Iron Kui Extra (158)

This year, Ning Hai was seventy years old.

Seventy is rare in life, Ning Zhan wanted to hold a 70th birthday banquet for him, but Ning Hai disagreed.

Ning Hai said: "You see, the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager never hold birthday parties, what should I do?" Neither the Supreme Emperor nor the Empress Dowager held their 60th birthday parties, so he made a fuss about it.

Ning Zhan said: "Father, we don't have much to do, so let's invite our close relatives and friends to dinner."

Xiao Shi also felt that the birthday banquet should be held. Seeing that Ning Hai disagreed, she said: "If you hold a birthday banquet, Ruyi and Ruhui will come back. At that time, the whole family can also be reunited." After Ruyi and Ruhui were released She has never been back to Beijing, which makes her worry about it.

Ning Hai hesitated.

Xiao Shi has been with Ning Hai and his wife for so many years, so he knows his weakness. Seeing that he was loose, he continued to work hard: "Master Hou, we haven't seen the second sister and the second brother-in-law for five years. I just took this opportunity to invite the second sister and the second brother-in-law."

Ning Hai still couldn't make up his mind, and only said to let him think about it.

Ning Yuanhang and Brother Zhuang knew about this, and they both persuaded him to hold a birthday banquet: "Grandfather, our family hasn't had a happy event for a long time. Hold a birthday banquet and let everyone get together and have fun."

Under the persuasion of the whole family, Ning Hai agreed to hold a birthday banquet. However, there is a request that this birthday banquet cannot be held on a large scale, only close relatives and close friends are invited. Moreover, it must be controlled within twenty tables.

Ning Zhan readily agreed to these requests.

After Qiyou found out, he said to Ning Zhan, "Uncle is still easy to coax, unlike my parents, who can't make any sense." The siblings took turns to fight, and they didn't let their parents let go of celebrating their 60th birthday.

Ning Zhan said with a smile: "I don't have this ability, my mother persuaded him. Don't be discouraged, wait until the emperor's 70th birthday, and then we will have a big one."

Qiyou shook his head and said: "They said that the 70th birthday party will not be held, and we will hold it when we are 80 years old." Eighty years old is so far away!

In this regard, Ning Zhan was helpless.

Seeing that Ning Hai was going to write a letter to Fang Hui, Mrs. Xiao said disapprovingly, "Let Ah Zhan write it." As he grew older, his eyesight became worse and worse, and writing letters was also a laborious task for Ning Hai. thing.

Ning Hai said: "I told him not to bring Mrs. Tang and a few children to Beijing, so as not to make Brother Zhuang feel uncomfortable when he sees it." It is not appropriate for Ah Zhan to write about this matter.

Xiao thought for a while and said, "Don't involve the children in the adult's business.

Just don't let Tang Shi come. As for whether to bring the child, it's up to Fang Hui. "It's not fair to exclude a few children.

Ning Hai thought for a while, put down his brush and said, "I should ask Ah Zhuang about this first!"

Brother Zhuang was very moved and said, "Grandfather, Dad can bring whoever he wants, I have no objection."

Since a birthday banquet is to be held, it is natural to make preparations early. First, they sent someone to send a letter to Sister Ruhui, and then sent someone to Anshan to pick up Chunni when she came to Beijing. Finally, post to in-laws, close friends, and friends.

When Ruhui and Ruyi received the letter, they began to arrange the matter at hand without saying a word. Dad's 70th birthday, how can a daughter not come back to participate.

As soon as things were arranged, the two sisters set off for Beijing with a few children. It was also because Peng Kangshun and Meng Ranxi couldn't leave, otherwise he would have to go back to Beijing to celebrate his father-in-law's birthday.

After receiving Ning Hai's letter, Fang Hui didn't dare to tell Tang about it, for fear that she would be sad if she found out.

Seeing that Fang Hui did nothing, Tang asked, "Husband, when are we going back to Beijing?" The old man's 70th birthday, as the eldest son, Ning Hai must be returning to Beijing to celebrate his birthday.

Fang Hui hesitated to speak.

Seeing him like this, Mrs. Tang had a bad feeling in her heart: "Husband, what's the matter? Could it be that the old man won't let you go back to Beijing to celebrate your birthday?" If so, this matter will be difficult.

But after thinking about it, the husband is the old man's own son after all, so he shouldn't be so embarrassed.

Fang Hui said softly: "Xuezhen, it's too far away from the capital. Brother Wen is not in good health. I'm afraid he won't be able to bear the long-distance travel. Xuezhen, you don't want to go back to Beijing this time." The youngest child in the world was a little weak when he was born. But now, it's about the same as other children of the same age.

Thinking of Fang Hui's anomalies in the past few days, Tang's complexion turned pale instantly: "Master Hou won't let me go back to Beijing to celebrate her birthday?" This means that Master Hou doesn't recognize her as his daughter-in-law anymore.

Fang Hui wanted to say no, but he couldn't get it out of his mouth. You can't hide this matter.

Tang was very uncomfortable, but soon she calmed down: "Did Hou Ye tell you to bring Hegeer and Qianqian back to Beijing?" Not so much, even the children are not allowed to take it!

Fang Hui said: "Father just said that he won't let you go back to Beijing, he didn't mention brother and Qianqian."

Qianqian knew that Tang Shi wanted to stay, and she didn't want to go to the capital, she said she wanted to stay with Tang Shi.

Tang was very pleased to see the child so caring, but she didn't follow Sissy: "Mother has to take care of brother Wen. Wait for next time, next time mother will come to Beijing with you." Can't break the relationship.

On the way to the capital, the father and son met Niuniu who also went to the capital to celebrate Ning Hai's birthday.

After Brother Zhuang returned to Beijing with Ma's coffin, Niuniu originally wanted to sever her relationship with the Ning family. However, her decision was not supported by Liu Genquan.

Fang Hui bought such a generous dowry for Niu Niu, but after one year of marriage he had to sever ties with his biological father. Outsiders knew that Niu Niu must be called unfilial. However, he didn't force Niuniu to bow down to Fang Hui and admit his mistakes, he just said that he should take into account the whole situation and be criticized separately.

In the end, Niuniu listened to his advice. Every year and holidays, the steward would give gifts, but she didn't want to go to Ning's house. On the second day of the first lunar month, she didn't pretend to be sick, and asked Liu Genquan to visit the New Year alone.

Although she didn't like it, but thinking about what Liu Genquan said, she still called Fang Hui Dad, and then said to the child: "Da Lang, this is your grandfather, call someone quickly."

After Dalang called his grandfather, he shrank back into Niuniu's arms. this

Fang Hui said: "You said you are true, since you are going to the capital, why didn't you tell me. If we go together, I can take care of you and Dalang."

After receiving a letter from Brother Zhuang, Niuniu decides to go to the capital together to celebrate Ning Hai's birthday. But I didn't expect that something happened in the army and I couldn't ask for leave. So, in the end, Niu Niu brought Da Lang to Beijing alone.

Niu Niu said flatly: "Now the world is peaceful and the road is safe." Besides, she brought four servants along with her.

But since we met, we naturally have to leave together. Even though Niuniu was not happy in her heart, she finally compromised.

Naturally, walking slowly with the child, Fang Hui and his party were the last to arrive.

Hearing Fang Hui's return, Ning Hai put down his bowl and chopsticks and asked, "Who else is there besides the uncle?"

The concierge who was talking back and forth said: "The eldest girl and Young Master Sun, the fourth young master and the third girl are also here."

Ning Hai said to the maid beside him: "Take them to wash up first." After speaking, he picked up his chopsticks to eat again.

While the Ning family was taking a bath, they asked Fang Hui, "Father, does grandpa dislike me and sister?" Normally, they should visit the elders first, and then go to wash and change clothes.

Fang Hui touched his head and said, "Don't think about it, your grandfather likes children the most. Brother and brother, you are so smart, your grandfather will definitely like you very much when he sees you."

Ning Jiahe expressed doubts.

After the father and son washed up, they followed the maid to the main courtyard. At this time, Ning Hai also finished his meal.

Looking at the three kneeling on the ground, Ning Hai looked a little better: "It's good to be back. It's cold on the ground, get up with the child!"

After getting up, Fang Hui didn't see Brother Zhuang: "Father, where is Ah Zhuang?"

Ning Hai said: "Ah Zhuang heard that Niuniu and Dalang were coming, so he ran to see them. You can see him later."

At this time, Ning Hai would take a nap. After saying a few words, Ning Hai let out a sigh of relief: "You must be tired after driving for such a long time. Go down and have some food and rest. If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it later."

Seeing Ning Hai's sleepy face, Fang Hui didn't say much, and took the two children down.

Fang Hui lived in the front yard with Ning Yuan and the two of them, and it was not suitable for Ning Qian to live in the front yard as a girl. Therefore, Zeng Chenfu arranged for her to live in the backyard.

When they arrived at the courtyard where they lived, Ning Yuanhe said when there were no outsiders: "Father, grandpa doesn't like me and my sister." This is not a question, but an affirmation.

From entering the house to coming out, Ning Hai didn't say a word to the siblings during the whole process.

Fang Hui said: "Your grandfather is just more serious, it's not that he doesn't like you."

Ning Yuanhe didn't argue with Fang Hui, thinking in his heart that if he didn't like it, he wouldn't like it, anyway, he didn't care too much.

Soon, a woman brought food over.

The food was cooked exquisitely, even Ning Yuanhe, who was upset, ate two bowls of rice.

As soon as the bowls and chopsticks were put down, Brother Zhuang came over.

But after not seeing him for more than a year, Fang Hui found that brother Zhuang had grown a lot taller.

"Father..." Brother Zhuang wouldn't have wanted to see Fang Hui if he wasn't afraid of being accused of being unfilial.

Brother Zhuang used to be very excited when he saw him, and there was admiration in his eyes when talking to him. But this time, brother Zhuang's expression is calm, and the eyes looking at him are also very calm.

Ever since Brother Zhuang Fu Ling returned to the capital, he has not written to him again. You know, in the past, Brother Zhuang would write him a letter every month. He knew that Ma's matter made his son complain about him.

Fang Hui's heart was in a panic, and he said after a long time: "Ah Zhuang, how are you doing this time?"

"Very good." Not only his grandfather and grandmother treated him very well, but also Ning Zhan and Zeng Chenfu treated him like a parent. But these words, he will never tell Fang Hui again.

Before Fang Hui came, he wanted to have a good talk with Brother Zhuang, but seeing Brother Zhuang like this, he didn't know what to say.

Ning Yuanhe suddenly said, "Brother, you haven't even sent a letter for more than a year. Dad is very worried about you."

Brother Zhuang said: "I'm fine here, Dad don't have to worry about me. Dad, you must be tired after driving for such a long time, take a good rest!"

These words are both unfamiliar and polite. Fang Hui's heart felt as if there was a stone on it, heavy.

Ning Yuanhang was waiting outside the yard. Seeing Brother Zhuang's appearance, he asked, "Brother, are you alright?"

Hearing the words of concern, Brother Zhuang's mood immediately improved, and he said with a smile: "Second brother, I'm fine."

ps: Good night everyone.
