Su Xieqiu opened the door angrily, and Han Zhenyu followed her silently, carrying two large bags.
At this time, the two little guys in the yard were fighting each other and had no idea that their parents had returned.
They twisted into a ball, neither of them giving in, and still cursing at each other.
Han Zhenyu looked at this scene and his face darkened.
At this time, Grandpa Du came from the backyard holding Tiantian. Seeing the two little brothers fighting, he was about to speak to stop them when he suddenly saw Han Zhenyu and Su Xieqiu standing at the door.
"Zhenyu, Zhenyu's wife, you are back?"
As soon as Grandpa Du finished speaking, the two brothers quickly let go of each other.
The two wanted to run over happily to greet them, but when they saw their parents' faces, they were so scared that they stopped where they were, not daring to move.
Tiantian struggled to climb down from Grandpa Du, looked at her father and mother, and burst into tears with her mouth wide open.
Su Xieqiu was so distressed to see her daughter crying so sadly that she did not even bother to deal with the two little brothers and quickly picked her up and coaxed her.
She smiled and said to Grandpa Du: "Grandpa, we have been away for so long. You and grandma have worked hard these days."
"It's not hard. The children are very obedient."
Grandpa Du said, thinking of the two brothers who had just fought, and asked them, "I just took Tiantian to the toilet, why did you two start fighting?"
Seeing that someone was paying attention to them, Xuanxuan quickly complained, "Grandpa, my brother called me a pig."
Haohao secretly glanced at his parents and pouted his lips to complain, "You were the first one to say I was born of a dog, so I scolded you."
Grandpa Du: “…”
He thought to himself, you two brats, how come you are so good at scolding?
Han Zhenyu placed the two big bags he brought back in the main room, picked up the feather duster on the table, and walked towards the twins.
Seeing that things were going badly, Haohao and Xuanxuan quickly hid behind Grandpa Du and begged for mercy with tears, "Dad, please spare us. We will never dare to do it again."
Because Han Zhenyu was not often at home, he rarely scolded them, let alone beat them.
I didn't expect that they would use a feather duster this time. It seems that they must be very angry with the two brothers.
The twins were very scared and hid behind their great-grandfather and didn't dare to come out.
Grandpa Du wanted to persuade him, but then Su Xieqiu shouted in the main hall with a smile: "Grandpa, Yiming also brought a radio for you and grandma, come and take a look."
Grandpa Du understood that his nephew and grandson's wife were going to teach these two little brothers a lesson today.
He looked back at the twins, and saw them tugging at his clothes pitifully. He smiled, patted their heads, and went into the main room.
It's not easy for him to manage this matter. The brat cursed the other person and called him the son of a pig and a dog in front of his parents. Don't you think he is asking for a beating?
As expected, Haohao and Xuanxuan had a meal of fried bamboo shoots with meat.
Xuanxuan cried and said, "Daddy, daddy, be gentle, our butts are going to break..."
Although they were wearing cotton trousers, Han Zhenyu was very heavy-handed and one could hear the sound of the feather duster hitting their clothes.
The two brothers covered their buttocks and ran around the yard howling, begging for mercy.
Tiantian saw her father beating her brother and was so scared that she threw herself into Su Xieqiu’s arms.
She stared at him for a while, then suddenly ran out and hugged Han Zhenyu's legs, saying in a baby voice, "Dad, don't hit my brother, it hurts."
Han Zhenyu glanced at the twins with a sullen face and saw that they were crying and looking pitiful.
He snorted coldly, "If I hear you two quarreling again, I'll beat your butts."
Haohao sobbed and said, "Dad, I really won't dare to do it again."
Han Zhenyu picked up Tiantian and said to the two brothers, "Go kneel in the main room. When your mother calms down, you can get up."
The two brothers didn't dare to object. They ran to the main room, called "Mom" softly, and then knelt down obediently in the corner.
Su Xieqiu ignored them.
She asked Grandpa Du, "Grandpa, where are my grandma and An An? Why can't I see them? Where did they go?"
Grandpa Du put down the radio and said with a smile, "Dashu's wife gave birth two days ago. Your grandma didn't know when you would be back. So she went with An'an to deliver some millet and eggs. They went after lunch and should be back soon."
Su Xieqiu said, "She gave birth so soon? Then let's go check it out tonight."
"It's better to go. Some time ago, your uncle and your younger uncle came to chop firewood for you. Dashu, his father, and the Lei brothers all came to help. They helped chop wood for three days."
Su Xieqiu said gratefully: "Oh, thank you so much. And my uncle and my eldest uncle come to help us prepare firewood every year, which really saves us a lot of worry."
"These are their concerns." Grandpa Du smiled and waved his hand, then took Han Zhenyu to the backyard to take a look.
The woodshed was full, with neatly stacked bundles of firewood, enough for them to burn until next winter.
Han Zhenyu was surprised and asked, "Grandpa, why did you cut so much? I also prepared several thousand kilograms of coal tickets and planned to bring them back in two days."
"Why buy coal? The firewood is enough. Why spend that money?"
Grandpa Du felt that the man did not know how to live. There was so much firewood on the mountain, just chopping some would be enough for the whole winter. Why did he buy coal? It was a waste of money.
Han Zhenyu smiled and said, "Grandpa, I'll buy less so I can use it to burn in the stove when it snows."
He did not refute his grandfather's words, although their family was better off now.
But my grandma and grandpa have suffered and saved all their lives. Even if they have money, they are reluctant to spend it.
In the past two years, he gave money to his grandparents, but they refused to accept it, saying that they had too many children and the burden was too heavy.
Let them save the money to help their sons find wives and to use it as dowry for their daughters.
I've really been worrying about what's going to happen in the next few decades.
