Grandma Liu immediately came to talk to Xia Ruzheng: "Why do you suddenly want to move out? Is it not good to live here?"
Xia Ruzheng also wanted to live here forever! But the situation did not allow it!
"Ahem... Grandma, you're wrong. It's not like that. It's because of our family's problems. I told Zhichao that I want to bring my biological father over to live with us. There's not enough space here, so I'm thinking of buying or building a house. You two are very good people, and the house is also very good, but we have no choice!"
Grandma Liu's house is truly wonderful. Its location is excellent, its structure is sturdy, and its drainage is excellent. The yard is planted with flowers and grass. Walking into the garden, one feels a sense of tranquility and peace, a place that makes it easy to relax. Xia Ruzheng believes the happiest moment of the day is returning home after a tiring day to spend time with her husband and children, reminiscing about the day's achievements and discussing future plans. For this family, this place truly holds many memories.
Grandma Liu's eyes dimmed suddenly. "I really didn't expect it... Alas..."
Xia Ruzheng himself did not expect that in just a blink of an eye, both children were born and the house could no longer accommodate them.
Grandma Liu took Xia Ruzheng's hand and said, "No outsiders have ever lived in our house. You know, our house was originally intended for my son's wedding, but... we two rented it out to make the yard less deserted. I used to think that even with the radio on and birds in cages, it was still very lonely, so we wanted to recruit people to live in, but we were afraid that their quality was not high. Fortunately, you are the ones who came. As you have children one by one, our yard has become more and more lively. Sometimes I also tell my old man that the people living in our yard are really becoming more and more like a family..."
As Grandma Liu spoke, she choked up and was somewhat speechless. Xia Ruzheng felt increasingly distressed. Didn't she also consider the two elders as family members? Her real parents, grandparents were all in her hometown, and Xia Ruzheng had unknowingly regarded the two elders as her real grandparents.
"Grandma, don't be sad. I will let my baby come to learn dancing from you in the future. I don't trust other teachers that much!" Xia Ruzheng tried to comfort Grandma Liu with tears in his eyes.
Grandma Liu took out a handkerchief and wiped her eyes, saying, "Alright, I'm worried about leaving her to someone else! If you don't have time in the future, just let me take care of the child. I'm fine anyway..."
Xia Ruzheng's heart was aching. She was really lucky in her life. Not only did she have such an excellent husband like Wen Zhichao, but she was also able to meet Grandma Liu, Grandpa An, and people like Tian Nier. Although they met by chance, they were able to know each other, rely on each other, and trust each other. Who else could be as lucky as herself?
After Grandma Liu passed away, Xia Ruzheng felt sad and conflicted again. She still remembered the experiences of her previous life vividly. In this life, she had finally met these close friends, but were they going to be separated like this?
When Wen Zhichao came back after a busy day, he found that his wife was unhappy again.
Wen Zhichao hurriedly asked his wife what was wrong. Xia Ruzheng forced a smile and said, "Maybe I'm a little hypocritical. It's impossible to have both in this world."
Wen Zhichao said, "If you don't tell me, how do you know there's no way to achieve both?"
Xia Ruzheng thought so too. What was there for her husband to hide? So she repeated what Grandma Liu had said when she came today and said, "Actually, I'm reluctant to leave. Grandma Liu and Grandpa An are both elderly people. They live a lonely life. My father has two daughters. They have nothing. If anything happens to them in the future, no one will know."
Wen Zhichao said, "Don't overthink it. I've already asked around to see if anyone wants to sell their land. Then, we can build a house nearby so we can see each other every day. Isn't that right?"
Xia Ruzheng thought about it, nodded, and said, "It would be best if they were next to each other. Maybe we can open a door."
This is exactly what Wen Zhichao thought.
"Okay, I know. Don't worry! Comfort Grandma Liu. We won't be far away anyway. Over the years, they have treated us just as well as their own children. We must repay their kindness."
Xia Ruzheng nodded. Apart from anything else, helping to take care of the children was really almost like being the mother-in-law and father-in-law.
When Grandma Liu heard that the young couple wanted to buy a piece of land nearby to build a house, she immediately thought it was a good idea. She hurriedly asked Grandpa An to help inquire about it.
"This old man is studying engineering. If you need him, just use him."
Xia Ruzheng: ...
Is it appropriate to use the word "order" to refer to a university professor or an architectural designer? If others knew about this, how would they view them? Would they think it's better to "hit them with a stone" or "hit them with a stone"?
Of course, the young couple couldn't order Grandpa An around. It was said that Grandpa An designed this house himself. I remember he designed it when he was still young...
So, this house is half a century old? It looks like it's only been there for over a decade. An expert can tell if something is real or not with just one look!
With this professional guidance, we have gotten a great deal.
Of course Wen Zhichao knew that Grandpa An was doing this, and when he built the factory, he also asked Grandpa An many questions, such as site selection, drainage and moisture-proofing. After all, the fabric cannot be too damp, otherwise it will grow mold and yellow spots, and no one will want it.
While Grandpa An was more enthusiastic about helping Wen Zhichao build his factory, he was also more enthusiastic about helping the young couple build their new house. Grandma Liu was usually a very elegant old woman, even a little aloof with some, but to Bao Bao and Du Du, she was a truly benevolent grandmother. Grandpa An, on the other hand, was a bit more reserved, unable to braid Bao Bao or sing nursery rhymes. Instead, he held Bao Bao in his arms while he recited Tang poetry and did math. The scene was a bit odd, so the two people's images were reversed. Grandpa An's affection for the young couple was no less than Grandma Liu's, but he couldn't imitate Grandma Liu's and cry with Wen Zhichao's hand. Instead, he sighed at home.
