Zhao nodded all the way, thanked the old man, and then took Fan Xi'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 her the truth about what he had heard. He then comforted her: "Grandma, Grandpa, I'll ask someone to find out if we can buy this house. If we could, we would have bought it back long ago."
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 yard.
He Zhengxiang put on his military coat and came out to look as soon as he heard the sound of the car. 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 days. How come your hair has turned so white?"
Zhao Xubai chuckled, "Your forehead wrinkles are so thick they could kill a fly, and you still have the nerve to laugh at me?"
Yes, ever since the Wenhui Revolution began, Zhao Xubai and his wife took Zhao all the way to the countryside and have not been to Beijing since. During the years when the conflict was intense, both families were busy taking care of themselves and were afraid of implicating each other, so they dared not have any contact with 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 do it in the middle of the night. He didn't dare go in person. There were too many people watching him, and he couldn't be careless at all...
More than ten days have passed in a flash, and things and people have changed. Both old people feel a little emotional!
"Old Zhao, look at you, I've been telling you to come to Jing City for a long time. 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're willing to come out. Even Si Yan couldn't persuade you to come. You're really stubborn! Now that you're here, don't leave. Stay in Jing City from now on so that we old guys can take care of you!"
Zhao Xubai smiled and replied, "Who is immortal? I'm not! My grandson and granddaughter-in-law are so good, I'm enjoying their blessings, I don't want to die!"
He Zhengxiang immediately corrected her, "It's grandson and granddaughter-in-law! They've been surnamed Zhao all the way, so they're your real grandson! If that wasn't easy to say, I would definitely have them call you grandpa and me grandpa! As for their children, they will definitely have the surname Zhao too!"
Mentioning the two little ones, He Zhengxiang's eyes showed a little more excitement. "By the way, you haven't seen your great-grandson and great-granddaughter yet, right? 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 Xi pushed Sun Simin and followed behind with a smile.
When they entered the house, the first thing they saw were two little kids playing on the floor.
The two little guys saw someone coming in and looked at everyone with sparkling eyes.
Zhao Xubai and Sun Simin saw that the two children were a little excited. Sun Simin got out of the wheelchair, slowly walked forward and stood beside Zhao Xubai, smiling and saying: "Yuanyuan, Xiaoxiao, we are your great-grandmother and great-grandfather. Come here and let us hug you, okay?"
But the two children's gazes passed over them at the same time and fell on Fan Xi and Zhao Yilu who had been away for most of the day.
One was shouting “Mommy, Mommy…” and the other was shouting “Daddy, Daddy…”
Everyone laughed out loud.
He Siyan walked forward and gently helped Sun Simin sit down.
Although He Siyan had just visited them in the mountains 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 again due to the excitement.
It is true that this grandson is very similar to their daughter, both in appearance and personality. Even his health is like his mother's, which is not very good. Seeing this, He Siyan can't help but think of their daughter Zhao Mengyun, who was beautiful but had an unfortunate life.
Sun Simin took He Siyan's slender hand and asked with concern: "Siyan, I heard that your grandfather's cough and asthma have improved a lot. Is that true?"
