Old Madam Xiao Li was not so impulsive. She told her daughter to calm down and said to Father Li, "Tianhao, I've never thought of leaving this house since I came in."
"As for you, you don't have the ability to chase me away. I've been in charge of this place for my entire life. I've been taking care of everything in this house. Although you've made a name for yourself now, you still want to chase me away. If you really do that, I won't let you off so easily."
Father Li chuckled and gestured for his wife to pour him a glass of water. He needed to have a good chat with his stepmother.
On the other side, Ye received Li Jinnian's reply. Father Li, whom she had never seen before, would not be celebrating the New Year at Dangui Garden.
When Old Master Li heard this, he did not feel that it was a pity. He knew that his son-in-law was cold-hearted. Back then, he did not agree to his daughter's marriage because he saw that his son-in-law was not a good person.
He was such a cold-hearted man, but his daughter insisted on falling head first. In the end, her body was covered in injuries. Only then did she slowly realize that she had married the wrong person.
What she thought of as love was just her own wishful thinking.
Forget it, if he didn't come, then so be it.
"If he doesn't come, then so be it. We'll just wait for your brother to come back. Then, the whole family will be here." Old Master Li's mood was not affected by this. His son-in-law was no longer his son-in-law. He was giving face to his grandson, Jinnian.
He thought about how when Old Man Li was still around, his son-in-law naturally had to return to the Li family's old mansion for the New Year. Once the backbone of the Li family, Old Man Li, left, the Li family only had Old Madam Xiao Li left. This person did not get along with the first wife's son. Now that the old man was no longer around, it was not surprising that something would happen at the dinner table on New Year's Eve.
Old Master Li let his son-in-law come over for the New Year because he did not want Li Jinnian to worry about the Li family.
Since his son-in-law did not appreciate it, then so be it.
Father Fu washed up and changed his clothes. Ye Chien circled around Father Fu like a lark, chattering non-stop. Father Fu was extremely patient. Facing his only daughter, as long as Ye Chien asked anything, Father Fu would answer with a smile.
"There are only a few days of New Year's Eve. There's a traffic jam at the airport, and there's still a traffic jam on the way back from the airport in Beijing. They're all rushing home for the New Year."
The old man smiled and said, "Spring Festival is the biggest festival in our country. People who go out to work will rush home. Naturally, the roads will be congested."
"Nowadays, our country's transportation is quite developed. We have all kinds of highways, railways, and planes. It's many times better than our era. There was one year when I rushed back to Beijing for the New Year. First, I rode my bike to a village and stayed with a fellow villager for a night. The next morning, I took a donkey cart from my fellow villager to the town. Then, I took a tractor from the town to the city. Finally, I took a bus from the city to the provincial train station. Only then did I really get on the train home. "
"It only took a week on the road. After that, your grandmother and I never returned to Beijing for the New Year. Your father and aunt stayed with our fellow villager until they were ten years old. Only then did your grandfather send them back to Beijing. They had been living in school."
Life back then was difficult, but there was hope. No matter how difficult it was, they gritted their teeth and got through it.
Father Fu still had a deep impression of what happened when they were young. "At that time, other children looked forward to the New Year. Your aunt and I did not look forward to it at all. Other people's New Year was filled with joy. At our home, it was so cold that ice formed on the walls every day."
Only by remembering the bitterness would one be able to recall the sweetness. Papa Fu did not hide the bitterness of the past. He wanted Ye Jian to know that compared to the past, today's days were all better.
