Zhao nodded all the way, thanked the old man, then took Fan Hua's hand and went back to the car.
The two old men in the car were staring at them with burning eyes.
Zhao Yilu did not hide anything and told the news truthfully, and then comforted him: "Grandma, Grandpa, I will ask someone to find out if we can buy this house. If we can, we will buy it back."
Zhao Xubai and Sun Simin nodded and said nothing else. It would be the best if they could buy it back!
The car slowly drove into the alley and stopped at the same location as yesterday. Several people got out of the car and walked through the alley to the He family's yard.
As soon as He Zhengxiang heard the sound of the car, he put on his military coat and looked out. The moment he saw Zhao Xubai, his eyes were red...
He stepped forward and patted Zhao Xubai on the shoulder, "Old Zhao, I haven't seen you for more than ten years. How come your hair has turned so white!"
Zhao Xubai laughed and said, "Your forehead wrinkles are so thick that they can kill a fly. How dare you laugh at me?"
Yes, since the Wenhui Revolution began, Zhao Xubai and his wife took Zhao all the way to the countryside and have never come to Beijing again. During the years when the two families were in turmoil, they were both busy with their own affairs and did not dare to have any contact with each other for fear of implicating each other. Later, when the situation eased a little, they only kept in touch through letters or phone calls.
Even when He Zhengxiang sent He Siyan to the mountains, he secretly sent someone to send him there in the middle of the night. He did not dare to go there himself. There were too many people watching him during those years, so he could not be careless at all...
More than ten years have passed in a flash, and everything and everyone has changed. Both old people feel a little emotional!
"Old Zhao, look at you, I told you to come to Jing City a long time ago. My yard is big enough for us old guys to live in, but you just won't come. You have to wait until I come back to pick you up in person before you are willing to leave. Even Si Yan couldn't invite you to come. You are so stubborn! Don't leave this time. Stay in Jing City in the future so that we old guys can have someone to take care of us!"
Zhao Xubai smiled and replied, "Who is immortal? I am not! My grandson and granddaughter-in-law are so good, I am enjoying their blessings, I don't want to die!"
He Zhengxiang immediately corrected him, "It's grandson and granddaughter-in-law! They have been surnamed Zhao all the way, so they are your grandsons! If it's not easy to call them that, I will definitely let them call you grandpa and call me grandpa! As for their children, they must also have the surname Zhao!"
When talking about the two little ones, He Zhengxiang's eyes were obviously more excited. "By the way, you haven't seen the little great-grandson and great-granddaughter yet, come on, follow me into the house, I'll take you and Simin in to see them!"
After saying that, he pulled Zhao Xubai into the yard. Zhao Yilu and Fan Hua pushed Sun Simin and followed behind with a smile.
When they entered the house, the first thing they saw was two little kids playing on the floor.
When the two little guys saw someone coming in, they looked at everyone with sparkling eyes.
Zhao Xubai and Sun Simin were both excited to see the two children. Sun Simin got off the wheelchair, slowly walked up to stand beside Zhao Xubai, and said with a smile, "Yuanyuan, Xiaoxiao, we are your great-grandma and great-grandpa. Come here and let us hug you, okay?"
But the two children's eyes passed over them at the same time and fell on Fan Hua and Zhao Yilu who had been separated for most of the day.
One shouted: "Mama Mama Mama..."
One of them shouted: "Daddy, Daddy..."
Everyone laughed out loud.
He Siyan walked forward and gently helped Sun Simin sit down.
Even though He Siyan had only visited them in the mountain during the summer vacation, Sun Simin felt particularly distressed every time she saw He Siyan. She couldn't help but have tears in her eyes due to the excitement.
It is true that this grandson looks very much like their daughter, both in appearance and personality. Even his health is like his mother's, which is not very good. When seeing He Siyan, I can't help but think of their daughter Zhao Mengyun, who was beautiful but had a tragic fate.
Sun Simin took He Siyan's slender hand and asked with concern: "Siyan, I heard that your cough and asthma have improved a lot this year, is it true?"
He Siyan smiled and nodded, "Grandma, it's true, I've been feeling much better recently!"
"That's good, that's good!" Sun Simin patted the back of He Siyan's hand, her eyes full of relief.
Zhao Xubai sat down next to his wife, took out a handkerchief and gently wiped her tears. "Don't cry, it's a good thing that Si Yan recovered from his illness, you should be happy!"
Sun Simin nodded quickly, "You're right, we should be happy. I'm really happy today! After so many years, our family is finally together again. It's great!"
In the evening, Wang Guifen prepared a table of delicious dishes. He Zhengxiang took out the good wine hidden under the pomegranate tree in the yard and drank with Zhao Xubai. Because He Siyan was in poor health, no one dared to let him drink too much, but Zhao Yilu had to accompany the two old men to drink...
Even though Zhao Yilu could drink a lot, he couldn't help but feel that the two old men had no drinking ethics and bullied Zhao Yilu because he was the younger generation. They took a sip but asked Zhao Yilu to drink a small cup!
In the end, the two old men were still very energetic, but Zhao Yilu was a little tipsy...
It was because Wang Guifang and Sun Simin were afraid that Zhao Yilu would drink too much and harm his health that they stopped He Zhengxiang and Zhao Xubai who were taking advantage of their seniority.
As for the two little ones, the four old people reached a consensus during dinner that each family would help take care of one at night. They said that as long as the child doesn’t cry and look for his mother, other problems are not a problem!
The two children were tactful and fell asleep early, without any intention of having to find Fan Hua before they could sleep.
Tonight is another rare quiet night for the young couple.
When Zhao Yilu returned to the house still a little drunk, Fan Hua was sitting in front of the kang packing clothes to wear to Geng Ailing's wedding banquet tomorrow.
After Zhao Yilu came into the house and saw his wife, the curve of his mouth never faded. He leaned over with his tall body, bent down and hugged the person on the kang, and pressed his slightly hot handsome face tightly against Fan Hua's face, like a clinging big cat looking for coolness...
Zhao Yi Lu said with a hint of alcohol in his mouth, "Wife, I am really happy today. All my relatives are by my side today. I am really satisfied!"
Fan Hua gently patted his slightly hot cheek and asked, "Zhao Yilu, are you drunk?"
Zhao Yilu chuckled twice, leaned on Fan Hua's shoulder and nodded, "I haven't drunk for a long time. I drank a little too much today, but I'm only a little drunk. It's okay!"
As he spoke, he did not forget to raise his thumb and index finger, making a little gesture...
Fan Hua found the drunk Zhao Yilu cute. She opened Zhao Yilu's head, which was still full of alcohol, and stared at him for a few seconds under the dim incandescent light, then asked softly, "Can you still wash yourself?"
Zhao Yilu immediately stood up and saluted, "Yes! Rule 3 of the husband-wife code is not to be disliked by your wife! Wife, I'll go wash up now!"
After saying that, he turned around and washed up carefully.
Fan Hua looked at Zhao Yilu who was busy in front of her and immediately raised the corner of her mouth. She almost forgot that Zhao Yilu had set ten rules for husband and wife for herself.
This guy didn't forget it even when he was drunk. It seems he really kept it in mind.
When Zhao Yilu finished washing, he was about to rush over to hug Fan Hua, but Fan Hua immediately pushed him away and said, "Zhao Yilu, help me get some water. I haven't washed my feet yet."
After hearing this, Zhao Yilu immediately stood up straight, saluted, and replied in a loud voice: "Report to the commander, I promise to complete the task!"
After saying that, he swayed slightly and went to prepare hot water for Fan Hua.
The corners of Fan Hua's mouth curled up wildly, and finally she covered her face and chuckled. Her big wolfdog was so well-behaved!
