Chapter 216 Lazy Daughter-in-law - Life in Kyoto
Fan Qitian rented a two-bedroom apartment, after all, it was too expensive to rent a three-bedroom apartment in this area.
Because he had just started working, Fan Qitian did not go to the train station to pick anyone up, and he was relieved that his younger brother was with his grandmother.
Fan Qitian sent his home address to his younger brother and called for express delivery in advance, so that the house keys would be delivered at the same time when his grandmother arrived at the community.
Zhou Leng and Fan Qiheng waited at the door of the apartment building for about ten minutes, and the delivery man handed the keys to them.
The grandparents and grandchildren walked into the rental house. It had an old-fashioned layout, a large bedroom and a small living room. There was a single bed and a desk in the corner of the living room.
The conditions here are much worse than at home.
After Fan Qiheng put away his luggage, he said:
"My brother said he would live in the living room, grandma would live in the big bedroom, and I would live in the small bedroom. I thought I would live in the school dormitory, so I wouldn't be separated from my classmates, and there would be a better learning atmosphere. My brother would be able to accompany grandma when he got home from get off work every day. I would come back on Saturdays and Sundays to take grandma for a walk."
Zhou Leng stretched comfortably, then walked into the large bedroom and looked at the sheets and thin quilt that had been laid out. She replied:
"That's fine. It saves you two from bothering me. I guess the packages will be delivered to my door in a couple of days. I can decorate it and it will look like home."
Fan Qiheng stood at the door of the master bedroom and invited:
"Grandma, why don't you follow me to school? You can accompany me and apply for this from the school."
Zhou Leng looked back at her grandson's worried expression and said with a smile:
"Child, you think too much. Grandma is the one who can endure loneliness the most. Besides, she has worked hard all her life and now she is going to enjoy her life. Can't I live on if your grandfather dies? You guys study hard, and I will naturally have my own way of living."
Fan Qiheng looked at his grandmother, who had a head full of white hair but was full of energy, and he laughed from the bottom of his heart.
That night.
When Fan Qitian returned home, the familiar aroma of food was waiting for him. After he changed his shoes, he rushed over and hugged his grandmother's shoulders and said:
"Grandma, that's great. Just wait and enjoy your life. Your eldest grandson can make money now."
Zhou Leng shook his shoulders and said, "That's so corny. Come on, take the bowl and eat."
Half a month after the family of three moved to Kyoto, Fan Chao went to visit his mother. He saw a stranger opening the door and heard from the other party that the house had been sold. He went to the delicatessen again and learned that the owner had changed. Then he called his mother.
At this time, Zhou Leng was dancing square dance with the old men and women in the community. In just half a month, she had penetrated the community and also set up a senior fitness group, of which she was the group leader.
Zhou Leng raised her hand to signal the people around her that she would go to the side to answer the phone. She walked to a sightseeing chair not far away and sat down, then took out her mobile phone and answered the call.
Fan Chao's anxious voice came into my ears:
"Mom! Where did you go? How come you sold the house and the delicatessen? How come I didn't know anything?"
Zhou Leng replied:
"I'm worried about Qiheng going to Kyoto to study, so I have to follow him. Besides, the expenses in Kyoto are so high, don't I have to prepare more? The house and the delicatessen were earned by your father and I through hard work, what do you care what I do with them?"
Fan Chao took a deep breath and said:
"Mom, I really didn't mean that. Now I have opened my own express delivery outlet and my income is considerable. I'm not thinking about the money from you and my dad. It's just that you suddenly disappeared. Isn't that why I'm worried? Where did you go? What did you do? You have to give me some news!"
Zhou Leng didn't care whether he was sincere or not, whether he had known the preciousness of family affection after more than ten years, or whether he felt that he had to maintain the relationship with his two sons now that they were successful, no matter what the reason was, she just wanted to maintain the only beauty on the surface. She changed her attitude and said softly:
"I'm overthinking. As people get older, it's inevitable that they think more. After all, you haven't been very filial to me over the years. Now that you're suddenly concerned about my well-being, it's inevitable that people will think you're after money."
Fan Chao was a little overwhelmed by the other party's frankness. His purpose was not as filial as he said. It was because Ji Lerong saw that Fan Datian had died and was afraid that all her mother-in-law's money would be given to her two grandsons in the future, so she asked Fan Chao to keep in touch with them.
Fan Chao felt very guilty, so he changed the subject and said:
"We didn't do anything when Qitian was going to school, but now Qiheng has been admitted to Peking University or Tsinghua University, and my dad didn't hold a graduation banquet. My classmates and friends all say how well these two children have been educated. This is all thanks to mom and dad. Thank you, mom."
Zhou Leng replied calmly:
"Well, you're welcome. I'm not doing this for your sake, I'm doing this for my two grandsons' sake. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Leng continued dancing with his old friends, only Fan Chao looked at his phone for a long time without saying a word.
If a broken mirror can be mended, how should we deal with the moment when it was broken? Should we delete ourselves or exile ourselves?
Zhou Leng's career flourished in his later years.
The elderly market includes not only nursing homes, but also elderly travel groups and the promotion of health care products. In order to quickly penetrate these elderly groups, Zhou Leng used his fortune-telling skills.
Two months later.
The two brothers Fan Qitian saw that their grandmother had become close friends with the elderly people here in such a short period of time.
People often come to chat and give me fruit every day. On Saturdays and Sundays, I am even busier than young people who are working or studying.
Fan Qitian once suspected that his grandmother had been brainwashed and joined a fraudulent pyramid scheme organization.
On the sofa, an old lady excitedly held Zhou Leng's hand and said:
"Master Yan, is that true? Then I will bring the birth dates of both children to you tomorrow. Marriage is the most important thing. If the birth dates are not compatible, that will not be good."
Zhou Leng patted her hand comfortingly and said:
"You don't have to worry. Just bring the horoscope tomorrow. Nothing is absolute. If there is something wrong, I can turn it into a blessing."
The man held Zhou Leng's hand tightly with excitement and gratitude.
It was not until that person left with an excited look on his face that Fan Qitian opened the door completely. He only showed his head and looked at the person standing at the door and said:
"Grandma, what's going on? How long have you been in Kyoto? Why do people always come to our house? Have you been deceived into joining a pyramid scheme?"
Zhou Leng glared at her eldest grandson. His appearance at this moment was strangely the same as when he was a child eavesdropping on his parents. She couldn't help but curse:
"You're the one being fooled. These are all members of our dance team. I don't care what you two do next week. I'm going on a trip to Thailand with my sisters."
Fan Qitian frowned slightly and said:
"You've only been back for a week. You just came back from Hong Kong and you're going to Thailand again. I'm not afraid of you spending money. You'll be 80 soon, so you should take it easy."
Zhou Leng walked up to Da Sun, hit him hard on the back and said:
"What do you know? This is a project I cooperated with a travel agency. I recommend people to travel for them and I earn commissions. This is my first time to Thailand, so I want to experience it myself. I'm going to Thailand for a week, and your aunt and her husband are coming. I had a great time in Hong Kong last time, and I shared it with the group. Many people went there, and I made a lot of money."
Fan Qitian was stunned. He realized that his grandmother went out to travel with others to make money! He couldn't help but give her a thumbs up in admiration.
