On the other side, Shen Zhengrong was also busy.
Today he asked someone to buy two bottles of good wine, two packs of good cigarettes, two pieces of pork, and two chickens. He also took out his own savings to pack a big red envelope of 500 yuan as a betrothal gift for tomorrow.
After preparing the gifts, he began to try on clothes in front of the mirror.
He is usually a rough guy and doesn't care about his clothes or appearance.
Apart from three sets of military uniforms for replacement, the only summer clothes in the closet were cross-body vests.
So he tried on clothes in vain, as there was no choice at all.
However, he still took out his newest military uniform and ironed it carefully until there was no wrinkle before hanging it up, preparing to wear it to propose marriage tomorrow.
In the room next to him, Shen Qingsong had just ironed a new set of clothes that Shen Chuning had bought for him this year.
Then he took out a pair of torn socks full of patches from his luggage, untied the patches on the openings of the two torn socks, and took out two stacks of Great Unity banknotes from them.
He took the money and was about to go find Shen Zhengrong.
Shen Zhengrong came to see him first.
There was nothing much to exchange between the father and son.
Shen Zhengrong got straight to the point and handed the sealed red envelope of 500 yuan to Shen Qingsong, "Dad, this is the betrothal gift I prepared for Shushu. Please keep it. I will give it to Shushu tomorrow."
The betrothal gift is given by the elders, representing their recognition of their daughter-in-law.
Shen Qingsong also readily accepted the thick red envelope given by Shen Zhengrong.
At the same time, he handed the big unity he had just taken out of his socks to Shen Zhengrong, "Third brother, take these two hundred yuan. This is the money Dad prepared for you to marry a wife."
"Dad..." Shen Zhengrong didn't expect that Shen Qingsong would actually give him money to marry a wife.
He didn't go home very often, so his impression of Shen Qingsong as a father still remained before Shen Chu Ning got married.
At that time, in the mind of Shen Qingsong, the father, everything in the house should belong to his daughter.
Whether it was earned by himself or by the three brothers, they should use it to satisfy Shen Chuning.
In fact, he also had selfish motives. He used to think that his younger sister was a spendthrift, so after joining the army, he only sent half of his allowance back home.
But this amount of money was not enough for Shen Chuning to spend. About four years ago, when Shen Chuning was obsessed with Chen Ziyun, the educated youth, Shen Qingsong even called him and said that he was in the army and did not have to spend money on food, clothing and other expenses, and asked him to send all his allowances back home.
He also had a big fight with Shen Qingsong at that time.
No one knows a son better than his father. Shen Qingsong looked at Shen Zhengrong's dazed look and knew what his son was thinking.
He sighed and said, "Third brother, don't blame Dad for favoring your sister. Our family was poor before, and your sister was pitiful. Your mother died when she was just one month old.
Since she is a girl, her father wants to raise her carefully. ”
"A few years ago, Dad knew that your sister had grown a little crooked.
But fortunately, your sister is as smart as your mother and she knows how to turn back from the wrong path.
Your sister helped arrange the marriages of your eldest brother and second brother. Dad doesn't know whether your sister has given you any help in your relationship.
But no matter what, your sister is a good person, don't blame her. ”
"Dad knows that this little money is definitely not enough for you to marry a wife..."
"Enough, enough, Dad, enough!" Before Shen Qingsong could finish his words, Shen Zhengrong quickly took the money from him.
Men don't shed tears easily, but at this moment his eyes couldn't help but turn slightly red.
It turns out that Dad has always been thinking about him...
He once really hated his biological sister, Shen Chuning, and felt that she monopolized all of his father's love.
But his sister was so pretty that he wanted to be mean to her, but he couldn't bear to do it.
Now that I think about it, my sister was just young and ignorant before.
If it weren't for my younger sister's thoughtful management over the past few years, their family would certainly not be as good as it is now.
Seeing that his son accepted the money, Shen Qingsong didn't say anything more.
She just patted his shoulder and said, "Go to bed early, you still have to propose marriage tomorrow."
When Shen Qingsong turned around and went back to his room, Shen Zhengrong suddenly discovered that his father's back was actually a little hunched.
He seemed to no longer be the tall man who could scare him so much that his legs trembled with just a glare from him.
That night, Shen Zhengrong hardly slept.
While being nervous about proposing marriage tomorrow, I recalled every little detail of my life at home since I was a child.
Thinking of how good his father, two brothers and sister were to him, he felt his heart filled with warmth.
This was the first time since he was a child that he felt happiness so concretely.
The next morning, as soon as Shen Chuning came out of the room, he saw his third brother, who was full of energy and had a silly look on his face.
Shen Chuning: …
She felt that if the third brother had looked so silly when Zhang Shu first met him, Zhang Shu probably would not be interested in him.
Shen Zhengrong personally tied big red flowers on all the things he had prepared yesterday.
Before leaving, he stood straight and turned around in front of Shen Chu Ning, "Little sister, can you help me see how I look in this outfit?"
Shen Chuning: …
Isn’t it just the military shirt and military pants he wears every day?
What’s so good about it?
But after a closer look, she still found the key.
This military uniform was not only much newer than the ones Shen Zhengrong usually wore, but it was also ironed very neatly without any wrinkles.
She gave the third brother a thumbs up and said, "Well, the third brother is very handsome! Handsome and tall, a young talent!"
"Chen Chuning, you're a flatterer!" Shen Zhengrong said with disdain, but the smile on his face became even brighter.
