Chapter 448 Returning Home: First Visit to the Fang Family
The old man probably knew that his behavior over this period of time had been met with disapproval.
He was well aware that his wife wasn't giving him a friendly look.
Hearing his wife not giving him any face in front of their son and daughter-in-law, his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
"I said I'd find out when I had time, not that I had to find out right away."
"You shouldn't even bother asking. They have their reasons for not coming back. That's the Public Security Bureau and the Party School. Do you think this is child's play? There's no room for carelessness there."
Seeing this, the old man became somewhat embarrassed and angry. He stopped eating, slammed his chopsticks on the table, and got up to sit on the sofa to drink tea.
I'm so angry I'm full, what's the point of eating?
Now at home, he doesn't even have the authority to say a word.
He then asked his son to ask what was wrong.
I didn't ask them to do anything.
They knew they were worried that he had taken Guangming's request to heart.
But right now, he hasn't done anything yet.
If they actually did it, that would be terrible.
But then again, it was ultimately his own opinion of his nephew and niece.
Although my niece did some unacceptable things when she was in the county town.
But that's all in the past now, and there was no loss.
These are all his own people, especially his eldest nephew who came to him for the first time to ask for his help.
This really put him in a dilemma.
Besides, Qingqing is a good girl and shouldn't hold a grudge against Guangmei's immature niece.
But what if Qingqing really takes it to heart?
In recent years, he has been eating well, sleeping soundly, and in excellent health.
He knew it was all thanks to Qingqing.
but...
At this moment, it felt as if two little people were fighting inside the old man's mind. One thought was: "It's nothing, it's just a trip to Beijing. I've been there before, it's no big deal."
Then it goes like this: "The two sides had such a bad time before, so they still have to respect Qingqing's own thoughts. They can't morally blackmail her. Whether she goes or not is her own decision, and they won't interfere."
The old lady glanced at the old man, who hadn't eaten, and then looked away.
Take it or leave it. This old guy is so old, why is he still throwing a tantrum?
If you don't eat, you'll go hungry.
The Fang family of three pretended not to see the smiles on the elderly couple's faces throughout the entire incident, as the couple had known the whole story for a long time.
But after all, they are the younger generation. There are some things that can only be understood by the elders themselves. They have already given their advice, and the rest can only be left to them to decide.
However, the couple were of one mind and naturally sided with the old lady.
In this life, you have to take care of yourself first, otherwise you won't be able to help others, and you'll even get yourself into trouble.
But those deeply involved in the situation simply cannot see such a simple truth.
After the couple finished their meal, they said goodbye and then left with their child.
They both went to work, and their child was taken to the nearest primary school on his way to work.
In this way, it saves the two elderly people from having to take the child to school every day.
After her son and daughter-in-law left, the old lady washed the dishes and chopsticks on the table, cleaned the kitchen and dining area, and then slowly walked into the living room.
The old lady was exhausted from getting up early to make breakfast and cleaning everything.
She had just sat down on the sofa, ready to catch her breath.
Then they heard a knock on the door.
She was taken aback, wondering who would come to visit at this hour.
After thinking for a moment, he slowly walked towards the door.
The old man next to him seemed not to hear the knocking, and just sat there motionless, wearing his reading glasses and looking at his newspaper.
Standing outside the door at this moment were Feng Qingqing and her two children, who had come to visit.
After getting up early in the morning, she took her two children and had a hearty breakfast. After tidying up a bit, she carried some local specialties she had bought in the provincial capital and headed to the place where the Fang family lived.
She spent a considerable amount of time in both the provincial capital and Beijing this time.
In fact, her online space contains many local specialties, both from Beijing and the provincial capital.
But considering the Fang family's actions in Beijing, they still took out some local specialties from the provincial capital while tidying up yesterday.
This move is also to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Although, given the Fang family's circumstances, it wouldn't be too difficult to find out her whereabouts recently if they were determined to do so.
But if the Fang family really does act that way, then naturally the story will be different.
When they arrived at the Fang family's door, they knocked gently, and soon, they heard a familiar sound of footsteps.
At the same time, the old lady's voice was heard:
"Coming, coming, who is it?"
Soon, the door opened from the inside, revealing the old lady whom we hadn't seen for some time.
The old lady probably didn't expect to see the mother and her two children at this time. The moment the door opened, the old lady was clearly a little stunned.
After a pause, a look of great surprise appeared on his previously expressionless face.
This was accompanied by a rising tone:
"Oh, it's you, girl! Come in, come in quickly."
"Oh, my two little darlings, you've missed Grandma so much all this time! Have you missed Grandma?"
The old lady had been helping Feng Qingqing since the two children were little, and it could be said that she had watched the two little ones grow up.
She adored both children.
As the conversation between the two parties continued, the old man sitting in the living room reading the newspaper soon realized who had come over.
His face immediately lit up with joy.
He quickly took off his reading glasses, placed the newspaper on a chair, stood up, and looked warmly at Feng Qingqing and her two children, greeting them as he did so.
"Qingqing is here, come and sit down, come and sit down."
Feng Qingqing placed the things she was carrying on the table in the dining room near the entrance.
While responding to the two elderly people, he walked towards the living room:
"Godmother and Godfather, how have you been lately?"
I returned to the county town yesterday, tidied up my home, and came to visit you both first thing this morning.
The old lady was tidying up a lot of snacks that the children liked from the room, occasionally chatting with them:
"You should rest well at home. Come over when you're rested. We two old folks will stay home and won't run away."
After saying that, she gave Feng Qingqing a reproachful look.
The old man, standing nearby, also chimed in:
"However, this trip to the provincial capital will take much longer than before, and we were worried about it at home."
The old man wasn't wrong about that.
After all, Feng Qingqing had returned within a week on previous occasions.
The two families are close, so they naturally care about each other.
But when the old lady heard her husband say this, she calmly replied:
"Young people have their own plans for doing things, why do you, an old man, need to worry about them?"
