Chapter 323
When Qin Chengfeng learned the news, he had a blank expression on his face, but he was uneasy in his heart.
When he was in his hometown, he had a prophetic dream. In fact, he met his biological mother in the dream.
Moreover, in the dream, I witnessed her death with my own eyes.
Although he had some complaints about his biological mother, it was only in a dream after all, and when he came back, his mother was still very kind to him.
She even went against Su Yingying and Qin Mubai because of him, and ended up with a bad ending.
But, for so many years, not only did his mother abandon him and not care about him anymore, she even ignored his grandfather, which was so unfilial. He couldn't get rid of this person in his heart.
At least, in his dream, he did not acknowledge this mother when he died.
In the dream at that time, because the fourth uncle Zhang Yaozong had died, and he did not recognize Zhang Changshun as his grandfather, therefore, the dream did not mention at all that Lei Yueshu's husband was actually the fourth uncle!
Qin Chengfeng was in a very complicated mood.
"Linlin and the others will be returning to their hometown in a few days. Zhang Yuxiu is getting married, so they will go back to see Fourth Uncle."
Zhang Wan hesitated for a moment, "Are you going back?"
Of course she wanted to go too, but she was not sure about Qin Chengfeng.
Qin Chengfeng was silent for a long time before he sighed, "Let me think about it, and the time may not be right."
Qin Chengfeng was still somewhat reluctant to treat Lei Yueshu badly.
Zhang Wan expressed her understanding and after a few words of comfort, she said that if Qin Chengfeng didn't have time, it didn't matter, she could be the representative.
Qin Chengfeng was helpless, as expected.
In the county town, Zhang Yaozong was also very busy.
After he returned to China, he reported the fact that he had brought a shipload of cultural relics and antiques with him.
He knew very well that there were many things he couldn't sell.
Since I can't use it openly for myself and can only collect it, I might as well make the best use of it.
Although smuggling is illegal, if it is, the cultural relics smuggled back are all cultural relics recovered for the country.
They were lost when the country was invaded. They are very precious and can even be called national treasures that represent the country's reputation.
Is that still called smuggling?
No!
Sure enough, after receiving the report, the higher-ups took it seriously, and when Stone Monkey got off the plane along the coast, he met the local bigwigs.
The report clearly stated what was on the cargo ship and the cultural relics collected through the hardships outside over the years, which shocked the central government.
Of course, smuggling does not exist at all.
In addition, Zhang Yaozong was not on the ship at all, so it was even easier to load other things.
After staying at the coast for a few days and completing various handover procedures, he waited for the country to award him honors.
By then, I will have to go to Beijing again.
Zhang Yaozong returned to the county town exactly this morning.
When he entered the town and intercepted the brigade's tractor, the tractor operator was stunned.
"You, you are Zhang Yaozong"
The tractor operator was not from the Zhang family. He was an outsider who moved to the village during the war years. However, after several decades, he had already been integrated into the village.
He used to see Zhang Yaozong every day, but he hadn't seen him for nearly 20 years. Zhang Yaozong had white hair on his temples, but his face was smooth, and he looked like he was living a good life.
"Taozi."
Zhang Yaozong had recognized Chen Tao a long time ago.
At first, Chen Tao was the playmate of the fifth child, Zhang Yaojun, and he often visited their home.
Almost twenty years have passed, and Chen Tao has become a middle-aged man.
Zhang Yaozong became even more dazed and felt even more guilty.
He had originally gone abroad on a gamble, wanting to make a name for himself and impress his father and elder brother, but he never expected that so many years had passed in the blink of an eye after he had gone abroad.
He is so unfilial!
"Brother Yaozong, it's great that you're back!"
Chen Tao was a little excited.
Apart from the second branch of the Zhang family, the most regrettable one is probably the fourth branch, Zhang Yaozong, who is missing.
Now he is back, with his wife. Although he doesn't have the child, his life is still complete.
Chen Tao was no fool. Although he was puzzled as to why Zhang Yaozong, who was already so old, had not brought the child back, he did not ask rashly.
The tractor was empty and some farm tools were loaded on it.
Although Lei Yueshu had lived a good life for so many years and was very uncomfortable with sitting on a tractor, she looked at her excited husband and said nothing.
"Taozi, how has my family been doing these years?"
Zhang Yaozong asked somewhat nervously.
Chen Tao's envious look made Zhang Yaozong feel relieved.
"It's fine! Except for your second brother who was a bad man and died early, your family hardly interacts with the second branch, except for Yaojun..."
Chen Tao fell silent.
Zhang Yaojun is his good brother. Although he has been in the army for many years, their brotherhood remains unchanged.
Zhang Yaozong's face changed drastically.
"What happened to Yaojun?"
Thinking of Zhang Yaojun serving in the army, Zhang Yaozong's face turned pale.
"Yaojun has been sacrificed for ten years."
Zhang Yaozong was stunned.
It turned out that two of the five brothers had already passed away.
Lei Yueshu held Zhang Yaozong's hand and looked at him worriedly.
However, she became more anxious.
Yaozong's brothers have all passed away, what about her old father?
And...what about that child?
Lei Yueshu's face also turned pale, but she couldn't open her mouth to ask.
She comforted herself that she was from the next brigade and Taozi might not know about it.
She decided to accompany Yaozong back to his hometown first, and then go back in person to apologize to her father.
"But the rest of your family is doing well, don't worry."
Seeing that the couple looked unhappy, Chen Tao comforted them.
Zhang Yaozong took the opportunity to inquire about other news.
"Your eldest brother and his family are very successful..."
"Your eldest brother is now the second in command in the provincial capital. Your eldest sister-in-law was previously the deputy editor-in-chief of a newspaper in Beijing. I heard that she opened a clothing factory in the suburbs of Beijing."
"Your eldest nephew, Guosheng, led the research and development of our country's first aircraft carrier a few years ago. Although it was a light aircraft carrier, it opened a new chapter in navigation. It is said that they are already researching more advanced aircraft carriers."
"Your niece Linlin, a college student, and your second nephew, your eldest brother's adopted son, your second nephew's wife, and other people have partnered to open a hotel."
"Your third uncle was rehabilitated after being sent down to the countryside, and he's living a good life now..."
The astonishing streams left Zhang Yaozong and his wife stunned.
What aircraft carrier, what newspaper editor
There is also the provincial second-in-command
For college students, forget about it. After all, his eldest brother is a college student and was once a primary school teacher and leader. It's not unusual. But for the others, how come they are like listening to a foreign language?
Zhang Yaozong looked a little strange, not knowing whether he was dreaming or Chen Tao was dreaming.
"Are you sure you're not telling me a story?"
Zhang Yaozong looked unconvinced.
Chen Tao laughed out loud.
"Your family members are so amazing. They are telling us stories!"
Indeed, the Zhang family has grown so rapidly in recent years that it seems as if they are in a different world from them. If it weren't for the fact that Grandpa Zhang Changshun was at his hometown every day and had set up a planting base and a farm, they would have thought that the Zhang family was putting on a show.
The information was so exaggerated that Zhang Yaozong and his friend ignored the matter of their adopted son.
After all, among so much information, this one is too inconspicuous.
