Go back and ask the two elders. If that doesn't work, invite that guy A over to teach the children. We need to make sure they all have real skills before we feel safe letting them go out.
With these thoughts in mind, Zhang Hongmei returned to Gu Chuanming's study.
Zhang Xingguo and Zhang Hongmei were pointing at a map and discussing some issues when they saw Zhang Hongmei come in, and they were a little puzzled.
"Grandpa, Dad, that's the guy A who went to Y country last time. Could we have him teach the kids?"
Both of them looked at Zhang Hongmei in surprise. "How could you have such an idea?"
"Grandpa, is A the best fighter?"
"A has the highest overall quality."
"I would like to ask him to teach the children."
"Not yet, they are still too young. I will transfer Jia over when they are seven or eight years old."
"Okay, you can arrange it as you see fit. You guys go ahead with your work, I'm leaving."
After Zhang Hongmei left, the two elderly people looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Mr. Gu, you've frightened Hongmei."
"That's a fact, and we need to help her accept it sooner rather than later. Look, she's figured it out now."
"Sigh! Everyone sees our children born with a silver spoon in their mouths, but why doesn't anyone think about the hardships they have to endure?"
"Alright, we'll give the kids the best, the rest is up to them."
"Yes, I'm worrying too much. I'm being a bit premature."
The two continued their discussion. If they could pave the way for their children before they grew up, they would have far fewer worries later.
Zhang Hongmei returned to her study. Lu Jing brought her a cup of loquat tea, explaining that her voice was strained from talking non-stop for half the morning.
"Lu Jing, sit down. I want to hear your opinion on Shi Tou going with Er Lengzi."
"Madam, what are you worrying about? Shi Tou is an adult now. He has knowledge and thoughts. Even if Zhenye and the others grow up in the future, you still can't stop them from doing anything."
Zhang Hongmei rubbed her temples with both hands. "Yes, how can I control other people's lives?"
"Madam, you're worrying too much. Relax."
"Yeah, Er Lengzi and Su Chen are getting married tomorrow."
"Let Su Chen go and take care of them. You should feel much more at ease."
"Yeah, at least I feel a little more at ease. Oh well, I was just worrying unnecessarily."
Lu Jingxin said, "You're not worrying unnecessarily; you're just too concerned."
Zhang Hongmei leaned back in her chair, staring blankly at a dot. After a while, she picked up her pen. She figured she'd better hurry up and give the students some questions; daydreaming wouldn't help.
Meanwhile, Er Lengzi and Su Chen were sitting face to face in the corridors of the fourth and fifth courtyards.
“Su Chen, it will be very hard for you to marry me. But I am a selfish person. I originally thought I would never get married and not be a burden to others, but Hongmei will not agree, and the elders in my family will not agree.”
Since I'm going to get married, then I'll choose you.
"Yes, I know, and I'm willing. Don't worry, I won't be a stumbling block or a burden to you. I'll stay by your side and take care of you."
"Okay, I will do my best to give you a happy family."
"Okay, I believe you."
"Then let's get married tomorrow. I'm very sorry I can't give you a wedding."
"I don't care about these things."
The two exchanged a smile. If Zhang Hongmei saw this, she would definitely complain, "You two aren't looking for partners, you're going to become husband and wife. Why are you smiling so formally?"
"Oh, right, we're going to my great-grandmother's house tonight. She'll be so happy to hear I'm getting married."
Er Ya called Zhu Zi, and of course, Han Mei answered the phone.
"Sister-in-law, please tell my brother Zhu that Brother Er Lengzi is back. He's going to Grandma's tonight because he's getting married tomorrow."
"Okay, I understand. He can go over tonight. It's really inconvenient for me here, so I won't go."
"Hmm, it's fine with my aunt taking care of you. You're due in a month, right?"
"Yes, it'll be ready soon. Don't worry about me."
Er Ya knew that Zhu Zi and Er Leng Zi had a good relationship, and since Er Leng Zi was coming back to get married, she had to inform him.
Ping An wandered aimlessly around the house, clearly not wanting to come back. Luckily, Peng Fei was there.
Dad wants Pengfei to go and learn with him too, so I'll tell Hongmei today.
Pengfei is actually a very quiet kid; I don't know if he'll like martial arts. But it would be good for his health if he learned some, and I wouldn't have to worry about him when he goes out into the world.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Cheng Guangxu drove back by himself, taking his family of four directly to the old lady's house.
Zeng Zhongkang and Wang Ying arrived shortly after Cai Peilin and his wife.
The four younger children were overjoyed to hear that they were going to visit their ancestor. Although they were not familiar with Er Lengzi, Jingsong remembered him and happily rushed to Er Lengzi's side.
"Uncle, when did you get back?"
"I just got back today, and Jinsong has grown so much."
Liu Jingsong hurriedly waved to the five younger children behind him. "Come here, this is the uncle I mentioned. You five should call him uncle, right?"
Er Lengzi smiled as he looked at the five children, all of them robust young men.
"Uncle, are you the uncle who's in the border troops?"
"Yes, it's me. I even held you when you were born."
Before long, they were all playing together, laughing and joking.
Lu Jing came over and said, "You need to take a shower, or you won't have enough time later."
All six children ran off in a flash.
"Sister Jing."
"Okay. You need to take good care of Su Chen."
"I know. Don't worry, I'll treat her well."
Zhang Hongmei dialed Zhang Shouyi's number. "Er Lengzi is back, let's all go to the old lady's."
"Okay, I can't go today. I'll have dinner with Zhou Shixiong tonight."
"Okay. Don't come back too late."
"Okay, I understand."
Twenty minutes later, all six children were ready, and the family's three cars set off at the same time.
They all arrived around the same time, around 4:30.
It's a good thing the house is big enough, otherwise it really wouldn't be able to accommodate so many people, especially so many children.
Zeng Zhiyu is all grown up now and knows how to find companions, but how can seven friends stay in the house?
So the little guy started crying loudly. Having no other choice, Zeng Zhongkang picked him up and went to find his seven older brothers who had abandoned him.
Er Lengzi sat down next to the old lady and said, "Grandma, please don't scold me. Look, I'm back safe and sound, aren't I? Besides, please give me some face in front of my wife, okay?"
"You still know how to save face?"
"Please forgive me, I promise I'll be obedient from now on."
"Alright, you two hurry up and have the baby. If there aren't the conditions over there, come back and have the baby. I'll raise it, or Hongmei will raise it."
"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll definitely have the baby and send it back to be raised." Now the old lady will do whatever she says.
