After Rebirth I Became Spoiled
Chapter 9
“I’ll take you to see ‘Scout’. It is very clingy and loves to act like a baby. Trooper is more lively and often needs people to take him out. In short, cats and dogs have their own advantages. But now that there is also you in the house, it will be more lively in the future.”
Su Meng nodded vigorously. Even though it was only the first day she had got in Ling’s house, she clearly felt the warmth of home from the words of Grandma Zhang. And that kind of emotion, she hadn’t experienced it for twelve years after the death of her parents,
At four o’clock in the afternoon, the chef from Ling’s home came to cook. The chef looked more than 40 years old, chubby, and well. He was a little surprised when he saw Su Meng.
Grandma Zhang introduced Su Meng and said, “In the future, this will be our granddaughter.”
The chef knew what the old couple Ling did when they rushed to Sichuan. This retired old couple was too lonely. They adopted a suitable little girl. Even he was happy for them.
The chef smiled and said, “You will have a little girl to accompany you in the future, which is great.”
Grandma Zhang echoed, “Yes. Lao Ling and I both like her.” Su Meng stood beside Grandma Zhang quietly. What Grandma Zhang said was right. Everyone got along well. For example, the chef was extraordinarily kind.
During the meal, Lao Ling changed his plain clothes to a straight silver-gray military uniform.
The old man, who was kind, looked heroic and energetic after putting on the silver-gray military uniform. Grandma Zhang said to Su Meng disgustingly, “This old man, who has worn military uniforms for decades, is still accustomed to wearing military uniforms at home after retiring. This habit cannot be changed in this life.” She said it but helped Lao Ling smooth out his somewhat wrinkled collar.
Grandma Zhang looked at Grandpa Ling with gentle eyes. Su Meng smiled seeing that scene of warmth and affection in front of her. When the meal was served, a loud horn sounded outside, which shocked Su Meng. Grandma Zhang calmed her and said, “Don’t be afraid, this horn sounds twice a day, once at 6:30 in the morning, to remind the big guys to get up, and once at 5:30 in the evening to remind them to go home for dinner. “
Su Meng nodded. The horn ceased but military songs were playing on the radio. Listening to such a voice would give people a feel of enthusiasm for some reason. Of course, more than that it would give people a sense of security.
After dinner, Grandma Zhang took out her tablet to make a video call to her only son.
She dialed his number and said to Su Meng, “The time difference between his place and ours is 12 hours. It is 6:30 here and his side will be 6:30 in the morning. At this time, he should be eating breakfast. He is free only this time every day.”
Grandpa Ling also sat next to Grandma Zhang, waiting for the son on the other side of the ocean to connect to the video. Su Meng subconsciously gave way to her side, leaving more space for the old couple.
The video turned on. As soon as Grandma Zhang saw her son’s face in the video, her face was full of soft smiles, “Ah Yu, good morning.”
“Dad, mom, good morning.” A young and particularly charming voice sounded. Lao Ling gave a hum, and said with concern, “Ah Yu, how was yesterday?”
“It was good. Don’t worry about me, Dad.” Grandma Zhang was most worried about her son who was living alone outside. She eagerly said, “Remember to take care of yourself.”
Ling Yucheng answered patiently, “I will, Mom.”
At that time, Ling Yucheng took the initiative to ask about the adoption, “You went to the disaster area this time, have you adopted a child?”
Grandma Zhang smiled sideways at Su Meng and said to Ling Yucheng, “Your dad and I fell in love with a good girl.” Ling Yucheng was very relieved of his parents’ vision, and knew that they had good eyes. Since the little girl could make them adopt her, there must be something special. He had a relaxed tone, “That’s good.”
Grandma Zhang covered her mouth and smiled, “The child is still young, and I let this child call us grandparents. You will be called uncle in the future.”
Ling Yucheng froze for two seconds at the end of the video, and then smiled helplessly, “Okay.” Although there was helplessness in the words, he was more tolerant. Ling Yucheng seemed to be really busy. After breakfast, he hung up the video shortly after talking with the old couple.
After the screen went dark, Grandma Zhang patted her forehead, and said to Su Meng who was on the side, “I forgot to introduce you to Ah Yu just now!”
Su Meng hadn’t been on the screen nor had she leaned over to see Ling Yucheng on the other end of the video. But from his conversation, she could also perceive that he was a polite, gentle and excellent person.
Hearing that, she shook her head gently and said, “Grandma, we will get a chance in the future.”
“Yes, right. From now on, he will be your uncle. There will be many opportunities for you to say hello.”
