It was not until after Gan Yingchao and Mei celebrated Chen Chunhua's 70th birthday at home that they stopped going out.
Chen Chunhua said that after ten years of ups and downs, she wanted to live a quiet life in the days to come.
At first, Lin Guoqing didn't realize what a quiet day was until Chen Chunhua delivered the packages to his home one by one, instructed him to assemble his embroidery frame, and then start cross-stitching.
Lin Guoqing: ...
"You're already seventy, and you're still doing something so straining on your eyes?"
Chen Chunhua, wearing a pair of reading glasses, huddled in a small sofa by the window, pricking the needle one by one, and felt it felt really good.
"I'm already presbyopic, so why would I bother worrying about whether I'm tired or not? Besides, you don't understand the joy of this job."
A few years ago, she became interested in this hobby while browsing her phone. She felt that the finished pictures were particularly beautiful. Although it was time-consuming, she could feel the sense of accomplishment after completion through the phone.
Chen Chunhua felt that she'd expended physical effort in her previous life, and in this one, she'd been using her brain. Thinking for too long was tiring. Sitting here, listening to novels, embroidering cross-stitch, and freeing her mind was something she hadn't experienced in a long, long time.
She had been traveling before and hadn't been able to try it, but now that she was completely at home, she had to give it a try.
"Real rest is when both your physical and mental strength are rested," Grandma Chunhua defined.
Lin Guoqing was speechless. Why didn't he think that cross-stitching was not physically demanding?
But he knew very well that money could not buy what he loved, so he didn't say much.
However, from that day on, the style of "Old Lin and Old Shen's Happy Life" suddenly changed. From the wonderful journey and delicious food, it turned into a peaceful pastoral life with light tea and wine.
Every time Lin Guoqing's camera swept over Chen Chunhua, she was embroidering cross-stitch. Fans left messages asking Grandma Chunhua to embroider less and be careful not to hurt her cervical spine.
However, Chen Chunhua has just found the enjoyment of embroidery and doesn't want to stop at all. She starts embroidering from the moment she wakes up until she goes to bed every day.
During this time, except for going to the toilet and drinking water, only Liang Shengdi could wake her up from the sofa, because the old lady was hungry and needed to eat.
For the convenience of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Lin Guoqing directly moved Liang Shengdi's recliner and tablet together with Chen Chunhua. The 98-year-old mother-in-law and 70-year-old daughter-in-law sat there side by side, one watching TV and the other embroidering cross-stitch.
Sometimes when they see something exciting, they can discuss the plot.
Liang Shengdi felt it was great that they were back, as she wasn't bored during the day anymore.
Lin Guoqing no longer feels that the quiet life is boring. Recently, he has begun to formally study cooking. Chen Chunhua is addicted to cross-stitch, so he has to cook the meal.
If the food was too bad, Liang Shengdi wouldn't indulge him and would order takeout again. So Lin Guoqing had to put in the effort. Now, not only did he have to film his daily life, he also had to study cooking. It wasn't any more relaxing than when he was out.
The style of daily VOLG has changed again. The account even gained a large number of fans because of the dark dishes made by Lin Guoqing time and time again, and the scene where Liang Shengdi picked up her phone to order takeout in front of her with disgust, and the account also gained a large number of fans.
Everyone said that Grandma Chunhua was so lucky, Grandpa Guoqing was so miserable, and Grandma Liang was so funny.
It is said that Liang Shengdi was illiterate all her life, but she managed to learn to read before she turned 100, just to order takeout.
Chen Chunhua was shocked when she first ate the takeout Liang Shengdi ordered for her. It turned out that this old lady would do anything for food.
The three old men and women, who are almost 250 years old (not even 250 years old) together, live together in an unusually harmonious way, even more relaxed than when they were young. When Lin Shuchao brought his wife and children to eat, he was even disdained, breaking the tranquility of the three of them.
Lin Shuchao really wanted to cry but had no tears.
Lin Shugan was finally transferred back in the year of Liang Shengdi's 100th birthday. He and Li Bingqing did not live in the nearby housing provided by the unit, but preferred to drive half an hour more every day and live back in the village, living with their parents and grandmother.
He hadn't had such a lively life in a long time, and as he reached middle age, he cherished such days even more. Every day after work, he would go home to buy groceries and then discuss the recipe for dinner with his father.
Whenever the elderly had any problems, he would be the first to rush to the front line, and even refused to let other brothers and sisters pay for it. He felt that he had not been with his parents for 30 years, and he should be responsible for the next 30 years.
With both sons by her side and two daughters coming back to see them every few days, Chen Chunhua feels that this life is truly worth it. In the days to come, she will probably live one more day and enjoy one more day.
Lin Guoqing was more open-minded than her. He felt that living to 80 was enough, and he might not even live to be 80.
Chen Chunhua: ...Is this person suffering from Alzheimer's? Is there anyone who wishes himself an early death?
"No, I really don't think I'll live long," Lin Guoqing analyzed seriously. "It seems our Lin family doesn't have the genes for longevity. Look at my dad, he died in his fifties. My grandma was in her sixties, and my grandpa died even earlier.
And my great-grandfather and great-grandmother, if they lived a little longer, they would have lived to their early seventies..."
Therefore, Lin Guoqing concluded that he was able to live to be eighty because his ancestors blessed him in the underworld.
Chen Chunhua rolled her eyes and turned to Liang Shengdi to complain, "Mom, your son is cursing you to die early."
"What!" Liang Shengdi was still immersed in the beauty of the Demon Lord. When she heard that her son was not farting properly again, she threw a fruit core at him.
"You unfilial son! You don't want me to be alive! Are you disgusted by the fact that I eat too much?"
She still has so many delicious foods she wants to eat again, and so many handsome men and beautiful women in TV dramas she hasn’t seen yet. And she still wants to live a few more years! Lin Guoqing, this unfilial son!
Lin Guoqing was hit on the head by a fruit core and cried out in grievance, "I didn't do that! I was saying I won't live long!"
Chen Chunhua poked the needle expressionlessly and continued to complain, "Mom, he didn't count you as a member of the Lin family."
Lin Guoqing: "!!! Chen Chunhua! You can't distort the facts like this!"
"How am I twisted? You were the one who said you have bad genes and won't live long. So, you think you're not your mother's biological child?"
Isn't the biggest sign of longevity in their family Mrs. Liang? He was just walking into a trap when he said this.
Liang Shengdi was curled up in her chair and had already started rolling up her sleeves. Lin Guoqing quickly ran away and changed the subject.
"Who said that just now? How come I didn't know? Who cursed me to live a short life? I must live a few more years! Otherwise, who will cook for you two? I am a chef now! Chef! You two are used to eating my food, how can you eat food cooked by others?
I, I also want to live to be a hundred years old!"
The collective goal of the Lin family must be to live to be a hundred years old!
