Chen's mother said in front of Zhang Yunzhi that she was not worried about Chen Anxiu, she was saying that she was obedient outside, but she was really in her own home, only in front of Chen's father, that was another rhetoric, "This time the Zhang family worships the ancestors, there must be a lot of people who go, Anxiu appeared for the first time, and with such an identity, even if there is Xiao Zhang's protection, it is estimated that it will not be too smooth, we don't ask the Zhang family to like him much, as long as it is not too difficult." ”

Although Father Chen has always been broad-hearted, he is not a fool, he understands very well in his heart that in the position of the second elder of the Ji family, it is commendable to accept An Xiu so reasonably and be willing to love him as a son, he never dares to expect the Zhang family to act like this, he thinks so in his heart, but it is not good to say this to Chen's mother, if you really want to say this, as soon as An Xiu and them go for more than half a month, she will not want to sleep at home.

"You don't have anything to think about what to do, Zhuang Zhuang is not the little daughter-in-law who just got married in the past sixteen or seventeen, when he arrives at someone's house, what do people say, he doesn't dare to say more, he doesn't dare to go more, he is Chinese New Year's Eve today, he is young in front of us, and he is also the father of two children when he goes out, he just doesn't think about himself, and he has to think about the future of tons and tons. "If Zhuang Zhuang can't stand up to his waist, how will he raise his head in front of the Zhang family in the future," Besides, Zhuang Zhuang's temperament, you don't know, it's better than Wangwang, yes, but where is it bullied everywhere? It's good if he doesn't bully others. ”

Chen's mother thought about it, and also felt that it made sense, his family was really not standing there and being beaten obediently since he was a child, but then again, how can the Zhang family be that ordinary family, it's okay to come clearly, I'm afraid that the family is thoughtful, and ten Zhuang Zhuang can't play.

Dad Chen looked at him like this, and if he thought about it, he would fall into trouble sooner or later, "It's useless for you to worry too much, you can't go with it, and besides, you just go with it, there should be something or something, you have this time, it's better to pack up your things for Mao Mao, Mao Mao This is the first time to go to the south, he is used to bringing it to him, don't use it to the ground only to find that he didn't bring it, and then go out to buy it in a hurry." ”

Compared with Chen's father and Chen's mother's unease, Chen Anxiu is still calmer, not that he has a good mentality, it is really something that he knows a year in advance, he is really in front of him, and the tension is limited, and he is really busy, the stubble vegetables in the field have to be harvested, and the fertilization management of the autumn orchard has to keep up.

These have not waited to be busy, there are two friends from Huangxiang Town who came to ask him to go to Linshi to see the glass greenhouse, Han Tianming and Han Tianliang are relatives of Chen Tianling's Yue's family, before the brothers have done many years of flower business, and they have made a lot of money, this year they and friends have chartered three or four hundred acres of land, planning to build a large flower plantation, cultivating flowers is inseparable from greenhouses, they know Chen Anxiu, and know that he also wants to build two good greenhouses on the mountain to grow vegetables, so they shouted by the way.

This kind of greenhouse is more expensive than the ordinary greenhouse in the countryside, but the equipment inside is very modern, and there are few people needed to build it, and the greenhouse has become a small ecosystem by itself, recycling, and it is also very energy-saving, Chen Anxiu has planned to do so before, and he usually paid attention to collecting a lot of information, and also went to several plantations in the urban area to visit, and was generally very satisfied, but there were some unclear ways in the middle, and I wanted to find a few insiders to inquire, this time there were Han brothers to lead, it was a rare opportunity, and he did not hesitate to go with him。

Han Tianming and Han Tianliang's flower plantation is a big business, the company leaders over there attach great importance to it, and they have contacted it before, and they received a very good reception when they went, stayed in the city for seven or eight days, visited the greenhouse built by the company before, and negotiated the details, thanks to their blessings, Chen Anxiu's two greenhouses also got the same preferential price. After the business was negotiated, the greenhouse company still wanted to entertain them for a few days, but the Han brothers were in a hurry, and Chen Anxiu was also worried about the children at home, so he came back after another night's rest.

He is busy, of course, Zhang Shinian has no leisure, because he will be busy with the things of going south to worship his ancestors for the next period of time, and the work at hand will also have to move forward, Chen Anxiu went out for a few days, he came back every day to accompany the children, after Chen Anxiu came back, he was sometimes busy late, and he made do with it in the city, but he has been at home for a long time recently, and he is willing to spend time with the child, and he is sticking to him, every time he sees that the big father is not there, he goes to the door to see if the car is back, or he calls, "Dad, come back to eat." ”

Zhang Shinian couldn't handle his actions at all, so even if he was busy now, he would rush back before nine o'clock in the evening, meet with the two children, take a play, and have breakfast at home in the morning.

But sometimes it is difficult to get the whole family together after breakfast, after the eighth grade, the school added a seven-o'clock morning self-study before the first class in the morning, Chen Anxiu as long as he is at home, he usually gets up at less than six o'clock to prepare breakfast, after eating at tons, he has to go out before half past six, more than six o'clock in October, the sky is still dark, the street lights in the town have not been extinguished, and after the corn in the field is harvested, there are not many people walking around the street at this time.

Zhang Shinian's usual routine is to get up at seven o'clock, and recently he has been an hour earlier in order to cooperate with Tonton, but recently Chen Anxiu saw that he was busy until the early hours of the morning every day, and tried not to alarm him in the morning, so that he could sleep more.

This day was almost like this, Ton Ton hadn't finished eating in the kitchen, and woke up, Chen Anxiu heard movement in the yard, and while he hadn't woken up Zhang Shinian, he hurriedly went into the house to help get dressed and picked people out.

Chen Anxiu knew that he was nervous about studying, and breakfast was so early, he was afraid that he would not be able to eat lunch, so he often stuffed some cakes, fruits, omelettes and other things that were convenient to eat and had no peculiar smell in his schoolbag, I don't know how much he ate, anyway, every time he came back, the bag was empty. With his knowledge of tons, he will never throw it away.

"Dad, I can't eat so much. "I went back to the house and got my coat, and when I came out, I saw that my father had stuffed three or four apples in his schoolbag alone.

"If you can't eat it, you can share it with your classmates. Just now, your Uncle Liu called, the taxi has already come, you see if there is anything left, if not, let's hurry over. ”

Ton Ton shook his head, "I didn't leave anything behind, I packed it up last night." ”

"Then I'll send you there. ”

They got up together, and they staggered to their feet while holding the bottle, and he was going to follow.

When they passed, the driver named Wang Wenhua was still eating in the small restaurant, and there were two bowls of porridge on the table and three or four big buns that had just come out of the pot, seeing them come in, he drank two bowls of porridge with a bang, and then took a bag to pack up the rest of the buns, wiped his mouth and came over to greet Chen Anxiu, "Brother Chen, come here." I've eaten, Qiuyang, let's go. ”

Chen Anxiu sent tons to the side of the car, and told Wang Wenhua, "Master Wang, it's still early, don't be in a hurry, drive slowly on the road." ”

"Okay, Brother Chen, I'll drive, don't worry. ”

Tons of kisses took the risk, and said to Chen Anxiu, "Dad, I'm leaving, you can go back." ”

"I came back early from school in the evening and called if I had something. ”

After getting into the car, the car skillfully made a bend and turned to the road, there would be no one to eat in the small restaurant, Liu Bo came out of the kitchen with a pot of freshly mixed pickles, and saw the taxi leave through the door glass, so he said to Chen Anxiu, "This little Master Wang, the car is not bad, but this person is really not good." "The breakfast in their small restaurant is free, but it is free for the guests of the farmhouse, this Wang Wenhua is good, at first he said that he didn't eat breakfast early when he got out of the car, An Xiu took him to eat twice, and now he comes to eat for nothing, without mentioning the money, and sometimes he eats and takes it like today.

"Forget it, Brother Liu, he can't eat much if he opens his stomach, as long as he drives the car well. In fact, what he was looking for before was not this Wang Wenhua, it was Wang Wenhua's uncle Wang Xinyuan, Wang Xinyuan was in the village under the mountain, he was an old driver, he was honest, he drove steadily, he had been driving for almost 30 years, and there had been almost no accidents. It's a trivial matter to eat and drink, that is, when it is Wang Wenhua's turn to pick up tons of tons, it is always not punctual, and it is more common for the car to continue to solicit passengers to go around to other places, and twice it made tons late. He bullied Ton Ton at a young age, and Ton Ton didn't listen to what he said.

Chen Anxiu remembered his past friendship and talked to Wang Xinyuan, it seems to be better recently, he comes to pick up people on time every day, and sends them back in time at night. However, he has already made up his mind that he will be replaced next year after finishing the promised year.

Zhang Jinzhi's special plane is a direct flight from California to Shanghai on the 20th, accompanied by some relatives of the Zhang family in North America, all of whom came back to worship their ancestors this time, they will stay in Shanghai for about a week, the two elders of the Ji family do not plan to go together this time, after the birthday of the ton, they will go to the provincial capital to visit friends, Zhang Shinian's initial plan is to take Chen Anxiu and Mao Mao to Shanghai, and then return to his hometown Yuezhou together, but before leaving, something happened before leaving, Chen Anxiu had to change the itinerary, that is, tonton was sick.

On the 16th, it rained on Green Island, the rain was not small, people who had taken a taxi knew that every rainy and snowy day, the taxi business was particularly good, this day was also, Wang Wenhua was greedy to solicit customers on the street, tons of tons made several phone calls, he didn't go over, and finally tons tons lost his temper, simply didn't use him, he came out with an umbrella to play taxis, but his school location is remote, to go out of a long distance, only to the main road in the city, even to the main road is not immediately able to get a car, tons of wind and rain outside for more than an hour, after going home, it is dark not to say, clothes are soaked。

On that day, Zhang Shinian and Chen Anxiu were not at home, Chen's father and Chen's mother saw that it was raining and had no business, so they went back to the village early in the afternoon with Mao Mao closing the door of the store, so no one paid attention to what he came home from, or Chen Anxiu came back at night to pick up Mao Mao, I heard my parents say that they didn't come to eat, and when they got home, they saw that the food in the refrigerator was not moving, and they didn't feel at ease when they went into the house to see.

Chen Anxiu called people up and fed two antipyretics, heard that he hadn't eaten yet, so he let Mao Mao guard his brother, and went to the kitchen to make dinner, and stayed in this house at night to sleep with Ton Ton, Chen's father and Chen's mother were so angry when they got the news the next morning, Chen Anxiu went to the city in the afternoon, the building materials store was closed, and he didn't specifically tell his parents, Chen's father and Chen's mother didn't know, and they only went home directly after school. What's even more excessive is that Wang Wenhua didn't pick up people and didn't call his family.

Zhang Shinian didn't wait for anyone to explain, he directly returned the taxi, and transferred the driver and car from Beijing to come over, responsible for going to and from school in tons, this time Chen Anxiu did not object, he didn't want to do things too eye-catching, causing people to talk, but it was about children, where could he take care of doing those face-saving efforts.

Tons of illness is several days, Chen Anxiu didn't want to leave him alone at home, but the old man's plane was about to arrive, Zhang Shinian couldn't help but pick up the plane, the two discussed parting ways, Zhang Shinian went to Shanghai, Chen Anxiu waited for tons of illness to get better, and went directly to Yuezhou with Mao Mao.

The discussion was established, and the nineteenth chapter took a plane to Shanghai, and Chen Anxiu waited until the twenty-third to confirm that the ton was really fine, and then took the risk to take the high-speed train to Yuezhou, which is located in the south of the Yangtze River, more than 1,000 kilometers away from Green Island, but now the train is fast, leaving in the morning, and arriving after lunch, a total of only more than six hours by car.

The Zhang family got the news in advance and sent a car to pick up the people at the train station, Chen Anxiu didn't know how Zhang Shinian introduced him, anyway, the two people who came to pick up the station were very polite, one Mr. Chen, and there was nothing unusual about his face. Before coming, he was afraid that the temperature difference was very large, and he was not adaptable, so he wrapped it tightly with his coat, and after arriving at the destination, he felt that it was okay, the weather at the end of October, and most of China would not be too warm.

The car stopped at the gate of Zhang Yuan, and someone came out to help carry the luggage, and there was a person in his sixties who claimed to be called Zhang Qishu to lead the way, Zhang Qishu was a young master, and with the pavilions and pavilions in the Jiangnan garden, Chen Anxiu suddenly had the illusion that he had crossed over, but fortunately, the clothes of the people around him were still normal, and he was not delirious.

In fact, before the time, Chen Anxiu also heard Zhang Shinian say that the Zhang family garden, said that it was left by the ancestors, there are three or four hundred years of history, in the late Qing Dynasty, the Zhang family fell for several generations, this garden was given to others, and later the Zhang family got up, and bought it back, when the Zhang family was most prosperous, this garden even several nearby alleys belonged to the Zhang family, but these properties were returned to the state after liberation, in the late eighties, the garden was returned to the Zhang family, but the alleys outside have been inhabited, and there is no way to say that it is returned, and the Zhang family is not entangled in this matter, and the remaining garden is only less than a quarter of the original。 Compared with the public garden that has now been developed into a tourist attraction, the private garden of the Zhang family is much cleaner, because there is a special fund of the Zhang family to hire people to take care of it, along the way, the garden is simple and leisurely, but there is no obsolescence and defeat.

Chen Anxiu thought that a quarter should be very small, but after he walked for half an hour before reaching his destination, he was ready to overturn his previous thoughts, and finally when he was about to ask how far away, Zhang Qishu said, he pushed the door in front of him and entered, and what caught Chen Anxiu's eyes was a small courtyard, three main houses, and a very big tree was planted in the yard, which seemed to be a green maple, and he was not very sure, because it had not changed color at all, and the tree was still full of green leaves.

Mao Mao is a newcomer, and he is not familiar with everything, so he has always been well-behaved, only hugging his father's neck all the way, and almost strangled his father to death.

The furnishings in the house are okay, simple and practical, there are not too many cumbersome decorations, there are telephones and network cables, tea and snacks and fruits on the table, it should be just prepared, the tea is still hot, Zhang Qishu introduced the location of the bathroom and toilet, Chen Anxiu saw that there was nothing to do, so he let people go first.

Seeing that the person was gone, and he was still relying on his father, Chen Anxiu took him off and put him on his lap to feed him some water to drink, "Mao Mao, do you like it here?"

"Daddy, you have to ......"

Chen Anxiu grabbed his outstretched fat paw and bit it, "Your eldest father and brother will not be able to come over in a few days." "The old man of the Zhang family meant to take advantage of the ancestor worship and wanted to let Ton Ton come over to show his face together, but Ton Ton had to go to school, and it was impossible to accompany him from beginning to end, so Zhang Shinian asked Ton Ton to worship his ancestors and come over a few days ago.

Although the old man has not yet come, there are many people from the Zhang clan at home and abroad, but there don't seem to be many people who can live in this garden, so Chen Anxiu received a lot of surprised and puzzled eyes when he went to the dining room for the first time, when Zhang Qishu introduced his surname Chen, there were more speculations and explorations in this doubt, but everyone is a smart person, and no one behaves too much, that is, before and after the meal, someone knocked on the side and hit a few words, and Chen Anxiu was sloppy and perfunctory.

In addition to these returnees from other places, there are also some local clansmen, the Zhang family has bred here for so many generations, and they are not all wealthy families, some of them look like very ordinary families, and there may be some kinship, so they come to help, they usually talk with a lot less scruples, when Chen Anxiu walks around in the garden, sometimes he hears two sentences, guess what his identity is, and take a child, and said that during the ancestral worship period, this garden rarely receives outsiders. Sometimes I can hear the names of Zhang Jinzhi and Zhang Shinian, saying that they haven't come back for many years, and they are all common big people and the like. Some people also say that good is good, that is, the descendants of that branch are too thin, and there is no dead and dead, and now there is only one chapter left, and I heard that I am not married when I am over forty, and some people say that the former is idle and worried, and what good girl can't pick up with that kind of identity, let alone forty, it is sixty, and you can pick it casually when you go out.

It's really not a pleasant thing to eat with a group of people who don't know each other, Chen Anxiu decided to go out to forage alone with Mao Mao after eating for two days, anyway, no one stipulates that you must get together to eat, his sense of direction is not bad, although the nine-curved corridor in the garden, twists and turns, he has walked twice, and he generally knows the road. At least there was no problem at all from the small courtyard where he was temporarily staying to the door. There was no one to stop him from going out, but he still habitually said hello to the people at the door, so that no one would find them temporarily.

may have found that their father and son were nothing special, at first Chen Anxiu and they didn't go to dinner, and some people asked, but gradually no one asked.

Zhang Jinzhi's special plane was flown from Shanghai to Yuezhou on the 28th, and the people who went to pick up the plane in addition to the people of the Zhang family and many leaders of the provinces and cities, Chen Anxiu followed the car in, and enjoyed the treatment of picking up people on the tarmac for the first time, the plane was stopped, and after the cabin was opened, the first to come out were the flight attendants and two secretary-like people, Zhang Shinian supported Zhang Jinzhi and came out later, Chen Anxiu noticed that Zhang Shinian's eyes swept towards the crowd, so he raised his hand and signaled, and he also saw it, and shouted Dad, but the noise at the airport was very loud, and his voice did not come far, but Chen Anxiu noticed that Zhang Shinian smiled quickly towards this side, and then went down the gangway, the person who looks like a leader quickly steps forward to shake hands and speak, and basically nothing happens to them.

Before everyone waited for the car to leave, Chen Anxiu saw that Zhang Shinian seemed to be walking towards them, but he didn't know what the old man of the Zhang family said, and then they got into the same car, Chen Anxiu unconsciously followed the crowd and took two steps forward, and when he raised his eyes, he was facing the old man's gaze, which was plain and indifferent, and he couldn't see any emotion.
