Yan Guofeng glanced at them speechlessly, "It's only been a short time, and they haven't grown up yet, and you still want to eat."
"No bullfrog?"
The two old men were quite disappointed.
Yan Guofeng retorted, "It's good to have seafood. When we were crossing the snowy mountains before, we didn't even have grass roots to eat. So, now that conditions have improved, you're becoming picky about food?"
have to.
He was the one who made the remarks, and he was also the one who looked down on them.
Old Master Wu chuckled and said to Yan Rushan, "Come on, just serve a few dishes, or your grandfather will get angry."
"Dashan! Your grandfather can't do this. How can we dare to order food in the future? Don't you think so?" Old Master Cheng took a roundabout approach.
Yan Rushan glanced at Grandpa, then at the two old men. "If you two grandpas want to eat, it's easy. Just ask the nanny to go to the vegetable market and the meat market to have a look. If there's something, just buy it back. If not, there's nothing we can do."
"Okay, let's do it." Old Master Cheng responded quickly, as if he was afraid that Yan Guofeng would argue with him again.
Yan Guofeng had no objection to this, but instead set his sights on his granddaughter-in-law, "Yuxiu, tell Dashan what you want to eat. We'll cook more dishes tonight. Later, invite your Grandpa Qiu, Grandma Luo and the others over, and we'll have a meal together."
"Okay." Yuxiu nodded and exchanged a glance with Yan Rushan. "How about having Rushan invite Grandpa Qiu and Grandma Luo? I'll ask Feng Zheng to cook some more dishes. What do Grandpa Qiu and Grandma Luo like to eat?"
"As long as there's meat, it's fine. We old guys have been through wind and rain, and during the war we were hungry one day and full the next. It's good enough to have something to eat. Tell Feng Zheng to make a few more meat dishes." Yan Guofeng spoke, Yuxiu nodded in response, and she and Yan Rushan smiled at each other; she turned and went to the kitchen, while Yan Rushan went out to Qiu's house.
There were only three old men and three children left in the hall. Old Man Wu and Old Man Cheng went to the crib and picked up a child each. The three children became easier to distinguish as they grew older. Although they were all chubby, Li Ji's eyebrows and eyes looked very much like his mother, Zhong Yuxiu; Li Zhen inherited the best qualities of his parents and had the best appearance among the three children; Li Ming looked more like Yan Rushan, and only his eyes were very similar to Zhong Yuxiu's.
"ah?"
After suddenly changing places, Li Ji and Li Ming turned their heads to look at the people holding them; their eyes were full of confusion, as if they were trying to figure out whether the two old men were people they knew.
Yan Guofeng picked up Li Zhen and held him in his arms. The chubby great-grandson looked so cute no matter how he looked at him.
"Old Yan, who is the oldest among your three great-grandchildren?" asked Old Master Wu.
Old Master Cheng also turned his head and asked silently.
Yan Guofeng raised his hand and patted the second child on the back, saying, "Old Wu, you are holding the eldest child, and Old Cheng is holding the youngest child."
"This one looks like Comrade Zhong, so I'm the eldest. I thought it was the youngest." Old Master Wu smiled and shook his head. He bent down and pinched the baby's chubby face. The smooth touch was so adorable that he couldn't let go. "It's so cute. Your family must have raised it well! How can it be so chubby? It feels so heavy in my hands. It really feels good."
"The Li Ming in my arms is not light either, it's heavy in my hand."
Yan Guofeng is very proud of this, "That's because my great-grandchildren have never been sick since they were born."
"They are almost one year old, right?" asked Mr. Cheng.
"A few months left. They were born in the winter month."
Old Master Wu exclaimed, "He's not even a year old yet, but he looks taller than other one-year-olds, right?"
"Almost. I've measured them." Yan Guofeng shook his head. "But their good health is more important than anything else. It's all thanks to our granddaughter-in-law's good health and her ability to bear children. Otherwise, how could the children be so healthy?"
Starting to show off again.
Old Master Wu and Old Master Cheng looked at each other, shook their heads silently, and looked at each other in silence; then, they each lowered their heads to look at the children in their arms. How could Old Master Yan's old face be as pretty as the little baby's?
After blowing for a while, no one responded. He turned his head and saw that neither of them paid attention to his thoughts. Instead, they hugged the children and coaxed them. His great-grandchildren were very well-behaved today and did not show any shyness when being held. Old Man Yan was really puzzled.
After careful consideration of the reasons, in the end, it can only be attributed to the fact that they are both old men; the eldest great-grandson and the youngest great-grandson may have recognized the wrong person.
"Old Wu, Old Cheng, why don't you put the child down? You're old, and your figures aren't as good as mine. You'll get tired if you hold the child for too long."
Old Master Cheng sneered, "Only you are in good health. We are also drinking repair fluid, and our health is no worse than yours."
"That's right, look how proud you are." Old Master Wu nodded in agreement, but he felt jealous in his heart; his sons and daughters-in-law all had jobs and were away from home all year round, not to mention his grandchildren and granddaughters-in-law. The great-grandchildren followed their parents and only returned to the compound during the New Year and other holidays.
In the eyes of outsiders, these retired cadres receive high salaries, enjoy a comfortable life every day, and their lives are so wonderful.
Who knows, they also want to have children and grandchildren around them.
Unfortunately, it is hard to have the best of both worlds!
Yan Guofeng didn't care about their attitude. They were lifelong comrades, so who didn't know each other? If they were polite, it would be too distant. It was precisely because they were so familiar with each other that they could talk and joke freely.
"The repair fluid you're drinking now isn't the same as the one I'm drinking. Let's pause."
Elder Cheng and Elder Wu frowned, their expression completely gone. "What do you mean?"
"Literally. If you believe me, I'll stop. I couldn't do anything about it before, but now my granddaughter-in-law is leading the research and development of a new repair fluid that's about to be released." He paused, considering they were all old comrades and would be very tight-lipped, so he continued, "Didn't my granddaughter-in-law take over the Medical Research Institute? It was the higher-ups who were investigating the repair fluid incident that brought the institute down."
It's just an excuse, and the real reason has not been revealed yet; those who were previously dismissed were dismissed, sent to the grassroots level, and some were sentenced. As for the charges, there are too many. It's not easy for them to find charges when they control the Medical Research Institute.
In order to avoid causing panic among the outside world, the repair fluid is not the final perfect medicine and has not been announced.
Anyway, when the new repair fluid comes out, it will naturally be replaced with a new one; then it will be said to be the second generation, and the Medical Research Institute will give some compensation and rewards. This matter is still handled by his granddaughter-in-law.
"I'm not afraid to tell you, but my granddaughter-in-law is very filial. She knew I had been in the army for many years and was suffering from many illnesses. She specially studied medicine and developed something as wonderful as the repair fluid. You also know that my granddaughter-in-law is a genius among geniuses. She developed the repair fluid in just two years."
Mr. Wu and Mr. Cheng: ...we were shown off again.
Yan Guofeng seemed oblivious and said proudly, "The repair fluid made by my granddaughter-in-law has the effect of improving body functions. One tube is enough, so I took one tube. I've been drinking the repair fluid sold outside for so long, what do you think?"
"The body is going to be much more relaxed."
“It’s improved.”
"That's it. The repair fluid my granddaughter-in-law developed has the efficacy of revitalizing the human body, stimulating the immune system, and treating various diseases such as cancer. The repair fluid you are drinking now will only improve your health, not completely cure it."
Mr. Wu and Mr. Cheng were a little skeptical about their lives; they really didn't know about this.
