"You little brats, can't you let your mother take a break? You're so clingy." Yan Rushan poked his eldest son's head in disdain. The eldest son was the closest to his hand. This poke made Li Ji's forehead red. "I can't call you little brats anymore. From now on, I'll have to call you clingy people."
"No." Li Ji waved his hand away. "Smelly, stinky."
"Stinky, Dad."
After Li Zhen finished speaking, Li Ming nodded seriously, "Stinky, Dad, I don't stink."
Yan Guofeng couldn't stop laughing. There were times when his eldest grandson was disliked by his sons. Before the children could speak, the eldest grandson had disliked his three sons countless times. Sure enough, retribution came too quickly.
Zhong Yuxiu smiled on her pretty face and pulled her sons' short hair, "You are not obedient. How can you say that to your dad? Dad is cleaner than you. At least Dad doesn't smell bad, but you all smell bad. Look how disobedient you are." If they were obedient and behaved well, Wang Daya and the others would definitely give them a bath.
"That's true." Yan Guofeng nodded. "When you're not at home, they look for you whenever they have some free time. If they can't find you, they cry. When they get tired of crying, they fall asleep. If you give them a bath, they'll wake up and cry again. Not only Comrade Wang and the others, but even I don't dare to wake them up when they're asleep."
Crying once is a small matter, but the worry is that the crying will never stop, which is harmful to the body! Children are still young and don’t know what moderation is, nor can they adjust themselves; when they miss their mother, they want to find their mother, and when they feel upset, they can only cry to vent.
"Give them a bath later. They really smell bad when they stink." No matter how much he loves his great-grandchildren, he can't say that they smell good against his conscience.
Zhong Yuxiu nodded and looked at her husband.
Yan Rushan's face froze. "Okay, I'll go get them some hot water for a bath."
Yan Guofeng smiled in silence. After Yan Rushan left, he said, "The children are quite wary of Dashan. Perhaps they still remember his past attitude towards them. If possible, Yuxiu, you can mediate. They're still young, so improving the relationship is easy. When they grow up, I'm afraid they'll remain wary."
When a person enters a certain state and fails to adjust in time, he will subconsciously guard against this person over time.
It's really just subconscious, and the actions are often faster than the brain.
"Yeah, I know." The problem still lies with Yan Rushan. If Yan Rushan could be more patient with his sons, the little ones would not be so wary of him, or even dislike him in order to win his favor.
"I know Dashan has the biggest problem, so you should try to persuade him."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded slightly. "Rushan still loves them very much, but he is not good at expressing this love to his sons. Children can read facial expressions, but they cannot understand the true emotions of adults, so misunderstandings arise."
"I hope so." Yan Guofeng chuckled helplessly.
As for not being good at expressing affection for the three boys, it was because his eldest grandson had never intended to have any affection for his sons. He certainly loved them, but even an outsider could see that his affection and love were all for his grandson's wife. The three boys were not stupid, so how could they not see it?
The boys like their mother more, so they like to cling to her the most; this in turn causes the eldest grandson to have an additional layer of aversion to the boys. In order to improve this situation, Yan Rushan has to make changes first and let the children let down their vigilance and guard.
"Grandpa, maybe it will be better when the children are older." Feeling their father's love for them, the relationship naturally changed.
Yan Guofeng was not so optimistic. His great-grandchildren were too smart. "When Dashan comes back later, let's talk to him."
"Okay, let Comrade Wang and the others come over and give the children a bath." It's really time to have a good talk. If we continue like this, it's really not a good thing.
As they were talking, Yan Rushan, Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi came back each carrying a bucket of hot water. Yan Guofeng and Zhong Yuxiu looked at each other and thought, this is good, there is no need to let Yan Rushan inform them.
"Comrade Zhong, give us the child. We will take him to take a bath." The three of them carried the bucket into the bathroom and poured it back out.
"Wash them clean and wipe their hair with a towel." Zhong Yuxiu made way for them to carry the children into the bathroom. She said loudly, "Rushan, come out for a moment."
Yan Rushan put his son down and let him play on the floor. Fortunately, all the rooms in the house were equipped with floor heating, so there was no need to worry about catching a cold.
"What's wrong?" He sat next to his wife and didn't plan to move.
Yan Guofeng didn't say anything, but just winked at Zhong Yuxiu; Zhong Yuxiu had no choice but to break the deadlock, "I called you out because grandpa wants to talk to you."
Yan Guofeng: “….”
Looking at his eldest grandson's wife, he saw her looking up at the sky, as if she didn't see his gaze.
"Ahem." He coughed lightly to save his dignity, "Dashan!"
"Grandpa, just tell me what you want to say. I'm listening." Sitting next to his wife, he was in a good mood, with a faint smile on his handsome face.
"What? The mountain!"
"Grandpa, if you have something to say, just say it. Why are you hesitating?"
Yan Guofeng: I’m afraid we can’t keep this eldest grandson.
Yan Rushan continued, "If you have anything you want me to do, just tell me." Didn't you complete the task you were asked to do last time? Could it be that there was something else you couldn't bring up?
Under the suspicious gaze of his eldest grandson, Yan Guofeng glanced at his eldest grandson's wife again and gritted his teeth, "I called you out because I want to talk to you."
"What?"
"Can't you be a little gentler with your three children?" The eldest grandson looked calm, and Yan Guofeng steeled his heart and spoke, "Look at how distant the children are from you. Talk to them nicely and don't be so quick to dislike them. They'll naturally become closer to you, and they won't pester your wife so often in the future, right? At least it'll give your wife a break. Otherwise, every time she leaves, they start looking for someone else. If this continues, will your wife still be able to work properly?"
Yan Rushan said helplessly, "Okay, I'll talk to them." What else can he do? The sons are here to collect debts.
"Don't make promises verbally so quickly. It goes in one ear and out the other. These three sons are your own children. Don't wait until they grow up and realize their father doesn't care about them, doesn't love them, and even despises them in various ways. By then, it will be difficult for you to change things. Children are innocent but also stubborn, not to mention they are smart!"
Not only is he smart, but he also shows signs of precocity.
As time goes by, who can guarantee that there will be no shadow left in their hearts?
Therefore, it is imperative for Yan Rushan to change his attitude and ideas.
"Grandpa, I remember it. Don't worry, I know what to do." Yan Rushan responded sincerely and solemnly. Yan Guofeng glanced at him deeply and finally felt a little relieved.
Seeing this, Zhong Yuxiu smiled faintly; she was not worried. Yan Rushan was quick-witted and not the rebellious type who liked to dwell on trivial matters. If she told him the seriousness of the matter, he would understand what to do.
