"Mr. Yan, Comrade Zhong, the house has been cleaned. Please carry the children into the house first. I am dirty and it is not appropriate for me to carry them." Wang Daya said.
Gong Zhaodi nodded from behind, "We'll come back to look after the child after we've washed ourselves. I'll have to trouble you two to keep an eye on him for now."
"It's okay. They are my great-grandsons. It's my duty to take care of them. You just go about your business." Seeing that they were covered in dust and dirt, Yan Guofeng was worried about leaving the child in their care.
Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi still smiled and nodded in agreement; then they left. Yan Rushan and Zhong Yuxiu carried the children into the main room and let them play on the floor.
With the big guy Goudan by their side, the children stopped crying and making a fuss. After moving to another place, they immediately came back to him.
Seeing the children having fun, Zhong Yuxiu couldn't help but sigh, "They are so playful now. I wonder how naughty they will be when they can run and jump."
"Don't worry. It's better for boys to be a little naughty. Being naughty means they're smart." Yan Guofeng chuckled, already looking forward to his great-grandchildren's mischievous behavior. "They say the more naughty a child is, the smarter he will be when he grows up."
Zhong Yuxiu's mouth twitched slightly. This was definitely a misunderstanding. Fine, as long as the old man is happy.
Yan Guofeng added, "Our children have inherited your intelligence, so they will definitely be great in the future."
If a smart person is willing to use his intelligence in the right way, who can live a worse life than him?
"Also, our child must learn martial arts at the age of five." Lay a good foundation in advance.
Thinking too far ahead!
Not only did the muscles at the corners of her lips twitch, but the corners of her eyes were also twitching; the old man had already started making plans for the future. It seemed that one of his sons had to join the army to inherit the family business.
"Grandpa, it's still unknown what they will look like in the future." At least he reminded the old man.
"It won't be bad." Yan Guofeng was very sure.
Zhong Yuxiu wanted to ask him what gave the old man such confidence, but the words turned around and she swallowed them back; no matter why the old man was so confident, her sons would probably have a difficult road in the future.
As they were talking, Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi came back after washing themselves.
"Mr. Yan, Comrade Zhong, we are back."
"Have you packed up?" Zhong Yuxiu heaved a sigh of relief and turned to ask.
Wang Daya nodded. "Yes, Comrade Zhong, the clothes have been washed and hung out to dry. You and Elder Yan can take a break. Comrade Gong and I will take care of it here. The beds in your rooms have been made up, so you can go back and rest."
"Got it. You guys take care of the kids." After she finished speaking, she turned her gaze and said, "Grandpa, I'm going back to my room first. If you're tired, go and rest there."
Yan Guofeng hummed softly and nodded barely perceptibly, "You take a rest. You don't need to worry about this. You can go to work tomorrow after you have rested well."
"Okay, then you should take care of yourself too."
After saying goodbye, Yuxiu turned around and walked out of the main hall and headed towards the inner courtyard. When she arrived outside the couple's house, the soil on both sides of the path had been pulled clean, and the color of the soil could tell that it had been renovated.
Walking along the path and into the room, I saw Yan Rushan putting on his clothes, all wet.
"Have you just taken a shower?" she said as she walked towards him.
Yan Rushan put on a short-sleeved shirt, shook off the water on his head, turned around and said, "Wife, come here."
Yuxiu walked forward and was pulled into his arms. A pleasant smell of bath soap filled her face. She looked up at the man holding her and raised her hands to hug his neck.
"How come?" He suddenly got so excited.
"miss you."
Zhong Yuxiu: ...
I thought you had something to do, but you wanted to drive.
"Why do you miss me? We're together every day."
"I just missed you. You're my daughter-in-law, so it's only natural that I miss you." Yan Rushan said confidently. He lowered his head and kissed her fair and smooth face, a smile on his handsome face. "You were in the front yard with grandpa and the children. Why did you come here suddenly?"
Zhong Yuxiu said, "Comrade Wang and Comrade Gong have finished packing and are coming to relieve us. I just returned. Grandfather is still in the front yard. Oh, and there's something I need to tell you. Is our grandfather planning to train all his sons and send them all to the army?"
Yan Rushan asked in surprise, "What did grandpa say to you?"
"Grandpa said that children should start practicing martial arts after they turn five."
"That's right. My family, my dad, Xiao Hai, and I all started practicing martial arts at the age of five. Grandpa taught us personally, step by step."
Zhong Yuxiu was worried and said, "My sons haven't even grown up yet, and I'm already letting them plan their lives. Isn't this inappropriate? It's not fair to them."
"Don't worry." He hugged his wife and coaxed her. "It's still early. They'll be at least sixteen or seventeen years old. They'll have to graduate from college to join the army. By then, they'll be in their twenties and have their own ideas. We don't care, and Grandpa will respect them. However, in my generation of the Yan family, only Xiaohai is still in the army. Oh, and you, too. I've been completely marginalized. Grandpa wanted to pave the way for me to work in the field. At least I'm still in the army, maintaining this relationship."
"Unfortunately, as you know, I later went into business. Without someone to inherit the family business, the next generation will inevitably have one or two people join the army, and it would be best if these two people were one child each of mine and Xiao Hai's."
"When they grow up, Daddy will probably retire. By then, it will be up to them to support the Yan family."
"A family needs someone to support it in every generation, so don't worry about the children, wife. It's not just our children, there's also Xiaohai's." Yan Rushan chuckled. "When Xiaohai comes back, ask him if he has a partner. If not, arrange a blind date. We can't let him run away. The sooner the child speaks up, the more options he has in the future."
Due to the implementation of family planning, Yan Ruhai was destined to have only one child; if they were lucky, they could have two or three children.
Zhong Yuxiu shook her head and sighed, "If I had known..."
"What did you mean by 'I knew it earlier'?" Yan Rushan's eyes tightened. "If you had known this earlier, you wouldn't have married me? Don't even think about it. If you don't marry me, I'll pester you until you agree. We can't say anything hurtful."
"knew."
I feel depressed and my mood is still bad.
Seeing this, Yan Rushan felt uncomfortable. "You're worried and anxious now, but those three brats don't know it. Maybe when they grow up, they'll all want to join the army. This isn't something you can decide, right? Let's wait until they grow up and see."
That was indeed the case, but every time she saw the expectation in the old man's eyes, she couldn't help but feel mixed emotions.
As a mother, she wanted to give her children a fair chance to choose; however, as a younger generation, she couldn't bear to do so when she saw the hope in the eyes of her elders.
What's more, this person is an old man who has always been very kind to her.
