Chapter 95 The weasel pays New Year's greetings to the chicken
"Captain Sheng, um, we've come over to apologize to you."
Du Jiabin, with half his face dark and his small eyes almost invisible, smiled awkwardly at Sheng Xiping on his long face.
"Captain Sheng, we had a lot of misunderstandings with you before."
We've reflected on our actions these past few days, and we know we were wrong. We came here today specifically to apologize.
The other educated youth quickly echoed this sentiment.
Even Sun Yunpeng, who was usually defiant and resentful, nodded to Sheng Xiping.
Sheng Xiping glanced at the group of people in front of him and sneered inwardly.
What does it mean when a weasel visits a chicken to offer New Year's greetings—it's all up to no good? These examples are perfect illustrations.
Looking at their forced smiles, they certainly weren't there to apologize sincerely.
Perhaps he needs something from someone and has no choice but to bow his head.
"You're too kind. We're all educated youth from the same forest farm. We're all young and hot-blooded, so it's normal for us to have some minor disagreements."
"Come in and sit down. Have you eaten? Let's grab something to eat together."
Yesterday, Sheng Xiping treated everyone to badger meat stewed with radishes, which made me guess that these people would make some moves.
As expected, these guys were far too impatient.
Sheng Xiping chuckled inwardly, but showed no sign of it on his face. He chased the two dogs back to their kennel while inviting the group of people into the house.
Sheng Xiping's attitude surprised everyone, and for a moment the people outside the door didn't know how to deal with it.
Du Jiabin reacted quickly, stepping into the Sheng family's gate with a smile on his face.
"We've already eaten. We ate in the cafeteria this morning."
As they spoke, the group followed Sheng Xiping into the Sheng family home.
"Boss, who's here? Looking for you?" Sheng Liancheng asked from the east room where he was eating.
Although he was also the team leader, most of the time, people in the workshop still called him the factory manager, since he also managed the small repair shop.
So when I heard someone outside calling for Captain Sheng, I was quite puzzled.
Most of the educated youth in the forest farm called each other by their given names or "brother," so why was someone calling him "Captain Sheng"?
"Dad, Mom, these are some comrades from our educated youth team, they're from Songjianghe."
Sheng Xiping led the people into the house and introduced them with a smile.
"Hello, Director Sheng, hello, Auntie." The group of people greeted Sheng Liancheng and his wife very politely as they entered the room.
Sheng Liancheng glanced at the group of young people, paused for a moment, and then nodded to them.
"Oh, oh, you're all from the educated youth team. Come on, sit down."
"Mom, hurry and get something to eat; the kids probably haven't had breakfast yet."
Sheng Liancheng was quite enthusiastic and busied himself telling his wife to prepare the meal.
"Uncle, Aunt, no need, no need, we've already eaten before we came." The group quickly waved their hands.
"Well, we were used to a leisurely life in town, so it was a bit difficult for us to suddenly become educated youth in the forest farm."
We had a bit of a disagreement with Captain Sheng and his team before. Captain Sheng didn't hold a grudge and still thought of us when good things happened.
The more we thought about it after we got back, the more uneasy we felt. We came here this morning to apologize to Captain Sheng.
The group of people stood there, speaking rather awkwardly.
"Oh, oh, so that's what it is."
Look at this, what's wrong with that? They're just young people, isn't it normal for them to have some tempers and conflicts?
Who could possibly take it to heart? What's the point of apologies? There's no need for any of that.
"You're all from the same educated youth team, so just get along well from now on." Sheng Liancheng looked like he suddenly understood.
"Xiping, he came all the way from the town to our little mountain village, so he must be having trouble adjusting to many things."
You're the team leader, and a local resident of Qianchuan. From now on, you must take good care of them, both at work and in their lives.
You can't just lead your group of friends to bully someone because they're from out of town.
Sheng Liancheng turned his head, glanced at his eldest son, and deliberately put on a stern face.
"Dad, don't worry, it was just a misunderstanding before."
It's all in the past now, and I haven't taken it to heart.
It's alright, I'll definitely help everyone better from now on.
We're all from the same educated youth team, and we'll all be living in collective households from now on, so we must stick together."
Upon hearing his father's words, Sheng Xiping immediately nodded in agreement.
"Well, please sit down, everyone. There's no need for formalities when you're at home."
"Yunfang, hurry up and boil some water to make tea for your brothers."
Over here, Zhang Shuzhen happily called her daughter to boil water.
"Oh, Auntie, no need, no need. We'll just say a few words and leave. Don't trouble your sister."
Du Jiabin and the others quickly put the things they were carrying on the kang (a heated brick bed).
"This is a small token of our appreciation. Please don't refuse it, Uncle and Aunt. If you don't accept it, it means that Captain Sheng won't forgive us."
"Oh dear, look at these kids, why are they so uncouth?"
"You were already having a hard time as educated youth in the forest farm, why waste this money?"
Upon seeing this, Sheng Liancheng couldn't help but pretend to complain a couple of times.
"When you come back, I'll cook something delicious at home and invite you over for drinks."
"Okay, thank you, Uncle." The group was quite pleased to hear this.
"Well, it's our turn to take over today, Captain Sheng. Take your time eating, we'll talk later."
Having achieved their purpose, and with the guests still eating, these people felt it wouldn't be good for them to stay any longer, so they said goodbye and left.
Sheng Liancheng hurriedly got up to see them off, but was stopped. So he sent Sheng Xiping to accompany them to the gate.
