"You're just talking nonsense. What does this have to do with children?"
Comrade Lao Du shook his head, not believing Du Chen's words at all. Lao Ding also stared at Du Chen, wanting to see what Du Chen could say.
"Dad, I just want to ask you, when you have grandchildren in the future, will you help my brother take care of the children?"
Du Chen talked freely and then asked Comrade Lao Du.
On the other side, although Ding Miaomiao's face was red, she also wanted to hear how Du Chen argued.
"That's for sure!"
Comrade Lao Du answered Du Chen's question as a matter of course.
"Dad, I'm telling you, no matter how big our house can be, how big can it be? Besides, there are so many cars and people in the city. Would you like your grandchildren to stay in the city in the future? Let them go out and play? You're worried about them staying at home? How big can our house be? The children will get suffocated all day long. So, wouldn't a small Western-style building in the residential area be better? There's plenty of space and a small yard where the children can do whatever they want. The air is also good, and the vegetables we buy are freshly picked from the fields in the surrounding villages, right? So, would you rather stay in the city or in the residential area?"
Du Chen went around for a long time before finally expressing his thoughts and opinions.
"What you said makes sense."
Comrade Lao Du touched his chin and admitted that what Du Chen said made sense, and that he was indeed persuaded by Du Chen. He thought it was really good to stay in the living area. After all, he had been there for many years.
"Uncle Ding, what do you think? As a grandfather, do you think it's better to live in the city or in the residential area?"
Du Chen turned around and asked Lao Ding with a smile. Lao Ding snorted and didn't answer, but he agreed with Du Chen's idea in his heart.
"Dad, you can also raise a cow and milk it yourself for your grandchildren to drink!"
Du Chen continued to seduce Comrade Lao Du.
"You have a point. I think it's pretty good, but it will take at least three or four years, right? What does it have to do with the current renovation?"
Although Comrade Lao Du admitted that what Du Chen said made sense, he remained unmoved and continued to ask Du Chen why.
"Hey, Dad, whether it's three or four years or not, it's not up to you to decide. That depends on my brother and sister Miaomiao."
Du Chen did not answer Comrade Lao Du's question immediately, but instead teased Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao. Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao were not rookies either, so they naturally understood what Du Chen meant. As a result, both of them blushed after being scolded by Du Chen.
"Stop talking nonsense and continue stating your reasons!"
Comrade Lao Du looked at the embarrassed Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao, smiled, and asked Du Chen again, reminding Du Chen not to continue joking.
"Dad, I'm buying furniture now for the good of the children. New furniture contains formaldehyde, which is carcinogenic and can cause leukemia. In short, it's a very dangerous chemical. However, formaldehyde is widely found in floor tiles and furniture, so buying furniture in advance can help dissipate the odor. After three or four years, there will definitely be no formaldehyde left, which is also good for the children's health!"
Du Chen finally gave the reason.
"Second brother, your excuse is really powerful!"
Old Ding laughed at Du Chen. He didn't believe Du Chen's nonsense.
"This is true, Uncle Ding. My aunt used to be a chemistry teacher. You can ask her if formaldehyde can cause cancer or induce leukemia. So, after renovating a house, you must get rid of the odor and let the formaldehyde evaporate naturally!"
"Are you telling the truth, second brother?"
Comrade Lao Du asked Du Chen doubtfully.
"Really, Dad, I do want to renovate that little Western-style house, and I do want to spend the New Year there, but this formaldehyde issue is the real core. I definitely won't lie to you."
Du Chen spoke to Comrade Lao Du and Lao Ding with certainty.
"Then tell me how you plan to decorate the house over there?"
Comrade Lao Du asked Du Chen with great interest.
"Dad, the room on the second floor is a suite. I'm planning to put two chess and card tables in the inner room so everyone can play mahjong and poker, and put a few computers for gaming. The outer room is bigger, so I'll put a pool table in it, a row of sofas, and a TV with VCDs. Everyone can watch movies or sing songs if they want. What do you think?"
"That's great. You guys can do it for fun! But how are you going to decorate the other rooms? I have to have a reason to talk to your mom about this, right?"
Comrade Lao Du continued to ask Du Chen.
"Just buy a few beds for the other rooms, and prepare all the daily necessities like wardrobes. I don't think it's expensive."
"Okay, I get it. You guys go get your own room first. As for the rest, I'll discuss it with your mom after you go home!"
Comrade Lao Du did not promise Du Chen anything, but just asked him to set up his own game room first.
"Chenchen, where are we going now?"
After leaving the 4S store, Du Bin didn't know what to do next and could only ask Du Chen.
"Let's go to the furniture store first and buy the chess and card table and sofa. Then we'll look for other furniture. Then we'll go to the computer and electrical appliance store and assemble two computers. We'll also see if there's a projector there!"
"What about the pool table?"
Ding Miaomiao asked Du Chen curiously.
"Let's move the pool table in after we finish everything else. It's so big and takes up so much space, it'll be hard to work if we move it in first. Then I can have my dad find a pallet truck to pull the pool table over. We can't move it ourselves."
As he spoke, Du Chen had already started the car and prepared to go to the furniture store first.
"Old Ding, what do you think?"
In the other office, Comrade Lao Du asked Lao Ding for his opinion.
