Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

"Dad, Mom, are you the only ones at home? Where are Grandpa, Grandma and Little Corn, on the tenth day of the first lunar month?"

After Yang Xu and Zheng Zhenbang got off the plane, they met Yang Xiuwen and Peng Yiheng at the airport.

Uncle Ding and his family came over today, and the two of them went to the airport to pick them up.

The two waited at the airport for more than half an hour, but Uncle Ding and Uncle He did not show up. Instead, Wang Youzhi and Yu Yafang arrived first. It took another half an hour before Uncle Ding and Uncle He arrived.

Uncle Peng and his team would take some time to arrive, so Yang Xiuwen and Peng Yiheng sent them back to Sijiu City first.

After returning to Sijiucheng, Yang Xu and Zheng Zhenbang did not go back to their parents-in-law in Shijingshan, nor did they go back to their home in Huafengyuan Community, but came directly to their parents.

"Grandpa, grandma and Chushi are at Huafengyuan. Xiao Yumi and Feifei went to Gusu and will not be back until tomorrow afternoon."

The little girl came back yesterday morning.

Early this morning, the little girl and her son-in-law went to Gusu again.

I found a Suzhou embroidery lady to embroider the groom's suit and wedding dress. Yesterday afternoon, I received news from Suzhou that the groom's suit and wedding dress had been embroidered.

After breakfast, the little girl and her son-in-law set off for Suzhou to pick up the wedding dress and the groom's suit.

At the same time, we made an appointment with a photographer from Mona Lisa Photo Studio Suzhou branch to take wedding photos in Suzhou.

“Old Zheng, let’s go back to Huafengyuan first to visit grandpa, grandma and Chushi.”

"it is good."

Yang Yukun said: "Don't forget to go back to Shijingshan to visit your parents-in-law."

"Let's go home and put down our luggage first, say hello to our grandparents, and then we'll go back to Shijingshan."

"car key."

Yang Yukun threw the car keys to the eldest girl and asked her and her son-in-law to drive back.

Zheng Zhenbang said: "Dad, Mom, let's go back first and come back later."

"Go back and call your parents over to have dinner together."

"Okay, Uncle Ding, Uncle He, you guys continue chatting while we go back and take a look."

"Slow down."

"Got it."

Yang Xu drove his father's car and went back to Huafengyuan Community with Zheng Zhenbang to put their luggage.

I went to my younger brother and sister-in-law's house to visit my grandparents and Mao Luzhu, and then went back to Shijingshan to visit my parents-in-law.

"Let's go Yiheng, the two of us will continue to pick people up at the airport."

"Walk."

Yang Xiuwen and Peng Yiheng continued to go to the airport to pick up relatives and friends who had come from other places for Uncle Kun and Aunt Kun.

The two of them were in charge of the airport, while Chen He and a few others were in charge of the train station. Some guests came by train.

"Lao Ding, Lao He, just the two of you come over here, where are my sister-in-law and the others?"

Ding Baosong said: "There is a wedding banquet at her parents' home, and she has to go there.

Jianhua is not free these days as he is very busy with work.

Xiangxiang couldn't come either, so Xiao Guo went to his uncle's house to pick up his daughter-in-law.

So I am the only one here, I am the representative of our family."

He Changfu said: "The old lady is not in good health, Chunhua has to stay at home to take care of her.

Zhihua is still in Dong'ou and hasn't come back yet. His company won't have a holiday for another two days.

Zhiguo is in the army and can't make it back, so let me say sorry to you.

Huihui has been busy these past two days and can't come over."

"Lao He, is the old lady okay?"

"It's an old problem. Bronchitis. I cough every winter."

"Have you been to the hospital?"

"I've seen it, and I can't get rid of it."

"Why don't we bring the old lady to the capital to see her? I'll arrange for a medical expert to take a good look at her."

"She won't come. Before, Zhihua said he would take her to Lin'an but she refused to go, saying that she had an old illness and she was over 80 years old. There was no need to waste money."

“Is the old lady so stubborn?”

"She is very stubborn. Even my father can't persuade her. Once she makes up her mind, even eight oxen can't stop her."

Wang Youzhi said, "Old people are like this. Didn't Fangfang's grandpa catch a cold some time ago? He has been coughing for more than a week and he refused to go to the hospital even though he was asked to."

Yu Yafang said: "My mother had no choice but to call my workplace and asked me to persuade my grandfather. It was hard to coax him to the hospital, just like coaxing a child.

After going to the hospital for a checkup, it turned out that the cough had turned into pneumonia. I stayed in the hospital for a while and was discharged and returned home a few days ago. "

Yang Yukun said, "Old children, old children. The elderly are just like children. They need to be coaxed slowly. Old He, you should go back and coax the old lady. You should go to the hospital for a thorough check-up." He Changfu said, "Okay, I'll coax her when I get back."

Wang Youzhi said, "Uncle Kun, Auntie, Xiaojun asked me to tell you that he can't make it back for Xiaoyumi's wedding this time. He will come back to see you next year when he is on vacation."

"I know, this guy called me."

Wang Youzhi is serving in the Snow Region, and Peng Jun is also in the Snow Region Military Region.

When Wang Youzhi first joined the army, Peng Jun was the squad leader of Wang Youzhi's recruit company.

After leaving the company, Wang Youzhi was assigned to Peng Jun's class, and Peng Jun became the squad leader of Wang Youzhi's company.

As for whether the two are still in the same unit, Yang Yukun is not very clear.

"In the past two years, Xiaojun has given up his vacation opportunities to other comrades. He himself has not had a vacation in eight years."

When he first joined the army, Wang Youzhi took the initiative to ask to go to the snowy plateau.

I didn’t expect to meet my uncle Jianguo’s second brother Peng Jun in the snowy land.

He and Peng Jun are still serving in the same unit, the Snow Wolf Special Forces Brigade of the Snow Region Military Region.

When he came back from vacation this time, Peng Jun drove him to the train station and asked him to say hello to Uncle Kun and Aunt and say sorry.

"Old Wang is here." Yang Yukun noticed someone entering the yard and glanced through the window. It was Wang Aiguo.

Ding Baosong said, "Old Wang."

"Old Ding, Old He." Wang Aiguo saw Ding Baosong and He Changfu arrived in the group and hurried over from the company.

"dad."

Seeing their father coming, Wang Youzhi and Yu Yafang greeted him.

"Youzhi, Fangfang, why are you back?"

Wang Aiguo was a little confused to see that his son and daughter-in-law were there.

I didn’t hear my son and daughter-in-law say they would come back to celebrate the New Year this year, so why did they come back suddenly?

"We came back to celebrate the New Year. We came back from the airport with Uncle Ding and Uncle He."

"Why didn't you call me before you came back? I thought you weren't coming back this year."

My son and daughter-in-law are both serving in the army and have not been back for several years.

Wang Aiguo thought that his son and daughter-in-law would not come back this year, but he did not expect the surprise to come so suddenly.

"I just want to give you a surprise." Wang Youzhi said with a smile.

Wang Youzhi and Yu Yafang did not tell their parents that they were going to come back for the New Year holiday.

I haven't been back for several years, and I plan to give my parents a surprise.

"What a surprise! Grandpa and grandma were still talking about you two days ago. I don't know how happy they would be if they knew you were back."

"We miss grandpa and grandma so much, too. Dad, where's Wenwen?"

"Your mother has it with her."

"Uncle Ding, Uncle He, Uncle Kun, Auntie, let's go back and see Wenwen first."

"Go quickly, come over for dinner later, and tell your mom and grandparents to come over too."

"it is good."

After not having been back for several years, what Wang Youzhi and Yu Yafang missed most was their son.

He and Yu Yafang were both in the army, but they served in different units.

He was in the Snowland Military Region, while Yu Yafang was in the Air Force Aviation Corps as a pilot and was unable to bring her son with her.

The child is left at home with his grandparents. I don’t know if the child still recognizes them after not seeing them for so many years.

After leaving Uncle Kun's house, Wang Youzhi and Yu Yafang went straight to their mother's house to see their son.

After Wang Youzhi and Yu Yafang left, Yang Yukun drank tea and chatted with Wang Aiguo, Ding Baosong and He Changfu.

Peng Jianguo, Ran Xiaoyi, Zhu Jing, Ming Xiaofen, Yao Yulan and others came one after another, and Peng Tao and Hehua also rushed to Sijiucheng from Fangshan.

In the evening, several tables were arranged at the Wangfujing branch of Zhiweilou Restaurant to entertain Ding Baosong and other relatives and friends who had come from other places.

The next day, the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, we started our banquet at the Wangfujing branch of Zhiweilou Restaurant.

Han Chunming's banquet was arranged at the front branch of Jubanxian Restaurant.

At first we were planning to arrange it together, but then we thought about it and decided to do it separately.

The main reason is that Yang Yukun and Han Chunming have a lot of relatives and friends. Not counting the neighbors in the alley, the guests of the two families combined would exceed a thousand tables.

Yang Yukun and Han Chunming calculated that the total number of guests from both families would be around 1,200 tables, so they decided to hold the banquet separately.

As for the neighbors in the alley, they can eat at whichever restaurant they like.

It's OK for both families to eat, since the money for two portions is indispensable anyway. (End of this chapter)
