"Yes, we'll do whatever Dad says," the Sheng brothers replied in unison.
"Okay, it's settled then."
"Honey, hurry up and prepare the meal. After we finish eating, I still need to discuss with our eldest son how to move into the house."
Sheng Liancheng waved his hand, telling Zhang Shuzhen to hurry up and prepare the food for dinner.
Zhang Shuzhen responded and, leading her two daughters, quickly set the table and cleared away the food.
Just as the food was brought up and everyone started eating, they heard someone calling from outside.
"Brother Sheng, are you off work yet? Sister-in-law, what delicious dinner are you making tonight? I'd like to come and have a free meal."
Upon hearing the commotion, Sheng Xiping immediately put on his shoes, got out of bed, and went outside.
"Master, what brings you here so late at night? Come on in quickly."
Sheng Xiping came out of the house and, without even looking at the situation outside, began to speak.
"Is he the eldest nephew of the Sheng family?"
Oh, thank you so much! If it weren't for your help, my son Erzhuzi would be in big trouble.
Several people walked in from outside the Sheng family's gate. One of them, an older man, stepped forward and grasped Sheng Xiping's hand.
Sheng Xiping was taken aback. He looked the other person over carefully for a few moments before recognizing who it was.
Qi Yongfu, the man from the Qi family in Dajianchang, is the father of Erzhuzi, who was scratched by Heixiazi.
"Hey, Uncle Qi, what brings you here? How's Erzhuzi? Has he been discharged from the hospital yet?"
Sheng Xiping has been busy lately and hasn't paid attention to what Erzhuzi looks like.
If you do the math, Erzhuzi has been hospitalized for over a month. Shouldn't he be discharged by now?
"He's been discharged from the hospital. He just got back this morning."
My face is ruined, and I've lost an eye, but no matter what, I'm lucky to be alive.
Nephew, thank you so much. If it weren't for your help that day, finding a motorcycle truck for me, my son Erzhuzi would be dead.
If he leaves, leaving behind a pregnant wife, how will she manage?"
As Qi Yongfu spoke, tears began to fall.
“Nephew, on behalf of your aunt, Erzhuzi, and Erzhuzi’s wife, thank you.”
As he spoke, Qi Yongfu was about to kneel down before Sheng Xiping.
"Oh dear, Uncle, you're trying to shorten my lifespan."
Although I'm not familiar with Erzhuzi, we still live in this same mountain valley, right? How could I just stand by and watch something happen to Erzhuzi and do nothing?
Uncle, we're neighbors, please don't do this, I can't accept it.
How could Sheng Xiping let him kneel down? He quickly reached out to help Qi Yongfu up, lifting him up with both hands until he stood up straight.
"Brother, thank you so much."
When we took him to the hospital, the doctor said, "If we had arrived any later, my brother definitely wouldn't have survived."
Another person came forward and handed the things he was carrying to Sheng Xiping.
"This is a little something I brought back from Songjiang River. It's a token of my family's appreciation. Brother, please don't think it's too little, please accept it."
"Brother, look at what you're doing?"
"I can't accept these things. I'll take them back later and give them to Brother Erzhuzi to help him recover. He needs nourishment right now."
When Sheng Xiping saw that the other party was carrying two bundles of things, including snacks and canned goods, how could he possibly accept them?
If the Qi family wanted to express their gratitude, they should have thanked Secretary Wang and the driver. Why did they bring so many gifts to thank him?
"No, no, brother, please don't do this. If you don't accept it, our whole family will feel guilty."
My brother is doing well now; he's recovered well after being hospitalized for over a month.
This is a token of our family's appreciation; please accept it.
Qi Changzhu, the eldest son of the Qi family, was speaking while trying to stuff things into Sheng Xiping's hands.
"Yes, yes, nephew, you must accept these things. They are a small token of our family's appreciation."
Over there, Qi Yongfu also spoke up for his son.
Seeing this, Sheng Xiping could only sigh.
"Uncle Qi, Brother Dazhu, I appreciate your kind intentions. But I really can't accept these things."
I was just running an errand and saying a few words in my defense.
Without the Party Secretary's approval and the driver's permission, what good is it for me to just open my mouth?
If you want to thank someone, you should thank the forestry station secretary and the driver.
Sheng Xiping didn't mean to criticize, he was just giving the Qi family a heads-up.
Regarding Erzhuzi's matter, the Qi family should be most grateful not to him, but to the person who provided the vehicle at the venue.
When Sheng Xiping said this, both the Qi father and son were stunned for a moment, as if they hadn't reacted immediately.
Liu Changde, on the other side, quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, that's what Old Qi and his son said too."
However, they don't recognize your forestry farm's secretary or the driver from that day, so there's no way for them to get there first.
That's why I came with you; I came to thank you first. Could you please show me the way to your Party Secretary's and the driver's houses?
Upon hearing Liu Changde's words, the Qi family father and son immediately understood and nodded hastily.
"Yes, yes, I'll have to trouble my nephew to show me the way."
"Look, what's so troublesome about this?"
"Perfect timing, everyone's off work and home now, so I'll go with Uncle Qi and Brother Dazhu to Secretary Wang's house."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Xiping immediately smiled and continued speaking in the same vein as the Qi family father and son.
“Master, why don’t you go inside and sit for a while? I’ll accompany Uncle Qi and the others to Secretary Wang’s and Master Huang’s house.”
We'll be back in a bit, and then I'll have a couple of drinks with Master and Uncle Qi.
The Qi family father and son took quite a lot of things, which they divided in two and gave to Wang Jiachuan and their driver, Lao Huang.
This not only saved the Qi family money, but also showed that the Qi family was good at handling things.
