- Chapter 134 - Extraordinary 2: The Chen brothers come to Beijing
In September 1980, in the first semester of the sophomore year, Song Fengchen was transferred from the Beijing University to a full-time student as he wished.
When he returned home after completing the relevant procedures, Xu Shujian was preparing dinner.
Song Fengchen took out half of a watermelon from the refrigerator, cut a piece, bit it, and walked into the kitchen. When he reached the place, he leaned on the door frame and asked, “What did Dad say?”
Xu Shidao and Du Baoli worked together for two years, and finally achieved a positive result.
Xu Shujian kicked the trash can at his feet to Song Fengchen: “After the negotiation, the wedding date is set for October 1st.”
Xu Shujian held a blessing attitude towards this. His mother died of a serious illness when he was five years old. On the one hand, Xu Shidao still missed his beloved wife, on the other hand, it was also to take care of Xu Shujian’s feelings, and even more because of being taken care of. Affected by some rumors outside, worried that the remarried wife would treat Xu Shujian badly, so he simply gave up his plan to remarry.
Eighteen years have passed since this dazzling.
By all accounts, Xu Shidao is already forty-one years old.
In the past, the father and son could still depend on each other, but now he and Song Fengchen are together, and there is always something that Xu Shidao could not take care of. At this moment, he finally lived in another Du Baoli in his heart, and there was a reliable person by his side, Xu Shujian was happy that it was too late.
Du Baoli is 13 years younger than Xu Shidao. The age gap is not small, but the outside world is generally optimistic about their combination.
One is that although Xu Shidao is getting older, he has a reputation for being clean and self-contained, and he is backed by Mr. Xu who is the dean of the dean of the party school. In addition, he himself is capable, and his future is bright.
Secondly, although Du Baoli was young, she couldn’t bear to be infertile. Of course, this is not meant to discredit her. After all, such national conditions are always harsh on women.
Fortunately, Xu Shujian has moved out. For Du Baoli, facing a stepson who is not much different from her, although it is unavoidable to get along with her, it is better than facing a Maotou boy or a boy who is in the rebellious period. Genjin’s children are much better, let alone Xu Shujian’s attitude towards this marriage from beginning to end.
It is a good thing for Du Baoli that he can be the master of the house as soon as he gets married without having to bring his stepson.
“Okay.” Song Fengchen nodded.
As he was talking, the pressure cooker on the gas stove was gasping, and a faint smell of meat permeated. He sniffed, threw the watermelon rind left in his hand into the trash can, and asked: ” What are you cooking?”
Xu Shujian replied: “Chestnut stewed chicken.”
“Hey!” Song Fengchen was surprised: “Has the chestnuts in the vegetable garden ripened?”
“It’s ripe, as well as winter dates and walnuts. They are all ripe. When you have time, pick some and give them to Grandpa Zheng to taste.”
“Good.” Song Fengchen naturally agreed.
On October 1st, the wedding was held as scheduled.
The wedding process in the 1980s was actually not much different from that of later generations.
The wedding photos were taken long ago and are in color.
The wedding room was the second courtyard courtyard that Guo Bingsheng gave to Xu Junmin. It was renovated two months ago.
As for the bride price, the Xu family gave two thousand yuan plus a set of “three big pieces”.
In this era, ordinary people’s “three big pieces” refer to bicycles, sewing machines and semiconductor radios. These are all in short supply on a ticket basis. Generally speaking, it is difficult to buy without a back door, and it is impossible to buy them for five or six hundred dollars. .
When it comes to Xu’s house, the class is different, and things naturally have to be upgraded. The “three big pieces” have also become TV sets, washing machines and refrigerators, and their prices have increased more than tenfold.
These things almost emptied most of the Xu family’s property.
As for the Du family, they married a complete set of furniture, Huanghuali, with a total of 72 legs.
The witnesses invited Zhao Chengyu, Song Fengchen and Xu Shujian to present a pair of Rolex watches as gifts.
The banquet after the wedding was full of sixteen tables, and it was a rare excitement.
Satiated with alcohol and food, helping Xu Shidao send the guests away one by one, Song Fengchen helped Xu Shujian, who was drunk, back to the mansion.
“You can’t drink so much, now you know it’s uncomfortable.”
After taking a shower, Song Fengchen took Xu Shujian into bed, twisted a cold towel and put it on his forehead, then ran to the kitchen to make a cup of honeysuckle honey water out, climbed on the bed and put the person in his arms, and brought the water cup to his mouth. : “Drink some hydrolysis and hangover.”
Xu Shujian opened his mouth and drank a small cup very well.
After a while, Song Fengchen took off the hot towel on his forehead and asked, “Is it better?”
“Yeah.” Xu Shujian dragged a long nasal sound, turned over and found a comfortable posture and lay in his arms.
“Okay.” Song Fengchen stroked his hair, “Dad is married, isn’t I still with you?”
He can understand Xu Shujian’s mood. After all, he and Xu Shidao have lived together for more than ten years, and now a stepmother suddenly inserted in. Although Xu Shujian’s face is not obvious, his mood is definitely complicated.
“I know.” Xu Shujian raised her head: “I now finally understand how grandpa and dad felt when I moved out to live with you.”
Song Fengchen bowed his head like a stream and kissed the corner of his mouth, sticky.
He retracted his head and licked the corner of his mouth, sweet.
Then he attached it again, pried Xu Shujian’s lips and teeth, and sucked.
Until he couldn’t taste the sweetness anymore, he let go of Xu Shujian contentedly: “Okay, go to sleep, you will study by yourself tomorrow morning.”
Xu Shujian twisted his hot body, but he drank too much, the chicken was not strong, and he couldn’t stand up. The thought of wanting Song Fengchen to help the fire was half gone. He rubbed Song Fengchen’s chest muscles, half of it. Replied disappointedly: “Yeah.”
Early the next morning, Xu Shujian was sent away, Song Fengchen cleaned the kitchen and went out.
The two brothers of the Chen family have come to Beijing.
“Uncle San!” Seeing Song Fengchen waiting at the exit, the two brothers of the Chen family who were carrying large and small bags shouted from a distance.
“Why did you bring so many things here?” Song Fengchen quickly reached out to pick up the old second-hand items from the Chen family.
The second child of the Chen family shied away for a while, and finally he divided half of his parcel away.
“Go, go to my house first.” Song Fengchen led the two of them out. When passing by a biscuits stall, he seemed to think of something. He asked, “By the way, did you two have breakfast?”
“I’ve eaten it.” The old Chen family Dalian, who was looking around and looking around, replied, with uncontrollable curiosity and excitement on his face.
Having lived for more than forty years, this is the first time their brothers have traveled far in their lives, let alone the capital. The excitement is self-evident.
When I returned to the mansion, I could see that Song Fengchen was really enthusiastic, and most of the anxiety and restraint in the hearts of the two brothers followed.
“Uncle San, your house is really spacious!” Chen’s second child couldn’t help but said, his eyes full of envy.
“It’s okay.” Song Fengchen replied with a smile, then took out two bottles of orange soda from the refrigerator, took the corkscrew to open the cap, and handed them to them.
“By the way, is the second sister-in-law in good health?”
The boss of the Chen family took the soda with both hands, took a small sip, resisted the urge to smack, and replied with a smile: “My mother is in good health. After I got up at home, she didn’t let her go to work. But she I can’t take it easy. No, it helped Chen Shi bring up the children.”
Song Fengchen nodded: “By the way, how are my second sisters?”
“Isn’t this when the Revolutionary Committee was changed to the People’s Government last year? The second aunt and the second aunt are now public servants of the town government. The second aunt works as a receptionist at the Civil Affairs Office. The second aunt has inconvenient legs and feet, but he went to work the year before. In the evening school for one year, literacy was basically not a problem, so he was arranged to work in the archives room.”
“By the way, the third uncle,” the boss of the Chen family thought for a while, and said truthfully: “Song Lingyi and He Ziming divorced, just two months ago.”
After He Zibo was expelled from Beijing University, he dragged a broken leg back to Dongxian with a sullen face. Probably he couldn’t stand the psychological gap and the pointers of neighbors in the neighborhood, and he resented Song Fengchen even more in his heart. Later, he transferred these resentments to Song Lingyi, and used the drunkenness to beat Song Lingyi out of bed several times.
The He family also hated Song Fengchen, and they treated He Zibo’s actions and Song Lingyi’s complaint as if they hadn’t seen it.
After seeing the He family, Song Fengchen and Song Lanzhi had already hated Song Lingyi. Song Lingyi had no other way of retreating except for his house. They had no choice but to let them decide.
It’s just that they didn’t expect that once a person is in desperate situation, the urge to survive is enough to overthrow everything.
After being beaten again, taking advantage of the effort of no one in the family, Song Lingyi dragged a broken body over the wall and escaped from the He’s house, and fell in front of Song Lanzhi.
“Second aunt, she felt relented for a while, so she took in Song Lingyi. After the He family heard the news, they came to the door. Fortunately, the second aunt made a decisive decision, and the trustee called the police… After Song Lingyi woke up, he reported the He family. The court sentenced He Zibo to twelve years in jail for torture and intentional injury. Old man He couldn’t bear this blow, and he disappeared immediately after he fainted.”
Of course, here, the Chen family boss has made a lot of effort.
Hearing this, Song Fengchen calmly said, “This is retribution.”
He paused: “How is Song Lingyi now?”
“There was a small stall selling melon seeds at the entrance of the cinema, and my life was so-so.”
“All right.” Song Fengchen cleared up his mood, “By the way, when will you go to the party school to report?”
The Chen family boss didn’t come to the capital to play.
After Xi Gong came to power, he immediately set out to clean up the mess of the great turmoil. The former high-spirited rebels fell one after another. While the officialdom was in a hurry, there were naturally a lot of places vacated.
So the Chen family elders who are rooted in Zhengmiaohong have been promoted as a matter of course. Of course, Zhao Chengyu’s handwriting is indispensable, and now he is the county magistrate of Dongxian. After Xu Junmin, who was in charge of party school admissions, knew about this situation, he enrolled him in this year’s county magistrate training class.
“the day after tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Song Fengchen nodded: “You have to rest first. I have all the rooms ready. In the afternoon, I will accompany you to a few elders for a walk.”
“Okay, thank you Sanshu.” The Chen family said with a big smile.
