Time passed to December of the Gregorian calendar and November of the lunar calendar. There were still two months to go before the Chinese New Year. Chu Yao had prepared almost everything that needed to be prepared at home. The dishes at home were no different from last year. The only difference was that Chu Yao planted some garlic sprouts and leeks in large pots in the main room where they lived. This was just a trial planting. If they could survive, there would be no worries about fresh vegetables in the coming winter.
Chu Yao and the babies read and write together at home during the day.
Of course, the babies were looking at picture books with patterns, which Chu Yao and Yang Hang had purchased at the scrap recycling station before.
Yao Jinnian and Yang Hang go to get off work and come home normally, and their lives are peaceful. Although such days are boring, they are not without happiness. After all, no one's life is in chaos every day.
Of course, peaceful days will always be broken before long.
"Ayao, Ahang, let me tell you something. I will probably go back to the capital after the New Year." Yao Jinnian's tone was flat, as if he was just asking you what you had eaten today.
In fact, Yao Jinnian was excited. In those days when he had to work during the day and suffer from hunger and cold at night, if he had heard this good news, he might have jumped for joy, danced like a child, or even cried with joy.
But now he won't be unhappy, because he met Chu Yao, Yang Hang and their family. They healed his wounds and brought him happiness in his later years. So he is not unhappy, but this happiness has become insignificant in this happy life.
"Uncle Nian, really? This is really great. You finally don't have to be so cautious anymore."
"Yeah, who says it isn't? This is really something worth celebrating. It's too late tonight, so I'll go to town tomorrow and buy some good food for us to have a big meal."
"You two, don't be impatient. I haven't finished what I'm saying. It doesn't matter if I leave. You two should also think more about the future. It would be great if we could meet in the capital in the future."
"Uncle Nian, don't worry, we will meet in the capital."
"Oh, I'm leaving after the New Year. I suddenly feel like time has flown by so quickly. In the blink of an eye, more than a decade has already passed."
Yang Hang and Chu Yao didn't say anything at this time, but just watched Yao Jinnian recall the past. After all, some memories were too painful and too hard to forget.
"Grandpa Yao, are you leaving?" Dabao felt that the atmosphere at home was not right.
Dabao's voice pulled Yao Jinnian back from his memories. He smiled and said to Dabao, "I have to wait until Grandpa Yao's New Year is over before I can leave. How about taking you with me then?"
"Okay, okay, I want to be with Grandpa Yao."
"Okay, okay." Yao Jinnian touched his non-existent beard and smiled happily.
"Uncle Nian, let's eat. The food will get cold soon. Let's chat after we finish eating." Chu Yao urged Yao Jinnian to eat quickly. The weather was cold and the food would get cold soon. It would have no taste when it was cold.
Although they had passed the topic for the time being, Yao Jinnian knew that Yang Hang and Chu Yao were not feeling very good about it, and he himself was also feeling bad. If the policy was relaxed in the future, maybe they would be able to live with him again.
Yao Jinnian thought optimistically, but then he changed his mind and felt it was not credible.
