"Money, you don't bring this thing with you when you die."

"When I was young, I worked so hard. What do I want to do when I get old? Let me say that it is good health, not burdening the children, picking up the grandson to and from school every day, teasing the children for a walk with the dog, and just having fun by yourself."

"From time to time, get together with a few old friends, drink tea, and eat. These days are really happy." The speaker laughed twice, his face flushed: "I quit drinking for a few years. It’s been a year, and today you broke the precept when you were with me, otherwise I wouldn’t drink it.”

Another 60-year-old man said: "You can't drink anymore. You used to be able to drink a lot, but today you drink better?"

The man waved his hand: "Hey, as you get older, your capacity for alcohol will naturally decrease. When I quit drinking, it was my grandson who said it. You all know my temper. Who dares to tell me to quit drinking? "He chuckled twice: "When my little grandson opens his mouth, I can't help it. Whenever he talks like a baby, I can't harden my heart. I haven't touched him in a few years, and my drinking capacity has indeed dropped a lot now."

As soon as the wine is drunk, the conversation becomes more frequent. It is really refreshing to chat with old friends who have not seen each other for many years.

Chatting and chatting, it is inevitable to show off their treasures, and their treasures are nothing more than grandchildren.

The old Wang's family has an eight-year-old grandson. The eldest son didn't get married until he was in his 30s. This child came late and is the lifeblood of the family.

Now that the child is in elementary school, Lao Wang picks him up and drops him off every day, and he is not happy if others want to take this job.

Lao Li's family has a grandson and a granddaughter, both of whom are not very old. One is in elementary school and the other is still in kindergarten.

Hearing Lao Wang talking about his grandson, he sighed and said: "My daughter is married far away, and I can only see my little grandson during the holidays, but my son lives close by. Unfortunately, he is too busy, so he can only bring the child to see us once in a week or two. .”

"My little granddaughter is really succulent. She is very smart and can learn everything quickly. My little grandson is not good at grades. Although she is cute and smart, she just doesn't like studying. Whenever she is asked to do homework, she will cry and cry. There's nothing you can do about him." Although Lao Li said that his grandson was naughty, his face was full of smiles, and he didn't mean to blame him at all.

Zhuang Qing took a sip of wine and listened silently.

He didn't have much impression of children, and he didn't feel much about what Lao Li and Lao Wang said.

But gradually, after listening to them talk a lot, there was some change in my heart.

At this time, Wang Guodong, who was drinking a lot, patted Zhuang Qing on the shoulder: "Old Zhuang, if you ask me, don't stay abroad all the time. No matter how good a foreigner's place is, can we have our hometown? And you Two sons, the eldest is not too young, it's time to get married."

"Now young people are getting married late." Li Maorong said: "It's normal to be over 30."

Wang Guodong asked Zhuang Qing: "How old is your eldest?"

Zhuang Qing's face was sullen, he always had this expression outside, and because of drinking, his face was flushed, it looked like he was arguing with someone and his face was flushed.

"32." Zhuang Qing said.

Li Maorong paused for a moment, then put down his wine glass: "32 is not too young, he can get married and have a child. My eldest got married at 28, and he will have a child in the second year."

Wang Guodong said: "I'm still too busy with my career. The eldest son of the old banker has a big company. I heard that he entered the top ten of the Forbes rich list in China the year before last. How much is his net worth?" Wang Guodong thought about it carefully: "Oh yes, It seems to be 160 billion U.S. dollars, and the younger generation is the son of Lao Zhuang who is promising." I was really surprised when I saw it at the time, so I remember it clearly.

What he knew was the information from three years ago. Now the game industry has gone up to a higher level than it was three years ago. Zhuang Yao's worth has already doubled.

"It's like Lao Zhuang." Li Maorong said: "Lao Zhuang also worked so hard when he was young, working hard and dying."

The two talked and began to persuade: "Lao Zhuang, a man's career is important, but his family is also important, otherwise it will be too late."

"That's right, what do you earn so much money for? If you don't have any descendants, why don't you just spend it on others?"

"Who said I don't have a grandson?" Zhuang Qing finally couldn't bear it and said, "My grandson is already in elementary school."

Li Maorong and Wang Guodong were stunned at the same time.

"When did your son get married?"

"Stop making trouble, your son isn't married yet, so where's the grandson?"

Wang Guodong said: "It looks like he drank too much alcohol."

"I can't drink any more," Li Maorong said, "Otherwise I'll talk about it when I go back."

Seeing that they didn't believe it, Zhuang Qing said, "I have a granddaughter who is in the first grade this year. She is five years old. She is the oldest child."

Wang Guodong: "Then...then why haven't I heard of it?"

Li Maorong: "That is, you didn't inform us of such a big event as your son's marriage. Are you looking down on our old brothers?"

"Old Zhuang, this is your fault. Although your family is rich now, don't you all come from a poor life? We have been friends for so many years, you are so chilling..."

Zhuang Qing frowned. He only found out about his granddaughter this year.

"Zhuang Yao is not married yet, but has a child."

Li Maorong and Wang Guodong were stunned again.

"... an illegitimate child?" It's common for wealthy families to have illegitimate children, but those of the older generation still don't accept it.

Zhuang Qing said: "It's not an illegitimate child, but it's just not married yet. Huai Xin said that he will make up the marriage when he is not busy." Song Huai Xin discussed with him about Zhuang Yao's marriage. They are now in the country and will be free next year , let Zhuang Yao and Bai Muhang get married and get a certificate.

No matter which country you go to, you still have to get married.

The two old men breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay. When we get married, we must invite us to have a wedding drink. I even hugged Yao Yao."

"Yes! The wedding must not be without us!"

This is a bit embarrassing, Zhuang Yao's partner is a man, and I don't know if these old guys can accept it.

Who cares, male daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law are both daughter-in-law, their family just accept it, and others don't care.

Zhuang Qing nodded: "Okay, I will inform you when the time comes."

One is a retired master of Chinese studies, and the other is a former professor of history at University B. Both are old-fashioned, and they don't know if their blood pressure will soar when they drink wedding wine.

When Zhuang Qing returned home, Song Huaixin put on a mask on the sofa and watched TV.

He stepped forward to help her husband take off his coat and change his shoes: "Why are you back so late?"

Zhuang Qing said: "We chatted for a while, why haven't you slept yet?"

"I'm waiting for you." Song Huaixin helped him go upstairs: "I can't sleep until you come back."

Zhuang Qing smiled: "I didn't drink much." Both Lao Li and Lao Wang couldn't drink, they couldn't drink much, and they talked too much.

Seeing that he was walking steadily, Song Huaixin knew that he didn't drink much: "I'll put water for you to take a bath."

"Okay." Zhuang Yao nodded, and happily shook his wife's hand.

In his life, being able to marry Song Huaixin is really a great blessing!

Thanks to his good looks back then, his wife took a fancy to him.

******

It's most comfortable to eat hot pot and hot dishes at home in cold weather, Xia Yunfei and his wife are fine today, Bai Muhang invited the two of them to come home for dinner.

Xiaobai has been thinking about the sheep scorpion for several days, and today he can finally eat it, so he always runs to the kitchen happily.

"Go to the living room and watch TV with your uncles." Bai Muhang refused to let her stay in the kitchen.

Xiaobai stood outside the door, holding the door open and only poked his head inside.

"Father." Xiao Bai called Bai Muhang.

Bai Muhang prepared the side dishes, but he didn't turn his head to ask, "Why?"

Xiaobai said, "Look at me."

Only then did Bai Muhang turn to look at her.

The little guy made a gesture of heart with his hands: "Daddy, I love you, mua~" It also has its own sound effects, and its small appearance is extremely cute.

Bai Muhang didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Where did you learn it?" The little guy always does things unexpectedly.

Xiaobai giggled, "I'm going to watch TV." He closed the kitchen door and ran away.

Bai Muhang smiled and shook his head, drained the washed cabbage and put it on a plate.

In the kitchen two large pots were simmering.

One is bone soup, and the other is lamb scorpion.

He got up early this morning to process the sheep scorpion, soaked it in cold water for a whole morning, added ice cubes and lemons, the ice cubes can expel the acid, and the lemon can soften the meat, making the meat of the sheep scorpion better.

There are also a lot of seasonings needed to make mutton scorpion. Cooking wine, onion, ginger, pepper and pepper are the most basic.

It is very important to really make delicious ingredients. Bai Muhang prepares the ingredients for the ingredients, such as fennel, pepper, bay leaves, cinnamon, nutmeg, angelica, etc...

This Angelica dahurica is a traditional Chinese medicine, it is used as a spice, not his daughter.

Stew with ingredients for two or three hours, and then simmer for half an hour on low heat. The moment the lid is lifted, the smell can make people drool.

He also prepared a lot of side dishes today, with a total of more than a dozen side dishes for meat and vegetarian dishes.

He also prepared some quail eggs that Xiaobai likes.

He pushed open the kitchen door and put the side dishes on the table first.

In the living room, Xia Yunfei and Xiaobai were playing clapping games, while Ye Xiao and Zhuang Yao were talking.

Bai Muhang said, "It's time to eat."

Xiaobai stood up with a wow: "Eat the sheep scorpion!"

Xia Yunfei squeezed her little hand, and imitated Xiaobai's tone: "Eat sheep and scorpions."

Xiaobai laughed twice, "Uncle Xia, have you heard the story of the wolf coming?" The children in the story of the wolf coming have eaten sheep scorpions.

Xia Yunfei said: I have heard of it. "But it's definitely not the version Xiaobai is familiar with.

Zhuang Yao was afraid that Xiaobai would suddenly become interested in telling stories, so he pulled her and said, "Wash your hands and eat."

Xiaobai said yes, and cheered, "Eat."

Zhuang Yao took her to wash her hands, and Bai Muhang had already put on the double-burner induction cooker, while heating the bottom of the bone soup pot, he was also heating the lamb scorpion.

Xia Yunfei and Ye Xiao were seated, and Bai Muhang said, "What wine to drink? There is also rice wine at home, if you want to drink, I will warm it up for you." Eating hot pot and drinking rice wine in winter keeps you warm.

Ye Xiao said: "I don't drink alcohol today, just have some drinks."

"Do you want to drink orange juice?" The family bought a lot of oranges, and he squeezed some fresh juice for Xiaobai to drink every day.

Xia Yunfei nodded: "Okay."

Sitting between Zhuang Yao and Bai Muhang, Xiao Bai smelled the aroma of the food: "It smells so good." His saliva almost flowed down.

Bai Muhang bought more than six catties of sheep scorpions and made a big pot full of them.

The stewed meat is very soft and rotten, and it comes down with a slight push of chopsticks. The two sides of the spine are broken apart, and the bone marrow inside can be seen, a small piece of white tender and smooth, like tofu.

Bai Muhang shaved off all the meat and put it in a small white bowl. The little guy ate happily.

He put all the quail eggs, egg dumplings and some meatballs into the bottom of the clear soup pot.

The bone broth is very fresh, and the cooked dishes can be eaten directly without adding any seasoning.

Most of the time, Bai Muhang was helping everyone cook the dishes, or making some food for Xiaobai.

Whether he is very hungry or not, he is very satisfied to see others eating deliciously.

Xiaobai had a good appetite today, and he also ate a lot. The dishes on the table were all eaten, Bai Muhang said: "There is still rice, do you want some rice?"

Xia Yunfei sweated from the heat: "I can't eat any more." It's so delicious, every time I come to Zhuang Yao's house for dinner, I always eat too much without knowing it.

"That's enough for me." Ye Xiao never eats too much. It's a professional habit, eating too much when filming will have an impact.

This is the first time this year that I feel like I have eaten too much.

"Then let's have some tea and take a break." Bai Muhang made them tea to relieve their tiredness.

Xiaobai said sadly, "Dad, my stomach has become so fat again." Sheep scorpions are so delicious, no wonder the sheep-herding children like to eat them.

Bai Muhang said, "Then when will my stomach not be fat?"

Xiaobai hummed twice, and Zhuang Yao stretched out his hand to rub her: "Do you want some Xiaoshi tablets?"

"What kind of digestion pills can you take, just walk home for a few minutes." Xiao Bai's dishes are all made by him, and Bai Muhang knows how much he has eaten.

Xiaobai didn't want to walk: "Dazhuang's father rub it for me."

Zhuang Yao hugged his daughter on his lap and rubbed his belly.

Xia Yunfei was envious again, and also wanted a girl, how cute the little girl is.

Ye Xiao pinched his chin to make him turn his head to look at him, and stop thinking about things all day long.
