Chapter 16: Encounter Again
Chen Mo and the others had just had breakfast, and Chen Yunan's family came over in two cars. Chen Yunan has a serious appearance, Chen Mo was afraid of him when he was a child, and he didn't change until he grew up. Although he is in a high position, he has always maintained the role of a junior in front of Chen Yizhou.
He is also approaching 60 this year, and although he has not yet retired, his political life is almost over. Now he has no desires, no desires, and no hope of progress, and he is much gentler towards Chen Mo and his juniors.
Smelling the aroma of wine in the garden, he also went to the storage room to take a look. "Uncle, I brewed a lot this year! When the wine is ready, you have to send me more, I made 20 pounds last year, and I haven't drunk it yet. ”
Chen Yizhou stood up to greet his elder brother Chen Yihua, although Chen Yihua was a few years older than him, his health was much better than him, and he hurriedly helped him and said: "You are not in good health, don't get up, our old brother, what are you polite about." ”
Chen Yizhou sat down and said with a smile: "I didn't send you grapes this year, all the wine has been made, four or five hundred catties of grapes, at least more than three hundred catties of wine can be made." Go back and ask Xiao Mo to send you more. ”
Chen Yunan has three sons and two daughters, and he is accompanied by his two sons and a daughter today, and they are also married. Now the traffic police are not strict about the overloading of the car, not to mention this kind of car with a municipal government license plate, even if you see that the car is full of people, you will not care about this idle matter.
Except for the youngest son Chen Yu, who is still studying in military school, the rest are married, have children, and when it comes to people, there are many more people than Chen Mo's family. The three children who came looked at the grapes and pears in the yard, and they were all very excited, followed Chen Zheng and asked him to pick them for them. For a while, it was not lively.
Chen Mo didn't see Chen Yong, and asked his wife Wuyi, "Sister-in-law, why didn't Brother Yong come over?" ”
"I'm about to go out, and I get a call again, and there is a case in the jurisdiction, so I don't run away by myself."
"For work, yes. Chen Xiaohan, go pick grapes with your Uncle Xiaozheng. ”
Chen Xiaohan is a niece in terms of seniority, but she is two years older than Xiao Mo'er. She now knew that she was shy, and covered her mouth and said, "I'm losing my teeth, and I can't eat sweet." ”
Wu Yi smiled and said, "Let's go play, it's okay to eat less." ”
Li Shan took her hand and smiled: "Don't be afraid, my aunt also lost her teeth when she was a child, and she still eats candy." She is beautiful and has a sweet smile, and Chen Xiaohan also likes her, and obediently follows her to the side to play.
Kang Xuedong took Liu Xia and Yiyi and walked in from outside. "Oh, I'm still late, didn't you delay everyone's time?"
Chen Kangmei said with a smile: "Guests are not afraid of being late, let your boss be the driver today, no matter how late it is, you will have face." ”
"What a guest I'm in! Speaking of which, I've been staying in this small courtyard more than you have over the years. Hello, Brother Chen, every time I see you family, it's really enviable! ”
"What are you envious! I can't finish this heart, where can I compare to your ease and happiness. ”
Everyone arrived, and everyone did not delay much, and they were ready to go. Chen Zheng picked a bunch of pears and grapes from the tree, and used a bamboo pole to shoot a few red dates on the tree, and dropped the red dates on the ground. A large group of people laughed and picked up on the ground, washed them with water, packed them up, and took them to the road for the children to eat.
The two big families, driving four cars, still followed the Jingcheng Expressway, all the way to the north, which was much farther than the place where Chen Mo and the others went last night, all the way to the Miyun Reservoir in the northernmost part of the capital.
The place they are going to today is the camel training center in Miyun Reservoir, which is the internal training center of the municipal party committee, but there are also attached playgrounds, and the services are much better than outside.
The temperature here, even in the hot summer, is three or five degrees lower than in the city, but now the temperature is slowly dropping, and when you enter the mountains, you can clearly feel the coolness.
Chen Yun'an is in a high position, and his presence has made the leaders of the amusement center all stand by, and a small courtyard has been specially prepared for them, which can not only play mahjong, barbecue, fishing, but also prepare a pleasure boat to play in the reservoir.
As soon as a few children got off the car, they were attracted by the boat, but few adults were willing to take the boat, so Liu Xia led the team, took Yiyi and a few children and Chen Zheng to take the boat to play.
As soon as the children left, the adults were relaxed. A group of men and a group of women quickly gathered enough for two tables, and they also deliberately picked two chess and card rooms that were farthest away from each other, and sat in them, without anyone interfering with anyone.
Chen Mo's second cousin Chen Yang was reluctant to play mahjong with his father, but Chen Mo insisted on refusing to play, and he had to sit on it reluctantly.
Chen Jianjun also laughed at him: "Chen Yang, today our three elders fight with one of your juniors, you must win." ”
Chen Yang deliberately said with a bitter face: "You don't know my father's temper, how dare I win his money!" ”
Chen Yunan scolded with a smile: "You rabbit cub, Lao Tzu will still send you money!" You have to have the ability to win all the money on a few of us today. ”
Chen Yang is an alternative to the Chen family, after graduating from university, he did not enter the government or state-owned enterprises, but opened a travel company with a few classmates. Because of Chen Mo's relationship, he and Cao Yu are also hooked, and now the two companies are fully cooperating, one party has power, the other party has money, and the business is doing very well.
Chen Yizhou and Chen Yihua did not mix in the entertainment of the younger generations, and the two of them hugged a fishing rod and sat by the water to catch a fish. Chen Yizhou's hands and feet are not dexterous, it is not so much that he is fishing, but that he is distracting. Sitting under the big tree, blowing the cool breeze in the mountains, chatting with the old brother without a word, enjoying this leisure.
When Li Shan went out, she brought her own easel, she helped Chen Mo serve Chen Yizhou, and found a beautiful place by the water not far away, and began to paint. However, her eyes did not look at the scenery, but drew the two old men and Chen Mo lying next to her.
Maybe he didn't sleep well yesterday, Chen Mo served his grandfather, spread out the blanket and lay on it, and fell asleep in a daze after a while
Finish.
Chen Yihua watched Chen Mo set up a reclining chair for Chen Yizhou from the beginning, pad towels, make tea for them, load fishing bait, and finished all the work before he fell asleep not far from them. "Xiao Mo is good, you can be regarded as enjoying his blessings!"
"My two sons are not successful, if the grandsons are not successful, how can they have the face to see their ancestors. Not to mention other aspects, at least in terms of filial piety, he is more dedicated than anyone else. ”
I don't know how long I slept, but when Chen Mo woke up, he felt that everything in front of him seemed to be unchanged from before he went to sleep. took out his mobile phone and looked at it, only to realize that he had slept for more than half an hour.
After this pause, he felt that his whole body was full of strength again, and the place where he was injured yesterday seemed to be much more comfortable. He ran to the two old men to see that the bucket in front of them was still empty, and it was clear that they were not focused on fishing. In the distance, Li Shan beckoned to him, and he ran again to see how she had drawn.
Although the surrounding scenery is picturesque, Li Shan's framing is only a small piece, the winding shore, three or five trees, two old people fishing, and the figures seem to be blurred. A little closer, Chen Mo was lying under the tree, but instead of sleeping, leaning against the tree, with a weed in his mouth, his expression cynical, like a little hooligan.
"Where is this like me, art comes from life, but it can't be separated from life!"
"Where is it out of life? I'm not drawing you now, it's you last night......"
Chen Mo's heart was hot, if he hadn't come out with the elders, he would have been eager to carry her into the forest and have a happy exercise with her. He glanced around, wanting to see if there was a suitable place to be presumptuous in the afternoon.
In the distance, a group of people walked over, there were men and women, Chen Mo looked at it, didn't know any of them, then turned his gaze back and discussed her painting with Li Shan.
But after a while, a voice shouted from behind him. "Chen Mo ......" Chen Mo turned his head, only to see Zhu Shaochong, who was wearing a hat on his head, his expression changed from suspicious to smiling. It looks like you, it's really you......"
Chen Mo didn't expect to meet him here at all, and he was also stunned, although there was a fight yesterday, but he didn't suffer a loss on his side, although he was hateful to tease Li Shan, but he was smashed by Li Shan with a wine bottle, and he was also retributed.
In front of so many people, Chen Mo didn't give him a look, smiled and said, "What a coincidence, this is to accompany the elders to dinner?" ”
From the position of everyone, Chen Mo could clearly tell that he was only an insignificant small role in this group of people, not only because he was the youngest, but also because he was standing at the back.
The group had already walked past, but only a young man a little older than him stopped and walked over, and the others were still talking and laughing as they walked forward. Only a man in his fifties glanced over and then turned to talk to the others.
Zhu Shaochong completely lost the arrogance of last night, and said with a smile: "Let me introduce, this is my brother Zhu Shaowei, we will have dinner with my father with a few leaders today." Brother, this is Chen Mo, next to him is his girlfriend, and this one on my head was hit by his girlfriend yesterday. ”
Zhu Shaowei is about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a burly body, he looks honest, and the smile on his face gives people a very sincere feeling, but what kind of character is actually not necessarily what it shows.
Hearing Zhu Shaochong say this, he paused for a moment, turned around and scolded: "You kid didn't do anything good, did you?!" Look back at how I taught you! He walked over with a smile, held Chen Mo with both hands and said, "My brother is unreliable every day, please forgive me if I offend anything." ”
Chen Mo said with a smile: "A small misunderstanding, the matter has passed, don't you know each other!" ”
"That's right, if you don't fight, you don't know each other, I'll be the east another day, and then I'll make amends to you. Today, we want to accompany the leader, and we will go over first. Which box are you in, I'll come over at noon to toast first......"
"You're welcome, they're all young people, how can they be so exquisite! If you have time at noon, you can come to Gangnamin and we will eat there. ”
Seeing that the two of them left and didn't turn around and wave their hands, Li Shan smiled and said, "This is turning hostility into jade?" ”
"What else do you want?" Chen Mo shook his head and said, "Don't be obedient if we take advantage." ”
