Mu Tangchuan turned his head to look at her and quickly retracted his gaze.

“I think they’re a pair of jokers. They seem to be in a good state of mind, and they don’t look like they’re at their age.”

“That’s because their minds are in such a state of mind. Moreover, my grandparents often go to the mountains for a walk. The air in the countryside is good, and people live in a relatively comfortable environment. So, this is a good way to maintain a state of mind.”

Although Zhuang Shurong did not often live in the countryside, she occasionally envied the short life in the countryside. It was just that it was not as convenient as living in the city.

Being aloof from worldly affairs was actually more suitable for the description of the Zhuang couple’s life.

. 

“That’s true. In fact, when Grandfather and Grandmother were not willing to live in the city, I did not quite understand. But now that I see their life like this, I understand. Grandmother said that she prefers to live alone with Grandfather. When I was younger, she still wanted to take care of me. Now that I’m sensible and Grandfather has retired, she decided to stay in the countryside with Grandfather.”

“Grandmother seems to have a special liking for the life in the countryside?”

“Grandmother is a person who has been to the countryside and came from the countryside. She said that she has feelings for the mountains.”

Zhuang Shurong smiled helplessly. “She often told Grandfather about such a yearning, so Grandfather probably wanted to make up for the grievances she had suffered over the years, so he gave in to her.”

As the two of them spoke, the sound of an old couple arguing could be heard from the kitchen.

“I told you that you put too much salt in it, and you still need to add soy sauce later, it’ll be salty! Why don’t you believe me!”

Elder Zhuang’s voice was filled with dissatisfaction.

“Can’t I just add a little water if it’s salty? I don’t need your comments and lecture on how to cook. If you’re so capable, you can do it!”

Elder Madam Zhuang’s voice was not one to be outdone. “I despise people like you the most, you just like to criticize others without knowing how to do it yourself, as if you’re the only person in the world who knows how to cook. I can do whatever I like, get out and don’t be in my way.”

“What do you mean by being in your way? Without my guidance, your culinary skills can be outstanding, but practice also depends on the guidance of theory. Don’t you understand this principle?”

Elder Master Zhuang was unconvinced. “You’re good at everything, but you’re hot-tempered and not modest. If others point out your shortcomings, you should be humble and accept it. To be a worthy teacher…”

“To be a worthy teacher! I don’t need you to teach me on how to be a worthy teacher, get out!”

Elder Madam Zhuang’s impatient voice was heard, followed by a series of slaps. Before Mu Tangchuan and Zhuang Shurong could react, Elder Zhuang had been pushed out of the kitchen by his old wife.

‘Bang!’

The sound of the door closing could be heard. Elder Zhuang turned his head and saw that the two children were looking at him. His aged face seemed to be a little embarrassed. He cleared his throat and said, “Well, your grandmother is not modest. She’s still angry with me for not giving her a chance to play mahjong last night. Ignore her, let’s continue drinking tea, let’s.”

Hearing Elder Master Zhuang’s explanation, Zhuang Shurong, who knew what was going on, pursed her lips and wanted to laugh. However, she could only suppress her laughter when Elder Master Zhuang gave her a cold glance.

Mu Tangchuan, on the other hand, calmly poured tea for Elder Zhuang.

“Grandfather, you’ve been with Grandmother for so many years, but you still haven’t changed. You’ve been playing around like a child. It’s quite amazing that you’ve both lived your whole life like this.”

“Yes, not everyone has the same magnanimity as your grandfather. I don’t bicker with your grandmother, or else I wouldn’t have been able to live on. She’s not modest and unreasonable, even the worst soldiers I’ve ever led weren’t as unreasonable as her. If she wasn’t my own wife, I would have changed long ago.”

Elder Master Zhuang was not polite at all.

However, Zhuang Shurong knew very well in her heart that it was not as if Elder Master Zhuang did not have any feelings for her grandmother.

A few years ago, when she went back to the countryside for a holiday, Grandmother suffered from a high fever in the middle of the night. Grandfather must have carried her on his back for several kilometers on the mountain road and sent her to the health center anxiously. He even comforted Grandmother along the way. That tone, it was as if he was coaxing a little girl.

At that time, Zhuang Shurong realized that her grandfather had deep feelings for her grandmother. It was just that he had a harsh mouth and liked to say harsh words that were mean. Zhuang Shurong was quite helpless, but since they were used to it, as long as they were happy it was good enough.

“Good, good! Grandfather, Grandmother is willful and insensible, you just have to bear with her. You’re a Chief Officer, so you definitely won’t hold a grudge against her, right?”

“Yes, yes, I won’t argue with her, I’ll just bear with it.”

Then, Elder Master Zhuang finally eased up.

Perhaps it was because he was used to giving orders before, but Elder Master Zhuang insisted that he was right. He had to come up with a reason and make it clear before he would let it go.

In this regard, Zhuang Shurong was actually quite similar to him.

Dinner was quickly prepared. It was a very authentic home-cooked dish, complete with color, aroma, and taste. When it was brought to the table, Zhuang Shurong looked at it and felt hungry. She unceremoniously ate two bowls of rice. She usually had a small appetite, at this moment, Mu Tangchuan was a little surprised.

But to be honest, Elder Madam Zhuang’s cooking skills were amazing.

After dinner, the few of them surrounded the stove for a while. From time to time, the sound of firecrackers could be heard outside, and the air was filled with the smell of the New Year.

The few of them were in a good mood as they chatted about the new year. Of course, accompanying them were the bodyguards, Ah Wen, and the others.

The house was actually quite big. There were about eight or nine rooms of different sizes. Mu Tangchuan and Zhuang Shurong’s rooms were next to each other. Once they stepped out of the balcony, they could see the balcony next door.

Mu Tangchuan took a comfortable shower. When he heard the sound of fireworks outside, he responded and walked towards the balcony.

Sure enough, in the night sky outside the balcony, fireworks were piercing through the cold air and blooming in the wind and rain.

“The villagers are used to welcoming the new year in time after midnight on New Year’s Eve, so it’s almost time now. It will be very lively outside. There will be a continuous show in town tomorrow morning,it’s their favorite show. Also, they’ll be rushing the red packets for tomorrow morning’s visits. Right now, the children are all so excited that they can’t sleep.”

Mu Tangchuan had just stood by the guardrail when Zhuang Shurong’s voice came from behind him. Mu Tangchuan quickly turned his head and only then did he realize that Zhuang Shurong was already standing behind him with a bunch of red packets in her hands.

“Not asleep yet?” Mu Tangchuan asked when he saw that she had already changed into a soft, homely outfit.

“Not so soon, we have to do New Year visits later too. Here, these are sealed red packets. There will be people coming over for new year’s visits early in the morning tomorrow. When you see the children, give one to each of them, understand?”

As Zhuang Shurong spoke, she handed the thick stack of red packets in her hand to Mu Tangchuan.
