My deskmate is always catching me [Rebirth]

Lu Jinnan placed the photos picked up by Lu Xiao on the tea table, pointed at them and said, "Do you know about this?"

Ye Cheng and Lu Xiao stay together almost every day. Secretary Zhang said that they even eat and go to the toilet together. Some people in the company tease them that they are not real brothers but are better than real brothers.

Ye Cheng couldn't help but shook his head and admitted: "I'm sorry, Grandpa."

Lu Jinnan sighed heavily and looked at him with disappointment, "I thought you were a good boy who couldn't lie. What can you say to me like this?"

Ye Cheng lowered his head silently and did not answer.

"Tell me the truth, does Lu Xiao not like this girl, or does he already have someone he likes outside?"

Lu Jinnan observed his expression and seemed to notice something.

Ye Cheng was a little hesitant, but at this moment, Lu Jinnan's cell phone rang.

He glanced at the screen, turned it on and put it to his ear: "Hey, Xiao Li, what's the matter?"

At the same time, he waved to Ye Cheng, signaling him to go out.

Ye Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, bowed and exited the room.

I don't know what Meng Li said to Lu Jinnan. He went downstairs to say hello to Lu Yuelin and Ye Cheng, and hurried out.

Lu Yuelin made an invitation gesture and said: "Xiao? Ye, there is no one else at home, let's have dinner together."

Except for banquets, all meals and activities at home are in the old building at the back.

The old building is different from the previous one. It is more of an ancient style building.

There were pavilions and pavilions, eaves and walls, and the sound of spring water in the garden. Auntie led them through the corridor. There was a pond in the yard. From this section of the road, the light was much darker than in the front yard.

Ye Cheng looked at the other side of the pond, where was the ancestral hall.

Lu Yuelin didn't care about his eldest nephew at all. He politely asked Ye Cheng to sit down at the round dining table and waited for the chef to bring the dishes one after another.

Ye Cheng had hardly been alone with him in his previous life, and now he felt awkward everywhere.

Lu Yuelin was enjoying the food. He enthusiastically introduced the dishes and asked him: "What mistake did Xiaoxiao make? Did he miss the payment, or did he lose his temper and annoy the customer?"

Ye Cheng's face was light and he said: "Uncle, are you feeling sorry for your nephew when you ask this? No, I picked some vegetables and put them in bowls. You can send them to him. He will definitely thank you."

"

Lu Yuelin choked and touched his nose awkwardly: "It's not that I don't want to? Give him food, but the old man won't let me. What can I do?"

According to the Lu family's rules, people are not allowed to eat in the ancestral hall. They think that is disrespectful.

To put it bluntly, if I punish you by kneeling down, you will starve.

Lu Yuelin realized that it was impossible for Ye Cheng to reveal the information, so he picked up the crab legs of the king crab and started to chew on it.

After finishing the meal, Ye Cheng wiped his mouth and said, "Uncle Lu, I heard from grandpa that aunt is happy."

"Huh? That's right, I just got pregnant not long ago." Lu Yuelin put down his chopsticks and said happily.

Ye Cheng said: "Congratulations, by the way, pregnant women should take some folic acid."

"What?" Lu Yuelin didn't know why.

Ye Cheng didn't say anything more, got up and left.

In the afternoon, he finished all the documents in the study, and then went to the kitchen to hang out with his pocket in his pocket.

A chef with a beer belly chatted happily with him and gave him a few pieces of snowflake cake.

Lu Jinnan came back during dinner, his face looking clouded.

No one at the table dared to say a word. Even the idiot Lu Yuelin restrained himself a lot and just ate his food.

Lu Jinnan went back to the room after eating halfway, leaving only Ye Cheng and Lu Yuelin staring at each other. Ye Cheng was so embarrassed by him that he found it hard to eat, so he found an excuse to sneak back to the room.

Every time he comes to the old house, he always stays in the guest room on the south side.

The clock passed eleven o'clock, and the house was quiet. Lu Jinnan didn't sleep well, so no one walked around the house at night.

Ye Cheng took out the snowflake cake given by the chef, dug out from under the pillow the bagged milk that he had not drank at noon, and went downstairs in the dark in a familiar way.

He first found the refrigerator, but found that there were no leftovers in it.

So I opened the kitchen cabinet again. Apart from all kinds of unprocessed ingredients, there wasn't even a package of instant noodles...

Fortunately, there was still some white fungus porridge in the pot that Auntie had not finished. He filled it with an empty mineral water bottle and walked cautiously towards the ancestral hall.

Ye Cheng is very familiar with the old house. The only thing that hinders him is that the surroundings are too dark.

In order to match the buildings in the backyard, even the chandeliers in the corridor are imitations of ancient lanterns.

When the wind blows, the lamp shadows sway, which is very scary.

He wrapped himself in a tight blanket and walked quickly to the ancestral hall.

Through the crack in the door, the smell of burning incense wafted inside.

Ye Cheng endured the discomfort and quietly shouted at the door: "Lu Xiao, Lu Xiao?"

——No? No response at all.

This bitch is probably asleep again?

He had no choice but to push open the door and enter, silently saying in his mind, "I didn't mean to disturb you, I'm sorry."

The heavy wooden door made a creaking sound, which was particularly harsh in the silent night. The howling of wild cats could be heard from the pond, and water droplets fell.

The light in the ancestral hall shone over, and Ye Cheng's whole body was filled with horror. He resolutely rushed in, shouting as he ran: "Lu Xiao!!"

Lu Xiao was sitting on the futon and dozing off, when he vaguely heard a familiar voice calling him.

He opened his eyes in a daze, and a figure ran into his arms.

"Ah ah ah, can't there be a light at the door?"

Lu Xiao: “…”

"Why are you here?" He looked at Ye Cheng in surprise, "No, how did you find this place?"

Ye Cheng took a breath and tried to calm down his pounding heart. He said speechlessly: "Can't we catch that wild cat at home and have it sterilized? How many times does it have to come every month?"

Lu Xiao is a little confused.

Ye Cheng shook the bag in his hand and said, "You are hungry, I brought you something to eat."

He turned around again and clasped his hands together and said, "Ancestors, you can't bear to have your little great-grandchildren suffer from hunger."

"Pfft--" Lu Xiao couldn't hold back and laughed.

The first time they were forced to kneel together, Lu Xiao had a lot of experience and hid a roasted sweet potato in his pocket and took it out for Ye Cheng to eat at night. At that time, Ye Cheng was still very well-behaved and embarrassed.

Said: "Didn't Grandpa say that eating is not allowed in the ancestral hall?"

Lu Xiao peeled off the skin of the sweet potato, gave the meat to him, gnawed the meat on the skin, and said vaguely: "He said that on purpose, just to make us hungry. My dad, my uncle, they?"

Let’s all eat, for our ancestors would not bear to let us go hungry.”

"As expected of the daughter-in-law of our Lu family, she is so clever." Lu Xiao chuckled, picked up the snowflake cake and took a bite.

He had been hungry all day, and his mouth was full of dregs.

Ye Cheng looked at him as if he saw Lu Xiao in his memory.

No matter how old you are, you are still as childish as ever.

He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to wipe his mouth and said, "Sloppy."

Lu Xiao handed the half-bitten snowflake pastry to his mouth and said, "This is Master Qiao's craftsmanship. I have loved this bite since I was a child. You should try it too."

"I'm not hungry." Ye Cheng avoided his hand, but his stomach growled.

He couldn't even eat at night, but now his stomach started to work.

Lu Xiao burst out laughing, so frightened that Ye Cheng blushed and covered his mouth.

As a last resort, he took a bite from Lu Xiao's hand. Unexpectedly, it tasted really good. Even he, who doesn't like sweets, found it delicious.

But sweets are sweets after all, and Ye Cheng got tired of them after just a few bites.

But there is a kind of hunger that makes your husband think you are hungry.

Lu Xiao heard his stomach growling and insisted on sharing the remaining white fungus porridge with him.

Ye Cheng almost vomited from the disgusting taste and resisted to the point of saying that he didn't want to eat it.

In order to "coax his disobedient wife to have a good meal", Lu Xiao suggested that they play guessing games and whoever wins would have a sip of white fungus porridge.

"Why don't the losers drink?" Ye Cheng said, "I don't want to at all? Can you drink?"

Lu Xiaocong Shan Ruliu: "Okay, then let's drink the loser, come on."

He rolled up his sleeves and extended his right hand enthusiastically.

Ye Cheng: "...You are so boring, can you drink it by yourself?"

"No, be good, don't make trouble."

"..."

So the two of them played rock-paper-scissors, and whoever lost took a sip of white fungus porridge, one after another, and finished the bottle.

Ye Cheng took a deep breath and felt his stomach, feeling like he was about to vomit.

"I'm going back to sleep, good night." He dragged his body to stand up and said.

Lu Xiao tugged at the corner of his clothes: "Let's continue guessing. If you win, I will sleep with you in the ancestral hall. If you lose, you will sleep with me in the ancestral hall."

Ye Cheng finally couldn't bear it anymore and kicked their little great-grandson in front of his ancestors, "Get out——!"

Early in the morning the next day, before the chickens in the cage crow, the sound of "hooking, drinking, drinking" could be heard outside.

Ye Cheng opened his eyes dimly due to sleepiness and knew that it was Lu Jinnan who was jogging in the morning.

When he first moved into the old house, he didn't know about Lu Jinnan's habits.

That day, he had to get up early because he had a guest at home. The night before, he was tortured so much that in the morning, after brushing his teeth with his eyes closed, Lu Xiao forced him to drink milk.

Ye Cheng didn't like drinking milk in the first place, and with a hint of rebelliousness, when Lu Xiao turned around, he angrily pushed open the window and poured the milk down.

The consequences can be imagined. As soon as Lu Jinnan walked out of the door, milk was poured on his head.

In the cold weather of the twelfth lunar month, Lu Jinnan wore a Chinese tunic suit and ran around the yard.

When he ran to the door of the ancestral hall, he stopped and wanted to see his precious grandson.

Lu Jinnan pushed the door open and stepped in, only to see his grandson lying on the blanket, sleeping with his head stretched out, drooling, and there were cake crumbs stuck to the corner of his mouth.

A few pieces of white fungus porridge were solidified on the navy blue coat.

Lu Xiao turned over, rolled under Lu Jinnan's feet, tugged at his trousers and said, "I'm so sleepy, baby, please sleep a little longer."

Lu Jinnan: "..."

Five minutes later, the yard was buzzing with chaos.

Lu Jinnan took a randomly broken branch and chased Lu Xiao all over the yard.

"You stinky brat! I asked you to reflect. You were eating and drinking indiscriminately! And you were having those obscene dreams!"

"Grandpa! I was wrong! Yes? Speak calmly and don't do anything! Let me go, why are you running so fast..."

Auntie stood by the door with a broom in her hand to watch the fun. She smiled and said hello to Ye Cheng who had just come downstairs: "Xiao, classmate Ye, wake up. The master is doing morning exercises. Do you want to come together?"

?”

Lu Yuelin rushed out from the room on the first floor with a mouth full of toothpaste. While putting on his clothes, he asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong? I heard something shocking and earth-shattering outside early in the morning."

"Oh, old man, that's a peach tree that I have planted for almost ten years. Why don't you hit it with a feather duster?" Master Qiao in the kitchen squatted with a big belly and said with regret.

After a lot of fuss, in the tea room.

Lu Xiao obediently lowered his hands and knelt down in front of Lu Jinnan.

Ye Cheng stood aside awkwardly, not knowing what to do.

Lu Yuelin poked his head at the door, but Lu Jinnan threw a teapot out, "Get away!"

The tea room became quiet again.

Ye Cheng secretly touched Lu Xiao with his foot, signaling him to take the initiative to admit his mistake.

Lu Xiao looked stubborn and turned away angrily.

When Lu Jinnan saw this scene, his eyes became even deeper.
