732: Director Zhou, help!
Yu Zhengxian shook his head:
"I, I'm not Li Xinchun."
"no?"
"No, I'm - Yu Zhengxian." Other than that, he didn't know what to say.
"Yu Zhengxian? What's your relationship with Xiaoci?"
“——” This question stumped Yu Zhengxian. He racked his brains but couldn’t think of an answer.
Should I say "I am your son-in-law", or "Your daughter is my wife", or "Chen Ci and I are husband and wife"?
Every word seems so shameless.
Yu Zhengxian was almost injured by this question.
However, truth cannot be hidden. Even if he doesn't say it now, he will still have to face this problem when he arrives in the county. So, instead of hesitating and hiding it now, it is better to take the initiative to reveal it!
Therefore, Yu Zhengxian used up all his courage, looked into Shen Hongcai's eyes and said:
"Chen Ci and I are already married."
“——”
White mist kept coming out of Shen Hongcai's half-open mouth, but he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Yu Zhengxian felt uncomfortable seeing his father-in-law's shocked expression.
But he had to admit the fact even though it was painful, and he said with some trembling:
"She didn't tell you, I just got married to her this year."
Shen Hongcai looked at his son-in-law who suddenly appeared and really couldn't accept this fact.
He knew that his daughter had a boyfriend here before, a local named Li Xinchun, who was a truck driver on the farm.
But since last year, he never heard his daughter mention Li Xinchun again. He thought that the two had broken up, but he never expected that his daughter had actually gotten married here?
And it wasn't Li Xinchun who was mentioned in the letter before, but another man I'd never heard of?!
Why?
How could a daughter who has always been well-behaved suddenly get married without telling her family?
Yu Zhengxian could no longer bear the expression on Chen Ci's father's face, so he turned his eyes away and said:
"I'll take you to see her. When we meet, she'll tell you everything in detail."
Shen Hongcai looked at Yu Zhengxian's back as he left, still unable to figure out the problem, but he didn't want to think about it anymore. He had to find his daughter and ask her in person what was going on.
He let out a long sigh, picked up his luggage and followed.
Yu Zhengxian took Shen Hongcai down the mountain, turned his head quietly to glance at Shen Hongcai, and found that Shen Hongcai was wearing thin clothes. This clothes might be warm enough in Beijing, but in the Northeast, especially in the wilderness of the Northeast, it was not cold at all.
He went home first and found a roe deer skin cloak at home - it was made by Chen Ci himself using four pieces of roe deer skin. He gave the cloak to Shen Hongcai and opened his mouth, thinking that he should call him dad, but he was too embarrassed to do so, so he said nothing and only said:
"Put it on. It's cold on the road."
Shen Hongcai silently took the cloak. He had experienced the weather in Northeast China and knew that the cotton-padded jacket he was wearing was not cold-resistant, so he obediently took the fur cloak handed to him by Yu Zhengxian and put it on.
Wrapping the cloak around myself, I felt much warmer.
Shen Hongcai finally said politely:
"Thank you very much."
Yu Zhengxian replied weakly:
"Don't be polite to me, it's my duty."
Yu Zhengxian wanted to carry Shen Hongcai's bag, but Shen Hongcai refused:
"It's okay, I can do it myself."
Yu Zhengxian didn't dare to snatch it away by force, and silently led Shen Hongcai down the mountain.
Along the way, Yu Zhengxian was afraid that Shen Hongcai would suddenly ask him something, but fortunately, Shen Hongcai didn't say anything. It was just that the atmosphere was extremely awkward, and Yu Zhengxian even breathed carefully.
They came to the stable at the foot of the mountain, led the horse, harnessed the sled, and Yu Zhengxian let Shen Hongcai get on the sled.
Yu Zhengxian sat in the front, wrapped his coat and hat tightly, and whipped the horse.
The wind was whistling in their ears, making it difficult to breathe, let alone speak, so the two of them did not talk to each other even after the horse sleigh had traveled all the way.
This finally allowed Yu Zhengxian to breathe a sigh of relief, and his messy mind gradually returned to normal.
He was thinking about driving a horse-drawn sleigh from the forest farm straight to the county town. Although the journey was a bit longer, it was closer than going to the farm headquarters and then from the farm headquarters to the county town.
Moreover, there are relatively few vehicles traveling between the site and the county town at this time. If you go to the site to wait for a car, you may not be sure when you can wait for a car going the same way, so it is most appropriate to drive the horse sleigh directly to the county town.
But then I thought, no!
You can't do that.
He couldn't take Shen Hongcai there directly. He had to greet his family first so that they could be prepared and Chen Ci could also be mentally prepared.
Shen Hongcai's arrival had already caught him off guard. If he frightened the whole family again, the old couple would definitely kill him!
Yes, say hello first!
After much consideration, Yu Zhengxian gave up the plan of going directly to the county town and went to the field office first. He used Director Wang's phone to call Zhou Ziheng and asked Zhou Ziheng to help deliver a message to his family.
To be honest, he was really scared just now. He never expected that Chen Ci's father would come to him directly. His mind was in a mess.
Now I was finally awakened by the cold wind.
When his mind returned to normal, he suddenly thought of something and slapped his thigh:
Damn it, I didn’t bring the killed fawn and roe deer!
ah!
How could I forget the most important thing!
There was over 60 pounds of meat, cleanly prepared, so how could he have forgotten about it?!
Yu Zhengxian wanted to slap himself twice. If he was halfway there, he could turn back to get it. But now he had already reached the site and could not go back. He had no choice but to pretend to be calm and hurry on while vomiting blood in his heart.
The horse-drawn sleigh finally arrived at the site in the cold wind.
Arriving at the door of Director Wang's office, Yu Zhengxian jumped off the sled and casually threw the reins to Shen Hongcai:
"Wait a minute, I'll make a phone call."
Rushing into the office
Office, no need to be polite:
"Hurry, Director Wang, this is urgent, call Director Zhou! Something big has happened!"
Director Wang was so frightened that he thought something serious had happened. He quickly dialed the number. After dialing the number, while waiting for the call to be connected, Director Wang asked nervously:
"What's the big deal? Did something happen at the forest farm?"
Yu Zhengxian didn't bother to answer. At this moment, a "Hello" came from the receiver. Yu Zhengxian immediately took off his gloves and grabbed the receiver:
"Is that Director Zhou?"
"What's the matter?" Zhou Ziheng felt his heart jump when he heard Yu Zhengxian's voice.
Yu Zhengxian seemed to be grasping at straws:
"Director Zhou, help!"
On the other end of the phone, Zhou Ziheng rubbed his brows and sighed:
"What kind of emergency is this? Your wife is fine in the county town. What's the emergency for you?"
"This time it's not my wife, it's her father, my father-in-law, who found the forest farm!"
"——" Zhou Ziheng was also stunned for a moment, "Did Chen Ci's father find you?"
"Yeah, what should I do? The key is that my father-in-law doesn't know anything yet. He doesn't even know that I'm marrying his daughter, let alone having a child. What should I do? I dare not say anything. He wants to find his daughter, and now I'm taking him to the county town. Can you go home and tell my parents and my wife about this so that they can be mentally prepared? If you don't tell them in advance and just bring them back, who knows what will happen when we meet!!"
