"I'm not unhappy, it's you who is unhappy." He concealed it well, but he couldn't hide it from her.
Yan Rushan smiled softly, "I'm not unhappy, it's just that those people back home are really annoying. We haven't been back in all these years. At first, Grandpa and Grandma had just settled down, and my parents had jobs, so it wasn't convenient for them to go back. Later, Grandma passed away, and Grandpa got busy and had no time. My parents were busy too, so we barely saw them year-round. After so many years, I thought Grandpa had almost forgotten about those people and things back home, but I didn't expect him to still miss his ancestors' graves."
"You didn't go back even after the victory?" That shouldn't be the case! After liberation, many people couldn't wait to go home because they missed their hometown so much.
Yan Rushan shook his head. "No, I haven't been back for so many years. I don't know if those annoying people are still around. If they are, you would definitely dislike them."
"You haven't even been back, how do you know they're annoying?" This was her main concern.
"It was a long time ago, when I was only three or four. I still have some memories of it," Yan Rushan explained coldly. "At the beginning, it was quite a mess. Grandpa was implicated, and the enemy family, wanting to cause trouble for him, specifically informed the people over there about Grandpa's situation in Beijing. Those old guys over there didn't even bother to ask if it was true or not, they just came looking for me with an address. I still remember their aggressive expressions. Later, Grandpa arranged for someone to send him to the Public Security Bureau."
"Although it didn't have much of an impact on Grandpa, everyone knows that the Yan family has a lot of complicated relatives. Although I was young at the time, I still remember a lot of things, including these things."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded, understanding his feelings very well; however, those people must have gone too far, otherwise, Yan Rushan would not have remembered it so deeply that he still felt disgusted.
"What happened to them afterwards? Did they come looking for you again?"
"I don't know. I haven't seen them since then. Maybe they came, maybe they didn't." He was still a child at that time, and the adults never told him or explained to him how they did things.
Zhong Yuxiu chuckled. She had seen many relatives like this. They were the best in the world. It seemed as if the world should revolve around them. They always felt that other people's things should be shared with them, and they felt that a little was not enough. They were greedy and had to take the lion's share or even all of it to be satisfied.
When dealing with people like this, you have to confront them head-on and not back down; if you back down, things will get difficult in the future, and they'll be afraid if you confront them head-on. If you really can't do it, just beat them. If they don't behave after one beating, beat them a few more times. There will always be a time when they get scared.
"It would be good if they don't come looking for you. If they really come, you, your parents, and your grandpa will all be in trouble." Those people were really scared.
Yan Rushan nodded and said, "At that time, grandpa's position was not as high as it is now, so he would still be worried if they made trouble. But now it's different. If they dare to come, I will make them come in a state of shock and leave in a state of disgrace." Shangjing is not as peaceful as it seems. There are many ruffians and hooligans.
"I believe you, but those people should be almost dead, right? Otherwise, they would be too old to move." When I first met the old man, he was also sick. If he delayed for another year or two, he would have difficulty moving.
As for those people, I wonder if they've ever taken the repair fluid. Probably not. The price of the repair fluid was quite high back then, and even though it's more affordable now, not everyone is willing to buy it. Unless they're terminally ill or seriously ill and want to get better soon, who would think of buying this stuff?
"I don't know. I'll ask someone to find out sometimes." Since his grandfather wanted to go back, he, as his grandson, had to arrange everything; knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in a hundred battles.
The couple forgot about the three little kids while they were talking. The little kids looked at them, blinked occasionally, but didn't say anything.
When they finished the topic and went to look at the children, they suddenly realized that they had actually ignored them.
"Oh, my dear babies, I'm sorry, I forgot about you." She picked up Li Zhen and Li Ming who were sitting on the bed, and put a little baby on her lap.
Sitting on his mother's lap and being hugged and coaxed by her, Li Mingli was so happy; he grinned and laughed, which was really adorable.
Goudan had no use for his job, so he just went to sleep in the corner.
"Our son is such a good boy. He knows we are talking and won't disturb us." As a mother, she was not stingy with her words of praise for her son.
Yan Rushan didn't think they were obedient. "Grandpa is right, they are the little devils. They come here specifically to mess with us. Look at how well-behaved other people's children are. They all know how to love their dads. But they always go against me."
"What are you talking about?" Yuxiu glared at him and said, "They are still young. What can they know? They just do what they want. When they are having fun, they don't care about me as their mother."
"Then they are here to collect debts as well." One person is enough to worry about, and three people came at once. Yan Rushan was happy at first, but after being happy, he felt complicated and mixed emotions.
With more children, the family did prosper; however, he still remembered the suffering his daughter-in-law endured, from the early stages of pregnancy to childbirth, he remembered it clearly.
Yan Rushan always thought that her son was here to collect debts. She didn't have the courage to ask what if one of them was a daughter. Would he have to hold her in his hands for fear of dropping her, or hold her in his mouth for fear of her melting? If he told her anything, it would seem like he was jealous of his non-existent daughter.
"Have you forgotten what grandpa told you before?" She glared at him and didn't look at him again.
Yan Rushan realized belatedly what his grandfather had said. He held Li Ji and pinched his chubby face, "Don't hold a grudge against Dad. Dad was just talking, you didn't hear anything. When you grow up and forget everything, you must be filial to Mom and Dad, listen to what they say, and be a good child."
Glancing at him again, Zhong Yuxiu didn't know what to say; this man had a childish side at home, sometimes really childish, but outside, he was the heir and representative of the Yan family, so calmness and composure were the basics, and competence was a prerequisite.
As a human being, there are always some things that you should take the initiative to protect and fight for, otherwise, what is the meaning of life.
Yan Rushan's responsibilities, what he needs to protect and fight for are all related to his family; he had her before, and now she is the person he holds in his heart. All she can do is to advance and retreat with him. Whether for him or for the children, the Yan family must be well.
"You can remember things at such a young age. Do you think they have shown signs of precocity? Do they remember all your debt collection remarks?" Hugging her two sons, she suddenly became curious about his expression.
Looking up, I saw his expression change, then recover in an instant; his brows relaxed, as if it wasn't him who had changed his expression just now.
