"Business trip? Why so suddenly?"

"Originally, Sister Tang was supposed to be in charge, but now she is... well... a little inconvenient, and then the manager let me go."

"How long? When are you leaving? Where are you going?"

"About a month, we will leave next Monday to Heilongjiang."

"I'm going to Heilongjiang this season... Then I need to prepare a few cotton coats quickly. It's too late to buy online now. Tomorrow is Saturday, so let's go directly to the mall. I also need to prepare some cold-proof products... Let me call and ask. my mother."

"...Eh...wait a minute..."

"what?"

"...It's lonely to marry a wife who knows too much about the general situation."

"...It's only a month's business trip."

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"It's almost done. You are working. Unless you want to quit, you can't avoid business trips."

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

"It's only a month. Didn't it last for a semester in college before. When you feel lonely, you can call, wechat, and video."

"But I want to fuck with you."

"...Give me a month! But I don't mind the video either."

"...Ayuan, when did you become so harsh."

"I was forced by you."

"I'm more wronged than Dou E...but I like it, hehehe~"

"I guess this is the first time."

"Ok?"

"You will have more opportunities to travel in the future."

"...Yeah, sister Tang is about to take maternity leave, and even if she comes back, she probably won't be sent out."

"I haven't been pregnant for so many years, so it's normal to take it seriously. Your manager probably wants you to take over from Sister Tang."

"Hey, I know."

"Not bad, congratulations on your promotion."

"...I'd be happier if I didn't have to travel..."

"Don't pretend to be good when you get cheap, I may depend on you to raise me in the future."

"Although I'm extremely happy, you're almost there. Didn't you say that your director is going to be promoted?"

"What does his promotion have to do with me?"

"The promotion of a leader has a lot to do with the lower levels, not to mention that you are always valued by the director."

"Let's talk about it, it's not clear yet. All right, let's take a shower quickly, and I'll call my mother."

"it is good."

chap. 105

"Ayuan... There are some problems with the project here, I guess it will really be delayed until the annual vacation..."

"...Well, let's go separately this time. You have to pay attention to your body and don't catch a cold."

"It's okay, it's okay, I basically stay indoors here, the heating is sufficient, it feels warmer than staying in Shanghai."

"very nice."

"Woo... no, I want to see you! I want to kiss you! I want to hug you!"

"Hey, work hard, we'll talk about it when we come back in the New Year."

"woo woo woo woo……"

"I'll do whatever you want when you come back."

"Really?"

"boiled."

"A Yuan!"

"Haha, okay, roaming is not cheap, hang up first."

"This is WeChat voice chat! I have a lot of traffic!"

"Okay, let's watch a video with my parents."

"…………"

chap. 106

"Hey, A Yuan, why haven't you slept yet?"

"Wait for you."

"... Where are the parents?"

"I went to bed early, what time do you think it is?"

"It's not my fault that the plane is late..."

"Close the door quickly, it's freezing to death."

"Ah... sorry."

"The hot water is ready, let's take a bath first."

"OK~Ayuan~"

"What? Well..."

"Huh... It's been a long time since I hugged you... Miss me?"

"It's okay to chat twice a day."

"Really? Then why are you so excited?"

"...The physiological reaction is temporarily out of the control of the brain."

"... Mom and Dad are asleep, right?"

"Ah."

"Then... shall we wash together?"

"...use the bathroom in the room."

"it is good."

chap. 107

"Xiao Hua, are you back?"

"Mom, good morning~ Yes, I arrived last night. I was supposed to arrive in the afternoon, but the plane was late. When I came back, I saw that you and Dad were already asleep, so I didn't bother you."

"It's okay, it's okay, as long as you can come back safely. You have lost weight after two months of business trip, and I will make you a delicious meal later!"

"Great! Thanks Mom!"

"By the way, have you notified your aunt?"

"Not yet, I plan to call later, it's too early now."

"It doesn't matter if it's earlier, if you inform me earlier, you can rest assured. What do you want to eat? I'll go buy it."

"It's fine~ I'll accompany you?"

"Come on, just after running around, you can take a rest for a day, and I won't let you rest if you want to. There are many things to do during the Chinese New Year!"

"Um... well."

"Mom, let me accompany you."

"...Forget it, you two should get together first, just be careful not to wake up the old man."

"...Then go slowly, don't buy too much."

"Alright, alright."

chap. 108

"Hello, aunt~"

"...Xiao Hua? Are you back?"

"Yes, I arrived last night."

"Just come back safely....By the way, what are you going to do this year? You haven't visited your relatives in three years, right?"

"...Forget it this year."

"Okay, but at least, I have to come to my aunt's house too. Your cousin's wife gave birth to a daughter. You were on a business trip during the full moon. Come and have a look when you come back now, and take Lu Zhiyuan with you."

"……it is good."

chap. 109

"To your aunt's house? Okay."

"Well... I still need to bring some gifts... What should someone give to a child?"

"Ask Mom."

"Mom~"

"Clothes, jewelry, red envelopes."

"...so simple and rude."

"What else? Do you still want to send a house or a car?"

"This statement makes sense...then let's give you jewelry. What to buy?"

"Golden anklet, keep your value."

"Understood....Mom, do you have anything to do this afternoon?"

"...All right, all right, I'll go with you."

"Hey hey, mom is so nice~"

"Stinky boy."

chap. 110

"By the way, is that a girl or a kid?"

"daughter."

"Well, then this kind of one, the chain body is smaller and more interesting."

"Okay, okay, then I want this one with the word blessing."

"Oh, that's alright."

"Waiter, please take a look at this chain."

"Okay~"

……

"Mom, do you mind?"

"...It would be a lie to say no regrets, but there is no other way, you have decided to be with Xiaohua. Xiaohua is also a good boy, more filial than you. It is...it is your future, what should you do... ..."

"The nursing home, or someone to take care of it, there is always a way."

"When you are in your seventies and eighties, you can't walk, you can't recognize people, and you don't have a clear mind. How can you ask someone to take care of you? Who will take care of you?"

"At that time, relying on the public, our social security is not paid for nothing."

"..."

"Mom, who can say for sure what will happen in the future? If you plan to be ten years old, maybe you will be summoned by heaven before you are seventy."

"Bah, bah, bah, what nonsense are you talking about when it's almost Chinese New Year!"

"That's the real problem."

"Hey, if you have some brothers and sisters, you can ask them to help take care of them, but they are the only children..."

"Then are you planning to have a second child? The policy has just been relaxed, and there is no fine for having a second child."

"Fuck you! Your mother and I can still give birth now!"

"not sure."

"...Hey, forget it, since you don't worry about it, why should we worry about it for you?"

"Well, now you just need to enjoy yourself."

"……Too."

chap. 111

"Auntie, Uncle, Happy New Year!"

"Auntie, Uncle, Happy New Year."

"Haha, Happy New Year, Happy New Year! Come in, come in, Xiao An, pour tea!"

"Do not bother……"

"Oh brother, just sit down obediently, this is the usual practice. By the way, Ah Xin, go and take Xinxin out and show them."

"Okay....Come on, Xinxin, these are your two cousins ​​~ come and say hello."

"Ah, it's so cute! Come on, this is a gift from your cousins, keep it well."

"Ah... what a shame."

"It's all rites, it's all rites. The full moon didn't arrive, so I'll make it up this time."

"Then thank you brother~ By the way, brother, do you want to hug her?"

"Hey?"

"Come on, try, try."

"Hey, wait a minute—this, this?"

"exactly."

"Haha, Xinxin looks very comfortable too. Brother Zhiyuan, do you want to try it too?"

"Hey, I don't need it."

"What are you afraid of, come and try!"

"Hey……"

"Haha, isn't this a good hug! Both of them have the potential to be dads."

"Okay, the child should be tired, Ah Xin, take her back to sleep."

"it is good."

"Xiaohua, Xiaoyuan, why don't you stay for dinner today?"

"...Okay~"

chap. 112

"Xiaoyuan, have you and Xiaohua thought about the future? Not in ten or eight years, but when you are old."

"...Actually, my mother also talked to me about this issue yesterday, and I told her the same thing. If I can live to that time, it's up to the public."

"...Xiao Hua also meant this?"

"Hehe, yes. But I promised I would outlive him, so I'll probably take care of him."

"...were you able to take care of me at that time?"

"So I keep exercising."

"Pfft...hehehe...well...I lost to you guys....I remember, you are also the only child, right?"

"Ah."

"I discussed it with Xiaoan and his wife, Xinxin...how about adopting it to you?"

"...Thank you for worrying about us... But, there is no need."

"But……"

"Xinxin is the eldest daughter, and there is no second one yet, so how can she just adopt like this. Besides, there are only a few people in a family now, if anyone is missing, I will be lonely, why bother."

"But you..."

"It's better for the two families to move around more in the future. When the child grows up, if she is willing to take care of us, we can talk about it."

"……All right."

chap. 113

"Brother, how long will you be on vacation this time?"

"Same as usual, Chuqi's plane."

"Aren't you going to come back?"

"...I thought about it before, but now I don't think much about it, let's go with the fate."

"Okay. Actually, this time, my mother discussed with me and Ah Xin, and wants to adopt Xinxin to you. How about it?"

"...The little kid from the past became a father without knowing it. Time really flies."

"I'm still flying like a boat, are you willing or not? Give me a letter."

"You and Ah Xin are willing?"

"...It's good for you guys. Oh, what are you doing! Don't mess with my hair!"

"Who do you think you want to show your hair so neatly done at home?"

"I'm paying attention to my image! Hey, hey, no, don't change the subject!"

"All right, all right, my answer is - thank you for your kindness, but no need."

"Then what will you do in the future?"

"Cold."

"I'm serious! Although it's a bit pedantic to say that raising children to guard against old age is true, there is a reason for it. When people get old and don't have a junior to take care of them, accidents are easy to happen!"

"Those who have seven or eight children in their old age may not be peaceful. These things are uncertain. Besides, the parents of the child are still alive, and there are grandparents who love her, so why push her to collateral relatives. I Look, you don't want to, do you?"

"...There must be some reluctance..."

"If you can have a healthy and happy family, don't artificially destroy it. Let's just do it. When the child grows up, if the child is willing and we have that need, let her take care of us."

"...Brother, to be honest, you... think this is the way it is now, okay?"

"Fine, we've always had each other, and that's enough."

The author has something to say:

From here, the timeline will gradually elongate. There are continuous periods between each period, and there are also periods of several years or even more than ten years. Let me inform you in advance, so as not to be confused... Although it is very likely that the previous ones are also confused. Well...and, the top has been sweet for so long, and the bottom has started to be a little bit cruel, a little bit of bloody abuse, um
