~13 min read 2,600 words

"My God!" Gao Zhen said in surprise: "It's not close for you to go to work every day, do you take the bus or ride a bike?"

"Ride a motorcycle!" Feng Ermin leaned against the back of the chair, raised his hand to rub his somewhat swollen head: "Jialing's 50 small motorcycle, it's just a bit of suffering in winter."

At this time, Yu Zhan came to the car, Zhou Andong opened the car window: "What's the matter?"

"Chairman, that little girl is still in our car." Yu Zhan asked: "Should I let her down, or..."

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Send the Buddha to the west, ask her where her home is, and you guys send her home."

"Then you guys..." Yu Zhan was a bit worried. After arresting so many underworld bosses here last night, what if there was someone who didn't have eyes to retaliate?

"It's okay!" Zhou Andong said: "After you guys send that little girl home, go straight home."

Wang Wentian followed and said: "There are people here, you guys send that little girl home."

"Alright!" Since Wang Wentian said so, Yu Zhan could only agree, turned around and returned to the Land Cruiser behind.

……………………

Shunyi, at this time it was still a county, and it wouldn't be withdrawn from the county and set up as a district until 1998.

Feng Ermin's home was not far from the west entrance of Bianmin Street. It was a residential area composed of two-story slab buildings. Under Feng Ermin's guidance, Wang Wentian parked the car steadily at the entrance of the alley.

After the three got off the car one after another, Feng Ermin raised his hand and pointed forward: "The third building, first floor, there is a jujube tree in front of the door, not big, my mom planted it the year before last, and I don't know where she got the sapling."

"I know!" Zhou Andong said: "It's too late, Da Zhen and I won't go in, we'll come to visit Auntie tomorrow."

"Good!" Feng Ermin nodded: "Then I'm going back."

Zhou Andong waved his hand and said: "Go!"

Feng Ermin turned around, touched the darkness and entered the house, skillfully felt to turn on the living room light. Because he drank a bit too much, he felt very thirsty at the moment, so he walked to the kitchen, took a bowl from the dish rack, unscrewed the tap to fill a bowl of water, and then drank it with gulps.

At this time, his wife Pei Fengyuan walked out of the bedroom, seeing Feng Ermin return, asked softly: "Why did you come back so late?"

Feng Ermin wiped the corner of his mouth casually with his sleeve, put the water cup on the stove, then let out a long breath, his gaze fell on his wife, and he bared his teeth and smiled.

Seeing Feng Ermin's silly smile, Pei Fengyuan said irritably: "What are you smiling silly about, look at this smell of alcohol on you, who did you drink with again?"

Feng Ermin took Pei Fengyuan's hand, walked to the living room, and leaned against the wall was a dilapidated sofa, the seat cushion on it was severely worn, and the two sat on the sofa.

Feng Ermin looked at his wife, the smile on his face never disappeared: "You know Zhou Andong, right?"

"Zhou Andong?" Pei Fengyuan shook her head: "Don't know!"

"How can you not know Zhou Andong?" Feng Ermin was a bit anxious: "Zhou Andong, it's the chairman of Yugong Group, the Zhou Andong who just donated 1 billion to our country."

"Oh!" Pei Fengyuan suddenly realized, and then suddenly laughed out loud: "You don't want to say that you drank with Zhou Andong tonight, do you?"

Feng Ermin gave a thumbs up, he-he-he laughed: "Not worthy of being my wife, really a divine calculation!"

"You drank how much cat urine, and talked nonsense to me as soon as you got home." Pei Fengyuan rolled her eyes at Feng Ermin, stood up and said: "Alright, it's past twelve o'clock, hurry up and wash, then sleep, maybe in your dreams, you can continue to drink with Zhou Andong."

Feng Ermin grabbed his wife who was about to get up and leave, and pulled her to sit down again: "My hometown is Jiangzhou, you definitely know this, right?"

"Yes, from Tanghezi Village in Jiangzhou, my ears have heard calluses from this." Pei Fengyuan hugged Feng Ermin's arm, her tone gentle: "Ermin, if you really want to go back to your hometown to take a look, you can ask for a few days off, and I will accompany you back."

Feng Ermin took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, then took a deep drag, and slowly exhaled a cloud of smoke: "Let's not talk about going back to the hometown for now, do you know that Zhou Andong is also from Jiangzhou?"

"I know, Jiangzhou Winery, how many people in the whole country don't know this." Pei Fengyuan looked at her man: "Then what can that do? Just because you are both from Jiangzhou, he invited you to drink? There are more than just you from Jiangzhou in the capital, why didn't Zhou Andong invite others to drink? How come, you grew two brains?"

"..."

Feng Ermin looked at his wife speechlessly: "I am from the same village as Zhou Andong, both are from Tanghezi. We are childhood friends, he is only two months older than me."

"I'm not talking nonsense with you." Pei Fengyuan still didn't believe it, stood up and said: "I'm sleepy, going to sleep."

At this time, the door of the north bedroom opened, Feng Ermin's mother Dong Fengying came out: "It's so late, what are you whispering about, why don't you sleep yet?"

"It's your son." Pei Fengyuan said amusedly: "Drank too much, insisted on saying it was Zhou Andong who drank. By the way, it's Zhou Andong from Jiangzhou Winery, it's Yugong Group now."

Dong Fengying was stunned, looked at her son and asked: "Did you really meet Dongzi?"

Pei Fengyuan was completely stunned. She widened her eyes, looking at her mother-in-law in disbelief: "Mom, is this true? Do you really know that Zhou Andong?"

Feng Ermin smiled, proudly: "I said you didn't believe it, now you should believe it, right?"

Dong Fengying smiled and pulled her daughter-in-law, signaling her to sit beside her, and then said softly: "It's more than just knowing, our family and Zhou Andong's family are front and back (street, alley), when they were young, Ermin and Zhou Andong often played together."

"And Gao Zhen!" Feng Ermin said with a smile: "The three of us are the best, tonight it was the three of us drinking together, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years, so we drank a bit too much."

"Gao Zhen?" Dong Fengying asked with some surprise upon hearing this, "Is Da Zhen also in the capital?"

"Yes!" Feng Ermin nodded, took a drag of his cigarette: "You know Rifeng Heating, the one that plays on CCTV every day, Gao Zhen is the boss of Rifeng, but Zhou Andong is the major shareholder."

"They all have prospects, good, good!" Dong Fengying looked very happy: "How did you get in touch?"

Feng Ermin told the whole story one by one: "Mom, tomorrow after work, Brother Dong and Da Zhen said they want to come to visit you and Big Sister!"

Dong Fengying was slightly stunned when she heard this, seemingly a bit surprised, but soon a happy smile bloomed on her face.

Since leaving Tanghezi, she had never been back. To say she didn't miss home would be a lie. After all, that was the place where she had lived for more than half her life. More importantly, her husband and eldest son were buried in Tanghezi. For all these years, she hadn't been able to go to sweep their graves. Every time she thought of this, she couldn't help but wipe tears secretly.

It was just that when the children were in school, she was a woman with two children. Even with the help of her eldest brother, she could only fill her stomach, and she didn't even dare to think about returning to Tanghezi. After the children graduated and started working, there was no time. Then they got married and had children, so where would there be spare money to return to their hometown.

Even if the capital was not too far from Jiangzhou, it would definitely cost a lot of money to go back. Dong Fengying, as a mother, naturally felt sorry for the children's hardship, so even if she missed home again, she could only endure it silently. She just thought, when her body couldn't do it one day, it would be enough to go back and take a look.

"I'll make dumplings for them tomorrow!" People from the hometown came, and they were children she watched grow up, Dong Fengying was indescribably happy in her heart: "Ermin, when you notify your Big Sister tomorrow, let her stop by her mother-in-law's place to catch a big rooster."

After speaking, Dong Fengying stood up and stretched, "Alright, it's one o'clock, hurry up and sleep."

Pei Fengyuan was pulled by Feng Ermin back to the bedroom, already lying on the bed, her mind was still a bit messy, unable to believe that Feng Ermin was a childhood friend of Zhou Andong.

"Ermin!" Pei Fengyuan lay on her side facing Feng Ermin, her arm hugging his waist: "I feel like I'm dreaming, such a big figure as Zhou Andong, how could he be your childhood friend?"

Feng Ermin said helplessly: "Wife, where am I worse, why can't I have a childhood friend like Zhou Andong?"

"Oh, I didn't mean that!" Pei Fengyuan wanted to explain, but didn't know how to explain, turned over with some shame: "Forget it, don't say it, sleep!"

……………………

Zhou Andong's car drove steadily on the road. Gao Zhen, sitting in the passenger seat, twisted his body and looked at Zhou Andong sitting in the back: "Going to see Auntie tomorrow, what are you planning to take?"

Zhou Andong pondered and said: "To take things for Auntie, it's better to take something practical. Cigarettes, alcohol, and tea are not considered." Zhou Andong said while pondering: "Let's do this, you take a few buckets of soybean oil, I'll take a few bags of rice and flour, and buy some food for the children."

Gao Zhen naturally wouldn't oppose Zhou Andong's words: "Then what food to buy for the children?"

"Just buy what you see! Tomorrow you ask someone to go to Grand Mart to take a look, and help me buy the things too. Remember, buy two copies of snacks, Big Sister also has children."

Saying this, Zhou Andong felt the air conditioning was a bit cold, raised his hand to open the car window: "Wentian, turn off the air conditioning."

Gao Zhen agreed: "After work, I'll go to the Woolen Mill to find you?"

"Okay!" Zhou Andong nodded: "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, aren't you getting married on May 1st? The date is set, why did it suddenly postpone?"

"My mother-in-law's situation, I should have mentioned it to you before." Gao Zhen sighed deeply, and then continued, "My father-in-law whom I have never met, when my wife and sister-in-law were young, abandoned the mother and daughter three and ran away."

"But my mother-in-law's feelings for my father-in-law have always been the same, as firm as a rock. I have repeatedly advised her to move to the capital to live with us, but she has always refused to agree, the reason is that she is worried that my father-in-law won't be able to find her when he comes back."

Speaking of this, Gao Zhen sighed helplessly again: "Just when we set the wedding date and prepared to send invitations, my mother-in-law suddenly called and said she got news of my father-in-law and was going to find him. As for when she can come back, she can't say clearly herself, just let us get married if we should, don't wait for her."

Gao Zhen was full of helplessness: "You say what kind of thing this is, such a big thing as our wedding, but my wife's mother can't come to attend the wedding, does this look like words? My wife is not without a mother, right?

And this is too unfair to my wife, her mother didn't come to attend her wedding, I'm afraid it will become her lifelong regret. So, I discussed with my wife and postponed the wedding date. As for the specific time, it depends on when my mother-in-law comes back."

Zhou Andong also shook his head helplessly. At this time, the car stopped, Wang Wentian said: "General Manager Gao, here!"

Gao Zhen pushed the car door and got off: "I'll go to the Woolen Mill to find you after work tomorrow."

Zhou Andong waved his hand and said to Wang Wentian: "Let's go!"

……………………

The next morning, the sky was a bit gloomy, as if covered by a thin gray veil, but this didn't affect people's mood, because the high temperature for several consecutive days finally eased, and the air became cool.

Zhou Andong, like usual, finished washing and came to the courtyard of the second entrance. Then he saw Old Zhou who was exercising, walking back and forth in the courtyard with slow and firm steps. Although the steps were still a bit slow, compared to before, his legs were obviously more powerful.

Zhou Andong walked over quickly and observed: "Dad, how do you feel?"

Old Zhou stopped, stood in place, his back straight, the smile on his face was very brilliant, and he looked in a very good mood: "Great, never better."

Old Zhou waved his fist excitedly, and then said: "I don't need a cane now, I walk around the alley and don't feel so tired, it feels very relaxed."

Zhou Andong also said happily: "When I hold the wedding, you won't even need a cane."

Old Zhou nodded repeatedly, the smile on his face more brilliant: "If I make a speech on stage, take a photo, it's definitely no problem."

Saying this, Old Zhou walked to the big tree, leaned gently against the tree trunk, then took a deep breath, and slowly said.

"After you finish the wedding, your mom and I won't come back."

Zhou Andong wanted to say something when he heard this sentence, but finally nodded: "Okay, if you don't want to come back, don't come back. Whenever you want to come back, you and mom come back again."

The two chatted for a while, Yuan Liying came: "Why did you get up so early today?"

"Couldn't sleep so I got up!" Zhou Andong stretched: "By the way, I met Feng Ermin!"

"Feng Ermin?" Yuan Liying was stunned, then asked: "Feng Baocai's second son?"

"Yes!" Zhou Andong briefly told the story: "I'll go see Auntie Dong tonight."

Yuan Liying said with emotion: "Feng Baocai and his eldest son left for more than ten years, and Ermin moved away with his mother for more than ten years, I didn't expect to meet in such a big capital."

"Uncle, Auntie!" Gu Bing walked over yawning: "Is breakfast ready, I'm hungry."

Zhou Andong snorted: "Besides eating, what else do you know?"

"Man is iron, rice is steel, if you don't eat a meal, you'll be hungry." Gu Bing said reasonably: "If you have the ability, don't eat." ===== CHAPTER 2373 =====
