Chapter 142

Just as Secretary Secretary Wang Cai finished speaking, a "pop" sound was heard.

It turned out that the old lady of the Xu family, who was pouring water for the guests, lost her focus and didn't hold it steady. The thermos fell to the ground, and hot water and the inner liner splashed everywhere.

Xu Shuxiang didn't care that this was a thermos she had just bought and hurriedly went over to support her, "Mother, are you okay?"

Xu Yunyun also hurriedly picked up the broom and dustpan to clean up.

The old lady shook her head, but the man's mother was a bit angry, covering her thumping chest, "Startling people, scaring someone to death!"

Xu Cunmao was also very excited. He called his nephew, "Xiao Yang, you come with me to pick up your second aunt. Mother and eldest sister, you wait at home."

"Wait a minute!" The man's mother wouldn't have it. The engagement was halfway through, and the head of the family was leaving. What kind of thing was this? "Let's settle things first, and then we'll go home, and you can wait for your relatives."

Xu Cunmao said in a dilemma, "Nannan's mother, this sister of mine has been lost for twenty years. Allow me to go see her first."

"Good fellow, twenty years! Then you must have endless things to say. How much longer do we have to wait? No, settle things now."

Xu Cunmao's wife hurriedly said, "Nannan's mother, how about this? I'll talk to you."

"You talk? Are you the head of this family?" Nannan's mother stared at the other party's lame leg with some disdain.

Seeing her attitude, Xu Cunmao was also a bit angry, "Everything will be discussed after I bring my second sister back. Talk or not, it's up to you."

Nannan's mother chuckled, "This is what you said. With our family's conditions, you won't be able to find one even if you look with a lantern in the future!"

The man named Nannan who was on the blind date hurriedly pulled his mother's sleeve. He was still very satisfied with Xu Yunyun.

His mother hurriedly gave him a wink. I'm playing hard to get. Don't worry, they are in a hurry to marry off their daughter. As soon as we leave, they will definitely chase after us.

Afterward, they were about to leave. The matchmaker still wanted to persuade them again. I know you want to suppress the maiden's family, but that's enough. Damn it, I still want to earn the commission today!

As they were about to leave, Xu Cunmao called Secretary Secretary Wang Cai and was about to set off. He thought of something and exhorted his wife, "Old woman, prepare some food."

The old lady of the Xu family also asked, "Secretary, how many people did Shufen and the others bring?"

"Oh, five. Son-in-law, children, the whole family came."

Hearing that her second daughter had started a family and had three children, the old lady's eyes turned red with relief.

Xu Cunmao was a bit worried. So many people! He weighed the food in his house and finally gritted his teeth, "Old woman, kill a chicken!"

Although his wife felt a bit distressed, she nodded. The two younger children in his family were overjoyed when they heard this. They hadn't eaten meat even during the New Year, but they didn't expect to eat it after the New Year!

Thank you, Second Aunt!

Xu Cunmao asked again, "How old are the children of my second sister's family?"

"One is about the same age as Yunyun, and one is about the same age as Xiao Yang."

"And the other one? Aren't there five people?"

"Right, your sister, brother-in-law, two children," Secretary Secretary Wang Cai suddenly slapped his forehead. Just now he was busy watching the show and forgot the most important thing, "Oh, and a driver."

"A driver?"

"A driver!"

The blind date team that had already walked out of the house all stopped.

Secretary Secretary Wang Cai's voice rose quite a bit, "Right, Da Mao, this sister of yours is not simple. There is a driver driving a jeep to send them here. You know what a jeep is, right? Before the New Year, the big leader from the province came to the town to inspect, and that was the kind of car he drove!"

Hearing that Xu Cunmao's second sister was actually sent by a jeep, all the onlookers in the village started discussing. What kind of person could be qualified to ride in a car?

It seems that this brother-in-law of Xu Cunmao is not simple. He must be either rich or noble!

So after Xu Cunmao left with the secretary with a head full of question marks, the blind date team led by Nannan's mother killed their way back, and their attitude took a 180-degree turn. She even smiled and wanted to help Yunyun's mother catch the chicken.

On the other side, the jeep drove to the village branch and couldn't continue driving. There was no good road ahead, so they could only walk.

Fortunately, Xu Shufen recognized that the secretary's wife, Cai Feng, was her childhood playmate. Although the two were the same age, Xu Shufen had been raised too well by Wei Jiefang and felt ten years younger than the other party.

Cai Feng was excited and asked her husband to hurry to Xu Cunmao's house to notify them. Wei Ming and the others also wanted to follow to see, but Secretary Secretary Wang Cai had short legs and ran very fast, so they couldn't keep up.

Afterward, Cai Feng affectionately pulled Xu Shufen, looked at her in her new clothes, and asked, "Shufen, I know you are in a hurry, but don't be in a hurry first. Tell me, where have you been for these twenty years? What does your man do?"

She saw that Wei Jiefang was dressed quite extraordinarily, and there was a fountain pen cap exposed in his upper pocket. He was clearly a leader.

Xu Shufen was in no mood to talk about that. She was now eager to return home, thinking only of her family.

"Let's talk as we walk. Don't let my father and the others wait too anxiously." Xu Shufen pulled Cai Feng and asked her to lead the way.

Cai Feng said, "Your father has been gone for many years."

"Ah!"

Wei Jiefang, who wanted to catch up with Secretary Secretary Wang Cai in front, hurriedly ran back to support his wife, and Wei Ming stopped chasing.

This news was indeed a big blow to Xu Shufen. Supported by Lao Lao Lao Wei, she asked again, "Then my mother?"

"Oh, Auntie's body is still quite strong." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Wei Ming was especially happy. In his previous life, they searched for relatives later, and his grandmother had already passed away. In this life, he finally made up for some regrets.

Cai Feng continued, "Your brother and sister are both doing well. Today your niece is meeting her prospective in-laws, and plus you are back. Isn't this a double happiness!"

Xu Shufen captured the key to the problem and asked, "My brother and sister are both well? Then what about my younger sister, Shujie?"

Cai Feng sighed, "At that time, your father and mother took you three siblings out to flee from famine, and finally brought your brother back. At that time, people in the village even said that your father and mother sold you two sisters."

"They are not that kind of people. I ran away and got lost myself!" Xu Shufen hurriedly clarified.

Cai Feng also hurriedly guaranteed, "I certainly don't believe it. I even spoke for them. Watch the road, it's a bit difficult to walk."

Every household in this village seemed to be on a different level, distributed high and low, which was very fresh for the family of three of Wei Jiefang who grew up on the plains.

Of course, they were also a bit unaccustomed to it. No wonder they couldn't catch up with Secretary Secretary Wang Cai.

As they were walking, Cai Feng suddenly slapped her thigh and smiled, "Oh, your brother has come out to greet you!"

Xu Shufen looked forward and saw a thin, middle-aged man who looked like a little old man, and his hair had turned quite white.

!

"Eldest brother?"

"Shufen!"

Xu Cunmao recognized his sister at a glance. After all, with his eldest sister as a reference, the three sisters looked somewhat alike, but the second sister looked much younger than the eldest sister, but in fact, the two were only two years apart.

But Xu Shufen didn't recognize her eldest brother at first. This was too different from the young man in his twenties in her impression.

Until Xu Cunmao lifted his hair and pointed to the crescent-shaped scar on his forehead, "Remember? When you were a child, you had a fever in the middle of the night, and Father and Mother were not at home. I carried you on my back to see a doctor, and this scar was left when I fell and hit a stone on the way."

Many past events flooded into her heart. Xu Shufen instantly burst into tears, tightly grasping Xu Cunmao's hands.

"Eldest brother! I finally found you!"

Seeing her mother crying, Wei Hong also cried along. She didn't dare to imagine what it would be like if she and her brother were separated at this time and could only meet again after twenty years.

Seeing her daughter crying, Xu Shufen temporarily put aside the idea of reminiscing and introduced them to her eldest brother one by one.

"This is my man, Wei Jiefang. This is your nephew, Wei Ming, 19 years old this year. Niece Wei Hong, 14 years old. I later went to Hebei and took root there."

"Oh, then you got married earlier than me," Xu Cunmao also wiped his tears and suddenly felt someone pulling his sleeve. Only then did he turn around and introduce, "Oh, this is your eldest sister's son, Long Xiaoyang."

Long Xiaoyang was thin and small, looking about the same height as Wei Hong, but he was actually 16 years old. However, he was quite capable. He called everyone one by one, "Second Aunt, Second Uncle, Brother Ming, Sister Hong, let me help you carry things."

Lao Lao Lao Wei and Wei Ming were both carrying bags.

Among the relatives on his grandmother's side, Wei Ming was relatively familiar with Long Xiaoyang. This kid had some ability and later became a well-known breeding expert in the area, engaged in ecological breeding. Every time Wei Ming came over, he would treat him with good food and drink.

It's just that Xu Shufen was a bit puzzled. She remembered that her brother-in-law's surname wasn't Long?

When they fled from famine, her eldest sister was already married, so she didn't go with them.

Xu Shufen temporarily suppressed this doubt, pulled her eldest brother, and said, "Let's go home and see Mother first."

Wei Ming started to be busy distributing cigarettes.

"Uncle, have one. Secretary..." There were also some men he didn't know but who had followed along, and Wei Ming took care of them all.

After receiving these well-made cigarettes, they were reluctant to smoke them. Usually, they rolled their own tobacco leaves to smoke.

Noticing Long Xiaoyang's expectant eyes, Wei Ming handed over a White Rabbit candy. Why would a minor smoke?

This was a candy Long Xiaoyang had never seen before. He could smell the milky fragrance through the candy wrapper.

He was also reluctant to eat it immediately and put it in his pocket.

Seeing this, when he saw his uncle's children, Pingping and Fangfang, Wei Ming directly peeled off the candy wrapper and fed it into their mouths, making the two little brats shout happily, "So sweet! Thank you, Brother!"

So Wei Ming took out another handful and stuffed them into their pockets. There were milk candies and crisp candies, all with beautiful packaging that they hadn't seen before, making the children watching nearby drool.

After introducing the two children, Uncle said, "I also have an eldest daughter named Yunyun, who is on a blind date in the next village today, but the people just left."

However, after returning home, he found that the people on the blind date were still there, and they were enthusiastically helping to kill chickens and burn fire. The boy named Nannan was spinning around Yunyun.

Yunyun was shy.

The current cousin Yunyun was very different from what Wei Ming saw in his previous life. At this time, there was still light in her eyes.

And twenty years later, she was numbly raising three children, enduring the oppression of her cowardly husband and overbearing mother-in-law.

Seeing the boy who was not as tall as Yunyun, Wei Ming was happy. So today is the day of your blind date. He came at such a perfect time!
