Chu Tian thought about it and smiled, then reached out and grabbed the handlebars of Zuo Zhuang's bicycle.
"Thank you..."
Zuo Zhuang waved his hand, "Hey, that's nothing. Master has taken great care of me over the past twenty days. I can't thank you enough."
"See you in three days..."
Having said that, Zuo Zhuang waved his hand and walked in the opposite direction.
When Chu Tian rode his bicycle to the brigade, the people in the brigade had already finished work and were all at home waiting for dinner or preparing to rest after dinner, so he didn't see anyone along the way until he got home.
"Grandma, my grandson is back..."
When Chu Tian pushed his bicycle back home, Old Mrs. Chu and others were sitting in the main room, preparing to eat. Suddenly they heard Chu Tian's voice and were all startled.
"Brother Tian, you're back!"
"Daddy..."
Yao Xiujuan and Xinxin were sitting closest to the door, so they were the first to run out, followed by Chu Jie and others, and finally Old Lady Chu and Aunt Wu, who were sitting in the innermost part, and a woman holding a little girl over one year old.
Chu Tian picked up Xinxin who was hugging his thighs. He was stunned for a moment as he saw a large group of people running out. "Ah, yes, what's going on with you guys?"
At this time, Mrs. Chu walked over to Chu Tian, looked him up and down, and seeing that he had not lost weight, she smiled and said, "My dear grandson, you came back at the right time. I am looking for a wife for your eldest brother today."
Chu Tian was confused, "What?"
Old Madam Chu scolded, "My dear grandson, what's your reaction? Your eldest brother is still young, isn't it normal for him to remarry?"
"Ah, yes, it's normal."
Chu Tian nodded hesitantly, glanced sideways at Chu Jun, whose dark face had a suspicious red tint, and then looked at the young woman standing behind the crowd.
Aunt Wu then said, "Oh, what a double blessing! Today Chu Jun came to see me, and Chu Tian, who had been away for over 20 days, also came back..."
"Auntie, I'll go back first. You two can chat?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chu quickly turned around and grabbed Aunt Wu, "Hey, lunch is ready. Don't leave. Let's eat together at home."
At this time, Daya came to Chu Tian with a teacup of water and whispered, "Fourth Uncle, are you thirsty? Have some water?"
Chu Tian nodded, put down Xinxin from his arms, took the teacup from Daya, drank it all in one gulp, then glanced at Old Lady Chu who was talking to Aunt Wu, leaned close to Daya and whispered, "Daya, your father is going to get married, you..."
Daya pursed her lips and smiled, then leaned close to Chu Tian's ear and said, "Fourth Uncle, I actually hope my father can marry another woman. I have woken up several times at night and heard my father sighing in the room..."
Chu Tian heard this, touched Daya's head, and said with a smile, "Fourth Uncle came back and bought a lot of red dates. After dinner, Fourth Uncle will bring them to you."
Daya said embarrassedly, "Uncle Si, no need, my dad said he would buy it for me..."
Chu Min came over and said, "Your fourth uncle gave it to you, just keep it..."
Daya pursed her lips and smiled, "Second Uncle, I understand."
"My dear grandson, come in and have dinner."
Chu Tian raised his head and looked towards the main hall, "Hey, I see."
As they were talking, Chu Min and Chu Jie were about to pull Chu Tian into the house. Before Chu Tian was dragged away, he did not forget to look at Yao Xiujuan who had been smiling at him and said, "Xiujuan, I bought a lot of things, they are all in the back seat of the car..."
Yao Xiujuan nodded and said, "Brother Tian, please go in quickly. I'll clean up."
Daya quickly responded, "Aunt Si, I'll help you."
Yao Xiujuan smiled and said, "Okay."
After lunch, everyone dispersed, and Old Mrs. Chu approached Chu Tiandao.
"My dear grandson, the young wife sitting next to Big Brother at lunch was the former wife of the youngest son of the captain of the first team of our seventh company. They later divorced because of that educated youth..."
Chu Tian was shocked. "What? Grandma, is this appropriate?"
Old Madam Chu disagreed and said, "Why is it inappropriate? She's divorced anyway, and she lives in the same team now. Although no one dares to say anything in front of her, life is not easy after all. What's wrong with wanting to find a reliable man to marry and live with? "
Chu Tian swallowed and said, "But, would Captain Liang of Team One be willing?"
Mrs. Chu smiled and said, "It wasn't her who cheated on her husband in the first place. It was the Liang family who wronged her. Could they possibly be unwilling for her to remarry?"
"Besides, if she remarries into our third team, it might not be a bad thing for them!"
“····”
Chu Tian rubbed his temples weakly, sighed, and then asked, "But, but, will my eldest brother be willing?"
"I was reluctant at first."
He paused and then said in a smug tone, "I was reluctant at first, but after meeting that young wife today, I don't think I'm reluctant anymore."
"After all, that young wife is much better than Ma Cuihua..."
Chu Tian, "..."
Mrs. Chu smiled and patted Chu Tian's hand. "Alright, dear grandson, don't mention your elder brother's affairs. He's already grown up. Just give him some help. As for his future success, it depends on your elder brother himself."
"You've been out for more than 20 days. It must have been hard, right?"
Chu Tian shook his head, "It's okay, not very tired."
Old Mrs. Chu disagreed, "How can I not be tired?"
Chu Tian smiled and said, "It's really not bad. It's much easier than spring plowing."
Old Mrs. Chu nodded. She looked at Yao Xiujuan bringing the bags that had been placed in the kitchen back to the main room, and she became puzzled.
"My dear grandson, why did you bring back so many things?"
Chu Tian stood up and walked over to Yao Xiujuan. He placed the bag she was holding on the dining table and explained as he took something out of it. "We went to Hotan in southern Xinjiang this time. That place is rich in walnuts, red dates, and the dried apricots that are unique to southern Xinjiang. The prices are much cheaper than our supply and marketing cooperative, and they are also bigger and better. I would be sorry for my trip if I didn't buy some..."
"Hey, what kind of chicken is this? Why is it so black?"
Old Mrs. Chu was shocked when she saw Chu Tian taking out several small-looking but black chickens from a sack.
Yao Xiujuan thought for a moment and asked curiously, "Brother Tian, is this a black chicken?"
Chu Tian smiled and shook his head. He took out a large porcelain basin from the corner of the room and placed the chicken in it. "No, the feathers of black chickens are white. This is a Niya black chicken, a chicken from Hotan. Because they have little meat, no one raises them here."
"This chicken tastes great, Xiujuan. Send one each to my mother, my eldest uncle, and my second uncle. Also, add a pound of red dates and walnuts..."
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Chu spoke up, "Forget about the red dates and walnuts. Each family can have one pound. But one chicken is too much for each family. Just chop half a chicken for each family and let them taste it."
Yao Xiujuan looked at Chu Tian at a loss. Seeing Chu Tian nodded at her, she responded, "Grandma, I'll go clean up now."
With that, Yao Xiujuan picked up the two chickens and left.
