But it can't block the feelings between relatives. The Zhang family, who haven't seen each other for a long time, happily chatted about the past and savored the current life.
The first one to feel sleepy was Xiao Xiao. The little guy started to feel sleepy after eating and drinking enough. Not only did he feel sleepy, but also Maodou and Momo, who had been running with him for several hours, also started to take a nap.
When Zhang Juan saw that her son was sleepy, she said, "Go back to the house and go to sleep. Come on, it's cold outside."
Originally, Zhangjuan wanted to take her son into the house, but she was chatting happily with her aunt at the moment and didn't want to take her son back to the room, so after saying something to Xiaoxiao, she continued chatting with her aunt Gu Ying.
Xiaoxiao walked towards the house in a daze. Momo and Maodou took a look and followed behind. One had his hands hanging down and the other shrugged his tail. In short, the three guys looked like they could fall asleep anytime and anywhere.
.
Zhang Chi was a little worried, so he stood up and followed him. He watched the little guy enter the house and walk upstairs before retreating.
The adults were very chatty. They ate or drank a sip of beer while chatting. The roasted meat was put back into the oven and heated with the residual heat of the firewood.
We kept chatting like this, and by midnight, all the meat that we thought was impossible to eat was completely gone. Four bottles of beer accompanied the meat into the cycle of grains.
"Hey, it's half past twelve now. Stop talking and go back to the house to rest. I don't know if I think we've talked until this point, and I don't know."
Zhang Jiaren was a little curious when he saw that all the meat was eaten by the big guys. He looked up at the watch on his wrist and realized that before he knew it, everyone had been chatting for five or six hours.
At half past twelve, everyone immediately exclaimed.
"I don't think it's been that long, why is it already half past twelve?" Li Xiumei muttered.
"That's right, it's half past twelve. Don't doubt it. Everyone should go back to the house to rest. We're not leaving tomorrow anyway. If you have anything to say, we'll wait until tomorrow." Miao Guifang followed.
So everyone stood up and packed their things casually.
Zhang Chi said: "Grandma, aunt, please don't clean it up. Just wait until I come to clean it up tomorrow morning."
"There aren't many things, just things that come along."
As soon as Miao Guifang took action, others could not be idle and started to work.
It is true that there is strength in numbers. It only took a few minutes for everyone to work together, and the large outdoor table that was originally a bit messy was restored to cleanliness.
All debris was thrown into the trash can next to it.
Zhang Chi watched everyone go back to the house, while he drove the four-wheeler to transport the garbage can to the entrance of the ranch. To be precise, it was the intersection from the good neighbor's house to his own ranch.
The garbage truck that comes in the morning will collect the garbage.
After returning home, Zhang Chi was about to go upstairs when he met his grandma coming out of the house.
"Grandma, don't you know how to use something?" Zhang Chi asked.
Miao Guifang said: "No, I can use everything. The things here are much simpler than your brother's place. Don't worry, I can use them all. Don't worry."
"Oh, what are you doing?"
Miao Guifang said: "I want to find a thermos bottle and bring some water to the room. I need to drink some water when I wake up at night."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chi immediately said: "Grandma, no need, you can drink the water as soon as you turn on the faucet here. I have a water filter here."
"I want to drink warm water," Miao Guifang said.
Zhang Chi walked over, helped grandma back into the house, took her to the water dispenser in the house, and began to teach grandma how to make the water dispenser produce hot water.
This thing is very simple. There are only three buttons on the entire water dispenser, one for cold water and one for hot water. The knob in the middle can control the water temperature. There are five levels corresponding to different temperatures. Zhang Chi opened it and asked grandma to try which temperature.
She liked it best, so she directly set the knob at that temperature.
"Well, that's great, that's great, even the thermos bottle is no longer needed." Miao Guifang figured it out, and she thought it was too convenient.
Zhang Chi smiled and said: "Grandma, this is much more expensive than a hot water bottle. By the way, is the bed here comfortable to sleep on?"
"It's very good. It's more comfortable than the bed in Dawen. I thought it was too expensive for a child like Dawen. I don't know that we can't sleep on such a soft bed in our poor life. It's really good here," Miao Guifang said
.
The elderly have been sleeping on hard beds all their lives. They really can't sleep on a soft bed that is almost completely covered with ergonomics, personal support, etc. It is completely inconsistent with the habits of the elderly. It would be strange if they were used to sleeping on it.
, If Zhang Chi hadn't used gourd water to support him, it is estimated that all four of Zhang Jiaren would have had to sit on the bed that night.
"Nai, you rest, I'm going back to the house."
Zhang Chi helped her grandma get on the bed, then tucked the blanket around her body, and then said to her.
Miao Guifang said: "Go quickly, why do I want you to serve like this now?"
"Then I turn off the lights?"
Zhang Chi came to the door of the room and said.
"Um".
"Turn off the lights!"
Zhang Chi said something and the lights were turned off.
As soon as the lights in the room went out, it immediately became dark. Miao Guifang thought in her mind: It is so convenient to turn off the lights.
After thinking about it, I felt sleepy coming over me and fell into a deep sleep.
After coming out of grandma's room, Zhang Chi went to the door of grandpa's room, opened the door gently, and heard grandpa's even little snoring, so he gently closed the door.
He walked around the door of his parents' room and found that his parents had also taken a rest. As for his uncle and aunt's room, Zhang Chi naturally wouldn't go there. They weren't staying here the first night, so Zhang Chi didn't need to worry.
When they got upstairs, Zhang Chi was about to go back to his room when he suddenly heard a light coming from the door of his sister's room, so he walked over.
When I arrived at the door of my sister's room, I found that the door was open. My sister was sitting on the chaise longue in the room with her mobile phone, half lying with her legs crossed, chatting with her brother-in-law on her mobile phone.
Zhang Chi didn't hear what the person on the phone said, but there was no one else besides his brother-in-law. If his sister was chatting with another man at this point, then Zhang Chi felt that he might have to call someone else his brother-in-law.
He opened the door and stuck his head into the room: "Sister, are you still not sleeping?"
"Xiao Chi, why don't you go to bed?" Zhang Juan said with a smile.
While speaking, Zhang Chi turned the phone around and saw his brother-in-law's brain on the screen.
"Brother-in-law" Zhang Chi raised his hand.
Sun Yanping didn't hear it and didn't know what he muttered, but Zhang Juan scolded him.
"Where's Xiaoxiao?"
Zhang Chi was about to leave, but he accidentally took a look and found that the bed was flat and even the bedspread was removed, so he asked casually.
"He slept on the opposite side. Together with his friends, we told him to sleep here. He was not happy with it," Zhang Juan said.
Xiaoxiao's little friend? Zhang Chi understood it as soon as he thought about it. After laughing twice, he said to his sister: "Go to bed early. Didn't you say that you still want to learn horse riding in the morning?"
"I'll go to bed later. Your brother-in-law is so annoying that he insists on catching me to ask about the situation here. A person who loves to join in the fun can't join in the fun now. I'm so scratching my head."
Zhang Juan knew that her husband was actually a person who loved to join in the fun. Now that he couldn't join in the fun, she didn't know how anxious she was.
"Just ask him to come here quickly," Zhang Chi said, then retracted his head.
After helping his sister close the door, Zhang Chi came to the opposite side, pushed open the door and gently touched the switch at the door. The light came on. The warm and warm light was not very bright, but he could already see the room clearly.
Xiao Chi was already asleep, and he was very sleepy. His whole body was lying on his stomach, half of his body was lying on the bed, and the other half was lying on Mo Zhi's body.
At this moment, Mo Zhi was also sleeping with his arms and legs spread out, grinning widely when Zhang Chi came in.
On the reverse side, Edamame sleeps in a good position, rolled up into a ball and attached to Xiaoxiao's butt.
"You're really good!"
Zhang Chi thinks Xiaoxiao is really talented.
Why?
If you have ever raised a cat at home, you will know that it makes a purring sound when it sleeps. The bigger the cat, the louder the sound. Think about what Ink is, the largest cat in North America. You will know that when Ink sleeps
Look at how loud that purring sound is.
It took some effort for Zhang Chi to accept this thing, but looking at Xiao Xiao, there seemed to be no obstacles at all. With his forehead and ink pressed together, he was sleeping soundly.
Turning off the lights and closing the door, Zhang Chi returned to his bedroom. At this moment, Melika had already fallen asleep. Zhang Chi quietly entered the bathroom, took a shower and washed himself before returning to the room.
On the bed.
I didn't dare to turn on the big light, I just turned on the small lamp on the bedside table, and then turned off the small lamp after getting into bed.
Zhang Chi got into the blanket and soon fell asleep.
When he opened it again, he glanced at the alarm clock beside the bed and found that it was already six o'clock in the morning. Although he had only slept for five hours, Zhang Chi was still full of energy after entering a deep sleep.
If he hadn't remembered that his grandparents had come over, Zhang Chi could have fallen asleep, but obviously he couldn't sleep anymore today.
Melica was still sleeping. As a pregnant woman, it was normal for her to sleep.
Get up gently, wash up and change clothes.
Zhang Chi went downstairs and heard quiet voices coming from the living room.
Let's take a look downstairs. Okay! Except for me and my wife, everyone else has gotten up early. Now my grandparents, aunts, parents, and sisters are all sitting in the living room chatting quietly.
"Don't you want to sleep a little longer?"
Seeing Zhang Chi coming downstairs, Miao Guifang asked.
"Why don't you guys sleep a little longer? You went to bed so late last night and got up at this time today," Zhang Chi said.
Zhang Jiaren said: "As I get older, I sleep less and open my eyes at five o'clock."
"Then don't sit in the house, get up and go for a walk," Zhang Chi said.
Zhang Youliang said: "We are getting ready to go. We are thinking about whether we should cook something to eat or come back to eat after walking."
Zhang Chi understood after thinking about it that this must be because he had considered Melika. He didn't know when she would wake up and when she should make breakfast.
"Let's just do our own thing and wait until she wakes up before we talk about anything else. I don't know when she will wake up," Zhang Chi said with a smile.
