Chapter 144: Don’t you know your mother’s personality?



Once the two ungrateful people left the team, peace was restored.

Everyone tacitly agreed not to mention Zhong Chengfa and Zhong Chengren, but continued to talk about the topic before they came.

Soon dinner was ready, and people sat around the four tables, creating a lively atmosphere.

Zhong Chengren hurried over and caught up with Zhong Chengfa, and started scolding him.

"Are you out of your mind? You just do whatever Uncle San says! What did our mother do to us before? Have you forgotten?"

"After Dad died, was it Mom who raised the four of us all by herself? She also helped you find a wife and raise your children..."

He looked at his eldest brother with deep sorrow and indignation: "Why did you listen to Third Uncle and come to the brigade headquarters to cause trouble?"

"Don't you know who Third Uncle is? When Dad was still alive, did he ever care about our family? Now he just can't stand us getting along!"

Zhong Chengfa was already full of anger, and now when he heard his second brother lecturing him, his anger rose even more.

"Uncle San did come and tell me, but I didn't make a scene. If you hadn't come and said a lot of nonsense, Mom wouldn't even know that Uncle San came to see me!"

He was getting angrier and angrier as he spoke: "How dare you criticize me? Don't think I don't know. You haven't been home for such a long time. You suddenly ran to the brigade headquarters, isn't it just to curry favor with the Song family?"

What he didn't expect was that Zhong Chengren wasn't ashamed but proud of it: "So what? Isn't it okay for me to think about my own future?"

There was a hint of greed in his eyes: "Have you seen those Song family members? Their clothes and demeanor are nothing compared to us country folk!"

"If I could go to the capital with them, I could become a city dweller, and be like them..."

Zhong Chengfa looked at him like a fool: "Zhong Laoer, is your brain stuck in the door?"

"Why would the Song family take you to the capital?"

The light in Zhong Chengren's eyes dimmed a little. "If our relationship with Mom hadn't been strained, how could she not take us with her if he and Director Song were going to Beijing?"

Zhong Chengfa was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Second brother, second brother, you really don't care about Mom at all."

"Mom has been running a braised food and stewing business in town a few days ago. This is just a trial run in town. She plans to sell it in the county in the future."

"Given our mother's personality, how could she possibly go to the capital like this, even though she's already prepared?"

Zhong Chengren was stunned. "You mean, after our mother married Director Song, she'll continue to stay in the countryside?"

He almost jumped up: "Is Mom crazy? Why doesn't she go back to Beijing with Director Song to live a good life?"

Zhong Chengfa sighed: "Don't you know your mother's character? She is always strong-willed. How could she be the kind of woman who would rely on others to support her?"

He couldn't help but think back to the time when his father was still alive. Although his father was indeed very good to his mother as the villagers said, he didn't let her do any heavy work.

But his mother also keeps the house clean. Even though the house is only allowed to feed three chickens, she can still feed them to be fat and strong.

In the middle of winter, other people's chickens don't lay eggs, but their chickens can still lay at least one egg every day.

At that time, the egg was the source of nutrition for the three brothers.

Not only that, he also didn't neglect the work in the fields.

After all, it was in the countryside, and the wage system was still in effect back then. Anyone in the family who was able to move had to go to the fields to earn wages, otherwise they would be criticized and educated.

Zhong Chengfa was thinking about this and was a little dazed for a moment.

Yes, his mother had obviously done so many things, so why did he really believe it when his third uncle said that his mother had done nothing and was completely supported by his father?

For a moment, Zhong Chengfa was also filled with ashamed.

Zhong Chengren was silent at that moment, and after a while he sighed: "My mother is just too stubborn!"

"She clearly has a good future waiting for her, why does she have to work so hard..."

The two brothers looked at each other in silence. In the end, no one said goodbye to each other and they turned and left.

Zhong Chengfa is fine. He is the head of the family now, and Li Hongjuan doesn't dare to disobey him, for fear that Zhong Chengfa will really divorce her.

It was different for Zhong Chengren. When he thought about facing Meng Wanshu's questioning and scolding after returning home, his scalp suddenly went numb. After thinking about it, he simply decided to stay at his friend's house for one night and go home after his mother got married tomorrow.

After Zhang Chunxue and the others finished their dinner and packed up their things, they gathered together to chat.

In the afternoon, Song Yanze followed Zhong Xiaoxiao for a stroll at the foot of the mountain. He saw many things he had never seen before, and even saw a pheasant. She almost sprained her ankle while chasing the pheasant.

This made Zhong Xiaoxiao burst into laughter.

Song Yanze was very unconvinced: "I'm going to find my grandfather! He's a soldier and a very accurate shooter! He will definitely be able to help me shoot a pheasant!"

So, after dinner, Song Yanze immediately told Song Yashan about this.

Song Yashan's mouth twitched. "I told you boys are naughty! Why are you hitting a pheasant? He's living well in the mountains, and you have to hit him!"

Song Yanze said confidently, "It's beautiful! Grandpa, you don't know, the pheasant's tail is so beautiful, it looks like a phoenix!"

Song Yashan hit him and said, "After your second uncle's wedding is over, grandpa will accompany you to the mountain!"

Song Yanze immediately cheered.

Song Yashan also saw Song Yanshen who was silent on the side, and smiled at him: "When the time comes, I will kill two, one for Xiaoze and one for Xiaoshen!"

Song Yanshen's eyes lit up immediately.

Song Yanqi came over: "Where's mine, Second Grandpa?"

Song Yashan waved his hand: "Get out! How old are you?"

Everyone burst into laughter.

When it got dark, the Song family members who were going to the town guesthouse set off first. Zhong Aiguo took a few men with him and went to the villagers' homes they found.

Song Xingzhi sent Zhang Chunxue and her family home.

Zhong Xiaoxiao held Song Yanshen's hand while chatting with Zhou Mingli.

Zhou Mingli held Zhong Yuanyuan in her arms and listened to her chattering gently.

Song Yanshen also tilted his head, listening with fascination.

Zhang Chunxue and Song Xingzhi fell behind by a few steps, and the two walked forward side by side.

The bright moonlight shone on them, and the shadows behind them intertwined.

Song Xingzhi couldn't help himself and reached out to gently hold Zhang Chunxue's hand.

"Haruyuki-sama...after tomorrow, you will be my wife!"
