Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

The Japanese devils, harboring wolfish ambitions, were eager to spread their industries across the land of China to achieve their ulterior motives.

Why would they want to offend a powerful minister whose department happens to have the authority to interfere in Mitsubishi's key revenue-generating industries?

So one pretended not to be there and refused to see the other, while the other pretended to be deaf and dumb as if the other wasn't there.

Time was quickly approaching the final deadline.

On the same day, the Japanese delegation boarded a direct flight to Beijing.

Chapter 674 News of Jia Geng, Zhiyi Has...

When Tsumura arrived in Beijing, he was personally received by the Minister of the State Drug Administration, with a level of reception comparable to that given to Lou Xiao'e when she visited.

The elders hosted a banquet, where they discussed Tsumura Company's investments in the inland areas.

Yang Jianguo didn't participate, but he knew his name would be on the agenda at the meeting.

Tsumura Corporation came here specifically for him.

"Jianguo, why do you look so preoccupied today?"

During the meal, Yingzi noticed that he seemed somewhat absent-minded.

After asking a question and receiving no response, Yingzi couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder: "Jianguo, Jianguo?"

"Ah, what's wrong?" Yang Jianguo looked up suddenly, his expression full of questions.

He didn't hear a single word Yingzi had said.

"Why do you look so troubled?" Yingzi asked again.

"It's not a big deal at work, don't worry about it."

"Are you really alright?" Yingzi asked, somewhat nervously.

I haven't seen him in a long time, and he's lost his composure because of work.

She could hardly remember when the last time was.

Yang Jianguo relaxed and smiled, saying, "It's really nothing, don't worry!"

"Hmm~ You should also take better care of your health. Don't just think about work all day. Nobody's made of iron."

"Okay, go ahead and eat!" Yang Jianguo nodded with a smile.

"By the way, Jia Geng came back a few days ago, carrying a lot of things for his mother. He looks like he's made a fortune."

"Really?" Yang Jianguo thought for a moment and asked, "Is he still working at the factory?"

Neon Precision's suburban branch in Beijing, the factory owned by Ma Degui, is doing quite well now.

It has become the world's largest production plant outside of China.

The company's annual shipments reach over 30 million units, with a turnover exceeding 1 billion yuan.

"Yes, I heard from Huai Ru that he was promoted to director, so at least she doesn't have to worry about him anymore."

"Are you married?" Yang Jianguo asked.

Judging by his age, he should be approaching forty this year.

"They said they've started dating and are living together, but they have no plans to get married. I don't know what kids these days are thinking."

Yingzi also had something to say about this.

Young people these days talk about love at first sight and feelings.

Those days were lived by two people, and feelings were cultivated through interaction.

Where do so many cases of love at first sight come from? Feelings, feelings, what are feelings?

If it feels right, what if he's a thug or a hooligan? Would you still follow him?

"Each generation has its own ideas, and no one can control that."

This is just the beginning. Just wait a few years and you'll see. The situation can only be described in four words: utterly shattered values!

Sometimes reality is far more magical than any movie or novel.

"Let the young people worry about their own affairs. There is no dynasty that lasts for ten thousand years in this world."

Yingzi was stunned, her mind racing, unsure of what to say.

These words don't sound like they should come from his mouth.

Yang Jianguo also knew that his emotions were somewhat unstable.

So he buried his head in his rice and stopped making a sound.

The meal was eaten in complete silence, which is unusual for the two of them.

So much so that when Yang Zhiyi, who came home for a free meal, entered the house, she felt that the atmosphere was a bit off.

"Mom, did Dad make you angry?"

Yingzi shook her head and said with a laugh, "When has your dad ever offended me? There's no one better than him with that temper."

"That's only true for you. He's not like this outside." Yang Zhiyi had seen him lose his temper before, and it was terrifying.

However, it wasn't him who made his mother angry. What happened between the two of them?

After hesitating for a while, Yang Zhiyi tentatively asked, "Then... it's you who made my dad angry."

"Go away, are you hoping we'll fight?" Yingzi glared at her, annoyed.

Yang Zhiyi said with great interest, "I'm actually quite curious."

“I’ve been married all these years and I’ve never seen you and my dad argue. I really want to know what it’s like when you two fight.”

No sooner had she finished speaking than she received a slap on the back of the head: "How old are you? Can't you act like a mother?"

“I haven’t even been appointed yet!” Yang Zhiyi retorted.

Bringing this up, Yingzi finally found an outlet for all the things she had to say.

"You're already so old, why don't you hurry up and have a child? Women need to have children early so they can recover more easily."

"When your physical functions decline, having another child will be a real ordeal. It's not just the pain during childbirth that's unbearable, but the inability to recover afterwards is a lifelong problem."

"Mom, we're both so busy with work, where would we find the time to take care of the child!"

"But you still have your mother here. This yard is so big, no matter how many babies you have, there's enough space to run around."

"Do you think I'm a pig, with seven or eight pigs in one litter?"

“Go away, this child is getting more and more outrageous.”

"Hehe~" Yang Zhiyi bit her chopsticks and laughed like a fool.

But just a moment ago he was smiling, the next second his expression changed.

His face turned pale, his brows furrowed as he swallowed the cigarette saliva, then with a "whoosh," he turned his head and spat it onto the ground.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Hearing the commotion, Yingzi nervously dropped the pot she was holding.

Yang Jianguo, who was sitting at his desk, also rushed to his daughter's side.

"Zhiyi, where do you feel unwell?"

"Don't ask anymore, let's go to the hospital first."

Seeing her stammering and covering her mouth as if vomiting, Yang Jianguo picked her up and carried her outside without saying a word.

"Dad, Dad, I'm fine... I just feel nauseous... I feel like throwing up."

Yang Jianguo stopped at the door, and Yingzi looked at her suspiciously: "Girl, you're not pregnant, are you?"

Zhiyi stared blankly, thinking about her period, wondering when her last period was.

Half an hour later, all four members of the family arrived at the hospital.

Holding his wife's hand, Tongwei looked at the doctor with a mixture of nervousness and excitement.

Congratulations, you are indeed pregnant.

These words instantly struck the softest spot in everyone's heart.

"I've got it, haha, I really have it..." Tongwei danced with joy, grabbing Zhiyi's hand and kissing it repeatedly, saying, "I'm going to be a dad."

Yang Jianguo hugged Yingzi, his face also filled with relief and anticipation: "Now, your wish has come true."

Hearing him say that, Yingzi nudged his waist lightly with her elbow and said with a playful laugh, "What, don't you want to hold your grandson?"

"Of course I want to, how could I not?" Yang Jianguo certainly wanted to, he just didn't say it.

As you get older, there are some things that are beyond your control.

Nowadays, I like children more and more. When I hear children's troubles, I don't find them noisy. Instead, I can't help but want to get closer to them.

That's why they say time waits for no one!

Chapter 675 Moving, Xiao Dang's Insistence

Zhiyi's pregnancy has boosted the energy of the whole family.

Yingzi started planning how to prepare a balanced diet for her every day.

Qi Tongwei also said to Zhiyi, "I'll report to my superiors and I won't be going on any business trips for a while."

"Tongwei, work matters are not to be joked about; you still have to follow the organization's arrangements."

"Your mother and I will take good care of Zhiyi and will never let her go hungry or cold."

Yang Jianguo's words were agreed upon by Yang Zhiyi.

She nodded and said with a kind smile, "Listen to Dad, you can't neglect your work. What woman doesn't have children? Nobody's that delicate."

Qi Tongwei wanted to say, "My woman is just that delicate."

But he also knew that he couldn't persuade this family of three on his own.

Don't be fooled by Zhiyi's gentle and lively demeanor, or her seemingly easygoing and agreeable nature.

When it comes to things she's committed to, not even eight horses or nine oxen could pull her back.

"Okay, whatever you say." Qi Tongwei said with a doting expression.

At this point, whatever my wife says is right.

Nothing else matters; all he wants now is for his wife to be happy and for her to give birth to the baby safely.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, go back!" the doctor said, urging people to hurry up, as there were still many people waiting in line behind them.

Yang Jianguo drove the car in front, while Qi Tongwei followed behind with Zhiyi.

The family of four first went to Tongwei's house, packed their things, and helped Zhiyi move to the courtyard house.

From today onwards, she will be living with her parents.

Tongwei is just too busy with work. He's always on assignments, and it's common for him to be away from home for half a month at a time.

If we let him take care of Zhiyi, we won't even be able to contact her if something unexpected happens.

After all, all external communications must be cut off when carrying out a mission; that's the rule, and as the leader, he should be even more obligated to abide by it.

"Dad, Mom, how about I take some time off?"

"Alright, can you take ten months off?" Yang Jianguo laughed and said, "Your daughter is with her parents, what are you worried about?"

Qi Tongwei wasn't worried; he was just reluctant to part with it...

However, he also knew that this was the best arrangement, as his parents' place was spacious, had a car, and had someone to take care of them.

It's so much more convenient than leaving your wife alone at home.

“Okay, then I’ll live at home from now on.” Qi Tongwei decided to follow his wife’s lead and move back with her.

Yang Jianguo and Yingzi exchanged a smile and said, "That's good. It will make the house more lively in the future."

They packed several large bags of clothes and took all the vegetables, meat, and food with them.

The family moved back into the courtyard, and the lively commotion made Qin Huairu curious, so she came out and asked, "Master's wife, what are you all doing?"

“Zhiyi is pregnant, so we’re discussing having her move back in.”
