"Grandpa is right, that's what I mean. Grandpa, will my brothers come back to celebrate the Lantern Festival?" Han Yimo asked while dodging his grandfather's iron sand palm. He has two older brothers, but they both work at the Kyoto Research Institute. They are currently working on an important project, so they have not been back.
"I don't know. They are in seclusion now. Except for the relevant leaders, no one knows the progress of the project, nor when they will come out." Old Man Han shook his head.
"Where are the eldest and second sisters-in-law?"
"They also have jobs there and have to take care of children. The weather is bad and the road is unsafe, so I didn't let them come back." Kang Ying interrupted.
Her eldest son and second son are twins. Perhaps they inherited the genes of the Han family. They have been interested in mechanical structure since they were very young. With Han Ning's guidance, they showed their talent in this area when they were in junior high school. After graduating from university, they stayed in Kyoto for research and work. They married wives who were also colleagues in the same unit. Now they both have a son.
"Mom, if you miss them, you can go to Kyoto to see them."
"It's too far. I only have seven days off. I can't stay for many days even if I go. Besides, I may not be able to see him even if I go. I'd better wait for a while." Kang Ying shook her head. She has parents and grandmother-in-law above her, an old man in the middle, and a son below her. How can she leave during the New Year?
"Alas, we are too far away and it is so difficult to reunite." Han Yima sighed.
"It will become more and more convenient in the future." Kang Mingyuan comforted dryly. The Han family was just like their Kang family. Han Ning had two brothers, one in a research base in the northwest, and the other in a research institute in Kyoto like his two sons. The family would only be reunited once every few years.
"When the weather gets warmer, grandpa and grandma can go live with my third uncle for a while, so they can see my eldest and second brothers." Han Yimo thought for a while and said that Grandpa Han and Grandma Han have retired and can travel around.
"We'll talk about it when the time comes." Although Old Mrs. Han was a little tempted, she was also a little scared when she thought about taking a train for more than 30 hours.
Kang Mingyuan still had to go to Yongxing Street to make steamed buns. He drank a cup of tea and sat for a while before going back: "Grandpa Han, Grandma Han, Aunt, Uncle, I'm leaving now. I'll see you later."
"Let's go after dinner." Old Mrs. Han tried to persuade her to stay.
"No, I have another job in the afternoon."
"Brother Yuan still has a lot to do in the afternoon, grandma, please don't keep him." Han Yimo knew that they still had to help him prepare food, so he tried to persuade them. He knew that his grandma was a first-rate person at keeping people.
"Mingyuan has the ability, let him go, there will be many opportunities to meet him in the future." said Grandpa Han.
"Well, let's go. Bring Qiao Mo over to play when you have time." Seeing that her husband and grandson were talking, the old lady had to let go.
After Qiao Mo, Kang Mingyuan and the others left, she went back to the house. She first lit the kerosene stove to boil water, then took out a bag of flour and a chopping board from the space. She put the chopping board on the sink, poured the flour on the chopping board, beat thirty eggs, mixed them with warm water, and added yeast powder. She kneaded several portions, put the kneaded dough into a large vat, covered it with gauze and left it there to rise, and then kneaded another portion.
When Kang Mingyuan came back, he saw Qiao Mo kneading dough in the kitchen. He knew that he was making steamed buns for Han Yimo.
"Mo Mo, you must be tired. Let me do it." Kang Mingyuan washed his hands carefully, pulled Qiao Mo away, and kneaded the dough himself.
"Brother Yuan, do you want to do something else?" Qiao Mo asked.
"Just give him some more dried meat, nothing else." Kang Mingyuan shook his head. He wanted to make some dumplings for him, but these had a strong smell and the filling would easily reveal itself when taken out for eating.
