To be honest, Shen Yu was very filial to me in the past.

Back then, Shen Yu was also a good young man in the area.

Thousands of words merged into a sigh. He took the handkerchief, held it under his nose and sniffed it. His eyes lit up, but there was doubt in his eyes, "This is really an old mountain ginseng that is more than a hundred years old, but why is it so fresh, as if it was just dug out of the soil..."

Shen Yu's expression remained unchanged. "I bought it not long ago and I kept it very carefully."

Chen Laoguo nodded and looked at Shen Yu, "It's rare that you are so thoughtful. Your mother and I will accept your kindness."

"Dad, this is what we should do. Xiaoli and I will be doubly filial to you in the future." Shen Yu's voice was not loud, but it was full of assurance.

Shen Mingxi took out a radio and waved it to give his father extra credit. "Grandpa, here's a radio. My dad bought it for you..."

How could Chen Laoguo not know the radio? This little black box was his favorite. Sometimes, he even dreamed about it.

He was stunned at first, then his face changed, his fingers trembling, "Xiaoxi, be careful, don't break it, it's a treasure..."

Everyone in the room laughed.

Shen Mingxi handed the radio to Chen Laoguo and said with a smile, "Grandpa, this radio can receive many radio stations."

"Can we receive the Biography of Yue Fei?" Chen Laoguo asked impatiently.

"Of course I can, and it's very clear..."

Chen Laoguo held the radio in both hands, carefully, as if he was holding a treasure.

Grandma Chen wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and held her daughter's hand to watch her. She thought she would never see her again in this life.

Shen Mingxi took out a hairpin with a bow and put it on Xiaoduo, and took out a tin pencil case with a fox and an elephant printed on it for Xiaofeng. Shen Mingxi considerately put an eraser and a pencil in it.

Xiaofeng couldn't let go of the pencil case. It was the first time he saw his cousin from his eldest aunt's family. He looked at Shen Mingxi with his dark eyes, and then glanced at his grandfather.

At this time, Chen Laoguo was sitting obediently on the kang, waiting for Shen Yu to change the radio channel for him.

I don’t have the time to take care of my eldest grandson.

Chen Gang smiled innocently, "Xiao Feng, why don't you thank your third sister quickly."

"Thank you, Third Sister."

Xiaoduo was a little shy. She just bit her lip and looked at Shen Mingxi, her big eyes blinking. You know what, she looks like Yaya.

A sense of intimacy arose spontaneously, she pinched Xiaoduo's cheek and teased her, "Call me Third Sister, and Third Sister will give you candy."

Eat candy?

Xiao Duo's eyes lit up immediately, and she asked timidly, "Third sister."

Shen Mingxi happily agreed, took out a handful of candy, and shared it with Xiaoduo and Xiaofeng, and also reminded them, "This candy is White Rabbit, which was mailed by a little brother from Beijing. But don't eat too much, or your teeth will get worms."

These words scared Xiaoduo so much that she quickly covered her mouth.

The candy in his hand was half peeled, and he looked at it eagerly, swallowed his saliva, but did not dare to put it in his mouth.

Xiao Feng didn't care and put the candy into his mouth after peeling it. It was so sweet and fragrant. It was the first time for him to eat such delicious candy in his life.

Shen Mingxi laughed, peeled the candy and put it to Xiaoduo's mouth, "Eat it, I mean eat it every day, a big handful a day..."

Xiaoduo was relieved.

It's impossible to eat it in large handfuls.

She quickly put the candy into her mouth, and the little girl's eyes were curved with sweetness.

Chen Li also came over at this time. She was unable to attend her brother's wedding and felt extremely guilty. She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and started to take out the things with Shen Mingxi.

A lot of things, including food, clothing and daily necessities.

Grandma Chen blamed Chen Li with distress, "You just separated and haven't started living yet. How much does it cost to buy so many things? Listen to mother and take them back when you go home. We are very happy that you are here..."

This is my real mother.

Naturally, they had to stay at Chen's house for lunch. Yao Shanxing was a skilled cook and she took out all the meat that was going to be saved for the New Year. In addition, she added the fish that Shen Yu and the others brought. Although there were only home-cooked dishes on the table, the smell was very fragrant.

Especially the chicken stewed with dried potatoes, which is paired with a handful of vermicelli. The dried potatoes have the aroma of chicken, and the vermicelli is chewy and translucent. A handful of mushrooms are also added, and it is served with a bowl of millet rice. It is so delicious.

Shen Yu also taught Chen Laoguo how to turn on and off the radio, how to change batteries, and how to change channels.

What Chen Laoguo remembers most clearly is the channel where he could listen to storytelling.

Remember it firmly.

He is really happy today.

While eating, the three men drank a bottle of wine together.

Then I also found out that Shen Yu's family was left with nothing.

Grandma Chen's face looked unhappy, and even an honest person like Yao Shanxing felt that they were going too far.

Shen Mingxi thought that grandpa would be angry, but he frowned, then relaxed his brows and waved his hand with a heroic gesture, "A good man does not eat the meal of a divided family, and a good woman does not wear the dress she wore when she got married. If you are lazy and greedy, you will squander the gold and silver mountains even if I give you a mountain of gold and silver. If you are hardworking and capable, you can start from scratch even if you have nothing. Look at your life now, isn't it?"

Shen Yu didn't expect that his father-in-law didn't seem to complain at all.

He also nodded quickly, "Dad, what you said makes sense. As long as we work hard, our lives will definitely get better and better."

Chen Laoguo drank the wine in the glass, and suddenly sneered, "The parents in your family are the most unsuccessful. They treat dirt and clods of earth as treasures, and don't even think about what they were like when they fled from Yuncheng. Son-in-law, I'm not trying to sow discord. I heard from Master Li Wu that your name was given to you by the captain of the work team stationed in Kaoshantun. Otherwise, you wouldn't even have a name..."

Shen Yu was stunned for a moment, and clenched his chopsticks. He asked in a deep voice, "Who told you that my mother and her friends escaped from Yuncheng?"

"Your father told me himself. At that time, you had just gotten engaged and he was drunk. But he refused to admit it afterwards..."

As Chen Laoguo was about to pour the wine, Shen Yu quickly stopped him, "Dad, you can't drink too much of this wine."

"It's okay. I'm happy today. I haven't seen my daughter for more than ten years. Can I drink a few more cups?"

Chen Laoguo stared at Shen Yu.

Shen Yu smiled, and reluctantly let go of his hand, filling his father-in-law's glass, and then filling his own glass. Of course, there was also his brother-in-law's glass. Today, he decided to risk his life to accompany his father-in-law and brother-in-law.

Actually, he doesn't like drinking.

But today is a special day.
