Chen Xia had received a letter from Chen Chun before. This time, National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival were together, and Chen Chun was planning to go back to Yuezhou with three female classmates to celebrate the festival.
The letter asked him to prepare reception duties, bedding, snacks, etc.
Chen Xia was very happy. Academician Chen was coming home to visit his family, so she had to eat well and sleep well to earn her enough face among her classmates.
The batch of Junzi crabs that Chen Xia asked Yu Deshui to help order has arrived. In the golden autumn season of October, eating crabs and drinking rice wine is definitely one of life's great pleasures.
These past few nights, Chen Xia was busy carrying a few big crabs and a few boxes of mooncakes as Mid-Autumn Festival gifts to President Gu, Secretary Zhang, Liu Bo, Qian Jun, and Qin Weimin.
The flattery work must be done well, as it is related to his future leave.
Of course, the master is also indispensable. Ren Yuanfei is really good to Chen Xia. Maybe it has something to do with Chen's father, but it is more related to Chen Xia's own good personality.
However, Chen Xia insisted that his master was so kind to him just because he wanted to eat more meat.
As for the department, everyone got a tube of mooncakes, even Yao Yinping from the pediatric department got one. The two of them had been getting along well since that trip to the countryside.
Of course, the one who received the most snacks was Gu Lin. She prepared two boxes of moon cakes, two boxes of osmanthus cakes, a pound of raisins, a pound of White Rabbit milk candies and a pound of digital biscuits for the little girl.
Sometimes Chen Xia feels like she is raising a daughter.
In the infectious disease ward, Gu Lin was shouting exaggeratedly:
"Wow, Chen Xia, are these all for me? There are so many things, if someone didn't know, they would think you were coming to propose marriage."
Everyone in the department burst out laughing.
Chen Xia rolled his eyes and said, "Whoever marries you will be cursed for the rest of his life. You're lazy and greedy. Apart from being pretty, pure, and beautiful, you're completely useless."
Gu Lin was unhappy and put her hands on her hips.
"If you dare to say that to me again, I will marry you, and then I will bring trouble to you every day, eat you out of poverty, take over your house in Plum Garden, and kick you out. Humph."
Head Nurse Ding was delighted and quickly said:
"Chen Xia, do you hear me? Hurry up and marry this evildoer to prevent her from harming the world. Sacrifice yourself and save all of humanity."
Guo Musen pretended to be resentful and said:
"Chen Xia, do you want it? If not, I'll do it. I'm willing to be harmed by Lady Gu."
Everyone was laughing so hard that they were staggering. Gu Lin waved his fist at Guo Musen.
"Guo Mutou, forget it. I won't marry anyone unless there are 100 cakes proposing for me. Humph."
Ren Yuanfei thought carefully and said with certainty:
"As far as I know, apart from Chen Xia, no one in our Fourth Hospital can afford 100 cakes. It seems that your offer is really designed for Chen Xia. Xiao Xia, what are you waiting for? Go order some cakes."
Gu Lin blushed at these words, and took a quick look. Chen Xia was grinning along with everyone else.
"What a fool!"
National Day finally arrived, and Chen Xia took another four days off, with a good reason: he wanted to spend National Day with his elder sister.
Ren Yuanfei didn't expect this guy to be of much help in the department, so he readily agreed. Of course, the crab mooncakes and cigarettes he had received earlier made him even more happy.
The three siblings cleaned the plum garden inside and out a day in advance, and the guest rooms in the west wing were also prepared. Everything was ready.
On October 1st, Chen Xia brought his two little ones and waited at the exit of Kezhen Railway Station early, awaiting the arrival of Academician Chen.
As soon as Chen Chun's figure appeared at the exit, Chen Dong rushed up and hugged him. The surprised Chen Chun kissed and hugged him, and he was very happy.
Chen Xia and Chen Qiu also came forward, and the four sisters staged a reunion and a heartwarming family ethics drama.
Then Chen Chun introduced three female classmates to Chen Xia.
"Xiao Xia, if you have a crush on any of my classmates, tell me and I'll make the decision for you. We can get married right away, what do you think? If you don't mind having to marry them all, that's fine. They already call me sister-in-law anyway."
Zhan Aiju and the other three could not stand Chen Chun's shameless and vulgar words, so some covered their mouths, some tickled her, and the four female college students made a mess, which made the boys around them drool.
When it comes to driving, who can drive better than Mr. Chen?
"Oh, since the three young ladies have taken the initiative, I'll respectfully obey. In the future, our family will build a hospital and have a bunch of little monkeys. We will definitely become the first millionaire in Yuezhou."
"Hahaha, Ah Chun, your little brother is really funny. He's a millionaire, but in our place, you can get a wife with just 200 yuan."
Chen Xia patted his chest and said, "I can offer 2,000 yuan. How about that? Pretty generous, right?"
Hahaha.
After some playing around, the strangeness of the first meeting dissipated a lot. Chen Chun held Chen Qiu in one hand and Chen Dong in the other, and walked home happily.
Even though Chen Chun had imagined countless times how luxurious her new home would be, when she actually walked into the Plum Garden, she was still shocked by the magnificent courtyard house and could hardly believe her eyes.
"Xiao Xia, is this our new home?"
The three friends behind him were shocked.
Before, they always thought that Chen Chun was from the peasant class like them, but now they know that this guy is actually from the bourgeoisie and is richer than the other working-class people in the dormitory.
Zhan Aiju: "Wow, Ah Chun, you are from a landlord family. Just look at this house. Even the largest family in our village is not as luxurious as this one."
Fang Meizhen: "Achun, I think I really need to consider your brother. I want to be the hostess of this house."
Shen Huishan: "Hold me up, my legs are weak."
Chen Xia no longer had any hope for this group of contemporary female college students, so she ran off to prepare some fruit early, leaving these four crazy girls to explore every room in the Plum Garden as if they were visiting the Grand View Garden, full of curiosity.
Chen Qiu had already moved the table to the yard, Chen Dong was helping to get fruit and soda, and a chef from the guesthouse was already in the kitchen helping to cook.
Chen Xia and Chen Dong can't cook. Although Chen Qiu can cook, she can only cook some home-cooked dishes. She can't handle complicated ingredients.
So Chen Xia has been thinking about whether she should hire a nanny, but in this sensitive era, this is probably a "fatal question", so she can only endure it.
After the visit, Chen Chunxian took his three children to the small building in the backyard, where photos of Chen's father and mother were placed and a small mourning hall was set up.
