Chapter 48 Zhou Zheng
Going to the zoo has always been one of the favorite activities for children.
Zoos in the 1970s were actually very mature, with a lot of animals collected.
This city zoo, which is not very large, also has hundreds of animals of all sizes, including elephants, tigers, lions, leopards, monkeys, peacocks, pythons, etc.
The Capital Zoo has had rare animals like pandas as early as the 1960s.
But in those days, the problem of food and saturation for the people had not yet been solved, and most of the animals in the zoo were skinny.
Chenchen liked Monkey Mountain the most. Seeing a group of monkeys jumping around in it, he clapped his hands with joy. Su Taotao gave him some snacks and asked him to feed the monkeys. His big eyes were bent into small crescents, and he was so happy.
Fu Yuanhang likes elephants the most. He even reached out and touched the elephant's trunk, took out paper and pen from his schoolbag, roughly drew the shape of an elephant, and then wrote the word "elephant".
Fu Yuanhang's handwriting was taught by Fu Zhengtu, and he writes very well.
After that, Fu Yuanhang drew an animal whenever he saw one. If he met an unfamiliar animal, he would ask Su Taotao, and then label each animal with a name.
With just a few strokes, he can make an animal come alive.
If Su Taotao hadn't come to the zoo, she wouldn't have known that Fu Yuanhang actually had this hidden skill.
Su Taotao also learned sketching in her previous life, but it must be said that talent is often more important than hard work at certain times. The end point of your hard work may just be the starting point for others, just look at their talent.
"Xiaohang draws very well. I will find a chance to send you to learn painting in the future."
Fu Yuanhang covered his notebook with his hands, a little embarrassed: "I just drew it casually."
Su Taotao smiled sweetly: "You can draw so well even if you draw casually, what will happen if you draw seriously?"
Fu Yuanhang's face turned red.
Su Taotao stopped teasing him.
Xiao Chenchen, who was held by his father's hand, stood on tiptoe to see his uncle's painting.
Fu Yuanhang showed it to him.
The little guy tilted his head to look at it for a while, nodded and affirmed his uncle's painting skills: "Like~~"
At this, Fu Yuanhang's ears turned red.
Fu Zhengtu found that he had failed to fulfill another responsibility as a brother. It was only today that he discovered that his younger brother had a talent for painting.
If it had been discovered earlier, if it had been enlightened earlier, he might be...
Then again, it would be useless even if it had been discovered earlier, because he would not have had the chance to learn before.
Fu Zhengtu touched his brother's head: "Very good."
Fu Yuanhang has admired his brother since he was a child, and he was happier than anything else to hear his brother say "yes".
The family of four only stayed in the zoo for more than two hours, and the two children were still reluctant to leave when they left.
Su Taotao promised to take them to visit zoos in other cities in the future.
It was almost dinner time when they came out of the zoo. The restaurant they had lunch at was not to their taste, so Fu Zhengtu took them to another one.
This time they did not order stir-fried dishes, but noodles and dumplings.
Not to mention the two children, even Fu Zhengtu, who had only been back for a few days, had become picky with his mouth because of Su Taotao.
He felt that nothing tasted as good as what Su Taotao cooked.
Except for the No. 1 Hotel in the county, which was recognized by them under the technical guidance of Su Taotao, it was really difficult for the dishes of other state-owned hotels to win their favor.
Chenchen ate a few dumplings, an egg and an Aizi before he felt full.
Su Taotao didn't eat much either, and the rest was taken up by the two brothers in accordance with the principle of not wasting food.
It was almost eight o'clock in the evening when they rushed to the train station after dinner.
When they arrived at the parking lot, someone was already waiting there.
The person who took Fu Zhengtu's car key looked at Su Taotao and the others in disbelief.
He looked at them with great curiosity and his eyes were upright, which didn't make people feel uncomfortable.
Zhou Zheng thought to himself, these people don't know how to eat big things, and they all look so good in large, medium and small sizes.
He raised his chin towards Fu Zhengtu: "Are you going to introduce me?"
Yes, this man is Zhou Zheng, Fu Zhengtu's college classmate and the grandson of Fu Zhengtu's retired boss. The car was forced on Fu Zhengtu by the boss.
The two have been sleeping on the upper and lower bunks since college. He knows Fu Zhengtu's character very well.
He only cares about work and would never do a good deed like helping his colleagues pick up their wives and children.
Fu Zhengtu said briefly: "My wife, my son, my brother."
He then said to Su Taotao: "My college classmate."
Su Taotao: "..." They don't deserve to have a name, right?
Being able to lend a car to Fu Zhengtu and getting him to look good is a good relationship.
Su Taotao smiled politely at a college classmate who might have a good relationship with someone: "Hello, my name is Su Taotao, my son is Chenchen, and my brother is Fu Yuanhang."
Zhou Zheng's eyes were bigger than copper bells, "You you you you" he kept saying until his tongue was tied, and it took him a long time to utter: "Hello, my name is Zhou Zheng."
Then he turned to Fu Zhengtu and cursed directly: "When did you get married? Why didn't I even know that you had a child?"
What a human being!
Zhou Zheng claimed to have the best relationship with Fu Zhengtu, and he couldn't accept that Fu Zhengtu didn't even tell him about such a big thing as getting married and having children.
Fu Zhengtu thought, I only knew that I had a child a few days earlier than you, how could you know?
As for the marriage, it was a hasty ceremony. In order to catch up with the progress of the project, he went to the base within a few days after receiving the task. He stayed there for more than two years and didn't even have time to get the certificate. He almost forgot that he had a wife at home. How could he tell Zhou Zheng?
Fu Zhengtu glanced at Su Taotao subconsciously. Yes, they haven't got the certificate yet.
Fu Zhengtu felt ashamed and sorry for them.
Fu Zhengtu didn't have the habit of greeting people. He picked up two large packages and prepared to enter the station: "Let's talk about it when we have time."
Zhou Zheng: "..."
Zhou Zheng blocked his way: "Does the old man know? Where are the other people in the base?"
His words were pure nonsense. Of course he didn't know.
Before leaving, the old man asked Fu Zhengtu to come to his house and introduce his cousin to him.
Fu Zhengtu, on the other hand, did something big without saying a word. He already had a wife and children, so why did he introduce his cousin to him?
This guy was really pestering, so Fu Zhengtu had to say, "People who saw my marriage report will know."
Zhou Zheng "tsk tsk" twice, moved his finger to point at Fu Zhengtu, and gave him a thumbs up: "You are awesome!"
He searched his pockets for a long time, but he didn't prepare anything, not even a candy. In the end, he only took out a big reunion and stuffed it into Chenchen's hand: "Chenchen, right? Uncle didn't prepare any gifts, this is for you to buy candy."
Little Fu Haochen was a little shy. Although he was taught by Su Taotao to be much more cheerful, he was still not used to this kind of thing for the first time. He didn't want his money, turned around and hugged Su Taotao's neck.
Su Taotao was also speechless. She couldn't understand why Zhou Zheng, such a social bull, would play with Fu Zhengtu. The two people's personalities were obviously two extremes.
Fu Zhengtu took the big bundle and stuffed it into Chenchen's pocket: "Thank you for my son."
He glanced at Su Taotao: "It's almost time, let's go in."
...
Zhou Zheng has been on sick leave at home for almost a month. There are countless eyes in the base staring at Fu Zhengtu, this popular guy. Even he doesn't know that Fu Zhengtu is married and has children. Except for a few leaders, it is even more impossible for others to know.
Looking at the backs of this family of four, he can already imagine what kind of bloody storm they will set off after arriving at the base.
No, he has to quickly cancel his leave and rush back to the base to see the excitement.
