Two days later, they returned home.

Wen Hao naturally moved into the house that Gong Cheng bought near the training center this time.The nannies they hired in the United States also followed. Originally, Gong Cheng planned to find two nannies in China to take care of the children, but Wen Hao thought that the children were already familiar with the care of American nannies, and their understanding of some English words was far better than Chinese. At this time It would be irrational to switch babysitters for the kids.

Fortunately, this house is bigger than living in the United States.

Wen Hao and Gong Cheng live upstairs, the children live in the children's room downstairs, and the nanny's room next door.In order to make it easier for children to play, this house has undergone a second renovation. The floor is covered with thick carpets, and the walls and corners are covered with soft sponges. There is no sharp object in the room, and children can play freely. .

It's a pity that the babies are still a little bit young and can't crawl, so these thoughtful preparations are not needed. It's a pity, but Wen Hao can see Gong Cheng's intentions.

After the children fell asleep, Wen Hao went back upstairs to beat the jet lag, and when he came down again, the room was full of people.

Their marriage certificate in the United States is placed on the coffee table. Gong Cheng's mother Wen Yazhi and second sister Wen Xiaojing are holding a baby, and Gong Cheng's elder brother Gong Xun is sitting on the other single sofa, and Wen Ya Zhi sat on the sofa and saw Mrs. Gong Xun who Wen Hao came down and didn't have time to hide his embarrassment.

Everyone in Gong Xun's family who could come has come. Gong Junyou is away on a post, and the Chinese New Year is a time when people need to be close to the people, so this year's Chinese New Year should not come back.Before Wen Hao returned to China, he had heard from Gong Cheng that his father would be transferred back to Beijing two years after his term of office ended, and he would definitely move to a position of real power by then.Since the old man of the Gong family retired four years ago, the Gong family and the forces they belong to have been preparing for this day. It will either be a member of the Standing Committee or that position. As long as this battle is won, the Gong family can prosper for another 30 years.And after that...the flower will never be a hundred-day red flower, but no one can guarantee anything.

Such a family puts a lot of pressure on Wen Hao. In the face of doubts and words from all sides, maybe Gong Cheng can protect him, but how closely can he protect him?There will always be invisible arrows flying over.

Wen Yazhi saw him, put her sister in the arms of her daughter-in-law, then got up to meet him.She grabbed Wen Hao's hand, her eyes were full of genuine pity, and she said, "Did we wake you up? But don't starve yourself when you're jet-lagged, there's food in the kitchen, go to sleep after eating." .”

"Auntie..." Wen Hao smiled. The "stabs in the back" are just imaginary things. How silly it would be to have to compete with the unknown future without letting go of people who are kind to you in front of you.He will try his best to settle in the country. If the Gong family and the Wen family are willing to help, he will accept it, manage his life and career well, raise the children, and when they go to school and stop clinging to him, he can Travel everywhere and live a casual life.

Wen Yazhi didn't correct Wen Hao's address. Her husband's status is here, and it is definitely inappropriate to have a male daughter-in-law. Therefore, Wen Hao's status is a relative of her Wen family. According to her seniority, she should be called aunt.

Wen Yazhi led Wen Hao to sit on the sofa, and her brother immediately stretched out his little hand to put Wen Hao on him.

Wen Xiaojing jokingly said: "This is my own. We have been teasing him for a long time, but he didn't even smile. Once you come, you will immediately change your face."

Mrs. Gong Xun immediately continued: "The child is the most innocent. When our family was so old, he was clinging to me. His father was always busy outside. At the very beginning, I wanted to give him a hug!

Wen Yazhi is very satisfied with her daughter-in-law's attitude.

This daughter-in-law is also an aristocratic daughter from a wealthy family. She has a noble temperament and is reasonable. She is indeed a good helper to her stepson.But everyone knows very well that these are just superficial things, kindness and kindness are for others to see, and the thoughts in their hearts may be extremely dirty.At least this daughter-in-law obviously disdains the fact that her son finds a man to live with.But the most important thing is that she is smart and can see clearly the direction of the wind and the general trend. As long as she is willing to be kind on the surface, she will naturally be kind to her daughter-in-law.

but stepson...

Wen Yazhi looked at her stepson. Although she hadn't said a word since entering the room, her willingness to appear here showed her attitude.She didn't know how her son persuaded this stubborn elder brother, and she couldn't help but think eccentrically, after all, he was her own son, and the means were very clever.

"Gong Cheng is in the kitchen, and he's serving hot food for you. He said just now that you were about to wake up, and you came down." Seeing Wen Hao's eyes wandering, Wen Xiaojing covered her mouth and suppressed a smile, and explained.In her opinion, the two will be together, even married, and the relationship must be very good.What he didn't know was that Wen Hao just woke up and crashed into a group of women for no reason, and now he was trying to save himself from the sea of ​​suffering by himself.

While speaking, Gong Cheng came out.Seeing Wen Hao, a smile appeared on his face: "Are you awake? Do you want to eat?"

Wen Hao nodded, hurriedly returned his brother to Wen Xiaojing, got up and left.

The dining room is next to the kitchen. Gong Cheng brought out the hot meals. There are four dishes, two meat, one vegetable and one soup. They are all fresh and untouched, but they need to be reheated after the meal time.

"I made the rice, do you think it's soft or hard?" Gong Cheng served a bowl of rice for Wen Hao, and presented it to Wen Hao like a treasure.

Wen Hao said thank you and took the meal.

He was really hungry, Wen Hao lowered his head and ate a few mouthfuls, and when he looked up, Gong Cheng was sitting on the side and looking at him.

"I eat slowly by myself."

Of course Gong Cheng understood Wen Hao's meaning, but he didn't move at all. He had a faint smile on his face: "Let my mother accompany the children, and I will accompany you."

"..." Wen Hao couldn't eat under the scorching gaze.

Gong Cheng understood Wen Hao's embarrassment, took a set of bowls and chopsticks for himself, and ate with him.

After eating quietly for a while, laughter came from the living room, Wen Hao raised his head and looked at Gong Cheng.

Gong Cheng, who has been focusing on Wen Hao, said: "Are you afraid that the child will not be able to rest? After we finish eating, I will send mother home."

"No." Wen Hao shook his head. Grandma likes her grandson. This is called family happiness. It's a rare gathering. He's not that hypocritical.

"That is……"

"Is this house in my name?"

"Um……"

"I'll pass it on to my brother." Wen Hao decided to give all that Gong Cheng gave him to his children. He will work hard to earn more, buy a house for himself, and leave an inheritance for his children.

Gong Cheng sighed. What did he want to say? We are all married. In the United States, we are officially recognized as a formal relationship that can enjoy the rights of spouses.To put it bluntly, I will belch someday, and all the property will be yours, okay?But he didn't say anything. Since Wen Hao likes to insist on this area, it's not a big deal for him to let him go.

Gong Cheng agreed, Wen Hao had a smile on his face, and he was relieved to have solved a difficult problem.

After thinking about it, Gong Cheng said, "Give it to my sister."

"Ok?"

"If you give this house to your brother, the transfer fee will be at least [-] yuan. After the children's account is improved, the transfer fee for the children's relationship is very cheap, and it only costs a few thousand yuan for the younger sister."

"..." Wen Hao felt that this reason was too good to refute.He was really reluctant to pay so much transfer fee.

"Don't you want to do an appraisal?" Wen Hao thought, and it was the first time he formally brought up this topic.

Gong Cheng shook his head: "my sister is obedient and beautiful, she must be your child, my brother is lazy and timid, I don't know who he looks like."

"..." Like you.Wen Hao couldn't say this out of conscience, his brother's temper was really not like Gong Cheng's.But my sister is my child for sure. The eyes and lips are too similar, especially the curvature of the double eyelids, which is too far from Gong Cheng's eyes.

The matter was settled in this way. After my sister got her own household registration in China, she immediately had a house worth nearly [-] million yuan and became the real "head of the family".

On New Year's Eve, Wen Hao and the children went to Gong Cheng's house and saw the old man who often appeared on TV.

Wen Hao didn't want to go, he just wanted Gong Cheng to go back with his brother in his arms. The children of the Gong family recognized their ancestors and returned to their ancestors, so what would he do with the past.But Gong Cheng refused, and the aunt called him to go.Even the second sister said that in order to accompany him through this test, she also went to Gong's house for the New Year this year. The oil bottle brought by her stepmother accompanied Wen Hao. No one could be worse than anyone else.

Speaking of this, Wen Hao had no choice but to go.

After the old man retired, he and his wife lived in the compound, and there were guards standing at the door. The small single-family building was decorated with Spring Festival couplets and window grilles, and a big blessing was pasted on the gate.

Wen Hao walked among the crowd and entered the house.The old man and the old lady were sitting on the sofa in the middle of the living room. The old man's appearance was exactly the same as what he saw on TV. He was a hale and hearty old man with gray hair.When the relatives went home to celebrate the New Year, the old man had a smile on his face, the old lady got up and greeted the people, and the guards put away the presents and put them aside.The old man's gaze clearly swept across Wen Hao's face, but he didn't stop there for a moment, as if he couldn't see anyone.

After Wen Yazhi entered the room, she held Wen Hao's hand, introduced Wen Hao to the old man, and then showed the child to the old man. When the old man saw his brother's gray eyes, his expression changed, and the rest of the time he kept a cold face. .

Here, Wen Hao still has something he doesn't understand: the old man doesn't accept him.

That's right, it's too easy for him to be accepted, and he always forgets what kind of family the Gong family is. In a family in that position, his appearance is indeed not welcome.

Wen Xiaojing's status in this family was also very embarrassing. Seeing Wen Hao's cold face, she immediately became unhappy. Just as she was about to say something, Gong Cheng held Wen Hao's hand.

Gong Cheng put the gift brought by Wen Hao on the table, and smiled at his grandfather: "Grandpa, Wen Hao and I wish you good health and all the best. This is the first New Year that Wen Hao and the children have spent together , I have my own arrangements, so I came to wish you a new year, and we will leave." He said that he wanted to protect Wen Hao so that no one could bully him, and the same was true for his grandfather. Take it away, so as not to suffer that undeserved crime.It's just that I have to say this in a smooth manner, not in a blunt manner, so as to leave more bad impressions on Grandpa.

The old man glanced at his brother and looked deeply at Gong Cheng.Don't think that he can't see what Yaosun means by protecting that man, he is just an old feudal and stubborn man, you found a man to go home, why do you let me greet you with a smile? !

Gong Cheng smiled nonchalantly: "If you miss your grandson, I'll bring the child to see you in two days."

The old man pursed his lips and didn't say anything, the boss was not happy.

Wen Xiaojing smiled and said: "Cheng Cheng, where are you going to take Wen Hao to celebrate the New Year? Why don't you go to Wen's house? Wen Hao is a serious relative of our Wen family. Grandpa has mentioned several times that he wants to meet someone. It’s better to hit the sun than choose the day, let’s do it today.”

"Cough!" The old man woke up and frowned, "Jing girl, what did you just say? What kind of relative?"

"Don't you know, old man? Wen Hao and I are the same old ancestors, the grandsons of my ninth grandfather. When my grandfather knew that I found Wen Hao, he happily said hello three times. Our Wen Hao has suffered a lot since we were young. , no parents, but we are capable. We are self-reliant and self-reliant when we are ten years old. We are world swimming champions, and we also study abroad, and we have both master's degrees. As far as this ability is concerned, let alone how many such children there are in our capital. Money has the right to raise it, and it is all given away. Compared with our Wen Hao, it is a world and a world. What kind of temperament is a child who grows up like this? If there is a better opportunity, the achievement is uncertain. What about it?"

"Didn't Cheng Cheng and Wen Hao get married in the United States? What do you say in terms of identity, is it from the Gong family or the Wen family?"

"Same-sex marriage is different. There is no such thing as who marries whom, but the person must belong to our Wen family."

When the old man heard this, his face suddenly sank, and he was unhappy, so he glared at Gong Cheng again.

Gong Cheng secretly gave his second sister a thumbs up.

Good things are afraid of fighting.The old man has been in power all his life, and he wants to be strong all his life. Wen Hao and Gong Cheng's marriage in the United States is a certainty. At the critical moment when his son is about to rise, he can't make it big and make people laugh, so he swallows it unwillingly. It's a dumb loss.But it is impossible for him to give Wen Hao a good face.Fortunately, Wen Hao's excellence is obvious to all. The old man has met many people, many of whom are better than Wen Hao, but none of them are his "granddaughters-in-law", so before judging, Wen Hao has already been placed in the category of his own people.

The Wen family wanted to snatch Wen Hao, the feeling in the old man's heart was like a cooked duck flying away... In short, he was not happy if he was left behind, and he was even more unhappy when he was gone.

Old child, old child, without the heavy burden of death on his shoulders, he is alive and returning.

"Dad." Wen Yazhi saw that the heat was about the same, and said in a timely manner, "It's almost here, Cheng Cheng and Haohao are going to my house too late, why don't they leave after dinner."

"En." The old man was sung by his family members with red faces and white faces, and finally swallowed the bait.

Gong Cheng beamed with joy, Wen Xiaojing also breathed a sigh of relief, Wen Yazhi pulled Wen Hao to the side of the sofa to sit down, and winked at him.

Wen Hao, who didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, just ate a New Year's Eve dinner at Gong's house.

Don't look at it as just a meal, but everyone knows that the relationship between Wen Hao and Gong Cheng is a clear one.

After dinner, Gong Cheng and Wen Hao went back, and Wen Hao asked with a strange expression on the way: "Your grandfather, did you accept me?"

He always felt that it was not so easy. What kind of family is that?How is it possible to accept him?But what's the point of this supper?

Gong Cheng said "Hum", and responded to Wen Hao with a somewhat vague attitude.

Of course the old man didn't mean that.With his current status, he can't argue with the juniors. It's the parents' business to take care of the children. The Gong family already has a Gong Xun who inherits the family business, so it's okay to indulge Gong Cheng.It's just that Wen Hao's existence has touched the bottom line of the old man after all. I guess the real thought in my heart should be to see each other less in the future.As for accepting Wen Hao sincerely, it is a bit whimsical.

But there is no need to explain these to Wen Hao.He will live with Wen Hao in the future, and the old man probably won't see each other once a year, so why bother to tell the truth to others, it's good to let the misunderstanding continue like this.

The northerners ate this New Year's Eve dinner early, and the news broadcast hadn't finished when they left after eating.I didn't expect that the roads would be congested during Chinese New Year, and those who were rushing home for dinner probably thought of abandoning their cars and walking in a hurry.They moved 10 meters within 20 minutes of being blocked on the overpass.The usually quiet younger sister was a little impatient, and whimpered and whimpered from her mouth.

At dinner, Gong Cheng drank some wine, Wen Hao was driving the car, and when he heard the voice, he said, "See if she's pooping."

Gong Cheng didn't dislike it either, he carefully pinched his sister's legs and lifted them up, then put his nose up and sniffed: "Yes, I did."

Wen Hao looked back, and Gong Cheng had already taken the backpack skillfully, took out the diaper and wet wipes from it, and wiped his sister's butt and changed the diaper.My sister's butt was comfortable, and she stopped crying. Wen Hao opened the window a little to change the air in the car.

After Gong Cheng changed his sister's diaper, he didn't put her back in the safety seat, but just hugged her and played with her.

Wen Hao slid the car forward for more than ten meters, then turned around and said, "Sister's name should be Wen Lan. The wind in the mountains, the wild aura is still free, and a simpler name is more generous. What do you think?"

Gong Cheng looked down at his younger sister, feeling dissatisfied. He thought for a while and said, "You can choose your first name, and your nickname is Mi Li, okay?"

"?"

"My daughter, I also have the right to name it. Rice grains are so good, everyone loves them, they are crystal clear and fragrant."

"..."

"Can you?" Gong Cheng lowered his head to coax his sister, "Rice grains, rice grains, millet grains, mua~, kiss the millet grains."

Wen Hao raised his eyebrows, he was quite cute when he heard that. "Okay, just this nickname."
