Chapter 2641 Extra ()

Five years later, Xinyuan
In the corner of the garden, two elderly people were concentrating on playing chess, but they were interrupted by Butler Li who looked apologetic.

"Please move to the living room, please. There is a celebration party to be arranged here. The organizer is already waiting at the back door and it will start soon."

Dad Xue adjusted his reading glasses and asked curiously: "Party? What are you celebrating? What festival is it? What day of the lunar calendar is it now?"

Butler Li smiled and answered the question: "This is what my wife and husband told me. I don't understand it."

Xue Zhilan thought for a while and asked: "Today? It's not a new year or a festival - what are you celebrating?"

"I don't know." Butler Li shook his head and replied politely: "My wife told me that it must be completed before evening. This is a big party, and a total of more than a dozen workers came to arrange the banquet and decoration."

"Yo!" Father Xue suddenly became energetic and asked, "Is it a big party? Are you going to have a lively gathering tonight?"

Butler Li answered yes and explained: "My wife said that everyone in the family will attend tonight. Not only that, Dean Xue and his two families will also come. By the way, Mrs. Xue Cong and her family will also come."

“Ah?”

"No!" Dad Xue pointed to the mobile phone beside him and explained: "I remember everyone's birthday in the family! I asked Yangyang to get me a notepad. No matter whose birthday it is in the family, they will remind me one day in advance."

Xue Zhilan also looked at a loss: "The Mid-Autumn Festival is still far away. Didn't the Qiao Qiao Festival just pass? There is no festival today."

Xue's father smiled and guessed: "It's probably because Lingling wants everyone to get together when they have time. She probably also wants to celebrate the addition of a baby to the A Chong family and wants everyone to meet him officially."

"Oh, oh." Xue Zhilan smiled and said: "It should be right. The little one is more than two months old, and many people haven't seen her yet."

Xue's father explained: "Aqing's parents are in great pain. They hang around her every day, vying to name the little one."

Seeing that they were chatting unconsciously, Butler Li helped carry the chessboard to the living room.

"Be careful where you step and remember to bring your crutches."

The two old men had no choice but to pick up their crutches and walk slowly behind.

"Zhilan, is Xiaohan about to give birth?" Xue's father asked with concern: "Her husband is still studying for a Ph.D.?"

"Yes." Xue Zhilan smiled from ear to ear: "The young man is very motivated and is currently studying for a doctorate. He and Xiaohan still live in the nursing home and do not live in the city. Xiaohan's due date is at the end of the year, the end of October in the lunar calendar .”

Xue's father was confused: "Um - isn't their wedding house in the city? The one Lingling gave them?"

"They are all in the urban area." Xue Zhilan explained: "They have two apartments in total. One is a wedding gift given to them by Lingling, and the other is a wedding room given to them by A Heng. Both are quite comfortably decorated. You can live in it by just twisting some clothes. However, the young couple never lived there much and have been living in a nursing home. They said that they can stay close to A Heng and others, and their work and classes are also closer."

"That's right." Dad Xue chuckled: "Food and accommodation are included, and you only have to walk downstairs to work. How convenient!"

"Yes." Xue Zhilan said: "It is convenient for Xiaohan to go to work, and her husband has classes nearby. A while ago, Xiaoyi hired a chef to open a small stove for his family. They have housing and food, and it is convenient and close to work and classes. , How could I be willing to move to the city? That girl Xiaohan has never been diligent, and she is too happy to have someone to help cook and wash the dishes, so she is not willing to leave."

Father Xue couldn't help but ask: "It's been several months and you're still working?"

"Yes." Xue Zhilan said: "She said she would start taking leave half a month after the due date. A Heng said she looked quite relaxed, so he didn't stop her."

Dad Xue joked: "Every nursing home has great doctors, so you don't have to worry. Even if you give birth early, there are professional doctors from the obstetrics and gynecology department on call. Even if you live in the hospital, you may not get such treatment." On."

"Haha!" It’s hard work. She can take the initiative to go to work and move around, which is much better than lying lazily at home and scrolling through her mobile phone.”

Xue's father praised: "Xiaohan has made a lot of progress in the past few years, and his temper has become more and more calm. Now his career and marriage are both successful, and he will be a mother soon. You, you are finally relieved." "It is a blessing after all the hardships." "Xue Zhilan couldn't help but sigh: "Without everyone raising the salary, there would be no Xiaohan today. This child's fate in the first half of his life was a bit twisty. Fortunately, the future will be smooth, which is gratifying!"

Dad Xue smiled and said: "Life is rough at first and then smooth, which is already a great blessing!"

The two sat down again and planned to continue playing chess.

At this time, Cheng Tianyuan came from the kitchen with two bowls of hot rice cereal in his hand.

"Dad, Uncle Zhilan, drink something to warm your stomach."

Xue Zhilan laughed and said: "The weather has just turned cooler, and it is still very hot during the day. Rice porridge is needed to warm up!"

Cheng Tianyuan shook his head and explained: "This is not ordinary rice cereal. It was just made by the chef sent by A Qing. He said it is very suitable for the elderly to drink."

"Oh." Father Xue took it and was about to drink-

"Dad! It's hot!" Cheng Tianyuan reminded: "You have to blow it!"

Dad Xue answered quickly, blew on it, and then carefully took a sip, "Yo! It tastes very fragrant! It's fragrant and smooth!"

Xue Zhilan also became interested and took it happily.

"Then let me try it too."

Cheng Tianyuan said: "You guys drink, I will bring a bowl into the house for mom. By the way, there are a few chefs at the back of the garden preparing food at noon, and there may be fumes. Uncle Zhilan, remember to close the window and leave it empty when you take a nap. withered."

"Okay, okay." Xue Zhilan asked curiously: "Is it for the banquet tonight? Is it?"

Cheng Tianyuan smiled and nodded: "Yes. There are many guests tonight, and all the chefs around A Qing have been sent over. The dinner will start at around six o'clock, and the snack time will be advanced by half an hour."

Xue's father looked curious and asked: "What kind of dinner? Is it going to make up for the little one's full moon party?"

"No." Cheng Tianyuan smiled mysteriously and said, "You'll find out tonight!"

Father Xue laughed and looked at his cousin.

"Look! You're playing riddles for us!"

Xue Zhilan intuitively felt that tonight was a very grand show, "It should be a big surprise... let's wait!"

Cheng Tianyuan didn't stay any longer and left in a hurry.

It wasn't until after his nap that Xue Zhilan squinted at the conspicuous "seventy" hanging high in the garden under the window, and then vaguely guessed it.

"Seventy? No one has a birthday? Could it be that - oh! I forgot about it too!"

Then, he hurriedly took out his mobile phone and called his eldest son.

"A Heng! Quickly prepare a gift for me!"
