Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

"Uncle Wang, Uncle Taozi."

"Dad, Uncle Wang."

"Uncle Wang, Uncle Taozi."

"Pingping, Yiheng, Hehe, why are you here at the airport?"

After picking up Ding Baosong, He Changfu, Peng Jianguo and their group from the airport, Wang Aiguo and Peng Tao came to the airport again.

Ran Xiaoyi and the others will come over soon, and Wang Aiguo and Peng Tao will come to pick them up.

This was the task assigned to the two brothers by Yang Yukun, to help pick up and drop off guests.

Not long after the two arrived at the airport, they discovered that Yang Ping, Peng Yiheng and Chen He had also arrived at the airport.

"Come and pick up my comrades and classmates from other places." Yang Ping looked at the time: "My comrades should be arriving soon. This is the flight they are taking."

At this time.

The airport broadcast announced that a flight was about to land. This flight was the one that several of his comrades were on.

"Here we are, Xuefeng, Jianbin, Lao Liang, Lao Sun, over here."

Seeing several comrades appear in his sight, Yang Ping hurriedly waved to them.

"mediocre."

"We have worked hard on this journey and have come all the way to attend your wedding. We are very sorry for the trouble."

"We have to come to your wedding. You promised to introduce the bridesmaids to us. You can't fool us."

"Brother, can I fool you? The bridesmaids are all my wife's high school and college classmates, and they are all very beautiful girls."

"You don't have a boyfriend, right?"

"I've asked my wife about it, and several bridesmaids haven't found a boyfriend yet. You guys better do your best, or you won't be so embarrassed when you see the girls that you won't even dare to speak."

"Certainly not."

"Let me introduce you. This is Uncle Wang and Uncle Taozi, my father's best friends. These two are Uncle Taozi's son, Brother Yiheng, and my fourth aunt's cousin Chen He." Yang Ping introduced the two parties: "My comrades Yang Xuefeng, Yang Jianbin, Liang Wei, and Sun Dong."

"Uncle Wang, Uncle Taozi, Brother Yiheng, cousin, hello."

"Hello, welcome to the imperial capital." Wang Aiguo said, "Pingping, when will your other classmates arrive?"

"It will take a while. It will probably take around 2:30 to 4 o'clock."

Yang Ping has several college classmates coming over, all of whom are his classmates at the University of Science and Technology of China.

Not all students at the University of Science and Technology of China have military status and will become a soldier.

The next few classmates who will come over are all his good friends in college. Two of them are active military personnel, and the others work in public departments or state-owned enterprises. There are also two who have started their own businesses.

Several classmates are not on the same flight, but are coming from different places, and will arrive between 2:30 and 4:00.

"Take your comrades back first, we'll just wait here."

Wang Aiguo asked Yang Ping to take his comrades back first, as they were at the airport.

Peng Yiheng said, "Pingping, you guys go back first. He He and I are here."

"Okay, Uncle Wang, Uncle Taozi, Brother Yiheng, He He, thank you for your hard work."

It would take nearly an hour for other students to arrive, so Yang Ping first took a few comrades back to Sijiu City.

After several classmates arrived, Peng Yiheng and Chen He were responsible for sending them to the Wangfujing branch of Zhiweilou Restaurant.

"Old Wang, can you still recognize Ran Xiaoyi and the others?"

Peng Tao held up a sign and looked inside the airport.

The flight that Ran Xiaoyi was on has landed, but after not seeing his old classmates for more than 30 years, he can no longer remember their voices, faces and smiles.

"I can't recognize it." Wang Aiguo shook his head.

He now recognizes his old classmates Yang Yukun, Xu Jingping, Ding Baosong, He Changfu, Peng Jianguo, Peng Tao, as well as Hao Aiguo, Zheng Jianguo, Cheng Zhongguo, and Zhou Xiafang who have been working in the capital.

As for the other classmates in the class, even if they stood in front of him face to face now, and were asked to identify people by comparing them with a group photo taken thirty years ago, he probably wouldn't be able to tell who was who.

"Is that it?"

"She looks a bit like her, walking towards us. It can't be her."

"No."

"What about that one?"

"Not at all."

"Teacher Peng, please hold the sign higher so that it is more visible and our old classmates can see it."

"My hands are sore from lifting it, you lift it, you are taller than me."

Peng Tao handed the sign with the person's name on it to Wang Aiguo, and his hands were sore from holding it for a long time.

"Hehe, you kid, do it. Young people should be considerate of us old people and respect the elderly and love the young."

Wang Aiguo handed the sign to Chen He and asked the boy to hold it.

"Got it."

Chen He put his phone back into his pocket and held up the sign obediently.

After a while, a couple who looked to be in their 50s or 60s came out of the airport, saw the sign with Ran Xiaoyi's name on it, and walked towards them.

"Teacher Peng, this is definitely Ran Xiaoyi. The man next to her is her lover. I have some impression of her."

"Nonsense." The person was almost in front of them, and anyone with a discerning eye could guess that it must be Ran Xiaoyi and her husband.

"Hello, are you here to welcome guests to Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping's home?"

Seeing the sign with her name on it at the airport exit, Ran Xiaoyi and Zheng Chengyun walked over and asked politely.

Xu Jingping told them that he would arrange for someone to pick them up at the airport.

Wang Aiguo smiled and said, "Ran Xiaoyi?"

"Correct."

"Old classmates, can you still recognize who we are?"

"We are college classmates?"

"A serious classmate."

"Let me guess, are you in the same dormitory with Yang Yukun? Did you have the best relationship with Yang Yukun when you were in college?"

"Correct."

"I know Peng Jianguo and Peng Tao, but I forgot the names of the others."

Ran Xiaoyi really couldn't call out the names of the two old classmates in front of her. After all, she hadn't seen them for more than 30 years, and her memory of them had long been blurred.

But she still remembers an uncle and nephew in her class during college, named Peng Jianguo and Peng Tao. She was quite impressed by these two people, after all, it was rare to see an uncle and nephew going to college together.

Peng Tao smiled and said, "Hello, Ran Xiaoyi, I'm Peng Tao. I'm glad you still remember me and my uncle."

"Hello, classmate Peng Tao, time flies by so fast. If I met you on the street, I wouldn't recognize you." Ran Xiaoyi smiled and said, "Then who is this old classmate?"

Wang Aiguo kept the question a secret: "Guess who I am. If you can guess who I am, I will treat you to a meal later."

"I really can't guess." Ran Xiaoyi couldn't even remember the names of other old classmates, so how could she guess who the old classmate in front of her was.

"Do you still remember Wang Aiguo?"

"I seem to have some impression that there is such a classmate in my class."

"I am Wang Aiguo."

"Hello, Wang Aiguo, it's great to see you again."

"Old classmate, I'm very happy to have the opportunity to meet you again. Is this your lover?"

"My lover Zheng Chengyun."

"Hello."

"Greetings."

Peng Tao said: "This is my son Yiheng."

Peng Yiheng said, "Uncle and aunt, hello."

Ran Xiaoyi said: "Hello, young man, are you married?"

"Done."

Wang Aiguo said, "You already have two children. Ran Xiaoyi, you are also grandparents, right?"

"My child got married in 2010, and my grandson will be two years old soon."

"congratulations."

"Student Wang Aiguo, what about you?"

"I'm a grandfather now. My grandson is already nine years old."

In the first month of 2003, my son and daughter-in-law got married, and in the first month of 2004, they gave birth to a big fat boy.

This kid is not at home now. He is at his grandparents' house in Gusu.

After school starts, Wang Aiguo will go to his in-laws' home in Suzhou to pick up his grandson for school.

After Ran Xiaoyi and her husband arrived, Yao Yulan, Zhu Jing, Ming Xiaofen and others would not arrive for a while, so the old classmates chatted and reminisced while waiting for Yao Yulan and others.

During this period, several of Yang Ping's classmates who came from other places also arrived one after another.

"Jingjing is here."

"Is that classmate Zhu Jing?"

"Yes, Jingjing, here." Ran Xiaoyi waved at Zhu Jing.

"Yiyi." Zhu Jing also saw Ran Xiaoyi at the exit, waved and walked quickly towards Ran Xiaoyi: "Yulan and Xiaofen haven't arrived yet?"

"They will take a while, Jingjing, you come alone, isn't Old Wu here with you two?"

"Old Wu is too busy with work to come, so you'd better be at ease. Your old Zheng will accompany you wherever you go."

"Lao Zheng and I both retired this year, so we took this opportunity to visit the capital."

Ran Xiaoyi has officially retired from her teaching position, and Zheng Chengyun, who is a few years older than her, also retired this year.

After retirement, they had nothing to do, so the couple came to the capital to attend a wedding banquet, planning to stay in the capital for a few days before going back.

"I'm retiring this year, but it'll take another two or three years for Old Wu in my family to retire."

Zhu Jing is 55 years old this year. She has worked as a teacher for 32 years and has now officially retired to enjoy her retirement life.

As for her husband, it will take a few more years for him to retire, otherwise he would be able to accompany her to the capital for the wedding banquet. (End of this chapter)
