Part II Part III Feeling Home
After returning to Qingshan Town and living in Longqing Garden, Chen Weizheng and Liu Yi finally felt like they had returned home.
At three o 'clock in the afternoon, Comrade Ye Fengchun finally succeeded in making himself unconscious. The Third Sister-in-law let Chen Weizheng send him back home. Liu Yi looked at Ye Fengchun and knew that he was completely drunk. He was 40% drunk and 60% asleep. He'll be fine once he wakes up!
Seeing Chen Weizheng and Liu Yi enter the house, the happiest person was Liu Yu. He walked around Chen Weizheng and was disappointed to find that his brother-in-law didn't buy him any gifts.
The twelve year old Liu Yu had grown a lot taller, reaching a height of 1.6 meters. In front of Liu Yi, he was too embarrassed to act coquettishly and could only go to his brother-in-law to find what he wanted.
"Xiao Yu, what gift do you want?" Chen Weizheng deliberately teased him.
"I don't want any gifts. I want to take the middle school exam and study." Liu Yu said seriously.
"Then the things I prepared are unnecessary!" Chen Weizheng said.
Liu Yu's eyes lit up. Chen Weizheng magically produced four Spirit Pills the size of Longan cores from between his fingers. Liu Yu knew about these things. For the past year or so, he had been drinking water soaked in these Spirit Pills. He knew the effects of these Spirit Pills. In 2015, he also found that his progress was a bit slow. The Spirit Pill Water was no longer enough to satisfy him. Seeing these four Spirit Pills, he knew that he would make great progress.
Liu Yi's mouth was wide open. She also knew how precious these Spirit Pills were. It must have been very difficult to obtain them. A sesame seed sized Spirit Pill was enough to wash away a person's entire body. Not to mention these Spirit Pills the size of Longan cores. She really didn't dare to imagine what kind of changes Liu Yu would have.
"Brother-in-law, is this big guy also soaked in water to drink?" Liu Yu asked.
"No." Chen Weizheng said, "I prepared a bracelet for you, a male bracelet. Inlay the four Spirit Dans into the bracelet, and the Spirit Dans' Spirit Dans will slowly enter your meridians and bring benefits to your body. "
"Do I still need to drink that kind of water?" Liu Yu asked.
Chen Weizheng nodded. He said, "Xiao Yu, is there a break in your Cut Leg Style?"
Liu Yu said a little embarrassedly, "Occasionally. In the beginning, I practiced with Zheng Tien-tien in the morning. Later on, Wang Ning often couldn't get up. Due to Wang Ning's influence, he stopped practicing on and off. After Ruan Cheng moved away, he stopped practicing, "Liu Yu said.
"You and Zheng Tien-tien have to keep practicing. Don't lose to Hua Zheng when the time comes. Isn't this uncle of yours a bit ugly?" Chen Weizheng said.
"It's not ugly. In our group, only Xiao Song can deal with Hua Zheng. The others aren't good enough. Moreover, Xiao Song completely has the advantage with his height. In a few years, when Hua Zheng grows up, Xiao Song won't be his opponent. Brother-in-law, I think you're the only one who can spar with him. "Liu Yu said.
"Oh!" Chen Weizheng was a little surprised and said, "This brat, he's improved so quickly!"
"Brother-in-law, help me buy a set of the Four Treasures of the Study." Liu Yu said, "I'll be in Chen Village during the New Year. I'll be learning calligraphy and painting from Hua Zheng. I can't paint, but I can write. Grandpa Chen said that it's not too late for me to practice now. It'll be too late in two years."
"I bought a bunch of the Four Treasures of the Study from Liu Li Chang and Pan Garden. They're all for Hua Zheng. If you want some, I'll give some to you. If they're useful, I'll ask my sister to help you buy them online. "Chen Weizheng took out a pile of brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones. Liu Yu happily took the pile of things and went to the study to practice calligraphy.
Chen Weizheng took out a set of Mr. Chen Xishan's "Sun Tzu's Art of War" calligraphy and gave it to Liu Yu to make a sticker for him to copy. Liu Yu happily took the "Sun Tzu's Art of War" calligraphy. He opened it and read aloud, "War is an important matter for a country. It's a place of life and death. It's the way of life and death. Therefore, there are five things to be learned. Study them and seek their feelings. The first is Dao, the second is Heaven, the third is Earth, the fourth is General, and the fifth is Law. The Dao is to make the people agree with it. It can lead to death or to life, but it's not dangerous. The Heaven is Yin and Yang, cold and hot, and the time system. The Earth is far and near, dangerous, wide and narrow, and life and death. The General is wisdom, faith, benevolence, courage, and strictness. The Law is the system, the official way, and the main use. Of these five things, there's no one who hasn't heard of them. Those who know them win, those who don't know them lose. Therefore, study them and seek their feelings. I say: Which one has the Dao? Which one has the power? Which one has the Heaven and Earth? Which one has the power? Which one is the strongest among the soldiers? Which one is the soldier? Which one is the reward and punishment? From this, I know victory and defeat. If the General listens to my plan, he'll win if he uses it. If the General doesn't listen to my plan, he'll lose if he uses it.
Chen Weizheng looked at Liu Yu in surprise and asked, "You know all these words?"
"Yes."
"Can you understand some of the meaning?" Chen Weizheng asked.
"A little. I've read 'Sun Tzu's Art of War'. Grandpa Chen taught me. It means: Starting a war is an important matter for a country. It concerns the life and death of the people and the survival of the country. We must be cautious, "Liu Yu said.
"Okay, it's better to read it. Understanding the meaning is more helpful for writing." After Chen Weizheng finished speaking, he muttered to himself as he walked to his room. He muttered, "Starting a war is an important matter for a country. It concerns the life and death of the people and the survival of the country. We must be cautious. It makes sense, but it also doesn't. So many wars are driven by interests. There's no justice or injustice. Ancient scholars still knew about the life and death of the people and the survival of the country. Now, whether it's the Gulf Coast or North Africa, they have never considered the life and death of the people and the survival of the country. Those who obey me prosper, and those who oppose me perish. The West is full of the logic of the strong. We use benevolence and kindness to deal with them. Before we even meet, we have already lost! "
For the first time in a few days, Chen Weizheng felt sleepy. He fell on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Liu Yi knew that Chen Weizheng had finally released the tension that had accumulated for a few days. He looked at him with heartache, tucked him in, and went out to chat with his grandmother.
When he woke up, it was already nine o 'clock in the evening. Chen Weizheng walked out of his room with his cloth shoes. He found Ou Jie and Zheng Jianyi sitting on the sofa and chatting. Ruan Lei, with her big belly, was looking at Liu Yi's harvest in the capital with Chen Liping and Liu Yi.
"You came at the right time. Drink with me." Chen Weizheng said, "I ate at Aunt's house at noon. I didn't have enough, but Third Brother fell over."
"Who can afford to drink with you!" Ou Jie said, "The Red River's number one drunkard."
"It's not just the Red River. I don't think you can find many people who can drink like him in China." Zheng Jianyi said.
"Okay, okay, okay. I won't compete with you in drinking. It's just that it's New Year. It's not right not to drink." Chen Weizheng said.
"That's because you're not here!" Ou Jie said, "We drank a lot here."
"Haha!" Chen Weizheng knew that in the ten days that he and Liu Yi were not in Qingshan Town, they relied on Ou Jie, Zheng Jianyi, and Wang Hongtao's family to accompany him and take care of the old and the young. He was very grateful.
Zheng Tien-tien was ten years old. He was very hands-on, and he especially liked to play games that required a lot of creativity. Chen Weizheng found a bicycle that could be assembled into a folding box in the capital. When it was opened, it was a 20-inch square box. Once it was opened, it could be assembled into a bicycle in just a few minutes. It was the kind that could change speeds. He specially bought one for Zheng Tien-tien. Sure enough, as soon as Zheng Tien-tien saw it, he started thinking about it.
He handed Ou Jie's suitcase to Ou Jie and told him that he was the director of the High Energy Technology Development Base in Qingshan Town's Military Experimental Zone, Lieutenant Colonel. There were relevant documents and information in the suitcase, as well as uniforms and a full set of badges.
Qu Jie opened the briefcase and chuckled, "Ridiculous, I got promoted again! I'm the director, what are you doing? "
"Mine is even more ridiculous!" Chen Weizheng said, "My office is in the capital. Although I'm in the same general technology department as you, we're not in the same department. I'm in the general equipment support department's High Energy Technology Research Laboratory. I'm the deputy director, colonel, and a general without an army."
"Old Zheng's letter of appointment has arrived, right?" Chen Weizheng asked.
"Mine arrived a long time ago. I'm in charge of the artillery development base. I'm also a general without an army," Zheng Jianyi said, "Weizheng, I think your position is not suitable. It should be adjusted."
"Third Brother also said so," Chen Weizheng said, "Who cares. I'm a brick in the revolution. I'll move wherever I'm needed. I wonder how much more a colonel's monthly salary is compared to a lieutenant colonel's? "
"Why do you care how much more it is? You're still lacking that bit of money," Ou Jie said.
"That's different. That's the money I gave to my family's Liu Yi. With more money, life will be easier. My family's Liu Yi is a civil servant, so his salary is low. He's not like your family's Ruan Lei, who is a civil servant. Her salary is high, her treatment is good, and she gets to enjoy the sunlight." Chen Weizheng actually looked like an unsatisfied old cadre. This image made everyone laugh.
Liu Yi heated up a few side dishes and made a small home-style hot pot. This small hot pot was made at a high standard. He took out a few sour chilies from the jar and crushed them in the pot. Once he put in water, the bottom of the pot would be cooked. It was sour, spicy, and had a red chili color. Whatever he wanted to eat in the pot, it was refreshing and appetizing.
Chen Weizheng told Chen Liping that Zhao Hengguang wanted to change the two Longshan Cavalier military versions into police cars. Liu Dehou wanted the color and eight big words that he told Chen Liping. Chen Liping said that it wasn't a big problem. There were a few storage cars. She just had to ask Wei Kang to spray paint them tomorrow. They could make it on the fifteenth day of the first month.
Chen Liping said that on the second day of the first month, a group of people went to Chen Weizheng's house for dinner. Her aunt was so busy that she didn't let anyone help her. She insisted on making a table of dishes for everyone to taste. The result was a tragedy. The lemon duck was too sour, the white cut chicken was too salty, the stewed pig's trotters were too hard, the braised pig's stomach was too overcooked, and the steamed whole fish was the most wasteful.
Fortunately, Grandma Chen and Grandma Liu were experienced. They changed the white cut chicken into braised chicken, the lemon duck into beer duck, and the pig's trotters and stomach were pressed in a pressure cooker. The most talented dish was the steamed whole fish. They cut the meat out of the fish body and kept the fish head and tail for shape. Then, they mixed the minced meat with the eggs, added a little green onion and two coriander, and steamed the eggs. When the eggs were cooked, they were served. It was very delicious. Xiao Yu and Tian Tian ate the minced eggs and fish until there was nothing left. The head and tail of the fish were taken advantage of by your white cat.
Chen Weizheng asked about Wang Hongtao's family. Ou Jie said that they were driving back to Yun Du on the third day of the first month. Wang Hongtao's hometown held a big New Year party yesterday and specially sent a letter to invite them. Wang Hongtao was now a famous person in his hometown. Even the County Party Secretary did not dare to look down on him. Today, the County had specially invited him and Sister Zhang to a banquet. They will only be back tomorrow.
When Wang Hongtao was in Maicheng, these people did not think of inviting him to a banquet. Now, as the General Manager of Longshan Electric Scooter Factory and the General Manager of Longshan Finance Company, he had a high status in front of his hometown people!
