Cheng Xiuyun died, but she still had her eyes open.
Cheng Dayong cremated her body on the spot and took the ashes back to Jinshi.
As for Shi Xiuneng, he was shot shortly afterwards for wounding and killing someone.
The reason why Shi Xingrui was sent to the Northwest for labor reform was because the Wen family was behind it, and her parents were here.
Now Cheng Xiuyun and Shi Xiuneng are both dead, and Cheng Dayong wants to take Shi Xingrui back to Jinshi because he feels a little guilty about Cheng Xiuyun's death.
But now it is 1984, and the country issued the "Decision on Severely Cracking Down on Criminal Crimes" last year, and the severe crackdown is still going on.
Some people were sentenced to more than ten years for stealing things from the cafeteria, and some minors were sentenced to seven or eight years for robbing a few dimes on the street.
Shi Xingrui almost killed a life. She was lucky that she was not re-sentenced and shot. How could she be allowed to go back to Jinshi?
Without a father or a mother, she would have to live with other criminals. It would be impossible to reduce her sentence.
Cheng Dayong had no choice but to take Cheng Xiuyun's ashes with him.
Shi Xingrui looked at her uncle's back as he left, crying heartbreakingly, with fear in her eyes, and no longer had the arrogance and anger she had before.
She knew that from now on, no one could protect her, and she had to live here alone.
The Wen family still knew about Cheng Xiuyun's death.
After discussing with Tong Xulu, Old Man Wen did not hide it from Wen Rugui.
Wen Rugui was teaching the twins at the time. After being called out by Tong Xuelu, he was stunned for a moment, then he said, "I know."
Tong Xuelu looked at his face and held his hand: "Tell me what you think, don't keep it in your heart."
Wen Rugui realized that she was worried about him being sad, and held her hand back: "I'm fine, I just didn't expect that she was serious this time."
That day, Cheng Dayong came to find them, and he subconsciously thought that this was another trick and means of theirs. In the past three years, the Cheng family has contacted him several times.
He knew clearly what their purpose was in apologizing and flattering.
But he didn't expect Cheng Xiuyun to be really dead. He was shocked when he heard the news just now.
As for being upset, he didn't feel it.
Tong Xuelu was relieved to see that he really didn't look upset: "I'll go to the kitchen to make something for you. What do you want to eat?"
The warm spring sunshine shone down, and many green buds emerged on the branches of the trees in the yard. Yuebing and the quicksand buns walked back and forth under the wall, looking like two guards.
There was a fat orange cat basking in the sun in the corridor. It was the cat they raised two years ago. Its name was Green Turtle. It finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish.
Seven of the ten orange cats were fat. Green Turtle was a little girl. She was skinny and small when she was first brought home. Two years later, she is now a solid fat kid like Xiao Yanyan, not just fat.
As if sensing the owner's gaze, it opened its eyes, meowed softly, and then lazily closed its eyes and continued to sleep.
Wen Rugui retracted his gaze, looked around to see if there was anyone, went over and kissed her on the face and said, "As long as you do it, I like it."
As soon as the words fell, two baby voices rang out in the study.
"Daddy kissed Mommy again. Daddy kisses Mommy many times a day at home. Daddy is ashamed."
"Daddy is not ashamed. Daddy will spank you later!"
Wen Rugui's ears turned red all of a sudden. He turned around and saw his son and daughter lying at the door and peeking at them.
Seeing Dad looking over, the two siblings screamed and ran back to the house.
Tong Xuelu stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the face, smiling and saying, "Beat him gently."
After that, she turned and walked towards the kitchen.
Wen Rugui watched her back as she walked around the corner, then returned to the study.
When Xiao Yanyan saw his father coming in, he covered his eyes with his chubby paws, and murmured with his little lips: "Dad can't see me, Dad can't see me."
Xiao Ranran blinked her big watery eyes, and her little face showed a look of contempt: "Brother, you are deceiving yourself and others, you are so stupid."
Xiao Yanyan is not stupid. He knows that he has done something wrong, so he pretends to be stupid and hopes that his father will not pursue it.
Wen Rugui looked at the two lively and lovely children, pursed his lips, and looked at the test papers in front of them: "Have you finished it?"
"Finished."
The two siblings responded in a baby voice.
Wen Rugui put away the test papers of the two people, then quickly scanned them, and the arc of the corners of his mouth rose another two points.
These two exam papers are for first-grade math and Chinese, and the two siblings got all the answers right.
Previously, the family sent the two little guys to kindergarten, but they found it boring after only one day, saying that they knew everything the teacher taught, and the other kids didn’t understand anything and could only cry and play in the mud.
The two went for three days and didn’t want to go anymore.
The two siblings have shown an IQ different from that of ordinary children since they were seven or eight months old, and they learn things very quickly. After discussing, they feel that they don’t have to follow the path of other children.
So he gave them a first-grade test paper today. If they pass the test, they can skip kindergarten and study at home.
When they are older, they will be sent to a genius school. At present, the two are too young and no school is willing to accept them.
"Dad, did we get full marks?" Little Yanyan looked at her father with eyes like black grapes, and her chubby face was full of confidence.
Little Ranran also looked at her father expectantly.
Wen Rugui rubbed his daughter's head: "Full marks, but you two don't go to kindergarten, you have to be obedient at home, Grandpa is old, you can't tire him out."
Grandpa Wen's memory has declined a lot in the past two years, but because he lived a comfortable life and took early prevention, he has never developed Alzheimer's disease in his life.
"I know, Dad, we are the best."
Tong Xulu made a steamed sea bass, jade tofu, flying wings (double-flavor duck rolls), and fried some vegetables, and the table was complete.
Steamed sea bass is Wen Rugui's favorite. The fish is tender and smooth, and the taste is light. He never gets tired of it.
Mr. Wen’s teeth have deteriorated a lot in the past two years. He can’t chew anything too hard. His favorite food is jade tofu.
The main ingredients of Jade Tofu are tofu and lettuce. After cleaning, cut the lettuce into long slices and cut the tofu into thick slices. After the oil is hot, add ginger and stir-fry until fragrant. Add water and lettuce, and then add tofu after one or two minutes.
It is not difficult to make, but this dish is light and healthy, very suitable for Grandpa Wen and Uncle Zong.
The two little guys like to eat double-flavor duck rolls the most.
Double-flavor duck rolls are made of roasted duck skin and egg skin into rectangles, then rolled into shrimp, chopped green onions and cooked pine nuts to make rolls, dipped in egg liquid and bread crumbs, and the two ends are also dipped in chopped coriander and ham, and then put into hot oil to fry. The
fried double-flavor duck rolls are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. They are crunchy when you bite them. The two little guys like them the most.
Grandpa Wen asked, "Your grandpa said that your brothers and sisters will be home next week?"
Tong Xuelu nodded, "Yes, Jiaming will graduate this year. I heard that he wants to start a company in Shenzhen. The drama of Mian Mian is almost over."
Xiao Jiaming was admitted to Tsinghua University to study finance three years ago and performed very well in school.
He showed his talent in business earlier than in his previous life. Since two years ago, he no longer needs money from his family, and he often brings money back home.
Tong Jiaxin was admitted to the Air Force Aviation University and plans to join the army to follow the military and political route.
When his grandfather took him to the army, everyone thought he wouldn't like it or wouldn't stick with it. Unexpectedly, he not only stuck with it, but also achieved good results in various trainings.
In his previous life, Tong Jiaxin was a fashion designer. Now that his life has changed, Tong Xuelu doesn't know if he will meet his wife again.
After all, Tong Jiaxin regretted his wife's death in his previous life and lived in pain for the rest of his life.
Xiao Mianmian participated in Director Huang's TV series three years ago and became a hit. She became famous all over the country and became a child star known to everyone in the country.
When she was the most popular, her pictures were everywhere in the streets and alleys, and every family with a TV was playing the TV series she starred in.
She also sang the theme song of the TV series, which even three-year-olds can sing.
Little Ranran blinked her big eyes and said, "Ranran misses auntie."
Although little Ranran is very cold, she admires Xiao Mianmian, who is beautiful and good at acting.
Little Yanyan had no time to speak, and ate double-flavor duck rolls one after another, until his belly was round.
He completely forgot about his promise to his mother to lose weight.
Seeing this, Tong Xuelu took away the remaining double-flavor duck rolls and didn't let him eat any more.
Being fat is one thing, but eating too much affects your health.
Little Yanyan pouted: "Mom, Yanyan wants to eat another piece, just one piece!"
The little bun looked aggrieved, with red eyes, and looked very pitiful.
Grandpa Wen couldn't stand it all of a sudden: "Xuelu, let him eat, look at how thin the child is."
Tong Xuelu: "..."
Wen Rugui: "..."
There is a kind of thinness, that is, the grandfather thinks you are thin.
**
It was time for Jiang Baihui and Liang Tianyi to return home.
Because the security at the airport was not particularly good, Tong Xuelu did not plan to take the two little guys there.
Little Yanyan took advantage of the fire: "Mom, Yanyan wants to eat ice cream, bear cake, and fried chicken legs."
Tong Xuelu pinched his chubby face: "You can only have one."
Little Yanyan pouted: "Then bear cake."
Little Ranran was kissed twice by his parents, and only asked for a doll, and then let his parents go out.
Although Tong Xuelu's business was very prosperous, he still didn't buy a car.
The main reason is that she thinks the price-performance ratio is not high. Currently, a Santana costs 250,000 RMB. She thinks it will be more cost-effective to buy it in two years.
So this time when picking up Jiang Baihui, Xiao Chengping borrowed a car from his unit.
After the four people met, Tong Xuelu and Fang Jingyuan naturally sat in the back seat.
Wen Rugui had to sit in the co-pilot: "If you get tired later, you can let me drive."
He was a little jealous when he first knew that Xiao Chengping liked Tong Xuelu, but as friends over the years, he had already let it go.
The reason why the two of them were often speechless was that they could not talk to each other at all.
Fang Jingyuan chattered excitedly: "What do you think Bai Hui has become? Judging from the photos that guy sent us two years ago, she was very fashionable."
Tong Xuelu: "She should be more beautiful."
Jiang Baihui was not a person who would wrong herself when she was in college.
She is very good at socializing, and she will create conditions for herself even if there are no conditions.
Although she was a little uncomfortable when she first went to the German diplomatic embassy, she did a good job after adapting.
Two years ago, she sent back photos. In the photos, she was wearing a suit, with exquisite makeup, tall, beautiful and intellectual, which was very different from her appearance when she went abroad.
Now two years have passed, she should have become more beautiful.
They talked all the way to the airport.
After waiting for more than half an hour, the plane from Germany to Beijing finally arrived.
Fang Jingyuan held up a sign that read "Welcome Liang Tianyi and Jiang Baihui back home."
Returning passengers kept coming out, and the four of them stared at the exit without blinking.
Fang Jingyuan was tired of holding up her hand, but she didn't dare to put the sign down.
But when everyone left, Liang Tianyi and Jiang Baihui were nowhere to be seen.
The four of them were confused.
What's going on?
Didn't they agree to take the flight at 12 o'clock?
Fang Jingyuan put down the sign, rubbing her arm and worrying, "Xuelu, do you think Germany will not let them return home?"
When Dean Jiao wanted to return to China, the United States would not let him come back and detained him. Later, the country intervened, and he returned to his motherland after going through many hardships.
Tong Xulu shook her head: "Probably not, things are different now than before."
Although Liang Tianyi is a top student, he is not on the same level as Jiao Bolun.
Moreover, the current international situation and the country's international status are no longer the same as they were back then. There is no need for Germany to hold back on releasing him.
Wen Rugui paused: "I'll make a phone call and ask."
Liang Tianyi will join the scientific research department after returning to China, and the cost of his trip abroad was borne by the country. Someone in the relevant department should know about his whereabouts.
Wen Rugui was gone for about ten minutes, and when he came back, his face was not very good.
Tong Xuelu frowned: "What's wrong? Could it be that they really won't release him?"
Wen Rugui looked at her: "No, it's because Comrade Jiang is not feeling well, so they changed to take tomorrow's plane back."
The air was quiet for a few seconds.
The next moment, Fang Jingyuan threw the sign to Xiao Chengping, and said with a hint of dissatisfaction: "I understand that you feel uncomfortable, but couldn't they let someone inform us in advance to change the flight to tomorrow?"
It takes more than an hour to drive from the city to the airport, and we have to wait here for almost an hour. Isn't their time worth it?
