No one else at the table spoke, and Jiang Yunshen was afraid of avoiding this kind of topic. For the first time, he took the initiative to take two dumplings from his own plate and gave them to Jiang Peiyan, pretending to be a loving father, and said with a smile: "Eat more , I think you have lost weight." He is not good at this kind of interaction between father and son, and he rarely takes the initiative to care about Jiang Peiyan, but at this time, in order to prevent the old lady from bringing the topic to him, he can only pretend like this .

What flashed in Jiang Peiyan's lowered eyes, Jiang Yunshen naturally didn't notice, he had already fulfilled his obligations to this adopted son, and he really didn't have the mood and energy to teach such a young man, you said he had weak feelings Or it doesn't matter if he is indifferent, he will be like this in this life.

Seeing that Jiang Peiyan ate the two dumplings very obediently, Jiang Yunshen smiled with satisfaction. Although Jiang Peiyan was a little cold, but fortunately he was very obedient, which saved him a lot of worry.

In fact, Jiang Yunshen really thought too much, Mrs. Jiang just took a look at him, his boss has been here for how many years, he is almost forty, and he doesn't even have a stable partner. I brought it to you in a few words, smoother than a loach, Madam Jiang didn't bother to care about him long ago, she was often pissed off in the early years, and then she got used to it, just this kind of sentimental Even if the embryo is married, it will definitely not stop. When the daughter-in-law makes trouble again, the house will not be turned upside down, and Mrs. Jiang can only comfort herself in this way.

Jiang Huihe didn't answer. On such a festive day today, he didn't want to spoil everyone's appetite because of this topic, so he followed the old lady's wishes. At that time, he would have a hundred ways to get out of his body. The success of the old lady's plan is a little bit of filial piety that he can do as a man and child.

The old man Jiang Zhonglin is sitting at the main seat. All the old people want to have a grandson, and he is no exception. This old friend surnamed Yang is a classmate of his party school. There are two sons and daughters in the family, and the daughter is considered old. She has always been loved by her parents He is quite satisfied with this girl Yang Qingwan. He met her at a classmate reunion years ago. She is pretty, generous and sensible. Her job is a lawyer and she often goes out. Only recently did she decide to settle down in the provincial capital and get along with her. The second child is quite a good match, and she is not too young this year. She is 26 years old. Yang Yuepeng, his father, also intends to facilitate this marriage with the Jiang family. He knows everything about his son, regardless of sexuality. The most outstanding descendants in the bloodline.

Jiang Huihe's grandfather, Jiang Shuji, experienced the Civil War between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party of China and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. He joined the army on the battlefield when he was a teenager. Later, he became a senior general of the national army because of his outstanding record and excellent leadership. Jiang Shuji thought over and over again, and decisively led his subordinates to revolt and seek refuge, which led to the peaceful liberation of the place where he was at that time. This is also traceable in history. Jiang Shuji was the commander of the military region at the time, but he was seriously injured on the battlefield. Year after year is not as good as the year, plus missing the other two children, passed away in their fifties, Jiang Zhonglin was the second child at home, and the eldest brother Jiang Zhongsen was stranded in Guangdong for some reason when his grandfather rebelled. At that time, he was still a The teachers of the Whampoa Military Academy were airlifted to Taiwan at the end of [-], accompanied by Jiang Shuji's third daughter, Jiang Hui.

After a few years of policy relaxation, Jiang Hui and Jiang Zhongsen moved to the United States before they had the opportunity to return to China to visit their old father. At that time, Jiang Shuji was paralyzed in bed, and he couldn't even tell who he was, but at least he was conscious in his heart. The sons and daughters were reunited, and they closed their eyes peacefully the next day. Jiang Hui is now a writer living in the United States, and Jiang Zhongsen also has a career in Taiwan. They each have a pair of children. It may be because the current situation was turbulent at that time, and marriage was very difficult. In the evening, it is not like Jiang Zhonglin has a group of sons and daughters.

Jiang Zhonglin put down the spoon and wiped his hands. He would not force Jiang Huihe to find a woman to marry and have children immediately, but he was going to decide on a grandson.

"Huihe, stay home for two more days this time, I have something to talk to you about."

Jiang Huihe can turn a deaf ear to the words of the rest of the family, but the old man must not. He is now old and has diabetes. If he gets angry, he will be put in confinement at least, and at worst he will suffer some flesh and blood. If he shouts "See if I don't break your leg", it's no joke.

"I know Dad."

The old man nodded, and went upstairs with the support of the housekeeper. Afterwards, Mrs. Jiang also went back to the bedroom to catch up on sleep. Everyone at the dining table finally relaxed.

Jiang Mingxin studied in the United States and has already obtained a doctorate. He wears a pair of silver-rimmed glasses and a standard three-piece suit. The shoulders are narrow, the waist is long and the legs are long, and the eyelashes against the sky are the family emblem.

Jiang Qianru and her husband Jian Rucheng went upstairs to rest. Jiang Yunshen crossed his long legs, put down his chopsticks and stood up.

"I said, second child, you have entered the dragon's pond and tiger's lair when you came back this time. The old lady dug a hole, just waiting for you to jump in. I will mourn for you first. You see, I have already practiced well now, old man and old lady It is estimated that I have completely let go of me, life should be so happy."

As he spoke, he took out a cigarette and held it in his hand, put it under his nose and smelled it.

Jiang Mingxin frowned, "Don't smoke here, smoke outside, we will all suck your exhaust."

Jiang Yun laughed deeply, "You are really getting more and more hairy, I smoke at home and we never talk about me."

Jiang Peiyan continued to eat calmly, swallowed the last dumpling, and slowly wiped his mouth with a napkin, "Dad, I'm going upstairs to sleep, so don't stay up too late."

Jiang Yunshen waved his hand, "Understood."

There were only three brothers left in the dining room. Mrs. Song removed the things from the dining table. Jiang Huihe and Jiang Yunshen sat on the sofa. Your silhouette."

Jiang Yunshen raised his eyebrows and smiled, the corners of his eyes and brows were extremely bright, with a hint of charm and provocation, "There are some things at hand that can't be dealt with, so the delay to your trip will be postponed."

Jiang Huihe smiled, "I advise you to restrain yourself, it's not unreasonable for my mother to stare at me this time, and one of her old friends has a golden grandson a few days ago, I will definitely not marry a woman , because the gender is different, but you are different, and Mingxin has not yet arrived, and mom will finally be able to count on you to give his grandson a hug."

"Oh, don't scare me. Only fools get married." As he thought of something, he moved closer to Jiang Huihe's side, lifted his long legs in trousers and put them on Jiang Huihe's lap, and rubbed them vaguely , with a sexy hoarse voice in a low voice, "Do you want to consider trying with me, brother taboo must be very exciting."

Jiang Mingxin, who was drinking water at the side, coughed violently. The water in the cup spilled all over the tea table. He was speechless to this idiot brother. He controlled himself not to roll his eyes indecently. He took off his glasses and wiped them. The splashed water droplets, got up and went upstairs, Jiang Yunshen became interested. He liked to tease the serious and rigid Jiang Mingxin since he was a child, raised his eyebrows, and said in a tired voice: "My sensitive zone is the belly button, you must press it hard and hard. Suck——" There was a "bang" sound from upstairs, and there was a loud slamming sound of the door.

Jiang Hui and leisurely said: "I have an age limit, you are too old."

Jiang Yunshen instantly petrified.

The people who came to Jiang's family to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year came according to the batch, Jiang Yunshen hid early, and the rest of Jiang Huihe and Jiang Mingxin followed their parents to greet and send them off for most of the day, and the two brothers quit in the afternoon Yes, Jiang Mingxin hid in his room to read the research report. Jiang Hui and he wandered to the glass greenhouse. The greenhouse is very large and there are many rare flower varieties planted in it, but the most complete one is the rose, which Mrs. Jiang likes the most. The two kinds of Longsha gemstones and the purple robe jade belt occupy the best position in the greenhouse. The Longsha gemstones were originally planted in the front courtyard, but were moved into the greenhouse by Mrs. Jiang in winter, and now they can still be seen sparsely. The two fallen flowers are blooming enthusiastically, a large piece of cornflower and baby's breath are planted in the corner, and there is a pool leading to the flower room, in which a few precious koi are raised, swimming around with their tails flapping.

Jiang Huihe lay on the chaise longue among the flowers with his eyes closed as if he had fallen asleep. When he heard someone coming in, he thought it was his family. It wasn't until the sound of high-heeled shoes getting closer that he realized something was wrong. Mom and Qianru It is impossible to walk around outside in high heels, so the most likely guests are the guests at home.

Before I opened my eyes, I heard a soft and delicate voice with a slight smile: "Did I bother you?"

Jiang Huihe sat up, and the girl in front of her was tall and elegant, with willow eyebrows and almond eyes, light makeup on her oval face, her hair neatly pulled up, and a blue dress that made her look elegant and refined, a very beautiful girl.

"You are Yang Qingwan?"

The girl smiled calmly, "You can call me Qingwan, the second elder brother of the Jiang family."

Jiang Hui and Wan Er pointed to the seat beside them, "I remember you as a teenage girl, but I didn't expect you to be so beautiful."

Yang Qingwan accepted it generously, "Second brother, you have changed a lot, but you are still so charming. There must be a lot of girls chasing you."

Jiang Huihe shook his head, "You should follow Qianru and call me Second Brother. Second Brother sounds weird. Where do you work now?"

"It hasn't stabilized yet. I'm working as a legal consultant in my brother's company for the time being. Let's wait until the Chinese New Year is over."

"It's okay, you have such a solid foundation, you don't have to worry about finding a good job."

Yang Qingwan blinked, "Then how about I go to the second brother's company, does the second brother's lawyer team need manpower?"

"With your conditions, you can find better ones. I've wronged you." Regarding these potential troubles, Jiang Huihe never left any trouble for himself.

Yang Qingwan's smile faded, "Second brother, you are very modest, oh yes, my aunt asked me to call you back for dinner, let's go."

Yang Qingwan and Jiang Hui came out of the glass greenhouse together, Mrs. Jiang saw it from a distance, hurried back to the living room, and whispered to Jiang Zhonglin: "I think the two of you get along very well, Qingwan is a girl who knows how to advance and retreat." , the second child should not hate it."

"Don't just follow along and let the second child get in touch with you. In the past, you've never done anything wrong."

Mrs. Jiang snorted, "I'm not doing it for his own good. The second child's genes can't be wasted. It's better to give birth to six or seven children, and call me grandma around me. Think about the situation..."

Shen Danshu, who was far away in Songyuan, shuddered violently for no reason, and asked Shen Tianming to add another pot of hot water into the tub, then stood on tiptoes on the bench to rub Shen Danshu's back, touched Shen Danshu's shoulder with his small hand, and said in surprise : "Dad, you have a red mole here!"

Shen Danshu let out a "hmm", hung one leg wrapped in plastic wrap outside the bucket, splashed some water on his body, it was really cold!

Yang Qingwan stayed there that day, and Jiang Huihe took her around the next day. The two chatted casually, and they looked like old friends who had known each other for many years. This is just from a friend's point of view, seeing Mrs. Jiang's cheerful appearance, Jiang Huihe really couldn't bear to tell her that he would never be able to be hard on women in his life.

After Yang Qingwan left, Jiang Huihe rushed back to Songyuan by plane the next day, and was delayed by some big and small affairs during the return period. The branch in the United States had a little trouble because of the bank loan problem. Jiang Huihe sat in the middle of the night. The plane rushed over, and I attended another fashion reception, and it was more than half a month later when I came back.

Shen Danshu removed the plaster, and now he can't do strenuous movements, he can't even run and jump, he can only walk slowly with a limp, staying at home for almost two months, he's bored out of his mind , There is always a feeling that the muscles are slowly shrinking. After the plaster removal, he can go to the ground and he can't stay idle. He wanders around the village all day long. Dongbaolai and Dashiling are both hilly areas. One by one, some can be connected into pieces and not very large, unlike the plains where the vast land is suitable for farming, and developed agriculture can make farmers rich. Most of the villagers here are self-produced and sold. Some of the sorghum, corn, and soybeans are stored, and some are kept to feed pigs. Silkworms are raised on the mountain, and silkworm seedlings are released in summer. In autumn, silkworm cocoons can be picked. Silkworm cocoons sell well. Ten thousand is not a huge amount, but it is already very good for farmers.

Shen Danshu took Huohu to the town to catch the big fair, one big and one small arrived in the town in a carriage, Shen Danshu limped and led Huohu into the market, there were not many people in the market, and there were many vendors crowded outside the vegetable market The small gadgets stall sold some colorful bracelets and Buddhist beads and other small jewelry. Shen Danshu went to the seafood stall to pick up a silver carp, and then went upstairs to the furniture store to ask how the TV cabinet ordered the day before yesterday was doing. The carpenter was Mr. Ma from the same village, the cabinet was already finished, the only thing left to do was to paint it, Shen Dan set a date for bringing it, and led Mu Huo out of the gate of the market.

When passing those stalls, I saw a boy huddled up in a corner with his sleeves rolled up. On the wooden board in front of him were some handkerchiefs and sleeves, and several sets of bright red pillowcases.

Shen Danshu went forward to look at it, all of them were embroidered by hand, the colors and styles were good, the embroidery was very vivid, the mandarin ducks on the pillowcase and even the charm in the eyeballs were delicately outlined, as if they were about to flap their wings and fly up Similarly, handkerchiefs and sleeves are also good, they are all made of silk thread, elegant peony flowers and delicate azaleas. Pillowcases are all machine-printed and mass-produced. Handmade ones are very expensive even if they are available, but they are sold very cheaply by teenagers. A handkerchief is only two yuan, and sleeve covers are three yuan. Pillowcases are bought in pairs for 25 yuan, and singles are [-] yuan. pieces.

The boy was only as big as Luo Junwen. He was tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his body was very thin. His face was flushed from the cold. Seeing Shen Danshu picking and choosing, he said, "If you buy more, I'll give you a cheaper one. Five handkerchiefs a dozen." , I’ll sell you nine yuan, and two pairs of sleeves for five yuan.”

Shen Danshu laughed, how could he use handkerchiefs for so many days, and how can he still use handkerchiefs now, but Shen Danshu still nodded, "Okay, a dozen handkerchiefs, four pairs of sleeves, are there any smaller sleeves?"

The boy picked out a pair, which had a pattern of a horse embroidered on it, which happened to be what Muddy liked.

"Give me four pillowcases too, all of them will be red."

The boy quickly put it on for him, "99."

Shen Danshu gave him one hundred, and casually picked up a small pony pendant carved out of wood, "You don't need to look for one yuan, just give this to me."

The boy hesitated, then nodded.

When he got home, Shen Danshu showed the things to Father Shen. Father Shen picked up a handkerchief and measured it, "This embroidery skill looks familiar. There is an old woman behind our village who can do this. Her family A granddaughter will too, where did you buy it?"

"At the gate of the market, the seller is a boy, the same age as Luo Junwen."

Father Shen nodded knowingly, "It's probably the grandson of the old lady. He dropped out of school last year and stayed at home. When he has nothing to do, he went to the market to set up a stall to sell things."

"Why did you drop out of school?"

"The family couldn't afford it. My son was in a car accident two years ago when he went to the Daoteng small business in the south. He was not rescued. The daughter-in-law ran away with someone later, and the old lady was left with her siblings to live."

"Doesn't the school provide assistance? I remember that the high school has implemented a poverty alleviation and student assistance plan. It can help to some extent."

"The grandson has a backbone, and the old lady has been in poor health, so the medical expenses will cost a sum of money. It's not as simple as you think."

Shen Danshu went to the aunt's house to see it once. The boy went up the mountain to collect firewood. There were only the old lady and her granddaughter at home. After watching the people go back to the house, Shen Danshu asked Muhu to sneak into the yard and pressed 500 yuan with stones by the well. .

After the beginning of spring, construction of Jiang Huihe's hot spring clubhouse officially started. The foundation of the construction site has been laid, and a professional designer has been hired to design a sketch of the clubhouse. Jiang Huihe will go there in his free time. I still want to create opportunities to meet Shen Danshu more often.

The weather began to warm up in March. It was hot at noon. Shen Danshu changed his thick padded jacket into a sweater, put on a cotton jacket, and led him to the pasture for a walk. Unexpectedly, when he came back in the evening, he caught a cold. Shouting dizzily, Shen Danshu carried the little guy to the clinic in the town for an injection. Shen Tianming happened to go to the city to deliver the goods and hadn't come back yet. Shen Danshu could only carry the little guy out of the village to see if he could get a taxi. One day, Jiang Hui, who was progressing on the construction site, ran into each other.
