499 You are Andy, the Andy of the old Zhong family

Even Jiang Leilei, who is as calm as she is, noticed that Peng Yan was not in a good mood.

"What's wrong? Who is the person who came? If you don't want to see him, do you need us to help you get rid of him?"

Peng Yan loosened her hand that was pinching the corner of her clothes, took a deep breath, and shook her head: "No, it should be my husband, my son, and my mother-in-law."

Su Taotao and Jiang Leilei looked at each other.

Peng Yan never mentioned her marital status.

But it's not hard to guess.

She is about the same age as Su Taotao, and a few months older than Su Taotao. She is also an educated youth who went to the countryside. It's normal for her to be married and have children.

Peng Yan shook her head: "No, they are here to pick me up."

Peng Yan bit her lower lip: "Taotao, Leilei, can any of you lend me some money?"

She and Yu Xuemei were both from poor families. Yu Xuemei was better off than her, but not much better. They both went to college on subsidies and had no extra money.

Jiang Leilei nodded: "How much do you want? I only have a few hundred yuan on me. If it's not enough, I'll go home and ask my dad for it."

Her dad didn't have much of anything, but a lot of money.

Peng Yan nodded and looked at Jiang Leilei very embarrassedly:

"That's enough, but I may have to wait until I graduate and make money before I can pay you back. I'll write you an IOU."

Su Taotao was worried that she was being cheated and asked her, "What do you want to do with the money?"

Peng Yan said, "I don't want to go back to the countryside with them. I want to rent a room nearby, do some small business, and settle down here."

Su Taotao stared at the luggage in her hand.

Peng Yan seemed to know what she wanted to ask.

"I originally wanted to go back and pick up my son first, but now that they are here, I don't have to go back."

Su Taotao said, "Are they not good to you?"

Peng Yan smiled miserably and shook her head, "Not bad, but too good. So good that I feel guilty when I want to forget my experience in the countryside after returning to the city, and forget that I have been married and had children."

It's not that they were not good to her, but that her experience in the countryside was very bad, and her marriage was not glorious.

"Peng Yan..."

Peng Yan shook her head: "It's my own problem. My mother-in-law looks fierce, but she is also a good person."

Su Taotao thought for a while and said: "Old Man Du has several courtyards. I'll ask him if there is anything suitable. Since you don't want to go back, just settle down first. It won't cost much."

Peng Yan's eyes reddened when she heard this: "Thank you Taotao, thank you all."

"Do you still need money?" Jiang Leilei asked Peng Yan.

Su Taotao said, "Not for the moment. I'll find a way. I have the money here, too."

Jiang Leilei: "Then let's go down together? Is it convenient?"

Peng Yan wiped the corner of her eyes: "If you don't mind, I'll introduce them to you."

"Hey," Jiang Leilei rolled her eyes again, "If they treat you badly, I'll not only dislike them, but I'll also find someone to mess with them. But if they are your family and treat you well, it doesn't hurt to get to know them." As they

talked, they went to the first floor.

The man holding the little boy was very tall, and his skin was the dark black that could only be exposed to the sun by facing the loess for many years.

The aunt next to her, who was about fifty years old, had some gray hair, high cheekbones and a high nose bridge. When she pursed her lips and didn't smile, she really gave people a feeling that she was not easy to mess with.

"Mom, Anzi, Dingbang..."

After a semester of being raised, Peng Yan has regained her appearance as a city dweller. Her already delicate skin has become several shades whiter.

Zhong Dingbang stared at her, not knowing what to do with his hands and feet.

Zhong's mother smiled: "Yan'er has changed a lot. Mom almost didn't recognize her. These are your classmates. Hello."

Peng Yan introduced both parties one by one.

After getting to know each other, Yu Xuemei rushed to catch the train and left first.

Jiang Leilei's family came to pick her up and also left first.

She stuffed the bicycle key into Peng Yan's hand: "My bicycle is left for you to use. Remember to call me if you have anything. If I'm not at home, remember to leave me a message."

Peng Yan held the key tightly and thanked Jiang Leilei.

Peng Yan's son Anzi is less than three years old, and is at a playful age. Chenchen teases him with candy.

Anzi is shy, but he likes this handsome brother and his candy very much. He lies on his father's shoulder and looks at Chenchen shyly, but dares not reach out to take the candy.

Chenchen simply peels off the candy wrapper and puts the candy directly into his mouth.

Anzi has never eaten such delicious candy before, and grins: "Thank you, brother."

Chenchen likes being a brother the most, and touches his little head: "You're welcome, brother has more in his pocket, and I'll give it to you after you finish eating."

Peng Yan looked at her son's unfamiliar eyes. He was closer to Chenchen than herself, and tears could not help falling.

Su Taotao patted her on the shoulder: "Let's settle down in the store first."

Fortunately, they had traveled a long way and didn't bring much with them.

Two bicycles could basically hold all the luggage.

Zhong Dingbang was a simple and honest man who didn't like to talk.

Peng Yan had something on her mind.

Zhong's mother was cheerful and she was the one who spoke on behalf

of the village all the way. Su Taotao chatted with her and learned that she was the head of the women's department in the village. She thought she was amazing.

When they returned to the store, it was the busiest time for lunch. Su Taotao asked them to settle down in the room where Fu Yuanhang and Chenchen usually took their lunch break.

Fu Yuanhang poured them some water and brought in some snacks:

"Take a break first, drink some water and eat some snacks to fill your stomach. We'll have dinner after this busy period."

How could Peng Yan feel embarrassed?

She would occasionally come to the store to help, and without saying a word, she followed Fu Yuanhang out to help.

Zhong's mother touched her son's arm: "You can go and help too, I'll just look after Anzi."

In his spare time, Zhong Dingbang would also do odd jobs in the town. He usually went to the state-owned hotels in the county, where he washed dishes, cut into pieces, served dishes, took orders... He would go wherever he could be busy, and these jobs were not difficult for him.

After everyone left, Zhong's mother looked at the beautifully shaped snacks, hugged her grandson and sighed:

"The world outside is different from the village. People are different when they return to the city, and snacks are also different. But Anzi, your father is a farmer. Three generations of your ancestors were poor and middle-class farmers. They are not worthy of the Golden Phoenix in distress.

The Golden Phoenix is ​​willing to give birth to you, a little golden egg for our Zhong family. It is already a great honor for the ancestors. Anzi, you must remember that no matter where you are in the future, you are the Zhong family. You are the descendant of our Zhong family."

Anzi looked at the snacks that opened the door to his new world, reached out his hand, carefully picked up a piece, put it in his palm, and handed it to Zhong's mother:

"Look, grandma, these are beautiful snacks given by my handsome brother. Eat them first..."

Mother Zhong shook her head: "Grandma is not hungry, Anzi will eat them."

Anzi then brought the little white rabbit-shaped shrimp dumpling to his mouth and bit off its ear:

"It's delicious, but grandma, you remembered it wrong. I'm not Little Golden Egg. I'm Anzi. Who is Golden Phoenix? If my surname is not Zhong, what should I be?"

"Yes, yes, yes, grandma remembered it wrong. You are Anzi, Anzi from our old Zhong family."

Anzi stuffed the remaining half of the little rabbit into Mother Zhong's mouth:

"Grandma, you lied again. Every time you want to save good things for Anzi, you say you're not hungry. Isn't it delicious?"

Zhong's mother, who was caught off guard by a bite of snack, blushed: "Delicious, really delicious."

She has never seen such snacks in her life. If Peng Yan finally decides to divorce her son, she will be willing to hand Anzi over to Peng Yan. Her Anzi deserves a better life. Only by staying in the capital can her Anzi eat such good snacks.
