Chapter 356: Meeting
Ever since he asked Lexi to accept the peace charm sent by Ni Junyao that day, Zhang Chen felt that he was suddenly less cramped when facing her.
Because of Zhang Nianjun's matter, Zhang Chen felt that he had never been close to this blood mother, even if he was in the same room, there was nothing to say. And Ni Junyao usually feels that in front of this lost son, no matter how much effort is spent, she has not been able to have the intimacy between her and Zhang Nianjun in front of this lost son.
This created a vicious circle, Zhang Chen was reluctant to deal with her, Ni Junyao also felt that his son did not want to see him, and even if the two of them sat face-to-face, there was almost zero communication.
Later, when Zhang Nianjun's incident happened, Ni Junyao also knew that Zhang Nianjun had been using her all along, and wanted to repair the relationship with Zhang Chen, but suddenly found that he had no way to start.
Now every day because of the child, the mother and son have more opportunities to contact, although they still have some nostalgia for the past, Zhang Chen gradually learns and communicates with her patiently.
The relationship between the two has eased a lot.
At least when eating at the same table, you can affectionately put a few chopsticks on each other to express your concern for him or her.
That's it.
It is difficult to break the mirror, and the gap between mother and son cannot disappear, what they can do is to leave more warm years in their memories for future nostalgia.
……
In the reluctance of Ni Junyao and the people in the capital, Zhang Chen still took Lexi and the children to Taikang Town.
Taikang Town has developed into one of the most prosperous towns in Zhuo County, and the streets are much more prosperous than before.
Da Zhuang is now one of the food bosses, with the foundation that Zhang Chen helped him lay at that time, coupled with his daughter-in-law Li Yuanqiu's talent for the use of seasonings, his business is getting bigger and bigger, and now he is a big boss with a hot pot restaurant, snack bar, and a drunken cloud house that can be compared to Ruyi Restaurant.
There is also a unique secret sauce developed by Li Yuanqiu, which is exported to the capital, and usually people eat a hot pot or something at home, they will buy a few packs, and the taste is not worse than what they eat in a hot pot restaurant.
After seeing Zhang Chenyou, Da Zhuang was happier than when he became a father, and bluntly said that he would set Zhang Jixiang as early as possible and be his daughter-in-law in the future.
"You can pick any of the two boys, you can take any of them!"
Zhang Chen just smiled at this, he wanted to build a family with his children, Da Zhuang was not the first one, Nan Jiayang and Liu Mingxuan had mentioned it to him.
But whether they were joking or not, Zhang Chen never promised anyone.
He doesn't want his children to grow up in the future and look down on each other or be looked down upon by each other. If you can't be sure that there will be feelings between them, then it is better not to let others think in this direction at the beginning, and in the end, it will not be good to achieve a pair of resentful couples.
If someone else reacted like this, Da Zhuang would definitely think that the other party was disgusted with his low status and was not worthy of marrying him, but for Zhang Chen, Da Zhuang couldn't understand it anymore, knowing that he really didn't want to interfere in the marriage of his children, so he didn't mention it anymore.
However, he told Zhang Chen something important about Sun Yang's family.
Since he left the old lady in Taikang Town, Sun Bin, who has not been heard from, sent someone to place the old lady half a year ago.
Because of Sun Yang's inconvenience, although Sun Bin did not take the old lady to him to wait, he bought a house for the old lady in the town, and also bought a few servants to take care of her.
The people of the entire Linjia Village said that Sun Yang's family had really come out, although Sun Zhou was no longer enthusiastic about the old lady, but he had taken good care of her over the years, and now the third child was even better.
"Even your unconscionable uncle's family was taken care of by your third uncle, and he paid for them to buy a shop next to the market to do business!"
"Oh? And such a good thing? Zhang Chen raised his eyebrows, Sun Bin's temperament is cold, he knows it deeply, he doesn't believe it at all, it's just that he hasn't seen him for a few years, and Sun Bin will have such a earth-shaking change for no reason.
However, he will not go to Sun Zhou to find out what happened in order to solve his confusion, and no matter whether the Sun family is doing well or not, it has nothing to do with him.
Knowing that Zhang Chen was back, Sun Zhou had come to visit, and he also knew that he was not very well treated, so he only left two silver longevity locks for the two children and left stupidly.
His expression was quite dejected, Zhang Chen wanted to ask if something had happened to him, but thinking that he didn't have any position, he simply gave up.
Afterwards, Da Zhuang told Zhang Chen that Zhang Nianjun's flower willow disease was terminal, and in order to save his life, his expenses increased day by day, and in the end, not only did he spend all his savings, but even Sun Zhou's family business saved over the years was almost lost.
"Fennel and her mother are that forbearant temperament, even if they are unwilling, they don't care about him, if it weren't for the fennel help, then it's impossible to say whether Sun Xiao can grow up safely!"
Sun Xiao is the son born to Sun Zhou and the Wang family, and Zhang Nianjun should be half-brothers, but Zhang Nianjun has never spent a copper plate on him since he came back from the capital with Wanguan's family wealth, but Sun Zhou has subsidized all the family wealth that should have belonged to Sun Xiao to Zhang Nianjun's body. The key is that Zhang Nianjun is not grateful for this at all, but takes it for granted.
Zhang Chen really misses the little brother who will chase after him and call his brother. Although he finally found out that he had no blood relationship with him at all, he really loved him at the beginning.
In addition, Erniu also let herself bring him some things, Zhang Chen sighed, this trip to Linjia Village is really inevitable.
……
When Zhang Chen arrived, it was almost dusk. When the setting sun sprinkled on the farmhouse courtyard with misty cooking smoke, it cast a golden light on the whole yard.
Wang was cooking in the kitchen, and when she heard the movement coming out of the room, she saw that it was Zhang Chen, who she hadn't seen for a long time, and a smile appeared on her face, "Ah Chen, you haven't been here for a long time." ”
"There's always something to do." Nodding at her, Zhang Chen motioned to the coachman behind him to help him unload the things on the carriage.
"Erniu asked me to bring Sun Xiao a lot of things, where did he go?"
"He? I went to the pond to catch fish and came back in a while! Speaking of Sun Xiao, Wang's face smiled even more, "He knows that his brother and sister have been worrying, but he is going to be happy!" ”
After finishing speaking, she seemed to have just thought of something, the expression on her face was a little subtle, she looked left and right, and then lowered her voice and said: "Nian, Nianjun, in the backyard, you ......"
She knew the entanglement between Zhang Chen and Zhang Nianjun, she was afraid that the two of them would meet!
