Today, both the man's and the woman's parents are equally important. However, in the last century, it was generally believed that once a girl married, she belonged to her husband's family and could not be too attached to her parents' family. If she cared too much for her parents' family, she would be disliked by her husband's family. But what girl doesn't miss her family? Who could turn around and ignore the family that raised her for twenty years?
This time, Xia Chunfu was completely determined to go to Guangzhou.
Xia Ruqian was worried that Xia Chunfu would run back to his hometown if he was unhappy, but Xia Ruzheng believed that after so much preparation, Xia Chunfu should not go back to his hometown.
This time, while Liu Guoqing wanted to go to Guangzhou to find Wen Zhichao for something, Xia Chunfu followed his second son-in-law to his eldest daughter's house.
Xia Ruzheng felt relieved when he heard that the two people had already set off. This had been a long-cherished wish of his, and it felt like it was really about to come true.
Xia Ruzheng went to the train station to pick someone up in person.
I waited at the train station for more than two hours before the train arrived. At this time, the train was seriously delayed.
When Xia Ruzheng saw Xia Chunfu coming out of the exit, his eyes turned red. He hadn't seen his biological father for several years, and now he looked very old.
Liu Guoqing was carrying a bag and holding Xia Chunfu's hand. It was really tiring to be on the train for such a long time.
Xia Ruzheng hurried forward to support his father and asked, "Dad, are you tired?"
Xia Chunfu waved his hand and said, "Let me sit down and rest for a while. This train is more tiring than taking a car."
It is indeed very uncomfortable to be able to move only in such a small space for such a long time.
Xia Ruzheng gave Xia Chunfu some water and fanned him for a long time before Xia Chunfu finally recovered. He said, "I'm really getting old. I feel tired even when I'm sitting or lying down."
Xia Ruzheng said, "You can't say that. We young people also feel tired when we take the train. We have back pain when we get off the train, but it's not because you are too old."
After hailing a car to go home, Liu Guoqing was also surprised when he saw the new house: "This house is really beautiful!"
Xia Ruzheng smiled and said, "Yes, it was designed for us by Mr. An. You know he is an architect."
Liu Guoqing nodded, still surprised. He considered himself knowledgeable, but he had never seen such a beautiful house.
Xia Chunfu said, "I'm afraid it must have cost a lot of money, right?"
This is not because Xia Chunfu is jealous of his daughter's wealth or anything, but because he is thinking that his daughter and son-in-law have spent so much money on business, and whether they can still make ends meet.
Xia Ruzheng said, "It's okay. Mr. An didn't charge any design fees, and Zhichao led the construction team himself, unlike others who outsourced it. He even sent his own people to buy and select the building materials, so there was less water, so he saved a lot of money. After building this house, the land cost some money."
Compared with later generations, the land prices in Guangzhou today are really very reasonable.
Even though Xia Ruzheng seldom goes out and has a hard time getting information from the outside world, he knows that in ten or twenty years, the land prices here will rise faster than a rocket!
Xia Chunfu felt a little relieved after hearing his daughter say this: "Okay! Okay! You know more than me, so of course you can do better than me."
When Wen Zhichao and Xia Ruzheng went out, Xia Chunfu gave them a lot of advice. Now the two of them can be said to be better than their teacher.
After entering the house, the two men looked around at the decoration inside. Xia Ruzheng poured tea for them. He poured an iced drink from the refrigerator for Liu Guoqing and Guangzhou herbal tea for Xia Chunfu.
"This house looks good both outside and inside," Liu Guoqing exclaimed in amazement.
Xia Ruzheng said, "Yes, now that you're here, you don't have to cramp and sleep in a small bed. The beds in our guest rooms are all large beds, big enough for a young couple with their children."
It turns out that when Liu Guoqing came, he slept in a small bed and couldn't even stretch his legs, so it was quite painful.
Liu Guoqing couldn't help laughing.
Xia Ruzheng added, "Dad, I'll arrange your room on the first floor to save you the trouble of going up and down the stairs. The toilet is right next to your room, so it's convenient for you to go to the bathroom at night."
Xia Chunfu nodded. His eldest daughter was still as careful and thoughtful as before.
At noon, Xia Ruzheng first sent Liu Guoqing to the restaurant, and then took Xia Chunfu to the elementary school to pick up the child.
"Ni'er and Baobao from Juan'er's family are in the same class. Seeing how close they are, the teacher let them sit together. We have to pick them up and drop them off four times a day, which really takes a lot of energy. If you can help me, it will save me a lot of trouble!"
The two stood under the shade of a tree at the main gate and explained the school rules to Xia Chunfu in detail: "Apart from students and teachers, it's not easy for others to enter and leave the school. This ensures the safety of the children and prevents them from being easily deceived. Also, cars are not allowed into the school. Except for school buses, no vehicles are allowed on campus unless there are special circumstances. For the next two days, I will take you to introduce you to the teachers. Juan'er and I used to pick you up. If anyone else comes to pick up these two children, the teachers will not let them go."
Xia Chunfu listened and nodded continuously. Although there are many rules in the school, the safety of the children is guaranteed!
After a while, the bell rang for the end of get out of class, and then people appeared on the campus. Groups of children walked to the school gate under the leadership of their teachers. Those who wore one, two, or three bars on their arms were the team leaders, the squadron leaders, and the team leaders respectively.
When the students arrived at the door, the teachers let them out only after they saw their parents.
"Mother!"
"Aunt!"
Two cheerful voices rang out, and Xia Ruzheng saw two children at a glance.
