But I can't say it now.
As Shen Xiangzhi expected, after they left, the three elderly people in the living room with their children instantly became harmonious. They were only concerned with entertaining the children and no longer had the heart to quarrel.
Shen Xiangzhi stood in the yard and listened secretly for a while, then returned to the house with peace of mind.
They didn't know when Mr. Shen left, but when An Hongdou and Shen Xiangzhi woke up again, it was already late at night.
An Hongdou pushed the person next to her and said, "Hurry up and go see how the children are doing."
I originally just wanted to lie down in bed and take a nap, but I didn't expect that it would be midnight before I could take care of the children.
The two of them were sleeping soundly. It was really hard to let such an old man take care of three little ones who only knew how to eat, sleep and make trouble.
Chen Xiangzhi was also worried that the elderly could not cope with three children, so without saying anything extra, he got up and went to the living room to check.
However, as soon as I walked out of the room, I saw the expected darkness in the living room.
Shen Xiangzhi came to the room of the two old people. The door of the room was not closed tightly. He touched it lightly and it cracked.
The lights in the room were not completely turned off. The dim light from the bedside illuminated the sleeping faces of the two old people, which was extremely quiet and peaceful. In between the two old people, three little babies were lying on their backs.
Fortunately, the bed under the old man was big enough. It was the dowry given by Grandma Su when she got married. It had an ancient atmosphere when it looked at.
On the bedside cabinet were the children's milk powder, which looked like they had already been drunk.
Seeing that the children were asleep and not making any noise, Shen Xiangzhi quietly closed the door and went back to his room.
Seeing him coming back, An Hongdou quickly asked, "Where are the children?"
"They are all asleep. Don't worry, grandma and grandpa are watching them. They are more careful than us." Shen Xiangzhi yawned, lay on the bed and continued to sleep.
“Wow…”
When the child cried, An Hongdou opened her eyes immediately.
Looking at the man who was still sleeping like a dead pig beside her, she stretched out her hand and pushed him awake, "Hurry up and get up, it's already bright outside."
After saying that, An Hongdou quickly got up, dressed and tidied herself.
After opening the door, the scorching sun shines on my face, bringing warm warmth.
Looking at the sun hanging high in the branches, even though she was always thick-skinned, she couldn't help but blush at this moment.
It would be fine if the old man took care of the child all night, but it was really inappropriate for him to get up so late today.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Grandma Su say, "Hongdou, get up. Go wash your face and brush your teeth. I've left some rice in the pot for the two of you."
An Changyue was already skilled in coaxing the crying Dabao, while Erbao was giggling at his crying brother, and Sanbao looked calm and didn't even blink.
"Thank you, grandma. I'll go wash my face now. I'm sorry to have bothered you and grandpa to help take care of the children yesterday. They were so noisy, I'm sure they disturbed you, right?" Even she herself often couldn't sleep well because of taking care of the children, let alone the two elderly people.
Grandma Su smiled and said, "You are too polite, my child. The three little ones are so well behaved and not making any noise at all."
Shen Xiangzhi stood behind her and flattered her with a playful smile: "Of course not, don't you see who is leading them? You have to give face to your great-grandmother and great-grandfather!"
Grandma Su looked at him unhappily, "Alright, stop talking nonsense, go wash up and have dinner. I'll take Hongdou out for a walk later. We'll be living here from now on, so it's good for you to get familiar with the surrounding environment."
"Then I'll have to trouble you to help take care of the children." Shen Xiangzhi said with a smile, and went to fetch water.
"Then I would love to keep the three little guys by my side. If you are willing, your grandpa and I can help take care of them in the future." Grandma Su looked at Sanbao in her arms with a loving face and tried to make him laugh. However, Sanbao didn't give her any face and still looked serious.
It's just that those big, round eyes kept blinking and moving, which looked very pleasing to the eye.
After finishing the meal, Shen Xiangzhi took a bunch of keys from Grandma Su, pushed the family bicycle, and asked An Changyue to stay at home first, and then took An Hongdou out.
The house where Grandpa Su lives is not too far away, but it is not close either.
Grandpa Su's place is in the hutong area, which is full of old houses with a courtyard layout.
The house given to them should belong to the villa area, a small two-story building with a gate, a yard, and a small garden.
The first thing An Hongdou thought of was that the two old people really loved each other and understood each other. Looking at the house, one could tell it was not cheap.
After pushing the door open, I saw at a glance that the furniture inside was fully furnished and everything was cleaned thoroughly.
In addition to the living room, there are three rooms on the first floor. An Hongdou looked around and found a bedroom with a bathroom and toilet. What she liked most was that the bathroom in the bedroom was equipped with a flush toilet, which was an unexpected surprise.
Next to the bedroom is the baby room, which has three small beds lined up in it. None of them are high, but you can tell that they were made with great care.
There is also a bedroom that is actually a study, and the bookcases and tables inside are all empty. But then again, a place like a study should be left for them to add things to it themselves.
Just looking at the first floor was enough to surprise An Hongdou.
I couldn't wait to take the key and walked up the stairs to the second floor.
There are more rooms on the second floor, four or five in total. In addition to a baby room and a study, the other three are all bedrooms.
Each bedroom upstairs is equipped with a separate toilet and bathroom. An Hongdou really likes it here.
Now, she can't wait to move here.
However, after going downstairs, I regained my senses for a moment.
"Hey, have you known this place for a long time?" She asked suspiciously when she saw that he didn't seem to be worried at all.
“I used to come here often when I was a kid, but I don’t come here often when I grow up.” Shen Xiangzhi’s voice was filled with some sighs.
An Hongdou was very puzzled. "The house here is obviously better and more convenient than grandpa's house. Why aren't grandma and grandpa here?"
Shen Xiangzhi glanced at An Hongdou, and was forced to sigh in his heart.
"The Su family's old house used to be in the city center. It was a large courtyard with three entrances left by our ancestors. Since the Republic of China period, the Su family has made many contributions to the war of resistance against Japan. Later, when the situation became bad, almost all of the Su family's property was donated. Grandpa and his family only have these two places left. However, the old man is nostalgic and doesn't like the bright decoration here, so he chose to live in the courtyard over there."
If the Su family had not donated their property, even now, they would still be one of the most wealthy families in the whole Jiangcheng.
