A car accident, our family of three crossed
Chapter 15 The Old Patriarch's Advice
When coming out of Sun's house, I could see Hang Shuheng coming out of Shuisheng's yard from a distance. The young man seemed to be talking to him excitedly, and his young face was full of admiration.
Hang Shuheng saw her, said something to the boy and came over here.
"What did you say to him? I saw that he looked at you with admiration."
"Nothing much. I just gave him some suggestions on the wooden products he made."
The two of them talked and walked away hand in hand, with Yangyang skipping and following the adults' footsteps.
Aunt Sun watched them walk away and couldn't help but admire them. When she returned to the yard and saw her daughter-in-law, she couldn't help but glared at her. "You are so short-sighted. Have you ever eaten meat?"
Shi Tou Niang was not angry, and whispered: "In addition to meat, there is also a bag of pastries!" Thinking of the fragrance of the pastries she had just smelled, she couldn't help swallowing.
"What? There are also cakes?" Aunt Sun walked into the kitchen in surprise. She saw that in addition to the meat, there was indeed a bag of cakes. She couldn't help but sigh, "Shuheng's wife doesn't often hang out with the villagers, but I didn't expect her to be so thoughtful. You young wives are far inferior to her. You only know how to envy others all day long and gossip about them behind their backs. You don't even consider whether they care about you or not. Humph! You are nothing."

Afterwards, Song Ning's family of three visited several other families. Since it was not a festival, the villagers did not have many opportunities to eat meat, so when they saw the gifts they sent, they accepted them after a brief hesitation.
The last ones they went to were the village head and the old clan leader's house. The two families lived next to each other, which was convenient and saved them a long journey. They first sent the thank-you gift to the village head's house, and the village head's wife was not polite and accepted it generously, saving them from having to talk again.
After leaving the village head’s house, it only took a few steps to reach the old patriarch’s yard.
"Uncle! Young Master Heng is here to see you."
As soon as he entered the door, Hang Shuheng waved two jars of wine towards the old patriarch. "I brought you two jars of wine, please don't despise them!"
"Hey! It's still boy Heng who really understands me. That's just what I like, hahaha!" The old patriarch was very happy about their arrival.
Song Ning brought Yang Yang over and called for someone. After Song Ning's prompting, Yang Yang called out crisply and sweetly, "Hello, great grandfather!"
"Hey! Okay, okay, okay, okay, hahaha!" This made the old patriarch so happy that he couldn't stop smiling, and he was determined to keep them here no matter what.
The old patriarch pushed Song Ning and her son to be entertained by the uncles, aunts and aunts, but he dragged Hang Shuheng to play chess with him.
At the end of the game, the old patriarch suffered a miserable defeat. He immediately cleaned up the chessboard and regrouped.
Hang Shuheng could see that the old man was not very good at chess, but he was very addicted to it. To use a phrase from later generations, he was a bad player but loved to play.
So, in the second game, the old patriarch lost five pieces.
"Uncle, you lost again!" Hang Shuheng said with a smile.
"Come again, come again." The old patriarch became more and more courageous as the battle went on.
In the third game, the old patriarch lost three pieces.
"Uncle, thank you for letting me."
"Come again"
In the fourth game, Hang Shuheng barely won by one point. He said in surprise: "Uncle, you are improving so fast!"
"Hahaha! Come again, I don't believe I can't beat you, kid. Come again, come again." The old patriarch laughed proudly.
"What are you bringing?" Auntie came over and said angrily, "Don't you see what time it is? It's time to eat." She put away the chessboard without saying a word.
"Hey! You old woman, don't even give me some face in front of the younger generation."
"To save your face, all of us will have to wait for you with empty stomachs."
"You really are getting worse as you get older!"
The old patriarch pointed at my uncle and aunt and glared at them, but you couldn't tell how angry he was. I guess this is how this old couple gets along.
"Heng, let's go and have a drink with your uncle."
The food had already been served in the main room. There were quite a few people, big and small, so they were divided into two tables, one for the men and one for the women with their children. It was quite lively.
After three rounds of drinking, the old patriarch was already tipsy. He sighed and said, "Heng boy, you are a good young man. Our Hang family has only produced a serious scholar like you. If you graduate from high school in the future, don't forget your basics!"
"Uncle, you really think too highly of Shuheng. Shuheng is just a student now. It is hard to say what his future will be like. But no matter what, a man should not forget his roots." Hang Shuheng said modestly.
"Don't underestimate yourself. Uncle has high hopes for you, but your mother, ah..." Speaking of Hang's mother, the old patriarch sighed heavily again, "Uncle knows that you have your own ideas, but your mother is your mother after all. Don't go too far in the future. What happened yesterday is over. I think your mother should calm down a little."
Hang Shuheng couldn't help but smile when he heard this.
"This little trick really couldn't be hidden from your eyes, uncle!" He said helplessly, "What I did yesterday was really a helpless move."
"So, what are your wife's dowry?" The old patriarch suddenly came closer and asked mysteriously.
Hang Shuheng knew what he was asking, so he nodded and said, "It's true."
"Hahaha..." The old patriarch couldn't help laughing out loud, but when he realized that everyone was looking at him, he quickly stopped laughing, cleared his throat, and leaned closer to Hang Shuheng and whispered, "Your father-in-law is really a fox."
Hang Shuheng smiled but said nothing. He had never expected that his cheap father-in-law would have such foresight. It seems that the ancients were not all rigid and inflexible.
The reception was a great success for both the host and the guests. When the family of three left the old patriarch's house, it was almost evening. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the two adults and one child walked side by side on the country road, holding hands, enjoying this rare comfort.
The only drawback was that there was not even a trace of cool breeze in the air, and it was particularly hot and stuffy in this midsummer evening.
"This day is too boring!" Song Ning couldn't help but complain.
"It's supposed to rain tonight." Hang Shuheng looked at the sky and said.
"It would be nice if it rained, so I can sleep better at night."
"Ok!"
"How long will it take for the bathtub you and Shuisheng ordered to be ready?"
"Not so fast, maybe three to five days!" Hang Shuheng turned to see her gloomy face and said with a smile, "Just bear with it!"
Song Ning snorted: "What else? What else can I do?" What else could she do except wait?
They chatted with each other and walked slowly towards their home. That was their first home in this world and the place of their rebirth.
The setting sun stretched their shadows very long...
The old patriarch was leisurely smoking his pipe in the yard, praising them: "Hey! This young couple is really generous. I, an old man, can't bear to buy such good tobacco!"
My aunt joked, "When you get something good, you can show it off as much as you want."
"Of course not! This is a gift from the young couple to me, an old man, hahaha!"
"Tsk, look at you showing off!"
