"The place is so small. How much more usable area can be added by building a staircase? It's better to just leave it as it is." Zheng Juzi felt that he had been infected with laziness and now he would not move if he could.

Her living situation was actually a bit inconvenient, but she felt it was bearable so she didn't move.

Zheng Hanqiu couldn't bear it, "The kitchen, dining room, and bathroom will be downstairs, the yard will be for you to grow flowers, and upstairs will be your and my room."

"Why?" Zheng Juzi was unhappy. Although her sister's aesthetic taste was a hundred times better than hers, she had just experienced the joy of free planting grass at home and didn't want to be disliked again.

"you dislike me?"

"I just don't want to be disliked by you all the time." Zheng Juzi corrected seriously.

I muttered to myself: Who dares to despise you? Just don't despise others.

Instead of converting this old building into a duplex, you might as well buy a self-built house with land nearby.

There are indeed some nearby, but they don't have certificates, and they don't have security guards like the school. Zheng Hanqiu feels that the teachers' residences in this kind of school are the most suitable for lying down.

Zheng Juzi...Isn't this so far from your expectations?

Where is the farmland? Where is the dog? You don't want anything except the yard?

Zheng Hanqiu... No, no, I have to take care of my own little family.

It’s not like before, when I could just hire a housekeeper to come and clean at a fixed time... Now I’d better reluctantly use my younger sister.

Zheng Juzi...are you thinking it's too much for you to order me around?

In short, Zheng Hanqiu squeezed in to live with Zheng Juzi again - even if he had money to speed up the process, it would still take time to decorate the house.

Although Zheng Juzi was dissatisfied, he still accepted it.

Soon, the flowers and plants in the house, which were already not very vigorous, ended their life under the joint watering of the two.

Zheng Juzi...

Zheng Hanqiu... Isn't the basin still there? Can't I just change it?

Zheng Juzi...I feel like one day you will replace me.

But it’s okay to change it, she is not going to be able to survive alone.

Zheng Guixiang still has some complaints about the fact that his two daughters went to college but did not join the work force.

While studying, I was busy doing business to make money.

If you stop studying, will you just “retire” and enjoy your retirement?

More than half of his pigs died and he was in a very depressed mood.

He didn't want to compete with his daughter to see who was more capable. His son had already given up, so what else could he think?

Even though such a big thing happened, my children didn’t come back, especially my two daughters who haven’t started working or going to school yet. They just don’t want to come back, and I still feel empty inside.

Although Zheng Juzi called to deal with the troublemakers in the Qi family and taught them how to protest, he just felt something was not right.

My second brother's family went to the provincial capital, and Ma Xiaozhu's family went to the south to do business. More and more houses were built nearby, and there were fewer and fewer neighbors at home.

Zheng Chunsheng and Zheng Jie opened a hotel together. The couple were still here, but the third brother and his wife had gone to the county town.

The family made money and had no shortage of crops from the fields. Both daughters-in-law wanted their children to study in the county town, so the family pooled their money and bought a house in the county town. Now the eldest grandson is attending elementary school in the county town, and the couple is there to accompany him.

In the future, my younger one will go to the county town to study, and will probably stay there for many years.

Think about my three children. The two older ones are unemployed and unmarried, and the youngest could have graduated from college early, but he has to study for a master's degree instead. None of them will come back.

With all kinds of emotions piling up together, Zheng Guixiang was in a very low mood.

"You see, my third brother and I are less than a year apart in age, and the older one in his family is already in elementary school. When will there be any movement in our family?"

Mu Xiaoyun didn’t know either.

It's a bit urgent to say there's no rush, but it also feels a bit urgent. It's also a bit unreasonable to say there's no need to be anxious. This idea is very awkward.

However, she feels that her life is not bad now. Several special snacks produced by the meat processing plant have always been very popular. The pigs in the farm were poisoned and the raw materials were almost cut off. Now that she has solved the problem, she feels a sense of accomplishment.

Last month, she went to the city to receive an award and feels that her life is pretty good now.

"The children have their own lives now, so why don't we just live our own lives?"

This is how Zheng Guixiang advised her before, and now she advises her man.

Zheng Guixiang naturally knew about it. He was not so old that he needed his children to be around to show their filial piety. But he was really upset that so many pigs were poisoned to death at once.

The money his daughters have belongs to them, and those pigs are raised by him with great effort.

The murderer was brought to justice and my daughter gave him money, but I still felt uncomfortable.

"You tell me." Zheng Guixiang suddenly said, "At that time, we were raising pigs. We were so busy every day that we didn't even have time to rest. We were afraid that the pigs would get sick. We wanted to sleep in the pigsty all day long.

The children were bullied by Lao Wu's family at home. Are they waiting for us to return?"

At that time, they didn't know how to manage it, and raising pigs relied on experience. They were always worried about accidents and losses. They only had a short time to go back, but they didn't spend any time with their children.

When the children told them that they were wronged, Qi Xiaohua would provoke them and they would either think that they were making a big deal out of nothing or that the children were lying.

They didn’t even have enough to eat back then, but as they grew up, they just felt that as long as they weren’t hungry, that was enough.

What's more, why do they make money? Isn't it to give them a better future?

Now that they are independent and have a better future, they feel empty inside.

"Why don't we retire too?" Mu Xiaoyun said suddenly.

"What?"

"Wherever our daughters go, we will go too. They know how to enjoy life better than us, and their retirement life will definitely be comfortable." Mu Xiaoyun felt a little excited just thinking about it.

After working so hard for so long, why can't you enjoy yourself earlier if you have the conditions?

Zheng Guixiang... Actually, I feel that I am still young and it is not time for me to retire and enjoy life.

"It's nothing. If you want to go to work, Orange will definitely find a way." Mu Xiaoyun was very sure.

At that time, when her mother-in-law was so old, she could still find a job that would make the old lady happy, so it was no problem to arrange a job for her father.

Zheng Guixiang...I just feel sad that my pig died. I think Dongji Town is pretty good.

I don't want to retire.

"If we all leave, what will happen to the tree at home?" Zheng Guixiang found a very lame excuse. This pomelo tree is his eldest daughter's treasure.

He is a successful man with a career and the ability to live a simple life with his daughter? He can neither bring himself to do so nor feel at ease.

However, during the Chinese New Year, the couple went to Guangzhou.

When I went to the capital to celebrate the New Year, I didn’t expect that there was heating in the north. The house was much more comfortable than theirs in winter.

Now I am in Guangzhou. Although there is no heating in Guangzhou, the weather is very warm. It is much more comfortable at home or outside than in my hometown.

I’ve heard migrant workers in the village say before that Guangzhou is different from their hometown, but exactly what the difference is, you can only know by experiencing it yourself.
