Back at Zhong Xiaohai's house, Chen Mingyu saw that Zhong Xiaohai had just limped out of the kitchen, still carrying a thermos in his hand, Chen Mingyu immediately walked over and said, "Brother-in-law, I'll come." ”

Zhong Xiaohai insisted: "No! No! Mingyu, come and sit in the house, I'll make you tea. ”

Chen Mingyu didn't insist on fighting, and followed Zhong Xiaohai into the hall.

Zhong Xiaohai made tea for Chen Mingyu, and then sat down opposite Chen Mingyu, crossed his fingers with his hands and ten fingers together, hung his head slightly, and seemed to be a little nervous.

Chen Mingyu knew that Zhong Xiaohai was a little embarrassed, so he took the initiative to say: "Brother-in-law, I have heard my sister say just now, I am really happy for you, and I am happy for my sister." ”

Zhong Xiaohai rubbed his hands and said: "Mingyu, after you told me those words that day, I didn't sleep all night, I thought about it a lot, and then I finally figured it out, you have a sentence that is very right, life is our own, not for others to see, no one has so much energy to always focus on others, so we don't have so many audiences at all!" I think so, who am I going to show if I am lying in bed like this? What's the point of having my loved ones suffer with me, other than to get my loved ones involved? I'm already like this anyway, and my legs definitely won't get better, so what else do I have to worry about? It's better to fight again and see if you can live a good life! In the past few days, I have picked up the carpentry work again, and I have been busy doing some work every day, and I have made some money with my craft, which is much more comfortable than the days when I lay in bed every day. Moreover, after some villagers came to my house, no one laughed at my lame leg, hehe...... Mingyu, I'm not very good at talking, I won't say anything superfluous, you will see my performance in the future, I will definitely not be so negative anymore, I must let your sister live a good life. ”

Chen Mingyu thought to himself, aren't you also very good at talking, and you can see it very clearly, why couldn't you get out of the tip of the horns before? This person, sometimes it's like he has fallen into an evil spirit, and he can't open that layer of window paper, and once he pierces that layer of window paper one day, many things will not be a thing. said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, I won't say anything superfluous, I haven't played chess with you for a long time, let's play chess today, how about it?" ”

Zhong Xiaohai was also quite interested, and said: "Okay, play a game of chess!" It's been a while since we've played chess together, and I wasn't your opponent before, and I guess I'm not your opponent now! ”

Zhong Xiaohai took out chess and a homemade wooden chessboard from the bedroom, and the two of them fought in the hall.

When the third game of chess was about to end, Chen Yuewen and Zhong Xiaotao rushed back.

As soon as Zhong Xiaotao entered the courtyard, he shouted excitedly: "Brother Mingyu! Brother Mingyu! ”

Zhong Xiaohai said with a smile: "Xiao Tao is back, it seems that he is really happy." ”

Soon, Zhong Xiaotao rushed into the hall and shouted excitedly: "Brother Mingyu, my sister-in-law said that you helped me do the work of the joint defense team, is it true or false?" ”

Chen Mingyu smiled: "Of course it's true, can your sister-in-law joke with you about this kind of thing?" ”

Zhong Xiaotao jumped three feet high happily: "Great! I can finally be a police officer! ”

Chen Mingyu said with a smile: "It's not a formal public security yet, it's just a joint defense team." However, I also told you last time, you can sign up for a correspondence class after work, get a degree, and hope to become a formal public security officer in the future! ”

Zhong Xiaohai advised: "Hear it, Xiaotao, you must do what your brother Mingyu said!" ”

Zhong Xiaotao's face turned red with excitement, and he said, "Well, I must listen to Brother Mingyu!" Brother Mingyu, when can I report to the police station? ”

Chen Mingyu said with a smile: "You prepare tonight, and I will take you to the police station to report tomorrow!" ”

Zhong Xiaotao exclaimed: "Great! ”

At this time, Chen Yuewen also walked into the hall with wine, and said with a smile: "When will your chess game be finished?" Shall I go and prepare the food now? ”

Zhong Xiaohai said: "Okay, let's go and prepare now, let's have an early meal today and have a good chat." ”

Zhong Xiaotao said: "Sister-in-law, I'm going to help you too!" ”

The third game of chess ended with Zhong Xiaohai's complete defeat.

Zhong Xiaohai sighed and said, "It's really not good, I used to be able to get a half catty and eight taels with you, but now I am not your opponent at all!" Mingyu, your chess skills have improved a lot! ”

Chen Mingyu said with a smile: "You haven't played much chess recently, and you're a little bit of a hand, so you'll get back your feel after a few more games." ”

Chen Yuewen is a good cook, with the help of Zhong Xiaotao, the dishes were quickly served one by one, a roast chicken, a plate of fried pig's head meat, a plate of pork fried beans, a plate of tomatoes and eggs, a plate of fried eggplant, a plate of fried peanuts, and two bottles of Huayang Daqu.

In today's era, this table of wine and food is definitely very rich, not to mention that this is in the countryside, even in the city, it is enough to entertain a distinguished guest.

Chen Mingyu said: "Sister, you have made it too rich!" We are all our own family, why are you so troublesome? ”

Chen Yuewen smiled: "It's not troublesome at all, as long as you like to eat." In the future, I hope you can come and play often. ”

Chen Mingyu said: "No problem, as long as I have time, I will come over often." ”

Chen Yuewen said again: "After Xiao Tao went to become a member of the joint defense team, he can be regarded as a person with a unit, and he will come into contact with more people and things in the future, but Xiao Tao's experience in dealing with people is not enough, Mingyu, you have to teach him more in this regard." ”

Chen Mingyu said: "Don't worry, sister, in my heart, Xiaotao is just like my own brother, I will definitely do my best to help him!" ”

Chen Yuewen told Zhong Xiaotao again: "Xiaotao, you have to work honestly and do your duty in the future, don't make trouble, you are a member of the joint defense team through Mingyu's relationship, don't smear Mingyu's face, understand?" ”

Zhong Xiaotao scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm not the kind of person who likes to cause trouble, and I will never cause trouble for Brother Mingyu." ”

Zhong Xiaohai picked up a wine bottle and said, "I'll pour the wine first, let's talk while drinking!" ”

Chen Mingyu stood up and said, "Brother-in-law, I'll pour the bar." ”

Zhong Xiaohai said resolutely: "No, Mingyu, you sit down, I have to pour the wine today, and the first cup will be poured for you first!" ”

Chen Yuewen also said: "Mingyu, sit down and listen to your brother-in-law." ”

"Okay." Chen Mingyu had no choice but to sit down and said, "I listen to my brother-in-law's arrangement." ”

Zhong Xiaohai first poured a full glass of wine for Chen Mingyu, then poured wine for himself and Zhong Xiaotao, and finally poured a glass for Chen Yuewen.

Chen Yuewen said: "I don't know how to drink, so don't pour it for me, right?" ”

Zhong Xiaohai said: "Today is a special day, I must pour you a glass, if you can't drink it, you can leave it, I will drink it for you." ”

After pouring all the wine, Zhong Xiaohai picked up the wine glass and said, "Yuewen, Xiaotao, all bring up the wine glass, let's have a glass of respect for Mingyu." ”

Chen Yuewen and Zhong Xiaotao immediately picked up their wine glasses when they heard this.

Chen Mingyu hurriedly said: "Brother-in-law, this can't be helped!" ”

Zhong Xiaohai said very sincerely: "Mingyu, there are no outsiders today, they are all our own family, let me say a few words." Ever since I slipped off the roof on a rainy day and broke my leg with wheat on the roof, I felt that I was a cripple, and I had no face to see people, and I began to become disheartened with life, and I lay in bed every day, neither wanting to see people nor working, and the whole person was useless. At that time, in order to treat me, my family already owed a lot of debt, and then I became a waste, which made the situation at home even worse, I am sorry for Yuewen, sorry for all my relatives......"

Chen Yuewen's eyes turned red again, and she said, "Xiaohai, don't say that......"

Zhong Xiaohai's mood was obviously very excited, and his eyes were also a little moist, and he said, "Yuewen, you listen to me first." ”

Chen Yuewen nodded tearfully.

Zhong Xiaohai looked at Chen Mingyu, and continued: "A few days ago, Mingyu said something to me, I was deeply touched, some things I couldn't think of, I actually thought about it all at once, just like there was a layer of window paper in my heart, I couldn't poke it myself, but Mingyu helped me open it." In the past few days, I have been changing, and you can all see that I am much happier than I was in bed before, and I can also earn some money to relieve some pressure on my family, I can see that Yuewen and Xiaotao are also much happier than before. All thanks to Mingyu's help! Today, Mingyu has brought good news to our family, and Xiaotao's work has also been settled, and I am ...... Not to mention how happy I am! I believe that as long as our family is united, we will be able to live a good life in the future! However, we all have to understand that these are all brought to us by Mingyu, if there is no Mingyu, our family may still not see any hope! Mingyu is the great benefactor of our family! Therefore, I propose, let's have a cup of Mingyu together! Yuewen, you can drink less, Xiaotao, let's do it! ”

After speaking, Zhong Xiaohai picked up the wine glass, raised his head, and drank a glass of wine.

Zhong Xiaohai also said: "Thank you, Brother Mingyu, I did it too!" After saying that, he was also dried up by a glass of wine.

Chen Yuewen didn't say anything, but she also drank half a glass of wine, she was choked and coughed several times in a row, her face became more and more ruddy, and her eyes were full of gratitude to Chen Mingyu!

Chen Mingyu sighed lightly and said, "Brother-in-law, sister, Xiaotao, I only want to say one word, what my brother-in-law said just now is very right, as long as our family is united, we will definitely be able to live a good life in the future!" Done! ”

This dinner, they have been eating for more than three hours to finish, the two bottles of Huayang Daqu were drunk by three or three, Zhong Xiaohai is not very strong in alcohol, and he was already drunk later, took Chen Mingyu's hand, chattered for a long time, and shed tears for a while.

Chen Mingyu and Zhong Xiaotao drank very well, after the two of them put Zhong Xiaohai on the bed and let him sleep, Zhong Xiaotao was still unsatisfied to buy another bottle of wine and drink with Chen Mingyu, and finally Chen Mingyu persuaded him on the grounds that he would report to the police station tomorrow morning.

That night, Chen Mingyu didn't leave, so he lived with Zhong Xiaotao.
