Chapter 99



Feng Guizhi remembered Baoya’s last dream. She said that Song Jianye won an award in the city for the good deeds he did.

Although it was the impostor in the dream who continued to claim the reward, the reality was different from Baoya's dream. The impostor did not claim the reward for "good deeds" last time, and he might even still be in jail for impersonation.

Apart from this, everything else is right.

After all these things happened, Feng Guizhi no longer doubted Baoya's dream. She estimated that if she won the award, it would probably happen in the next few days.

The last time I received a reward from the county, it was a letter of introduction. I wonder what kind of reward I will receive if I win a prize from the city this time?

However, Feng Guizhi didn't think too much about it. After all, it was not her decision whether she wanted to or not.

Whenever she thought about these things, Feng Guizhi couldn't help but think of the dream she had had, and the content of Baoya's dream, and she felt a little uncomfortable. She let out a breath, not wanting to think about those bad things anymore, turned over, closed her eyes and rested.

......

Time passed in the blink of an eye, and it was Friday. Song Jianshe and Li Qingyan, who had not been home for a while, finally came back.

Especially Li Qingyan, who hadn't made it back last time and had stayed in the county town for quite some time, was particularly homesick. She missed not only Tiantian and Yuanbao, but also Feng Guizhi and her sisters-in-law.

Usually we eat and chat together, and there are a few children playing around us. It feels like every day passes by easily.

Now she was in the county town, and because Song Jianshe's job was rather unusual, he couldn't be with her every day. It was fine during the daytime classes, but when she got home at night, it felt a bit lonely and uncomfortably quiet.

After coming back, she immediately felt at ease.

The two of them came back late this time, and everyone in the Song family had already finished their meal. Feng Guizhi took the kerosene lamp and went into the kitchen to make them a simple bowl of egg noodles.

Song Jianshe came in and helped light the fire, while Li Qingyan was thinking about Tiantian, so she asked, "Mom, is Tiantian asleep?"

"I haven't slept yet. The beds and quilts in your room have been dried in the sun, but they haven't been made yet. You can make them first and then go and hug Tiantian." Feng Guizhi said as she poured water into the pot.

"Hey." Li Qingyan responded and went back into the house. After a simple tidy up, she went to Feng Guizhi's room.

Tiantian is lying on the bed obediently at this moment,

Two small hands were playing with their feet, and a pair of eyes were wide open, looking at the ceiling as if thinking about something.

Li Qingyan's heart softened when she saw this, and the corners of her mouth slowly rose.

"Tiantian, mother is back." Li Qingyan sat beside the bed and slowly picked up Tiantian, feeling her heart was filled.

Tiantian blinked and looked at her as if she didn't recognize her, but soon she waved her hands and babbled, "Mom... Mom..."

"Hey, hey." Li Qingyan responded quickly, her heart and eyes filled with the daughter in her arms.

In fact, Tiantian didn’t necessarily recognize Li Qingyan. She just unconsciously said the most familiar words, but when Li Qingyan heard it, it touched her deeply.

After serving two bowls of noodles, Feng Guizhi thought that they must be tired after rushing back, so she didn't ask any more questions. She let them have a good rest and sleep after eating, and then went back to the house.

After Song Jianshe and Li Qingyan finished eating, they simply washed up, coaxed Tiantian to sleep, and then lay down.

Yuanbao had already fallen asleep in the west room, so the two of them didn't go over to bring him back.

Sleeping in the familiar bed with their chubby daughter sleeping beside them, Li Qingyan and Song Jianshe soon fell asleep.

They both slept very well that night and woke up feeling refreshed. Tiantian beside them also woke up and was trying hard to turn over.

Li Qingyan had a smile on her face and played with Tiantian, then said to Song Jianshe: "Go out and wash your face first, and then help our mother sweep the yard."

"Okay." Song Jianshe gently pinched the sweet little face, then stood up, changed his clothes and went out.

When he went out, Song Aiguo and Chen Xiuxiu also came out of the house. Seeing Song Jianshe, they immediately smiled and said, "Old Four is back."

Song Jianshe also smiled and called out, "Brother, sister-in-law."

"Is Qingyan back?" Chen Xiuxiu asked.

"I'm back. I'm in the house with Tiantian."

"That's good, otherwise Yuanbao would cry if he saw you coming back." Chen Xiuxiu said with a smile.

Last time, Li Qingyan didn’t come back. Although Yuanbao didn’t say it, everyone could see that he must be missing his mother. So this time, Li Qingyan and Song Jianshe are both back, and Yuanbao must be happy.

Song Jianshe responded with a smile: "That's right, when the time comes, I won't be able to coax him, I can't compare to his mother."

Later, Song Aimin and Sun Su

The clouds also rose up, and there were a few small ones, and the yard suddenly became noisy.

"Fourth Uncle, you're back?"

"I'll go call Yuanbao. He must not be awake yet."

"I'll go too. I'll go call Tian'en and Xiaobao."

Song Jianshe was sweeping the yard. Seeing the kids going to call Yuanbao, he didn't stop them. He smiled and nodded. Anyway, it was usually around the time Yuanbao would get up.

"Uncle San, Aunt San, can we go in?" Wenjie and Yunduo asked first while standing at the door of the west room.

"Yes, just push the door and come in. Your sister Xiaobao is up too." Yang Yulan's gentle voice was heard in the room.

A few children pushed the door open and went in. Yang Yulan was helping Baoya put on her clothes, and Tianen was bending over to put on his shoes. Only Yuanbao was still holding the quilt and yawning sleepily.

"Yuanbao, get up quickly. Fourth uncle and aunt are back." Wenjie ran to the bed and said.

Yuanbao sat up immediately when he heard this, his eyes shining: "Really? My mother is back?"

"I'm back." Yun Duo nodded affirmatively.

Yuanbao's sleepiness disappeared in an instant. He threw off the quilt and got out of bed. He ran out happily and saw Song Jianshe sweeping the yard outside.

Song Jianshe turned his head and saw Yuanbao. A smile slowly appeared on his face. He said, "Yuanbao, you..."

Before he could finish his words, Yuanbao turned around and went straight into the east room without looking back.

"Mom!~"

Song Jianshe: “…”

Wenjie, Yunduo and the others who came out nearby couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh when they saw this scene.

Song Jianshe turned his head calmly, pretending he hadn't seen anything, and continued sweeping the yard. As expected, no wonder they say a daughter is her father's little cotton-padded jacket, and a son is his mother's military coat.

Song Jianshe secretly made up his mind that he would be more loving and sweet to his daughter in the future, but he must not be too considerate to even his only little girl.

"Fourth...Fourth Uncle." Tian'en shouted happily after bringing Baoya out.

Baoya, who was standing next to him, saw Song Jianshe, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. A smile appeared on her fair face, and she called out, "Fourth Uncle~"

Her voice is soft and her smile is especially sweet.

Song Jianshe felt relieved. It turned out that his daughter was the best.

Breakfast was quickly prepared. Song Jianshe didn't bring much with him this time. He only bought some pig liver, pork belly, and garland chrysanthemum. So Feng Guizhi cooked some pig liver porridge for him this morning. The children all loved it, and some mixed vegetables.

of garland chrysanthemum.

Chinese spinach is cheap, but there is no vegetable garden at home. Feng Guizhi thought that people might not like the stir-fried Chinese spinach, so she steamed it and mixed it with noodles, then drizzled some sauce on it and added two drops of sesame oil. It tasted great.

However, if you want to eat something steamed, it has to be locust flowers, but they are not available in this season, so eating some Chinese spinach can also satisfy your craving.

The little one at the table had already started eating, "This dish is so delicious, so fragrant."

"And my favorite pig liver porridge, it's delicious."

While feeling particularly happy now, the little ones did not forget to bring these back to Song Jianshe.

"Fourth Uncle, I think you are awesome. Every time you come back you bring us delicious food!" Wen Zhi couldn't help but say while eating.

Tian'en and Yunduo beside them nodded in agreement after hearing this.

"Fourth uncle is not that great. It was your grandma's money that bought these flowers." Song Jianshe said mischievously.

"Then grandma and fourth uncle are both powerful." Yun Duo said after thinking about it.

The adults at the table were all amused and happily started eating. Afterwards, after the children finished eating and ran out, Li Qingyan put down her chopsticks, took out some money from her pocket and gave it to Feng Guizhi.

Li Qingyan smiled and said, "Last month's salary was paid, a total of 18 yuan. We kept 5 yuan for ourselves. This is the remaining 13 yuan. Give it to mother."

Feng Guizhi did not refuse and took it directly. Then she counted out nine dollars from it and handed it to Yang Yulan.

"This is what we agreed on before. You take these nine dollars, and the remaining four dollars will be used for our family expenses."

Yang Yulan looked at the money and then at Song Jianye, and then took it.

Chen Xiuxiu and Sun Suyun, standing nearby, looked at the money in Feng Guizhi's hand, feeling somewhat envious. Eighteen yuan a month was a good salary.

But they weren't jealous. Li Qingyan's family only had five of the eighteen yuan. While five yuan wasn't a small amount, eating and buying groceries in the county town required money, so there wasn't much left. And Yang Yulan's nine yuan was even more precious; it was earned by Song Jianye with his broken leg, and it wasn't easy at all.

Moreover, they didn't do anything and just got a share of the four dollars, which was already a bargain. At least, they wouldn't have to worry about the children's tuition in the future.

"How does Qingyan feel about teaching at school? Are there any naughty children?" Chen Xiuxiu asked with a smile.

"There are some naughty ones, but it's okay.

He is a bit more lively, but he is still quite serious in class.”

"So your school..."

Chen Xiuxiu and Sun Suyun asked Li Qingyan a few questions out of curiosity, then stopped Li Qingyan from cleaning up and went into the kitchen with the dishes.

Feng Guizhi looked at her two daughters-in-law with a faint smile on her face.

This person knows that being grateful is a good thing.

She had chosen all of her daughters-in-law correctly; each one was excellent. As long as the family stayed together, their future would be better and better.

......

After breakfast, the kids went out to play together. They played around in the group in the morning and then ran to the back mountain in the afternoon.

On the way, Yuanbao thought of the persimmons he had eaten a few days ago, and also thought of Shen Yibei. He frowned and said to his brothers with some worry:

"Brother Yibei seems to have had an accident."
