I am in the courtyard, animals are just vegetables!

Yan Xi came back quietly and no one saw him until the next day. Yu Li and others also went to the Cao family to express their gratitude again.

Yu Li just wanted to know whether her son was still alive, and she didn't expect to see her only son again before she died.

Yu Li's will has not changed. It seems that Yan Xi also feels that 1 billion is a lot of money for him and he can never spend it all.

When they were leaving, Cao Dongfang said to Yan Xi, "You might as well go to Guangzhou instead of the northwest. People there are much more open-minded and many of them can accept your ideas. The northwest is still more closed."

"Thank you Uncle Cao, I know what to do." Yan Xi expressed his gratitude.

After returning home, Yu Li sighed, "You may not become rich and powerful after leaving here. Have you thought it through?"

"Mom, I'm sorry, I still want to leave here and live a peaceful life."

"It's better to leave. I won't persuade you anymore."

Two days later, Yu Li passed away while resting. She had changed her burial clothes before resting, and she still had some feeling left.

Yu Li's funeral was not large in scale, which might be related to Yan Xi's hobby. People in the compound helped, but they just avoided Yan Xi.

Cao Dongfang met Yu Haitang again after Yu Li's death. She had aged a lot and no longer looked like she did when she was young.

When meeting Xu Damao, we were both speechless!

Yu Li's death did not affect anyone's life.

After the seventh day after Yu Li's death, Yan Xi quietly left the courtyard and the old city alone. This time he went to a southern city.

Cao Dongfang dealt with Yu Li's will, bought the house, renovated it and let Ruirui and others move in.

The Cao family has a total of ten houses in the courtyard, seven of which can be lived in, and several of the houses have been separated, so there is no problem living in them for fifteen people.

Only Wenwen, who is over two years old, is left, and the family is a little quiet. Fortunately, Duan Huiying became pregnant with her second child in early May and will give birth in mid-January next year.

........

"Dongfang, you seem to be living an easy life now. It seems that after dealing with the problem of the foot basin man, you have no regrets in your heart." In mid-September, the four old classmates got together again.

"It has nothing to do with the people in the foot basin. I just need a legitimate reason to deal with them. I haven't done much myself in the past twenty years." Cao Dongfang said with a smile.

"We have been retired for three years and still have some strength. The first year was fine, but in the last two years, I wanted to go back to work. I am such a cheapskate and I am not suited to retirement life."

"You are just two scumbags, you have been like this since you were little. You are a private enterprise. Is there anyone who will stop you if you want to go to work?" Lu Fang would not let go of any opportunity.

"Lao Fangzi, what do you know? There is a kind of love called letting go, understand? What will others think if we go back to work now? It will disrupt the arrangements for many things.

This is not as simple as you said. It also concerns the prestige of our successor in the company. You have been working in the government department, so you don’t understand these things. "Ma Kangri despised Lu Fang.

"We want to work but we can't do it like before, and we don't have to work. When we get older, we don't even want to travel, let alone go to horse riding competitions."

"You really think you have an iron rod, but now it's just a thin needle. No, it's Lanzhou ramen." Lu Fang began to fight back.

"Better than you. He doesn't dare to compete in horse riding until he's 75. He often changes his shoes after peeing. It's all because of his prostate problems from sitting in the office. It's a serious problem!"

"Get lost, I never peed on my shoes." Lu Fang would never admit it even if he was beaten to death.

"Old Fangzi, we'll let you go. Dongfang, now the city of Sijiu has begun to beautify the city to welcome the 70th anniversary military parade. The scale is very large.

What else can we say when the Aerospace Force appears? “Ma Hua is very curious.

"Spoiler kills! You are an old-timer who is too curious."

"A man remains a boy until he dies. It's normal for a young man like me to be a little curious!" MCA also has its reasons.

"You are not dead yet, you are just an old gangster. Why are you pretending to be young? You are not the one to pretend to be young." Lu Fang quickly counterattacked.

"There's still half a month left, don't worry."

"There are already parade formations rehearsing on Qianmen Street, which has never happened before.

This shows that this year's military parade is taken very seriously, otherwise it would not be done this way. Dongfang, are you still not going to participate in this year's military parade? "

"Don't go."

"What a shame to miss such a good opportunity to show your face."

“I don’t need to show my face.”

"Too."

As early as three months ago, we invited 72 countries to watch the grand military parade to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

CCTV will broadcast live to the whole world at the same time, and more than 90% of the countries in the world will be able to see our military parade.

This time the military parade lasted more than three hours, a total of four hours, which is the longest time ever, so it is very exciting.

........

"Dongfang, you still won't participate in this year's military parade. This may be your last chance. Don't you want to think about it again?" Song Xianxian asked.

"No, that place is not suitable for me to go. If I can go, I can go anytime. I will retire in two or three years. When the country is peaceful and the people are prosperous, there is no reason for them to stop me.

I will stay at home with you more. I have worked hard for nearly 70 years and have not settled down to accompany you. "Cao Dongfang said with a smile.

"You were with us, too. At least from 1965 to 1973, you didn't have much to do."

"It's still different. This time I have nothing to do after retirement, so I can calm down and spend time with you."

"Are you going to resign from the Inspectorate?"

"Give it a try. It doesn't matter if you can't quit. One week a year is enough. You don't need me to show up in person."

"The country is different now than it was before. It shouldn't be a problem for you to retire and rest."

"There shouldn't be any big problems in the future. My dad should be able to retire. If there are any small problems, we will go and handle them. My dad is not completely retired. He will still come out if there is really a problem." Yangyang said.

"What do you mean by 'coming out of the mountains'? It's like I live in the mountains, just like the masters who lived in seclusion in the city before."

"Slip of the tongue."

"Ningning and Jingjing have a holiday during the National Day holiday, which is seven days this year. You can go and bring their two families back. Their child is almost one year and three months old.

I have only seen this three times before. We took the children back and left them there. After watching the military parade, they went back to work and we took care of the children so it didn't affect their work.

Both families are workaholics, and it is really difficult for them to raise their children.

The workplace is far from here, isn't there a workplace closer that's suitable for them? "Song Xianxian is worrying about nothing again.

“There is such a base, but it is different from their current research topic. It is on the way to Baozi City, about 70 kilometers away from us.

With me here, there is no difference between 70 kilometers and 1400 kilometers. If you want to go and see them, just tell me.

There are also "magnetic levitation" cars and trains. Cars can reach a maximum speed of 1,200 kilometers per hour outside the city. Trains will also reach a speed of about 1,000 kilometers per hour in a few years.

It is becoming more and more convenient to travel back and forth! "Ying Caodong did not say when the maglev car would be completed.

"What are the safety performance of the maglev car? If something happens, will their family be okay?" Song Xianxian thought of the jade pendants on everyone.

"They will be fine. Ningning and Jingjing are capable of protecting themselves. The others have jade pendants. Maglev cars are as safe as airplanes."

"Then let's buy them a maglev car and let them go home to visit when they have nothing to do." Song Xianxian wanted to buy one when she heard it was safe.

"These four are workaholics. They may not have a car, so they will go home more often. They will work so hard that they will forget to eat and sleep."

"dare!"

"Brother, bring Ping An and his wife back home. They also have a holiday during the National Day holiday and want to come back to watch the military parade.

Is there a place to watch the parade in person? Cao Jiajia asked.

"Miss Cao, if you want to watch the military parade in person, there must be a place, even if there is no place available," Cao Dongfang joked.

"I want to go to watch the military parade this year."

“We want to be there, too.”

"You all go."
