In the dead of night,
The room was pitch black after the lights were switched off. Lin Yi called out softly," Wife, is our daughter asleep?”
They had agreed to sleep next to each other tonight.
However, when she was about to lie down, Yang Qing was worried that the child would pull the blanket at night.
It was already the beginning of autumn, so it was easy to catch a cold when the seasons changed. Therefore, Lin Yi and she could only sleep on one side and let the children sleep in the middle. It was convenient for them to take care of the two children and cover them with blankets.
As a result, the idea of sleeping next to each other was ruined.
Lin Yi could only wait for his daughters to fall asleep before doing what adults did.
"No."
Yang Qing replied softly.
Why aren't you asleep yet?
It seemed that the next story couldn't be too exciting. It made them very excited. Even though she was lying down, she wasn't sleepy at all.
After a few minutes, Nan Nan, who was beside Lin Yi, had already fallen asleep. Lin Yi called out again," Wife, is Qianqian asleep?”
"Keep your voice down. Not yet."
Yang Qing replied softly.
Lin Yi widened his eyes and looked at the darkness in front of him. After a few minutes of being in a daze, he thought to himself,'It's time to sleep.'
"Wife, is Qianqian asleep?"
However,
This time, no one responded.
What was going on?
Lin Yi continued to shout,
"Wife?"
"Wife?"
At this moment, a tender voice sounded." Daddy, Mommy is already asleep.”
WT？
They agreed to coax their daughter to sleep and then do something together.
In the end, her daughter was still sleeping, but she fell asleep first.
Lin Yi was left alone in the darkness.
……
The next morning, Yang Qing woke up early to cook porridge. Although her cooking skills were a little worse than Lin Yi's, the ingredients were good, so no matter how she cooked, it would taste good.
Seeing Lin Yi get up, Yang Qing did not realize what had happened last night.
"Lin Yi, didn't you sleep well last night?”
"Did Qianqian wake you up? Why don't you sleep a little longer? It's a public holiday today.”
"Why are you looking at me? Is there something wrong?”
Yang Qing saw that Lin Yi did not respond and only looked at her angrily.
Before he came back, when Qianqian wanted to eat candy, she was reluctant to give it to her. Qianqian would look at her like this.
The father and daughter were simply carved out of the same mold.
"What did you promise me last night?"
Lin Yi came in front of her and hugged her waist.
Yang Qing was embarrassed to do such an intimate thing in broad daylight, even in the house.
Besides, his two daughters would wake up at any time.
However, Lin Yi's words reminded her of the promise she made last night. Although she was shy, she was also too embarrassed to push Lin Yi away.
"I…accidentally fell asleep."
Yang Qing felt embarrassed and amused at the same time.
She was already so old, yet she was still acting like a child.
However, being held in his arms made her feel at ease.
"Then how are you going to compensate me?"
Lin Yi turned her around and looked at her face to face.
That shy face was right in front of him.
The hot air hit her face, making Yang Qing a little confused. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed Lin Yi on the cheek.
Her heart started to beat wildly, and the redness on her face spread all the way to the back of her ears.
To her,
Doing such a thing during the day was already very bold.
"I want one too."
Lin Yi planned to strike while the iron was hot and take her little lips.
However, at this moment, Qianqian suddenly sat up with her eyes wide open and called out," Mommy.”
Yang Qing was so scared that her heart was thumping wildly. She quickly pushed Lin Yi away.
Lin Yi turned around and saw that Qianqian's eyes were still closed. Clearly, she hadn't slept well and had been woken up by the stifling sensation.
He was helpless.
Didn't they say that a daughter is a father's little cotton jacket? It's fine if you don't help your father, but why are you ruining his plans?
……
Today was a public holiday.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, there had been a total of four holidays and seven days of rest.
They were New Year's Day for one day, Spring Festival for three days, May Day for one day, and National Day for two days.
In addition, the entire country implemented an eight-hour working day and a 48-hour working week. He worked six days a week, and Sunday was a public holiday.
Today was Sunday.
After breakfast, Lin Yi brought his family of five (including Tiger Head) to pay respects to his parents.
Back then, when his parents passed away suddenly, the family's savings were all spent, and they still owed a lot of money.
Yang Qing couldn't afford to buy a good cemetery for her parents, so she could only bury them on a small hill in the suburbs, not far from Urban area.
However, the mountain road was rugged and they couldn't drive. Lin Yi and the others still had to walk for a while.
It was already noon after paying respects to his parents.
Back in the car, Lin Yi discussed with Yang Qing," Mom and Dad can't stay here forever. In a few decades, this place will be developed and become a new city. At that time, Mom and Dad's graves will definitely be dug up.”
This was considered a mass burial, and there were no legal procedures.
Therefore, even if you occupied the land, no one would care about you when you were about to start digging in the future, let alone compensate you.
And even if there was compensation, Lin Yi didn't plan to do it.
Just to make up for it, they let their dead parents occupy the land? Lin Yi could not do such a wicked and unfilial thing.
"It's all my fault. I made Mom and Dad suffer.”
Yang Qing lowered her head and her eyes instantly became moist.
She was raised by her parents and could be considered the daughter of the Lin family. Now that she had become the daughter-in-law of the Lin family, she was even closer to them, but she was helpless.
Every time she paid her respects to her parents, she would feel that she was unfilial.
"Don't blame yourself. I came back late.”
Lin Yi gently stroked her hair and comforted her.
In this era, graves were the same as houses. They were not very expensive. With Lin Yi's ability, he could definitely afford a very good location.
With his connections, this matter was settled in a day.
Siheyuan,
Jia Zhang-shi fulfilled her promise and went to buy materials to renovate the courtyard.
She was in her fifties, almost sixty, and had never done such a thing before. She definitely wouldn't do it herself.
It happened to be a public holiday. Yan Bugui found Jia Zhangshi and wanted her to hire his family as temporary workers, but Jia Zhangshi refused.
Although Yan Bugui was good at scheming, Jia Zhang-shi was no pushover.
She knew very well that if Yan Bugui was in charge, the front yard would be better than the middle yard. His Yan family's entrance was definitely better than other people's.
This little thought couldn't be hidden from Granny Zhang.
She was already extremely reluctant to spend money. How could she let others take advantage of her?
Moreover, today was a public holiday, so Qin Huairu was resting too.
There was also Silly Zhu. He had no job, so he had more time.
Jia Zhang-shi once again had ideas about Silly Zhu.
