Chapter 71 First Day at Work



In the evening, it was almost ten o'clock when Zhou Jun rode his bicycle home under the stars.

"Why are you back so late?" Xia Yue'e couldn't help but ask when she opened the door for him.

"After I sent Accountant Peng home, I boiled some hot water for him and helped him wash up before I came back," Zhou Jun replied.

"Oh." Xia Yue'e obviously agreed with Zhou Jun's approach, "I heard from my mother that Accountant Peng is the only one left in his family, and he is an old comrade who is worthy of respect.

He drank too much with Dad and Uncle Shen at the third brother's house today. The third brother is not at home, so it's your duty as his elder brother to help take care of him before you come back. ”

As Xia Yue'e spoke, she poured some warm water from the pot for Zhou Jun to wash his face and feet.

Zhou Jun said cheerfully, "I rushed to send Accountant Peng back and took such good care of him, not just to help the third brother."

Xia Yue'e was puzzled, "Then what are you doing this for?"

Zhou Jun analyzed the situation with Xia Yue'e with a smile.

His analysis is exactly the same as Sun Fengjiao's.

After the analysis, he pondered and said, "When I sent Accountant Peng back today, I asked around.

From what Accountant Peng said, it seems that he has accepted my third brother's wife as his student, and I'm afraid that he will probably give this job to my third brother's wife in the future.

When you have nothing to do in the future, please visit your third brother’s wife more often. She is usually alone at home. If we cook something delicious at home, you can bring it to her.

Don't be reluctant. With the people in the commune, it will be much cheaper for us to do anything in the future. ”

After hearing this, Xia Yue'e was still a little surprised.

She knows her man herself. Zhou Jun is usually very stingy, and can be described as not willing to spend a penny.

It's rare to be able to say this today.

After Shen Chuning watched Zhou Jun send the teacher away, he was still very excited.

I also feel like I must find someone to share this happiness with.

He found a pen and paper and wrote a letter to Zhou Yubai under the dim light of the kerosene lamp.

First, tell him that everything is fine at home during this period, and that she has found a teacher and after learning accounting from the teacher, she will be able to take over the teacher's job.

Finally, she wanted to express her longing for the man, but was too embarrassed to write it out directly, so she added a small cute peach heart after her name at the end.

After writing the letter, she packed it together with the scarf she had already knitted, thinking that she could send it to the man during her lunch break when she went to the commune tomorrow.

The next day, Shen Chuning got up early.

She cooked a lot of dishes yesterday and didn’t eat much rice.

In the morning she cooked a tomato and egg soup, mixed it with the leftover rice from yesterday and cooked it into hot rice, and then ate it.

After eating, she pushed her bicycle and prepared to go out to the commune.

Who knew, as soon as the gate was opened, a figure stood up at the door.

It was only half past six and the sky was just getting light. Shen Chu Ning was caught off guard and was frightened before he could even see the person clearly.

Just before she was about to cry, Shen Qingsong saw that his daughter was frightened by him and quickly said, "Don't be afraid, dear girl. It's Daddy."

When Shen Chu Ning heard this, she quickly wiped away the tears from her eyes, "Dad, why did you come here so early? What's the matter?"

Seeing that he had frightened his daughter, Shen Qingsong rubbed his hands awkwardly, "My dear, aren't you going to the commune today? It's not even light yet, and your father is worried about you, a little girl, going to the commune by yourself, so I came to see you off."

Shen Chu Ning: "Dad, I'm getting married..."

Although she felt a little scared when she went out just now and saw that the sky was still dim, she felt a little scared.

But she is already twenty years old and married, so it's time for her to learn to be more independent.

When Shen Qingsong heard this, he immediately pretended to be angry and frowned, "So what if you're married? My dear, as long as your father is here, you'll still be a little girl even if you're a grandmother."

Shen Chu Ning's eyebrows curved and she showed a sweet smile, "Thank you, Dad."

Shen Qingsong took the bicycle from his daughter and stepped on it, "Daughter, get on."

"Let's go!"

Shen Chu Ning sat on the back seat of his father's bicycle, feeling particularly at ease.

It took almost an hour to ride a bike from Cihang Brigade to the commune. When Shen Chuning arrived at the gate of the commune, it was only half past seven.

It was already bright outside, and Shen Qingsong had to hurry back to work.

"My dear, please stand inside, in the courtyard of the commune."

Shen Chu Ning was originally standing at the gate of the commune.

Helplessly, he took two steps back and retreated into the gate.

Shen Qingsong then said with satisfaction: "Well, you just stand inside and wait for the teacher. Don't come out before the teacher comes. There are bad guys outside."

"Dad has to go back to work, so I'm leaving now. I'll pick you up when you get off work."

After giving some instructions, Shen Qingsong rode away on his bicycle.

Shen Chu Ning was helpless, her father was exactly the same as when he sent her to school.

But at that time they didn't ride bicycles. Instead, she rode on her father's neck and her father carried her to school.

Sure enough, no matter how old she is, she is still a child in her father's eyes.

"Hey, aren't you the comrade who saved Accountant Peng last time with a cup of herbal water?"

Shen Chu Ning had just waited in the yard of the commune for a while when someone came on a bicycle.

Although bicycles are in short supply nowadays, half of the people working in the commune ride bicycles to and from get off work.

"Comrade, yesterday Accountant Peng was asking people about you! Please wait here for a while. I'll go call Accountant Peng. He will be very happy if he knows you're here."
