The daily necessities left behind can come in handy.
As for Goudan, let him stay at home and don't go out on weekdays; no one asks him to cook, he just needs to clean and keep the house clean.
When they returned to Hongxing Village, it was already past one in the afternoon and they had missed lunch time. Fortunately, Wang Daya had left some food for them, including a portion for lunch.
The couple washed their hands and sat at the table to eat. Yan Guofeng walked over slowly and sat down at the top seat.
"They left?"
"Grandpa, Mom and Dad have already left. We sent them to the car before coming back. Xiaohai has also left. We were supposed to come back together, but we went back to the compound to rest for a while when we received a call asking Xiaohai to come back." Zhong Yuxiu said.
Yan Guofeng's expression darkened slightly, but it disappeared in an instant. "It's better to go back. It's too noisy with the three of them at home."
Zhong Yuxiu smiled helplessly, "Grandpa, if you miss Mom and Dad, we can go see them! We have a car, it's very convenient. I'll get a driver's license when I have time. Rushan and I will take turns driving. We don't even need to buy tickets, we can go directly."
"You're such a mischievous girl." Yan Guofeng nodded at her a few times, then leaned back in his chair with a smile. The furniture in the courtyard was all high-quality goods, and there were only a few stools and chairs at the dining table. "Why do you need to drive? Are your two guards just for show? Comrade Gu and Comrade Fang can drive, too."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded. "They are the ones who can drive. I can't live my whole life without ever learning to drive."
"That's right. If you want to learn, then learn. If you really can't, let Comrade Gu and the others teach you. We have a ready-made car at home. Once you learn, you can go directly to the certification exam and save time."
"Grandpa is right. It would be great if I could just take the exam after I learn it." Zhong Yuxiu smiled and decided to do just that.
Gu Lingguo came out of the kitchen to serve them food and overheard everything. "Comrade Zhong wants to learn, so we will definitely teach him seriously. With Comrade Zhong's intelligence, he will be able to learn in a few days. Learning to drive is not difficult, but proficiency is difficult."
"That's absolutely true," Yan Guofeng agreed. "To drive a car, you only need to know how to operate a few parts. To truly drive well and pass the test, you still need proficiency."
Zhong Yuxiu said she understood. "Then let's start tomorrow? Every evening after get off work, we'll study for an hour, then eat. After a month, we should be able to take the exam."
"Sure, I can teach you too." When it comes to vying for favor, Yan Rushan is self-taught.
Gu Lingguo smiled and said nothing. He walked away silently and brought all their dishes over.
After lunch, the couple breathed a sigh of relief. Man is iron and rice is steel, and he will be very hungry if he doesn’t eat for a meal; this is the state they are in now. After eating and drinking enough, they feel alive again.
"You two are stupid. Can't you come back after eating outside? You come back to eat even when you are hungry." Yan Guofeng looked at his eldest grandson and his wife with amusement.
Yan Rushan said, "Come back early so you don't worry."
"You guys go out every day, what do I, an old man, have to worry about?" Yan Guofeng's tone was full of indifference, but his eyes did not mean that.
Zhong Yuxiu chuckled and pulled Yan Rushan, "Grandpa, we are stupid. Next time we won't come back to eat. Let's eat outside."
"What good food is there outside that's as good as what the chef at home makes?"
Yan Rushan and Zhong Yuxiu smiled at each other. Yan Guofeng smiled awkwardly and changed his tone, "I can't argue with you two. Why don't you go see the child after dinner? I haven't seen him for a long time."
"They should be asleep by now, right? Then let's not watch it. There's nothing to see." Yan Rushan let go, but Zhong Yuxiu couldn't let go. "Look, look, just take a look. Grandpa, are they in your room or the room where they sleep?"
When they arrived at Hongxing Village, there were many houses, so they arranged a separate room for the three children; it was located next to the residence of Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi, so that they could be taken care of more conveniently.
It is completely fine for little ones of seven or eight months old to sleep alone; Wang Daya and others need to wake them up regularly every night to prevent them from wetting the bed.
"In their house." After Yan Guofeng finished speaking, Zhong Yuxiu smiled and pulled Yan Rushan to the second courtyard.
Yan Guofeng had a separate courtyard here, Zhong Yuxiu and Yan Rushan lived in a small courtyard; Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi lived in the house at the entrance of the second courtyard. As for Gu Lingguo and Fang Guozhong, they chose the room closest to the courtyard where Zhong Yuxiu lived.
Two grown men don't have so many requirements. It's convenient to live together, so they don't live separately.
Zhong Yuxiu and Yan Rushan walked into the place where the children were temporarily staying and pushed the door open. After entering, they found that the air was a bit stuffy and not as fresh as the air outside.
"Comrade Wang, didn't they open the window for the children?" As she said this, she walked to the window on the left and opened the wooden window.
The courtyard can be said to be decorated in its original style, with some of Zhong Yuxiu's ideas added to make it more refined; the wooden windows are still wooden windows, and not many changes have been made.
"It's probably because the weather is cold and they're worried that the child will catch a cold." Yan Rushan didn't take it to heart.
Zhong Yuxiu nodded, not wanting to pursue the matter. "We need to tell them to come over and open the windows for them for half an hour every now and then to let some fresh air in. There's not one, but three sleeping here, and the polluted air they breathe is multiplied exponentially."
Yan Rushan didn't say anything, which was considered as his agreement.
Walking to the bed, I saw three little guys sleeping side by side. Their round little faces were flushed and looked rosy. Their red little mouths were slightly open and occasionally moved slightly, which made them look extremely cute.
"Our three sons are so good." Looking at her sons, her mother's heart was touched. She reached out and touched their little faces. Their cheeks were so tender and smooth, not much worse than the best tofu. "The children are getting more and more handsome, and their little faces are slowly opening up."
Yan Rushan took a look and said, "It doesn't look like you."
"I know someone like you, why don't you treat them better?" Zhong Yuxiu said lightly, but Yan Rushan didn't take it to heart and pulled her to sit on the bed. Zhong Yuxiu looked at her son, and Yan Rushan looked at his wife.
His wife has grown up in recent years. She is confident, independent and self-reliant outside, and exudes the charm of a new woman. At home, she is a wife, a mother and a granddaughter-in-law, each different in her own way. She is more easy-going at home, and home is what it is with her.
I like this family and I like her. Even looking at her like this, I feel happy.
"Wife, please love the children less." He put his arms around her, holding her in his arms, leaned over and whispered softly in her ear, "Love me more."
Zhong Yuxiu's ears flushed at the sudden words, and she pinched the back of his hand. Not only did she not let him withdraw his hand, she hugged him even tighter. "My sons will fly away when they grow up, but I will never fly out of your sight. So, love me a little more and love them a little less, okay?"
"What are you talking about?"
Yan Rushan was acting like a spoiled child, rocking her gently in his arms. "I'm not saying that, but that's what I really think. Their existence has reduced our chances to spend time together. You don't have much time to begin with, and they're sharing that little time with me."
"I was always by your side at night, and you were still arguing with your sons. They are the continuation of our bloodline and the fruit of our common possession."
