Chapter 607: Too Many Children Are Troublesome
The old lady of the Xiao family has not cared much about family affairs in the past few years, but has devoted herself to supporting the elderly in Yuquan Mountain. In fact, the third generation of the Xiao family is doing even better than the second generation, and the third generation has risen, and he, the old guy, is naturally going to be behind the scenes. Moreover, he is getting older and older, about to be 100 years old, which is considered to be a long life among the leaders of the older generation in China.
Most of the characters of the same generation as him have withered, and Old Man Xu and Old Man Xie both passed away a few years ago, which made Old Lady Xiao's mentality also change. In the past, when he was fine, he could still find two people to play chess, but now it is separated by yin and yang, whenever he sees chess, he always can't help but think of those people before, and over time he will no longer play these things.
Xiao Jiguo and the others are all seven or eight years old this year, and they are gradually sensible, and they no longer let their grandfather urge them to study, and even they take the initiative to urge their younger brothers and sisters to study?
"Grandpa, how do you look at my military body boxing?" Xiao Jizong's offering of treasure asked.
"And me, and me." Xiao Yuqian hurriedly asked.
Xiao Yuqian is the daughter born to Xiao Kedi and Shen Piaopiao, and now she is five years old.
"Okay, it's all good, there's sugar to eat later." Looking at the granddaughters, great-grandchildren, and great-granddaughters in front of him, Old Lady Xiao said with a smile. Although there were times when he complained that Ye Tianxiong was too much, seeing so many smart great-grandchildren, the old man's heart was still sweet. In Yanjing, who has such a blessing as him.
Just when Old Lady Xiao was happy, Fang Qixiong came over with the medicine, and immediately persuaded: "Old chief, you better drink the medicine first." ”
"If you don't drink it, I'm not sick, why should I drink this?" Old Lady Xiao's face changed rapidly, and he was furious at the moment.
The old lady is getting older and older, and her temper is getting bigger and bigger. If you want to persuade him to drink medicine before, he will definitely not refuse. However, now it is not possible, every time you want him to drink medicine, it is impossible not to persuade him for ten minutes.
"I'm wrong, old lady, this is not medicine, this is a tonic."
"Don't lie to me, I smell the medicine from a long distance, and what supplements do you say, it's just." "Really, you don't believe me to drink it for you."
As he spoke, Fang Qixiong was about to drink with a spoon, but Old Lady Xiao waved his hand and said lightly: "Xiao Fang, put it down, I'll drink it later." During this time, it's hard for you. ”
Hearing the old lady's words, Fang Qixiong's nose was sad. The rest of the Xiao family is relatively busy with their work, and every time they come over, they accompany the old lady to talk, and then leave. Over time, the old lady was also very uncomfortable in her heart.
"Father." Just when Mrs. Xiao was angry, Xiao Kewen, the second child of the Xiao family, came over with his wife. Among the four brothers of the Xiao family, only Xiao Kewen's time is sufficient, and he must be archaeological, and most of the time is still his own.
Glancing at Xiao Kewen, Old Lady Xiao nodded, then picked up the potion on the table and drank it. After drinking, he said lightly: "Old man, my life is worth it." With your four brothers, the four brothers are all more competitive. The eldest and third are keen on the army, and they have not embarrassed my old man since they joined the army. Second, you are keen on archaeology, but I still think you are not doing your job properly. Do people have their own aspirations? You can't force it. However, you kid didn't embarrass me, and the public voice in the archaeological community is still good.
What about the fourth? In other respects, there is no such thing as not joining the army according to the old man's wishes. Of course, now that I think about it, maybe his original choice was right, Tianxiong did not recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors before, and the expenses of one of our Xiao family's huge families were provided by him, which is not easy. Speaking of this, Old Lady Xiao stroked Xiao Jiming's head beside him and motioned for him to play with his other brothers and sisters. Xiao Jiming was obedient, and left at the moment.
"Second child, the second generation of our family is considered to be a promising second generation of red. Although the third child was silent for a while, he still didn't dare to be careless about his work. It's time for your eldest brother to retire at the end of this term, and it's time for people who are sixty or seventy years old to come down and rest. As for the third? It's almost there, so don't occupy the pit and don't. Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, just take care of their own affairs. ”
Xiao Kewen always felt that there was something wrong with his father today, and his words began to be reversed. I wanted to persuade him to rest for a while, but who knew that the other party waved his hand and said, "I'm old, but I'm not confused." Although your second child has no intention of military politics, and he hasn't even brought Fu Kui well, if it weren't for the fact that our Xiao family's manhood has an iron-clad spirit, coupled with Tianxiong as a reference, I believe he would not have made such great progress. A cadre in his thirties at the deputy department level is still making too rapid progress, let him work in the position of deputy department level for a few more years.
Of course, you should be uncomfortable in your heart as a father, and you must think about why Tianxiong's child can be the mayor at the age of thirty, why can't the thirty-three-year-old Fukui do it? "Don't dare, father, son doesn't have that idea. Tianxiong is a genius who is rare to see in a hundred years, although Fukui is good, but compared to him, it is too far behind him, and it is also good for him to let him work in the deputy hall for a few more years. Seeing his father questioning like this, Xiao Kewen quickly explained with a smile.
Xiao Kewen's wife heard the old lady's words, but she was a little unhappy in her heart. How big a gap can there be between his son and Ye Tianxiong, why does someone dare to be a mayor at thirty, and his son is thirty-three, and he is still the deputy mayor?
"Huh? Dulicitous, don't I know you yet? Hell-bent on making Fu Kui rise faster and surpass Tianxiong. Why don't you think carefully about what is the benefit of making too fast progress for Fukui? Look at Tianxiong, he was not a department-level cadre two years ago, and if he wants to improve now, he will definitely be hit by others. Instead of being sharp, it's better to keep your eyes on it? Still can't see anything? When the old man is gone, and the eldest and third go down, you will be able to see it. Once a son of heaven and a courtier, why don't you understand when people go to tea and cool? The old lady leaned on her crutches and said angrily.
"Father, don't be angry, we know it's wrong, and we won't do anything in private in the future." Thinking of the doctor's instructions, Xiao Kewen and his wife hurriedly persuaded them.
Old lady Xiao glanced at the husband and wife, and then said nothing more? but where he went behind closed doors.
"Old man, you better go back to the house and lie down, they still have to wait for a meeting to arrive?" Seeing the old man who was recuperating behind closed doors, Fang Qixiong persuaded.
Old lady Xiao was not moved, but continued to pretend to sleep there, which made Fang Qixiong very helpless, so he had to ask someone to put a blanket on the old man to prevent the old man from getting cold.
"Xiaoru, you should also take care of Tianxiong, this kid really doesn't know how to converge, if this continues, our family can form a company?" Go to the old lady's place to recuperate, Xiao Kedi said dissatisfiedly to Liu Yuru.
Whenever he was eating and drinking with other people, his old comrades-in-arms, who had been on an equal footing, would always joke that he had given birth to a son of a cow. A woman who can't handle anything, as long as he occupies it over there, people will definitely throw it into their arms.
Although the other party made fun of him, in fact, he knew very well in his heart that Ye Tianxiong was so fraternal, and the women in the family were almost enough for four tables of mahjong. There are many women, and there are naturally a lot of children, and it is estimated that Quan Yanjing will not be able to find a family with such a child.
"Okay, Kedi, hasn't Tianxiong been very restrained all these years? Besides, Tianxiong looks like a jade tree and likes women, even if Xiaoru cares about it, what can he do? Seeing that Xiao Kedi was a little heavy, Shen Piaopiao immediately persuaded him.
Hearing the words of her father-in-law and mother-in-law, Liu Yuru could only smile bitterly, she wanted to ask about this. However, in the end, she couldn't harden her heart, and besides, everyone was a woman, so she naturally couldn't bear it. It is precisely because of this reason that the women in the family have basically gathered enough mahjong for four tables.
"Hmph, Yushu Linfeng, how did I give birth to such a son?" Xiao Kedi said helplessly.
When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law heard Xiao Kedi's helpless tone, they didn't know what to say except for laughing? They can't stop this kind of thing.
The second and third generations of the Xiao family have gathered surprisingly unanimously this year, this is not like in previous years, this one has something missing, and that one has something missing. The old lady just glanced at everyone, and then closed her eyelids. Ye Tianxiong was responsible for carrying the old lady back to the room to rest, and checked the old lady's body by the way.
"Tianxiong, don't be sad, the old chief's mental state is still good." Seeing Ye Tianxiong's expression a little sad, Fang Qixiong persuaded.
"Uncle Fang, how is the old lady's appetite lately? Are you a little anorexic, and sometimes you often repeat a few words or do a thing repeatedly? After covering the old lady with the quilt, Ye Tianxiong asked with concern.
Fang Qixiong nodded, what Ye Tianxiong said was exactly what happened to the old lady recently. Seeing Fang Qixiong nodding, Ye Tianxiong became even more sad, and then said sadly: "Grandpa may have Alzheimer's disease." ”
"Won't it?" Fang Qixiong said with a look of disbelief.
"This still needs to be observed for a while, and it's hard to say anything now?" Ye Tianxiong said lightly.
The second and third generations of the Xiao family rarely get together, and while they have time now, most of them talk about politics and things in the army. The women of the Xiao family went to the kitchen in the back to cook very consciously.
"Daddy, give me the ball."
"Give it to me."
"Brother, pass me the ball."
"Uncle Five, give me the ball."
After eating, what should the others do? Ye Tianxiong pushed away other things and hid in the villa to play with the child. It can be regarded as a vacation time, and he should do his duty as a father.
Not only did he just get the ball, and the children asked him for it. looked at this, and then looked at which one, so that Ye Tianxiong really didn't know what to do?
"Go and grab it yourselves." Ye Tianxiong, who didn't know what to do after thinking for a while, hurriedly threw the ball away and let them grab it by themselves.
Looking at Ye Tianxiong who was walking towards him, Xiao Fukui said with a smile: "What? Playing with children, do you feel how young you are? ”
"I have this feeling, I have to hide my feelings when I stay in the officialdom, and I will slowly get a lot older. Third brother, I heard that you will be promoted to deputy secretary after the year? Ye Tianxiong asked.
"That's all rumors, grandpa, and I want to stay in the position of deputy mayor for a few more years. In the past few years, I have been promoted too quickly, and he doesn't want me to stay in the main hall level position for a few more years like you. Looking at the blue sky in the distance, Xiao Fukui said faintly.
The deputy secretary, although he is also a deputy department-level cadre, is just a little short of the main department-level. I think that it was only two or three years since Ye Tianxiong was promoted from the deputy department to the main department level. Now that it was his turn, he was denied by his family, which made Xiao Fukui naturally feel a little gada in his heart.
"Third brother, there are some things that Grandpa can see very accurately. Take me as an example, outsiders seem to be the mayor of the department at a young age, and if it is glamorous, they don't know that there are too many people staring at it. The two deputy secretaries of our city always want me to make mistakes? If I make the slightest mistake, they'll find a way to get me away. Looking at Xiao Fukui, Ye Tianxiong said helplessly.
In the eyes of outsiders, Xiao Fukui was promoted to a deputy department-level cadre at a young age, which is enough to make others envious, but compared to his younger cousin, Xiao Fukui knows that he is not a little worse. If it weren't for the other party's secret move, he might have died in the position of secretary of the county party committee.
Sometimes, he is still very envious and jealous of this young cousin. Now hearing the other party say this, Xiao Fukui realized that the other party was also moving forward under a lot of pressure.
"Uncle San, Dad, how about we come to the game and play football together?" Just when Xiao Fukui and Ye Tianxiong were speechless, Xiao Jiguo didn't know where to come out of nowhere and invited.
Do the two really want to refuse? Who knows, these children surrounded the two of them together, and it seems that if they don't agree, the other party may really use force.
"Okay, when the time comes, you lose, don't say that we adults bully children." Xiao Fukui pinched Xiao Jiguo's little nose and quipped.
"Hmph, grandpa said that a manly husband doesn't shed blood and tears, so I won't cry? When the time comes, Uncle San, you and my father lose, don't hide in the bed and cry. Xiao Jiguo fought back.
Hearing the child's innocent words, the two really couldn't cry or laugh, so they quickly took off their coats and went to play football with the children. All of a sudden, the courtyard was full of joy.
