One o'clock in the afternoon.
After going through 81 trials and tribulations, Mo Zhexuan and his party finally arrived in Yicheng.
After exchanging greetings with relevant leaders at the Yicheng County Government, we went to the central vegetable market.
When he saw the middle-aged man Mo Mingan, he couldn't help but think of his adoptive father.
The two brothers look at least 60% similar.
"Dad! Mom!" It was the first time Mo Zhexuan met them and it was a little difficult to speak, but he still greeted them warmly.
"Xiaoxuan! I'm glad you're back. How is my elder brother now?" Mo Minghua was very happy.
He looked at his nephew carefully and found that his eyes were like those of Mo Minghua, so he asked quickly.
"It's a long story." Mo Zhexuan felt a little sad for a moment.
Although I don’t have much affection for Mo Minghua.
But without the more than one million Hong Kong dollars left by the other party, I would not have risen so quickly. We should be conscientious in life!
Wang Xiuqin was very attentive and immediately realized that something must have happened to Mo Minghua. She quickly pulled her husband aside and said,
"Old Li! Xiaoxuan and his friends must not have eaten yet. Go and make some more food."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Mo Ming'an slapped his thigh and then remembered it. He was about to get up and prepare the meal.
"Uncle! Stop working! Why don't we go to Yicheng Grand Hotel for dinner?" Li Xiaowei suggested.
"That won't work! Just wait a moment, I'll show you my specialty." Li Ming'an greeted them.
I left the store in a hurry and went to the market to buy fresh ingredients.
While Li Mingan was cooking, Mo Zhexuan was chatting with his aunt Wang Xiuqin in front of him.
We also got information about his family.
Mo Minghua was conscripted into the Nationalist Army in 1949.
A few years later, Grandma Zhang Yueming fell ill and passed away. After the establishment of Huaxia, the Mo family lived a good life because they were a family of court chefs.
But after that vigorous movement began.
Because of the father's identity, the Mo family had a hard time.
Although we didn't starve to death, we were still very tight.
After the reform and opening up officially began, Mo Mingan wanted to improve his family's life.
At the same time, she supports her two sons and one daughter.
With the financial support of Wang Ruitong, he gritted his teeth and opened a small restaurant, and his life gradually became prosperous.
"Xiaoxuan! I saw you just mentioned that your father has a secret. Did something happen?" Wang Xiuqin asked.
“Alas…this is what happened. It was at the end of July two years ago, because my mother is Malaysian.
The two were planning to visit relatives in Malaysia, but unexpectedly, a sea breeze hit the ship, and they were swept into the sea by a tornado and unfortunately passed away..."
After Mo Zhexuan told what had happened, he pretended to be very sad.
He forced himself to shed two tears. His acting skills are worthy of an Oscar.
"Child! Everything will be fine." Wang Xiuqin couldn't stop her tears from flowing down. This child's life was so hard. She didn't know how much hardship he had gone through to achieve such success.
"Brother Xuan! You still have us." Li Peizhen and Li Xiaowei also shed tears and hurried to comfort him.
Mo Mingan, who had just come back from buying groceries, burst into tears after hearing this.
The scene of Mo Minghua taking me to play when I was a child emerged in my mind. Now, in the blink of an eye, more than 30 years have passed, and everything has changed. We are now separated by life and death.
"Brother! Dad was still talking about you before he died. Why did you leave now?"
“........”
The crying was so heartbreaking that anyone who heard it cried and anyone who saw it was heartbroken! This also shows the sincere feelings between the two brothers.
After a long time, Mo Mingan's emotions finally stabilized. He wiped his red eyes and said to Mo Zhexuan:
"Xiaoxuan! I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. I'm really happy for you for achieving such great success."
"Dad! We are all family. I returned to China this time to fulfill my father's long-cherished wish. I didn't expect that grandpa would pass away, and I still want to fulfill my filial duty on his behalf."
Mo Minghua discovered from his original body's memory that his long-cherished wish was to return to his hometown. Now that it has been fulfilled for him, he feels better.
While chatting, a few people watched Mo Mingan cooking like a god.
After a while, delicious dishes were served on the table.
The aroma in the air makes people want to taste it.
"Uncle Mo! Your cooking is so delicious! Even the chefs in five-star hotels can't compare to you."
Li Peizhen has eaten countless delicacies from land and sea, but after eating the braised turtle with fragrant herbs made by Mo Mingan, she was really full of praise.
"Thanks for the compliment. You haven't tasted the food cooked by my grandfather. That's truly master-level." Mo Ming'an thought of his father and felt very sad for a moment. He had to drink a glass of wine to ease his mood.
"Dad! I've achieved some success now, and I want to bring you to live in Hong Kong.
After all, it is an international metropolis, and the quality of education, medical environment, and other aspects are incomparable to those in China.
It will also give Wenbo and Wenxue a better education. Wencai just graduated from a technical secondary school! I think he can continue his studies."
Mo Zhexuan expressed his thoughts. If he found that Mo Minghua’s brothers and sisters were okay when he came back this time, he would be fine.
Then don't mind giving them wealth and a bright future.
"Xiaoxuan! We are used to living here. Besides, we are currently undergoing reform and opening up. In the future, we will definitely..." Mo Mingan hadn't finished speaking.
Wang Xiuqin pinched her waist and she couldn't help but turn her head and said:
"Why are you pinching me?"
"Xiaoxuan! I'm sorry! Your uncle drank too much, so we need to think about it carefully." Wang Xiuqin smiled apologetically and hurriedly explained.
"Okay! Then you guys think about it carefully and give me an answer tomorrow afternoon." Mo Zhexuan nodded with a smile.
After lunch, Mo Zhexuan and others followed Mo Mingan to his home, which was in a large courtyard.
At the same time, he met Mo Wencai, who had just started his internship at a state-owned chemical factory, Mo Wenbo, who was in middle school, and Mo Wenxue, who was in elementary school.
After having dinner at Mo Mingan’s house in the evening, we returned to the guesthouse.
They agreed to visit Grandpa Mo Zhong’s grave tomorrow. Although Mo Mingan wanted to stay at home, it was too crowded after all.
"Why did you stop me today? Do you really want to go to Hong Kong?" Mo Mingan waited until Mo Zhexuan and others left.
He immediately glared at his daughter-in-law Wang Xiuqin.
"We can choose not to go to Hong Kong. After all, this is our roots. Don't you want your children to have a bright future?"
Wang Xiuqin glanced at her three children before expressing her thoughts.
