Wang Da didn't care: "There are so many, so what if I give them one to eat first? Children can't resist hunger."
Sheng Anning disagreed: "That won't work either. We can't let them develop this habit. They should wait until the whole family sits down and the elders start to eat. Only then can they understand etiquette when they grow up."
When there are no guests at home, you can prepare some food for the children in advance, but this is definitely not allowed when there are guests.
Mo Mo didn't say a word, and An An and Zhou Zhou didn't make a fuss either. They obediently followed Sheng An Ning out of the kitchen.
Wang Da was still talking: "Ah, they are all children, and they are all family members. There is no need to be so particular. This is true, not false."
Zhou Hongyun smiled and said, "An Ning is very strict about this. You see, the children didn't cry or make a fuss when they couldn't get food."
Wang Da also praised Sheng An Ning for being able to take care of children.
There was not enough space at one table for lunch, so Sheng Anning, Mu Xiaowan, Wang Da, and Zhou Hongyun took their children to eat at a small table, letting the men eat and drink at the big table.
Sheng An Ning heard that Mr. Cheng was still bickering with Zhou Shuanglu, neither of them willing to give in.
After a few drinks, they were like two old naughty boys, and finally insisted on going to the yard for a competition. Old Master Cheng looked down on Zhou Shuanglu: "You have been wasting your time in the office for these years, you definitely can't beat me."
Zhou Shuanglu drank a little and lost his calmness and self-control. He started to talk more: "Don't look at me as being in the office every day. You are at the grassroots level. If we really compare, you are definitely not my opponent. Just like before, you are still defeated by me."
When Mr. Cheng heard this, he exploded instantly. He put the wine glass in his hand down on the table and stood up: "Who are you talking about? Who is the defeated opponent? Back then, you only won me by luck. If you don't believe me, let's go and try it now."
Zhou Shuanglu stood up and said, "Go ahead. Who's afraid of you? Come on, I'll show you how you lost that year!"
Zhou Nanguang quickly stood up and advised: "Hurry up and sit down. You are almost eighty years old, why are you still acting like a child? You want to fight without even saying a word to you."
The two old men turned their heads to look at Zhou Nanguang and said almost in unison: "Why, do you also think we are old?"
As he spoke, he walked out excitedly, rolled up his sleeves, and was ready to wrestle.
Zhou Nanguang quickly gave Zhou Shixun a look, and they went to hold one of them: "Can we do it another day? Our house is small, and An An and the others are here. We might scare the kids. Another day, another day, let's go to Shixun's training ground and compete. You can try whatever you want."
Zhou Shixun grabbed Mr. Cheng's arm, making him unable to move. Zhou Shuanglu was also pulled by Zhou Nanguang, and the two could only reveal their secrets with red faces.
"Zhou Shuanglu, you defeated me that year because you were scheming and cheated. If you go back to compete again, you will definitely not win."
"If you lose, you lose. Why are you still looking for so many excuses? Don't you know that all is fair in war?"
The two of them were arguing like little kids, one after another, and it looked like they were going to fight next.
Sheng An Ning had never seen Zhou Shuanglu so childish, and was really afraid that the two would fight. While she was still thinking about how to persuade him, Old Master Cheng suddenly turned around and looked at Zhou Shixun: "If I had known earlier, I would not have married An Ning to you. If I had known that you were the grandson of Zhou Laojian, I would definitely not have let An Ning marry you."
"You looked so honest and deceived me. If you were as cunning as Zhou Laojian, I would let An Ning divorce you."
Zhou Shixun's face instantly darkened and he didn't want to bother with this old drunkard anymore.
Zhou Shuanglu was also drunk, and when he heard what Old Man Cheng said, he immediately got angry: "Look at what you said! What's wrong with Zhou Shixun? Besides, the couple is very loving, why are you talking nonsense here?"
"I think it's because the girl you liked wrote me a poem back then, and you're jealous until now."
Sheng An Ning and the others were stunned. They didn't expect that the two of them had such a fate when they were young.
After hearing this, Mr. Cheng was a little angry and embarrassed: "You are talking nonsense. Besides, you are just a pretty boy. Who knows what evil schemes you are hiding? How could Suxi like you? Even if she likes you, she was deceived by you."
Sheng Anning was even more surprised, because Suxi was her grandmother's name.
Could it be because, when grandma was young, she liked Zhou Shuanglu first, so grandpa was still resentful about it?
Zhou Shuanglu suddenly changed the subject: "I think there is something I need to make clear. Although I have been recuperating at Suxi's house, the injuries on my body were shown to me by her father. I have never had any private contact with her, and there is nothing messy or dirty between us."
"As for that love poem, it was Suxi who put it in the wrong place. Look at you, you are so old, but you are still jealous. Aren't you ashamed?"
Mr. Cheng suddenly fell silent. Finally, for some unknown reason, the two people who had just been at loggerheads shook hands and went into the house to drink.
Sheng An Ning and the others were left confused in the yard.
Wang Da sighed, "I didn't expect it. When Dad was young, he and your grandfather had such an experience. But your grandmother was pretty when she was young, and you look like her. When I married your uncle, your grandmother was already in her forties and wore coarse clothes, but her skin was still very delicate and she looked like a lady from a noble family."
Xiang Xiang laughed again: "Look at what I said, your grandmother was originally a lady from a wealthy family. I heard that her ancestor was an imperial physician in the palace, and her father's medical skills were also very good. In comparison, your grandfather was just a peasant. I was surprised at the time, how could your grandmother like your grandfather."
Sheng Anning was very curious, and she also wanted to know the stories of their youth.
It was not known whether the two old men had talked it out or had drunk too much, but at the end of the drinking, they held hands and reminisced about the battles they had fought in the past.
When they were sighing, they both cursed the Japanese devils.
Sheng An Ning found it interesting and asked Zhou Hongyun: "Have you seen my grandmother? What kind of personality is she?"
Zhou Hongyun nodded: "Yes, but your grandmother passed away early. Your father and your mother passed away not long after they got married. Your grandmother was a heroine, very powerful."
"And your grandma and your grandpa had a very good relationship. You can tell from the fact that your grandma has been gone for so long and your grandpa hasn't come back to look for her."
Sheng Anning nodded. She looked at old photos at home, including photos of her grandmother. Although the photos were blurry, she could tell that she was a heroic woman.
I didn’t expect that Zhou Shuanglu and Mr. Cheng had such a connection.
Just as he was thinking about it, Old Master Cheng came out of the house tremblingly: "Zhou Shuanglu, you have to compete with me tomorrow. If you don't come, you're a coward!"
