Jinmen.
Heping District.
An old building with a brick and wood structure, some antique architectural styles, a three-story building, a large yard, with many flowers and plants, koi carp swimming slowly in the pond, and a few hanging on the branches in the corner.
birdcage.
When night falls, the lights on the ground light up, making the whole yard look less dark and more harmonious under the light.
In the living room on the first floor, there are various exquisite wooden furniture, high-quality wood, carefully carved by exquisite carvers, and various exquisite hollows, animals, plants, and characters are carved on the tables.
Chair, coffee table.
Decorated calligraphy and paintings can also be seen on the walls, and some green plants are embellished, giving the antique living room more flavor.
Vases, tea sets, thread-bound books placed in conspicuous places, pens, inks, paper and inkstones are placed on the desk next to the balcony. On a piece of white paper held down by a paperweight, there are also the words "family happiness" written on it, but the last one
Not all the words are written.
From the dining room next door, voices can still be heard.
In the dining room, which is just across the wall from the living room, there are several people sitting. The person sitting at the table is a middle-aged man who looks a little bookish. He is wearing a simple coat, holding a bowl of soup in his hand, and he is drinking slowly.
"I'm not serious." After saying this, he went to do other things.
Why are you reduced to doing hard labor?
"It's good to change the environment. If you change the environment, you can always see and learn new things." Seeing that the child was a little fussy, the man said loudly: "Xiao Bei, sit down obediently."
"Dad, don't be so strict with your brother all the time. You don't know where he's gone." The young woman put the brewed tea in front of the middle-aged man and gave her husband another cup.
There must be someone to take care of it. Otherwise, if he raises a dandy at home, no matter how rich his family is, he hopes that his son will become a dragon and his daughter will become a phoenix. He also hopes that his children will have a good future.
I know that she is worried about her child being outside and is worried that her child will be wronged.
Song Kui, who was sitting next to him, took his hand, looked at Zhang Jianbin who was smiling, leaned on his shoulder and said, "How about we start a business?"
The middle-aged woman opposite shook her head.
"Well, what's wrong, wife?" Zhang Jianbin turned to ask her.
Zhang Jianbin, who had been silent all this time, drank most of the cup of tea, put the cup on the table, his eyes made several obscure changes, but he didn't say a word.
Zhang Jianbin nodded and said, "I know."
He has a habit of talking to his wife so much about work matters, no matter whether it is good or bad, work is work and life is life. As a middle-aged woman with uncomplicated thoughts, it is useless for her to talk too much.
The middle-aged man looked at her: "Your own son, why do you ask me if you call me?"
"husband."
"Be more attentive to your work," the middle-aged man said.
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea before sighing.
She looked at her husband next to her, said nothing, stood up, took the child from her arms, and let her eat in peace.
The middle-aged man looked at his daughter and then at his grandson in his wife's arms: "If a dog is not taught, it will not prevent theft. If a cat is not trained, it will not catch mice. It is better to have a father teach you the rules than to be taught the rules by an outsider."
"Old Song, should I call Xiao Ci?"
Holding the tea cup, the man wearing glasses drank tea slowly and listened to his wife and father-in-law chatting without saying anything.
The child looked at him and became quiet, obviously a little afraid of him.
"Mom, haven't I called you yet?" The woman handed the fruit to the child.
Somewhat strangely, he didn't seem to find the tea scalding his mouth.
What is a woman's kindness? It's like this. She can't bear to do anything. The child is over 20 years old and she still can't bear it. A loving mother often loses her children. The child cannot be pampered like this.
After cleaning up the house, Song Kui took her children and left with her husband. They lived not far away and it was very convenient to go back and forth.
"The poor raise a son and the poor raise a daughter, and the rich raise a healthy body." Lao Song made her happy.
Opposite them were a woman holding a child, and a gentle man wearing glasses. The little boy in her arms was staring at the fruit on the table, clamoring to eat it.
The middle-aged man sitting at the table put down his bowl, wiped his mouth, and then looked at his son-in-law: "Are you full?"
"dad!"
He was used to being glared at by his wife.
Song Kui put the child to sleep, looked at her husband who was sitting on the balcony smoking, quietly closed the door, and then walked to him.
"Even if he has gained ten pounds, you will still think he has lost weight." Lao Song replied helplessly.
"My brother is not a cat or dog, nor is he like other children who play all day long, so he is obedient enough." The woman touched her husband: "right?"
"I feel uncomfortable just thinking about that scene. He has never suffered like this. He looks so thin." Her mind was filled with images of her son sweating profusely.
Holding the phone, she thought for a while, but still didn't make a call. During the day, she made a video call and saw her son sweating profusely and carrying a big bag. As soon as she saw him, he hung up the phone.
"Look, Zhang Jianbin, the brother-in-law, knows this." The woman looked at her father and said, "Let mom call and tell him to come back. He is already over 20 years old. He needs to take care of the family affairs. It is also time to find someone."
The right person, it’s time to consider a lifelong event.”
"I can do that. There are too many things in the finance department." Song Kui nodded: "I was here. If you didn't insist on me going to the finance department, I wouldn't go."
Lao Song shook his head.
The more she thought about it, the more distressed she became. If she hadn't thought about her child's high self-esteem and slowly called again, she would have called several times to ask him to come back.
"This time he suddenly said he wanted to go out and relax, so I felt there must be something going on inside. Do you know anything?" She looked at Lao Song and said, "You always don't tell me anything."
He doesn't need to be so strict, but with such a wife, he can't be strict at all.
The middle-aged woman who was teasing the child remained silent and teased her grandson with toys. Seeing the child laughing happily, she also started laughing.
Old Song watched her leave, took his phone and read the messages, carefully looked at one of the forms, and put the phone away.
The middle-aged couple were the only ones left in the room. The middle-aged man with a writing brush finished writing the words "family happiness" and then wrote the words "contentment and happiness".
"Okay, do you really think he's going to do hard work? It's not like he can't find a job. He's still a college student after all. It's not difficult to support himself. Only by suffering a little hardship and suffering a little loss outside can he know who is good and who is bad.
, so as not to lose sight of anyone." Lao Song said.
Nodding, he replied: "Indeed, Xiao Ci is already very sensible."
The middle-aged man put a plate of beef in front of him: "Jianbin, eat more, you have a good appetite."
Next to him was a middle-aged woman with a gentle appearance and wearing a blue dress. She was probably well-maintained and her appearance looked a bit youthful.
I was thinking about the child at first, but I couldn't help it, so I burst out laughing.
The man pushed up his glasses and nodded.
"Bai Chang is such a big man, but he doesn't have enough brains."
——
In a large flat not far away.
If the plate is not broken yet, just knock it. There is no need to break it.
His eyes twitched, he took the chopsticks again, smiled and took a few bites of the beef handed over by his father-in-law.
She loves her daughter as well as her son. Mothers are like this. The palms and backs of their hands are all flesh. They don't want to see their children suffer, and they don't want to see their children suffer.
The middle-aged man looked at his daughter: "Xiao Kui, didn't you say you are tired from work and don't have time to take care of your children? You can go to the administrative department tomorrow."
What are you doing suffering this kind of pain outside?
The middle-aged man nodded: "Then go to administration."
The wife next to her looked at her, then lowered her head to drink tea.
It's just that he doesn't express these things, he does them silently or keeps them in his heart.
"It's nothing, what should I tell you? It's enough for you to take care of your family." Lao Song put down the brush, then walked to her and pulled her to sit on the sofa: "Your son is already 22, I
I married you when I was 22."
"Jianbin."
The mother and daughter cleared the dining table and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, leaving him and his father-in-law alone.
Zhang Jianbin was silent for a while and then looked at Song Kui.
The person who knows him best is Song Kui, just like he also knows very well how smart Song Kui is.
"Okay!" After being silent for a long time, he still agreed.
Excluding many others, at least, he still loves his wife very much, and this has always been the case until now.
