    At seven o'clock in the morning, Jiang Tao woke up naturally from sleep.

    Through the gaps in the curtains, you can see that the sun is shining outside, and the sparrows are chirping, mixed with the laughter of children in the distance and the shouts of elders.

    A rest day is always beautiful, Jiang Tao picked up her phone to check today's weather forecast.

    The highest temperature during the day is 17 degrees Celsius, and today is indeed the warmest day in recent times. The temperature will drop tomorrow, and there is still sleet on Saturday!

    Jiang Tao opened the closet, chose a white sweater, and put a light blue thick coat on it, so it was easy to take off when it was hot.

    After changing her clothes, Jiang Tao walked out of the bedroom and went to the bathroom to wash up.

    Grandma was in the kitchen, when she heard the voice, she looked over and looked Jiang Tao up and down: "Didn't you buy a new skirt, why didn't you wear it?"

    Jiang Tao looked at the slacks on her legs, and said confidently, "This one is comfortable."

    The dress is pretty, but she has to take care of her grandma, so some movements may be inconvenient.

    Grandma shook her head and muttered to herself: "Every time I go out with Xiaorui, I dress up beautifully, and I don't pay attention to it when I go on a blind date. Girls are really different now."

    After dinner, the grandparents and grandchildren went to the supermarket one kilometer away. In addition to buying daily necessities and ingredients for the next two or three days, they also chose a few fruits and bought a few bottles of drinks.

    The small trolley for transporting vegetables was full, and the grandparents and grandchildren returned to the community after eight o'clock, and ran into old man Li and grandma Li who were going to walk their children.

    Grandma Li: "The weather is so good, where don't you go to play?"

    Grandma: "Go, put away your things and go to the botanical garden."

    Old man Li: "It's so far away, you take the bus? I'm really not afraid of the bumps."

    Grandma laughed: "Xiao Cao is here to pick us up."

    Grandma Li looked at Jiang Tao and said in surprise, "Xiao Cao is your blind date? He doesn't have to go to work today on Wednesday?"

    Grandma took over the conversation: "He is the general manager, and he doesn't have to go to work by himself, and he doesn't have to go to the construction site every day when he's not busy."

    Old man Li laughed at her: "Young people are on a blind date, why are you going to join in the fun?"

    Grandma made a embarrassed face: "I don't want to either. I'm an old man with old arms and legs. If I go, I will cause trouble for them, but Xiao Cao is too polite and insists on asking me to go together. I can't say no to him, so just go. YesOh, last weekend Zhiyong and the others went to the botanical garden too, how many flowers bloom there? Don’t let it be fully bloomed, so what’s the point of view.”

    The smiles of Old Man Li and Grandma Li couldn't hold back.

    Last weekend, my son and daughter-in-law were going to play in the Botanical Garden. They only picked up their grandchildren when they came here, without mentioning that they would bring them with them.

    "Go and see for yourself, Nuannuan may have opened again in the past two days."

    The grandma didn't find any bargains here, and the couple quickly walked out of the unit with their grandson.

    Grandma raised her chin, took out the key and opened the door.

    After entering the gate, Jiang Tao said awkwardly: "Why are you mentioning Cao An to them?"

    Grandma: "Show off, why, just allow them to be weird, our family has no car and can only squeeze the bus, and I'm not allowed to show off that you have a good blind date?"

    Jiang Tao: "You also know that it's a blind date, and it may not be successful in the future. If you show it off now, someday it will be dirty, and people will come back with sarcasm."

    Grandma: "Let's talk about the future later. If I can show off today, I have to be happy. Besides, at my age, I live less and less every day. Maybe you and Xiao Cao are still young, so I will..."

    Jiang Tao pulled the cart with one hand, and covered the little old lady's mouth with the other.

    Grandma smiled and bent her eyes.

    Jiang Tao had nothing to do with her, so she took out the fruit she was going to bring for the trip and asked her grandma to wash it, and she tidied up the cart and refrigerator.

    Seeing that the refrigerator was gradually filling up, Jiang Tao turned her back to her grandmother and said, "I have saved 130,000 here too, why don't we go buy a car too?"

    Old man Li joked that grandma can only squeeze the bus when she travels, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

    Grandma was poor when she was a child, and she struggled hard when she was young. She finally bought a house and got a city hukou. Grandpa, parents, and mother left one after another. Grandma raised her up by herself and supported her to study all the way to college graduation. Now she finally has a family.A stable job, and grandma is indeed in her old age, Jiang Tao wants grandma to enjoy as much as possible.

    She has a driver's license and can buy an ordinary car with savings.

    Grandma: "What are you thinking? I only travel a few times a year. Buying a car is pure waste. Why don't you save it and buy a house? The value of the car will depreciate when you get it. Don't think I don't understand."

    Jiang Tao was a little angry: "I also want you to show off."

    Use her to show off, not her blind date.

    Grandma: "It's rare for me to show you off? When you were young, you often took the first place in the class or even the first grade, and Zhiyong next door rarely passed. When you were admitted to high school, he went to a technical school, and his parentsWhen they see me, they hide away, because they are afraid that I will show off to them. There is also a house. With your current salary, two or three years of saving will be enough for the down payment. Zhiyong’s house is almost all paid by his parents. I don’tSilly, if I want to show off, I want to show off, and when you buy a house, I will treat their family to dinner!"

    Jiang Tao finally laughed.

    Although grandma is looking at the fruit in her hand, her eyes are full of kindness: "Our Xiaotao is capable and can support herself. Grandma is most afraid of you being bullied outside, and she urges you to get married because she hopes to find a reliable one."I will take care of you. But grandma still said that you have to like each other to get married, there is no need to find someone to marry just for me, I can't bear to let you be wronged."

    Jiang Tao: "You concentrate on washing the fruit, don't talk about it."

    Besides she was going to cry.

    Grandma cut pineapples and oranges, filled a fresh-keeping box with cherries, put three bottles of water and two packs of snacks in the canvas bag, and the trip was ready.

    At nine o'clock, Cao An stopped at the bottom of the fifth building on time.

    Grandma waved to him directly from the kitchen, and took Jiang Tao out.

    Cao An was standing in front of the car, wearing a light gray sweater, a black casual jacket, and a pair of black casual trousers underneath.

    His sweater was thin and fit close to the body. It could faintly outline the outline of the strong chest muscles, making the lower abdomen look tight and flat.

    When he walked up, his slender and straight legs were full of strength.

    After greeting grandma, he looked at the canvas bag in Jiang Tao's hand.

    Jiang Tao smiled: "I brought some fruit and snacks."

    Cao An took the heavy canvas bag, opened the back door, and said to Jiang Tao, "You sit in the back with grandma."

    Jiang Tao inexplicably thought of Li Zhiyong and his wife next door. When the big family went out during the Chinese New Year, Li Zhiyong spoke to his wife in the same tone when arranging seats.

    It was as if the two of them were already familiar with each other, and it was as if grandma was Cao An's grandma, and she was the newcomer.

    Grandma had already sat down inside, watching the two young men talking with a smile.

    Jiang Tao chose not to be polite with Cao An, and sat next to her grandmother.

    Cao An closed the car door, put the canvas bag of the grandfather and grandson on the passenger seat, fastened his seat belt, made sure that the grandfather and grandson were also seated, and drove off.

    After leaving the community, the car will pass by the small park where grandma often dances in the square.

    Cao An glanced at the edge of the park, slowed down, and asked grandma, "Is that your neighbor across the street?"

    Jiang Tao and grandma looked out the window together.

    Cao An even helped lower the window.

    Sure enough, Jiang Tao found Old Man Li and Grandma Li, who were standing next to the children's slide, talking face to face.

    Grandma smiled and waved over there.

    Old Man Li, Grandma Li: ...

    Cao An also nodded towards the other party, greeted him politely, and left quickly.

    Jiang Tao: ...

    In fact, there is no need to be so polite.

    The botanical garden is here, because it is a working day, there are still some vacancies in the parking lot, otherwise, the weather is so good, I am afraid I can only find a place to park outside.

    Jiang Tao got out of the car, looked around, and found that many tourists were only wearing sweaters or single clothes, and the bright sun shone on them, making them really warm.

    Cao An put the coat directly on the car, and the sleeves of the sweater were rolled up above the elbows, revealing a pair of strong and sturdy forearms, including when he closed the car door with his backhand, the muscle lines of his chest and shoulders became very obvious.

    Jiang Tao quickly looked away.

    Grandma: "Hey, the sun is too harsh, I have to wear sunglasses."

    A minute later, the little old lady got ready and got out of the car. She wore a bright yellow short coat open, tied a scarf of contrasting colors, and wore curly hair dyed maroon and sunglasses. Jiang Tao was not as old as her.

    Cao An smiled appreciatively: "Grandma knows how to dress up."

    With a canvas bag and a camera in his left hand, he stretched out his right arm towards the old lady.

    Grandma pulled it back naturally, looked at the distance and said with emotion: "When I was young, I didn't have so many nice clothes. Now that I have the conditions, of course I have to dress up."

    Cao An: "You picked them all yourself?"

    Grandma: "Yeah, Xiaotao's vision is too earthy."

    Jiang Tao who walked silently behind the two: ...

    Grandma walks slowly, Cao An takes care of her, Jiang Tao is not good at chatting, and after entering the botanical garden, she spends most of her time admiring the scenery, sometimes pulling a little distance away.

    Cao An patiently accompanied his grandmother all the time, as if he didn't want to use this opportunity to get close to the pretty little nurse.

    The first to arrive is the cherry blossom garden area, pink and tender cherry blossoms, all tourists taking pictures underneath.

    "I'll take a picture for you."

    Cao An chose a cherry blossom tree and helped her grandma stand under the tree.

    Jiang Tao stood aside, watching her grandmother posing a few poses with ease, and Cao An even changed the angle to shoot, just like a professional photographer.

    Of course, Jiang Tao was not idle either, she took pictures of her grandma with her mobile phone.

    "Take a few more photos of you and grandma."

    Cao An suddenly looked over, half suggesting and half commanding.

    Jiang Tao pursed her lower lip, and finally stood beside her grandma.

    When taking pictures, one has to look at the camera. Jiang Tao finds it hard to relax when he thinks of Cao An's long and narrow eyes hidden behind the camera.

    Grandma clapped her hands.

    When Jiang Tao lowered her head, she saw the newly grown white hair at the root of her grandmother's hair.

    She should cherish the opportunity to take a photo with her grandma.

    After thinking it over, Jiang Tao hugged grandma from behind, put her chin on one of grandma's shoulders, tilted her head and looked at the camera with a bright smile.

    The little nurse's face was fresher than a white cherry blossom, and her smiling eyes were as moist as water.

    It was only when Cao An pressed the shutter for the third time that he finally got his grandmother's expression into view.

    A total of six shots were taken for this scene.

    Grandma came over to see and was very satisfied.

    "It's your turn, let Xiaotao take a picture for you." Grandma handed Jiang Tao the camera and directed.

    Jiang Tao's face became hot with embarrassment.

    Cao An smiled: "I won't shoot anymore, I'm not used to it."

    Grandma: "Then let's take a picture together, and I'll keep it as a souvenir."

    This time Cao An did not object.

    The two stood back under the tree, and Cao An put one arm on grandma's shoulder.

    Jiang Tao didn't know how to use such a complicated camera, so he simply pressed the shutter a few times.

    When Cao An was looking at the photo, grandma took Jiang Tao a few steps away, and whispered excitedly: "Hey, I just rubbed my head against Xiao Cao's chest muscles!"

    Jiang Tao: ...

    The author has something to say: Boss Cao has nothing to say about his figure!

    Haha, 100 small red envelopes, see you tomorrow~
