The old man's expression was very calm, Li Ping couldn't see his mood, he just silently helped him to go out.

Zhao Jiaming was sitting in the yard, turned around and saw the old man coming out, stood up, opened his mouth, and shouted, "Dad."

The old man waved his hand, made a gesture of pressing down, and said tiredly: "Sit, sit down, when did you come back?"

"Just now." Zhao Jiaming felt uneasy, "I haven't been back for many years, come back to see you."

The old man was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "Today Yunyun's son celebrates his birthday, you can come and see me if you come to see me, you two don't quarrel, there are so many people, it will be a bad scene."

Zhao Jiaming sighed, "Don't worry, he is my son after all, how could I harm him?"

The old man shook his head, "What's the use of talking about it now?"

After he finished speaking, both father and son fell silent.

Zhao Zhuoxin showed a smile, "Grandpa, where is Yunyun?"

The old man: "I'm busy. It's not suitable to talk about things today. Let's talk about it after he finishes his child's birthday party."

When the old man said that, others couldn't object. Zhao Jiaming nodded, and the old man asked, "Are you guys staying for the birthday party or going out for something?"

Zhao Jiaming: "It's all here, we went out again, isn't this a joke."

The old man looked up at him, "You haven't come back for many years, who in the village said that our family is not a joke?"

Zhao Jiaming choked, and just about to retort, the old man waved his hand, "It's done, I won't say more. You don't say anything else about birthdays, you have to give your children some birthday gifts, right? This big family Here, everyone occupies a table, and nothing is unreasonable."

Zhou Baimei said awkwardly: "It's all ready, I have prepared a red envelope for the child."

The old man didn't talk about them anymore, instead he raised his voice and called Luo Haoran not far away, "Hao Ran."

Luo Haoran walked over quickly and asked, "Grandpa, what's the matter?"

"There are too many guests, please see if you can go to the village and borrow another table."

Luo Haoran nodded, "No problem, I'll go and ask."

After speaking, he strode out. The old man and Zhao Jiaming were sitting together, and there was nothing to talk about.

Li Ping was silently by the side, the people in the courtyard saw a table of strangers, they felt a little strange, and then they pricked up their ears and knew after a while that they were Zhao Danshi's parents.

Everyone had been working in the yard for so long, and everyone still knew what was going on with Zhao Danshi and his parents.

Zhao Shanshi was happily working in the kitchen, Zhao Mingtai went in and out several times with vegetables, he knew exactly what was going on in the yard, seeing his master like this, he hesitated to speak, and didn't know whether to say it or not.

Zhao Danshi saw his eyes rolling back and forth, standing in front of the stove and still absent-minded, the dishes were almost burnt, so he reached out and took the spatula in his hand from behind, "What are you thinking about?"

Zhao Mingtai was taken aback, "Master!"

Zhao Danshi said helplessly: "If you have something to say, why don't you look out of your mind?"

Zhao Mingtai hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth, "Master, well, a relative from your family came to the yard."

"Relatives?" Zhao Shanshi was confused, "My relatives or my senior brother's relatives? There are no relatives in my family."

Zhao Mingtai was vague, "They are relatives of your family, you will know when you go out and have a look."

Zhao Danshi had no choice but to hand the spatula back to him, and took the apron, "All right, I'll go out and have a look. Erhua, you are busy, I'll go out to greet the guests first."

Liu Erhua responded.

After Zhao Shanshi went out, he saw Zhao Jiaming and the others at a glance, and was immediately stunned.

With sharp eyes, Zhao Zhuoxin raised his hand to greet him, "Yunyun!"

Zhao Danshi made up his mind before walking forward, "Parents, brother—"

His voice was dry and hoarse, as if he hadn't drank water for a long time, "Is this sister-in-law?"

The woman stood up half bent, and nodded embarrassedly, "Hey."

Zhao Zhuoxin quickly took over his words and introduced, "Yes, this is your sister-in-law, nephew and niece, Jin Yu, Yuxue, Chengmin, call me."

Under the watchful eyes of their father, the children sitting next to Zhao Zhuoxin's wife called timidly, "Uncle."

"Good boy." Zhao Danshi was a little embarrassed, glanced at his parents, and winked at Li Ping, Li Ping understood, and went into the house to make a red envelope.

Zhao Shanshi asked, "Mom and Dad, why are you here?"

Zhao Jiaming was annoyed, "Come and see your grandpa, what's the matter?"

Zhao Danshi smiled shortly, "It's nothing. Dad, I'll get someone to pour tea for you. I still have some work to do. I'll go and do it first. You sit and chat for a while."

The old man answered, "Go and do your work, just let them sit with me for a while."

Zhao Danshi nodded, and when he turned around, the smile on his face faded.He walked in, but instead of entering the kitchen, he turned and entered the room where they had lived before.

After they moved to the villa on the mountain, this room became empty. The two of them had a lot of things, and they didn't move all of them to the mountain. Some things were kept here.

When Zhao Shanshi went in, Li Ping was taking out the red envelope and counting the money in it.

Zhao Danshi walked over to lie on his back, put his arms around his waist, "Senior brother."

"En." Li Ping turned to look at him with gentle eyes, "Tired? Do you want to take a rest?"

Zhao Shanshi let out a sigh of relief, "I'm tired."

Li Ping turned around and hugged him with one hand, and pressed his face into the crook of his neck, with a gentle voice, "It's okay, I'll be fine after this meal."

"It can't be done." Zhao Shanshi said in a muffled voice, "My dad and the others didn't make it early. They must have a purpose when they came here, and they have to deal with it."

Li Ping couldn't say anything, so he just hugged him quietly.

After hugging for a long time, Zhao Shanshi raised his head by himself, and said, "Brother, later they will say that these properties belong to you, you pay the money, and hire the people, okay?"

"What's the point?" Li Ping chuckled, "If you don't want to talk, I'll talk to them later."

Zhao Danshi responded, and after a long pause, he finally said: "My dad used to be a teacher, and later became a leader, and my mom took a temporary position at their school, saying she was a librarian, but in fact, I only need to go there for two hours in the afternoon. That’s enough. Our family has been very strict since we were young, my father is strict, and my mother will carry out his requirements.”

"...I used to fail my grades. My dad didn't say a word to me for two months during the summer vacation, and my mom ignored me. My brother is fine, but my dad often compares us. I'm more or less a competitor." Zhao Shanshi said, "My dad is actually a bit utilitarian, it's not good for him, so he doesn't bother to talk to him..."

Li Ping rubbed his head silently, Zhao Shanshi sniffed, "I used to always tell myself that no matter how bad my parents were, they raised me up, and there is always a little bit of affection between father and son. Now look back Come to think of it, in fact, the relationship between us is just like that. You should be filial to me, and forget everything else.”

"Brother, don't agree to anything later. We will deal with the matter between us." Zhao Shanshi thought for a while, and then said: "Brother, remember to say hello to your uncle and aunt."

Speaking of this, Zhao Danzhi laughed at himself, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether you say hello or not, they have probably already found out."

Li Ping kissed his ear, "Good boy, don't worry, I'll take care of my family's affairs."

The couple stayed in the house for a while, and Zhao Shanshi went out with three big red envelopes. The red envelopes were bought during the Chinese New Year. Each red envelope contained 2000 yuan.

Going out again, Zhao Danshi had already collected his mood, and distributed red envelopes to the three children, "Come on, uncle will give you lucky money, I wish you good health and peace."

The three children were a little afraid to accept it, and looked at their father with eyes, Zhao Danshi forced it into their arms.

Soon, lunch was ready, Xiaoshou Xing followed Lan Yun and jumped over, and the candles that he had waited to blow out at night were lit for him at noon.

Under the gaze of a crowd of people, Doudou felt a little embarrassed, closed his chubby paws, and blew out candles with Zhao Shanshi and Li Ping.

Everyone sang happy birthday to him, Zhao Zhuoxin's three children and the big cake in front of him looked a little envious.

The courtyard is full of acquaintances, no need to greet, everyone is ready to eat, and the courtyard is full of excitement.
