"Your dad is very stubborn and may not be willing to listen to me." The old lady muttered with her lips curled up.
If the old man was willing to listen to her, he would have sold his old house when his grandson was born and went to live with her son in Nancheng. Why should he wait now?
"Mom, just tell Dad that the house in the alley is too small. My baby wants to come back to spend the summer with his grandpa, but it doesn't even have a private room." Chen Meijiao gave her mother-in-law an idea, "It would be great if the real estate tycoon is willing to demolish it and sell it to someone else." ah……"
"Why sell it? I don't agree!"
The old man opened the door and came in, his face ashen.
He said that the family suddenly thought of wishing him a birthday, and even flew to Yanjing from Nancheng to dig a hole and lure him into it!
"Oh dad!" Xu Dingguo hurriedly came out to greet him, "You're here!"
"Hmph! If I don't come, I won't hear that your family is scheming against me!"
"What are you talking about, old man! What's the plan? We are all a family, and my son is busy with other things. If you don't support him, forget it. Asking you to sell a house is like cutting off your flesh! I don't even think about who will grow old in the future. Feed you!”
Like every time before, the old lady liked to point at Grandpa Xu's nose when she scolded him.
Xu Yin took a step forward and pushed the old lady's hand away: "Grandma, if you have something to say, please tell me."
The old lady was furious: "You damn girl, I helped your father every time. When I was a kid, I peed my shit for nothing for you. No one, young or old, has any conscience!"
"Yeah, Yin Yin is so old. We haven't seen her for a few years, and she's already a big girl."
Chen Mei came over with a delicate smile and tried to take Xu Yin's arm affectionately, but Xu Yin dodged her.
The corner of her mouth froze, but the smile on her face did not diminish: "Yinyin, don't you think so? The houses in the old alleys are dark and damp. How can you live in a new high-rise building as comfortable as it is? Please advise the old man, don't be angry with yourself."
"Yes, yes!" The old lady remembered and took over, "Yinyin, didn't you tell grandma that you wanted to live in commercial housing? This is a good opportunity. The developer will demolish it and the money will be much higher than selling it to a private person. Then I can get a big, spacious house.”
"Yinyin wants to live in commercial housing?" When Xu Dingguo heard this, he turned around and wanted to break through from his daughter, "That would be the best thing. Sell the house in the old alley and move to Nancheng with your grandfather! Dad will find a place for you. It’s a good school and it’s not difficult to transfer now.”
"Transfer?" Grandpa Xu sneered upon hearing this, "You asked Yinyin to transfer? She has almost graduated from college and is about to take the postgraduate entrance examination. You want her to transfer? Where to transfer?"
"Ah?" Xu Dingguo looked embarrassed, "You are about to take the postgraduate entrance examination?"
In his impression, the daughter from his ex-wife seems to be still in high school.
"Ah! Are you going to graduate from college?" Chen Meijiao said as if casually, "Xu Dingguo, then you still have to pay living expenses for your daughter every month. Then she will be an adult when she goes to college. It stands to reason that she will be an adult..."
Grandpa Xu gave his daughter-in-law a meaningful look: "As a father, what's wrong with giving living expenses to your daughter? Not to mention that you haven't worked yet, you should give your daughter some pocket money after you work."
Xu Dingguo came to his senses, supported the old man and nodded: "Yes, yes! The money I earn is just for my family."
Chen Meijiao snorted, turned away and stopped talking.
"Dad, sit down and talk, sit down and talk. Didn't you say that Mr. Gu is here too? Where are the others?"
"I asked him to go back! This scene looks like the Hongmen Banquet, why did you ask him to come! Oh, you can't persuade me, and you still want to start from him? Then you should invite everyone in our alley here, why just give him I’m celebrating my birthday alone!”
"Dad, what you said..." Xu Dingguo wiped his face, "Let me tell you honestly, my business has encountered some obstacles and I urgently need Lan Di's favor. Lan Di's boss has always wanted to take over Shijingfang Alley. That piece of land, you see, the demolition is all done according to the contract. We won’t suffer any loss, so why should we insist on it? Go back to the neighbors, Dad, please make peace with me..."
"What the hell! Cough cough cough -" Grandpa Xu coughed in anger.
Xu Yin hurriedly unscrewed the kettle she carried and poured a cup of lily tea for her grandfather.
Grandpa Xu took two sips of tea and finally felt better. He continued to scold this unfilial son: "You bastard! You sell the ancestral property as soon as you ask for it. You have been a traitor before!"
"Dad..." Xu Dingguo looked complicated, "I have no choice but to get stuck. Please help me."
"Others are easy to discuss, so there is no need to discuss this matter."
"But this is the only thing I need your help with now."
"Then we can't reach an agreement." Grandpa Xu pulled out his chair and stood up, "Yinyin, let's go! What a birthday meal, I think it's an irritating meal. He was so angry that if I put him in the coffin earlier, he would get what he wanted!"
"dad!"
"dad!"
"Old man!"
The old lady chased her for two steps, then turned back angrily and stopped her son who was about to chase him out:
"Ignore him! Go after him and give him face. Ignore him for two days. After calming down, he will help you. You are his only son, who will help you if he doesn't help you? The house will be given to you in the end. If you sell it early, you won't be able to sell it later. It’s all the same, he’ll figure it out.”
Xu Dingguo thought that the old man was very angry at the moment and it would be useless to pursue him, so he did not pursue him.
The waiter came in and asked when the food would be served.
"Serve the food, serve the food! I'm hungry!" Xu Jiabao kicked the table legs and yelled, holding his mobile phone in both hands and playing games.
"Is Jiabao hungry? Then let's eat! Don't worry about that damn old man."
Although Xu Dingguo didn't have much appetite, he still had to eat, so he asked the waiter to serve the food: "Those who haven't eaten should leave."
"Sorry sir, it's all gone."
"...Okay, let's bring it here! If it doesn't come within half an hour, I'll call your manager!"
The family here, except for the heartless Xu Jiabao, who was eating happily and playing games, the others were holding back their anger.
In that compartment, the grandfather and grandson had just left the box when they were invited to the next door by Gu Xijin.
Grandpa Xu was surprised when he saw the old man Gu drinking tea in the box next door:
"Lao Gu, why are you still here? Didn't I ask you and Xi Xi to go back first? You heard it, right? My unfilial son came to force me to sell my ancestral home. Not only that, he also wanted me to persuade you. Neighbors, let’s sell our houses to those blue developers together. Humph! Demolition sounds nice! In fact, it means occupying our houses and robbing our land!”
"Okay, okay, just don't sell it. Being so angry will hurt your liver. Sit down and sit down. I asked Xi Xi to look at how many things I ordered. I'll put some food in my stomach first. Is there anything else you want to eat? Yin Yin , you order a few dishes for your grandpa, he is the oldest birthday boy today, stick to what he likes! My treat!"
"How can I invite you? Originally, we should have eaten at my house at this time!"
"Do you have enough food at home? We agreed today, I'll treat you! It's rare for me to treat you once, so don't compete with me! If you want to treat me, there will be a chance next time."
"Okay, okay!" Grandpa Xu laughed and shook his head when he heard his old friend say this, and stopped competing with him to pay the bill.
