    Because grandma often went out to play cards with the intelligence station in the village, "their family has a guest called Xiao Duan, who can not only work but also play with electronic products." The news spread throughout the village in less than half a day..

    As a result, more and more elderly people came to Wen Xu's house to ask them to repair their mobile phones.

    When Wen Xu was surrounded by three old people who asked him to help him find out why his phone was stuck, he subconsciously looked at Duan Chenyi.

    "Hey... why did things develop to this point?"

    "I don't know either." Duan Chenyi glanced at Wen Xu apologetically, "I just wrote a program to help grandma modify the front-end data, but I didn't expect her to say that I am a master at handling mobile phones.".”

    With this statement, most of the elders in the village were called out.

    Most of the people living in this village are old people living alone. Most of them have never read a book, and even more people are illiterate.

    Many of them are children who will come back for a few days during the Chinese New Year and then leave.

    For things like smartphones, the elderly can do nothing but make calls in their hands.

    But it is unavoidable that many times the old people clicked something else by mistake, causing the phone to download a mess of junk software, and then get stuck.

    This card is good for a while, even the opening of the software will be delayed for a minute.

    Usually there are not many young people who are free in the village, but now a young man called a mobile phone expert finally came, and of course they would not let him go at will.

    In this way, Wen Xu and Duan Chenyi were placed at the door by the grandmother like a signboard, to help the old people who came to ask for help.

    "You need me to help clean up the spam text messages?" Wen Xu listened carefully to every old man's question.

    He handles simple things like clearing cache and adding contacts.As for those intractable diseases that a dozen pop-up spam ads pop up as soon as the phone is turned on, Duan Chenyi has to deal with all of them.

    "Yes, yes." The old lady nodded, and responded to Wen Xu with a smile, "There have been a lot of messy news coming in recently, and I don't know what to do."

    Wen Xu nodded, turned on the phone and deleted all the harassing messages for her, and went to the background to turn on a function to block spam messages.

    After finishing processing, Wen Xu returned the phone to the old lady.

    "Almost, can you see if this works?"

    In the next second, the old lady took out a crumpled piece of paper from her pocket.The edges of the cardboard are already a little yellowed, but it can be seen that it is well protected and there is almost no damage.

    On the piece of paper, there was a string of phone numbers written on it.

    The old lady looked at Wen Xu with a smile and said: "This is my son's phone number, can you help me find out if he has called me? Did I hang up on him as a nuisance call before?"Already?"

    Wen Xu hummed, and began to check the call records according to the old lady's instructions.

    As a result, I checked around and found no records related to this number.Wen Xu felt his eyebrows twitch, he returned the phone and told the old man.

    "It seems that I haven't found it. The recent call records don't have this number. Is it wrong on the paper?"

    Hearing that the three words were not found, the old lady's face was sad for a moment, and then it was quickly covered by the original smile.

    "It can't be wrong." She said firmly to Wen Xu: "This is my son's number, and I will definitely not remember it wrong."

    The emotion in Wen Xu's eyes flickered a little, "Well... maybe he didn't call you."

    The old lady sighed softly, "Maybe."

    Then she nodded, thanked Wen Xu, then turned and left.

    Looking at the old lady's back, Wen Xu inexplicably felt something was wrong in his heart.

    My mother lives alone in the country, and my son can't even make a phone call to say hello?

    Just as Wen Xu was thinking and condemning, an aunt who had been sitting on the sidelines waiting for Duan Chenyi to delete the advertisement started to gossip with Wen Xu.

    "That old man just now, her son died three years ago."

    "She was hit at the time, but now she seems to have some mental problems. We often ask her around with her mobile phone if it is broken, why can't she receive her son's call."

    "Anyway... quite pitiful."

    After hearing the aunt's explanation, Wen Xu inexplicably felt that something was wrong in his heart.He raised his eyes and saw the old lady who had just left for a while, and inexplicably felt that her back was very similar to his grandmother.

    Substituting in slightly, he jerked his nose sorely, and his vision began to become a little blurred.

    well.

    In this world... it is true that misery only seeks misery people.

    Duan Chenyi seemed to have noticed the change in his mood, and lowered her eyes to look over.

    "What's wrong?"

    "It's okay." Wen Xu shook his head, and continued to greet the next old man, "Go on, thank you for your hard work."

    Grandma and Aunt Li were standing beside Duan Chenyi, and the more she looked at them, the more satisfied she became.

    After a while, Aunt Li quietly leaned into grandma's ear and whispered, "Hey, that boy named Xiao Duan is pretty good too? Isn't your grandson unwilling to come on a blind date? Why don't you ask?"Ask about that short paragraph?"

    Grandma took a look at Duan Chenyi and Wen Xu who were sitting together at this time, and the more she looked, the more she felt satisfied.

    "Don't ask." Grandma snorted softly and replied, "Don't even think about the two of them, you can't ask."

    Because there are many old people who come to the door, managed to miss the dinner time in such a dawdle.

    At nine o'clock in the evening, Wen Xu and Duan Chenyi managed to have dinner.

    Wen Xu rubbed his sore waist after sitting for a long time, "There are too many people today..."

    "It can't be helped, there are so many old people in our village." After saying that, the grandmother put a chicken leg into the bowls of Wen Xu and Duan Chenyi.

    While picking up vegetables, grandma looked at Duan Chenyi with a smile and asked, "Xiao Duan, when are you going back? Have you considered staying with us for a few more days?"

    Wen Xu paused slightly with the hand holding the chopsticks, and subconsciously looked at Duan Chenyi.

    How did you manage to make your grandma like you in just one day?

    Duan Chenyi smiled, "I can do it, because my parents will accompany my sister to celebrate the New Year abroad this year. If I were not with you, I would be a little deserted when I go home alone, so..."

    "I see." Grandma said: "Then you can stay here for a few more days. Anyway, during Chinese New Year, there are only Wen Wen and me. One more person is more lively."

    With her grandmother's permission, the expression on Duan Chenyi's face relaxed a lot.

    "Okay, I'm planning to do that too."

    Just like this, the two of them talked back and forth at the dinner table, and the matter was completely finalized.

    Wen Xu was holding the bowl in the middle, a little dazed.

    No, how did you two reach a consensus so quickly???

    He sighed softly, put down the bowl, and knocked on the table.

    "Well...Duan Chenyi doesn't seem to have brought any change of clothes, does he? Isn't it a bit too..."

    Before Wen Xu could finish speaking, Duan Chenyi rushed out of the house, ran to the car and took down a suitcase and several bags of New Year's goods.Then he patted his chest and explained to Wen Xu.

    "Don't worry about me. I brought all the necessities and a change of clothes. Just give me a bed."

    If there is no extra bed, just sleep with Wen Xu directly.He added silently in his heart.

    This worthless look looks like a son-in-law who is about to step in.

    The corner of Wen Xu's mouth twitched, and he didn't say anything more.

    "Okay... then stay."

    When it was time to wash the dishes after eating, Duan Chenyi silently took on all the cleaning tasks by himself.He cut up the fruit and put it on the coffee table, so that Wen Xu and grandma can eat while watching TV.

    Wen Xu was arranged to sit on the sofa. Looking at Duan Chenyi's slender and beautiful hands, which were usually only used to type on the keyboard, they were a little red because they had just touched the cold water, and couldn't help but want to step forward to help.

    He was just about to get up when he was pulled back by his grandmother.

    "What are you going to do?"

    Wen Xu paused, "He's a guest..."

    "Sit down for me." After finishing speaking, grandma got up and walked towards the kitchen.

    In the kitchen, Duan Chenyi was still diligently washing the dishes, when suddenly he heard the sound of the door closing.

    He followed the voice and saw that grandma was standing at the door with a serious expression.

    "What's wrong?" Duan Chenyi raised his hand and turned off the faucet, "Do you have something to tell me?"

    Grandma hummed and nodded.

    "Xiao Duan, you do all this for Wen Wen, right?"

    As soon as the words fell, the air became frozen and a little stiff.

    Duan Chenyi picked up a towel on one side and wiped the water stains on his hands, "It would be great if...Wen Xu could inherit your keen observation ability."

    The two present are smart people, and many things are already self-evident.

    Grandma smiled, "I'm old, and I used to be a teacher. I've experienced everything. I've encountered situations like yours several times before."

    "Actually, I don't want to get involved with the feelings of young people like you. I always think it's good to let nature take its course." Grandma looked at Duan Chenyi thoughtfully, and continued.

    "But Wen Wen's parents divorced early, and the child's life has not been smooth since he was a child... So it's normal for him to be a little slow or repulsive about emotional matters."

    "I have never imagined what kind of object Wen Wen will hand over in the future."

    "But after seeing your performance these days, I probably know it. He is the kind of person who needs others to lead him forward. For feelings, that child has no internal drive."

    "I was quite worried... what would happen if he was alone in the future. But now that you are here, I can feel a little more at ease."

    Grandma talked to Duan Chenyi a lot about Wen Xu, and the two of them stayed in the kitchen for almost half an hour.

    At the end, the grandmother reminded.

    "Let's say it first, I just took you into consideration. As for whether I will completely entrust Wen Xu to you, this matter remains to be investigated."

    "So, don't get too carried away."

    Grandma sighed softly, "However, the final decision on this matter is still in the hands of the two of you, and I can only serve as a guide."

    "After all, the two of us have the opportunity to get together today. In essence, it's because we have the same purpose. I hope Wen Xu will be happy in the end, right?"

    When Duan Chenyi came out of the kitchen, Wen Xu had already showered and was sitting on the bed reading a book.

    The door of the room was pushed open from the outside, Wen Xu was disturbed by the movement, put down his book and looked up towards the door.

    After seeing clearly that the person who came was Duan Chenyi, Wen Xu put his book aside.

    "What's the matter? What did grandma tell you? You two have been in the kitchen for so long..." He tilted his head and asked.

    "It's nothing." Duan Chenyi shook his head, and walked quietly to Wen Xu's bedside.Then, she bent down and took his hand outside the quilt, rubbing it lightly.

    Wen Xu was startled by his sudden movement, still itchy, and just wanted to escape.In the end, his actions were interrupted by Duan Chenyi's words.

    "Xiaoxu, next semester, do you want to consider coming over from the dormitory to live with me?"
