Chapter 1020
He smiled and said, "Ziglar is an old man. I guess Mr. Roberts wanted to keep him company a littlelonger. I heard that Ziglar also lives alone on weekdays. Occasionally, his granddaughter comes tosee him. The old man is old and likes when the youngsters gather around, it's more lively."
That's true!
I nodded and said, "Okay, will it be held at the tourist attraction site again?"
He nodded. "I'll be bringing some things over, so there won't be much room in my truck. Mr. Robertsand the others will be taking the car, you can follow them!"
"Alright!"
Hugo continued, "By the way, Ziglar heard that you picked the fruits, so he asked for you to headover as well! Go ahead!"
I was stunned. "Didn't we pick a lot just now? Have you all eaten?"
He nodded. "Yes, yes. Evan gave us a big bag. Anyway, we're tired of eating the fruits from theorchard so there's no need to think of us."
After that, I headed over to Ziglar's office.
Upon reaching the door, I heard joyous conversations coming from the room.
It was Ziglar's voice. "Rowane, you are really good at talking. As an old man, I haven't been sohappy for a long time."
Rowane replied, "Master Attwood, don't say that. It's an honor for us, youngsters, to be here talkingto you. If you're happy, it's a great blessing!"
When these words were said, laughter immediately erupted. I can't deny that Rowane does havemore of a knack for conversing than me.
As I raised my hand to knock on the door, the conversation inside continued. Ziglar said, "Hendrix,when you and Miss Zanes got married, I was ill. I was afraid that my body couldn't handle the trip toand back. So I had to sit out."
As he said this, he took a small and refined box out of his suit pocket and handed it over to MissZanes. "Rowane, my dear, this is a little gift from me. It's not something grand or expensive. It wasfrom when I was still fighting the war in Myanway. My wife gave this to me. All these years, I've keptit dearly. It's a jade bracelet of a dragon and phoenix. Take this as a little token of my regard."
Rowane was somewhat flattered and looked at Hendrix. Her eyes was clear with one intention,asking if it was okay to accept this.
Hendrix probably did not expect Ziglar's gift. After a slight pause, he reached out and took the boxfrom Ziglar's hand and said, "Grandpa, we appreciate your kindness. This bracelet is a memento ofGrandma, we can't accept this!"
When the old man saw that he refused, he was a little unhappy and said, "Who asked you to takeit? This thing is my gift to my granddaughter-in-law. Don't touch it, it is for Rowane!"novelbin
As he spoke, he opened the box, took out the bracelet and put it on Rowane's wrist. He smiled andsaid, "Rowane, in the future, you must have a good relationship with this little brat!"
Rowane probably didn't think that she would receive such a gift as well. She looked at Hendrix,dumbfounded.
Hendrix frowned slightly, but when he looked at the happy old man, he couldn't say much.
With the initial intention of wanting to knock on the door, I held back as I saw the people insidebeing engrossed in their own conversations. Not wanting to disturb, I turned back and prepared toleave.
"Madam, you're here!" Evan suddenly appeared behind me, holding a plate full of cut fruits.
I was shocked. I took a moment to calm down before I asked, "Did you go to cut some fruits?"
