After the couple finished discussing the ranch, when they went downstairs, grandma and mother had already prepared the meal.
"It's good to have my parents around. I eat ready-made meals," Zhang Chi said with a smile.
Melika next to her felt that there was something in her husband's words, so she smiled and said, "If you like, you can let your parents stay here forever."
Zhang Chi didn't think much about it. He just said it casually. When he heard his wife say this to him, he smiled and said: "It's impossible. They won't get used to the life here. No matter how convenient it is, it's not as good as their hometown. It's hard to leave their hometown."
ah".
Melika smiled.
When Miao Guifang saw her grandson and granddaughter-in-law coming down, she immediately smiled and said to them, "wash yourself and get ready to eat."
Zhang Chi and Melika responded.
Zhang Chi said: "Just now Melika said she would let you live here."
"I don't dare to stay too long. There are a lot of things going on at home. Not to mention anything else, your third aunt will take care of the two pigs. It's enough for a month or two. How can they continue to take care of you?" Miao Guifang
He said immediately after hearing it.
The old lady felt very conflicted about this matter. She wanted to stay and watch the birth of her great-granddaughter, but she was also a little concerned about family matters.
"Thank you, Xiaomei, but we really can't stay for long. We will go back together when your sister starts school. All things considered, we can live there for a long time," Li Xiumei also said.
Everyone was clearing the table and getting ready to eat, while chatting about random things.
After waiting for the dishes and chopsticks to be placed and the meal to go to bed, Zhang Jiaren and Zhang Youpeng, father and son, arrived belatedly.
When the whole family sits around the table and eats, it's a lively experience.
At night, everyone went back to the house to rest. Li Xiumei returned to the house and saw Zhang Youpeng, who was half lying on the bed, staring at the TV.
"Look, look, look, I just watch TV all day long." Li Xiumei was a little angry and started to get angry at her husband.
Zhang Youpeng looked confused. He was thinking that his wife was fine just now, so as soon as she walked to the bathroom, her face suddenly changed.
Could it be that the old constipation happened again?
Zhang Youpeng thought that his wife's old habit might have happened again.
It doesn't seem right when I think about it again. I haven't heard about this for a long time.
"Have you brought any medicine? I'll go look for it for you." Zhang Youpeng said and stood up. For a moment, he couldn't think of any other problem, so he just thought it was coming again.
Li Xiumei said: "What are you looking for? What medicine? Why do you want me to be sick?"
"Look at how you get so angry for no reason!" Zhang Youpeng said to his wife with a smile.
Zhang Youpeng has a good attitude and will not stand up to his wife no matter how much trouble she makes. The angrier he is, the brighter the smile on his face will be. After a while, his wife's anger will naturally dissipate.
If he resisted, the two of them would have to have a fight. Over the years, life has long since wiped away all the edges and corners of his life, leaving only his life experience and the patience to deal with his family.
"You don't want to think about things at home and just wander around all day long," Li Xiumei said.
When Zhang Youpeng heard this, he immediately understood that there must be something going on, but he didn't know what it was, so he immediately asked: "Why, what's going on?"
Li Xiumei was actually waiting for his words. She opened her mouth and said: "When Dachi and Xiaomei went downstairs today, they said they wanted mom and me to live here for a while. I didn't feel it at first, but later I
Think about whether the children feel they need our company. Dachi and Xiaomei are the first children and have little experience. I think it is better to leave one person here to accompany them..."
Hearing what his wife said, Zhang Youpeng suddenly realized it. After thinking about it for a while, he understood and said, "You are really thinking too much. Xiaomei is protected by a doctor. You didn't listen to what Dachi said. In a few months, the doctor will
There will be regular check-ups and door-to-door consultations. Don’t you think you and your mother are better than other doctors?
You, you are overthinking, your two children are guarding such a big property now, how can you be reluctant to hire a doctor for our little granddaughter!"
"I still feel something is wrong."
Some things cannot be figured out. The more you think about it, the more problems you will have. It is originally a simple sentence. If you think about it, you may be able to figure out the comet hitting the earth.
"It's not good for us not to be around when our little granddaughter is born," Li Xiumei said.
Zhang Youpeng laughed happily: "What time is it now? It's almost the Chinese New Year when I'm waiting for my little granddaughter to be born. Didn't Dajuan say that she will come over when she has time during the Chinese New Year? Let's come together then."
Li Xiumei thought for a while and felt that it was right. Her daughter-in-law's belly hadn't grown yet, so it would be too early for her granddaughter to be born.
"Okay, okay, don't think about it. I really want you to stay here with me. Do you think your son won't tell you directly when did his straight son do any tricks?" Zhang Youpeng said happily.
Li Xiumei felt a little relieved now. She came to the bed and took off the blanket and lay down. The couple sat on the bed and watched TV.
After a while, Li Xiumei said: "By this time next year, when we come here again, maybe my granddaughter will be able to take small steps and call her grandparents...".
Zhang Youpeng was really amused by his wife. This time next year, the little granddaughter will be only half a year old. Why is she running around calling her grandparents?
My daughter-in-law is almost overjoyed by this.
But Zhang Youpeng didn't say anything, so it was not the same in his heart. Suddenly he heard that Xiaomei was pregnant. Zhang Youpeng felt that the sky was getting clearer and he would soon have a granddaughter.
When mentioning the little granddaughter he had never met, Zhang Youpeng asked his wife: "Hey, do you think the little granddaughter has black hair and eyes, or does she look like Xiaomei?"
"She's still as good-looking as Xiaomei." Li Xiumei blurted out without thinking, thinking that her granddaughter is like a daughter-in-law.
Zhang Youpeng also nodded: "Well, it's better to look like Xiaomei. A girl looks like her father."
When he thought of his son's appearance, Zhang Youpeng shook his head and didn't dare to think about it.
"He looks like our son. It's not good for a girl to be too tall." Li Xiumei thought of her daughter-in-law's height and immediately rushed to make up for her granddaughter's shortcomings.
If my granddaughter grows too tall, it will be difficult for her to get married. Which boy can grow so tall?
As soon as the couple chatted about their little granddaughter, their interest suddenly rose, and they didn't feel sleepy even while chatting.
Zhang Youpeng and Li Xiumei were chatting, and Miao Guifang and Zhang Jiaren, an old couple who originally slept in separate rooms, also came together.
The two of them were not talking about their unborn great-granddaughter, but Zhang Jiaren felt that he should find something to do, otherwise he would have no way to spend the next month or so.
Visiting the ranch? I have already finished visiting the ranch in the past few days. Not to mention this small ranch, Zhang Jiaren has also been to the large ranch over there more than once.
So Zhang Jiaren stayed in his room for a while, then ran over to discuss with his wife what kind of work he was suitable for.
The old man can't sit still. It was okay to take a break at the beginning, but now after resting for several days, the old man feels uncomfortable all over and his whole body is a little loose.
"You are really a pig that can't eat fine chaff!"
When Miao Guifang heard her wife say this, she teased her.
"Alas, I don't have such a blessed life," Zhang Jiaren sighed.
"Otherwise, ask Dachi tomorrow morning to see if there is any work suitable for you in the ranch and arrange some. If the child says there is none, you can try to find some work on your own," Miao Guifang said.
Zhang Jiaren thought so, so he settled the matter.
The old couple had nothing to talk about, so after finishing this conversation they went back to their respective houses.
After watching TV for a while, Miao Guifang turned off the TV and went to sleep, but Zhang Jiaren was different. He listened to the TV and fell asleep. He woke up as soon as the TV was turned off. He could stay asleep without turning off the TV.
Fortunately, Zhang Chi doesn't care. The ranch can't even use up all the electricity it generates, so it's nothing to waste a little electricity.
Melika is not the kind of person who specializes in things. If it were some women, she would be picky and picky all day long. She is obviously not good at it, but she still thinks that others are not good at this or that.
.
If Melika is like this, Zhang Chi probably won't like her either. If she comes back with such a woman, wouldn't she just be looking for trouble for herself?
Everyone in the family has their own way of sleeping and their own habits.
For example, now Xiaoxiao is sleeping soundly with his buttocks naked, holding the ink in his arms, using the ink as a pillow and a quilt.
Mo Zhi also slept very boldly, with his belly facing up, his whole body stretched out like a fried dough stick, and his little snores made him twitch.
Maodou slept on the corner of the bed, with half of his head buried in the pile of blankets. He didn't know whether he was sleeping like this for comfort or to resist the noise in the room.
Everyone slept contentedly, so when they woke up early the next morning, although they slept for different lengths of time, everyone was full of energy and energy.
Zhang Chi and his wife are usually among the penultimate group of people who wake up.
Oh, that’s not right. To be precise, Zhang Chi was the second to last one to wake up, Melika was the first to last one, and Xiao Xiao was the one to compete with her.
But Melika opened her eyes a little early today, so she opened her eyes as soon as Zhang Chi came.
"It's still early".
Seeing that his wife was awake, Zhang Chi said something.
Melika did not go back to sleep as usual. She said to Zhang Chi: "You should take your sister Xiaoxiao to buy clothes today. I will probably be embarrassed to follow my sister."
Zhang Chi thought it was right after hearing this, so he nodded: "Okay, that's it, you continue to sleep, I will talk to my sister later."
At this time, Melika continued to lie back on the bed, pulled the blanket to her eyebrows, and continued to sleep.
Zhang Chi put on his clothes, washed himself and went downstairs.
Miao Guifang and Li Xiumei had already woken up and were making breakfast for the family.
"What are you eating this morning?" Zhang Chi asked casually.
Zhang Chi doesn't care what he eats as long as someone does it.
"Muddlehead".
Miao Guifang smiled at her grandson and said.
Zhang Chi stretched out his head to take a look, and sure enough he found a basin of batter on his grandma's hand, and there were pieces of leek in the batter.
