Chapter 9: Disputes
Unexpectedly, Zhang Tanchun was unstable under his feet, accidentally fell, and suddenly cried in fright. When Zhang Longfei saw it, he hurriedly ran over and leaned over to pick up Zhang Tanchun, who was crying non-stop.
Zhang Xichun had already moved from her grandmother's arms to the back seat of her grandfather's bicycle, shouting with joy. When Zhang Tanchun saw it, he cried even louder.
Xu Wanrong hurriedly walked over and reached out to take the child from Zhang Longfei's hand. After she comforted her with kind words, Zhang Tanchun stopped crying slightly.
"Mom, Dad, you're here." Zhang Longfei said hello, and then took the bicycle from Lin Yuxian's hand and pushed it. Lin Yuxian responded slightly, and then took Xiao Xichun in the back seat in his arms.
Lin Yuxian is nearly sixty years old, his hair is gray, but his spirit is still strong and his body is tough. He was a Chinese teacher at Nan'an No. 1 Middle School, and taught Zhang Longfei high school Chinese for three years, but finally found that Zhang Longfei had inexplicably become his son-in-law. Although he has a lot of complaints about Zhang Longfei's inaccomplishment, for the sake of his daughter Lin Miaoxiang and several lovely granddaughters, Lin Yuxian is also polite to Zhang Longfei. Two years ago, Tianlin Yuxian retired from his teaching post and stayed at home to concentrate on calligraphy. However, Xu Wanrong, who is also a mathematics teacher at Nan'an No. 1 Middle School, will go out to travel every now and then after retiring, and have a good time.
Yesterday, Xu Wanrong had just finished participating in the "Sunset Red Beijing Half Moon Tour" organized by Nan'an Commercial Bank, and when she came back, she heard that Lin Miaoxiang had given birth to a boy, and she was immediately overjoyed. She then complained about why Lin Yuxian had delayed for so long and hadn't gone to see her newborn grandson. Lin Yuxian didn't argue, just muttered that he was embarrassed to see his daughter alone.
Xu Wanrong hugged Zhang Tanchun and walked into the house with a smile. Wei Chunhua just walked out of the inner room with a bowl. She saw Xu Wanrong and Lin Yuxian at a glance, so she hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand and greeted them tremblingly with a cane.
"How can this three girls still be held by their grandmother? Hurry down. Wei Chunhua saw that Zhang Tanchun was in Xu Wanrong's arms, and hurriedly stopped.
Zhang Tanchun saw that his grandmother had spoken, and he didn't care about Xu Wanrong saying that it was okay, so his stomach stiffened and slipped off Xu Wanrong's arm.
Xu Wanrong had no choice but to let Zhang Tanchun slip out of her arms. She stretched out her hand and touched Zhang Tanchun's head, and said pityingly: "Our Tanchun is getting more and more beautiful." ”
When Xiao Tanchun saw his grandmother praising himself for being beautiful, he was even more happy to jump and jump, giggling and laughing.
Zhang Longfei introduced Lin Yuxian into the living room of the hall, and asked Zhang Xichun to play with the third sister. He immediately helped Lin Yuxian make a pot of tea, and then sat aside and chatted with Lin Yuxian.
Xu Wanrong looked impatient. She walked into the inner room with three steps and two steps, and saw Zhang Xiaohun lying on the bed at a glance, and was immediately overjoyed.
"Mom, you're here." Lin Miaoxiang had just finished eating the breakfast made by Wei Chunhua, and was about to lie down and rest for a while, when she heard her mother's voice outside. Lin Miaoxiang was overjoyed, so she wanted to get up and get out of bed to greet her.
"You sit, you sit, don't get up. I'm going to take a look at my little grandson. Xu Wanrong walked to the side of the bed, stretched out her hand and held Lin Miaoxiang's arm, asking her not to get up.
Lin Miaoxiang moved to the side of the bed, picked up the sleeping baby sideways and handed it to Xu Wanrong's arms. Xu Wanrong carefully took it and held it in her arms, looking at it greedily.
At this time, Wei Chunhua also walked over tremblingly. She leaned her head, glanced at Zhang Xiaohun, and said with a smile: "This kid looks the same as his father when he was a child." ”
"Yes, look at this little mouth, how cute it is." As she spoke, Xu Wanrong couldn't help but flick Zhang Xiaohun with her fingers.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaohun, who was asleep, was suddenly woken up, and suddenly cried "wow". The loud voice and the sound of crying really scared Xu Wanrong.
"This kid, his voice is really loud enough, he will definitely make great achievements when he grows up in the future." As she spoke, Xu Wanrong handed Zhang Xiaohun, who was crying, to Lin Miaoxiang.
"I just hope that he can grow up, and I don't care if he does something or not." As she spoke, Lin Miaoxiang stretched out her hand to take Zhang Xiaohun.
Ignorant and ignorant Zhang Xiaohun suddenly stopped crying, but he still closed his eyes, opened his red mouth, and instinctively opened his mouth in his mother's arms to bite indiscriminately. When Lin Miaoxiang saw it, she smiled shyly, but she still couldn't help but stretch out her finger and tap the tip of Zhang Xiaohun's nose, and said lovingly: "You little glutton." As she spoke, Lin Miaoxiang unbuttoned her clothes.
After a while, Zhang Xiaohun fell asleep contentedly. Lin Miaoxiang gently put him aside and chatted with her mother softly.
Lin Miaoxiang hadn't seen her mother for a long time, and the mother and daughter seemed to have endless words, so they left their mother-in-law Wei Chunhua aside. Xu Wanrong saw that Lin Miaoxiang's face was full of tiredness, and she knew that she would definitely not sleep well with the children at night, so she asked her to rest first, otherwise when other relatives and friends came, Xu Wanrong would have no time to rest.
"Xiang, you can lie down first. I'll make you some dumplings and let you knead your bones. With that, Xu Wanrong stood up.
"Mom, no, it's not the first time for me." Lin Miaoxiang said, in fact, she really didn't want to eat those greasy dumplings.
"No, you have to listen to me. If this woman's bone seams don't recover well, there will be times when you regret it in the future. Xu Wanrong refused.
Wei Chunhua saw it on the side, and said slowly: "Yes, dumplings still have to be eaten." ”
Seeing this, Lin Miaoxiang had no choice but to pout her lips helplessly, no longer arguing, and turned her head to stare at Zhang Xiaohun quietly.
At this moment, suddenly there was a fierce quarrel outside the door.
"No, I don't agree with you using such a name." Lin Yuxian's voice was full of anger.
"What's wrong with that name? I think it's a good name, it's just for my son. Zhang Longfei also seemed to be very excited, and he had no intention of backing down.
When Xu Wanrong heard this, her face suddenly changed, and she hurriedly walked out of the door to take a look. I saw Lin Yuxian bluffing and sitting alone on the wooden stool, while Zhang Longfei sat on the side with a slightly angry look on his face.
"What's going on? Why are you two yelling? Xu Wanrong looked puzzled.
Lin Yuxian didn't answer, and twisted his face to the side, as if he was sulking. Zhang Longfei blushed and said the truth of the matter intermittently.
It turned out that when Lin Yuxian happily asked the name of the newborn, he was choked by the three words "Zhang Xiaohun" and was speechless for a long time. He categorically thought that Zhang Xiaohun's name was too outrageous, and he must not let his little grandson bear such a name. Zhang Longfei carefully explained his thoughts and thoughts, but he still didn't get Lao Taishan's understanding, so the more the two talked, the more excited they became, and their voices became louder and louder.
After listening to Zhang Longfei's story, Xu Wanrong was also very unhappy that his grandson had such a name. She still comforted Lin Yuxian with kind words, saying that what Zhang Longfei said was also reasonable, and asked him not to take it to heart.
Lin Yuxian seemed to want to say something, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Xu Wanrong glaring at him. He knew what Xu Wanrong meant, so he snorted coldly and swallowed his words back.
At this time, relatives and friends who came to congratulate walked into the door of Zhang's house one after another. Zhang Longfei had to get up and greet him, and said thank you repeatedly.
Xu Wanrong saw that Lin Yuxian was still sulking with a gloomy face, so she walked over and pulled him and asked him to go and see his little grandson. Lin Yuxian seemed to be a little unhappy, but he couldn't resist Xu Wanrong's drag, and finally followed Xu Wanrong into the room.
The little blower was howling, and the flames in the hearth were soaring. Zhang Zhiwei, the head chef of Zhangjiakeng Village, wears a tall chef's hat and sweats profusely, but still stands in front of the stove with a focused expression, like a professional chef. The iron pot in his hand flew up and down, and plates of delicious food were baked in minutes. It didn't take long for the small courtyard of the Zhang family to be filled with the fragrance of food, as if it had a festive taste.
Zhang Longfei saw that his relatives and friends had almost arrived, so he asked Zhang Jiugong, the chief acquaintance of the village, to help arrange the seats. Zhang Jiugong is nearly seventy years old, but his body is still tough, his speech is correct and round, and he walks with a whirring style. He is a well-known old scholar in the village, familiar with all kinds of secular etiquette, and proficient in the local people's sophistication. But almost all the red and white ceremonies, weddings and funerals in the village are presided over by Zhang Jiugong.
At this time, Zhang Longfei suddenly caught a glimpse of Lin Miaofeng walking in holding Wei Zhongsheng's arm. He sighed in his heart, wondering why Wei Zhongsheng came.
Wei Zhongsheng held a brand-new mobile phone in his hand, talking loudly, talking and laughing, so that Zhang Longfei, who came up, did not find a chance to say hello and talk.
Lin Miaofeng saw Wei Zhongsheng talking on the phone by himself, awkwardly hanging his brother-in-law aside and ignoring it, and he was also very depressed. She knew Wei Zhongsheng's thoughts, and it was inconvenient to say it clearly, so she hurriedly accompanied the smiling face and said hello to Zhang Longfei.
When Zhang Longfei saw Wei Zhongsheng's appearance, he was also very depressed. He knew that Wei Zhongsheng couldn't get along with him, and he was still haunted by the past, but what Zhang Longfei didn't understand was why Wei Zhongsheng came uninvited to attend his son's wedding banquet?
Because of the affection, Zhang Longfei still forced a smile and politely led the two of them in. After Zhang Jiugong arranged Wei Zhongsheng's seat properly, Zhang Longfei went to greet other guests.
Wei Zhong grew up with a short figure, a fat head and big ears, a big belly and a round waist, and was nicknamed "Wei Lao Er". The Wei family can be regarded as a "famous family" in Taiping Town, Nan'an County. The eldest Wei Bosheng is the parent official of Huaxi County, a neighboring county, and he is authoritative; The second is Wei Zhongsheng, although he is illiterate and his mouth is dirty, but he drank a sip of good wine and grew a good body of meat, and he became the richest man in Taiping Town for some reason; The third uncle, Wei Shusheng, stayed in Beijing after finishing college. It is said that he worked in a central department, but the people of Taiping Town did not know what he did; However, the fourth Wei Jisheng is familiar to the villagers in Taiping Town. Because he opened a school in Nan'an County, Nan'an County No. 1 Foreign Chinese School. Nan'an County No. 1 Foreign Chinese School is the largest private middle school in Nan'an County, from kindergarten to high school. The four brothers of the Wei family are well-known in Nan'an County and are well known to passers-by. Anyone who knows even the slightest about them will stay away from them.
