Sanbo took a warm hot bath, stretched his limbs comfortably, and walked out.
Cheng Tianyuan poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to the old man.
"Uncle San, sit down and watch TV."
"Thank you!" Sanbo leaned on the sofa and squinted his presbyopic eyes: "I always hate to leave when I come to your place. I really like the atmosphere of your home and the lively atmosphere."
Xue Ling's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked at each other with his two cousins. They both knew each other well.
The two daughters-in-law of the third uncle were not filial to the elderly. They bickered all day long and always passed the responsibility of supporting and caring for the elderly to each other.
Fortunately, San Bo has his own retirement salary and is still in good health, so he doesn't have to rely on them.
But if one day I get sick or something else, I'm afraid there will be no one to take care of me at bedside.
The third uncle sighed quietly and said in a low voice: "Other people say that there is no filial son in front of the bed after a long illness, but I am not yet sick, and my filial son has already disappeared."
Xue Huan smiled and handed over a candied date.
"Don't be too pessimistic. My cousins are very good to you. After all, my sisters-in-law are not daughters, so it is understandable that they are not too considerate. My cousins were all raised by you, so you should have confidence in them."
The third uncle shook his head: "But it can't be compared to the pillow wind! Their wives are too strong and powerful. They are all strict with their wives. They can't control their wives and dare not. I teach them to be honest and kind.
Brothers and sisters should be respectful to each other, and they should be filial to their elders. But they have all forgotten now. From doting on their wives at the beginning to being afraid of them, they gradually just became 'afraid of their wives', and then they forgot everything else."
He usually cooks three meals by himself and occasionally eats in the hospital canteen.
I wash my own clothes, clean my own courtyard, and do everything myself.
I just wanted to have a New Year's Eve dinner with my children and grandchildren as a family, but instead I got two daughters-in-law making a lot of noise and swearing!
Instead of watching them taunting each other with dark faces, while their two sons and several grandchildren buried their heads in silence, it would be better for him to eat by himself and be more comfortable, at least without being angry to death!
He didn’t know how it could develop like this!
"I have my own income, and I try my best to take care of my two sons. But the fingers have different lengths, and it is impossible for each one to be exactly the same. But as a father, I think that every son feels the same pain. The palms of my hands and the backs of my hands are all the same.
It’s my flesh, how can I be partial to one? Who should I favor? The elders say I favor the younger ones. The younger ones say I favor the older ones. We have been separated for so many years, and we still always take the old ones.
Isn’t it interesting to come out to make noises and make noises during the old antique time? In what era do we have to worry about this?”
The old man frowned irritably: "Don't bother me, just give me some peace and quiet. My old man's life will be easier. I kicked them all out today. I also said that there won't be any gatherings at home in the future. How will they live their lives?"
No matter how you live, it has nothing to do with my old man from now on."
Xue Heng rolled his eyes and whispered: "Third uncle, every family has difficulty reciting sutras... I am sure your family is not the only one with such conflicts."
"Yes, I understand this." San Bo smiled slightly and asked, "A Heng, can you tell me what sutras are difficult to recite in your family?"
Xue Heng thought for a while and replied: "We don't have children yet, so we are too slow."
"It makes sense." Sanbo said warmly: "It's been three years, right? It's really a bit slow."
Xue Huan couldn't help but whisper: "Brother, why don't you ask your third uncle to prescribe some Chinese medicine for you to help you conceive? The kind that regulates the body is always good for the body, and it's okay to drink it."
"Okay." Xue Heng hurriedly looked to San Bo for help.
Sanbo smiled: "You can send me back in a few days and I will open it for you."
After a pause, the old man added: "It might be more effective if both your wife and you could come and let me check your pulse."
Xue Heng was stunned for a moment, then whispered awkwardly: "Afang, she must not be willing... She said to let nature take its course. She is busy with work now and is not in a hurry to have a child."
"You don't know how to persuade your sister-in-law?"
Cheng Tianyuan glared at Xue Heng and said: "If you don't want children, forget it. If you want children, you can't push them again and again. Although Uncle Zhilan and Aunt Zhilan didn't say it, they were already anxious in their hearts.
.”
"How can you not have children?" Xue Heng murmured: "I am not a DINK. I like children very much."
Sanbo squinted his eyes and smiled softly.
"When I was reading the newspaper, I noticed that some foreigners were suddenly called DINKs, and there seemed to be some 'unmarried people'. What happened to young people nowadays? Although children may be unfilial, it is human instinct to continue life.
If everyone does DINK, won't there be no one on the earth soon? Our lives are not eternal. No matter how long-lived the old man is, he is only a little over a hundred years old, but we can have children and grandchildren, and grandchildren
Give birth to sons and grandsons, and the descendants and grandsons will continue to multiply in this way.”
Xue Ling nodded in agreement: "Humans are a part of nature. We must adapt to the laws of nature so that we will not live an uncomfortable life in the future. I don't like being alone. When I got married, I secretly made up my mind to live with Brother Ayuan.
Give birth to a whole bunch!”
Xue Heng laughed: "Four is not too much, not enough for a large group!"
"Raising children doesn't require a lot of time and energy," Xue Ling explained: "You have to do what you can!"
Xue Huan thought for a while and replied: "Two. The national policy is one child, but I always feel that one child is too lonely. When a person grows up, he will inevitably be too self-centered. One more person means more sharing and disputes.
, it’s still good after all. I will try to get one more applicant in the future.”
"Very good!"
Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help but ask Xue Huan: "Can you apply to be a student? If your spouse also has an employer, it probably won't be possible."
Xue Huan's handsome face turned slightly red and he whispered: "We'll talk about it then..."
Xue Ling on the side secretly suppressed a smile.
San Bo looked at the advertisement on TV and asked in surprise: "I heard that there are mobile phones from foreigners on the market recently. Have you seen it? It's so big! You can carry it everywhere, and you can answer the call as soon as you dial the number. No need to
What wiring."
Xue Ling replied: "I've heard that it's called 'Big Brother'. Each one costs tens of thousands of yuan!"
Everyone was surprised: "Is it so expensive?"
Xue Ling nodded: "It is a little more expensive now, but in the future it will gradually become cheaper, smaller, and have more functions."
"How do you know?" Xue Heng asked curiously.
Xue Ling was slightly stunned and asked: "Is this the trend of scientific and technological progress? Isn't it? Things coming out on the market are becoming more and more novel and cheaper. This is an inevitable law!"
Cheng Tianyuan rubbed his hands: "It sounds very good, but it's too expensive."
His job requires him to keep in touch with customers. Occasionally, when he goes out to load and unload goods, he will miss the customer's phone calls. Fortunately, there are also telephones installed in the warehouse, but it is still not very convenient.
Xue Ling heard it clearly and wrote it down secretly.
Xue Huan clicked his tongue a few times, chuckled and joked: "I only have a salary of about a thousand yuan, plus some subsidies. If you want to buy one, you will probably have to save for two or three years without eating or drinking."
"When brother buys it, I will buy one for you." Xue Heng said boldly.
Xue Huan smiled and shook his head: "I don't need to contact any business. The phone in the department is enough. Buying it for me is a waste. Brother, you have many business contacts, so you have to buy one."
"Hey! The performance dance has begun!" Xue Ling shouted: "The Spring Festival Gala of Imperial TV Station has begun!"
