Chapter 1344: Chapter 1216: Isn’t Becoming a New Father-in-Law Exciting?

In the front yard, Zhang Guoqing saw his eldest son tossing a motorcycle key in his hand and was taken aback, "Silly boy, you’re not planning to pick up a girl and then go wild in the wind, are you?"

Ping’an looked at the key in his hand and smiled at him, "Dad, your bike, let me borrow it."

Zhang Guoqing pointed to Xiao Zhu nearby, "Borrow from your Pig Brother."

"Haha, Dad, don’t tease Brother Zhu."

"What’s the difference between Brother Zhu and Pig Brother?" Zhang Guoqing straightened his son’s clothes, while his two younger sons eagerly awaited his attention, but off they went.

These two rascals are all looking to eat the grass on the edge of the nest, and he doesn’t want to bother.

Especially Liu Yi, as if he didn’t see the kid’s stern face touching his dry daughter’s cheek, when he saw it he almost wanted to kick him twice for Da Yi!

It’s no wonder his iron buddies are really trustworthy! Their real daughter gets thrown in his home for days on end without any care. They must really believe in their friendship, the old pals?

Zhang Guoqing was secretly glad to have three sons. If he had three daughters, better to not marry them off, as they’d be devoured by pigs.

Sons are great, marrying a wife is like adding members to the family, a surefire profitable deal. Later, toss them over to their wives, and he can take his wife and wander around.

"Dad, I’m leaving."

"Go on, go on." Zhang Guoqing quickly waved his hand, "Bring her back early."

Watching the eldest leave, May 1st happily snuggled next to him, holding his shoulder, "Dad, are you excited to be a new father-in-law?"

"Stop with the nonsense, your big brother’s not there yet." Zhang Guoqing quickly responded, "What new and old father-in-law, you’re giving your dad trouble again?"

May 1st blinked innocently, "Isn’t that how you call it?"

Zhang Guoqing suspiciously glanced at his son’s expression, ruffled his hair, "You’re already as tall as your old man, huh, how fast you’ve grown."

May 1st leaned on his shoulder, shaking with stifled laughter, "You’re indeed old, Dad, what to do?"

How could Zhang Guoqing admit he was old? "How impudent! With your grandpa and grandpa here, your dad is a fine young man, and you are tender sprigs."

May 1st jokingly said, "That’s why you’ve always refused to get a secretary, and you don’t want more bodyguards? After all, my dad is still a young sprout."

"Get lost, annoying son!" Wherever he’s unhappy, he loves to hit, Zhang Guoqing expressed he didn’t love this son, better send him abroad soon.

"Oh no, you’re angry. Come on, your dear son will take you out to play. Our family’s pigeons have had many little babies, round and small."

"Needs a beating, teasing your old man early in the morning." Liu Yi kicked him, "Dad, your son will also take you to see the so-called little babies."

Dragged along by two sons, Zhang Guoqing couldn’t help but burst into laughter. What a bunch of nonsense, aren’t they just some pigeon eggs, calling them little babies?

In the backyard, Mr. Zhang walked with his hands behind his back, pacing around the vegetable garden. Originally, he wanted to weed it, but the retired soldiers maintaining the old house were too diligent.

Hearing movement, he looked up and initially thought it was his three grandsons walking arm in arm, wondering why Ping’an didn’t go pick up his partner. Turned out it was his old son, bursting into laughter.

Hadn’t seen the old man being so childish! But it’s true, his old son always had a connection with kids, it wasn’t just a fondness for a few nephews back then.

"Dad/Grandpa."

"What are you three father and sons up to?"

"The kids said the pigeons laid eggs, we’re going to take a look." Zhang Guoqing pointed to the back, sweeping a glance, "Dad, where are Brother Shitou and them, not accompanying you?"

Waking up early, their family exercised but also saw his dad taking the two brothers to the park behind, leaving Zhang Guoqing quite curious.

"There are people playing chess over there, I came back first."

Seeing Mr. Zhang all alone, Zhang Guoqing and his sons didn’t rush to see the pigeon eggs, sitting with him instead, "Grandpa, if you want to fish, ask Aunt Yuan for the fishing rod, she knows where it’s kept."

Hearing May 1st say this, Mr. Zhang nodded happily.

"Did you meet my tutor’s grandpa this morning? Recently, he’s been fishing at the park near that pergola close to his house."

"I haven’t gone that way. A few old pals were supposed to meet this afternoon, but I postponed. Tomorrow, tomorrow morning I’ll see your tutor’s grandpa."

"I’ll accompany you." May 1st remembered the bag of silver dollars and cash his parents showed them last night, his eyes swirling, "When the weather cools in the evening, I’ll take you and Grandma to the Friendship Store."

"We have everything at home, what’s the point? Save money, you three brothers will cost plenty. I’ve heard you can’t take much money abroad?"

May 1st’s eyes curved with laughter, "Grandpa, did you ask around? Your grandson will be fine, when there’s no money, he’ll just rip off those foreigners."

"Oh, my dear, this is no joke." Mr. Zhang was startled, "Out there, you can’t mess around, those foreigners are fierce."

"Hehe, Grandpa, I won’t mess around. Remember, I have an uncle abroad." May 1st winked at him, "I won’t starve, we’ve got money."

Mr. Zhang chuckled, shaking his head, "Cheeky boy! Being outside is not like home, stay at school if you can, don’t roam idly."

"Okay, I remember."

"Too bad our Liu Yi can’t go abroad with you, otherwise the two of you would be a good fit together." Mr. Zhang smiled at Liu Yi.

"Though Liu Yi is just a few minutes older than you, he’s much more stable. You should learn from him. If you’re wronged abroad, remember not to fight back stubbornly. Come back, we’ll find a way to get revenge."

"And what your grandpa says about that embassy thing, when you’re abroad, try to visit there a few times, they’re our people."

"Going out relies on friends. If you meet our fellow countrymen and see they lack food or drink, help them if you can. But if they’re fighting, stay out of it.

We’re there to study, don’t form gangs. When you’re outside, just blend in with classmates, don’t act special, some people are petty and like to watch others."

May 1st listened attentively, nodding now and then. This was wisdom from the elder’s lifetime, guiding him in dealings with others. Whether right or wrong, he deeply respected it.

Mr. Zhang saw the two grandsons attentive without complaining, so he happily spoke a bit more, naturally mentioning Little Jiu.

"And that girl called Little Jiu."

May 1st was surprised and sneaked a glance at him.

"Silly boy!" Mr. Zhang amusedly patted his grandson’s shoulder, "Grandpa, at this age, can still perceive a few things."

Liu Yi was intrigued, looking at his brother. See, you’re caught out? Anyone can see the issue! At most, I treat her like a sister, but you insist on calling her little niece!
