At this time, Ahu hurried out, holding three big cups in his hands.
"Come in! It's very windy outside! I'll take you to the stove! Come on, have something warm to drink first!"
Cheng Tianyuan stood up and pulled Chen Min up from the grass.
Then, one person took a water glass, followed Ahu into the house, and went straight to the small yard at the back.
The so-called small courtyard actually only has one side facing outside, and the rest is designed with small windows on the wall.
Ahu laughed and introduced: "My daughter bought this online as a gift to me. Look! Is it big enough? It can burn wood, charcoal, barbecue, and make a fire. It has many functions!"
Cheng Tianyuan praised: "It looks great! As soon as the fire was lit, it warmed up immediately."
Ah Hu lit firewood and asked with a smile: "There are meat and vegetables in the small refrigerator. How about we get some for barbecue? And some wine -"
"Don't!" Cheng Tianyuan stopped him and glared at him, "You can't drink, have you forgotten? Blood pressure is prone to instability in winter, why don't you take it easy. Wang Qing will find out soon and will scold you to death!"
Chen Min shook his head and said, "What time is it? If you keep fussing for a while, it might be dawn. Your blood pressure has always been unstable, so I don't want any wine."
"Hehehehe!" Ahu said with a smile: "I...I haven't drunk in a while, and I'm very greedy. Let's drink some red wine. The alcohol content is very low, so it shouldn't be a problem. Aren't you guys here? Okay.
Help me block Ah Qing."
Cheng Tianyuan twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "I'll go home and sleep in a while."
Ahu hurriedly asked for help and looked at Chen Min.
Chen Min did not dare to meet his eyes and pretended to look at the stove.
"I...I can't drink before going to bed, don't drag me into this. I have to go to the hospital tomorrow. I can help you for a while, but I can't help you for a whole day. Is it possible that my sister-in-law can spare you?"
Ahu was so sad that he had no choice but to hold back this thought.
"The winter nights in the Imperial Capital are so long. It will take at least seven hours before dawn. How can we not have some wine to cheer up the long night? The last time we three brothers chatted and drank and fell asleep - it seems like it has been several years!"
Chen Min thought about it carefully and answered: "It seems to be more than ten years ago. At that time, A Yuan's villa in Chengjia Village was built and ready to move into. The whole family went back to Chengjia Village to celebrate. Brother Ahu and I brought a lot of
I brought my stuff and a box of beer. That night we drank and talked. I don’t know how long we drank, but we drank until we fell asleep.”
"Yes, yes!" Ahu also remembered it, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's been more than ten years in a flash! How does life fly by so fast! It takes ten years for us to get together, it's not easy! We have to drink tonight.
A small cup, otherwise I would be sorry for such a great opportunity."
Chen Min laughed and scolded: "After all, I still have to drink! Just give up on this!"
Cheng Tianyuan drank hot water and said warmly: "Let's just sit around the stove and have a chat. Don't mess around. Today is no better than it used to be, and our bodies are far worse than they were ten years ago. If we stay up late and drink, we may have children tomorrow."
We have to take us to the hospital."
"Nonsense!"
"Bah, bah, bah!"
"Hahaha!"
Chen Min couldn't help but feel envious and said: "Brother Ahu, how wonderful it is for you to live in the imperial capital now! You are close to your son, you can play with your grandson every day, and you can become neighbors with Ayuan and the others. Life is lively and happy. Back then, you and I
My sister-in-law chose to come here, and I thought it was good from the beginning, and I wholeheartedly agreed with you coming here. My children are all in the imperial capital, and you come to the imperial capital too, so that you can take care of each other. As we get older, it is the happiest thing to have grandchildren."
"Yes!" Ahu said with a smile: "As I get older, my body will suffer from minor problems every day. When I am good, I don't think much about it, just take it one day at a time. When my health starts to fail, I can't help but think about it occasionally.
Children and grandchildren. There are only so many people in the family, so it is not good for them to go to different places. Now that we are together, we have our own things to do and our own space to stay. We can get together at any time when there is nothing to do. This kind of situation is definitely not a traffic situation.
No matter how good or convenient it is, it can be solved! No matter how fast the plane is, it’s impossible for my son and daughter to just sit down and accompany us every three to five days, right?"
"Hmm." Chen Min looked at Cheng Tianyuan aside and said, "Look at Ayuan and the others. They can't even bear to let their son or daughter go to college!"
Cheng Tianyuan smiled and explained: "Actually, the biggest reason is that the educational resources in the imperial capital are very good, one of the best in the country, so naturally you don't have to go all the way to go to school. In addition, several children are also home-loving, and none of them
I want to go far away. They don't go far, so Lingling and I have a lot of worries and troubles. I hope we can be like Ahu and the others. When we get old and sick, they can take care of us nearby."
Ahu knocked on the fire stick and laughed.
"The main thing is that you children are not rebellious. If one or two are disobedient, they may have fled abroad early. Also, they must not hate the elderly, especially the married wives."
Chen Min echoed: "Yes, many young people now don't like to live with their parents-in-law and elders. Not all, but a lot of them, which can be regarded as a major trend among young families."
Ahu came over and lowered his voice: "If this courtyard is not big enough, we and our daughter live on one side, and our son lives on the other side. Aqingtie and I will rent or buy a house nearby. Today's young people are like us
The older generation has different ideas. They don’t want a big family to live together in a lively and lively place. They prefer to pay attention to their private life and pay attention to that... personal space."
"That's right." Cheng Tianyuan whispered: "Ling Ling also talked to me before, saying that we and a few old people can live together. That is because our generation's thinking is still traditional. But if we think this way, we cannot ask young people to do the same.
She has to be like us. Therefore, she arranged the wedding rooms for several children early in the morning. They are not far from here and can be reached on foot. The second child is a bit ahead of schedule. The wedding room has not been decorated yet, and Xiaoxiao is pregnant with her.
Children, so they are temporarily arranged to live at home. But Lingling has already taken them to see the wedding room, and told them that it is up to them to move out whenever they want. At present, it seems that the nearest one may be Xiaoxin... If she goes well
If you marry Shinzhi, it will only take a minute or two to walk."
"That's right!" Ah Hu gestured with his hands: "That end is A Yuan's son-in-law's courtyard! The place is more than twice as big as this one, big, wide and beautiful!"
Chen Min was filled with envy and said: "That's great! This is a typical example of a well-matched family marrying at the doorstep. If a daughter marries far away, she can only return to her parents' home every three to several years. In fact, it is almost the same as losing her daughter. Like Xiaoxin,
It can't be too good, you are right under your nose every day, and you don't have to worry about what kind of injustice your daughter will suffer."
"Alas..." Cheng Tianyuan twitched the corner of his mouth and sighed: "I have said it again and again. Xiaoxin is still the one I am most worried about. Even if she marries at home, she still has a lot of worries."
