"oh?"
"Yes, grandpa. Grandma is very busy taking care of the kids every day, so we have a day off tonight."
"It's time to take a vacation."
Mr. Sheng washed his hands and came out to see that the table was filled with dishes that he and his granddaughter liked.
He felt sorry for the old lady, "Xiaoyan, get some fresh corn for grandpa and some fresh shrimps. I'll stir-fry some corn and shrimp for your grandma."
“Here I come!”
Su Yan picked out an extra-large corn and peeled the kernels for the old man, and she helped peel the shrimps.
When the old lady saw that the grandparents and grandchildren were cooking again, she said that there were enough dishes and she was still cooking, but she had a sweet smile on her face.
Fried corn and shrimp is quick to prepare and the dish is on the table in less than ten minutes.
"Grandpa, it turns out you really can cook?"
"You underestimated your grandpa. I knew your grandma loved this dish, so I even went to ask the chef at the restaurant for advice."
"Your grandpa only knows how to cook this dish."
"Hahaha……"
The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren poured themselves some wine and drank it while chatting and laughing.
There was also laughter at the Qin family's dining table next door.
Old Master Qin serves Xiao Rui, Gu Xiulin serves Xiao Wei, and Qin Binghua serves both the old man and his wife.
"It would be great if Xiaoyi and Xiaoyan could eat at home every day."
"Xiu Lin, that kid and Xiao Yan just need to come over for a meal every now and then. We see them every day. I know you've been complaining about the two children since we moved into the base, and you think they should live in their own home with their children. We can't think that way.
The old Sheng family had only one daughter, who passed away early, leaving Xiaoyan as the only child. Unfortunately, Xiaoyan was missing before they even saw her. It was not easy for them to recognize her, but when they found out, Xiaoyan had become a member of our Qin family. Who doesn’t know that the old lady had been sick in the capital for twenty years because of missing her daughter? It was not easy for them to find their granddaughter, who cured her heart disease. She takes care of Xiaoyan and the two children, so we should let her go. It doesn’t matter where she eats and lives. No matter where Xiaoyan and the children are, they are still members of our Qin family.”
"Dad, I don't mean anything else. I just want to take care of my grandchildren more often."
"Okay, just remember what I said."
They didn't feel anything before because they were not in the same province, but now that they live so close, Gu Xiulin has some thoughts of this and that.
After being told so bluntly by Old Master Qin, Gu Xiulin finally came to terms with it and decided to look at things from Old Lady Sheng's perspective.
After the two kids finished their meal, Gu Xiulin took them to wash their hands and faces. Grandpa Qin gave Qin Binghua some earnest instructions.
"I don't want to say too much. You have to talk to your wife. Your son has ruined her precious granddaughter when she was just 18 years old. Is it easy for her to raise two children by herself? Xiaoyan has done a lot.
Now, Xiaoyan arranges everything for us, including the food, water, and electricity. Our family is like the Sheng family. It’s not that our family lacks food and drink, but the attitude of the children. We should put ourselves in their shoes and be content.”
"Okay, Dad, I'll talk things over with her, don't worry."
Since his son and daughter-in-law were already in their several decades, Master Qin did not say much. He put his hands behind his back and went to feed Dahuang and Dahei, and then he personally sent the two little ones and the dog to the Sheng family.
Su Yan and Su Qing washed the two little ones. Actually, it was Su Qing who washed the children while Su Yan watched beside them. After the children were washed, she read children's books with the two children for half an hour and then coaxed them to bed.
I came out of the children's room, stood in front of the window of the living room on the second floor, opened the curtains and looked out. What seemed to be wrong?
She looked at the time and realized something was wrong. It was past nine o'clock in the evening and it was not completely dark yet!
I guess the polar day is coming early again.
As the name suggests, polar day means that the sky is bright for 24 hours a day. In contrast, polar night means that the sky is dark for 24 hours a day.
At first glance, the polar day seems to be a blessing in disguise for today's energy-scarce world, at least it can save a lot of electricity for lighting. But if you think about it carefully, it is not really a blessing.
Polar day can have a great impact on people's psychology and physiology, such as sleep disorders, fatigue, irritability and depression.
Once emotions cannot be controlled, many social problems will follow.
I remember that the last polar day lasted more than a year, and the eternal night after the polar day also lasted more than a year. This time the timeline does not match, and it probably has little reference value.
Su Yan had been busy in the space for a long time and came out. It was already twelve o'clock in the evening when it was completely dark. This situation should have lasted for two or three days.
