Comfortable life in Siheyuan

After packing up some specialties of the island city, Liu Qingshan found a basket to put them in.

"Mom, when we get back later, take this basket of dried goods home and try them. Remember to soak them in water before cooking." Liu Qingshan said to his mother-in-law with a smile.

"You don't have to give it to us. Your dad and I are the only ones at home, and we don't know how to make these things. It would be a waste if we give them to us." My mother-in-law quickly waved her hands to refuse, and refused to accept it.

"Mom, just take it. There's not much. Try something new." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Really, there's no need. You have so many leaders and colleagues in your factory, you can give some to them. You don't have to worry about this. If I take it back, your father will blame me!" Mother-in-law explained with a smile.

"If you want, I'll have to make a special trip to deliver it to you. I'm so exhausted now! Just carry it yourself. Otherwise, I'll let Xiaoyu make a trip in the evening." Liu Qingshan said cunningly.

"Okay, okay, then I won't be polite with you. I will take it back later. You take less and I will give it to your dad to try." My mother-in-law couldn't stop smiling.

After sorting the things, I went to find some paper and wrapped them up.

Seeing that everything was almost done, Liu Qingshan turned back to deal with the ambergris. He took a basin of clean water, washed it thoroughly, and then moved it to the cellar.

Looking at the familiar yard and home, Liu Qingshan felt extremely at ease. He lay down next to the two children and fell asleep peacefully.

When he woke up again, he was woken up by someone's teasing. Feng Yu was using a handful of her hair to gently play with his nose.

"What time is it? Are you off work?" Liu Qingshan asked sleepily.

"I just got off work. How come you're back so soon?" Feng Yu said happily.

"This time we went to the island city, the leaders there had made relevant preparations in advance, which saved a lot of time." Liu Qingshan explained with a smile.

"That's good. Why did you bring back so much food this time? I've never seen you buy so much when you were on business trips before?" Feng Yu lay on Liu Qingshan's chest, looking at him tenderly.

"The island city we visited this time is close to the sea, so there are many varieties of seafood at cheap prices. It doesn't require any tickets, so I bought a lot." Liu Qingshan explained with a smile.

"Why are those big conches still alive?" Feng Yu asked in surprise.

"I brought some seawater to feed them. It's easier to keep than fish, but they have to be eaten up as soon as possible in the next two days, otherwise they will go bad." Liu Qingshan enjoyed this moment of peace and did not want to get up.

"Hurry up and get up! It's time for dinner. Look, Xixi is calling you dad." Feng Yu joked with a smile.

"How can I get up if you're pressing me down?" Liu Qingshan sighed helplessly.

"Oh! That's right, I didn't remember it." Feng Yu said with a smile.

The two of them stayed together for a while and then got up. Liu Qingshan went out with a gift and took Feng Yu out.

"Who are you delivering it to now? Why do you want me to go with you?" Feng Yu asked curiously.

"Send some to Director Yang of the street office. It's not appropriate to deliver it to the unit tomorrow. It's better to deliver it in the evening." Liu Qingshan explained.

"That's right. We're not looking for anyone to do things for us, so it's really not appropriate to go to the office." Feng Yu nodded his head and said affirmatively.

Along the way, Liu Qingshan kept telling Feng Yu about what he had seen and heard in the island city, describing the blue sea and the freshness of the fish.

After a while, the two arrived at Director Yang's house.

"Boom! Boom!"

"Coming, coming." A man's voice came from the room.

"Hey! Xiao Liu is here, looking for your aunt." Uncle Wang was rarely at home today, and asked with a smile.

"Who is it? Who's here?" Director Yang also came over at this time.

"Aunt, I just came back from a business trip today. I went to the island city and brought you some seafood to try." Liu Qingshan explained with a smile.

"Come in quickly, don't just stand there. Weiguo, Qingshan is here." Aunt Yang called Weiguo.

The Yang family's house suddenly became lively. No one knew why there were so many people here today.

"Aunt, what day is it today? Why are the whole family here?" Liu Qingshan asked with some confusion.

"Hi! It's not a special day. Your uncle is taking two days off and Weiguo's family has come back to live with him. It just so happens that your uncle misses his eldest grandson." Aunt Yang explained.

"That's not easy. I've been here several times, but I've never met him. Uncle Wang has been too busy in recent years." Liu Qingshan said with some emotion.

"Yeah, I finally get to rest for two days, and I'm a little uncomfortable. It's pretty good without him in this family." Aunt Yang said with a look of disgust.

"Aunt, stop joking. I'm giving this to you and I have to go back. I have two children at home and I'm afraid my parents won't be able to take care of them." Liu Qingshan didn't want to disturb other people's family reunions, so he immediately proposed to leave.

"Weiguo, take two bottles of the wine your father brought back to Qingshan, so that your father won't always be craving for wine." Aunt Yang ordered loudly.

"Okay, I'll get it right away." Wang Weiguo responded immediately.

"Aunt, that's really not necessary. My dried seafood is not worth much. I was thinking of going to the island city and bringing some for you to try. You don't have to be so polite with me." Liu Qingshan quickly declined.

"Why are you being polite? Just take it." Director Yang reached out and took the two bottles of wine from Wang Weiguo's hand and placed them in Liu Qingshan's arms.

"Don't be polite. I've been craving it for many days, but my mother won't let me drink it. You're lucky." Wang Weiguo joked with a smile.

"Thank you, Aunt Yang. I'll take it. We'll go back now." Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Stop thanking me all the time. Go back and be careful on the road." Aunt Yang said with a deliberately stern face.

"Goodbye, uncle and aunt. Goodbye Weiguo." Liu Qingshan and his wife said this and left.

Watching the two people walk away, Director Yang slowly closed the door.

"Qingshan is now going on business trips to such far places?" Uncle Wang asked in confusion.

"Don't look at him as he is about the same age as your son. He is much more capable than your son." Director Yang said slowly.

"Mom, I'm not bad either, okay!" Wang Weiguo said with an unconvinced look on his face.

"What do you know? Qingshan is the head of the technical department of their steel rolling mill, and he is also the deputy director of the newly built leather factory. This year, their factory is recruiting workers on a large scale." Director Yang said happily.

"So awesome? I haven't seen him for a few years. I remember he was still a little kid when he was studying at my house!" Uncle Wang said in shock.

"There's something even more amazing. Some time ago, Comrade Yangguang wrote him a letter of praise personally, and I went to read it!" Director Yang said proudly.

"It's true that one should look at a man with new eyes after three days of absence! At that time, I didn't think much of his excellent academic performance, but he has grown so fast. When I heard the knock on the door at first, I thought someone was coming to give gifts or do something for him." Uncle Wang said.

"Qingshan is now the deputy factory director, why does he still need to ask others for help? But we, sometimes, have to go to other people's factories to meet some work targets." Director Yang said disapprovingly.

"I'm just annoyed. It's rare for me to have two days of rest. How can I have peace and quiet? It's always about this and that." Uncle Wang sighed.

"Just step back later. I'm just worried you won't be used to it by then!"
