Chapter 24

At the dinner table, I drank some wine with my grandfather. He is old and can't drink much. Just being with him like this can make him not feel bored, and it can also make him feel the happiness of children and grandchildren around his knees. Therefore, every day Every time I come, no matter white or beer, I will accompany him to drink a few sips.

"What is your mother's shift today? I forgot just now. Let her come here for a bite. When I go back, I'm too lazy to eat all the unnutritious food." Grandma suddenly remembered that her daughter hadn't got her dinner yet, so she went to pick up the phone.

I hurriedly stopped, "Grandma, grandma, you don't need to fight, she has an operation today, I asked her before I came, she said don't worry about her food, let us eat ours, you don't know her yet, after the operation, observe her again And the ward rounds, if you're busy with work, you won't be home until ninety o'clock, so don't worry about her."

Grandma reluctantly took the phone and sat down, "You said that there are three people in your family, your mother has surgery every day, patients every day, and there is no order for three meals, and your father is even more so. If you don't go home for a month, Then you have to forget about the door, it’s just a favor, let’s talk about you, I said, why don’t you worry about your child, the job in this city is good, why did you transfer so far away to some S city, to guard your home You don’t have to worry about food and lodging in the local area, you don’t need to spend money there, are you used to eating, you guys, it’s really..." Grandma was about to pick up the chopsticks when she found the phone was still in her hand, pointing to me and turning around to put it down to the side.

"Grandma, my second uncle told you all about it?" I gave my grandma a fish to flatter me. My job was done by my second uncle, so he probably didn't run away.

"I came to deliver rice to me that day, and I mentioned that you said something, what did you think you were doing, huh?" Grandma took back the fish I gave her, looking a little angry.

I began to appease, "Grandma, it's not for nothing. It just so happens that there is a lack of people in the office over there. People who have wives and children here don't want to go. I'm single. I'm not afraid to go anywhere, and I don't have to worry about it. Besides, Don't I just want to show off, I just got to work, and I don't want to embarrass my uncle."

Grandma seemed not satisfied, and then said: "You are single now, but you will also be looking for a wife in the future. You said you are looking for it over there, or at home, looking for two places at home, and looking for a divorced wife there. We are still far away. I want to see the children in the future. It is difficult to see you. I scolded your second uncle. You didn’t think of it. Did he think of it? I also said, how can I leave it up to the child.”

"Grandma, don't be angry, I can get exercise right now, I haven't thought about my daughter-in-law yet, I'll talk about it later, I'm so handsome, don't worry about that." I giggled.

"Haven't thought about it yet? You're already 27 years old, right? If it wasn't for being a soldier that delayed you, you should be married by now. Let me tell you, you can't delay the matter of the partner. There is a suitable one who looks right. It’s just there, and I won’t be able to pick good ones when I get older.” Grandma looked nervous, as if the shop would disappear after passing this village, I wanted to laugh a little, but thinking that the old man was doing it for my own good, I held back.

"It's not that exaggerated. Now there are not many people in their 30s who are married. What is important now is to start a career first and then start a family. It is different from before. Marriage should not be a stumbling block."

"That's all nonsense. If you don't have a career or your career is not successful, you will become a monk? Your parents don't have time to take care of you. Let me tell you first. After the New Year, you should take care of your girlfriend. Don't worry about it." Wandering around is not a big deal, when you were a soldier, there was nothing you could do about it, now that you are back in your hometown, you have to live an ordinary life, you can escape by getting married and having children.”

"Yes, the Empress Dowager." I stood up and made a 'cha' movement, which can be regarded as amused to her old man.

"It's useless to be poor." Grandma picked up the chopsticks again and started eating.

"If you want me to say, you don't need to meddle in this business. The children are so old and don't know about it, and they won't listen to you after nagging. It's no use." Grandpa suddenly removed the ladder next to him to let grandma pick up the chopsticks' With a bang, it fell on the table again.

I'm sweating here, grandpa, this has just subsided, why are you still making a fuss.

Sure enough, grandma pointed the gun at grandpa, "What do you know, they only have a few years of experience, and we have lived for decades, so we are better than them. Look at Jingwei (big cousin), listen to me I got married early, and now my children are in kindergarten. How wonderful, getting married and having children is a major task in life, and it has to be completed sooner or later. Why can’t I get married sooner? I have to wait until I am an old man in my 30s before getting married. At that time Which girl can fall in love with you, I said you are stupid, so don't speak for him here, or they will still advocate celibacy, you think so."

"Okay, I can't say no to you, eat quickly, the food is cold after nagging for a long time."

"Am I nagging? Isn't this something here..."

"Grandma, grandpa, stop arguing about me, come on, be good, eat well, eat well." I picked up food for the two of you, and poured the wine for grandpa into my own glass, "This is for me Come on, stop drinking." I was afraid that if his blood pressure rose again, he would really be overwhelmed.

"That's how we are. Don't look at your grandpa who is usually very obedient and doesn't talk much, but you can choke your neck if you say something out of the blue. This is not the case when you are young. This is even more colorful when you are old, haha "It's been a lifetime. I have a clear understanding of my temperament and temperament. One second, I was quarrelsome and my face was flushed. The next second, the past is over and the reconciliation is as good as before. It is amazing and enviable.

"If you don't say a few words, I can still praise you." Grandpa added.

"Yes, no, I can't bear it." Grandma proudly picked up the rice bowl without even looking at Grandpa, and stuffed the pork ribs I gave her into her mouth.

The old couple are arguing meaninglessly, this is the essence and normality of life, love and happiness are born from this, and they are all extracted from such bits and pieces. Looking at them, I am actually very happy. My envy and yearning, thinking about the future, how nice it would be if my him and I could spend our whole life and decades together like this.

Since I met Xu Yang again, I found that I am more and more willing to pay attention to the couples on the road, young, middle-aged, and old. They also walk hand in hand, embrace each other on the side of the road, and maybe bargain with vendors at the side of the vegetable market. In short, it is so ordinary, often attracting my eyes.

I have to say that I have an eager longing for that kind of life.

I want to go to the street with my him hand in hand, do everything he wants to do, buy his favorite things, listen to his favorite songs, even create all surprises for him that he can't think of, and then hold him in my arms Next month, or listening to a musical, even if I can't understand it, I want to do it.

I firmly believe that this beautiful idea will come true, and I also firmly believe that he and I will receive everyone's blessings and walk into the palace of happiness. Even if we only take such a small step now, but Xu Yang, I will not let go over yours.

After the meal, the old couple stayed with them for a while and went home without staying there. Before leaving the gate of the community, they ran into Shi Luo.

"Birth..."

"Shi Luo? Why are you here?"

It seems that the two of us met by fate in a certain community. Last time I was looking for news about Xu Yang, and we met in the community where he lived. It was such a coincidence that we met again here.

"My future father-in-law's family lives here, no, did you just buy some New Year's goods for them, how about you?"

"My grandpa's house is here, I'll come and see them."

"Hey, what a coincidence you said, this black thing happened to come across, let's go, have a drink or two, do you have anything else tonight?"

"No, I'm going to go back to sleep now."

"Hey, what are you going to sleep for? It's only less than ten o'clock. I'll wake up Chu Ran after drinking."

"Not good, his family..."

"Ask me, what are you afraid of? Is he really locked up after getting married? Then he is really a loser."

In fact, I really wanted to see them too. I didn't go to Xu Yang's meeting with them yesterday. It seemed unreasonable not to go today, so I didn't stop them and asked Shi Luo to call.
