When Song Yongjun suddenly heard Fang Huai's voice, he thought he had misheard.
Unexpectedly, Old Xu nudged him and said, "That young man seems to be calling you. Was he one of your former subordinates?"
As Song Yongjun watched Fang Huai getting closer and closer, he felt as if he were in another world.
"Commander..."
Song Yongjun glanced around instinctively, then hurriedly said, "There are no leaders here, just call me Lao Song."
Fang Huai choked up as he said, "Old Song, are you doing well here?"
Fang Huai felt extremely distressed. The once spirited and high-spirited leader was now hunched over, picking up cow dung in the cowshed...
"Well, compared to many of my old friends, I'm already very lucky."
Song Yongjun's words were sincere. Although they live in poor conditions and have to do voluntary labor (without earning work points), they are still living in poverty.
But at least the people here didn't subject them to mental torture, nor did they drag them to be criticized and denounced.
This is already very lucky for them.
The people here have all been sent down to the countryside. Fang Huai, who is always cautious, said, "Old Song, are you free now? I have something I'd like to say to you privately."
Old Xu and his friends didn't feel offended, after all, the other party knew them and certainly didn't trust them.
"Old Song, go ahead, we'll be done here soon too. We can take a break once we're done."
Song Yongjun and Fang Huai then walked down the mountain.
He originally planned to take Fang Huai back to the cowshed, but when he got halfway there, he suddenly remembered that Old Xu's wife was still in the cowshed.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, Fang Huai looked at Song Yongjun in silence for a long time.
"You little brat, you came all this way just to stare at me like that?"
Song Yongjun found it somewhat amusing; looking at Fang Huai's appearance, anyone who didn't know better would think he was about to die.
"Besides, I'm perfectly fine, why are you making such a long face?"
"Nonsense! You'll definitely live to be a hundred! I'm just indignant on your behalf..."
Looking at Song Yongjun, who had only been in the incident for less than two months, Fang Huai felt that his spirit and energy had diminished considerably.
"There's nothing to be upset about. Being able to escape with your life is already a great blessing."
"And you don't need to go around pulling strings and begging for favors for an old man like me anymore."
Fang Huai looked up in surprise: "You know?"
Song Yongjun smiled with relief: "How could I not know? So many people who were in the same accident as me didn't survive."
"If it weren't for your help behind the scenes, I'd probably be in the far northwest by now. You must have gone to a lot of trouble, right?"
Fang Huai stubbornly replied, "It's alright, it didn't take much effort."
"By the way, Mr. Song, Xiao Cheng will be coming here to work in the countryside in a while."
"What?!"
Now it was Song Yongjun's turn to be unsettled, as Xiao Cheng was his family's only son.
Song Yongjun has three children: the eldest, Song Hai; the second, Song Lu; and the youngest, Song Kong.
The eldest son, Song Hai, has not remarried since his wife passed away in an accident, and he has no children.
The second son, Song Lu, and his wife were both soldiers who died in a war, leaving behind their only son, Song Mincheng.
The third brother, Song Kong, also sacrificed his life during a mission.
So now the Song family only has this one third generation, and Song Yongjun is their precious darling.
"Nonsense! Xiao Cheng doesn't need to go to the countryside at all, what is he trying to do?!"
Fang Huai explained on Song Mincheng's behalf: "Old Song, you can't really blame Xiao Cheng."
"It's probably the safest and most suitable thing for him to come here to work in the countryside. He can keep an eye on you nearby and avoid all the infighting."
Has he already registered?
"Yes."
well!
What else could Song Yongjun say? It was a done deal. But he still added, "Remember to tell Xiao Cheng to come here to see me less often."
Fang Huai dared not agree. Song Mincheng was not old, but he had a stubborn temper.
"You should tell Xiao Cheng that yourself later. He won't listen to me."
"By the way, Mr. Song, is there anything you need? I'll try to send it to you while I still have a few days of vacation left."
This was also Fang Huai's main purpose in coming here this time.
Song Yongjun originally wanted to say that he lacked nothing, but before he could finish speaking, he suddenly remembered Old Xu's wife.
"Could you please get some medicine for me? Old Xu's wife has had a fever for two days now. If it doesn't break soon, she might..."
Fang Huai nodded: "Okay, what about you?"
Since they were able to get Song Yongjun to speak up, they must be decent people, or perhaps they had helped him before.
"I don't need to say anything, and it's not appropriate for too many things to appear here right now."
......
Fang Chuchu is very good at getting along with children because she has a daughter named Nuonuo at home.
She and Dundun had a blast at the Huang family's house.
After packing the pickled vegetables for Fang Chuchu and Huang Qinqin, Grandma Huang went to work.
Yes, Huang Qinqin also asked for a serving of pickled vegetables. It wasn't that she asked for them herself, but rather that she suddenly remembered that she had only given Manager Gao two kinds of pickled vegetables.
She plans to give Manager Gao the pickled cowpeas and sauerkraut to try tomorrow as well.
Huang Qinqin had just put a basin of water in the yard to dry, and now that she felt the temperature was about right, she called out to Dundun.
"DunDun~ Come here, Auntie will give you a bath first."
Dun Dun was sweating profusely from running, and Huang Qinqin was afraid that he would catch a cold if he was exposed to the wind.
Moreover, Dun Dun didn't take a nap today, so he's actually sleepy now. Although he's been moving around, his eyes are almost closed.
Okay~
Fang Chuchu also came over to help bathe Dundun, and she touched Dundun's belly.
He whispered to Huang Qinqin, "Qinqin, Dundun's belly is so chubby."
Huang Qinqin knew, of course; the name Dundun wasn't given lightly, but she still gave her a reminder.
Shh, don't let him hear you.
However, Dun Dun ran around for too long this afternoon and is now so sleepy that she's fishing. She didn't pay any attention to what they were saying.
Seeing that Dundun was almost asleep, Huang Qinqin didn't dare to bathe him for too long.
I picked him up and dried his body and hair. Then I carried Dundun into Huang Ersao's room.
"Second Sister-in-law, Dundun is asleep. I've already given him a bath. Please keep an eye on him."
"Okay, you can put Dundun and Kangkang together."
Huang Ersao got up and made room for Dundun.
Huang Qinqin looked at Dundun and Kang Kang. The two children, one big and one small, were lying together in similar sleeping positions, which was quite cute.
"Then, Second Sister-in-law, we'll head back now. Could you please come out and close the door?"
"Okay, be careful on your way back."
