Chapter 292 Extra Chapter 8 (Lin Huan)
"Mom, when are we going to visit my great aunt?"
Lin Huan came home from get off work and as soon as he opened the door he saw his son rushing towards him like a little cannonball.
Lin Huan held onto the wall to steady himself, "You little brat, take it easy. Do you know that you almost knocked your mother over just now?"
Cheng Cheng quickly hugged her mother's waist and said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I didn't mean it."
After saying that, he rubbed Lin Huan's waist again.
Lin Huan's heart softened as he rubbed her son's head. She gently rubbed her son's head and said, "What's the matter? Why do you want to go to your great aunt's house so much?"
The son blinked his big eyes and said expectantly: "At my aunt's house, we can go to the beach and play with Little Moon! Mom, it's summer vacation now, please take me there~"
"Take him there quickly. He's been reciting since he came back from school. It's giving me a headache. Even your dad has been reciting it too." Zhou Mei couldn't help but lean out from the kitchen to complain.
Lin Huan then remembered that his son's second graders would officially start their summer vacation from today. No wonder the boy couldn't stay.
Lin Huan nodded and agreed with a smile: "Okay, okay, in a few days, when mom's school is on vacation, I will take you to my great aunt's house to play, okay?"
Hearing her mother's words, Cheng Cheng jumped up happily and shouted, "Great! Mom is the best! I'm going to my great aunt's house! I'm going to my great aunt's house!"
Zhou Mei came out of the kitchen and said, "Little ancestor, please keep your voice down, or you might disturb the neighbors upstairs and downstairs!"
When Cheng Cheng heard what his grandmother said, he immediately covered his mouth with his hands, his eyes rolling around, looking very smart.
While eating, Cheng Cheng couldn't help showing off to his grandfather and father that he was going to visit his great aunt's house during the summer vacation.
Lin Hui couldn't help but laugh and said, "Cheng Cheng is like her mother in this respect. Huan Huan also liked to go to her aunt's house when she was a child."
After dinner, Cheng Cheng couldn't wait to ask his grandfather to video call his great aunt to tell her the news.
Lin Qiu on the other end of the phone smiled and said a few words to him, and then the phone was taken away by Xiaoyueliang.
The two little ones were chatting happily on their cell phones.
Before going to bed at night, Li Wenbo asked curiously: "Did you often go to your aunt's house when you were a child?"
"Yes, after my aunt bought a house, we would go there to play almost every summer vacation. I remember the first time I went there was when I graduated from elementary school." Lin Huan answered while applying skin care products on her face.
"Are you going alone or are we all going together?"
"Except for the first time when I went alone, we went together afterwards."
Li Wenbo was shocked. "Won't Aunt be annoyed by so many children?"
I have only one child, Cheng Cheng, at home now, and sometimes he is very noisy. If four or five kids got together, the roof would probably be blown off.
"Aunt has always been patient with us." Lin Huan has never seen any impatience on Aunt's face.
"No wonder you have a good relationship with your aunt!" Li Wenbo couldn't help but sigh.
"To be honest, if it weren't for my aunt, I wouldn't know which factory I would work in, let alone meet you." Lin Huan put away the skin care products and sat down against the head of the bed.
When Li Wenbo heard this, his gossipy spirit burned fiercely and he turned to look at his wife with great interest.
"This story starts from when I was a child." Lin Huan slowly recalled the past, "When I was born, my eldest aunt had not yet married. I heard from my grandmother that she took care of me more at that time..."
Ever since she could remember, Lin Huan knew that her aunt was very good to her and would buy her food every time she came back.
Later, she and her uncle took her sister Shanshan to work in Pengcheng. That was the first time she heard the name "Pengcheng".
After my eldest aunt went out to work, my grandparents would go to the prefabrication site to answer the phone during the holidays, and would come back with red eyes after answering the phone.
But she and her brothers and sisters looked forward to the holidays.
Because a few days before or after the festival, I would receive things sent back by my aunt, including clothes and delicious food. These were all good things sent back from Pengcheng and could not be found in my hometown.
Therefore, when she was a child, she was particularly envious of her younger sister Shanshan, who was able to live in a big city with her elder aunt and uncle.
Sometimes she even wonders why her parents don’t go out to work?
Later, my sister-in-law also went out to work. When they come back from the Chinese New Year, they will bring back lots of things in big and small bags, including delicious snacks, fashionable clothes and some novel toys.
At that time, Lin Huan was wearing a red sweater bought by his eldest aunt and chewing chocolate bought by his youngest aunt. He secretly vowed in his heart that he would go to Pengcheng to work when he grew up.
Later, I heard from my parents that my eldest aunt and uncle had become rich in Pengcheng. Not only did they make my younger aunt rich, they also brought my grandparents to Pengcheng to enjoy a good life.
Sure enough, mom and dad were right.
After her grandparents went to Pengcheng, they sent a lot of things home during the holidays. These things made her and her younger brothers and sisters stand out in the village and school.
When Lin Huan thought of that time, a smile appeared on his face.
"Will your aunt take you to Pengcheng for a trip soon?" Li Wenbo asked.
Lin Huan shook his head. "My eldest aunt was actually just starting out at that time. It was mainly because my father was set up to play cards and lost a lot of money. During the Chinese New Year, someone came to collect the debt. Grandpa lent him money to pay off the debt, but he was punished to sit under the altar for half a month, and then he was taken by grandpa to work in Pengcheng."
"Ah? Doesn't Dad not play cards?" Li Wenbo never thought that his father-in-law would do such a thing.
"She was scared by grandpa." Lin Huan couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this. "My mom was very angry with dad at that time. Thanks to grandpa who took dad out, things at home gradually got better. So mom has always been very grateful to grandpa and aunt. If it weren't for them, I don't know what would happen to our family."
"That's right." Li Wenbo agreed.
"So at that time I thought that after I graduated from junior high school, I would go to work. I could earn money by working, and my family would have money, and my parents would not quarrel anymore..." Lin Huan finds it a little funny when he thinks back on it now.
Li Wenbo felt a little sad.
"Isn't there a long vacation after graduating from elementary school? My mother saw that I really wanted to go to Pengcheng, and someone in the village also happened to be going there, so she bought a ticket and asked someone to take me there..."
After arriving in Pengcheng, she experienced two completely different worlds from her hometown, and her idea of coming here to work after growing up became more and more determined.
Who knew that my idea was told to my aunt by my cousin Shanshan.
My aunt first took me to the factory to cut thread ends. She got up early and went to bed late every day, but it seemed that she could never finish cutting all the thread ends. After a week of cutting, she only earned very little money.
Then she took herself to the construction site to watch her father work. Seeing her father's skin peeling off from the sun and still having to continue working under the scorching sun, she couldn't help crying.
Finally, her aunt took her to Pengcheng University. Seeing that Shanshan's teacher could earn her father's weekly salary by just sitting at home and giving a few instructions, she finally understood her aunt's intention.
Only by studying hard can you have the opportunity to choose in the future.
So she went home with the teaching materials her grandfather bought for her and studied hard. Not only did she work hard herself, she also urged her younger brothers and sisters to work hard together.
With hard work and persistence, I was finally admitted to a university.
After graduation, she stayed in the city, found a good job, met Li Wenbo, and formed a happy family.
After listening to Lin Huan's story, Li Wenbo couldn't help but give her a thumbs up: "Aunt really has a long-term vision!"
"Yes, so she not only brought up sister Shanshan, but also made the family rich." Lin Huan knew that his family was able to live up to its current situation thanks to his aunt.
"No wonder everyone in the family listens to my aunt's opinion on everything." Li Wenbo suddenly realized.
"Of course not. My aunt is a benefactor to our whole family. It is thanks to my aunt that Congcong is where he is today."
"What do you mean?"
"You'll know when you ask Cong Cong later."
"Don't keep me in suspense, just tell me!"
"Let's talk about it another day. It's already very late and I have morning self-study tomorrow!"
"All right……"
