The bar in the corner of the living room is slightly heated and the smell of alcohol is intoxicating.
Cheng Tianyuan shook the red wine glass and took a sip. He turned sideways and saw that Ahu had already drank more than half of the glass. He was so angry that he wanted to go up and grab the glass.
"You only have one glass! No more!"
Ahu laughed and put his long arms around his arm.
"Brother, how many years have we not drank like this? Hmm? It seems like a few decades ago, right? Do you still remember when we opened a small store by the river? When the goods came in the evening, we and Amin moved and loaded the goods together.
We work hard and sweat profusely, and then we sit at the door with a bottle of beer and enjoy the river breeze, drinking and bragging at the same time! Hahaha!"
Cheng Tianyuan squinted his eyes and fell into memory.
"Of course I remember... Ranran wasn't born yet at that time. It was only a few decades, maybe thirty years."
Ahu was stunned for a moment and shook his head slowly: "Why does it feel like a long, long time to me? It must be forty or fifty years."
"Nonsense!" Cheng Tianyuan shook the red wine glass and whispered: "I don't drink much, and you haven't been able to drink for many years, so you can't remember clearly."
After hearing this, Ahu didn't know what he thought of, and let out a long sigh.
"I remember when I was young, I was as strong as a cow! I was tall and strong, and people around the street called me 'Big Tiger'. When I opened a small supermarket with you, your wife, and Amin, I often went to the sports car
, one person can carry two when carrying goods."
Cheng Tianyuan reminded: "When you were wholesale clothing in the provincial capital, you were also very strong, with tendons all over your body! I could never carry you."
Ahu smiled bitterly and laughed: "Look at me now, I am taller than this, taller than that. Others are the 'three tallers', but I am several taller. My whole body is covered with gout. If you don't pay attention, the pain will make you doubt your life. Can you be good?
Walking and eating well are already a good thing. What you usually eat should not be too fatty or too sweet. Sometimes you spend too much time thinking about whether you can eat it and just throw it away. It is not interesting at all. "
"If everyone can be a hero for a lifetime, how can there be a world for young people?" Cheng Tianyuan frowned and said: "We must admit - we are all old. Old, not only in terms of age, but also in body.
Due to aging and degeneration, various organs are like old machines and need to be repaired and repaired from time to time. There are many problems and the work efficiency is still poor."
"We are getting old..." Ahu squinted and sighed, "I have to admit that we are all old. Every time I see little tiger, I can't help but want to laugh. Children are our continuation, and our grandchildren are our children.
The continuation of this tradition is passed down slowly from generation to generation. And when we get old, we have to admit that we are really old even if we don’t want to admit it.”
"I don't admit it." Cheng Tianyuan explained: "I am indeed old, but I don't dare to mention it in front of my mother and father-in-law. We all admit that we are old, but what about them? It is true that the body is old, but the mentality is still the same.
You need to be more correct. Lingling has also retreated in the past two years. She barely takes care of things and generally controls the direction. There are old people at the top, and they are all very old, and young people at the bottom. They seem to have grown up, but in fact
We are still unable to support ourselves. Therefore, this big family still has to rely on us to support it."
"It will be different in ten years." Ah Hu said: "The younger generation will be able to get up."
Cheng Tianyuan nodded and agreed: "It should work."
When Ah Hu said this, his eyes turned red unconsciously.
"I don't know if my poor health is hereditary. When I was young, I was in good health, but Wang Qing was not very good at it. She got sick from time to time. Later, we were worried that she would suffer too much, so we didn't dare to have too many children. It was just the right time.
When I was in my prime, my body began to collapse, and it gradually became a medicine bottle. I thought I was unlucky enough, but I didn’t expect..."
"It doesn't matter much." Cheng Tianyuan whispered: "The main reason is that Xiao Huzi's living habits are not good. He always takes advantage of his youth to act recklessly. He eats whatever he wants, eats a lot of junk food, and has a messy schedule. He often
He can stay up all night. If he is tossing like that, no matter how good his body is, he will collapse in a few years. Fortunately, he is still young. If he corrects himself in time, he can still recover in the future. You are different. You have all the diseases of the elderly.
You can rely on prevention and nourishment.”
Ahu sighed again and took another sip of wine.
"His behavior is a wake-up call for the young people in the family, and they should take warning. You should tell the juniors not to imitate him."
Cheng Tianyuan patted his shoulder and said warmly: "Little Huzi will be fine."
Ahu smiled, with tears in his eyes.
"Brother... when I first heard the news, I was completely stunned. I was suddenly... very scared, really scared."
Cheng Tianyuan nodded and squeezed his shoulder hard.
He and Lingling have also experienced this kind of mood, not to mention that they are father and son who are closely related by flesh and blood!
"Don't think too much. Have a few sips and go back to your room to sleep."
Ahu glanced at the antique clock in the corner and muttered: "It's only after nine o'clock."
Cheng Tianyuan reminded: "It's been dark outside for several hours. It's very cold. Wouldn't it be comfortable to get in bed and hide earlier?"
"...I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep." Ahu smiled bitterly: "The longer I lay down, the more uncomfortable I became."
Cheng Tianyuan clinked glasses with him and whispered: "Drink the rest. I'll eat something and watch TV with you."
Ah Hu didn't dare to drink too much because he didn't want his body to be unable to hold on at this juncture.
When his son was about to enter the operating room, he wanted to hold the little tiger in his arms and cheer him on, giving him support and confidence.
After a while, the two of them were sitting in the living room eating melon seeds and watching TV.
Ahu spit out the melon seed shell and said: "Brother, after Xiao Huzi recovers from the hospital, Wang Qing and I plan to move to the Imperial Capital. I have discussed it with her, and she has agreed."
Cheng Tianyuan raised his eyebrows and then said: "Okay. I have advised you to come here a long time ago, but you have been lingering."
Ahu curled his lips and explained: "There are lots of properties in the provincial capital, and I plan to leave them all to regular intermediaries. Nowadays, mobile phone transfers are so convenient, and you can know them all with just a few clicks on the screen. The provincial capital is not my hometown.
Rongcheng is the real one. Anyway, we are just passing by. A place with family is a home. My daughter will graduate next year and will be able to do an internship after the Chinese New Year. It happens that she also wants to find a job here. Both my son and daughter come here, their hometown
Now that I’m gone, and there are only a few people in the family, it’s natural that we have to move closer together. It’s better for the family to stay together.”
Cheng Tianyuan understood the mood of the couple very well at this time.
As I get older, I want to be closer to my children so that I can take care of each other and have more opportunities to entertain my grandchildren. I don’t want to live too lonely.
"Buy a house nearby and live in it, or live in a garden. We can keep each other company."
Ahu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Let's choose a place between Xiaohuzi's villa and their garden. There are all high-end courtyard houses and old Western-style buildings near you, and we can't afford it now."
"Let Xiao Huzi pay for it." Cheng Tianyuan said, "You only live together as two people, you don't need to be big. I'll ask Lingling to help you find out."
