He was thinking of using this as an excuse to go visit his daughter next time, but it seems the people below are not efficient enough!
The old lady looked at him curiously. Her oldest son never showed his emotions, but today he was obviously happy. Could it be that the call just now was from his little granddaughter? No way, the voice he just heard was clearly not a girl's.
Nowadays, telephones have serious sound leakage. Even with the old lady's old ears, she can hear the voices talking on the other end, but she can't hear them clearly.
"Who is it? Is it Ye Zi calling?" She hoped her eldest son would say no, otherwise she would have to give him a good beating. She really wanted to talk to her granddaughter.
If the eldest son had not said that his granddaughter could not accept them, the old couple would have found an excuse to go and see their granddaughter. I heard that she looks very much like the eldest son, so their granddaughter must be a beautiful girl.
"No, it was Xiao Si who called."
The old lady lost interest all of a sudden. In the past, Xiao Si was the youngest and the most handsome, and was the apple of her eye. But now that she already has a little granddaughter, who would still like a bad boy?
"Why are you calling? Are you out of money again?" Old man Cen replied with a smile. This brat is the sweetest when asking for money.
"No, Xiao Si told me that Ye Zi went to look at the job today and it's confirmed. She'll be there to hand it over at the end of the month."
"She asked me if I could help Ye Zi find a place to live. She said the rental environment there is not good, and she is worried about letting Ye Zi live alone."
The old lady suddenly became excited again: "Really? My granddaughter really agreed to the job you found her? Does that mean she plans to adopt you as her own?"
The last sentence the old lady said was about how disappointed she was with her son. Wasn't he the pride of the children in the compound? Yet he couldn't even handle such a small matter, preventing her from even seeing her sweet granddaughter.
Cen Boxu choked and said, "You are really my real mother. You stab me wherever it hurts!"
"Well, I'm leaving first. I have to find a suitable place for Ye Zi to live. The child is used to living alone and is not used to living with others."
The old man rolled his eyes and said, "Tell me what kind of job you found for Ye Zi? It would be great to let Ye Zi come back here to work. Your mother and I can still take care of Ye Zi at home." It's not easy for them to make the trip all the way here.
Cen Boxu... Could it be that he didn't want his daughter to come back? He couldn't do that.
"Ye Zi has gotten used to life there, and besides, Xiao Si is still there to take care of her. I think it's fine if I don't come back for a short time."
This sentence was meaningful, and everyone in the room understood it. Yes, things are still in chaos, and they don't want their granddaughter (niece) to be involved. It's better to live a more comfortable life over there.
Boss Cen also came to his younger brother's rescue: "Old Three is right. If Ye Zi comes back in the current environment, she might have to go to the countryside. It would be better for her to live there more comfortably."
Don't think that you don't have to go to the countryside just because you are an only child. If your niece comes back and is targeted by the rival family, she will have no choice but to go to the countryside. My niece grew up in the countryside, so why should we let her continue to suffer? It's better not to move for the time being.
Cen Lao Er also nodded. "Big brother and little brother are right. We won't feel anything until we go to the local area. It's still safer there. Anyway, Xiao Si is there and will definitely take good care of Ye Zi. It's better to let the two children stay there for the time being."
The old man felt uncomfortable. She was the only girl in three generations of their family. Not to mention growing up in luxury, she shouldn't have to suffer so many hardships when she grew up. Just thinking about it made him feel extremely distressed.
No, I will go to my old friend later to exchange some more overseas remittance coupons so that I can buy some good things for my granddaughter.
"Okay," he also knew that his son was right. He was just too worried about his granddaughter.
Seeing the regretful expressions on his old father and mother's faces, Cen Boxu couldn't bear it, so he added, "Don't worry, Ye Zi is growing up well. Our Xiao Si is no match for Ye Zi. That child is capable of protecting himself."
I've heard this from my eldest son before, but they didn't quite believe it. It's not because of gender discrimination or anything, but mainly because girls are naturally stronger than boys. It's possible that the fourth son was deliberately giving in to his younger sister.
Seeing the serious expression on his eldest son's face, he knew that what he said was true: "Really? You saw it?"
Cen Boxu nodded. He really saw it. Cen Zixiang wanted to let the girl show her strength and let his uncle see how outstanding his own daughter was, so he deliberately competed with Ye Zi in front of his uncle.
When Cen Boxu thought of the scene at that time, he couldn't help but smile. Everyone in the room was amazed. Does this guy also have a problem controlling his facial expressions?
Cen Boxu was not the only one who was happy. After he explained the situation at that time, everyone in the room laughed. It was right. Xiao Si felt that he was so good at slacking that he was almost invincible among his peers. Now someone had to teach him a lesson.
Cen Lao Er chuckled, not feeling the slightest bit embarrassed about his son getting beaten up. "It's called a sparring match, but this has become a one-sided fight between Xiao Ye and Xiao Ye."
Second Aunt also laughed out loud: "It's right, this kid should have someone to suppress him like this, otherwise he will go to heaven."
My second aunt is a very cheerful person, with a loud voice and a natural laugh. She has never been shy like a little woman and says whatever she wants to say. She laughed so hard at her own son, and she looks so different from that pretty face.
As she laughed, the second aunt clapped her hands and said, "Oh, by the way, I actually have a good sister working there. Wait, I'll call and ask about the house now. We have to find a place for our little Ye Zi to live."
The eldest aunt said, "Is that the good sister you mentioned whom you haven't seen for many years?" When her sister-in-law said this, she also remembered that there was such a person. Her second sister-in-law would mention her from time to time, and she remembered them all.
"Yes, she is my good sister who I grew up with. After we got married, we moved to different places, so it's hard for us to see each other, but we have been writing letters all the time."
"I remember you said that your sister seemed to work in the Housing Management Office?" Was she right?
"Yes, she's a small leader. She's the perfect person to talk to about this matter. I'll call her now."
"Don't be in a hurry to leave, third brother. If everything is OK here, you don't have to look for anyone else. By the way, have you arranged someone to take care of your niece over there?" No matter how capable the child is, in the eyes of adults like them, he is still a baby who needs care.
"Well, Qi Zhenguo is the director of the Third Food Factory over there, and Ye Zi went to work there." The job his daughter chose was within his expectations. The child didn't like to interact with others.
Don’t be afraid of earning little, he is here and he will make his daughter the happiest girl.
