Is this her step-brother-in-law? She just taught him how to use the toilet?
"Mu Sen, come and meet your brother and sister-in-law."
Seeing Lin Musen coming in, Zhang Shuqin hurriedly pulled him to Zhan Beiqin and Ren Rongzheng.
"This is your brother. He's a brigade commander, a high-ranking official in the military region. He's quite impressive. This is your sister-in-law. Her father was the director of a steel mill. Now she's even building her own factory and doing business. She's a strong woman."
From the tone of Zhang Shuqin's voice, they understood the purpose of her and her son coming here.
"Hello, brother and sister-in-law. My name is Lin Musen. Please...please take care of me."
Before coming, Zhang Shuqin specifically asked him to memorize the lines and make sure to tell the couple to take care of them.
"Lin Musen?" Ren Rongzheng read the name. "Six woods? What an interesting name."
"It was given to him by his late father. It doesn't mean anything. His father worked as a lumberjack in a forest farm. The day Mu Sen was born, there was a bumper harvest.
His father's surname was Lin, so he was given this name. However, this child had a miserable life. Just a few days after he was born, his father was killed by a falling tree while cutting wood.
Later, a fortune teller said that his name was unlucky because it contained too much wood, which is why his father was killed by a tree. But since he was already called that, he didn’t change it.
Zhang Shuqin was a talkative person and immediately revealed her past.
So Ren Rongzheng's previous guess was correct. Zhang Shuqin took Lin Musen to marry Zhan Tianzhu. Now coming to them is a kind of refuge, isn't it?
She was originally very happy to hear that her mother-in-law died early, but then a new mother-in-law suddenly appeared, and also a blood-sucking brother-in-law.
"As for the name, it's just a code name. Don't listen to those crappy masters. Lin Musen sounds nice. No need to change it." That was all Ren Rongzheng could say.
When Lin Musen arrived, the whole family was present, a particularly scattered and unfamiliar family.
After that, the family started to eat. Except for Zhan Nanjin, the other three expressed surprise and shock at the fresh food.
"It's a big city, a big hotel indeed. I've never even heard of these names before. I'm so old, and I'm suddenly blessed."
"If you like it, eat more. You won't find these things in our village." Zhan Tianzhu hurriedly picked up some food for Zhang Shuqin and explained to them as he did so. "You heard it just now. Your Aunt Zhang had a hard life. Her husband died young. She's been both a father and a mother to Musen all these years."
After hearing this, Ren Rongzheng could only smile politely. As a father-in-law, he really doted on his second-married wife.
It can be seen that, excluding Zhan Beiqin, the remaining family of four seems to be quite harmonious.
"Brother, hurry up and eat. You haven't even touched your chopsticks since the beginning."
Seeing that Zhan Beiqin didn't eat much, Zhan Nanjin hurriedly picked up a piece for him, but before he put it in his bowl, he pushed it away.
"Don't worry about me, just eat by yourself."
"Oh, okay."
Zhan Nanjin felt a bit disappointed and could only lower his head and start eating by himself.
Ren Rongzheng also took a look and found that Zhan Beiqin did not seem to be very friendly towards his family, because he was the head of the military region. Although she was his junior, Zhang Shuqin was not his biological mother after all.
Seeing that he didn't speak, she didn't dare to speak either, so she winked at Zhan Tianzhu, who put down his chopsticks and said to Zhan Beiqin:
"Beiqin, the most important reason we came here this time is to see my daughter-in-law. You have been married for such a long time, but I have never seen what my daughter-in-law looks like.
I came to see you today and I am very satisfied. You see, the wife you found is beautiful, virtuous, and comes from such a good family. We are all very satisfied.
Secondly, we came to send your sister to school. She was admitted to a university here, so we had to come and see her school. Thirdly, we came for Mu Sen.
Mu Sen is about the same age as you. He has no future in our village. Your aunt Zhang and I think there are more opportunities for development in big cities.
You see, you're a high-ranking official now, and my wife is so capable that she wants to run her own factory and become its director, so... I'm thinking about whether I can arrange a job for her or something."
"Yes." Zhang Shuqin now also had an attitude of begging for help, with a particularly flattering smile, "Any job is fine. Musen has been strong and healthy since he was a child and has never been sick. He can do all the dirty and tiring work. As long as you can find him a job here and make some money..."
"Ah, yes, that's what your Aunt Zhang and I meant. Just make arrangements for the two children, and we'll come and stay for a few days, then leave. We won't disturb your lives."
Asking for help is always humble. The two people spoke in a very flattering and awkward manner. Lin Musen was even more so. He didn't even dare to eat. He just hung his head and didn't say a word.
"If I were still single, I would have expressed my opinion, but now I'm married. After marriage, Rong Zheng has the final say on all matters big and small in the family."
After Zhan Beiqin finished speaking, he looked at Ren Rongzheng and asked, "Rongzheng, what do you think of what Dad and Aunt Zhang said?"
Hearing Zhan Beiqin say this and seeing his hypocritical expression, Ren Rongzheng almost bit his back teeth off.
Dog man!
They didn't even leave her dinner and still set rules for her, and now she has the final say?
"I think it took a lot of courage for Dad and Aunt Zhang, as elders, to bring this up with us, the younger generation. I also think that brother Musen is really a down-to-earth and capable person.
Husband, you are now the brigade commander and a favorite of Commander Zheng. As the saying goes, one should remember the person who dug the well when drinking water. You can be where you are today thanks to your father’s upbringing.
