Rebirth in officialdom and rising to the top

Seeing the confusion on Chen Wangyang's face, Zhang Zhonghe laughed and said:

"Why, Grandpa Zhang, did I call you confused?"

Chen Wangyang also wanted to find out what kind of person Zhang Zhonghe was, so his curiosity prompted him to "honestly" pretend to be confused:

"Yes, Grandpa Zhang, do you know my grandma?"

Zhang Zhonghe's old face showed a trace of nostalgia, and after a while he said with a smile:

"I don't know your grandfather, but your grandmother, Comrade Ren Guihua, is my savior!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhonghe's eyes flashed with wisdom:

"Haha, that bastard Zhang Juan must have told you, right? You brat is still pretending to be confused with me, grandpa?"

Come on, these old men don’t even have a fuel-efficient lamp. Have they been exposed?

Chen Wangyang was upset in his heart, but on the surface he said with a silly smile:

"Grandpa Zhang, you have wronged me. How do I know if Aunt Zhang Juan is telling the truth?"

How could Zhang Zhonghe not see Chen Wangyang’s little thoughts?

It's just that he won't care about these little details with the grandson of his benefactor whom he thinks highly of and loves:

"What you said makes sense! But in this regard, you have wronged your Aunt Zhang Juan. Although she is unworthy, she does not dare to joke about it!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhonghe sighed and said:

"I feel ashamed to say it. I didn't expect that I, Zhang Zhonghe, have devoted my whole life to serving the country and the people, but in the end I gave birth to such a bunch of bastards. I really have no face to face my ancestors, let alone the party and the people!"

Chen Wangyang didn't know how to comfort this old man who was already in his twilight years and whose family had suffered such a big change. He was in no position to comfort him - after all, if he hadn't been "in the way", the Zhang family would be in full swing and prosperous. Woolen cloth!

So Chen Wangyang chose to remain silent at this moment.

Fortunately, Zhang Zhonghe quickly sorted out his emotions, wiped the wet corners of his eyes, and said with a wry smile:

"I'm sorry, Xiao Wangyang, I made you laugh!"

At this time, Chen Wangyang couldn't help but feel pity and sympathy for the old man. Hearing this, he shook his head and said:

"It's okay, Grandpa Zhang. Although I can't empathize with you, I can probably understand your feelings. If I did so many unreasonable things, my grandma would probably be pissed to death by me!"

When he mentioned Ren Guihua, Zhang Zhonghe couldn't help but have a look of excitement in his eyes:

"Haha, that's true. With your grandma's fiery temper, she will definitely break your legs with her own hands before she gets mad at you!"

Chen Wangyang asked curiously:

"Grandpa Zhang, what did my grandma look like when she was young? We don't even have a photo of grandma when she was young. I'm really curious!"

Zhang Zhonghe smiled slightly when he heard this, carefully took out an old photo from the breast pocket of his hospital gown, and handed it to Chen Wangyang:

"I have it here, let's take a look!"

Chen Wangyang just reached out to take it, but Zhang Zhonghe suddenly retracted his hand as if it were a treasure, and nervously warned:

"This photo is my treasure, Grandpa Zhang. Xiao Wangyang, please be gentle when you handle it, so as not to damage it!"

puff~

Chen Wangyang was so amused by Zhang Zhonghe's naughty side that he couldn't help laughing, and quickly assured:

"Don't worry, Grandpa Zhang, I will pay attention!"

After hearing this, Zhang Zhonghe carefully handed over the old photos again:

"Okay, Grandpa Zhang will trust you just once. Let's take a look!"

Chen Wangyang carefully took the old photo with both hands and looked at it carefully:

In this yellowed old photo, I saw a handsome and heroic girl with two black oily braids, a large cotton-padded jacket, and two shell guns stuck at her waist, standing next to a tall, tall figure. Next to a handsome young man wearing a Red Army uniform, he is looking at the camera with a bewildered expression.

In the background behind them is a pagoda standing on the top of a mountain. At a glance, you can tell that it is in the Holy Land of Revolution, Pagoda City in Qin Province!

"Wow! Grandma was so beautiful when she was young!"

Chen Wangyang couldn't help but sigh:

"Isn't this Grandpa Zhang next to you?"

Zhang Zhonghe turned red at this time and said shyly:

"How about it, wasn't Grandpa Zhang quite handsome when he was young?"

"It's handsome!"

Chen Wangyang first nodded in agreement, and then saw something from the photo:

"But Grandpa Zhang, didn't you like my grandma when you were young?"

"Pfft!!!"

Zhang Zhonghe, who had just picked up the tea cup and took a sip, squirted out. Fortunately, Chen Wangyang was far more agile than ordinary people and hid at the critical moment. Otherwise, this old photo that Zhang Zhonghe regarded as a treasure would have been hanging... …

"Grandpa Zhang, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Zhonghe wiped the water stains from the corners of his mouth, and then said angrily:

"How do you know? Did that bastard Zhang Juan tell you?"

Having said this, Zhang Zhonghe himself overturned his guess:

"No, no one knows about this except Guihua and me. Zhang Juan can't know about it either. Could it be that Guihua told you?"

Chen Wangyang shook his head and said:

"No, my grandma never told our family what happened in the past, let alone this kind of thing. If you hadn't admitted it yourself, I wouldn't have believed that my grandma was your savior!"

Zhang Zhonghe’s face was full of disbelief:

"Then how do you know that I liked your grandma when I was young?"

Chen Wangyang shrugged, pointed at the old photo and said:

"I studied criminal psychology on my own when I was in college. From the way you look and stand in this photo, Grandpa Zhang, you can tell that you like my grandma. This is actually not difficult!"

Zhang Zhonghe stared at Chen Wangyang's eyes for a long time, and found that there was no dodge in his eyes, so he believed most of it:

"Well, I didn't expect you, Xiao Wangyang, to have such a sharp eye. You are indeed the grandson of Ren Guihua!"

Having said this, Zhang Zhonghe's old face turned red again, and he said a little shyly:

"You're right. Grandpa Zhang, I did have a good impression of your grandma back then. I even wrote her a love letter before she left the pagoda. But I didn't expect that she couldn't read at all. As a result, I missed her so regretfully. Already..."

Having said this, Zhang Zhonghe sighed with regret:

"What a twist of fate. I didn't expect that after we said goodbye that day, we met again after liberation. At that time, Guihua was not only married, but she also had children! It's a pity that the medical conditions at that time were so poor. Your That uncle died too early..."

Chen Wangyang knew about this:

Although his father, Chen Xianxian, is nominally the eldest son in the family, he actually had an eldest brother before Chen Xianxian, that is, Chen Wangyang actually had an uncle. It is a pity that this uncle died before his father was born. Passed away from illness...

Thinking of this, Chen Wangyang couldn't help but said:

"Everything is fate, and you can't control it at all. Grandpa Zhang, don't be sad..."
