Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

“I have to thank you. In this situation, I can’t do anything. I can only rely on you in the future.

I have not set a good example for my child, nor can I provide him with good living and learning conditions. I don’t even know what I can do when I graduate from school!”

"Lao Xu, I think you shouldn't think too much about it for now. There will always be a way out when you reach the mountain. No one can predict what will happen in the future.

No one is perfect. You are a very good fireworks designer. Just think of this year or so as a period of retreat and practice.

As long as you have new ideas, there will be many fireworks companies vying for you to design them. We will also tell Zi Yan that his father is a very good designer. "

Han Tao's words finally brightened Xu Huanshan's eyes, so Gu Jia also encouraged him at the right time:

"Han Tao is right, as long as you have the determination, you can start over again, and Zi Yan will be proud of you.

And I promise you, when you get out, you can come to see Zi Yan anytime, and you can take him out to play on Saturdays and Sundays, you have to work hard. "

"Yes, I will. It's almost time. I'm hanging up!"

Xu Huanshan nodded, not knowing what to say. He knew that his fate with Gu Jia was completely over, and Gu Jia had done her the last bit of kindness for him.

………………

After coming out of the detention center, Han Tao and Gu Jia went to her father Gu Jinghong again. Because the old man didn't want to be a burden to his daughter, he planned to live in a nursing home.

However, at that time, Gu Jia and Xu Huanshan were getting divorced, and there were a lot of things going on at the tea factory, so this proposal was delayed.

When Gu Jia came back this time, Gu Jinghong called again to bring up this matter, so after dealing with Xu Huanshan's matter, she took Han Tao straight to her parents' home.

This time when she returns, she plans to have an in-depth talk with her father and find a solution that both parties can accept.

After all, as a daughter, Gu Jia doesn't want her father to live in a nursing home for any reason.

Along the way, she told Han Tao a lot of her ideas. Only by bringing her father to live with her could she feel at ease and allow her father to enjoy family happiness.

Han Tao naturally would not object. He had no objection whether living in a nursing home or in Grand Hyatt Residences.

If Gu Jinghong still insists on living in a nursing home, he will help arrange a high-end health care center with the best environment.

It would be even better if you are willing to go to Grand Hyatt Mansion, so you can look after Xu Ziyan together. Anyway, there are nannies to do the housework, and the elderly can enjoy family happiness without any fatigue when they go there.

The most important thing is that if Gu Jia's father moves in, then Xu Ziyan won't have to worry Zhong Xiaoqin so much, and she can focus on taking care of her pregnancy.

After all, Xu Ziyan is at an active age. No matter how obedient he is, it is still very tiring to take care of this little monkey.

After arriving at the place, the three of them chatted about family matters for a while. Gu Jia changed the subject and said seriously:

"Dad, I don't agree with you living in a nursing home. Either I hire a nanny for you, or you move in with me and Zi Yan. You choose one."

"If you can't hire a nanny, you suddenly get an aunt. We are alone in the same room. If this gets out, where will your father's reputation be?"

Gu Jia's father, Gu Jinghong, directly rejected the proposal to hire a nanny, and then showed an embarrassment on his face: "As for your place, I don't want to go either."

"Why? The place I live in is big enough. Wouldn't it be nice for you to live with us? You can see me and your grandson every day."

"It's not a question of whether it's big enough or not. As the saying goes, things smell good when they're far away, but they stink when they're close. The temperaments of my father and I don't suit us being too close.

Besides, I'd rather give up my current 100-square-meter house and live in someone else's house as a guest. How embarrassing! "

Hearing her father's words, Gu Jia felt a little frustrated. She hurriedly walked to her father and sat down, saying:

"Dad, I am your own daughter. How can you be considered a guest when you live in my house?"

Gu Jinghong knew that his daughter was worried about him, so he was silent for a moment and said, "It is because you are my biological daughter that I won't go. If you are really worried about me living alone, then agree to let me live in a nursing home.

Many old friends in this hospital have gone there, and I went to see it too. The conditions are very good. When the time comes, everyone will take care of each other, and you don’t have to worry about it. "

"What's good about that? No matter how good it is, having me around is no good. Anyway, I don't agree with you going to a nursing home..."

"No matter how good your home is, it's still your home. To be honest with you, I don't want to live under someone else's roof, and I don't want you to worry about me in the middle of the night.

Just listen to me this time. It's good to experience it while I'm still young. If it doesn't work, we can talk later!"

Although living in a nursing home was a helpless decision, Gu Jinghong had no choice but to refuse for the sake of his daughter. He felt that he had to do so in order not to burden his daughter.

Seeing the father and daughter arguing, I knew that the old man didn't want to cause trouble for his daughter, increase the burden on his children, and didn't want his daughter to worry every day, so he went to live in a nursing home.

But which elderly person doesn’t want to be closer to their children? Especially when they get old, they want to live with their children more. No matter how good a nursing home is, it is not the same as living with their own family.

So Han Tao, who had been silent, smiled and persuaded him, "Uncle, I understand your thoughts. You are worried that your past will disrupt her current life rhythm and you don't want to drag down us young people.

But you are wrong. Gu Jia is very busy with the company now and is often on business trips. Zi Yan is taken care of by a nanny. Even with Xiao Qin's help, it is impossible to take care of him all the time.

I guess she hasn't told you all this, so you didn't really enjoy yourself in the past, but you had to suffer in order to help take care of Zi Yan.

After all, without the elders around, it’s OK for a short period of time, but if I let a nanny take care of the child for a long time, I personally would not feel comfortable anyway.”

"Xiao Han, are you saying that Xiao Chen has been taking care of Zi Yan all this time?"

Gu Jinghong looked at Han Tao, and after seeing him nod, he angrily scolded Gu Jia: "Jia Jia, why didn't you tell me when you called me before? This is nonsense!

Ziyan is so young, how can you trust him to be taken care of by a nanny? Even if I am useless, I can still take care of my grandson."

"Uncle is right, I think so too. Nowadays, society is stressful and young people are busy with their careers. They really need the help of their elders in handling some daily affairs.

Although the nanny can do the shopping and cooking, but no one is more reliable than you, the grandfather, to take care of Ziyan."

"I like what Xiao Han said. We work so hard, but all we have to live for is a child!"

Gu Jinghong nodded in agreement. He had a good impression of Han Tao and his attitude softened. He looked at Gu Jia and sighed:

“Alas, actually I don’t mean to make you anxious. I have lived for more than 60 years and have never caused any trouble to others. I don’t want to be a burden to my daughter when I am old.

But if you need dad to go over and help look after Zi Yan, then I'll go over and live there for a while, and when you're not busy, we can discuss what to do next."

"That's right, just like my uncle said before, it's good to experience everything.

You can try moving there first. If you feel uncomfortable or it’s too tiring to take care of the children, it won’t be too late to go to a nursing home.”

"There's nothing to get used to. I don't have to do laundry or cooking. At most, I just have to play with Zi Yan and take him to school. How can it be that tiring?"

"Dad, then you pack up today and see what you need to bring. I'll pick you up tomorrow!"

Gu Jia felt relieved by her father's satisfied expression and changed attitude.

Although what Han Tao said was different from his original idea, the purpose was the same, and both solved the biggest problem.

She secretly hoped that her father could spend his later years in peace, so that he could enjoy family happiness and let herself put down some psychological burdens.

………………

Chapter 829: The End of Thirty

After returning home from her father's place, Gu Jia asked Han Tao to go and have a rest, and she went into the kitchen to busy herself.

Although there is a nanny at home, Gu Jia will cook by herself as long as she has time. This is a rule she sets for herself.

Han Tao could probably guess what the reason was. Gu Jia wanted to be a good wife and mother, and insisted on her style of being able to handle both housework and housework, so as to win his heart.

This is actually understandable. After all, there must be a main and a secondary role among the three. Gu Jia does have advantages over Wang Manni and Zhong Xiaoqin, and she will also use her advantages.

In life, she is a very sharp and careful person. She not only has the ability to see through subtle things, but also has good emotional intelligence.

At work, Gu Jia also has strong negotiation and management skills. She can not only be a good wife, but also help the company handle business. She is the best asset manager among the three of them.

Although Wang Manni performs well at work and has the strongest pioneering ability among the three, due to her grassroots background and lack of clear career planning, her future development will be limited to a certain extent if she does not have a leader.

Zhong Xiaoqin is completely different. Due to family reasons, her attitude towards work is really indifferent. She just wants to get by.

In life, she is even more Buddhist and never cares about so many things. After all, she is a native of Shanghai and her parents dote on her. She is like a child who never grows up and is quite naive.

In general, Wang Manni and Gu Jia are both career-oriented and ambitious people, but one has strong comprehensive abilities and is suitable to be a leader, while the other is good at fighting and is suitable for pioneering and enterprising.

Zhong Xiaoqin is a very good lubricant. She never fights or competes. She can neutralize the relationship among the three people and take care of the family to the best of her ability. Otherwise, the career-oriented family will break up.

After thinking for a while and looking at her busy figure, Han Tao stood up and walked into the kitchen. He hugged Gu Jia from behind and whispered gently in her ear.

Gu Jia blushed, and then she felt his dishonest hands and scolded him, "Don't touch me, I'm busy, go sit aside."

"You do your thing, I'll keep you company!" Han Tao smiled evilly, his hands moving slowly upward from the lower abdomen without stopping...

"Stop making trouble. Ziyan and Xiaoqin will be back soon. Don't..."

"Manny is coming back for dinner today, come on...mmmm..."

Gu Jia hadn't even finished cooking the meal yet, but she had already eaten it all. In the end, Zhong Xiaoqin couldn't get through on the phone, so she asked her mother who came back from shopping to knock on the door. Only then did she have the chance to run across the street to help.

Zhong's mother moved in two days ago. The whole family is very concerned about Zhong Xiaoqin's pregnancy this time. Although she said that there is no need to be so exaggerated, she is very cautious in her heart.

In the past, even though she became a vice president, she still liked to go to the grassroots level and liked that kind of working atmosphere.

But now Zhong Xiaoqin would not do that, because she has realized that her health should be the most important thing in everything.

Although Zhong's mother was still a little upset that her daughter was pregnant but Han Tao had not obtained a marriage certificate, she brought up this matter several times in the past few days.

But she could not resist her daughter Zhong Xiaoqin's nagging. After all, she was just an ordinary mother. Seeing her daughter happy, she stopped insisting and gradually became happy too.

However, Han Tao also took her feelings into consideration, and so did Gu Jia and Wang Manni. It seemed as if they had reached a tacit understanding that as long as they returned to Grand Hyatt Residence, the three of them would not get together except for dinner.

In order to take care of the feelings of Mr. and Mrs. Zhong, Han Tao also asked them to invite their relatives and friends together. They had a meal in a five-star hotel and announced to the public that they were going to travel and get married, which showed their attitude.

The relatives and friends who came also knew that Zhong Xiaoqin had divorced Chen Yu and now had a new boyfriend. Even though there was no wedding, no one said anything and they all sent their blessings.

In comparison, Gu Jia does not have this worry. What he cares about most are his son Xu Ziyan and his old father. There are basically no close relatives at home, so he does not have to worry about the worldly gaze.

The happiest person is Wang Manni. She has never been married and had experienced a sudden fainting before. So after her parents knew that she had a boyfriend, they always wanted her to get married early.

Han Tao also promised to give Wang Manni a wedding, so after Gu Jia and Zhong Xiaoqin's affairs were settled, Han Tao specially accompanied her to her hometown in Quzhou.

This is a busy town. When the neighbors saw her coming back with her boyfriend, they greeted her warmly and were all very surprised.

After all, Wang Manni is already 30 years old, and is considered an old girl in her hometown. Some of her classmates and friends of the same age have children in elementary school, but she is the only one who has not married and has never brought a boyfriend home.

Wang Manni's parents were also very happy when they saw their daughter coming back with such an outstanding boy.

After seeing Han Tao, he was even more affectionate than when he saw his own daughter, allowing Han Tao to experience the treatment of a new son-in-law.

When they heard that their daughter and her boyfriend came back and said they were planning a wedding, they were even happier.

Although it was a bit hasty and unexpected, it was not easy for their daughter to find a suitable person, so the old couple didn't say anything.

In today's society, it's not uncommon for couples to get married after knowing each other for just one or two days. Han Tao was able to take care of their daughter when she was sick and bought such a nice house in Shanghai. There was nothing they couldn't accept.

However, this wedding was not held in a five-star hotel. Instead, a more humane approach was chosen, with a buffet banquet held in the town for three full days. The Wang family had both substance and face.

.....................

In the dim light of morning light, the ancient town seems to wake up from a deep sleep, and the quietly flowing river reflects the peaceful morning, like a tranquil and beautiful painting.

After Wang Manni woke up, she saw Han Tao lying beside her and couldn't help but reveal an incomparable smile of happiness.

In the past, she might have been a little unwilling, but after this trip back home, she felt completely clear-headed.

However, when she thought about the existence of Miss Zhu besides herself and her two best friends, she couldn't help but sigh.

"Oh, it would be great if you were a loyal person!"

Just when she was stunned, Han Tao woke up, reached out and touched her face, and said gently:

"You woke up so early, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

"You suddenly became quiet and couldn't fall asleep. When did you wake up?"

Wang Manni looked at Han Tao nervously, and couldn't help muttering to herself, wondering if he heard what she had just said.

Han Tao smiled slightly, took the other person into his arms, and said jokingly: "I just woke up and heard someone complaining. What do you think I should do to make her feel at ease?"

Hearing this, Wang Manni blushed and quickly changed the subject: "We have been back for a week. There must be a lot of things in the Magic City that you need to go back to deal with. Why don't you go back today?"

"Well, we do have to go back. Have you told your uncle and aunt about what we discussed before? What did they say?"

"If my parents don't want to go to Shanghai, they are used to living here, and their relatives, friends, and colleagues are all here. They will not be able to adapt if they suddenly go there."

"That's fine. We should respect their ideas. When we have the opportunity in the future, or when we have figured it out in a few years, we can take them over."

Han Tao nodded without saying anything. The two got up, washed, and had breakfast together.

During this time, I explained the situation to the two elderly people, then said goodbye to them and embarked on the journey back to the Magic City.

Before leaving, Wang Manni's parents said that they didn't need to worry about them, and that they would go over to help take care of their grandson when their daughter Wang Manni became pregnant.

After getting the reply from her parents, Wang Manni was naturally the happiest and was in a good mood all the way.

Of course, they are all his women, so Han Tao does not favor one over the other. Since he said that he and Zhong Xiaoqin would get married during a travel, he must do it.

So as soon as this was over, he arranged to go out and play, but considering that Zhong Xiaoqin was not suitable for long-distance travel, and she insisted on asking Gu Jia to go along, in the end they discussed and decided to go to the tea factory.

The mountain village where the tea factory is located is pristine and has a great environment, making it a great place to relax occasionally.
