Chapter 1305 - 1177: Even Grandsons Already Have Their Own Families

Chapter 1305: Chapter 1177: Even Grandsons Already Have Their Own Families

Ping’an glared at his brother, knowing that among these people were also Grandpa and Grandma. He quickly changed the topic, "What’s the situation over there now?"

"Grandpa and Grandma didn’t live in the provincial city; our family courtyard was bought in vain. According to Second Aunt-in-law on the phone, Aunt went to the city to be with Uncle, but now she’s on vacation and returned to the county with her son."

Liu Yi snorted, "Big brother, look, isn’t it solved well? All they know is how to make things difficult for our dad. Does Dad owe them anything?"

May 1st opened his mouth and then shut it again.

He regretted revealing his grandfather’s phone calls to his dad; his little brother could really do anything when he’s angry.

"At least they were smart enough not to keep bothering our dad. Otherwise, I would have asked them, if that old lady were decades younger, would they have stuffed her with my dad even if there’s nowhere to put her? Or else, whose brothers, after separating families and having grandsons, still look for solutions with relatives?"

May 1st tried hard to suppress his laughter and quickly persuaded, "Little brother, you’re overthinking..."

"And you!" Liu Yi pointed the muzzle at him immediately, "I always said you were clever, and with you at home, both big brother and I wouldn’t worry. But now, you seem pretty dumb!"

May 1st, with a surprised open mouth, pointed at himself, looking at Ping’an: Was his little brother talking about him? Who doesn’t know that I have intelligence beyond the ordinary?

"You still don’t believe it? You said you received a letter. Why tell mom? You know she’s mentally tired every day. Couldn’t you go directly to Dad? No matter how Dad handles the relatives, it’s better than Mom."

Ping’an laughed and kicked Liu Yi on the leg, "That’s enough. You’re speaking nonsense." He even dared to say such nonsense about Aunt being decades younger and stuffing her with Dad; he’s really bold!

——Be careful, May 1st might report you to Father; even if you don’t die, you’ll lose a layer of skin! They really dare to say anything, these silly brothers really make him worried!

Liu Yi was stopped by him, shook his head speechlessly, and stretched out both hands to start making tea. It wasn’t that he was overthinking, but his dad, due to various reasons, couldn’t be ruthless, so it’s up to him as the son to relieve the father!

Luckily, his dad rejected them this time. He could imagine that if he didn’t, there would be more troubles later; all sorts of trivial matters would come up.

Those people back home didn’t realize a single thing.

His dad Zhang Guoqing was no longer what he used to be. Not to mention he already has three sons, but in terms of status, he couldn’t act lightly.

They still thought it would be like before, making his dad risk life and limb to support Old Zhang’s family by hunting, or expected him to pull up a bunch of nephews or even great-nephews with a command?

He was most annoyed by those who gain success without effort and don’t understand satisfaction.

They still thought one person’s success would benefit even chickens and dogs?

Wake up, Daqing has long been extinct!

After Liu Yi calmed down, May 1st explained, "Little brother, that’s Dad’s elder brother; they’re three brothers just like we are three brothers. I didn’t look for Dad because I was afraid it would trouble him."

Liu Yi looked up and glanced at him sideways, continuing to make tea.

"Dad voluntarily refusing them is fine, but if it’s due to us three brothers’ wishes to refuse Grandpa and them, would he feel okay? I wanted to mention it to Mom to persuade him."

"Nonsense!"

"How is it nonsense? That’s our dad, our biological dad!"

Liu Yi chuckled and rolled his eyes at him, "I know our dad is the biological dad. But have you thought about it? Those people are making things difficult for him!"

His implication was clear to Ping’an and May 1st. Since they were making things difficult for their dad, why bother with the concepts of elders or brothers?

"Xiao Wu is back? Jiao Jiao is upstairs, Ping’an and Liu Yi are home, I’ll serve dinner soon."

"Oh, these two wild kids finally came home. If they didn’t come back, Mom would have gone to school asking for them." Zhang Guoqing’s laughter echoed.

The three brothers in the study stood up quickly at the sound.

"In front of Dad, don’t talk about these things."

"I understand."

"Let’s spend time with Dad these days and make him happy."

May 1st watched Liu Yi, who jumped out of the door after speaking, rolling his eyes. Who doesn’t say he’s the family’s jolly one? You ran fast, but now I have to cheer up Dad.

Ping’an and Liu Yi stood in front of Zhang Guoqing, "Dad, you got off work late today. Was it busy?"

"We originally planned to pick you up from work, but Mom was home alone."

Zhang Guoqing pulled his sons in turn and glanced at them, lowering his voice, "You didn’t get hurt, did you?"

The two brothers exchanged a smile, and Ping’an quickly reassured him, "Dad, we’re all fine."

"Dad, later we can go to the bathhouse with you."

After Liu Yi said this, Zhang Guoqing relaxed his worried mind. If they dared say let’s go to the bathhouse together, they’re really uninjured.

"Dad, you only see the two brothers, not me?"

When Zhang Guoqing saw the little son coming up to him, he playfully slapped his forehead and laughed, "Are you getting jealous? Isn’t that acting like a small woman?"

May 1st looked at him mournfully, "I knew beauty is born from distance, and indeed, because I’m in front of you every day, you don’t love me anymore."

Upstairs, Zhou Jiao heard Aunt Chen and Zhang Guoqing talking downstairs in the courtyard, while she was in the bedroom tidying up a pile of daily items from the hidden space.

Ever since the old house was renovated, the basement she specially set aside was occupied by her sons’ "junk," leaving only one in her small courtyard.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t big enough inside.

And she dared not let Zhang Guoqing dig another basement.

The soil dug out could be solved with her space by dumping it in some remote valley, but she feared that if something happened in the future, they’d be finished.

The basement under the original pond was quite large, but it was left by the previous owner. Although it was empty without any goods back then, who knows if there’s someone who understands this mechanism?

Hence, she directly used it as her sons’ "treasure room."

It’s not that she looked down on the kids’ junk, it’s just that the items in her hands are truly precious, each piece is a rare item with commemorative value.

Nowadays, her small courtyard’s basement is filled with household furniture taken from the space, yet it’s still not enough, and she doesn’t know why?

Perhaps she was terrified by the famine of those years; she couldn’t quit the weird habit of collecting good things, leading to emptying a corner quickly filled up again.

But times have changed.

Like fabrics, even the ordinary kind, occupy space and waste resources.

Plus, there’s the game meat.

Her husband and sons seem to be competing; now there are still unslaughtered prey in the space, do they need to find time to deal with them before the New Year?

"Honey, what are you doing hiding in the room?"

"Sorting things."

Zhou Jiao opened the door to let him in, but before she could make a request.

Zhang Guoqing smilingly told her a piece of news: he’d already arranged with Yi Jiefang to go hunting the day after tomorrow; this time he would drive her to have fun.

So... does this mean more stuff will be added to the space?
