Chapter 3086

~4 min read 719 words

Coming out of Premier Nan's office, Su Xinghui went to Yu's house again. Having not returned to the capital for so long, Su Xinghui also had to visit Yu Lao. This is a thing he must do every time he returns to the capital.

Yu Lao and his wife are both at home. They are sitting in the hall roasting fire. In fact, there is heating in the room, but they are still used to roasting fire. This is a habit they brought from General County since they were young. They feel that winter is warm only when roasting fire.

Therefore, Yu Lao's personal staff found them the best white charcoal, which is charcoal burned from green oak trees. It burns without any smoke. The fire in the fire basin is burning vigorously, making the whole hall warm as spring.

Su Xinghui came, which made Yu Lao very happy. He pointed to a small chair and said, "Xinghui, sit down quickly, sit on this chair and roast fire."

This kind of small chair is lower than ordinary chairs. Such a chair is the most comfortable to sit on and roast fire. Su Xinghui is also used to roasting fire, so he sat on that chair, sitting next to Yu Lao.

As soon as Su Xinghui sat down, Grandma Yu said, "It's quite cold outside, right? Roast quickly, this child, his hands are frozen."

Su Xinghui stretched his hands over the fire basin to roast. Today, the capital also had heavy snow, and it was indeed quite cold outside. Just a short distance from Yu Lao's door through the courtyard to Yu Lao's hall was cold enough, but it was still far from the degree of frozen hands.

Of course, Grandma Yu regarded Su Xinghui as her junior, so she felt sorry for Su Xinghui. Su Xinghui naturally could not refuse her kindness.

Su Xinghui asked, "Grandpa, Grandma, are you both okay?"

Yu Lao said, "Our health is quite good. Why didn't that little trick in your family come today? I miss him quite a bit."

What Yu Lao said was naturally Niuniu. Niuniu often came to visit Yu Lao and his wife with Lu Xiaoya. He was very cute and could make Yu Lao and his wife happy every time, so Yu Lao missed him quite a bit because he hadn't come for a few days.

Su Xinghui said, "Today his mother took him to learn wrestling, so he didn't come. When he has time, his mother will take him to visit you two."

Yu Lao nodded and said, "It's good for children to learn wrestling, to strengthen their bodies, and not to suffer losses when fighting."

Grandma Yu scolded, "You only know about fighting. Now it's not your time. What kind of fight do children fight?"

Yu Lao said, "What's wrong with our time? If we didn't like fighting, could we fight out a new China? I think we still need to have a martial spirit now, otherwise everyone will be like a woman, then what hope does the country have?"

Grandma Yu was furious and said, "Who are you talking about as a woman? Didn't I fight in the war back then? What's wrong with being a woman? The leader also said that women can hold up half the sky. Your kind of thinking is backward."

When Grandma Yu got angry, Yu Lao wilted. He muttered, "A good man doesn't fight with a woman, I won't talk to you."

Su Xinghui found it funny, and he hurriedly persuaded, "Grandpa, Grandma, don't argue."

Grandma Yu's anger had not yet subsided. She said, "Xinghui, you judge, does your grandpa look down on women comrades? His kind of thinking is wrong."

Su Xinghui said, "Grandma, Grandpa didn't mean it. Isn't he very respectful to you? He meant to let Niuniu learn some skills, strengthen his body, and also protect himself, so as not to be bullied by others. Grandpa, are you right?"

Yu Lao hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes, that's what I meant. If Xinghui's child is bullied by others, isn't that our joke?"

Grandma Yu said, "This makes sense. Xinghui's child, no matter what, we can't let him be bullied by others. It's good to learn some wrestling skills, but, Xinghui, you must teach him not to bully others."
