Chapter 4

Parsed with an automated reader. The content accuracy is not guranteed.

Wang Licheng came home from get off work and finished eating

and was ready to go out to digest. There is no entertainment program in this

era and the home is too boring so it is better to go out for a walk.

"Licheng, wait, Mom, let me tell you something."

Liu Fengzhen pulled her son into her room and pointed out

the pile of things on the ground to her son.

"Why so many things?”, There were fruit drinks and tin

cans, nothing like what his mother would buy. And these things shouldn't be

cheap.

"Didn't you save the two children the day before yesterday?

Their family sent this to thank you. I didn't plan to accept but they said they

would not feel at ease if they didn't accept them.”

"Take this and eat it, and I'll tell you about the

other things." He knew that his mother didn't know how to read, these were

not cheap things and his mother should have never seen them before.

There were a few jars of malted milk which he had never seen

before. A box of Jianlibao, this thing has seen photos in the past life.

Military canned food, even this thing, it seems that someone in their family is

in the army and the official position should be not small. There are ten cans

of pork, five cans of beef, and five cans of fish. There are 20 cans in total.

There is still root ginseng hidden in the can, which is a good thing. Nowadays

ginseng should be wild, and they are people with status so the ginseng will not

be bad!

These things must be more than 90 bucks. It seems they

really want to thank him.

But also, Wang Licheng saved two lives, no matter how much

more things they are still worthless.

He asked his mother to collect the ginseng and other things

to give to his sisters and he carried the carbonated drinks to the room. These

things are really heavy, how did the two women bring them over.

These things were bought by Wang Licheng with his life and they

should be distributed to his sisters. As for Jianlibao, this is not a good

thing. It is enough to harm him. He had never drank this thing in his previous

life, so he just gave it a try.

He had already gone upstairs, and he did not intend to go down

immediately. I read a book and then went to take a bath and fell asleep.

He used to live in a dead house but at that time there was

an Internet, a computer and a mobile phone to pass the time and now there are

only books left in his hand.

Wang Licheng is not a person who likes to study and there

are only a few mechanic books in the drawer that he bought after he started

working. He thought about it too; if Wang Licheng loved studying, he might have

been admitted to university.

This kind of day went by smoothly for a week. He called ‘Mom’

last night, but Mom didn't respond.

He was a little lost, it turned out that he was the only one

who was wondering whether to call the original mother or not. His mother didn't

care at all.

Today is Saturday off, so boring. I don't want to move or go

out, what should I do?

"Licheng, I'm going to Qiumei's house to see your nephew,

do you want to go or not."

Liu Fengzhen recently noticed some changes in her son. Her

son doesn't like to go out. Could it be that last week's incident affected him?

It shouldn't be; I haven't seen my son watching TV these days. She went

upstairs quietly last night and saw her son reading a book. The last thing my

son loved was reading books.

She was going to her younger daughter's house today and sent

her the malted milk essence and cans. Seeing that her son had nothing to do at

home, she asked casually. In the past, she wouldn't even ask casually and he

wouldn't see other people on weekends.

"Going, I'll change clothes right away."

Sooner or later, his family would have to get in touch; with

his mother on the side to get acquainted first, so not as to deal with it

alone.

The son seems to have changed his temper.

Wang Licheng changed into a white shirt, black pants and

black leather shoes. The original owner loves this pair of leather shoes so much

and he was reluctant to wear them at ordinary times. When he went home, they

will be wiped clean immediately, put on shoe polish and put them in the

cabinet, for fear of sticking to dust.

Soak the head of the chicken coop with water and comb it out

before going out.

Wang Licheng's current height is 175 cm, which is relatively

tall in this era. The body is very good and the body is full of muscles.

Sometimes the original body will go back to their high school, see someone playing

on the basketball court and he will also join.

Yuanshen played well and others were all willing to let

Yuanshen make up the number of people.

He dreamed of Wang Licheng playing in high school and

guessed that the original body should like to play. His favorite sport in his

previous life was the NBA, only watching and not playing. To say that the only balls that

can be played are billiards and tennis is not bad.

Wang Licheng's abdominal muscles seem to be in danger and he

really can't find an exercise that he knows and can keep fit.

Let's talk about his face.

There are photos framed by glass photo frames on the cabinet

in my mother's room. There are three or four photo frames, and each frame

contains many photos, most of them in black and white and only five in color.

The one in the center is a family portrait in Black and

White. The parents sat in the middle, the three sisters stood behind, and he,

Wang Licheng, sat on his father's lap. 1973 is written in the corner of the

photo.

In the photo, he is six or seven years old. The faces of

several sisters have not opened yet. They feel that their faces have not been

washed clean, and they are dirty and not as good-looking as they are now.

My father is a man who looks a little thin, not strong, not

good-looking but not ugly, and his eyes are too small to have heroism.

My mother was 33 when this photo was taken. She has big eyes

and her smile is natural and beautiful. At that time my mother was considered a

beautiful woman. Even if she is 50 years old now, she does not look old but she

is a little richer.

Wang Licheng's appearance is his mother’s, with big eyes and

a straight nose. His face looks like his father's Chinese character face.

Father's face is good, but he is too thin, there is no flesh on his face; all

the bones are highlighted, which looks a bit strange.

He has big earlobes, and people are blessed with big

earlobes.

The only dissatisfaction is that the lower lip is a little thick;

it would be perfect if it could be thinner.

He is still very satisfied with his current figure and

appearance. One thing is that his beard grows too fast and needs to be shaved

every day. The first time he was lazy and didn't make foam, he scratched his

face. Fortunately, I'm used to it now but it's too troublesome.

He helped his mother carry things on foot to the third

sister's house. The third sister's house was in the Armed Forces Department and

it was only two hundred meters away from their house.

The third brother-in-law's father is the deputy minister of

the Armed Forces. The third brother-in-law graduated from high school and

joined the army for three years. After retiring from the army, he returned to

the Armed Forces to work.

The third brother-in-law is called Peng Chengmin, 36 years

old, and the third sister is 35 years old. The two were in free love for more

than a year before getting married.

When they got married, the parents didn't agree.

Even though Peng Chengmin's third sister was 5 years old,

his mother was no longer there and he had no relatives in Pucheng. Both have

jobs, and who will take care of the child when the child is born. Peng

Chengmin's father didn't retire either, so he couldn't have the third sister go

home and take the children without work!

Their marriage was delayed until 1987 for various reasons.

After the marriage the third sister's job changed and it was his father-in-law

who helped to change it. She now sits in the office every day and is no longer

a worker. Her work is relatively easy and she can take care of her children

while going to work.

Their family lived in a house in the armed part, a newly

built building with five floors. Their home was on the third floor, which was

the best floor. The third sister's father-in-law has his own house and the

third brother-in-law has another set, so he lives separately from his father.

But it's all in the same yard, so it's convenient to do anything.

The third sister and father-in-law would come over for

dinner every night and leave immediately after eating.

The third sister gave birth to a son named Peng Jian at the

end of 1988.

When he and his mother climbed to the second floor, they

heard heart-wrenching cries from upstairs.

"Hongmei, Hongmei."

Mom shouted and knocked on the door. The boy from the third sister's

house was still crying and the voice was getting closer.

The door opened, and the third sister held the door opened

for them by her son.

"Yo, Li Cheng is here too, rare guest."

The third sister has been married for more than two years

and this is the third time Wang Licheng has come to her house.

"Why are you crying so hard, come let grandma hug

him."

"He just fell off the sofa." She originally let her

son sit on the sofa and play but she heard the cry and came out of the bathroom

and found his son sleeping on the ground cry.

"Didn't you look at it?"

"No, I was washing clothes in the bathroom, and I

didn't wash the dirty clothes for several days." Usually I don't have

time, so I can only save it to wash when I have a rest.

"Your husband, has he gone out?"

"Well, his comrades-in-arms made an appointment and

went out early in the morning."

"Come on, Mom will do the laundry with you and let your

brother take care of the child."

Liu Fengzhen put her grandson in the seat In Wang Licheng's

arms on the sofa; she entered the bathroom

with her daughter.

What happened, he was still observing the third sister's

house, now the mother threw the child to him. They are also really at ease to

let him take the child.

In Wang Licheng's memory, he had never brought any children

and he had never brought any of his sister's children.

"Come on, boy, let's hear it, uncle." He supported

his little nephew's armpits with both hands, letting him stand on his lap.

"Qiu, ha"

"Uncle, uncle."

"Autumn, autumn."

"Uncle."

"Qiuqiu."

Wang Licheng corrected it several times, but it was still

"Qiuqiu". It should be still young, how to teach pronunciation is not

standard.

When Wang Hongmei and her mother went to the balcony to dry

clothes, they passed the living room and saw Wang Licheng tease his son

giggling.

"Mom, Li Cheng is almost 25 years old; doesn't he want

to get married yet?" When she saw her brother this time, she felt that he

had changed a lot. When he used to let him look after the child, he sat next to

him and didn't care about the child. The sisters also thought that the younger

brother did not like children.

Looking at the way my brother is teasing the child today; I

can talk to him about getting married and having a child.

"It's not like you didn't know about the year

before."

In 1988, his father had just gone.

His father was most worried about his son's marriage. Liu

Fengzhen discussed it with his three daughters and wanted to introduce someone

to his son. Let's talk first, until the end of the year when he is of age, he

can get married directly.

She said he disagreed. The three daughters also asked him

and he disagreed. They even started with their son-in-laws, but they couldn't

talk to their son. The son even got angry in front of her and her three

daughters.

After that time, she did not dare to mention the blind date

in front of her son.

"It's not the same. Maybe Dad just left and he was in a

bad mood. Mom didn't see that my brother just made your grandson giggle. Maybe

he has that idea now."

Liu Fengzhen thought about it, maybe that was the case.

"Okay, I'll discuss it with your eldest and second

sisters next time. I think your brother may have really grown up this time. He's

been reading at home recently and he hasn't seen it out; and the malted milk

essence I brought here, your brother also asked me to send you the canned and

meat."

"My brother was already very smart but now that he's

sensible, it's even better."

Her brother stood up and the sisters also had confidence in

their in-law's house.

My younger brother has been smart since he was a child but I

don't know why he can't read. When Dad had an accident, he went to the factory alone.

At that time, the mother was sick; she was just pregnant;

the children of the eldest sister and the second sister were small; and the

sisters had to take care of the children at home and went to the hospital to

take care of the mother. There's no time to deal with my father's business at

all.

Fortunately, I have a younger brother and I have come up

with a good way to work age.
