At the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, primary school students began to take vacation one after another, and Yang's mother began to pack her luggage and prepare to take her eldest grandson back to her hometown.
Although I was extremely reluctant to part with my grandson and granddaughter, I could only reluctantly send him to my daughter-in-law at this time.
The eldest daughter-in-law has already given in so much. She can't push further, not to mention that her in-laws are retiring in Yangjiacun. If you take your grandson and granddaughter back, how will you let your in-laws deal with it?
The grandson and granddaughter have just been arranged here and are about to leave. Over there, my nephew, Yang Dongxu's cousin, Hexin and his wife came to the magic city.
The payment issue has been settled through judicial channels, and the old man who owed the money was sent to a cell to breathe a sigh of relief. At the same time, he was able to establish his own reputation in Jiaxing.
Coupled with the fact that there is a big boss like Hua Xiu behind him who occasionally takes care of him, the business of Hexin Garment Factory has been very good in the past few months. If he didn't want to get closer to his cousin, he would also come over to thank Qi Bin, the lawyer who helped him with the lawsuit.
They simply don't have time to go to the Magic City during such a busy time at the end of the year. They are not even sure whether they will go home during the Chinese New Year.
"How much money do you earn outside when you go home to celebrate the New Year? What's the use of earning so much money when the whole family can't be together during the New Year?" Yang's mother, who was washing fruits in the kitchen, heard her nephew say that he was busy at the end of the year and had no time to go home during the New Year. , walked out of the kitchen carrying fruit.
My son hasn't been home for the Chinese New Year in a few years, but he still couldn't help it. The truck was so slow at that time, and it took almost half a month to go back and forth from Yanjing to Fucheng.
But since the traffic speed increased, whether by train or plane, unless accompanying Bai Qian, and Li Fuzhen occasionally did not go home during the Chinese New Year, Yang Dongxu went back every New Year. Especially in recent years, I have never said that I will not go home during the New Year.
"Yes, yes, I will definitely go back. No matter how busy I am, I will go back." He Xin, who was originally talking to Yang Dongxu, nodded in agreement. She was still quite afraid of her third aunt.
In the past, it was just the fear of the elders by the younger generation, but as Yang Dongxu's side developed better and better, and even reached the point where it was just out of reach, the majesty of Yang Ma's side grew unconsciously.
It is said that Yang's mother has always been very kind and not bossy, but when your wealth reaches a certain level, although you don't feel much about it, the people around you become flattering invisibly.
"Go home for the New Year. My cousin is married. If you don't go home for the New Year, it would be too deserted for the second aunt and the second uncle to stay at home and stare at each other during the New Year." Yang Dongxu couldn't help but say.
"Yeah, yeah, let's go home. I just said that I was too busy and had some considerations. I didn't say that I would not go home for the New Year." He Xin kept nodding.
Just as they were saying this, Aunt Hua brought Qi Bin and Jiang Laner over.
In addition to getting close to his cousin, whom he rarely sees a few times a year, He Xin came to the capital for another purpose: to thank Qi Bin.
Originally, I wanted to come to the Yang family to say hello and thank him, and then find a good restaurant to invite Qi Bin out to thank him.
After Yang's mother heard about this, she didn't let her nephew bother her. He directly asked him to invite Qi Bin to his home.
Since thanking others is tantamount to returning a favor, Yang's mother was afraid that her nephew would not be able to give up the favor even if he said so little, so she planned to let her son help to hold off the battle.
As for her son's help to her nephew, it seems to Yang Ma that it is appropriate. After all, they are all relatives. When someone encounters difficulties, it is natural for him to help him if he can. Otherwise, how can he be called a relative?
Therefore, it doesn't matter if your nephew owes you a favor, but you must repay the favor he owes to outsiders.
Moreover, Jiang Laner and Wu Xue are still best friends, and Yang Ma treats Wu Xue just like she treats Zhuo Qing'er, treating each other as her daughter, so it would be nice to have a lively dinner at home at the end of the year.
"The efficiency is good!" Yang Dongxu stood up to greet the guests when they arrived. He couldn't help but joked when he saw Qi Bin supporting Jiang Lan'er.
I don’t know if it’s due to her physical condition or something else, but Jiang Laner is very pregnant, with a big belly at this time.
"Lan'er is not young anymore. It would be better to have a child as soon as possible." Qi Bin showed a somewhat honest smile, not at all the wise and courageous person he usually is as an elite lawyer.
This is obviously a slave to the child. In fact, it is quite unexpected for Jiang Laner to be pregnant with Qi Bin. He was also very torn about whether to have children or not.
After all, he approached Jiang Lan'er with bad intentions and didn't have much feelings for Jiang Lan'er.
But just when he was hesitating, he suddenly discovered that Jiang Laner was pregnant, and she was pregnant before he got married. Because the pregnancy symptoms were not obvious, I never noticed it.
It was only when Jiang Laner found out that she hadn't had her period for more than two months that she went to the hospital for a check-up that she was pregnant.
Qi Bin was also confused about the sudden arrival of the child at first, but for a while there was no suitable excuse for Jiang Laner to have an abortion. After all, Jiang Laner's age was at stake. An abortion at this time would be very harmful to the body. It was unclear whether she would be able to get pregnant again in the future. Not necessarily.
Just when he was hesitating, the fetus was developing day by day. He accompanied Jiang Laner for several examinations and watched his child grow up day by day through the instruments. An indescribable responsibility of being a father suddenly fell on his shoulders.
Therefore, Qi Bin gritted his teeth and prepared to give birth to this child. As for the future, we will talk about it later. His child is innocent and he cannot be allowed to leave like this before he has seen the world.
"You dislike my age?" Jiang Laner looked at Qi Bin sideways.
It is said that mother is more valuable than child. Although Jiang Laner didn't know whether the child in her belly was a boy or a girl, her aura began to grow slowly regardless of whether it was a boy or a girl.
In fact, Jiang Laner has always felt guilty about marrying Qi Bin, because Qi Bin is extremely good in every aspect, and he will definitely be able to find a better and younger girl.
Although she has some money in her hands, she obviously made money by marrying Qi Bin, because Qi Bin can also make money and doesn't care much about the money in her hands.
Therefore, because of the gap between the two people's knowledge and excellent personal abilities, Jiang Laner always has a little inferiority complex.
But now this inferiority complex is gone. The little life in his belly is Shang Fang's sword. Qi Bin can only obey and not resist.
"No way." Qi Bin looked innocent when Jiang Laner glared at him sideways.
This woman's temper has been getting worse and worse during this period, especially when she first became pregnant, she had no symptoms of pregnancy at all. She didn't have a menstrual period for more than two months and went to have a check-up to find out she was pregnant.
Since I found out I was pregnant, my baby has been growing little by little. Jiang Laner's pregnancy symptoms were more severe than those of ordinary people. Some time ago, she was so dizzy that she was almost hospitalized due to vomiting.
So during this period, Qi Bin could only support Jiang Lan'er like his grandmother. When he was a spy, his superb methods of picking up girls and getting close to some gold-collar women did not work on Jiang Lan'er, a pregnant woman.
After all, in the past, when dealing with those golden collars or elite female executives of the group, a frontal attack was not enough. He could still play hard to get, retreat in order to advance, and resort to various means to deal with them.
But when facing the pregnant Jiang Laner, forget about attacking her head-on, playing hard to get, and retreating in order to advance. Because he has a slightly different attitude, Jiang Laner dares to show you vomiting in the dark.
It makes Qi Bin jump up and down like a jumping monkey all day long. I hope Jiang Lan'er won't be angry or have morning sickness, and stay in a happy mood so that the fetus can develop normally.
Qi Bin was crazy when faced with such a life at first, but gradually he got used to it and enjoyed it. It was not that he had any masochistic tendencies. Rather, he felt like a real home.
In the past, no matter how good the task was, how much remuneration was received, it would satisfy the man's vanity to overthrow the strong woman.
Everything feels so nihilistic and unreal floating in the air, and I am like a leaf of duckweed swaying in the wind.
But now the family he built with Jiang Lan'er gave him a down-to-earth feeling. The child in Jiang Lan'er's belly gave his floating duckweed an instant support and a root. A kind of warmth that he had never felt before brought his heart to life. Surrounded by a hard heart.
"Come here, don't get tired after standing for a long time with a big belly. By the way, do you have any taboos? Tell auntie, she will make something else for you."
Seeing a pregnant woman, Mother Yang came up to say hello. At this time, Zhou Ya heard the noise below and came down from upstairs with Hexin's wife.
Seeing the pregnant Jiang Laner, the two women immediately gathered around her.
These two women were both mothers and had children, so the three women chatted quickly. There are endless tips for coping with pregnancy symptoms during pregnancy.
Even Wu Xue and Jiang Jing, who were not married and had no children, listened with great interest. Women seemed to be particularly interested in this topic.
"Okay, let's go over there and do it." Looking at the women who were chirping like they were having a tea party, Yang Dongxu shrugged helplessly and walked to the living room next to him with He Xin and Qi Bin. There was no room in the hall. A few men had their place.
"Thank you, thank you very much. I'm really sorry for bothering you." He looked at the women who were so concerned about their pregnant wives.
Jiang Laner, who had been in a bad mood these past few days, suddenly turned into a bright and cheerful mood. Qi Bin kept thanking her.
"What are you talking about? It's all friends. Don't be so polite. By the way, what kind of wine do you like to drink? If you want to drink red wine, I will ask someone to open a bottle and wake up first." Yang Dongxu asked.
"No, it can go with any kind of wine, I'm not that particular."
"Then let's drink red wine. You'll have to drive later. It's safe to drink some red wine. White wine is too strong and unsafe to drive. Come on, don't sit over there. I'll take you two to see my collection of good wines. If you like it, just tell me and I’ll give you two bottles when I leave.”
"Then go take a look." Before Qi Bin said anything, He Xin next to him said with great interest.
Originally, he was thinking about getting a Mercedes and buying a villa in Jiaxing after two years of making money.
After I came to Shanghai and saw Yang Dongxu's villa, I suddenly felt that the villa was not that fragrant anymore. The housing in the high-end community where I lived was quite good.
After all, the villa I bought has no garden, no swimming pool, and no wine cellar, let alone such luxurious decoration.
Comparing living in a villa with my cousin's, I always feel so nondescript. So suddenly I felt that it was quite nice to live in a suite in a high-end community.
However, although he felt a little awkward for no reason, he and Yang Dongxu were cousins and grandfathers after all. So this awkwardness goes away as quickly as it comes.
Compared with the shyness and fear of embarrassment when I came to the villa, I am now more relaxed, and I no longer have as much guilt as before.
So when I heard that I wanted to see a wine cellar with rows of red wines that you only see on TV, I nodded and agreed without any pretense.
