't see any difference between his uncle and aunt and before, nor could he sense what Jiang Yaohai meant. "I came back temporarily and won't stay for more than a few days, so I didn't intend to disturb you."
Actually, I forgot.
Although Gao Fei's uncle and aunt were nice to him, they didn't have close contact on a daily basis, so he didn't think about telling them about his feelings when he came back.
After the uncle and aunt entered the room, they revealed their little cousin, who was playing a game on his phone without even looking up.
"Dad, Mom. Oh, there are so many guests." Aunt raised her voice, seeming to be startled.
"Oh, he's my colleague." Gao Fei hurried in and introduced both parties.
Uncle and aunt greeted everyone politely.
Because Gao Fei's uncle and aunt came, everyone felt embarrassed to continue sitting and stood up at once.
Together with Lin Fan and Gao Fei, the already small dining room space seemed extremely oppressive.
Uncle Gao and his wife couldn't help but step back, their smiles froze, and soon disappeared again.
I don’t know if it was because of Jiang Yaohai’s reminder, but Gao Fei had a preconceived notion in his mind, he always felt that his uncle and aunt’s smiles were a bit hypocritical.
But he had little social experience, so he was just doubtful and unsure.
But to experienced people like Lin Fan and Song Ren, Gao Fei's uncle and aunt's motives were obvious. Considering Jiang Yaohai's warning, they felt it was almost certain.
"Mom and Dad, you didn't even tell us that Xiaofei was back." Aunt Gao complained with a smile.
Grandpa Gao and Grandma Gao also had a somewhat stiff expression. After looking at each other, Grandpa Gao spoke up, "The child came back so suddenly, and there were so many colleagues with him, and there were so many people at home, that I didn't think about it."
"Have a seat, everyone. These are all Xiaofei's colleagues. They're all pilots, right?" Uncle Gao politely asked everyone to take a seat. "Oh, there's even a female pilot!"
Everyone accepted the misunderstanding with a smile and no one corrected it.
"Female pilot? Where is she?" The cousin at the door was attracted. He rushed in and saw that Lin Fan was completely different from those rosy-lipped and white-toothed female pilots on TV. He frowned and criticized, "This woman is not good-looking."
After saying that, he ignored everyone and ran to the sofa to continue playing with his phone.
"This child is so rude." Aunt Gao laughed but had no intention of stepping forward to teach him a lesson. "You adults should be more magnanimous and not argue with a child."
Even the naive Li Chunhua felt uncomfortable with these words.
My cousin is already thirteen or fourteen years old. Whether he is ignorant or not is another matter.
As soon as he came in, he started making personal attacks on Lin Fan. Even if they felt uncomfortable listening to that, it would have been fine. After all, no one really wanted to argue with a kid.
But even though there was no response, the mother started to defend her.
Think about it, when a child comes into the house and never calls you "brother" or even "grandpa or grandma", you will know that his family education is worrying.
There's no need to educate children like this; they'll suffer when they're free in the future, Li Chunhua thought with a sly smile.
Gao Fei was embarrassed and didn't know how to deal with the situation.
Grandpa Gao wanted to scold her, but was interrupted by Aunt Gao, "Xiao Fei, how long are you staying this time? When are you leaving?"
I hear questions like this every time I come back.
Originally Gao Fei thought that he was concerned about himself, but after Jiang Yaohai's reminder and his cousin's attitude just now, no matter how he listened, he felt that he was urging him to leave.
"Let's wait for two days." According to the original plan, they were supposed to set off tomorrow, but he didn't tell the truth.
"Oh, you're in such a hurry. You can't even stay at home until the New Year." Aunt said it was a pity, but the smile on her face deepened.
"We understand that you work hard. Don't worry, we will take good care of the family. We have your grandparents here, so don't worry about the family and just work hard on your career outside." Uncle Gao also encouraged.
Gao Fei felt resentful and felt uncomfortable no matter how he listened to it.
Listening carefully, there weren't many words of concern. Most of them were asking him to work hard outside and not worry about the family.
Is he thinking too much?
Gao Fei didn't want to be misled by Jiang Yaohai's words and think too badly of his uncle and aunt. At least, they didn't show any obvious intention of coveting his house.
After chatting for a while, my aunt asked where so many people would stay that night.
Gao Fei said that he could just live at home and squeeze in by pulling out the sofa.
"How can that be?!" My cousin who was playing games on the sofa suddenly spoke up.
"What's the problem?" Gao Fei didn't understand. He had already lived here for two days and there was no inconvenience. He just felt a little aggrieved for Captain Song and Brother Li.
"How can there be no problem? So many people live here, but no one has asked us!" My cousin said in a bad tone.
When my aunt saw that something was wrong, she quickly went over there.
"Why should I ask you?" Gao Fei asked in a deep voice.
"Live in my house..." My cousin's words were covered by his aunt before he could finish.
The uncle laughed and said, "Children's words are innocent, children's words are innocent..."
Looking at the two embarrassed old people, Gao Fei is not a fool.
Children speak without restraint, so what they say is the truth.
In their hearts, they really regarded this house as their own property.
How many interests will it take for relationships to waver? Many family ties cannot withstand the test. Don't forget to vote.
