893: Grandpa Hong, may you live a long and healthy life
Yu Erye was as happy as a child seeing his father. No wonder he was so happy. The little knowledge in Yu Erye's head was all instilled into him by Hong Cheng bit by bit with great effort. Without Hong Cheng's patient education, how could he become a glorious national worker?
Therefore, Yu Erye has always been very grateful to Hong Cheng.
Knowing that his mentor had arrived, Yu Erye was so excited that he didn't know what to do.
Hong Cheng looked at his former student and was very happy. He stood up and said:
"Second brother, you've made rapid progress in the past few years!"
"It's all thanks to your cultivation back then!"
Hong Cheng was a little surprised:
"Oh, as expected, now that I'm in the capital, the way I speak is different from before."
He has lost his silly look and now looks much smarter.
Back then, he was so stupid that he could make Hong Cheng mad. He couldn't remember a single word even after being taught repeatedly for many days, and he couldn't speak clearly. Now, he has not only matured, but also improved a lot.
Hong Cheng was very happy to see his students make such great progress.
Yu Erye greeted Teacher Hong, and then hurriedly brought his children over to greet their teacher. Pang Ya led her two younger brothers to stand in front of the amiable grandfather and called him Teacher Hong.
Hong Cheng looked at the group of chubby kids led by the second brother and couldn't help but pinch Fatty's round face:
"The second child is so lucky. Look at all the children he gave birth to. They are so cute. They are so lovely to look at!"
Fatty wasn't angry at the grandfather pinching her face at all. Instead, she smiled at him with her neat, sticky teeth, her eyes narrowed into a line, looking particularly cheerful. Hong Cheng was even happier. He pulled money out of his pocket and gave each child a five-dollar bill:
"Here, grandpa gave it to me, use it to buy food."
Yu Erye hurriedly declined:
"Teacher Hong, you're too polite—Pang Ya, you're not allowed to take it."
Although Pang Ya knew that money was good and could buy a lot of things, her father didn't let her take it. She really didn't dare to take it, so she imitated the adults and pushed Hong Cheng's hand away:
"Grandpa, my dad has money. He has a lot of money, and it's all hidden at the bottom of our cabinet."
"Hahahaha—" Hong Cheng couldn't help laughing, "Girl, you mustn't let the thief hear this. If the thief knows, he will steal the money."
“Grandpa, you are not a thief, so I dare to tell you.”
Hong Cheng laughed again, stuffed the money into the hands of the three children, and said to Yu Erye:
"Second brother, your daughter is so smart and cute - here, take the money. When you buy something delicious later, don't forget to give it to grandpa."
"Grandpa, I don't want it."
Pang Ya was about to push Hong Cheng's hand away again.
Yu Jiahui watched them pushing and shoving each other and said to his granddaughter:
"Pangya, take it. Grandpa gave it to me. Take it."
Fatty: “Okay!”
Pang Ya happily accepted the money given by Hong Cheng.
Yu Jiahui: "Fat girl, thank Grandpa Hong quickly."
Fatty solemnly bowed ninety degrees to Hong Cheng:
"Thank you, Grandpa Hong. May you live a long life!"
"Hahaha--"
Hong Cheng laughed out loud, and then praised Yu Erye:
"Second brother, you are such a smart kid. You have the same demeanor as your aunt did back then."
Yu Jiahui watched Hong Cheng and Fatty talking and laughing happily, and suddenly thought of the little girl who had just been born in the Northeast, the illegitimate daughter of Hong Cheng and Widow Wang. When he thought of this, he felt a little upset and couldn't help asking:
"Hong Cheng, are you still in touch with your old company?"
"Yes, I will write back. Xiao Chuan is now studying at the farm middle school. He has excellent academic performance and is among the top students in the class. He is also very smart. If he is well trained, he will definitely have a bright future. I plan to take him to the provincial capital to attend university."
Hong Cheng also had a loving look on his face when he talked about Widow Wang's son.
Hong Cheng has been in the Eighth Company for more than ten years. He watched the two children grow up. Xiaochuan and Xiaoyuan, a brother and sister, were also students he taught personally. It can be said that he spent more time with those two children than with his own children.
Moreover, those years in the Eighth Company were the most difficult decade or so for Hong Cheng. People often remember the help they receive when they are in trouble the most deeply. For a period of time, the two children even became his spiritual support, so he had a deep affection for them.
After leaving the company and returning to the provincial capital, he was still concerned about their studies and wrote back from time to time to ask about their situation. He also planned to take Xiaochuan to college in the future. If possible, he even wanted to arrange for Xiaochuan to work in the city in the future.
Seeing that Hong Cheng was so concerned about Widow Wang's child, Yu Jiahui wondered what Hong Cheng would think if he knew that Widow Wang had given birth to a girl.
Seeing his father's expression of being unable to stop talking, Yu Xiaoye on the side quickly interrupted:
"Teacher Hong, how long will you be in the capital?"
"I can't stay for more than a few days. I'll leave soon."
"If you have nothing to do these few days, feel free to come over to our house. It will be like your own home. If you go on business to the capital next time, please send us a telegram in advance."
"Okay, then I won't be polite to you."
Hong Cheng had a meal at home. After the meal, Yu Jiahui took Hong Cheng to the inner room to see the antiques, calligraphy and paintings he had collected over the years. Hong Cheng was feasting his eyes.
In the afternoon, Hong Cheng left. Yu Jiahui and Xu Ying finally held back and did not tell Hong Cheng about Widow Wang giving birth.
The old couple breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to write back to Lao Pu, and packed some of the children's supplies and sent them over.
Yu Jiahui couldn't help but whisper to Xu Ying:
"Hong Cheng has been in contact with the company and wants to take Widow Wang's son to the provincial capital to go to school. In my opinion, if this kind of communication continues, this matter will be exposed sooner or later. Sooner or later, Hong Cheng will find out that Lao Pu's adopted daughter is his biological child."
Xu Ying nodded, and felt that Yu Jiahui was right:
"If they can't hide it, then they can't hide it. That's their own business, and it's not for us to interfere. Let's just take it one step at a time."
“Yes, they
We shouldn’t worry about other people’s affairs. We can’t even take care of our own family affairs. "MiM
Yu Jiahui thought of his eldest son who was still imprisoned and didn't know when he would be released.
Thinking of his eldest son, he reminded Xu Ying:
"By the way, after our boss is released, he might remarry."
"Ah? Really? Are you kidding?"
"I'm not kidding you, seriously. Xiao Ye also saw it. You know, our eldest brother has always liked Chen Ci, but Chen Ci was lukewarm towards him. But yesterday, after the eldest brother rescued Chen Ci, guess what happened?"
"What's going on?"
Yu Jiahui came close to Xu Ying and whispered as if telling a secret:
“Chen Ci took the initiative to hug him.”
"Ah?" Xu Ying gasped, but then calmed down. "It was just a hug, and you're thinking about remarriage. Are you overthinking it? It could have been just a simple hug."
Yu Jiahui concluded:
"That wasn't just a simple hug, but one filled with love. If you don't believe me, forget it. Let's wait and see if they can get back together after the boss gets out."
Yu Jiahui turned around and fell asleep with full confidence, leaving Xu Ying alone, still a little skeptical.
