Not only did he make a cake, the little kid also turned on the home stereo and played disco.
When Han Si and Han Bo came over, they saw how lively it was here and they couldn't help but feel envious.
Growing up, their home had never been so lively.
When Chen Rou and Han Guobin came back from outside, they saw this scene at home.
Little Laosi and his sister Yaoyao are dancing vigorously. Not only Little Laosi, but Yaoyao also dances very well. The two of them cooperate well and it really looks like the real thing.
"Where did you learn this?" Han Guobin answered the Weibo post.
"I didn't learn it anywhere. I just learned it from TV!" said the fourth child immediately.
"You've never been to a disco?" Chen Rou asked suspiciously.
"That's not the case!" Yaoyao also said hurriedly.
"No matter if it happened before or not, don't go to that kind of place in the future. It's full of smoke and dust, with a bunch of people shaking their heads and twisting their bodies. What a mess." Han Guobin taught.
A group of young people looked at each other and communicated with their eyes.
Chen Rou said to Sanhu, "Sanhu, you sleep with Xiao Lao Si tonight."
"Of course, we have already agreed on that." Sanhu grinned.
"Second sister-in-law, I'm still sleeping here with Chengzi tonight." Yaoyao also smiled.
"Okay, you decide for yourselves." Chen Rou sat down, and Yaoyao smiled and went to the kitchen to make two cups of honey water for her second uncle and second aunt.
"Where does the honey come from?" Chen Rou asked.
"I brought this here specially. My aunt gave it to my mother. My mother said she doesn't like sweet drinks, so I said I would give it to you, my second aunt. So I brought this whole jar here for you. Try it." Yaoyao said with a smile.
"It's really delicious. I just had a glass." Han Cheng said.
Chen Rou and Han Guobin tried it. Han Guobin didn't like sweet drinks either and said, "It's too sweet."
"Just right, it's very nourishing to drink in winter." Chen Rou said, "Why didn't you keep it for yourself?"
"I don't have anything good to offer to you and my second uncle, so I'll just borrow the jujube honey from my aunt's house to offer to the Buddha." Yaoyao said with a smile.
Chen Rou smiled and said to Han Si and Han Bo, "Do you want to stay at home for dinner?"
"No need to stay, just go home and eat." Han Si said with a smile.
The two brothers thought it was about time, so they left home. On the way home, Han Bo said to his brother, "Second Lady just invited us to have dinner. Why didn't you stay for dinner, big brother?"
"There's no one at home." Han Si shook his head.
Han Bo curled his lips, but didn't say anything.
At night, the two brothers came to keep watch for their grandma. Mother Han was very happy: "You are really filial."
"Grandma, what are you talking about? Didn't my brother Hang come over last night?" Han Si said.
"Hanghang is grown up now, and he starts to teach me a lesson, saying that I am too old and have too many things to do, and that your mother is too troublesome!" Han's mother snorted.
"Grandma, please stop trying to stir up trouble. Brother Hang and I grew up together. I know what kind of person he is. But I don't believe what you say." Han Si glanced at his grandma.
"It's just like your second uncle who has forgotten his roots and has no conscience. He doesn't care about his elderly parents anymore after he became rich. He comes to see me every day when I'm in the hospital. Does that count as filial piety?" Han's mother snorted.
"This doesn't count as filial piety. How can I care for you?" Han Si said, "Besides, it was you and my mom who were meddling in the first place. The past is the past. We should learn from our mistakes. You are still rushing forward when you see others. Don't you realize how old you are?"
"What does grandma know? It's just mom who is looking for trouble. Grandma has never even seen a human being." Han Bo said.
"How can you say that about your mother? That woman wanted to destroy your family and even brought a stepson with her to take over your property!" said Han's mother.
"If my family was fine, how could that woman destroy it? I don't want to talk about the past. If my Second Mother hadn't cooked for me and my eldest brother during that time, my eldest brother and I would have to go to school hungry. But the past is the past. You're still trying to get involved now that you've seen her. Are you happy that she's made such a fuss? Why wasn't I born in my Second Mother's family? It's annoying!" Han Bo said as he covered his head with the quilt.
Mother Han was sad: "Xiaobo, how can you say that about your mother?"
"I'm not telling the truth, grandma, go ask my brother yourself." Han Bo said impatiently.
"You're almost there." Han Si said to his brother, but also to his grandmother: "Grandma, don't think about stirring up trouble. My second uncle and my second empress's family would have been rated as a county-level five-good family in the past. No one listens to what you say, so just take a good rest."
Han's mother lay there feeling aggrieved, and soon fell asleep.
"Grandma is becoming more and more unreasonable. She even says such things to us. She won't be happy until we go over and make trouble with Brother Hang and the others. Is there anyone like her? It's no wonder that even a good person like Second Empress doesn't come to see her." Han Bo said.
"Go to bed quickly." Han Si dismissed him.
The two brothers were keeping watch here, while Chen Rou and Han Guobin were playing mahjong at Old Chen's house. As for the children, they were having fun at home.
You can still hear the disco music from the neighboring house.
"These brats." Han Guobin dealt the cards and snorted.
"This is what young people are like, energetic young people." Ma Yuling drew the cards and played them, smiling.
"I see that Xiaobing can dance too. Did he learn it from TV?" Chen Rou said as she put in the cards and played out the cards.
"What do you mean he learned it from TV? I saw him, the second and fourth brothers, Chengzi, Yaoyao and a group of others going into a disco the day before yesterday." Ma Yuling said.
"I said they must have gone." Han Guobin said.
"I don't know what's so good about that crappy place. A bunch of people go in there and shake their heads, and that's called fashion, that's called a trend," said Chen Gongan.
"Don't meddle in young people's affairs." Ma Yuling said indifferently.
"That place is in great chaos, how can we just leave it alone?" said Chen Gongan.
"How can it be that chaotic? Isn't that the place where Xiao Lao Si's godfather cooperates with others? Everyone working there knows them." Ma Yuling said, "Don't worry about it. Young people should act like young people. Besides, you can only have fun at your age now. In a few years, you won't be able to have fun even if you want to."
"That's what you say, but you still have to warn them, otherwise there will be a big uproar." Chen Rou played her cards.
"It's not like we can turn the tables. We don't know what kind of children we have, but we know it in our hearts. There's nothing wrong in giving them some freedom," said Ma Yuling.
After talking about the children, Ma Yuling told Chen Rou about her mother-in-law: "You know, the old lady went to the Public Security Bureau and made a scene there. She wanted to come and live with us!"
"Tsk, just play cards, why are you talking about these things?" said Chen Gongan.
Chen Rou just smiled and Han Guobin played his cards.
"It's not someone else, why can't you say it?" Ma Yuling snorted, ignored him, and continued: "You are really shameless. I used to give her 100 yuan a year, and now it has increased to 300 yuan a year. What's going on? Are you trying to get ahead of yourself? She even wants to live here, so that she can live with her precious daughters. I'm telling you clearly, no matter how old she is, she can't live here! "
"Okay, okay, it's your turn, hurry up." said Chen Gongan.
Playing mahjong at night, Ma Yuling came to tell Chen Rou the next day: "When my belly was so big, the mother and daughter pushed me to the ground, slapped me, and pulled my hair. Don't think that I can forget it after so many years. I've made it clear that I will never get over this hurdle in my life!"
"Don't put yourself in a difficult position. Just do whatever makes you comfortable." Chen Rou nodded.
"I will definitely not let myself be wronged, but what about you? Your mother-in-law is not a peaceful person either." Ma Yuling said.
"So the old couple won't come to live with me. I didn't even go to see them during this hospitalization." Chen Rou said with a smile.
"At this age, even if he recovers, he will definitely have troubles. Will the woman in their third room agree to support him like this?" Ma Yuling looked at Han Guobin and saw that he was not there, so she whispered, "She has already taken advantage of you before. If she really makes a fuss, people will also blame you. Guobin has such a big business now, and his reputation is important. Just like Lao Chen, his mother went to him, and there are people in his unit who want to use this to slander him and force him to stop working."
"Guobin plans to hire a nanny this year," said Chen Rou.
"It's a good idea to hire a nanny. Just think of it as spending money to buy some peace and quiet." Ma Yuling nodded when she heard it.
"Yes, I spend money to buy some peace and quiet." Chen Rou said, "Although that old lady didn't dare to fight with me like the old lady in your family, she has never done me any good deeds over the years. When I gave birth to these children, it was my mother who came to take care of me during the confinement period, and she acted as if she didn't know anything. She took good care of my third brother's wife, and she was always scheming to sell things from my family to the third room. No matter how much Guobin gave her as a gift, she would say that she was unfilial and had no conscience, and that she had forgotten her roots after becoming rich. I told her that we were mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but in fact, our relationship was worse than strangers."
"That's really outrageous!" Ma Yuling curled her lips. "She's just like Lao Chen's mother. I took the remittance slip to the Public Security Bureau to clear Lao Chen's name!"
"You are amazing. We are in the same city but you still use remittance slips." Chen Rou laughed.
"I know her. The money has always been remitted. She wants cash? No way. Otherwise, there will be no evidence in the future. See, I guessed it. She can really go to the Public Security Bureau to threaten her and want to come into my house!" Ma Yuling snorted coldly.
"Take it easy, otherwise you'll age quickly." Chen Rou said with a smile.
"That's right. We are living such a good life now, why should we care so much about those who are about to enter the coffin? Don't skimp on the pension you deserve, and don't expect too much for anything else. I won't take care of you. If Old Chen wants to go, go by yourself. That old thing, I sent a soldier over last time, and the soldier took the old lady's 1-cent New Year's money!" Ma Yuling said.
"The eldest and the second oldest were also sent by their father to keep watch on New Year's Day. He was too lazy to go and didn't want to go, so he sent his two sons instead. The brothers have never eaten a single candy from that old lady since they were young!" said Chen Rou.
"Old Chen doesn't want to go either. These men are stupid. If they don't want to go, they just ask their sons to go. But if I treated my son and grandson like that, I wouldn't have the face to let them serve me!" said Ma Yuling.
"I might be planning to visit Beijing this year. Do you want to go with me?" Chen Rou asked.
"Why do you want to go to Beijing for no reason? To see Hanghang?" Ma Yuling asked.
"Let's go somewhere and have a look. Haven't you always said that you wanted to travel? Let's go together then?" Chen Rou said with a smile.
"Okay, with Hanghang here, we don't have to worry about getting lost. Whenever you want to go, just call me and let Lao Chen go to the cafeteria to eat." Ma Yuling said.
Chen Rou hadn't told the eldest brother yet. After he came back from his classmate's house, Chen Rou told him.
Han Hang was stunned for a moment: "Mom, the courtyard houses in Beijing are so expensive, can our family afford it?"
"It should be possible. Go over there and look for me. If you meet the right one, call me." Chen Rou said.
"Mom, when did our family become so rich?" Han Hang immediately laughed.
"Our family has always been rich, big brother, don't you know that?" Han Zhou came in from outside. The young man took off his plaid scarf and hung it up, then took off his coat and came in.
"I didn't realize our family is rich." Han Hang looked around the house and said.
"The sofa under your butt is new. It sold for 2,800 yuan at the furniture store. The grand matching chairs are made of mahogany. The dining table, the bed and the desk in our room are all made of precious wood. There are other large items as well. We have everything. Don't you know whether my family is rich or not?" Han Zhou raised his eyebrows.
Han Hang then began to look at these things in the house carefully. It was the first time he realized that his family seemed to be really rich?
"Mom, please buy us a car so it will be convenient for traveling." Han Zhou said with a smile.
"Why buy a car? Your father has so many trucks and tractors. You don't need a car often. You can just drive a truck when you need it. You bought it to relieve dust." Chen Rou said.
"That's why you call me brother and you think our family has no money. Our parents are too low-key. Even now, our house has not been demolished and rebuilt into a multi-story building. It is not very expensive. If we do it at the best price, it will only cost about 70,000 or 80,000 yuan." Han Zhou said.
"Don't be so arrogant, it's only 70,000 or 80,000 yuan." Han Hang cursed with a smile and said to his mother, "Mom, my classmate lives in a courtyard house, which was also newly bought. I heard her say it cost hundreds of thousands of yuan."
"If there is a suitable one, you can buy one." Chen Rou mixed a cup of honey for herself and said calmly.
"Mom, you want to buy a courtyard house. Does my dad know?" Han Zhou said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter whether your father knows about it or not. I have the final say on the family's money." Chen Rou said confidently.
"Brother, remember to go out and take a look, and pick the best one. I saw it when I was watching Dream of the Red Chamber on TV. There are big courtyards with three, four, or five entrances. You can buy that one." Han Zhou said.
Han Hang stretched out his hand: "Give me the money. My classmate's house is a two-story building, and it costs hundreds of thousands!"
"Your classmate's family must be quite wealthy, living in a courtyard house worth hundreds of thousands of yuan." Han Zhou said.
"She is quite rich, but she is a nice person. The last time Lao Si Chengzi and her friends came over, she was the one who lent me the car." Han Hang nodded.
Chen Rou and Han Zhou automatically regarded the "she" mentioned by the eldest brother as "he", so they did not ask any more questions. After all, it was Beijing, and it was normal to have many rich people there.
