The history of raising children from the Republic of China to the 70s

After all, Li Chengye was just a junior. Although going abroad was a big event, it was not so important that everyone in the Xu family rushed back to celebrate, except for the eldest aunt, and Xu Kewu and Xu Liu who were still studying at the Capital University.Of course, Mr. Xu will also be at home now. He is here at this age. Although he has a lot of work on hand, he is not that busy overall.

"Hey, I don't have to work hard. It's the college students in our family who work hard. We should serve you." The aunt laughed again.

"Brother Ye, I really congratulate you. There are only a few people who can be sent abroad by the government this year. You are really amazing!" Following the big aunt who spoke was Xu Liu, who also participated in the selection this time. It's a pity that she was not selected, and their majors had fewer places, and she was not the best and most suitable one.

"You will have a chance in the future." Li Chengye quickly reassured her, knowing that she was not selected this time, but it doesn't matter, there will still be a chance in the future. According to Professor Xu, after such a selection, almost It happens every year. After the international cooperation is on the right track, there will only be more and more places for government-sponsored study abroad. Now Huaguo needs talents, a large number of talents.

"Really?" Xu Liu felt very regretful in her heart, and when she heard Li Chengye say that, she was naturally very pleasantly surprised.

"Of course." Nodded affirmatively.

"Okay, sit down quickly! It's getting late, and the two children are hungry." Seeing that they had been standing and talking, Mr. Xu hurriedly asked them to sit down.

"Xiaoxi, Xiaobei, how is your study going?" As soon as the two children were mentioned, Li Chengye immediately looked at Xiaoxi and Xiaobei.

The two children looked a little unhappy, they were sitting silently on the chair, their eyes fell on Li Chengye, and it was very easy to see the reluctance and worry inside.

"It's not that you don't know, Xiaoxi and Xiaobei are very good, and they have always been the first or second in the class. What is there to ask?" Li's mother hurriedly spoke, and rubbed the heads of the two children with her hands. Two, it should be because of the growth of the body, the two children are both thin, and they were shaken a few times at once.

Li Chengye felt a little guilty looking at it. To be honest, since he became this Li Chengye, he has actually owed the two children a lot. He has been busy with various things of his own, first working, and then studying.For the two children, he doesn't care much, and to be honest, he doesn't care enough. More things are left to Li's mother.

Now that the child has not yet grown up, he is going to study abroad. It will take at least two years to go out, how difficult it is!

Seemingly seeing that the atmosphere in this meeting was not good, Mother Li didn't want her happy son to make everyone unhappy, so she quickly pulled her son into a chair and sat down.

"Hurry up and eat first! I'll talk about anything later, your aunt put a lot of effort into cleaning up the table today."

"Yes, yes, Brother Ye, you don't know, my mother hasn't been so attentive for a long time!" Xu Kewu also looked at the situation, and quickly responded, holding his chopsticks and pretending to be mouthful. Greedy look.

"What are you doing? Your grandpa hasn't even touched the chopsticks yet!" The aunt of Xu's family glared at her son, and she didn't show mercy. She tapped Xu Kewu's hand with her own chopsticks. It's really not small, it hurts to hear it.

Xu Kewu covered his hands in pain, curled up together, looked at his own mother with a distorted face, and said, "Mom! I'm your own son, can't you just hit me lightly? I didn’t know that I thought you were my enemy!”

The eldest aunt of the Xu family looked disapproving, "Isn't it an enemy to you? Eat my food, drink my food, and always call me fierce behind my back. This is still my own son!"

"Hahahaha..." Mr. Xu couldn't help laughing.

"Grandpa, look, my mother..." Xu Kewu always felt that his mother was targeting him.

"Your mother! It's very good!" Mr. Xu didn't get involved in the matter of the mother and son. It must be that Xu Kewu did something to offend his daughter-in-law, and he took the opportunity to teach him a lesson.

"Grandpa..." Xu Kewu called out sadly.

"What are you doing, you want to look like a man! I didn't know I had an extra baby girl in my family!" Mr. Xu glared at him, goosebumps arose in his heart, the voice scared the old man to death up.

When Mr. Xu said this, some people present laughed. Even Xiaoxi and Xiaobei, who had a sullen face just now, couldn't help but calm down. A slight smile appeared on his face, making Li Chengye who was watching Finally, I feel better.

Xu Kewu was speechless, but it was a pity that no one paid attention to him at this meeting. Mr. Xu was the first to move the chopsticks, and then everyone started eating lively.

"Ye boy, you have to eat more. You will be going out next month. I heard that the food in country Y is all raw food. How can there be thousands of delicacies in Hua country!" It was the eldest aunt who put a chicken leg in Li Chengye's bowl.

"Where there is such an exaggeration, it is all rumored." How many years have passed since civilization evolved, and Country Y is a big international country, so it will never be a ruthless country, at most it just has an inappropriate taste.

"Hey, no matter what, the food from home is not as good anywhere, so eat more today." Master Xu also said with a smile.

A meal can be said to be very enjoyable. Except for Xu Kewu who was a little depressed, food is indeed a good medicine that can heal the sadness. In the end, Xiaoxi and Xiaobei looked contented.

There are many rooms in Xu's villa, and with Mr. Xu's strong request, the four members of Li's family didn't go back to their own home, and just rested here.

"Brother Ye, grandpa told you to go to his study, saying that he has something to look for you." In the room, Li Chengye had just come out of the shower when he heard Xu Kewu calling him outside the door.

"Okay, I'll go over right away." Li Chengye walked over quickly, opened the door, and was still wiping his wet hair with a towel with one hand.

Xu Kewu smiled and said, "Hey, don't worry too much. Dry your hair first before going there." It's November now, and the temperature in the capital is very low. It's easy to get sick if you don't dry your hair.

"Understood, you should rest earlier, won't there be classes next morning?"

"Okay, then I'll go to rest early and wait for you to go to school with me tomorrow morning."

"Okay." After finishing what he was about to say, Xu Kewu left here and returned to his room. Li Chengye quickly wiped his hair with a towel, and then closed the door and went to Mr. Xu's study.

"Grandpa." The door was open, and Li Chengye walked in directly.

In the room, an old man with a lot of white hair on his head was looking at the documents in his hands with glasses. He put down the documents in his hands when he heard the movement, and beckoned people to sit down. After that, he slowly tidied up the things on the table. .

Li Chengye closed the door and walked in, unceremoniously sat on the chair opposite Master Xu.He didn't know if there were any important documents or news on the table, so naturally he wouldn't just look around casually, his gaze would fall on the foot of the table, and he wouldn't take the initiative to ask his grandfather to help sort out the documents or something.

After tidying up the documents and putting them back in the locked drawer, old man Xu casually took off his glasses and looked at Li Chengye with a smile in his eyes.

"Chengye, are you almost thirty?"

Li Chengye was stunned for a moment, not knowing why the other party asked this question, but he immediately said: "Yes, I am 29 this year, and I will be [-] next year." From [-] to now, it will be almost five years soon .

"Standing at thirty, it is said that at your age, your career should have already taken shape. It's just that your life has had a lot of troubles, encountered some ups and downs, and experienced more things, but it doesn't matter. For you Let’s say this world has just begun, and it’s not too late, so don’t be in a hurry! Take care of your health, and your family can’t be ignored!”

Master Xu looked very emotional. His grandson is a very calm person, and he looks very reliable, but he always looks like he doesn't have enough time. He has been chasing time and has worked very hard.

Li Chengye was stunned, "Grandpa, I..."

Mr. Xu raised his hand to stop Li Chengye's words, "It is rare for people to reach their 50s, and they can retire at [-], but there are many people who are still working hard in their [-]s and [-]s. Don't give yourself too much attention." A lot of pressure."

Li Chengye felt a little helpless, what was his grandfather talking about, did he look so anxious?

"Yes." But he can't argue with the old man, maybe in his opinion, that's how it is.

"Your mother is considered to be in good health now, and she has taken all the responsibilities of the children on you, but you, a father, can't forget your responsibilities. You will be busier when you really start working in the future, but the children's time will be gone. Not anymore."

"I see." Speaking of this, Li Chengye really felt a little ashamed, no matter what kind of relationship this child has with him on the spiritual level, but he has become Li Chengye, so naturally he has to pay the corresponding price and bear the corresponding responsibility.

"Studying abroad is a good thing, but you have to tell the children well that you have to understand their work and not hurt them."

"I will."

"Don't worry, the two years will pass very quickly. Your mother and the others will be taken care of by us. When you leave, let them move here..."

Mr. Xu was still very satisfied with Li Chengye's attitude, and then started rambling about the future arrangements.

"It's really troublesome for you, thank you, Grandpa." Li Chengye also felt that it would be better for Mother Li to bring Xiaoxi Xiaobei and the others to move to the Xu family after he left.
