Pei Nuo hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head to disagree.
Sheng An Ning didn't force it, because she knew Pei Nuo was more dependent on Sheng Cheng'an now and would definitely not leave Sheng Cheng'an. Even if Sheng Cheng'an hurt her, she would choose to forgive him unconditionally.
He smiled and patted her dirty hands: "Okay, I'll tell my brother and let him live here too."
Pei Nuo thought about it, agreed, and nodded happily.
At lunch, Zhou Nanguang and Zhou Shuanglu were not there, but Zhou Hongyun still cooked two more dishes. Wang Da in front knew that Sheng Chengan had returned, so he sent over a big carp weighing seven or eight kilograms.
The table was filled with delicious food, almost as delicious as the Chinese New Year.
Sheng Chengan couldn't help but sigh: "Your family's living standard is definitely 20 years ahead of the times. You actually have six dishes, and they're all meat."
Sheng An Ning rolled her eyes at him: "Aren't you here? We only made six dishes, usually only two."
There would only be four dishes when Zhou Nanguang and Zhou Shuanglu were at home. In life, Zhou Hongyun was quite good at managing her finances, and she also made sure the children had good food.
However, their family's living standards are very good compared to the whole country.
In many places in the countryside, white flour and rice are still not enough to fill the stomach.
Sheng Chengan looked at the three little guys gnawing at the chicken, and said to Sheng Anning, "The place Zhou Shixun went to was quite miserable. You might not be able to buy many things there even if you had money. Why are you so depressed that you have to take the children with you when the time comes?"
"Is there a Children's Palace over there? Can children learn chess, music, calligraphy, painting and other sports? I don't know what you are thinking. What if Zhou Shixun can't be transferred back to Beijing after the children graduate from elementary school? Then the children will have to go to junior high school over there."
Sheng Anning understood what Sheng Chengan meant. When the children were in junior high school, it was already the 1990s, an era of rapid economic and cultural development.
The gap between the rich and the poor will also widen completely in that decade.
If she stayed in Beijing, it would be good for her and her children's future.
But she had made up her mind: "We are a family, we must go everywhere together. Just like you said, when the child graduated from elementary school, Zhou Shixun was not transferred back, wouldn't he have to live alone for so many years? Living apart in two places is because conditions do not allow it. Our conditions allow it, so we must be together as a family."
"Even if the education there is not as good as here, I believe our children will definitely not be bad."
Most importantly, education will not be competitive and children will grow up in a very healthy environment.
Sheng Chengan was speechless after being refuted. He bit his back teeth and said, "I didn't expect you to be a love-brained person."
Zhou Hongyun is on Sheng Anning's side: "Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. This couple should be together. If they don't see each other for a long time, even the deepest feelings will fade."
Sheng Anning raised an eyebrow at Sheng Chengan, a little proud: "How can a bachelor like you understand?"
As he said that, he quickly picked up a piece of fish for Sheng Chengan to shut his mouth and stop him from saying things he didn't like to hear.
Zhou Hongyun was still curious about what the harbor city was like, and kept asking Sheng Chengan, "Are there a lot of foreigners there? They all have blue eyes and hooked noses. I heard that foreigners eat raw meat, even if it's bloody and sticky, and they don't mind it being disgusting."
Sheng Chengan patiently told her how well done the steak should be.
After hearing this, Zhou Hongyun kept saying "Oh my god" with a look of disgust on his face: "Why are you still staying over there? Come back quickly, it's so good here."
While we were chatting, the postman shouted at the gate that there was a letter.
Sheng Anning guessed that it was either a letter from Zhou Shixun or Zhou Chaoyang, so she threw down her chopsticks and ran to get the letter.
The letter was written by Zhou Shixun, and it was a very thick letter.
Sheng Anning was very surprised that Zhou Shixun could write such a thick letter. When she opened it, she found there was another letter from Zhou Chaoyang. She was too lazy to write the envelope herself, so she asked Zhou Shixun to send it back together.
Sheng An Ning didn't go in either. She squatted in the shade of the yard and couldn't wait to read the letter. She first read Zhou Shixun's letter, which said that his company had allocated him a three-bedroom house, which would be just enough for him to live in when she brought her child there.
Moreover, there is an orchard behind the house. There are thousands of people living in the entire family compound, and there are many children as well, so An An and his family won’t be bored if they go there.
The company has very good welfare benefits. We get meat coupons every month, and we also get a lot of stuff during the Chinese New Year and other festivals.
I feel like I wrote so much just to let Sheng An Ning feel at ease taking her children there. There are two large service centers in the family compound that have everything, and it only takes an hour to get to the city by bus.
Sheng An Ning looked at him with a smile on her lips. She could imagine Zhou Shixun's anticipation when he wrote these words. He probably missed the four of them very much.
So, even if the words do not mention missing them, every sentence is about thinking about them and the scene of their family life.
Finally, it also wrote that Song Xiuyan recently fell in love with a girl who is an engineer. Her parents are both senior engineers. The girl herself is also very outstanding, so there might be hope for the two of them.
Sheng An Ning didn't expect that Zhou Shixun would gossip about Song Xiuyan in the letter. Although it was just a few short sentences, it showed that Song Xiuyan's relationship had found a place.
Her mood improved, and as she looked at the familiar handwriting, she sighed in her heart. She also missed Zhou Shixun, a man.
After reluctantly finishing reading Zhou Shixun's letter, she opened Zhou Chaoyang's letter. He was still happy in the letter, saying that he was living a good life every day. He even went to Zhou Shixun's canteen to eat when he had nothing to do. In the letter, she complained: "My eldest brother is too much. The braised pork in their canteen is much better than our big pot rice. Every time I told him to save a portion of braised pork for me, he always refused me with righteous words."
"Sister-in-law, I wish you were here. My brother would never do this. Without you telling me, he would bring you any delicious food in the cafeteria."
Sheng Anning happily watched Zhou Chaoyang complain about Zhou Shixun and her own happy life, but as she watched, she felt sad.
Everyone has found happiness, except Zhou Chaoyang who is still single.
Mu Xiaowan came out and urged him to go back to eat: "Brother Zhou's letter? You've been squatting here reading it for a long time, and we didn't dare to come over to call you. Come and eat quickly, the food is getting cold."
Sheng An Ning folded the letter, stood up and put it in his pocket, then went over to hold Mu Xiaowan's arm and said, "Hey, there's a letter from Zhou Shixun and a letter from Chaoyang. I felt really bad after reading them."
Mu Xiaowan blinked: "Are you missing Brother Zhou?"
Sheng An Ning admitted generously: "Yes, I miss him very much, but I feel more sorry for Chaoyang. Song Xiuyan already has someone he likes, what should we do with Chaoyang?"
Mu Xiaowan was very surprised: "Song Xiuyan has someone he likes? He has liked Chaoyang for so many years, how could he easily like someone else?"
Sheng An Ning didn't know either: "Maybe it's fate?"
