Chapter X

After the clouds and rain, the two were lying on the bed, and Chen Fengtou leaned on Zhen Sheng's chest. Zhen Sheng looked at the time, it was already more than six o'clock in the afternoon, he put on his clothes and said to Chen Feng.

"Feng'er, wait a minute, let's go see the third uncle and three aunts. ”

Chen Feng nodded and smiled.

"Hehe, what I just wanted to tell you, or do you know me. ”

Zhen Sheng gave her a blank look, and then walked out of the room.

After a while, Chen Feng also walked out of the room, and Zhen Sheng also took advantage of the time that Chen Feng didn't come out to clean up the living room.

"Let's go~"

"Okay, let's go. Wait a minute, just buy some fruit at the shop, there's nothing to carry it. ”

"That's right. My dad asked me to give this to my third uncle. ”

It was a broken pocket, about half a pocket. Zhen Sheng looked at it, looking at the yellow face leaking out of the hole, and understood what was going on. This is the 'souvenir' stick noodles that Chen Feng's father gave his brother! This thing is really rare in Cloud City. However, Zhen Sheng understands that the most important thing for the third uncle Chen Qiucheng's family is this cereals, and people are eating with this thing.

"Feng'er, don't take this thing. ”

"What's the matter? The third uncle and the third aunt still dislike this thing rustic? Isn't this thing rare in the city?"

"No, Feng'er..."

As soon as Zhen Sheng wanted to speak, he was pulled out by Chen Feng.

"Don't grind, don't you have to get up early tomorrow?"

Zhen Sheng didn't speak, the husband and wife walked out of the street leisurely, Zhen Sheng still held the half bag of 'local products' in his hand, when passing by the fruit stall on the street, Zhen Sheng motioned to Chen Feng to buy some fruit, Chen Feng picked a bag of apples and a bag of bananas. The two of them walked towards the third uncle Chen Qiucheng's house.

When I arrived at Xinglong cereals, it was also in the evening, and there were very few people who came to buy goods, but there were indeed many people who bought steamed buns. Because Zhen Sheng and Zhang Zhenzhong don't steam at night, some people who have run out of food but don't want to do it buy some steamed buns and go over.

"Zhen Sheng, the third uncle's family is very busy. ”

Chen Feng smiled at Zhen Sheng. Zhen Sheng hummed softly, and he shouted Chen Feng to walk towards the house, through the front hall full of grains, and through the corridor. finally came to the door of the third uncle Chen Qiucheng's house. The sound of the third uncle, Chen Qiucheng, humming an opera, was faintly emerging, just like when Zhen Sheng first came here.

Chen Feng didn't care about anything else, directly pushed open the door and walked in. Zhen Sheng was a little helpless...

"Third uncle, don't hum opera anymore when you break your voice. I was so scared that I almost didn't dare to enter the house. ”

Chen Qiucheng was stunned for a moment, and his hand was also hanging in the air, and he raised his head in disbelief. looked at Chen Feng who was standing across the table and Zhen Sheng who was standing behind her.

Third Uncle Chen Qiucheng's eyes seemed to be full of guilt, and he calmed down a little.

"You're here, Feng'er Zhen Sheng, hurry... Sit down. I'll go and get you water..."

"Don't be busy, Uncle San, it's a tiring day. Let's drink it and get it ourselves. ”

Zhen Sheng said to the third uncle with a smile, and Chen Feng nodded on the side.

"Third uncle, isn't the third aunt at home?"

Chen Feng looked at the tired Chen Qiucheng, and he hadn't seen him much in half a year. I don't know why Chen Feng feels that the third uncle has aged a lot in the past six months.

"No, ah, she'll be back later. ”

Chen Qiucheng was a little speechless, he didn't know how to face Zhen Sheng and Chen Feng. In his heart, he was a little sorry for Zhen Sheng, after all, a relative who was almost penniless came to join him, and left in a few days. I really can't think of how he came over, Chen Qiucheng didn't experience the poor life, although he was poor, but at least he still had the backbone and that hard work, and Guo Shuzhen was really poor......

Chen Qiucheng's room was extremely quiet at this time, except for the occasional hearing of Chen Feng's words, neither Chen Qiucheng nor Zhen Sheng said a word. Just when the atmosphere was embarrassing to freezing, a knock on the door pierced the oppressive atmosphere.

"Qiu Cheng, look! I sold it for more than 700 yuan today... It's amazing, isn't it..."

But when Guo Shuzhen finished saying this, she saw that Chen Qiucheng's face became extremely ugly. Guo Shuzhen didn't realize that there were already two big people at home, and these two Guo Shuzhen didn't want to see, or she didn't have the face to see them.

"Qiu Cheng, what's wrong with you?"

Guo Shuzhen walked to Chen Qiucheng's side in three or two steps, and became concerned, put her hands on Chen Qiucheng's shoulders and squeezed them gently, Chen Qiucheng hurriedly coughed twice.

"Third aunt, haha, long time no see. Did you miss me?"

Chen Feng seemed to be very happy today, but her screaming scared Guo Shuzhen. Guo Shuzhen clutched her chest, and her eyes widened, just like the moment Chen Qiucheng saw Chen Feng.

"Chen Feng, when did you come?"

"Third aunt, I've been here for a while. I didn't see you just now, so I chatted with the third uncle in the house. ”

Chen Feng smiled and looked at the affectionate third uncle and three aunts, in her eyes, the third uncle and three aunts have been so loving since they were very young, and now she is happy from the bottom of her heart. But for some reason, this time the third uncle and three aunts always gave Chen Feng a sense of separation.

"Oh oh, yes. I really haven't seen it. Have you eaten?"

Guo Shuzhen asked Chen Feng, and Chen Feng just wanted to open his mouth but was interrupted by Zhen Sheng's crisp and sharp voice.

"Eat, third aunt. I just eat, Chen Feng has just arrived, I will take her to see you two elders. This is a local product brought by the family, don't dislike it. ”

Saying that, Zhen Sheng took out the broken noodle pocket under the chair, and it was true that the noodle pocket was not welcome, that is, Zhen Sheng and Chen Feng had been at home for a long time and were used to seeing it.

"What is this? tattered..."

The outspoken third aunt blurted out, but as soon as she said it, she realized how stupid she was. Chen Feng is also there, and Zhen Sheng is not the only one. She can look down on Zhen Sheng, but Chen Feng is the daughter of Chen Qiucheng's eldest brother after all.

"Guo Shuzhen, what do you say?"

Chen Qiucheng's gloomy voice came from behind Guo Shuzhen, sending goose feathers for thousands of miles, and the courtesy was light and affectionate. Even if the juniors don't bring things, they are understandable. But Guo Shuzhen is like this... No one can hang up...

"It's okay, third uncle. I don't know about the third aunt? ”

Chen Feng hurriedly explained for the third aunt Guo Shuzhen, and it was also considered to give the third uncle a step down. But even if Chen Feng didn't think much about it, the attitude of the third aunt also made her feel a little lost in her heart when she came from afar.

"Feng, let's go home first, the third uncle and the third aunt are also tired, so don't bother. ”

Zhen Sheng got up and pulled Chen Feng. Chen Feng nodded and said goodbye to Chen Qiucheng and Guo Shuzhen.

"Third uncle and third aunt, this is what my father specially grinded for you. It's delicious, and he doesn't even want to give it to both of us. I'll come back to see you when I have the chance..."

Chen Feng and Zhen Sheng both walked out of Chen Qiucheng's room, and Chen Qiucheng hurriedly chased him out.

"Feng'er, Zhen Sheng, eat something and then go!"

But the two didn't seem to hear it, and went out of the Xinglong cereal shop by themselves. Outside, Zhen Sheng said to Chen Feng with a smile.

"What does Feng'er want to eat. I'll make it for you tonight. ”

"Zhen Sheng, buy some food and I'll make it for you. ”

The two picked two or three vegetables from the side of the road and went home. When he got home, Chen Feng cooked for Zhen Sheng, while Zhen Sheng sat on a chair in the living room and thought about something. Chen Feng looked at him Zhen Sheng, who was preoccupied, and felt a kind of unspeakable discomfort.

Tomorrow is the day when Zhang Zhaozhong will repay the money, and the money is ready, but with such a large amount of money, Zhen Sheng doesn't know how to tell Chen Feng.

When Chen Feng was busy, there were already three or four stir-fried dishes on the small table in the living room, and he had to say that he went to a good daughter-in-law in the upper hall and lower kitchen. After being busy, Chen Feng also sat down.

"What's wrong? Zhen Sheng. I see you're all worried today. ”

"Feng'er, I have something I want to say to you..."

"Just say it. ”

"That's right..."

He told Chen Feng all about his experience during his time in Cloud City, how he knew Zhang Zhenzhong, Xiao Huangshu, and what he wanted to pay back Zhang Zhenzhong. The third uncle and three aunts are not good, he hid them appropriately. After listening to what Zhen Sheng said, Chen Feng was silent at first, and then he could see that her eyes were already red.

"Zhen Sheng, the third uncle and the third aunt must not be good to you..."

"How is it not good... It's so good, you think too much..."

"If it's good, shouldn't you be in Xinglong Grains now?"

was blocked by Chen Feng's questioning and had nothing to say, it was indeed because of the words of the third aunt that day, he would have been in Xinglong Grains now, instead of coming out. is watching the third aunt also steam steamed buns, it must be to grab business.

"Go ahead, and besides, you didn't pay back the money in vain. Don't we at least have a nest of our own!"

Chen Feng is always so understanding, she is very considerate of Zhen Sheng. From your own point of view, it is good to have money, but the grace of dripping water cannot be changed when the spring repays this reason. Otherwise, when I go home in the future, I will spread the rumors that that guy is very bad...

"You agree?"

Zhen Sheng was skeptical, after all, more than 20,000 yuan and nearly 30,000 yuan were not a small amount of money at that time, and many families had never even seen a fraction of this money.

"You can earn it again when the money is gone, since you promised Uncle Zhang, then you can do it steadfastly, I support you. “

This sentence made Zhen Sheng's heart relax a lot. After eating, Zhen Sheng took out the money he had earned in the past two months and counted it. He took out 26,833 yuan from it, picked up his wallet with newspaper, and put it in a prepared cloth bag. Then I went to bed... Zhen Sheng didn't sleep well this night, he thought a lot, although Chen Feng didn't have much to say, Zhen Sheng couldn't help it, after all, this money is about the present and the future.

Early the next morning, Zhen Sheng got up early. One person is busy outside, but Chen Feng doesn't know when he has gotten up. She watched quietly from the side how Zhen Sheng did it, and Chen Feng learned it very quickly. After a while, he also sat down and helped Zhen Sheng steam together.

"Feng'er, why are you getting up so early?"

"Why don't you do it, help you. Wouldn't you have been able to finish it sooner..."

Zhen Sheng smiled and nodded, some people don't need too many words to understand, except for parents and brothers, they are married couples. The two of them only saw that they understood each other, their hearts were intertwined, and what difficulties and setbacks could not be broken?

When all this was taken care of, the sun began to rise. The beautiful morning sun pierced through the clouds, dyeing the surrounding clouds fiery red, and the passers-by also made this ancient city more and more vibrant and full of hope. Zhen Sheng was bathed in the baptism of morning light, he actually felt that every day in the future was full of hope, as long as he kept up with the pace of the times, he would not fall behind if he explored step by step.

Zhen Sheng went back to the room and picked up the cloth bag containing the money, said a word like Chen Feng, and went out. Walking towards the door of the Bun King, there were many pedestrians on the road, but it also made Zhen Sheng feel that the road ahead was not lonely.
