The wedding was over!
The wedding did not bring Chen Weizheng too many memories. After all, it was someone else's wedding. It was someone else's joyous event. It was someone else's announcement to the world that from that day onwards, he could make a baby.
The only bright spot was Ruan Lei. She brought a lot of curiosity to Chen Weizheng and made him want to get closer to her.
There were still ten days before the New Year. Chen Weizheng found that Old Master Chen and Grandma Chen started to get busy.
There was a tofu maker in the village. He was the grandson of the second master, Chen Weijun. With this skill, he raised the whole family. Grandma Chen went to the store to order a pot of tofu and told them to send it over on the 27th of the New Year. Chen Weijun took notes carefully.
Grandma Chen was more familiar with Chen Weizheng than Chen Weizheng was with the pig butcher. Chen Weizheng made a list of the parts of the pig and asked them to send it over on the 26th of the New Year. Chen Weizheng happily agreed.
The fish at home were still too small to be eaten. He went to the market early to buy a few big fish and raised them in the fish pond. He could eat them whenever he wanted.
Chen Weizheng took out a lot of oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, flour, dried abalone, western sauces. He also put some deep-sea ice and more than ten kilograms of deep-sea prawns in the freezer. There was also a piece of codfish, which was probably the treasure of the supermarket. He told Grandma that it was from a friend in Nancheng.
Liu Dehou was on duty until the afternoon of the New Year's Eve. Chen Xiaomei had to wait for him to take the holiday together. Old Liu and his wife were eager to come to Chen Village. Old Master Chen's description on the phone had already made them hungry. They did not come to Chen Village because they wanted to wait for Xiao Zhu. On the 25th of the New Year, Xiao Zhu's tutoring ended. Old Liu and his wife went to Liu Dehou's house early in the morning to prepare to go to the countryside. Every day, Liu Dehou would visit a few companies in a day. He was so busy that he could not even finish a meal. Huang Chenglong had to follow him around. He could not even find the time to send the old and young to work. He had no choice but to let Chen Weizheng pick him up.
Chen Weizheng also wanted to go to the city to buy some things for the New Year, so he set off early in the morning.
When they arrived at the courtyard of the dormitory of the Municipal Party Committee, two old people and a young boy rushed out as soon as the car stopped. Chen Xiaomei, who was following behind them, smiled bitterly. He greeted Chen Weizheng and then introduced the two old people to him. They asked Chen Weizheng to call them 'Grandpa Liu' and 'Grandma Liu'. The two elders were very satisfied.
Dr. Liu sat in the front row, and the two ladies sat in the back row. Their luggage was all piled up in the back row. He opened the trunk and began to fill it with items.
Sugar, tobacco, and wine had already filled up more than half of the space in the trunk. Dry goods filled up the remaining space. When he saw Chen Xiaomei take out a big bag of fireworks and firecrackers, Chen Weizheng began to miss the Explorer III in Nancheng. It's New Year, I wonder how Ou Jie is doing!
When the two ladies' feet, sides, and backs were all piled up with items, Chen Weizheng finally finished his crazy move and drove away from the courtyard. The guards at the courtyard thought to themselves, 'Car No. 26 has made a comeback. Whose family will it be this time?'
They did not make any stops in the city. Firstly, the two old people were eager to go to the countryside. Secondly, the car was too full to put anything in. In less than an hour, the car drove into Chen Village. Along the way, Old Master Liu was like a curious child, asking all sorts of questions. Xiao Zhu, who was sitting in the back row, secretly smiled. She was surprised that her grandfather was so naive.
When the car stopped in the courtyard, Old Master Liu's surprise and curiosity reached its peak. He asked a few questions in a row. Before Chen Weizheng could answer, Old Master Chen came out to greet them.
After getting herself out from the pile of items, Xiao Zhu greeted her grandparents and asked where Xiao Song was. Grandma said, 'He's in your brother's study room.' Xiao Zhu said, 'He only knows how to play games and doesn't know how to move things.'
Chen Weizheng said, 'He doesn't need to move these things. Don't disturb him and interrupt his train of thought.' Xiao Zhu looked at her brother in surprise. She could not connect her brother's description with the Xiao Song in her heart.
"Grandpa, accompany Grandpa Liu to sit inside. I'll take care of these things." Chen Weizheng said to Old Master Chen.
Before Old Master Chen could say anything, Old Master Liu asked excitedly, "What did you call Old Master Chen?"
"Grandpa." Chen Weizheng was very sure.
"How can you call him grandpa! That's not right! Old Master Chen, what right do you have to be his grandpa? You're a professional grandpa. Who approved you to be a grandpa? If you're a grandpa, then what am I doing? "Old Master Liu's words made everyone laugh.
"First come, first served. I came first, so I'm a grandpa. You came later, so you're Grandpa Liu." Old Master Chen's tone was filled with pride. He probably wouldn't exchange it for the Jade Emperor.
"Why did you come first? Where did I go? Old woman, where did I go? "Elder Liu asked Grandma Liu in exasperation.
"New Year's Day, the unit organized an island trip. You went on a trip! I told you not to go, but you insisted. Now you're regretting it. "Grandma Liu was quiet and didn't like traveling. Old Master Liu was different. He wished he could stay outside every day.
"Unit organization! This unit is too ridiculous! They don't know how to choose the time! Nonsense! They made my eldest grandson Old Master Chen's! No, I'm not done with them. After the New Year, I won't go to the clinic anymore. I'll stay at home every day. Let's see who can fight with me. "Old Master Liu was sometimes unreasonable.
"Old Liu, you can't blame our family's Old Master Chen for this." Grandma Chen said.
"How can I not blame him? I blame him. He just came a few days earlier!" Old Master Liu turned around and said to Chen Weizheng, "Good child, let's change. Don't call him grandpa. Let me call him Grandpa Chen. Grandpa will give you a change fee."
Everyone laughed until they fell down. Even Little Zhu shouted from the side, "Grandpa is super talented. Grandpa, use your ultimate move."
It seemed like this pair of old relatives often fought like this. Chen Weizheng stood at the side with a smile and didn't interrupt. He couldn't see this kind of fun.
"That's fine too." Old Master Chen agreed. Suddenly, the scene became very quiet. Everyone looked at Old Master Chen in surprise.
"Just one condition. Old Master Liu, you have to change your surname. Little Zheng's surname is Chen. You can't just call anyone with the surname Liu grandpa." This suggestion was quite shocking. Looking at Old Master Liu, whose eyes were as wide as copper bells and whose mouth was agape, everyone wanted to know how Old Master Liu would deal with it.
"No, he has to change his surname. Who has ever seen a grandpa change his surname to become a grandson! "Sure enough, Old Master Liu was a little crazy.
"That's impossible. Little Zheng's family has only one heir for three generations. The Chen family still needs him to pass on the legacy!" Old Master Chen was confident that he had won this battle again.
"I'll change it. Anyway, I have a son and a grandson. The Liu family has a successor. What's so great about me changing my surname?" Old Master Liu began to cut off all means of retreat. Everyone was so shocked that black lines appeared on their faces. It seemed like in order to get the right to call his grandson, he was going all out.
"Grandpa, grandma, you're here." A voice came from the door. It was Xiao Song.
"Weren't you reading?" Little Zhu asked.
"Grandpa flipped out and woke me up." Xiao Song said, "Grandpa, you said you want to change your surname?"
"Yes!" Old Master Liu said decisively.
"I don't agree." Liu Songzhao's opinion was also very clear.
"Why?" Old Master Liu was very surprised. He had never thought that his grandson would participate in his opinion, and even oppose it. For a moment, he couldn't find a reason to say anything to his grandson.
"If you become my cousin's grandpa, then where do I go to find my grandpa?" Liu Songzhao's question was very serious.
Everyone laughed loudly. Little Zhu gave Xiao Song a thumbs up. She had never thought that Xiao Song would have this kind of wisdom.
Old Master Liu's face was red, and he couldn't say anything.
"In order to compensate you, I've decided to give you a quarter of the vegetable field in front of you to grow medicine." Old Master Chen began to point out his victory.
"Why give me a quarter? A quarter is enough for you to grow vegetables. You don't even need a quarter. I'll give you a square meter to grow a bean. I'll let you accompany your bean. Every day, I'll say something like, 'Growing beans under the fence in the east, leisurely looking at the south mountain'. I want to grow precious medicine that can save lives and heal the injured. Do you know? "Looking at the half a mu of vegetable field behind the iron fence, Old Master Liu's heart trembled. What he wanted the most in his life was a piece of land like this, where he could grow the medicine he liked. This was a secret that wasn't a secret. Everyone in the family knew about it. Old Master Chen started to tease his wife when he saw her. Sure enough, the firecracker exploded.
"No, I want three-quarters of the vegetables. A quarter of your precious medicine is enough." The one who spoke was Grandma Liu. She loved this vegetable field so much. When she heard Grandma Chen talking about this vegetable field on the phone, she had already planned how to grow it. This time, when she heard that Old Master Liu wanted to take over the vegetable field, she became anxious.
"Why can it only be a quarter?" Old Master Liu knew the weight of his wife's words. Usually, she would let him have his way, but when it came to matters of principle, he would listen to her.
"It's more precious if you plant less," Grandma Liu said.
Everyone was speechless.
After lunch, the four old people started to play mahjong. Chen Weizheng made an automatic mahjong machine for them. He moved the sofa in the living room forward to make enough space to make a chess room.
Chen Weizheng brought the two junior high school students to the riverbank.
There was a row of willow trees by the riverbank. In winter, all the leaves had fallen, leaving only bare branches swaying in the cold wind. There was very little water in the river. The surface of the river was bare, and large and small pebbles covered the riverbank. At the bend, there was a lot of water, forming a small pool. Many migratory birds rested here.
Xiao Zhu felt the pain in her face from the wind. She wrapped her coat around herself. She looked at her brother and Xiao Song. They were wearing very little. Outside of their thermal underwear, they were wearing a thin imitation of Li Ning. The shape of the sneakers on their feet was between that of Nike and Li Ning. She didn't know what brand it was.
Her brother moved first. He started from the riverbank and easily jumped onto the big stones on the riverbank. Then, he ran and jumped on the stones quickly. He accurately jumped from one stone to another. The natural stones were like a natural bridge. After a while, her brother ran back and asked Xiao Song to run. Xiao Song's speed was obviously not as fast as his brother, but he still followed his brother's running and jumping path without missing a step. When did Xiao Song become so agile? It seemed that Xiao Song had undergone a complete transformation while he was here with her brother.
After dinner, Xiao Zhu saw that Xiao Song didn't immediately turn on his computer to play games. Instead, he accompanied his grandfather for a walk in the courtyard. He asked his grandfather for some ancient words and phrases. Some of the content was far beyond the requirements of junior high school. Xiao Zhu understood what Xiao Song had been doing in Chen Village.
9 pm was usually the start of Xiao Song's nightlife. Here, Xiao Song's activity was to rest in bed. Xiao Zhu knew that if Xiao Song continued like this, her position as the top student in school would be in jeopardy. She felt the pressure.
When she woke up, it was already the next morning. Xiao Song called from outside the door, "Xiao Zhu, Xiao Zhu."
Xiao Zhu answered and crawled out of the warm blanket. When she opened the door, Xiao Song passed her a glass of water and said, "Drink this water in one gulp. Don't go to the toilet. Change into your sportswear and shoes and go downstairs. Hurry! "
Although Xiao Zhu didn't understand, she was used to being an obedient girl and still followed his instructions. When she went downstairs, she realized that her family was already up. She was the last one to wake up. The two old ladies were making breakfast. Xiao Song and her brother were training in the courtyard in their sportswear. The two old men were also training in their sportswear.
Xiao Zhu followed her brother's instructions and ran around the courtyard at a slower speed. She felt a little warm and she also made a set of sportswear. She felt like she needed to pee. Her brother said, "Pee, pee, pee." She could only hold it in. After a while, her brother said, "Go take a hot shower and come down for breakfast." Xiao Song had already rushed up. She also ran up.
The breakfast was not bad. It was probably made by Grandma Liu because Grandma Chen was only good at cooking Western food. When it came to cooking Chinese food, she was not as good as Grandpa Chen. Mustard vegetable and meat porridge. Each person had a tea egg and a fried bread. They had separate meals. Chinese food and Western food.
After breakfast, they rested for a while. Xiao Zhu saw Xiao Song going upstairs and followed him. She was surprised to find that Xiao Song did not turn on his computer. Instead, he opened a physics book and said, "Play by yourself. I don't have time to play with you. I only have two days in my plan. I must finish all of junior high physics."
