When An An heard about the toad, he raised his head and started to complain to his mother, his hands gestured: "Eat frog, An An eat frog."
Sheng An Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She picked up An An, whose face was wrinkled like a bun, and patiently explained to her, "That's not an edible frog. It's a toad. It can't be eaten. It's smelly and not tasty."
An An shook his little head: "I want to eat, An An wants to eat."
Sheng Chengan was confused: "Are you going to eat a toad?"
Sheng An Ning told her how An An liked to catch toads and frogs, and how she couldn't forget eating frogs after eating them once.
Sheng Chengan frowned and sighed: "An An's hobby is really unique. Aren't you afraid?"
Even if you're not scared, it's still disgusting because it's so ugly.
Not to mention that toads are poisonous.
Sheng An Ning was also troubled by An An's hobby: "It's much better now. The toads are all hibernating, and you can't find one for a long time. In the summer, after it rains, there are toads everywhere. Some are as big as a bowl. An An can catch them and put them on the sofa, in the bathroom, in the bucket, and in places you wouldn't even think of, but they will be found by accident."
Thinking back to some time ago, when she often heard Zhou Hongyun and her aunt exclaiming, Sheng An Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Sheng Cheng'an looked at An An in surprise. No wonder this little girl didn't like stuffed toys. Looking at her hobbies, they were too exciting.
I couldn't help but mutter under my breath, "You're much harder to take care of than when you were a kid."
Sheng An Ning ignored her and bought a rabbit candy for An An and Duo Duo respectively. The little girl then forgot about the frog meat she had been longing for and licked the candy happily with her uncle.
I also bought two for Zhou Zhou and Mo Mo to take back.
After such a long time, when they got home, dinner was ready. Zhou Chaoyang was also home, playing with Zhou Zhou and Mo Mo. When he saw Sheng Chengan coming in, he smiled at him for a long time without any hesitation: "You live in Shenzhen, and your hairstyle is quite fashionable. It's rare in Beijing. You must have a lot of people turning their heads when you walk on the street."
Sheng Chengan and Zhou Chaoyang were also very familiar with each other. He glanced at her and said, "Superficial."
Zhong Wenqing didn't remember Sheng Chengan. Seeing him being so intimate with everyone in the family after he came in, he couldn't help but ask Zhou Nanguang, "Is this Chaoyang's girlfriend?"
She knew that Zhou Chaoyang was married and that Chaoyang's girlfriend had gone to the front line. Now she saw a guy who looked good but was dressed in a way that she couldn't accept.
Zhou Nanguang shook his head: "No, this is An Ning's brother, who just came back from Shenzhen."
Zhong Wenqing felt relieved, thinking that Zhou Chaoyang couldn't find such an unreliable partner. Look at his hair, it was so curly that it looked like he was wearing a piece of lamb wool on his head.
Sheng Chengan and Zhou Chaoyang joked for a while and came over to greet Zhou Nanguang and Zhong Wenqing.
Be polite in your attitude and speak in a humble and courteous tone.
Zhong Wenqing had a new opinion of this second-rate young man, mainly because Sheng Chengan was good-looking and had a righteous look in his eyes.
She chatted with Sheng Chengan with a smile: "Your brother An Ning, you two look so alike, both of you are good-looking."
Sheng Chengan was thick-skinned and remained calm even after being praised: "I think I am better looking than An Ning. She was ugly when she was a child. She was dark, thin and picky about food."
Sheng Chengan was stunned. She was a beautiful little princess since she was young. When did she become dark, thin and picky about food?
Zhong Wenqing laughed: "No, no, look at how pretty An An is, she must be the same as An Ning when she was a child."
An An, who was named, nodded her head immediately: "An An looks good."
Sheng Chengan shook his head: "Aunt, what I said is true. I think An An must look like you and is as beautiful as you."
Women of all ages like to be praised.
Zhong Wenqing couldn't help but smile more: "You really know how to make people happy."
Sheng Chengan assured solemnly: "I am telling the truth. If you don't believe me, ask them."
Zhong Wenqing was in a very good mood and couldn't help but eat half a bowl more of rice.
I feel that Sheng Chengan is very interesting, speaks humorously, and has a good family education.
Sheng An Ning knew what her brother was like. He had several faces and was always decisive, cold-blooded and iron-fisted in the business world.
Only towards family members and people you care about can you have such a good temper.
After dinner, the young man took his four children for a walk in the courtyard, and Zhou Nanguang accompanied Zhong Wenqing into the house to rest.
Zhong Wenqing also sighed: "Cheng'an is a really good kid. Although he doesn't dress well, he's very smart. Why didn't Chaoyang date him?"
Zhou Nanguang was helpless: "You, don't mess around with the couple, Changfeng is also a very good kid."
Zhong Wenqing frowned: "I don't remember what Changfeng looks like. You said he is very good, then he must be very good, but if he can't be with Chaoyang, what's the point? When I was young, I suffered, and I don't want Chaoyang to suffer with me."
Zhou Nanguang patted her hands and said, "Don't think too much. There is one more thing I want to discuss with you. There are policy changes this year. Dad has retired, so we will no longer enjoy these privileges, so we have to vacate the house."
Zhong Wenqing's first reaction was: "Where will such a large family like us live?"
Zhou Nanguang has already thought of a way out: "We have an old house on Huayuan Road that we can still live in, but it's not this big."
Zhong Wenqing was relieved: "As long as there is a place to live, it's fine. The old house on Huayuan Road, I almost forgot about it."
That courtyard was left by Zhong Wenqing's father. It was a quadrangle with two courtyards, located on the edge of the Second Ring Road. It was neither big nor small.
After several twists and turns, it was finally returned to Zhong Wenqing.
But there might still be some problems for such a large family to live together.
…
In the evening, Sheng Chengan took Duoduo away. After coaxing the three children to sleep, Zhou Shixun also talked about this matter with Sheng An Ning.
Sheng An Ning was a little caught off guard: "We are moving? I thought we could live in this house forever."
Zhou Shixun shook his head: "Before, you could live in the house even after retirement, and it would not be taken back until you died. Now the policy has changed, and you have to vacate the house after retirement."
Sheng An Ning was a little worried: "Do we have no place to live? Why don't we go look for a house tomorrow? There are so many of us, so we can rent a big yard first, and then find a way to make the transition."
She also knew that Zhou Shixun's unit had houses to allocate, but they were very small. With Zhou Shixun's level, he could only get a small three-bedroom apartment of 70 square meters, where each room was very small.
But how can such a big family of theirs fit into a small three-bedroom apartment?
For the first time, Sheng An Ning started to worry about the house, and blamed herself for being so happy that she forgot that the house could not be privately owned.
I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, so I got up, took out my passbook and some cash from home, and started counting...
