Dreaming of Lion Rock: Recipe in Hand

It was fine for adults to take the sleeper, but it was more difficult for the children. Fortunately, Chuci and his sister were not crybaby. They were very well behaved except for whining when they were hungry and had poop. The brother and sister were very curious about the train, as if they had found a new toy. Except for eating and sleeping, they would walk around in the carriage. Fortunately, there were many adults, so it was not difficult to take care of two children!

The group arrived at the Imperial Capital Railway Station smoothly. Uncle Chu Xiong and the eldest cousin had been waiting at the exit. The two were almost tired of waiting when they saw Old Master Chu walking out of the station with a cane and a group of people. When he saw his son and grandson, he waved his cane angrily.

"You unfilial descendants, you knew I was coming back, but you didn't even come to pick me up!!"

Chuxiong...Are the boss and I not human beings? Or does the old man want the whole family to come and pick us up?

But when he saw the cane in Old Master Chu's hand, he didn't say anything to refute. Why did the fear of being dominated by his old father's cane come back? ! However, after not seeing him for a long time, the old man is still so energetic! Ah! No, it should be old and strong!

Mrs. Chu hadn't seen her children and grandchildren for a long time, so she didn't care about the old man who was pretending to be so arrogant. She held her eldest grandson's hand and refused to let go. "Don't worry about that damn old man. He thinks he is Sun Wukong and wants to be the king at home!"

Old Master Chu didn't want to be king, he just wanted some face, but that useless old son wouldn't let him do it! Just imagine, when he returns to the imperial capital, all his children and grandchildren will come out to pick him up. Those old men and women in the imperial capital will be so envious!

Chu Xiong knew what Old Master Chu was thinking, so he quickly explained, "Dad, my wife is busy preparing for the welcoming banquet at home! The two boys are helping! My sister is also helping the eldest daughter-in-law take care of the baby."

Old Man Chu felt much better, but he was still unforgiving, "See if they can cook a flower!"

Mrs. Chu glanced at the old man calmly, and the old man fell silent instantly. Forget it, the old woman has been with me all my life. For her sake, I will temporarily bypass those unfilial descendants! I will clean up after the New Year and open a good business with them!

By the way, why do my hands itch every time I go to the capital?

Mrs. Chu ignored the old man's thoughts and waved her hand. Qiu Guo and Yan Ning came over, calling him uncle one after another, which made Chu Xiong so happy that he didn't know which way was which! Daughters are better. They are so well-behaved, unlike sons, who are naughty and can do anything! Chu Xiong, who has three sons but no daughter, has no one to tell his worries!

Old Master Chu couldn't stand seeing Haodaer smiling like a big chrysanthemum, so he interrupted and asked, "Are we going back on foot?"

Old Master Chu didn't look serious. When he was serious, he was not a human being. Ahem, Chu Xiong was a little afraid of his father's majesty and said hurriedly: "How can that be possible! I borrowed a car from the company. There are so many people, I'm afraid I have to go back and forth twice!"

Guan Jian felt that he had no sense of existence. He was worried about that incident, and his heart was burning. He felt guilty when he saw Chu Xiong! He didn't go forward to join in the fun! He touched his nose and prepared to go find his eldest brother. Didn't they say they would send a car to pick him up?

Finally, Chunni and her group squeezed into two cars and returned to the Chu family courtyard in a lively and chattering manner.

The car could only drive to the entrance of the alley, and a group of people were holding children and carrying luggage, making it very lively.

The neighbors had already poked their heads out, and when they saw that the old couple from the Chu family had returned, they all went out to greet them.

"Uncle Chu, I haven't seen you for a few years. You look more energetic!"

"It's just so-so. My granddaughter is filial and doesn't need me to worry about anything. She eats well and sleeps well in the village. Look, her white hair has turned black." She even opened her scalp seriously for the old man to see.

Chuxiong: "..." Why do I feel like my old father is referring to me?

"Really?" The onlookers came closer to take a closer look at Old Master Chu's scalp and nodded in agreement.

"The countryside is still better. The yard is big and it is convenient to grow flowers and vegetables." Someone praised the countryside.

Some people who don't get along well with Old Master Chu complained: "The countryside is great. You can even have close contact with Grandpa Pig when you go to the toilet!"

Old Master Chu looked carefully and found that it was his old acquaintance, Old Man Guan. Old Master Chu was so angry! Didn't they say that Old Man Guan was going abroad? Why was he still so rude? He couldn't help but retort: ​​"Old Guan, didn't you say that you were going abroad to see a bigger and rounder moon? Why are you still here?"

Old Guantou: "..." Didn't I come here specially to pick someone up? Why can't I control my mouth? It must be because Old Man Chu's chrysanthemum face is too annoying!

Guan Jian had to interrupt Old Man Chu who was in the middle of a conversation and said, "Uncle Chu, my brother and I are going back! New Year's Eve is in two days, and I wish you a happy new year in advance!" Guan Jian paused, rubbed his red hands, and hesitated to speak.

"Okay, everyone is here, why don't you leave quickly! Your parents are waiting for you, go back quickly!" After saying this, Old Master Chu waved his hand nonchalantly. This cheap son-in-law is trying to take his cabbage, how can he be nice to him? !

Old Master Chu continued chatting with his old friends, but Old Lady Chu didn't want to stand in the cold wind in the alley, so she led her children and grandchildren back home.

Chu Xiong and Guan Jian were childhood friends. They knew each other when they were wearing open-crotch pants. Chu Xiong felt that Guan Jian was a bit suspicious. He didn't dare to provoke his father, but he could ask his mother, "Mom, what's wrong with Guan Jian? Why didn't he come up to say hello to me?"

The old mother glanced at her eldest son nonchalantly and said, "That's your business, how should I know? Go home quickly, don't let Chuchu and Cici get cold!"

Chu Xiong: "..." He always felt that the old couple disliked him.

The group finally arrived at the Chu family in the snowy wind. The gate of the Chu family was already wide open, and the snow had been swept clean. When Chu Hua heard the voice, he came out to greet him.

"Mom, you're back! Was it hard to take the train?" He took the small bag from Mrs. Chu and said, "Chun Ni, Yan Qing, Qiu Guo, Yan Ning, Dong Lin, please come in quickly. It's cold outside."

"Hey, where's my dad?" After everyone entered the house, Chu Hua realized that Old Master Chu was not in the crowd.

"Don't bother with him, he's just bragging in the alley!" Old Mrs. Chu said angrily.

My aunt and my cousin and their wife also came to the main room, making it a lively scene.

There was snow outside, but it was warm inside.

Chunni took off her down jacket and sighed comfortably, "The capital is still the best, it's just like spring at home."

Chu Hua hugged Chu Chu and said, "If you like it, stay a few more days. There are too many people here to stay. Move your luggage to my place later."

Chunni nodded. There were too many people in her grandfather's house to accommodate them.

Chu Hua's house was not far from Chu's, but it was much bigger. As soon as you entered the door, you could see a brick-carved screen wall with the word "Fu". After entering the door, there was a large courtyard with two ginkgo trees that were as thick as a man's embrace. There were three main rooms and two side rooms on each side.

"Chun Ni, come in quickly. I haven't done much to tidy up this yard since I bought it. I haven't planted any flowers or anything yet. Please don't mind."

Chunni knew that Chu Hua had been living in the Chu family and had cleaned up the house for them, so how could she mind?

"Aunt, your yard is great! It's spacious and grand!"

Chu Hua held Qiu Guo's hand and Dong Lin's hand and walked back. "Let's go and walk around the yard first."

Chunni and Yanqing hurriedly followed. Unexpectedly, there was a different world behind!

He Yanqing grew up in a well-off family, and he had never seen a family with such a large garden! He couldn't help but praise: "This small garden is nice, it can be as good as a park if it is tidied up!"

Chun Ni, a country bumpkin, was stunned. "I didn't expect there would be rockery and flowing water. Could this be the residence of some prince or minister in the past?"

Chu Hua was quite satisfied with the house. Seeing everyone praising it, he couldn't help but smile, "I heard it was the villa of some prince. There are two small courtyards inside!"

Chunni said she really wanted to own a house like this! In the capital city where every inch of land is worth a lot of money, after 30 years, this house would be worth hundreds of millions.

"Oh, I want to buy one like this, but I'm short of money!"

He Yanqing touched Chunni's head and sighed. Even if they put all their wealth together, they couldn't afford it. But since they couldn't afford such a big one, they could consider a small one.

Chu Hua comforted him, "It's a rare opportunity. You can buy this house because of the right time, right place and right people. Don't worry, you are still young, and you will find a suitable house one day. Speaking of houses, Uncle Guan is going to live abroad, I don't know if he will sell the house?"

Chunni immediately became interested. "How big is Grandpa Guan's house? Is it also nearby?"

"The house he lives in now is about the same size as my home. I heard that the government returned his other two large houses some time ago, which should also be nearby. That is his ancestral home, and I don't know if he is willing to sell it."

Of course, Old Man Guan was unwilling to do so. "No, these properties were left by our ancestors. I finally found them and I will never sell them."

Guan Zhien, the old man's son, had no other choice but to comfort his stubborn father: "Dad, we are all overseas, and there is no servant to look after the house. If no one lives there, the house will fall into disrepair sooner or later!"

Old man Guan's face flushed, and he was panting heavily. He was obviously mad at his son. He grabbed the broom and started beating him. "I told you to curse the house. Why didn't you tell me to go to hell? I haven't seen you for so many years. It seems that no one has given you a break. You are so lawless and forget your ancestors! I will teach you a lesson, you bastard!"

Guan Zhien said: Dad is so full of life! It won't be a problem to beat him for another 20 years!
