Chapter 61: Gathering Far Away
"Then let grandpa come over and relax. There is nothing to do in Baoding. Xi Yizheng proposed, Old Man Xi wanted to come and live, but because of the eldest aunt's family, it was difficult to take the initiative to speak, but if Xi's father and Xi's mother opened their mouths to invite, they would not disagree. After all, I'm here to live at my son's house.
"Well, go back and ask your dad to pick him up. Stay long and stay as soon as your grandfather himself. Xi's mother agreed, "By the way, I heard your aunt say that you have a boyfriend?" Xi's mother thought of Wang Wanru's words, saying that Zheng Zheng already had a boyfriend, and said that her daughter flew on the branch and became a phoenix, but the other party is the leading real estate predator in China. The tone is snarky enough to smoke a room full of people. Xi's mother didn't believe her words, so she didn't care much at the time, and dealt with things casually. However, since I think about it, it is more reassuring to ask clearly.
"How can there be, you also know that the eldest aunt's mouth is not reliable." Xi Yizheng pouted, "She can always say black to white." ”
"Haha, I don't believe it either. If you had a boyfriend, Mom would have told me as soon as possible, right? There are many words" Xi's mother smiled heartily, she didn't understand her concubine's thoughts, she obviously praised her daughter's strength, and secretly hoped that her daughter would be embarrassed. In front of so many relatives and friends, the tone of the words is not at all pleasant.
"That's it." Xi Yizheng climbed Xi's neck and said coquettishly.
"Seriously, if you really want to fall in love, your father and I won't object, after all, the girl is not in the middle. What's more, Mom believes that you will definitely take care of your studies. It's just that don't be bullied. Our daughter deserves the best. Xi's mother patted the back of her daughter's hand, half joking and half comforting.
"Not really, Mom. What the eldest aunt said must be Huo Jun, the president of Huo's Enterprise, right? He came with the teacher. He was good friends with the teacher and took care of me more. As for boyfriends and girlfriends, that's a completely endless matter. Xi Yizheng briefly talked about Huo Jun, although it is not clear whether he has a heart for him, but he has not thought of falling in love with him at present.
"Okay, mom, don't you just ask" Xi's mother saw that her daughter was really anxious, and she didn't tease her anymore.
In the next few days, taking advantage of the good weather, the Xi family migrated on a large scale again. Moved from the east of Chang'an Avenue, the busiest street in Beijing, to the sparsely populated western suburbs manor.
I originally planned to sell the house in Huayiyuan, but on the one hand, I was reluctant, after all, it took a lot of effort to decorate and build it at the beginning, and on the other hand, considering that Xi Yixiao is not young, he will talk about marriage in less than two years, not to mention that after taking over Fang's Electronics, he has long working hours, and he can live in Huayiyuan when he works overtime at night. So he kept it for him as a marriage house.
So, only Xi's parents moved to Yuanyizhuang first, Xi Yizheng and Xi Yidi still live in Huayi Garden with Xi Yixiao due to school reasons, and only returned to Yuanyizhuang to reunite with their parents on holidays.
Lin Bo was left to take care of the yard to take care of the three brothers and sisters, and Sister-in-law Fang was persuaded by Xi Yizheng to move to Yuanyizhuang with Xi's mother. The reason is that her cooking skills are better than Xi's mother, and she can also shoulder the breakfast and dinner of the three brothers and sisters. And Yuanyizhuang will usher in grandparents and grandfathers in the future, and Xi's mother alone can't stop their pickiness about food.
With the arrival of late autumn, Beijing has already drifted a few snow particles. The farms of Yuanyizhuang have been harvested, and the farmers have cleared their warehouses and prepared all kinds of harvesting tools. Prepare for a week of good weather.
"Wait for the rice and wheat to be harvested, pile up some fertilizer to raise, and then take care of the pharmacy when spring begins. In the next few months, it was freezing cold, and I still had to spend the winter at home. Dad Xi looked at the gray sky outside the window and muttered to himself.
"That is, do you still think that after harvesting the grain, you will plant medicinal herbs, and the medicinal materials operated by the pharmaceutical factory in the early stage, aren't they all prepared for you? I'm afraid it's a year's limit. Xi's mother ironed her clothes and laughed at Xi's father for not understanding farming.
"I'm not afraid of waste. Look at this large area of land sitting there, how long it is to endure the winter. Dad Xi rubbed his hands, and the indoor floor heating made him so hot that he took off his coat and sweated slightly, "Otherwise, let's build a greenhouse even if we change Ming'er." We are not afraid of running out of supply all year round. ”
"Well, you have to discuss this matter with your son and daughter. I don't understand anyway. Xi's mother glanced at him, she was really getting more and more energetic, and she didn't know if the follow-up would be smooth with such a big pharmaceutical factory. A good retirement day, however, is uneasy.
Dad Xi grinned flatteringly at his wife, didn't he think it was too boring to just retire and do nothing. Anyway, his daughter has medicinal seeds to cultivate, and now she has signed a long-term and stable supply agreement with the special bank group, and she is not afraid that there will be no place to sell. The herbs for a long time are provided. When the operation of the pharmaceutical factory is on track, he can still live a leisurely life.
On a sunny weekend, the Xi family settled down in Yuanyizhuang. In the evening of the same day, the farmers who contracted the grange in the village were invited to open two tables for the new house wine. The delicious ingredients produced by the Xuan Bracelet were matched with the fine wine brewed by themselves, and everyone at the table was drunk. Xi's father also stood at the round table proudly, vowing to make the Xuanpin Pharmaceutical Factory the largest Chinese patent medicine factory in China for the benefit of the people. And a few drunken farmers also shouted with big tongues and shouted that they would promise to take good care of the medicine garden in the coming year, and strive for the drug delivery factory to provide the best medicinal materials for cultivation. Be sure not to disappoint the boss
Haha, Xi Yizheng leaned forward and leaned back with laughter. Xi's mother also smiled and wiped her tears. I can't wait for a camera to shoot this scene, and put it on when Xi's father is in a big position in the future, which will definitely make him languish immediately.
The new house wine ended in a chaotic stream of gibberish. After cleaning up the mess, Xi Yizheng put on his coat, leaned on the railing in front of his house, looked around at the cold scenery of winter in the courtyard, and smiled. Perhaps, the life of this life is bound to be complete.
Before the winter vacation of the Xi Yizheng brothers and sisters, Yuanyizhuang ushered in several elders.
Mr. and Mrs. Fang seem to be planning to enjoy their old age in Yuanyi, and almost all their belongings have been moved. Mama Xi led the sisters-in-law who took care of Zhuangzi to clean up for two days before tidying up the suite left for Mr. and Mrs. Fang.
"I said Dad, are you going to sell that house in the old alley? There are no mistakes, how can I move the unused belongings? I'm not tired and panicked," Xi's mother hung her arms and said angrily to the master who was leisurely sipping tea.
"What are you talking about, this girl, but those are treasures, can you not move here" The old man immediately blew his beard and glared when he heard this, "Besides, your mother said that you have a lot of horizontal and vertical rooms here and a good scenery, so we don't plan to move away again." The house in the old alley is up to you whether it sells or not. Anyway, the name on the deed is yours. ”
Xi's mother secretly rolled her eyes, "Okay, you two will settle down here." There are a lot of things to pass the time in the horizontal and vertical Zhuangzi, and I am not afraid of your loneliness. ”
"Huh? It's not that my father-in-law is going to move in, have you come? Old Man Fang asked casually, on the day of the opening of the Xuanpin Pharmaceutical Factory, his granddaughter invited them all to live here. He discussed with his wife that he wanted to come, and the old man of the Xi family also wanted to come, but it seemed that his eldest daughter-in-law didn't seem to be a good person, so it was estimated that he couldn't come. But then again, when you're old and you're alone, what else can't you think about, where you want to live, and you still don't see people's faces. Anyway, Xi Tai is still in charge of the matter at the moment.
"Well, I said it was two days. I asked Yi Xiao to pick him up. Xi's mother peeled a few crystal pears for the two elders, "Mom and Dad, you have two days off, and when the zither is on winter vacation, I will take you to the fruit forest in Zhuangzi for a walk." A lot of fruits are ripe, it's fun" Xi's mother thought that on the day she first moved to Yuanyizhuang, she and her daughter went to the fruit forest to wander, and actually picked up a bunch of ripe fruits everywhere, persimmons, apples, dates, apricots, etc., as long as the fruits ripened in autumn in the north, they can be found here. The developer who designed the orchard was quite relaxed.
"We'll do it ourselves, don't worry about us. Zheng Zheng has to rest after the holiday, doesn't it mean that he still has to go to the Oriental teacher's house to learn carving? Holidays are also not allowed to live in peace. It's too tight for yourself. Mrs. Fang said distressedly, working hard for her granddaughter.
"She likes it herself. If you don't like it, it's useless to force her. Xi's mother shook her head helplessly. Neither of them nor their husband nor wife forced their daughter to do anything. Although since the accident a few years ago, his daughter's study plan has been as tight as clockwork, and even they have reflected on it several times, whether they forced it. However, seeing that her daughter is enjoying learning and the results are amazing, it can be said that she knows what to learn, and it doesn't necessarily mean that she is tired, so she will go with her.
"I think Zheng is much more sensible than the daughter of your uncle's family, look at your niece, she was dressed like something that day, where is there a little bit of a student." Old Madam Fang shook her head, "And it's not polite at all, and I don't greet people when I see them." Is this still a lady cultivated by a wealthy family? I think it's about the same as those third-rate dancers. "Don't look at Mrs. Fang, who is usually virtuous and gentle, and there is no ambiguity at all when she criticizes people.
"Okay, what do you do with this, what does it have to do with what people are wearing. Losing face is also a shame for the old man of the Xi family. Old Man Fang's face was full of schadenfreude.
"What's the shame on me?" A neutral male voice came from outside the door, and the heavy velvet hanging curtain was lifted, and it was the old man Xi.
"Yo, my father-in-law is here, why don't you pour tea for your father-in-law" Old man Fang was not embarrassed by the other party's eavesdropping, and teased his daughter.
"Dad, you're here alone?" When Xi's mother saw him enter the door naked, she asked in surprise, "You don't plan to bring your luggage to stay for two days?" ”
"How can you not bring it, Ah Xiao will take it to clean up." Old Man Xi replied with a smile, "You still said that I plan to live here." ”
"Yes, you can stay as long as you want." Xi's mother didn't mind at all, but hoped that they would both stay for a long time so that they could be each other's companions.
"Listen, your daughter will make the old man happy," Old Man Xi pointed at Xi's mother and smiled at the old man and said.
"That's, and I don't see who taught it." Old Man Fang is not thin-skinned.
Seeing that they were joking and chatting with each other, Xi's mother filled up the tea, asked Sister-in-law Fang to send some snacks suitable for the elderly, and she withdrew to clean up the room for Old Man Xi.
