It took the two of them two and a half hours just to walk to the old leader's team. Fortunately, Zhang Yunxi had been trained, and walking was no longer a big deal for her. Otherwise, she would have been in a very awkward position when meeting her elders.
The old leader lived in the cowshed, which was the most remote and dilapidated place in the entire village. He was surrounded by straw. Zhang Yunxi didn't know if he was warm or not. "Is this captain easy to get along with?"
“Not bad.”
At least it doesn't torture people.
"That's good." Zhang Yunxi sighed.
It will take another six years for this period to be over.
In six years, I don’t know what will change.
Zhao Rencheng stepped forward and knocked on the door in a rhythm that the old leader could understand.
The couple who were sleeping in the room suddenly opened their eyes.
"It must be Xiaocheng!" The old leader stood up suddenly.
The master's wife quickly stopped him and said, "Don't get excited. I'll light the kerosene lamp and open the door."
When there was a ray of light in the room, Zhang Yunxi became nervous. She wanted to stay calm, but sometimes the nervousness was completely out of control.
The wooden door creaked, and a white-haired woman came out, looking at Zhao Rencheng lovingly: "Xiaocheng, why are you here so late?"
"I'll show you my partner."
Zhang Yunxi, who was standing behind Zhao Rencheng, immediately bowed and greeted him, "Hello, Master's Wife."
The mistress was startled and looked at Zhang Yunxi. It is said that beauty is best seen under the lamp. The girl she was looking at with the kerosene lamp was so beautiful that she was amazed: "Hey, hello, it's cold outside, come in."
The old leader in the room also saw Zhang Yunxi. Although he was old, his eyes were sharp. He scanned Zhang Yunxi's body. The little girl had a clear look and seemed a little nervous, but she was neither humble nor arrogant. She did not show any disgust when she came to their cowshed and was really willing to come. The old leader really felt that she was willing to live with Zhao Rencheng.
It wasn't his mean intentions that forced Zhao Rencheng to bring Zhang Yunxi to see him.
He knew Zhao Rencheng well, and would definitely spend the family's money on him in the future. As someone who would form a family with him, she should be aware of what Zhao Rencheng was doing. At present, it seemed that the girl was aware of it and was willing to do so.
"Don't scare the little girl." The master's wife patted the old leader and took out a small wooden stool for her to sit on: "Master's wife, this is simple, there is nothing good, please don't mind it."
"Master's Wife, I hope you don't think I disturbed your sleep." Zhang Yunxi took the bench, put it aside, helped her sit down, and took another look at the overall situation of the cowshed. It was not as bad as she imagined. The cowshed looked quite simple from the outside, but she didn't know what was done inside. It felt quite warm. As she looked at it, she met the old leader's sharp eyes again. Zhang Yunxi smiled and greeted him: "Hello, Master."
The old chief was stunned.
Zhao Rencheng never called him "Master" and always insisted on calling him "Old Leader", thinking that he should not step down from that position.
For him, Zhao Rencheng had done so much for him, let alone master and apprentice, he felt that Zhao Rencheng was his son! But after all, the relationship between the two of them was acknowledged by everyone, and the father-son relationship was never mentioned. It was right for the little girl to call him Master.
"Well, sit down."
"good."
Zhang Yunxi sat down obediently.
Zhao Rencheng talked to the old leader about the current situation and his future plans as factory director.
The old leader saw that he was in high spirits and had some of the charm he had in the army, and nodded with satisfaction. The brat said before that he should relax, but in fact he was also gloomy and did not look like a young man in his twenties at all. Now he finally looked a little lively.
The master's wife chatted with Zhang Yunxi, asking about her family situation, her opinion of Zhao Rencheng's family, how much dowry she needed, etc.
"I don't have parents anymore, but I have a little niece who needs to live with us. Her parents didn't bother me, and her second aunt gave her the betrothal gift."
"You are pitiful too."
When the master's wife heard her say that she would be taking care of a niece in the future, she felt relieved. There was no other way. The girl was too beautiful, could make money by writing, was a teacher, had a good personality, and was really outstanding.
Zhang Yunxi chatted with her master's wife about her living conditions and secretly wrote down her needs. Although Zhao Rencheng was very kind and would take care of the health of the two elders, including their diet, he still didn't understand women's needs very well. It was also during this chat that Zhang Yunxi learned that her master's wife was the daughter of a big capitalist and her parents had gone abroad.
"Then Master, you..."
"I have to follow my old man. Otherwise, how can he carry on if he is alone and doesn't care about his health?"
The master's wife sighed.
Since her parents went abroad, she severed ties with her family early on.
Originally, it didn't affect her family, but her husband was plotted against and her biological son was a fool, so they were alienated from each other, which led to the couple's fate.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. When are you and Xiao Cheng planning to have your wedding?"
Zhang Yunxi nudged Zhao Rencheng's arm slightly: "When do you think it will be?"
"This year!"
Zhao Rencheng answered with decisiveness.
He has proposed, how could there be no wedding yet! He can't wait to marry Zhang Yunxi home right now! The master's wife covered her mouth and laughed.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Young people are just annoying.
The corners of the old leader's mouth also slightly raised.
The two couples looked at each other and thought this was a good match! The four of them chatted for two or three hours and didn't leave until the early morning when it was time to go to the train station.
The old leader and his wife were both at the door seeing them off. His wife looked at their backs and secretly wiped away her tears.
Xiaocheng is finally starting a family.
The little girl doesn't look down on the couple.
The big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.
"Why are you crying? It's a good thing." The old leader scolded her.
"I'm happy!"
The master's wife glared at her and said to him, "We can't attend the wedding in the small town."
"I know. It doesn't matter. As long as he lives a good life, that's all."
The old leader was also particularly happy today.
The little brat is going to start a family.
He was really scared because that couple had ruined his life. Fortunately, there was a girl willing to follow him.
Otherwise, he would rather die than become a burden.
"It's cold outside, let's go in."
"good."
The couple went back to their room and lay down to continue sleeping, but they couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard they tossed and turned. They were happy.
While walking on the road, Zhao Rencheng talked to Zhang Yunxi about the origin of the three golds.
"I see you pay close attention to the Liao family. When I went to the provincial capital some time ago, I paid attention to their family and found that the son-in-law had a lot of casual affairs. I reported it a little. When I went to the provincial capital again, I looked at him again. He ran away with the things and was almost caught up by the red armbands. He just threw them here and I picked them up."
