806: Welcome Home
Chen Ci couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she came over and said softly:
"Did you hear that? Dad always keeps his word. Let's go home with Mom first."
After much persuasion, Chen Ci finally managed to pull her son off Yu Zhengxian's thigh.
When Changning loosened his thighs, he did not forget to tell his father:
"Dad, you must come tomorrow morning. I won't sleep in tomorrow and will definitely get up early to wait for you. Pinky promise!"
"Okay, pinky promise."
Yu Zhengxian hooked his son's tender little finger, and his son pulled it hard, as if the harder he pulled, the more his father would keep his promise.
"Okay, let's go home with Mom?"
"Well, Dad, I'm leaving. Sister, I'm leaving."
Fatty told him:
"Don't sleep in."
"Well, I definitely won't sleep in!"
Changning followed his mother, looking back every few steps.
Yu Zhengxian waved to his son frequently and only looked away after his son entered the yard.
Shen Hongcai was still standing there, waiting for his daughter and grandson to leave before he said to Yu Zhengxian:
"You must come tomorrow. Don't lie to the child. No matter how busy you are, let him see you, otherwise he will be very disappointed."
"Don't worry, old man. I will definitely come tomorrow."
Shen Hongcai nodded:
"That's good."
He looked at Yu Zhengxian, as if he wanted to say something else, but in the end he said nothing.
In fact, Shen Hongcai knew that his grandson had always envied others for having fathers, and often asked where his father was. Every time this happened, Shen Hongcai felt helpless and didn't know how to explain to the child.
Shen Hongcai had really hoped that Yu Zhengxian could come and see Changning. Now that he was finally here, little Changning's dream had finally come true.
Shen Hongcai was very happy, so he had no aversion to his grandson's father.
He nodded at Yu Zhengxian and turned away.
Looking at Shen Hongcai's back, Yu Zhengxian couldn't help but smile.
He didn't expect Shen Hongcai's attitude towards him to be so gentle, nor did he expect Shen Ci to be not as cold to him as before. Although he knew that this was all for the children, he still felt happy.
Although I was happy, I always felt something was wrong.
What's wrong?
After a moment, an alarm bell rang in my mind:
By the way, Li Xinchun!
He forgot to tell Chen Ci that Li Xinchun came to the capital!
After arriving in the capital, he was so busy having fun that he completely ignored this person.
When Yu Zhengxian thought that Li Xinchun was also in Beijing, he felt like there was a knife hanging over his head, ready to fall at any moment.
Should I tell Chen Ci that Li Xinchun is also in the capital?
Then he thought, did Chen Ci already know? Would it be redundant for him to tell Chen Ci again?
Chen Ci hasn't gotten married in these years. Is she waiting for Li Xinchun to be released from prison?
Now that Li Xinchun has finally been released from prison, the two may have already contacted each other.
Thinking of this possibility, Yu Zhengxian felt a surge of bitterness in his heart.
After standing there for a long time, Fatty tugged at his sleeve:
"Master, Master——"
Yu Zhengxian regained his composure, looked down at Fatty, forced a smile, and couldn't help but pinch her chubby cheeks:
"Fat girl, you are really my good niece!"
"Hehe——" Pang Ya laughed so hard that her eyes narrowed into two lines.
"Let's go home. I'll carry you on my back."
"Okay, I like you to carry me on your back!"
Yu Zhengxian squatted down and Fatty climbed onto his back nimbly.
Walking on the busy street, watching the people coming and going, Yu Zhengxian was very happy, but he couldn't be completely happy. He asked Pang Ya behind him:
"If you want to eat something, I'll buy it for you."
Fatty licked her lips:
"Anything?"
"Well, as long as I can buy it, I will definitely buy it for you."
"Uncle, can you buy me a small bean bread?"
"What is adzuki bread?"
"It's just bread, like a bun, soft and filled with sweet red beans."
"Red bean buns?"
"No, it's bread! Buns are steamed, and bread is baked. They're different!"
"Oh—I know what you're talking about. Is it red bean bread?"
"What is red bean bread?"
"It should be the bread you mentioned. We in Northeast China call it big bread, and you call it bread here. Tell me where to buy it and I will buy it for you."
"It's over there, I'll take you there!"
Pang Ya guided Yu Zhengxian to a pastry shop and bought the red bean bread that Pang Ya mentioned. It turned out to be the bread that Yu Zhengxian mentioned.
After buying three red bean breads, Pang Ya lay on Yu Zhengxian's back and ate while walking home.
When I turned into the alley, it was shrouded in dusk.
A black car stopped at the gate of the yard.
When she saw the car, Fatty kicked her legs wildly:
"It's my aunt and uncle! Uncle, put me down, I'm going to find my aunt!"
Yu Zhengxian half-knelt and put Pangya down. As soon as Pangya landed, her legs clattered as she ran towards the gate, shouting:
"Aunt, uncle!"
When Yu Zhengxian saw the car, he guessed it was Zhou Ziheng.
Even in 1980, only senior officials in the unit could ride in a car.
I don’t know whether they came here by chance or on purpose.
Yu Zhengxian quickened his pace and rushed into the yard.
When he arrived at the inner courtyard, Pang Ya had already brought the news that Yu Zhengxian had returned home. A girl with long curly hair in a red dress stood at the door and shouted at him in a loud voice:
“Big Brother!”
Is this his sister?
What a big change!
Yu Xiaoye rushed to his elder brother and looked at Yu Zhengxian with bright eyes:
"Brother, you're back!"
Yu Zhengxian smiled, looked up and down at his increasingly fashionable and beautiful sister, and joked:
"If I were to walk down the street, I wouldn't recognize him."
Yu Xiaoye laughed twice, tears welling up in his smiling eyes:
"Brother, have you seen Changning?"
"Yes, I saw it. Thank you for writing to me and sending me photos over the past two years."
"How is Changning?"
"Very good. His mother took good care of him."
"Does he recognize you? Does he call you daddy?"
When talking about this, Yu Zhengxian's face was full of smiles:
"Yes, we are very good friends."
"That's good, that's good—Brother, come quickly. My mother has cooked a lot of dishes, and Brother Heng also bought some wine."
At this time, Yu Erye rushed out of the house and burst into tears when he saw Yu Zhengxian:
“Big Brother!”
He went forward and hugged Yu Zhengxian, choking with sobs:
"Brother, you're finally home!"
Yu Zhengxian patted the second child on the back, feeling so moved that he didn't know what to say. His nose was also a little sore from crying.
"Well, I'm already a father of three children, and the fourth one is about to be born. I'm not afraid of being laughed at by the children."
Yu Erye still couldn't stop crying.
Zhou Ziheng also came up. After not seeing him for a few years, Zhou Ziheng had hardly changed, but his temperament had become more elegant and steady, and his whole body exuded the dignified and elegant aura of an elite.
Yu Zhengxian pushed the second brother away and said to Zhou Ziheng in a joking tone:
"My uncle is getting more and more energetic."
Zhou Ziheng smiled:
"Welcome home."
"Thank you very much."
