Chapter 117: Meeting an Old Friend on the Farm



Han Zhenyu said embarrassedly: "Leader, this farm is quite large, and I am not familiar with it. Can you send someone to go with me?"

As he said that, he gave him all the remaining cigarettes.

"Okay, no problem, it's nothing at all?"

The manager didn't take his cigarette, but said enthusiastically: "Comrade, you are welcome. You can ask any questions you have. You have come all the way here to help our farm transport food. We are grateful to you."

"The leader is so enthusiastic. We are all serving the people." Han Zhenyu asked with a smile: "My name is Han Zhenyu. May I know your last name, leader?"

The manager said with a smile: "My last name is Chen, Chen Yuanming, you can just call me Old Chen."

"I can tell from the leader that he is a straightforward person." Han Zhenyu sighed with a smile, "I haven't met someone with such a good temper in a long time. If the leader doesn't mind, I will call you Brother Chen from now on."

Chen Yuanming smiled heartily after hearing what he said, patted his shoulder and said, "Brother Han, I am so happy that you can call me brother, how could I possibly dislike you? If you don't mind me being a rough guy, then we can call each other brothers from now on."

He has worked on this farm for seven or eight years and his family doesn't have any strong connections.

Being a small leader here is all due to my own ability, so I am very good at handling interpersonal relationships.

Now that Han Zhenyu has taken the initiative to show goodwill, he must maintain this relationship at all costs.

This is a driver in the city. You don’t usually get to meet people like him.

Han Zhenyu smiled and said, "This is really fate. When I came here, I never thought that I would find a brother here."

After the two exchanged a few pleasantries, Han Zhenyu pointed at the man who had just been scolded and said, "Brother Chen, why don't you ask him to help me find the way? He doesn't seem to be very efficient, so he shouldn't delay the loading of the truck."

Chen Yuanming glanced at the man and whispered, "That man is a bad guy from the city. If you get close to him and he affects you again, I will replace him with someone else."

"Brother Chen, it's okay. I just asked him to lead the way. I won't talk to him." Afraid that Chen Yuanming would get suspicious, he added, "Change to someone who can work efficiently. I'm afraid it will delay the loading."

"Okay, then let him take you there. Remember, don't pay any attention to him."

Chen Yuanming didn't doubt that they knew each other, he just thought that Han Zhenyu was thinking about him.

Chen Yuanming knew that several of the bad guys here were from Beijing.

Han Zhenyu is from Nanping County. How could they know each other when they are from two completely unrelated places?

Jiang Shaoting recognized Han Zhenyu when Han Zhenyu and Chen Yuanming were talking.

But he had no intention of recognizing him, and was afraid that Han Zhenyu would recognize him, so he deliberately lowered his head while working.

Han Zhenyu was the savior of him and his wife. Given his current situation, if others knew that he and Han Zhenyu knew each other, it would only implicate him.

Chen Yuanming shouted, "Jiang Shaoting, take this comrade to the cafeteria."

Jiang Shaoting paused, hummed without raising his head, put the food in his hand on the truck, and took Han Zhenyu to the farm canteen.

Han Zhenyu walked behind him, looking at the man who was once full of vigor and vitality, now with a hunched back and head lowered, and felt a little depressed.

The two walked for a while, and Han Zhenyu saw that there were not many people around, so he whispered: "Comrade Jiang, how are you here? Are you here alone, or are your family here with you?"

Jiang Shaoting saw that he was not surprised at all to see him here, so he knew that Han Zhenyu must know that something had happened in his family.

He did not hide it and smiled bitterly, "Zhenyu, our whole family is here, from now on just pretend you don't know me, and there is no need to say hello when we meet, so as not to cause trouble for yourself."

After hearing what he said, Han Zhenyu sighed in his heart, and guessed that Jiang Shaoting probably didn't know that his two children were being raised at home.

He thought for a moment and whispered, "Comrade Jiang, Chenchen and An'an are at my home. Don't worry, my wife and I will take good care of them."

Jiang Shaoting looked at him in shock, "Zhenyu, what did you say? My Chenchen and An'an are in your house?"

After he finished speaking, he realized that he was too excited, so he quickly turned around and lowered his head.

Han Zhenyu smiled and nodded. "Comrade Gu Fangxun asked me and my wife to take care of them. Comrade Gu went to my house to find out more and stayed at my house for a few days, so don't worry, we will never treat Chenchen and An'an unfairly."

He said this not to show off his family's achievements, but just to tell Jiang Shaoting that your brother-in-law had learned about our family's situation before deciding to place the child in our home for foster care.

Jiang Shaoting was silent for a long time before he said, "Zhenyu, I'll trouble you from now on. You've seen my situation, and I'm afraid I can't repay you. My wife and I can only remember this favor in our hearts."

"Comrade Jiang, you are too kind. Comrade Gu Fangxun left a lot of money when he left, enough to raise Chenchen and An'an, so you don't have to feel like you owe us anything."

Jiang Shaoting smiled bitterly and said, "Zhenyu, how can your kindness to our family be erased by a little money?"

"You saved me and my wife a few years ago, and now you are helping me raise my child. I don't know if I will ever have the chance to repay you for such a great favor."

Han Zhenyu saw that he was so pessimistic and knew that their current situation must be bad, so he didn't know how to comfort him.

"Comrade Jiang, does your family live together?" Han Zhenyu wanted to understand their current situation and see if he could help.

Jiang Shaoting shook his head. "Our whole family is on the farm, but we are not assigned together. My eldest brother, his wife, and my younger brother are assigned to the second team, and my wife, my parents, and I are assigned to the third team. But we don't live far away, just two rows of houses apart."

He thought of his father-in-law's family, and asked hurriedly: "By the way, Zhenyu, did Fang Xun tell you about the situation at home? Do you know how my father-in-law and mother-in-law are now? And Fang Xun, has he been implicated by our family?"

Han Zhenyu told him everything he knew. "Comrade Gu said that his parents were taken into custody and he was transferred to the Northwest Military Region. I'm not sure about the specific situation, but it shouldn't be as serious as your family's."

"That's good, that's good. This way my wife won't have to worry anymore." Jiang Shaoting said thankfully.
