Chapter 355 The Joy of Fishing
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Jiang Ping and Tan Shaowen's vacation is over.
They all knew that Tan Chen had a lot of things to do here and couldn't leave for the time being, so they didn't mention the original plan to take him and Shang Ruoting to the capital.
Mr. Tan had only been here for a few days but he had already fallen deeply in love with this place. Not only could he see his handsome eldest grandson, but he could also eat the Li Ji delicacies that he had been thinking about for almost his entire life.
More importantly, there are mountains and water here, as well as a greenhouse built by his granddaughter-in-law. He goes to see it every day and picks a big strawberry or tomato to eat on the spot. This has become a pleasure for the old man.
Mr. Tan felt that during the few days since he came to Sihe Village, his old arms and legs, which were originally not very flexible, had become much lighter.
Seeing Tan Shaowen and Jiang Ping helping him pack his things, the old man became anxious.
"I won't go back with you. I'll stay here and see my eldest grandson every day, and soon I'll see my great-grandson too."
Tan Shaowen and Jiang Ping both understood Mr. Tan's thoughts, but after all, his physical condition was not very stable. If the heart attack recurred, it would be convenient to rescue him if he was in Beijing.
It’s different if we stay here. Not to mention the medical level in the county town, the distance from Sihe Village to the county town is also very long. It would be bad if the rescue time is delayed.
"Dad, come back with us first, and we'll come over later." Tan Shaowen could only coax him like a child.
Mr. Tan refused directly: "No, I will stay here for a while and then you can come and pick me up."
Seeing this, Tan Chen also spoke up for his grandfather: "Dad, let grandpa stay. I will take good care of him."
It was the first time that the old man's guard saw the old leader lose his temper. He felt a little distressed and tried to plead for him.
"Brigade Commander Tan, I'm accompanying the old commander and will take good care of him."
Tan Shaowen and Jiang Ping looked at each other, knowing that they could not persuade Mr. Tan no matter what, so they had no choice but to agree.
"Dad, you have a bad heart. Don't get angry about anything. If you feel unwell, tell Tan Chen as soon as possible and ask him to take you to the hospital."
Mr. Tan waved his hand: "Oh... I understand..."
Long-winded...
Tan Shaowen had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
The next day, Tan Shaowen and Jiang Ping left reluctantly.
I don’t know when I will be reunited with my son again.
Recently, Tan Chen goes to Zhuang City every one or two days to check on the progress of the house construction, but he always goes back and forth on the same day.
Life at home was no different from before except for the presence of an old man and a guard.
Shang Ruoting can't sit still at all. When she has nothing to do, she will go to the greenhouse to take a look.
She saw that Mr. Tan was usually very bored except for wandering around in the greenhouse.
So after discussing with Tan Chen, he took out a fishing rod from the space and gave it to him, saying that this fishing rod was an imported product that Tan Chen bought when he was in Beijing. The old man didn't doubt it at all. After all, imported products are all kinds of strange, and it is not surprising to have such an advanced fishing rod.
It just so happened that there were fish in the pond on the other side of the wasteland, so Tan Chen specially built a sunshade for his grandfather, and also made a small portable chair inside as Shang Ruoting had suggested.
Mr. Tan spent the first half of his life fighting all over the place, and later went to the Northwest for reform. He had never experienced the joy of fishing.
Now that his grandson and granddaughter-in-law are filial, they have done these things to prevent him from being lonely. Naturally, the old man wants to enjoy the fun of fishing.
It doesn't matter what he feels. Ever since Mr. Tan caught his first crucian carp, he has been completely addicted.
Except for eating and sleeping time, I spend almost all day fishing by the pond.
Therefore, there would be one or two fish dishes on the Tan Chen family’s table every day.
Mr. Tan is in a good mood and feels much more comfortable than before. Usually, he would feel that his heart could not bear the pressure after walking a few steps quickly. Now, he doesn’t feel uncomfortable even after jogging for a while.
This was something he himself had not expected.
It turns out that physical and mental happiness is more effective than taking medicine.
Shang Ruoting discovered a problem these days, that is, her belly was growing very fast. Now there were only a few days until the third month, but there was already a slight bulge.
Although she had never given birth to a child in her previous life, many of her classmates and friends had already become mothers.
Shang Ruoting remembered that those people's bellies seemed to become visible only after three or four months of pregnancy, but what was the situation with her own belly now?
Could it be that she was careless and remembered the wrong date of her last period?
Or maybe I have gained weight because I have eaten too much recently?
Thinking about these two reasons, neither is very likely. Even if she remembered the wrong time of her last menstrual period, it would not be invisible during the hospital examination.
If I eat too much, why does only my stomach grow and no other parts of my body change?
Since I can’t figure it out, I’ll just stop thinking about it.
