Chapter 18 Running

The old man and his wife did not live with their son and daughter-in-law. They lived alone in a cozy small courtyard.

Their son and daughter-in-law have been working in other places all year round, and their grandson has been living with them.

"Old Zhao, take your grandson." As soon as the old man entered the yard, he called his wife to come and hold the grandson.

A hale and hearty old man came out of the house with a pipe in his mouth, and took his grandson from Sheng Hengyu with a smile.

"If you need help, just ask." Yan Shu said directly.

The old man smiled a little embarrassedly, "We want to ask you to take a photo of my wife and me, and then go to the town to develop the photo. We are old, and we don't know how to do this."

"Yes." Yan Shu readily agreed.

Sheng Hengyu took the initiative to borrow a camera from the program group, Yan Shu moved a long bench from the house, and asked the two old people to sit side by side in the yard.

"Does the grandson want to take pictures together?" Sheng Hengyu asked.

"If you don't shoot him, can you hug him for us?" said the old man.

Yan Shu reached out to pick up her little grandson, but Sheng Hengyu stuffed the camera into her hand, and then took the little grandson from Old Zhao.

"The child is not light, let me hold it." Sheng Hengyu explained in Yan Shu's ear coolly.

Yan Shu pursed his lips and smiled lightly, and raised his camera to the two elderly people, "Smile, both of you."

The old man touched shoulders, turned his head in the direction of each other, and had a simple and warm smile on his face.

Yan Shu found the right angle, pressed the camera, and looked at the two elderly people in the viewfinder who leaned their heads and smiled, and she couldn't help laughing too.

After taking the photo, the old man took out 300 yuan from his wallet and handed it to Yan Shu.

"You guys go to the town to develop photos, and eat some food in the town by the way, I treat you to eat." The old man stuffed the money into Yan Shu's hand.

Yan Shu only took a hundred pieces from the old man, "I can't use that much, but I can't use up a hundred."

The old man still wanted to put money into Yan Shu's hands, but Yan Shu refused.

Yan Shu and Sheng Hengyu bid farewell to the old man's family of three, and took a boat to the town.

Because it was late at night when the two arrived in the town, Yan Shu and Sheng Hengyu didn't see what the town looked like at that time.

The two of them went out at public expense today, which can be regarded as seeing the town clearly.

The town is not big, but it is full of fireworks.

Today seems to be the day of the rally. As soon as Yan Shu and Sheng Hengyu landed, they saw a crowd of people.

It seems that because young and middle-aged people have gone out to work, so at first glance, there are still more middle-aged and elderly people on the street.

Most of the passers-by had smiles on their faces. Even when they saw a large group of photographers surrounding Yan Shu and Sheng Hengyu, they just stopped curiously not far away to watch.

"Do I need to wear a mask and hat?" the staff asked.

"I don't need it." Yan Shu refused, "The weather is quite hot, those Dai people might think we are some suspicious people."

"Listen to her." Sheng Hengyu subconsciously said.

After finishing speaking, he added in embarrassment, "They probably don't even know us."

Yan Shu didn't say much, and walked to the center of the town with Sheng Hengyu.

Because there were a lot of electric vehicles and pedestrians on the street, Yan Shu didn't take two steps before being squeezed and bumped into Sheng Hengyu.

"Be careful." Sheng Hengyu stretched out his hand to support Yan Shu's shoulder, and led the people to take two steps towards the sparsely populated place.

"You can develop photos over there." Yan Shu pointed to a shop with "Small Town Photo Studio" on the signboard, and turned to greet Sheng Hengyu, "Let's go and have a look."

Sheng Hengyu nodded, "Go behind me."

After finishing speaking, he pushed aside the flow of people and walked to the photo studio.

Yan Shu followed behind him, walking very smoothly.

Looking at Sheng Hengyu's back, Yan Shu seemed to understand why the original Yan Shu fell in love with him.

It only costs 10 yuan to develop photos in the photo studio, and Yan Shu chose a frame for the photos in the store, and the total cost is only 15 yuan.

Ten minutes later, the two walked into the crowd again with the framed and boxed photos.

"What to eat?" Sheng Hengyu was a little hungry.

Yan Shu put the box with the photo frame into his backpack, without raising his head, he said, "I want to eat meat, a little wine would be better."

"Meat is fine, but the wine is free." Sheng Hengyu took Yan Shu to a noodle shop on the street.

The two entered the store and looked up at the menu on the wall together.

"Snail noodles, it sounds delicious." Yan Shu has never eaten this stuff, and there is no memory of snail noodles in the memory of the original owner.

"No." Sheng Hengyu said, "You are not allowed to eat this today."

"Why?" Yan Shu was curious.

Before Sheng Hengyu could speak, he saw the proprietress passing by the two of them with a bowl of snail noodles.

In an instant, Yan Shu smelled a strange stench.

She frowned and subconsciously held her breath.

Sheng Hengyu saw her reaction in his eyes, and said with a smile, "That's snail noodles, do you know why you are not allowed to eat it?"

Yan Shu nodded, "Then I want a big row of fans, how about you?"

"I want beef vermicelli." Sheng Hengyu sat still.

Yan Shu understood instantly, and went to the front desk to order after putting the backpack on the seat.

The two bowls of vermicelli cost a total of 30 yuan, plus the cost of developing photos and round-trip boat tickets, and the 100 given by the old man left 47 yuan.

The audience in front of the screen watched with gusto.

"Brother Yu and Yan Shu are lucky enough to be able to eat in the town."

"Wow, the prices in the town are so low, I shed tears of envy in Shanghai."

"Hahaha, Yan Shu is going to kill me with laughter, you don't know anything about the power of snail powder."

"The fans of this restaurant look delicious."

"If the two of you do food and broadcast together, I will definitely watch it."



Yan Shu collected the money, turned around and went back, and saw two young girls in their twenties sitting opposite Sheng Hengyu.

"Are you Sheng Hengyu?" The little girl with ponytails looked at Sheng Hengyu excitedly, and even reached out to grab his hand.

Sheng Hengyu withdrew his hand coldly, but still maintained a gentlemanly demeanor, "No."

Turning his head and seeing Yan Shu, he said again, "My companion is back."

"There are only two of you, isn't there two empty seats opposite, let's share a table with you." The girl with a single ponytail was also very excited.

Even though Sheng Hengyu denied her identity, the two still had no intention of leaving.

Yan Shu looked around the store, seeing that there were really no more vacant seats, so he could only sit next to Sheng Hengyu.

"You are Yan Shu." The little girl with ponytails looked at Yan Shu, "I know, I know, you are not Sheng Hengyu and Yan Shu, I understand."

"I watched the live broadcast just now, and I didn't expect to meet you here." The little ponytail girl's hands were shaking with excitement, "I invite you to drink milk tea."

Said, the little girl put the cup of milk tea in her hand to Sheng Hengyu's hand.

Sheng Hengyu frowned, and was about to say no, when Yan Shu stretched out his hand to block the cup of milk tea from the little girl with a ponytail, and said with a smile, "He doesn't like sweet drinks, so drink it yourself."

The little girl with a single ponytail was obviously upset, she frowned and looked at Yan Shu, "You're not my brother, how do you know he doesn't drink?"

"Brother, what do you want to drink, I'll buy it for you." The little girl with two ponytails next to her elbowed her companion, signaling her to stop talking.

"No need, I don't drink drinks from others." Sheng Hengyu simply refused, reached out and took the mineral water Yan Shu gave him, and took a sip.

The two little girls struck up a conversation frequently and were treated coldly, and their faces were a little overwhelmed for a while.

But they just had the cheek to refuse to leave.

Yan Shu and Sheng Hengyu couldn't chase people away, they could only be fans silently under the gaze of the two of them.

The audience in front of the screen also became angry when they saw this.

"At first, I was a little envious that they could meet Teacher Sheng and Yan Yan, but now I think they might have come to block them on purpose!"

"Wait, why does she still want to touch Teacher Sheng's hand! Is this an illegitimate student??"

"The program group doesn't care?"

"Good job Yan Shu! We must protect our Brother Yu!"

"The two of them are so annoying!"

"She still flirts at Yan Shu, it's too much, it's really rude!"

"Yuge Yanyan, let's go after eating, the good mood of eating has been affected."



Yan Shu and Sheng Hengyu didn't like the taste of the meal, they immediately took their bags and got up to leave after eating.

Seeing that they were going to leave, the two little girls followed them even if they hadn't finished eating the noodles in the bowl.

Sheng Heng met those two people and continued to follow, turned his head and Yan Shu looked at each other.

"run?"

"good."
