Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 357
The arrival of Chen Ruiqing and his wife did catch Zhang Shuzhen and others off guard at first.

Later, the conversation started, everyone relaxed, and the atmosphere gradually improved.Everyone was chatting and laughing, it was quite lively.

After lunch, Zhang Shuzhen spread a tablecloth on the kang, and then placed many things on the tablecloth, such as books, pens, scales, money, spoons, rulers, etc.

Today is Sheng Xinhua's first birthday. Even if there is no banquet and no fanfare, I still want to celebrate it.

"Auntie, what are you doing?" Chen Ruiqing and his wife looked at it and were a little confused. They didn't know what Zhang Shuzhen was going to do.

"Oh, what a coincidence for you, today is Xinhua's birthday.

Alas, we are not allowed to pay attention to these things now, so there is nothing at home. I thought, simply let the children catch it for a week. "

Logically speaking, Sheng Xinhua should be asked to catch Zhou before lunch.

Wasn't this delayed just because Chen Ruiqing and his wife were here?That’s why I put it after lunch.

"Hey, Auntie, you see, we don't know what happened."

When Chen Ruiqing heard this, he regretted it. If he had known that today was the grandson of the Sheng family, they would have brought some gifts.

When I came in the morning, I brought some snacks, cans, etc., but there were too few things.

"Ahem, what's this? It's just a little kid's birthday." Sheng Xiping smiled nonchalantly on the other end.

"Who cares about these things nowadays? It's just fine, just playing with the children."

As he spoke, Sheng Xiping took his son over and placed him on the tablecloth.

"Son, look at these things and grab whatever you like."

Sheng Xinhua was playing with Chen Feng when he was suddenly carried on the tablecloth. He saw so many things that he couldn't usually play with, and he suddenly became happy.

Take a look at this one, which is very good, and take a look at that one, which is also very interesting. I look left and right, and I don’t know which one is better to pick up.

Wandering around for a while, eh?There is something good.

Sheng Xinhua's eyes lit up, and he crawled towards the wooden gun in front of him, then grabbed it and played with it in his hand.

"Whose gun is this? Why did you put this thing on it?"

Zhang Shuzhen was stunned for a moment. When she put things on the tablecloth just now, she didn't put the gun on it.

"This is Xiaofeng's wooden gun. I put it in just now when you weren't paying attention."

Over there, Sheng Xitai scratched his head and whispered.

He just felt that there were too few things, so he randomly found a few things and put them in.

Zhang Shuzhen took a closer look and found that there were several more things in the book.

When Sheng Xiping had nothing to do, he got some toys for Chen Feng and Sheng Xitai, such as wooden knives and wooden guns.

In front of Chen Ruiqing and his wife, Zhang Shuzhen couldn't help but glare at her youngest son.

At this moment, Sheng Xinhua also held the wooden knife in his hand.

Good guy, these swords and pistols make the little guy look so beautiful, he grins with joy.

As for boys, some don’t like guns and knives, that’s their nature.

"Hey, Auntie, your grandson is amazing. Isn't he a good soldier in the future?" Chen Ruiqing took a look and said hurriedly.

Zhuzhou is just a good omen and auspicious.

For ordinary people these days, being a soldier is a good way out. If you can stay in the army and develop slowly, your future will be good.

Even if you have been retired from the army for a few years and are from the forestry industry, you can still find a job when you come back, which is much better than being an educated youth going to the mountains and countryside.

So when Chen Ruiqing said this, Zhang Shuzhen immediately became happy, "Oh, that's great. If Xinhua can really serve as a soldier and stay in the army in the future, it will be like smoke rising from the ancestral graves of the old Sheng family."

The Sheng family has been farming for generations, and no capable person has ever emerged.

Until Sheng Liancheng's generation, Sheng Liancheng came to the Northeast to recruit workers and became workers. He sent back more than half of his salary every month to support his fourth and fifth sons in school.

Later, they both went to college and got married, and they were the best among the brothers.

In Sheng Xiping's generation, several members of the big family at the other end of the hometown are still working in the fields. One of the three-bedroom family members has hired a laborer. The children of the four- and five-bedroom family members are still young. They live in the city, so it is estimated that they will not be in trouble in the future. .

After all, no one in the Lao Sheng family is a soldier.

In this day and age, being a soldier is a very honorable thing, as it brings glory to one's ancestors.If Sheng Xinhua can really join the army when he grows up, it will be the first job in Lao Sheng's family.

"That's not necessarily true. Maybe Xinhua will be like my elder brother and love hunting in the future."

Just when Zhang Shuzhen was filled with joy, Sheng Xitai beside her said this unhurriedly.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was stunned.

Everyone looked at Sheng Xiping, and then at Sheng Xinhua who couldn't put it down holding swords and guns. Yes, you don't have to be a soldier to play with swords and guns, don't hunters use them too?

When Zhang Shuzhen heard this, she reached out angrily and slapped her youngest son.

"You damn kid, I'm not like you. You're not done yet, are you? If you can speak, just speak. If you can't speak, just keep your mouth shut."

It makes people mad. They always say nice things about Zhuzhou. Regardless of whether it can be realized in the future, it is a beautiful meaning and blessing.

We all hope that our children will succeed in life, so how can we hope that our children will hunt in the future?

Sheng Xitai was slapped and did not dare to speak anymore. He just stared at the side of his mouth.

Chen Ruiqing took a look over there and hurriedly came to the rescue, "It's good to like hunting. Don't you think brother Xiping also likes hunting? Hunting doesn't interfere with serious work, that's good."

Zhang Shuzhen was so angry just now that she slapped her son regardless of whether Chen Ruiqing and his wife were in front of her.

At this moment, Chen Ruiqing was persuading him kindly, and Zhang Shuzhen couldn't care less about her son, so she nodded and smiled.

"Yes, with the current situation in the family, the boss has done a lot of hard work. If nothing else, there is really no shortage of meat in the family all year round, which is quite good."

After saying this, everyone laughed, and even Sheng Xinhua, who was playing with wooden swords and guns on the kang, also laughed together.

Since Sheng Xinhua grabbed the knife and gun and didn't like anything else, this week of arrest is over.

So Zhou Qinglan packed up all the other things, leaving only the wooden sword for the child to play with.

After a while, Sheng Xinhua felt sleepy and started to fall asleep. Zhou Qinglan quickly took the child to the West Room to put him to sleep.

Although Chen Ruiqing and his wife were anxious to return to the provincial capital, Chen Feng didn't want to leave. Moreover, the Sheng family tried their best to persuade them to stay, so the couple couldn't be too anxious and could only agree to stay in the Sheng family.

When guests come to your home, always prepare something delicious to entertain them.

The welcome dumplings were served as a farewell to the noodles. I was too rushed at noon to make the dumplings. In the afternoon, Zhang Shuzhen led her daughter and daughter-in-law to chop the stuffing and knead the noodles.

Everyone started making dumplings and cooking together, and made a lot of delicious food.

Sheng Xiping did not go to work in the afternoon and stayed at home to talk with Chen Ruiqing. At the same time, Sheng Xikang also asked Liu Changde and his son, as well as Wang Jiachuan and Zheng Xianyong to come over.

In the evening, the Sheng family set up two tables with eight hard dishes, plus dumplings stuffed with pickled cabbage and pork. It was quite a lively time for everyone to be together.

Chen Ruiqing and his wife stayed one night at Sheng's house and had breakfast the next day before saying goodbye and leaving.

The Sheng family also knew that they could not keep him, so Zhang Shuzhen and Zhou Qinglan began to pack Chen Feng's things, including clothes, shoes, stationery, books, toys, etc.As long as Chen Feng had used things in the past year or so, he would pick the best ones and organize them for him to take with him.

While packing things here, Chen Feng was crying on the other side. He really didn't want to leave.

"Uncle, we agreed that you must go to the provincial capital to find me when the time comes." Chen Feng held Sheng Xitai's hand and cried.

"Well, I will definitely look for you. Remember to write me a letter when you go back.

Do you know our address?Qianchuan Forest Farm of Songjianghe Forestry Bureau, I will remember it thousands of times. "

Sheng Xitai was also there wiping tears, and the two children couldn't bear to leave each other.

Next to them, Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei were also feeling very uncomfortable. Even Sheng Xinhua, who was still naive, had no smile on his face and only stretched out his hand towards Chen Feng, "Brother, brother."

This baby can talk a lot now. He can call him dad, mom, grandpa, grandma, and sometimes uncle and aunt.

The pronunciation is a bit non-standard, and there are very few people who call me brother as standard as today.

Chen Feng walked over, picked up Sheng Xinhua, and kissed Xinhua's cheek.

"Brother is leaving. Xinhua needs to be well. Eat more and grow up quickly. When you grow up, brother will take you to the provincial capital."

Sheng Xinhua couldn't understand what his brother was saying. He only saw tears on his face, so he raised his chubby hand to wipe his tears.

"Brother, brother." The little guy kept shouting.

Over there, Zhang Shuzhen and Zhou Qinglan gathered Chen Feng's things, put them in a large canvas backpack, and handed them to Chen Ruiqing.

"These are things Xiaofeng uses. You can take them all with you. You don't need to buy them when you go back. These are all new."

"Hey, thank you, aunt. I will ask Xiaofeng to take good care of these things. Don't worry, aunt."

Chen Ruiqing took the heavy backpack, which contained the Sheng family's affection for Chen Feng.

Sheng Xiping handed over another package, "Brother, these are the specialties of our mountains, mushrooms, fungus, pine nuts, and two pieces of leather.

Don’t be dissatisfied with it. You can take it home and eat it yourself, or share it with friends and relatives.If you think it's good, I'll send it to you next fall. "

In the northeastern forest area, these are the only things available. It costs no money and a little effort, but it is quite good to give them away.

"There are also pancakes, cooked meat, eggs, green onions and more. You can eat them when you go back to the city and take the train, so you don't have to spend money on them."

Zhang Shuzhen specially cut a plate of the meat that was served yesterday, wrapped it in oil paper, and rolled it in pancakes with meat, green onions, and some hot water in the car. It can make you full, which is better than other dry food.

"Oh, look how bad this is.

We didn't bring anything to the house when we came, but before we left, you still packed us some old food.It's better to stay at home, it will be easier for us to talk on the road. "

Chen Ruiqing had a look of shame on his face. He had helped raise the child for more than a year without paying a penny, and he had brought so many things with him before leaving. He felt very guilty.

"Brother, if you don't accept these, you will be looking down on your brother.

how?Now that you are back in the city, you are the chief of the department. Don’t you look down on me, a powerful lumberjack? "

Sheng Xiping pushed something into Chen Ruiqing's hand and said deliberately.

Chen Ruiqing used to be a junior cadre in charge of foreign trade in the Provincial Department of Commerce. This time he was transferred back from Jiapigou and promoted to director, so Sheng Xiping said this.

After saying this, what else could Chen Ruiqing say?If he really didn't accept the things, Sheng Xiping could fall out with him.

Chen Ruiqing sighed helplessly, "Brother, if anything happens later, just remember to write or call me.

If you ever have the opportunity, you must take your uncle and aunt to live in the provincial capital for a while, and I will take you to visit the provincial capital. "

"Okay, brother and sister-in-law, don't worry, we will definitely go when we have time.

It's getting late. Let me take you to the station. Our forestry car should be waiting there. "

While drinking last night, Wang Jiachuan said that today he would arrange a motorcycle pass from the forest farm to take Chen Ruiqing's family to Songjiang River.

"Xiao Feng, put on your hat. I will take you to the station." Sheng Xiping turned around and patted Chen Feng on the shoulder.

Chen Feng put on his hat obediently, said goodbye to everyone in the Sheng family with a look of reluctance, and then turned around and followed his parents out.

Sheng Xiping helped carry the things and followed the three members of the Chen family out.

Zhang Shuzhen led Sheng Xitai, Zhou Qinglan held Sheng Xinhua, and Sheng Xikang and Sheng Yunfang followed them out to the door, waving to the three members of the Chen family.

Chen Ruiqing led his wife and son to turn around and bowed deeply towards Zhang Shuzhen and others, thanking the Sheng family for taking care of Chen Feng.

"Grandma, aunt, third uncle, fourth aunt, fifth aunt, sixth uncle, brother Xinhua, I will miss you when I leave."

Chen Feng couldn't hold it back and shed tears again, waved to the Sheng family and said loudly.

"Let's go back and study hard. When you grow up, you will be successful. Even if you live up to your grandma and your aunt's wishes."

Sheng Xiping put his arm around Chen Feng's shoulders. Chen Feng turned around after a few steps and left the Sheng family.

Zhang Shuzhen and others stood at the door, watching the departing figures of the Chen family getting farther and farther away and getting smaller.

"Hey, you said that this child who has been raised for more than a year will leave as soon as he wants. Why do I feel so empty and uncomfortable in my heart?"

Zhang Shuzhen wiped the tears from her eyes and muttered.

"Yeah, it's not easy to develop feelings. Isn't it uncomfortable to leave now?" Zhou Qinglan also sighed.

"Okay, it's a good thing that Xiaofeng can find his biological parents. Otherwise, he would always feel like an outsider in our family.

It's okay for the child to be young, but when he grows up, Bao Buqi has other thoughts and wants to find his biological parents.

This is good. Xiaofeng's father is a provincial official, and Xiaofeng is a son. He can't bear the grievances when he goes back.

Mom, don't be sad. "At this time, Zhou Qinglan couldn't say anything else but could only comfort Zhang Shuzhen.

"Hey, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go back to the house. Xinhua is still young, so don't freeze him."

Zhang Shuzhen sighed and said nothing else. She just hugged Sheng Xinhua and led her children into the house.

On the other side, Sheng Xiping took the Chen family of three to the small train station, where the motorcycle trucks were already waiting.

Sheng Xiping put his things on the seat, said a few words to Chen Ruiqing and his son, and then got out of the car.

"Xiping, wait a minute." Just when Sheng Xiping got out of the car and was about to walk away, Chen Ruiqing stopped him.

"Well, there was 500 yuan in the pillow we slept on last night. Remember to take it out and don't lose it."

During the day, Sheng Xiping confiscated the 500 yuan, and while sleeping at night, Chen Ruiqing stuffed the money into the leather of his pillow.

Sheng Xiping turned around and smiled at Chen Ruiqing.

"Brother, there is 500 yuan in the pocket of Xiaofeng's pants. Please remind my sister-in-law to pay attention and don't lose it. If something happens on your way, take it out and use it."

He had known for a long time that Chen Ruiqing and his wife would not give up easily, so he had made preparations in advance.

Chen Ruiqing was choked and was about to turn around to find money. At this time, the motorcycle driver started the car and closed the door.
