"After lunch, let's go hiking outside the village together?" Zheng Xinyi suggested.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Huang Lei smiled and said, "Next time! We've already bought the train tickets for the return trip this afternoon."
"You've come all the way here with great difficulty, why are you in such a hurry to go back?" Cheng Haoyu asked.
"That's right, we finally got together. Now that Haoyu and Huang Lei have returned to the army, I don't know when we can get together again." Zheng Xinyi was full of reluctance.
"Don't say that. There are still many days to come, and we will get together someday. Besides, it's so cold and there are only desolate mountains and hills. There's nothing much to see. If we have a chance, we can come in the summer when everything is green and lush. That's when it will be really beautiful." said Aunt Pang.
Zheng Xinyi sighed deeply without saying a word. The atmosphere suddenly became depressing. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to comfort Xinyi. In fact, no one felt good when separation was mentioned.
"It's almost time, let's all go to my house for lunch!" Cheng Haoyu suddenly spoke, interrupting the depressing scene.
"Let's go! I'm hungry." The son of the noodle shop owner deliberately touched his stomach to resolve the embarrassment in front of him.
After the words fell, everyone forced themselves to smile and followed Cheng Haoyu to Old Cheng's house.
"You're back at the perfect time. The food is ready. I was just about to ask Haoyang to come find you! Everyone, come in and sit down." Cheng Dayu warmly entertained them when he saw them enter the yard.
"I'm really sorry, there's really nothing delicious at home, so I just made a few simple side dishes, hoping that they will suit everyone's appetite." Zhang Fengrong had already spent all the meat and vegetable coupons in the family, and he could only barely make a few decent meals.
"It's a rich meal with both meat and vegetables," said Aunt Pang with a smile.
"Everyone, please sit wherever you want!" said Zhang Fengrong.
Cheng Haoyu personally filled everyone's glasses and said, "You are all my son's friends. Brothers, I am deeply moved that you have come from so far away to attend their wedding. This glass of wine is a toast to you all."
"Brother Cheng, you're welcome." Huang San said.
"Brother, you can't drink." When Brother Mao saw him pouring wine, he immediately grabbed the wine jug to stop him.
"I have to have a drink with everyone today, otherwise I will feel uncomfortable." Cheng Haoyu said meaningfully.
After he finished speaking, Brother Cat, who was holding the wine jug, became embarrassed.
"Okay, Uncle Huang will give you a sip. Everyone understands your intention. You can't drink alcohol, and everyone knows that. Just a small sip will do the trick." As he spoke, Huang San stood up and poured him a small sip.
No matter what, Huang San is the elder after all, and he has spoken, so Cheng Haoyu naturally can't say much. Although the wine is little, the friendship is priceless.
Cheng Haoyu picked up his wine glass, and everyone followed suit. The glasses clinked together silently, and the strong brotherhood went into their stomachs along with the wine, flowing through their blood throughout their bodies.
"Brotherhood is priceless. It is my son's blessing to meet you all." Cheng Dayu was inexplicably moved by this scene.
"Brother Cheng, thank you for your warm hospitality. We will go back after dinner. If there is a chance in the future, Brother Cheng, you come to Beijing, we will accompany you to have a good tour." Huang San said.
"Why are you so anxious?" Cheng Dayu asked.
"Brother Cheng, Mr. and Mrs. Sun Xiang run a grocery store. Their noodle shop in Beijing is also very busy. Brother Mao's pawnshop also needs manpower. We are really helpless!" Huang San explained.
"Since everyone is so busy, I won't keep you here. Please come visit Brother Cheng's house again when you have the chance in the future." Cheng Dayu said while holding Huang San's hand tightly.
