Chapter 82: Happy New Year, Mom and Dad
Zhang Wanru and Shangguan Mingzhu, Shangguan Liang drove back to the hospital. The sisters were separated for half a month, and Shangguan Mingzhu was lying on the bed, cold sweat on her sore forehead. The doctor gave her painkillers and left.
Zhang Wanru asked Shangguan Liang to go back, looking at the eldest sister frowning, knowing what kind of pain she was suffering in order to have a reunion dinner with her family. In her current situation, how much she hopes to keep her life and spend more time with her family. Even if you are sick, you want to feel the warmth of your family.
Zhang Wanru felt that life was too short, and she only lived for more than 40 years in her last life. In those more than 40 years, he was also struggling on the poverty line, in order to live a better life, he worked tirelessly, getting up early and working greedily at night. At the end of the day, you still can't control your own life.
In this life, I must cherish every day, and I must strengthen my exercise and practice stronger skills. At least we can't go back to the old path, and in the future, we must let our children practice martial arts, not seeking fame, but only self-preservation.
Seeing Sister Mingzhu sleeping deeply, she suddenly felt sleepy. She sat in the chair next to her and also took a nap.
On Chinese New Year's Eve in previous years, this time was the sound of firecrackers, and every family was watching the Spring Festival Gala program, but in this quiet ward, the two sisters fell asleep deeply.
It wasn't until four o'clock in the morning that the sound of stray footsteps and sad cries in the corridor woke everyone up.
Zhang Wanru heard that someone had died of illness. It's not a good time, today is the first day of the new year.
Shangguan Mingzhu frowned when he saw Zhang Wanru.
He smiled calmly and said, "It's okay." Don't worry about me. This kind of thing is not uncommon in this department. I've seen it too. Wanru thank you for bringing my brother back to me. I used to be tired of life for a long time, and the only thing I was worried and sorry for was that I was sorry for my parents, and I was afraid that I would be devastated if I left them. Now that my brother can be by their side, and you, the demonic sister, I feel very relaxed. ”
Zhang Wanru's face was sad after hearing this, and she said gently: "Sister, I haven't done enough to be sisters with you, you must cheer up and cooperate with the treatment." Shiya is very beautiful, and you have to watch her get married. When she graduated from college, I took her for a year or two to teach her business. If you don't like it, get a job. ”
A smile appeared on Shangguan Mingzhu's face and said, "Okay." I will. I've already told Shiya everything. She is a sensible child, and I am absolutely relieved to follow you in the future. During the time you left, I turned on the computer and looked at the surveillance, but I never saw you, only a few times in the vegetable processing factory. What are you up to? ”
Zhang Wanru told her about the experience of going back to sell everywhere and delivering goods, and the more she listened, the more she felt that this little sister was an idle person. She had a lot of things to deal with, but she stayed in the hospital for so many days for her own sake.
Running around on such a cold day, you have to deal with all kinds of people.
On second thought, although this kind of life is hard, it is also very challenging. If you can have a healthy body, imagine that she will work hard.
At seven o'clock, Lu Mingyu took his daughter Shiya and two sons to visit the patients in the hospital with old David, which can be regarded as asking the children to pay New Year's greetings to the two.
Unexpectedly, I don't know who bought new clothes for old David, and old David, who was wearing new clothes, looked particularly energetic.
Soon, Shangguan Mingyue came to the hospital with her husband Yang Jingzhi and son Yang Xingyu to visit her eldest sister.
On the morning of the second day of junior high school, Lu Mingyu came to the hospital to take care of his wife.
Zhang Wanru drove to the fruit market, where all kinds of fruits were shipped from the south. She picks out the fresher fruits and buys them, and has them delivered to her car, which is quickly inadvertently collected into the space.
Then he went to the clothing market to buy clothes and gifts for his family and the agricultural technician on the farm.
On the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Wanru said goodbye to the Shangguan family and the Lu family, took her two children and old David, and boarded the plane back to the United States.
Zhang Wanru held Chunqiu in her arms, and old David held Hua Shi, and after driving for more than an hour, the child fell asleep.
Zhang Wanru also closed her eyes sleepily, thinking about the reluctance in her eyes when she was separated from Shangguan Mingzhu, and she felt mixed feelings in her heart.
I promised Sister Mingzhu that I would take on the responsibility of taking care of her parents and younger siblings in the future, and I may be nothing to others, but I must keep my promise, and I will continue to maneuver between the three families in the future.
She smiled bitterly, maybe God is playing tricks on her like this, forget it, just follow the feeling.
got off the plane, and the people who came to pick them up were the eldest sister, Yuchen, and Yulu.
I haven't seen her for more than half a year, Yuchen has grown taller than her, but Yulu has become a big beauty, as tall as herself.
Wanru looked at them and asked gently, "Have you grown so tall?" ”
"My brother is 1.78 meters, I'm 1.75 meters, Mom, I'm as tall as you."
Yulu hugged her arm and replied happily.
Yu Chen hugged her brother from her arms and just looked at her with a grin.
"Eldest sister, I'm bothering you." Wanru said to Lu Minghua gratefully.
"How? These two kids are very capable. They're all up to you, whatever they want. Your family, just like your uncle said, are all demons. ”
The eldest sister said with a teasing smile while driving the car.
Zhang Wanru asked, "Sister, how is the farm?" ”
"A lot of vegetables have been harvested and they are selling very well. In particular, some vegetables have a very high yield after grafting by agricultural technicians, and after this stubble grows fast and weak, then a new stubble is grafted. The father and son of the Yang family discussed with your brother-in-law and prepared to make all the useless greenhouse skeletons. In the spring, some of the land outside the greenhouse was also planted with a large number of vegetables. ”
Zhang Wanru thought to herself, it must be a good benefit to be able to do this, and asked, "Is it a bit in short supply?" ”
"Isn't it? We now only supply vegetables to five supermarkets, and the others come directly to the farms. I heard from the agricultural mechanic that the price of vegetables here is more than three times more expensive than in China. There are also a few Chinese farms that have come to visit our farm, and now they have also started to make greenhouses, and they have also sent people to learn technology. Your brother-in-law and Yang Kuan also often ask agricultural technicians to go to their farms for guidance. ”
Zhang Wanru said: "Yes, let them learn from it, here the Chinese people have to help each other." The agricultural technician is here for a year, only responsible for these greenhouses on our farm is a bit idle, it is definitely good for us to teach some more people, first of all, you can also sell vegetables to us, and we can process and package them for unified sales. ”
Back home, Sister Minghua drove away.
Wanru saw her parents and mother-in-law. The two babies threw themselves into the arms of their grandfather and mother.
The mother-in-law also looked at her and smiled.
Wanru hurriedly said, "Happy New Year, Mom and Dad." ”
"Wanru has lost weight." The mother-in-law asked distressedly.
"It's okay, it's been a busy year. I'm healthy. Wanru said with a smile.
Three days later, Zhang Wanru asked the farm to drive a van, and she loaded a cart of things from the space and sent them to Lu Minghua's hotel, including millet and cereals, fruits, pepper powder, five-spice powder, and all kinds of expensive wines.
Sister Minghua smiled and said, "You send so much every time, which makes me make a lot of money, so it's reasonable for me to give you a part." ”
Zhang Wanru smiled and said, "Do you and I still need to be polite?" You are taking care of everyone here, and it hurts your feelings to talk about money. ”
Sister Minghua said with a smile: "Since you came over, we feel that we have relatives by our side, and we are happier than before. Yuchen and Yulu followed the piano teacher and also participated in a party this year. It was well received with us. The two of them also made many friends. I go to every parent-teacher conference. The teachers were very enthusiastic about me, and these two children were the best in their studies. I'm going to take the college entrance examination this year, and I won't let them come to the hotel to play the piano. ”
"Okay, try to get a good score. I'll stay with them for a while longer. Sister, I want to build a warehouse behind the villa where I live, more than 300 square meters, you and my brother-in-law can talk to him, and find his friend to do it. You can also store some things later. ”
"Okay. No problem. ”
After Zhang Wanru left, she took the rest of the space and loaded it into the truck on the way and drove home.
Parents and children brought down two-thirds of the millet, grains, fruits, and wine, as well as clothes for the family. The rest was left in the car, as a gift to the agricultural technician and Yang Kuan's family.
The next day, after breakfast, David drove his car and Zhang Wanru drove a van to the farm and brought the gifts off the car.
When Yang Lao heard that Zhang Wanru brought it from China, he kept saying words of gratitude excitedly. Especially when I saw all kinds of fruits and drinks, I knew that it would cost a lot. Every time she comes back from China, she always brings a lot of gifts, and I feel very kind to see her.
Before, I still blamed this airborne woman in my heart for getting Smith's farm for no reason. After more than a year of dating, the heart of complaining gradually subsided.
It is because of her that now my family has seen hope, and the profit from growing vegetables has increased several times compared with growing food. I also have good wine to drink all year round.
At noon, Li Jianguo and two agricultural technicians were all having lunch at Yang Kuan's house, and David and Yang Kuan's wife cooked and made a table of sumptuous dishes. If everyone drinks together, it will be considered the New Year together.
During the banquet, Yang Kuan told Zhang Wanru about the New Year's plan discussed with Li Jianguo.
After hearing this, Zhang Wanru felt that Yang Kuan was worthy of being the descendant of the former capitalists, and his mind was not an ordinary aura. After a month in Jiangcheng, I had so many ideas. He has united three farms and has made a plan to advance and retreat together. I also hope to sell the vegetables I grow to several surrounding cities.
Zhang Wanru gave strong support.
Yang Kuan picked up the wine glass and clinked glasses with Zhang Wanru and drank it, and said with a smile: "Haha, I am older than you, now we are like a family, I will also call you Wanru." Sister Wanru, those three farms have a large backlog of wheat and corn and soybeans. They want you to sell it, and the price is three percent off. ”
"How many? There are no raw bugs, right? ”
"There are no worms, I'll ask them to count them. It seems that there are 200 tons of wheat, more than 100 tons of corn, and more than 50 tons of soybeans. ”
Zhang Wanru pondered for a while and said, "Yes, but you can't say it." I'm entrusting someone else to bring it back to China. Too much may not be allowed. ”
"Okay, it's all our compatriots, and it won't be bad for you."
On this weekend, Yuchen and Yulu came to Zhang Wanru's side, Yulu took her mother's arm and begged: "Mom, we made an appointment with our classmates to go swimming in the swimming pool, can you take your younger brother with us today?" ”
Zhang Wanru asked, "Will you?" ”
Yu Chen smiled and said, "Of course it will." We learned it when we traveled to Japan with our grandparents and grandmothers. Now we're all swimming well. Several of our classmates often go to the swimming pool with their parents. ”
Zhang Wanru didn't want to disappoint the children, so she agreed to it.
Old David is like he can't leave two little babies anymore, and he must go with him. Everyone brought their swimming suits, bath towels, prepared clean clothes, and drove to the largest swimming pool in the city.
After Zhang Wanru applied for the membership card, she took the children into the hall, bought four swimming rings, and bought swimsuits for herself and old David, and also bought swimming trunks for the two little guys. I also bought rubber ducklings that I could play in the water.
Zhang Wanru met the children's classmates, Emily, and her parents. His father, David, worked in the government, and his mother, Lauren, was an internal medicine doctor at the city hospital.
Under the introduction of the children, Zhang Wanru met them.
During the swim, the two older children had a great time with Emily, and Zhang Wanru and David took care of the two little ones, and they each wore swimming rings to have more fun.
Chunqiu and Hua Shi wore swimming rings under their arms, and their two legs were constantly paddling in the water, and soon their hands were paddling like adults. From time to time, their crisp laughter could be heard.
Yuchen and Yulu, Emily also came over to play with her brothers for a while when she was tired. The pool is very well done, and you can climb up to the top and slide straight into the water. The two babies giggled as they saw their sister and brother slide down from it, plop into the water, make a big splash, and giggle.
Zhang Wanru also hugged Chunqiu on the high platform and slid down with him, but she didn't expect it to not only scare him into tears, but also giggle endlessly.
When everyone is tired of playing, they return to the shore and sit on the federal chair drinking milk and juice. Lauren exclaimed suddenly. The wedding ring she was wearing fell off at some point.
Emily's father saw his wife's frightened face and comforted him softly, "Don't make a noise, wait until the evening for them to let the water go and see if it's under the pool." ”
Zhang Wanru thought for a while and said: "The probability of doing this is very small, what if the diamond ring is washed into the sewer by the water at the same time as the water is released?" Let's keep quiet and quietly dive into the water to find it. ”
After David asked Lauren where he was moving, he dived underwater three times but couldn't find it.
Zhang Wanru asked Lauren: "Madam, is that diamond ring very expensive?" ”
Lauren said with a bitter face: "It's worth more than fifty thousand dollars." Money doesn't matter. The important thing is the wedding ring. ”
Zhang Wanru thought to herself, it seems that today is not a good day, the first time she went out to play with the children, she encountered such an unlucky thing. Fortunately, my family didn't know them well and didn't get together. Only three children swim together.
I thought that it was fate to be able to meet, so I might as well dive into the water to find it. Thinking of this, he said to Lauren, "Madam, you take care of the child for me, and I will go down to look for it." ”
As David emerged from under the water, he shook his head at them in disappointment.
After Zhang Wanru took a deep breath, a fierce man plunged into the water. Just as Zhang Wanru approached the bottom of the water to search carefully, she suddenly felt that something was wrong?
She swam around and searched, and suddenly realized that she could swim freely underwater without being bored. This strange phenomenon made her ecstatic for a while. What is this operation? Could it be the function of that mysterious space?
It was as if she had discovered a new continent and she couldn't help but swim in the water. Not only did she search Lauren's range of motion, but she also searched around other corners. I suddenly found a diamond ring not far from the sewer.
She swam over and picked it up, and soon surfaced, and swam to them with a grin, handed the diamond ring to Lauren, and said with a smile, "Fortunately, I found it early, just near the sewers." ”
David looked at Zhang Wanru gratefully and said, "I just didn't go over there to look for it." It seems that it floated by with the flow of water, thank you ma'am. I'm in for a treat at noon today, and we'll have a drink together. ”
At Lauren's repeated invitations, everyone came to a luxury hotel and had a sumptuous meal.
After eating, Emily asks to go to the cabaret to sing. David also urged everyone to go with him.
Zhang Wanru really can't sing English songs, so she can't resist the children.
In a luxurious private room, the sound here is state-of-the-art. The children all went up and sang a few songs in English, and even the Laurens sang two songs together.
At this time, Zhang Wanru was in a better mood than when they lost and regained their wedding rings. Because she found that she had another ability to pull the wind, she could swim in the water, and from now on, she would never be in danger of drowning in the water again.
Yulu handed the microphone to Zhang Wanru and begged, "Mom sings a song too." ”
Zhang Wanru is really a little embarrassed. After thinking about it, I downloaded a song "The Shepherd of Keketuohai" from my mobile phone and connected it to the big screen, and soon the music sounded:
The rain that night didn't keep you
The wind of the valley cries with me
The sound of your camel bell still rings in my ears
Tell me you've been here
The wine I brew does not drink myself
The song you sang made me drunk
I am willing to accompany you over the snow-capped mountains and across the Gobi
But you cut off all the news without saying goodbye
Sweetheart, I'm waiting for you in Keketuohai
They say you married to Ili
Is it because there is beautiful Nalati there
Or the apricot blossoms there can make the sweetness you want
There was another drag bell ringing outside the yurt, and I knew it must not be you
No one can sing a song as moving as you do
There is no more beautiful girl that I will never forget
The wine I brew does not drink myself
-----
The snow-capped Gobi Mountains appeared on the big screen, and the song was full of vicissitudes and poignant.
Under the accompaniment of the crisp piano sound, Zhang Wanru revealed her true feelings, and the song told about a lover who was abandoned, and expressed his sadness of falling out of love with a heart-rending singing voice.
Everyone present was applauded by Zhang Wanru's singing and saddened by the separation of a couple. The Laurens and Emily did not understand Chinese, but old David did, and he burst into tears. Maybe this touching story evokes his memories of a certain past, or maybe it's okay.
Zhang Wanru also made friends with Emily's parents, and Zhang Wanru also told Emily's father David about her eldest sister's hotel and her farm, hoping to take care of one or two when needed.
On the second day, Zhang Wanru took her parents, mother-in-law, and old David to the hospital to find Lauren and did a comprehensive physical examination for the four elderly people. The results of this examination scared Zhang Wanru into a cold sweat.
Old David's blood pressure is a little high, his mother Wang Cuiping's blood pressure is high, and his father's body is quite normal, but his mother-in-law not only has high blood pressure, but also has a tumor in her stomach, which is still malignant after biopsy and testing.
Fortunately, Zhang Wanru and her mother-in-law Wang Yun stayed in the hospital after the operation, and stayed in the hospital for a month before returning home.
And the elder David and Zhang Fakui take their children to the swimming pool to swim every weekend. After a long time, the two little babies also learned to swim in the dog planing style.
Two months later, a warehouse was built behind Zhang Wanru's villa and three farms began to transport grain inside. Whenever it's almost full, she will quietly go in and take in the space. Until they bring all the grain over. Zhang Wanru also bought a large amount of red wine, which was also collected in the space.
In April, Zhang Wanru paid all the money for the grain and gave Li Jianguo another $100,000 to buy two large container trucks when needed.
On May 10, Zhang Wanru returned to her motherland by plane.
got off the plane and took a taxi back to Shangguan's house. asked my godmother about Sister Mingzhu's condition.
The godmother said the news of her daughter in tears, and the days are running out.
Zhang Wanru went to the hospital and saw Lu Mingyu and Shangguan Mingyue accompanying them in the ward. When I saw the eldest sister lying on the hospital bed, I was in a very bad spirit.
Listening to Shangguan Mingyue, the eldest sister couldn't eat anymore, and she relied on nutrient solution to maintain her life. There are already a lot of herpes on my body.
Zhang Wanru knew that the limit of the eldest sister was approaching, and Smith was in the end.
Sister Mingzhu heard Zhang Wanru's voice, and when she opened her eyes and saw her, a helpless smile appeared on her face and raised her hand towards her.
Zhang Wanru immediately stepped forward and reached out to hold her together. felt that she still used a little force, but in Zhang Wanru's opinion, it was the eldest sister who issued a wordless entrustment from her heart.
