Cheng Tianyuan seemed to have already made up his mind and replied: "I won't go back until the last moment."
Ahu raised his eyebrows and whispered: "It should... It will take a long time. There is no need to rush."
Cheng Tianyuan sighed faintly: "Anyway, I promised her that she would return to her hometown before she died, hold a glorious funeral for her, and let her be buried with my father and stay together forever.
But it’s not time to go back yet.”
"Can't go back."
Ahu echoed: "It's a cold day, and there's no heating in Rongcheng. It's cold inside the house even if it's cold outside.
The villa is large, and it is not easy to warm a room.
How can an old man with such a physical condition be able to endure it?"
Cheng Tianyuan whispered uncomfortably: "I just didn't expect her condition to deteriorate so quickly... If she hadn't been able to eat and sleep well, I... might have had to go back to my hometown to clean up."
"it's okay no problem."
Ahu consoled her: "Godmother, she is just in a trance. She can walk around with a cane on her own.
Her face looks pretty good, and her body and bones are almost the same as before."
Cheng Tianyuan lowered his voice: "Ling Ling said, Mom has lost a lot of weight these days."
Xue Ling and the nurse helped give the old man a bath and were very aware of the old man's actual physical condition.
The old man has been wearing a lot since autumn. Others can't see it clearly, but Xue Ling knows it clearly.
Ahu frowned and whispered: "... I guess it's because the weather is too cold. I stayed in the house and living room all day and didn't go outside. My appetite is not as good as before."
"Um."
Cheng Tianyuan replied: "At this age, there is no way she can withstand the cold outside. The heater is on every day. I dare not let her go out."
Ahu couldn't help complaining: "However, winter in the Imperial Capital is really cold!"
"It's really cold."
Cheng Tianyuan has long been used to it, "There is heating here, so it doesn't always feel cold.
If I go back to Rongcheng, I will definitely not be able to help the old man keep the temperature in the house constant."
Ahu smiled bitterly: "Amin made a video call with me two days ago and said that the river is not frozen, but the temperature is really low. Once I touch my hand, it hurts to the point of piercing the bones. It is extremely cold.
The eldest nephew bought him an electric blanket and a small sun and let him stay in the house.
Fortunately, ducks have strong resistance to freezing, so they can still eat, drink, and sleep without them having to look hard."
Cheng Tianyuan asked with concern: "How is Amin doing now?
By the way, will my eldest nephew continue to go to school?"
"No."
Ahu replied: "He said he is very happy making money now and does not need a formal school diploma to prove his ability.
The boy's short video of raising ducks has become popular. Last month, major platforms gave him an income of more than 40,000 yuan! Amin was so happy! He specially made a roast duck to celebrate his son. Father and son
Both were drunk.
I told Amin that the purpose of studying is to make money anyway, and now that boy can make money, he doesn’t need to go to another school, so let’s forget it.”
"It makes some sense."
Cheng Tianyuan smiled: "The most important thing is to be in good health, both physically and mentally.
This is more important than anything else.”
"Yeah!"
Ahu said with a smile: "He is very optimistic now and confident.
Amin couldn't believe it himself, saying that a year ago that kid was so depressed that he committed suicide by jumping into a river, but now he seemed completely different.
Amin said, as long as the child has a good character and is healthy, a diploma is nothing."
Cheng Tianyuan said warmly: "Let them, father and son, work hard! Try to repay the loan together next spring."
"Already paid."
Ah Hu explained: “I sold a batch of ducks last quarter and will pay them back together after liquidation.
Amin said that he owes us both now and hopes to pay it off next year or the year after."
"No need to rush."
Cheng Tianyuan smiled: "We don't need it anyway, let them make a good profit and don't be in a hurry to pay it back."
Ah Hu lowered his voice: "The equipment has been purchased. We only need to buy some duck feed, and the cost does not cost much.
As long as you can survive the early stage and repay the capital, everything else will be profits.
Amin said, I hope next year and the year after will be smoother, and we can pay off the debts owed to you and me.
I also told him there was no rush, since I don’t have anything to spend money on right now anyway.”
"wrong."
Cheng Tianyuan reminded: "If your little sister succeeds in love this time, you will have to give her a dowry!"
Ahu burst out laughing: "Yes, yes! If it's a dowry, I'll be happy to give it!"
Cheng Tianyuan gave him a glass of fruit wine and whispered: "The second glass can only be the last glass."
"Don't bother me!"
Ah Hu muttered with dissatisfaction: "It takes me several months to have a few sips, and the alcohol content of this stuff is really not high, so it's just to appease my alcohol addiction."
Cheng Tianyuan told the truth: "I'm just trying to make you addicted to alcohol. Do you really want to drink enough?
Aren't you afraid that Wang Qing will scold you tonight?
Aren’t you afraid that the little tiger will nag you?”
"Forget it!"
Ahu smiled bitterly and took a small sip carefully, "I have to drink this cup slowly."
Cheng Tianyuan sat on the bench at the bar and whispered: "In the past few months, Ling Ling has been busy at home and outside.
If it weren't for her, my mother's situation would definitely be worse."
Ah Hu couldn't help but nod: "My sister-in-law is very filial to her godmother, and she doesn't have to be picky.
Didn't the doctor say anything?
Fortunately, the family has always been lively and there are many people accompanying the old man, otherwise the godmother's condition would have deteriorated faster."
Cheng Tianyuan broke the peanuts and explained: "I have discussed with Lingling. I will go back to my hometown in the spring of next year. I will find someone to clean the villa inside and outside, then change the large room on the first floor into two, and then renovate the kitchen. .
The room was renovated into a room for the elderly, and two empty rooms were installed for emergencies."
"Uh-huh."
Ahu frowned and said, "Although some things sound a little unpleasant to say, you still have to make some preparations.
When my father died, I was still young and didn’t understand anything.
When my mother passed away, I had to make all the arrangements, and I had made a lot of arrangements in advance, so I couldn’t be in a hurry, right?"
Cheng Tianyuan lowered his eyes and said: "Lingling said the same thing... I still have to run first this time."
Ahu reminded: "I can accompany you then.
If you are too busy with something, you can ask Amin to help."
"No."
Cheng Tianyuan refused: "You don't have to go with me, I'm just going to repair the old villa.
If it goes quickly, it will take more than half a month, if it goes slowly, I should be able to come back in a month."
Ahu couldn't help but tease: "What's wrong?
Do you think I’m old and can’t do the work anymore?”
"I can't do it either."
Cheng Tianyuan told the truth: “We have to rely on workers to do it, so we can’t save money.
Don't go with me, come over here to stay with my mother and share the burden for Lingling.
My mother is anxious now that she hasn’t been seen for a while.”
