Marriage in crisis

In the video, my father smiled without answering, like an old fox, while my mother had a proud face, showing the joy of the nouveau riche.

She grabbed my dad's cell phone, leaned close to the camera and whispered to me, "Your dad is indeed forward-looking. The old city was in recession a few years ago, and because of this, too many people moved out of our ancient street. No one wanted to live there." This old street is about to become moldy, especially you young people, who all yearn for bright and spacious high-rise buildings and elevator houses, so the old households on the street are all gone, and large numbers of people are moving away to new areas."

I nodded and agreed, "The key point is that the old street is really too old. If I were here, I would move!"

My mother immediately pouted, "So, this place has become a poor area that no one cares about. It was once called a ghost street."

I smiled and agreed, "Mom, you are right. If young people live in the old streets now, they will have to find a partner. Who would want to marry and live in a bungalow!"

"There are very few people coming to the old street, let alone people coming here to rent a house. It happened that our family still had some spare money at that time, so your father bought a lot of houses like this."

When my mother said this, I saw Deng Jiazhe showing his face behind me, and his eyes clearly lit up.

"You mean, my dad took over the house in Laojie?"

My mother nodded, "I wasn't very happy at the time, because I was constantly quarreling with your dad about this matter. But he was so lucky that he got out of control and bought most of the street in one go. When some people heard about your dad buying it, they all started buying it. I asked someone to find your dad, but the result..."

"Half an old street?" I asked with a questioning look on my face, "You mean, that old street..."

My mother had a very arrogant expression and smiled comfortably and openly, "At that time, all the money was invested in Danfeng, otherwise your father would have bought the whole street. However, if he had bought the whole street at that time, then... …Hi!"

My mother looked regretful and sighed. I saw Deng Jiazhe's expression stiffened, and I probably felt it was a pity!

I looked at my mother in the camera in disbelief, a bit dumbfounded, and wondering in my mind, is what my mother said true?

If it were a real old street...

Let me go, I don't dare to think about it.

However, the next second, my father grabbed the phone and said seriously, "Don't listen to your mother's nonsense, she is still talking. You said last time that the children would come to Sioux City during the summer vacation, right?"

My dad stopped talking and stopped talking. I laughed to myself, what an old fox.

Before I could answer my dad's words, Deng Jiazhe arrived first and said, "Dad, I will definitely go back. I have already told the children. They are all very happy and counting down the seconds! The final is coming soon. After the exam, Just go there on vacation!”

"That's good. We haven't seen them in two years. Dabao has grown taller, right?" my mother asked.

"It's so high!" Deng Jiazhe answered first with a flattering smile.

After that, everyone talked about the parents, and my dad never mentioned the old house again.

After hanging up the video, I was a little stunned, still thinking, is what my mother said true?

Deng Jiazhe also looked very happy and asked Aunt Yang to change a bowl of hot soup for me. He pushed it to me diligently, "Nini, hurry up and drink it while it's hot. Aunt Yang's soup is really good."

I took it silently, drank the soup, and said to Sister-in-law Yang, "Sister-in-law Yang, I have to go out for a while, and I want to trouble you to pick up the third treasure in the evening. I will go directly to pick up the second treasure when I come back."

"Don't worry! The company is fine today. I'll come back early to pick up the children tonight! You don't have to worry about it!" Deng Jiazhe was very attentive and took the initiative to take over the task of picking up the children.

I glanced at him, didn't answer, got up and went upstairs.

Deng Jiazhe, I want you to look at plum blossoms to quench your thirst forever. Is the company okay? Things will happen soon.
