The dinner was very sumptuous, including chicken stewed with mushrooms, cabbage and pork stewed with vermicelli, pan-fried blood sausage, pork belly stir-fried with sauerkraut, leek boxes, sticky bean buns specially made by Li Suhua, and several vegetarian dishes.

Even during the Chinese New Year, it is rare to see such a sumptuous table of dishes in the neighboring homes.

It's rich now, but in the next few days, their family will have to eat leftovers.

"In a few days, your father and your brother will also come back, and our family will be reunited again!"

At the dinner table, Li Suhua was as happy as a child, constantly adding vegetables to Zhou Rong's bowl, and the smile on her face never broke.

"Mom, I can just clip it myself!" Zhou Rong said several times, but Li Suhua said yes every time, and soon she clipped it again.

Wang Zhong also always put vegetables into Zheng Juan's bowl. Zheng Juan ate very gracefully and chewed her food carefully.

Zheng Juan was embarrassed, her face was a little red, and she winked at Wang Zhong several times, but Wang Zhong still went his own way and was happy with it.

Seeing the happy expressions between the two of them, Zhou Rong was sour, and Cai Xiaoguang was even more sour. He was still single, and he didn't know whether he thought he had a chance, was waiting for Zhou Rong to change his mind, or something else, but he just couldn't find a partner.

However, Wang Zhong looked at Xuan. With Zhou Rong's temperament, even ten oxen could not pull back the decision. Cai Xiaoguang was good, but compared with Feng Huacheng, who was as perfect as a god in Zhou Rong's heart, he was like a sparrow.

Yu Honghu.

Li Suhua could only see Zhou Rong now. She couldn't see the show of affection between her youngest son and her future daughter-in-law, but it didn't matter if she saw it. Li Suhua had long been used to it, and she couldn't wait for the two of them to be affectionate.

Seeing that the New Year was approaching, Wang Zhong had already prepared everything that needed to be prepared, and Li Suhua also informed her old sisters and neighbors one by one.

Wang Zhong does not have an employer now, so he can only apply for marriage in the street. The Zhou family is very popular in Guangzi Film and is an old worker family. Zhou Zhigang is in Chongqing to support the construction of the motherland's third front line. The eldest brother Zhou Bingyi is also in the Corps. Genzheng

Miao Hong, the streets will naturally not be stuck on this matter.

Although there is no big event now, it is still okay to have a little fun.

The Zhou family came from Shandong and had few relatives here. The only people they could invite were the neighbors with whom they had good relations.

Wang Zhong directly handed over full authority to Li Suhua to handle this matter.

But within two days, a letter came from the Corps, which made Li Suhua both happy and sad.

The happy thing is that the eldest son said in his heart that he will get married to He Dongmei this year, but the sad thing is that they plan to get married in the Corps and will not come back for the Spring Festival this year.

Full of joy, she thought that this year would be a year of great reunion, and that the whole family would be able to get together happily, but she didn't expect that the boss suddenly did something like this. Li Suhua was both happy and helpless.

This made the little old lady depressed at home for several days.

It wasn't until the day before Zhou Zhigang came back that he felt better.

On the 26th of the twelfth lunar month, Zhou Zhigang's train would arrive in the afternoon, so Li Suhua still pulled Zhou Rong out of bed early in the morning.

Wang Zhongtian went out for a morning jog before dawn, and Li Suhua didn't need to shout at all.

Breakfast is simple, steamed buns, eggs and noodle soup.

There are five fist-sized buns, a bowl of noodle soup and 4 boiled eggs.

The steamed buns were stuffed with cabbage. Wang Zhong ate three of them in one go. Li Suhua and Zhou Rong didn't eat much, so one was enough for each of them.

After dinner, Li Suhua started to rush the siblings out to pick up Zhou Zhigang at the train station.

"Mom! Dad's train is at two o'clock in the afternoon. If we go there now, won't we waste most of the day in vain!"

Zhou Rong has never experienced it, so naturally she cannot understand Li Suhua's behavior.

"What if your dad's train arrives early? He shouldn't worry if he doesn't see you! And there must be a lot of luggage. Your dad is old and can't carry it."

"Trains are always late, never early!" Although Zhou Rong has never taken the train a few times, she knows everything she needs to know.

"What if?" Li Suhua's attitude was very firm: "Waiting at home is still waiting, and waiting at the station is still waiting. You go early, or at worst, just wait a little longer at the station. It is better than asking your dad to wait for you."

Zhou Rong couldn't defeat the old lady.

"Zhou Rong, this is your fault!" Wang Zhong scolded him with a straight face.

"Why is it my fault again?" Zhou Rong looked unhappy.

Wang Zhongdao: "Among us siblings, you are the one that dad and mom love the most! Ever since we were little, we always stick to you first if there is anything delicious or fun to do. Now I ask you to go to the station a little early and wait to see what happened to dad!"

You’re not happy anymore!”

"Kun'er is right!" Li Suhua immediately supported her.

The voting result was 2:1. Zhou Rong was alone and had no choice but to follow tradition and choose the minority to obey the majority.

Unable to defeat this little old lady, Wang Zhong let her go. Moreover, Wang Zhong was happy to tease Zhou Rong.

"Mom, I'll take Juan'er over later. With her helping you, you can save a lot of trouble."

Now there is no shortage of meat at home. As soon as Zhou Zhi comes back, Li Suhua will definitely prepare another delicious meal.

Li Suhua was delighted: "It just so happens that your father hasn't met Juan'er yet. It would be great if he, as the future father-in-law, takes this opportunity to see his daughter-in-law first."

"I'll go right away!" Wang Zhong said, throwing away the bowl and chopsticks, standing up and going to get his coat and hat.

"What are you doing in such a hurry? Let's go back after dinner!"

"I'm full! Eat slowly!"

Taiping Hutong, Zhengjia.

It was still early, Zheng's mother hadn't left the stall yet, and the family of three was having breakfast in the house.

Boom, boom, boom.

"Who is it? So early in the morning?"

"It must be brother-in-law!" Guangming said with a smile while holding the steamed buns.

Zheng Juan got up and got off the kang, went over to open the door, and it turned out to be Wang Zhong.

"Why are you here? Didn't you say you were going to pick up your dad at the station today?"

Wang Zhongdao: "My dad's train is in the afternoon, don't be in a hurry, we'll go later."

After saying that, she followed Zheng Juan into the house. Zheng's mother and Guangming were sitting on the kang. There was a large pot of hawthorn and a large handful of bamboo sticks on the kang table.

"Bingkun is here!"

"Brother Bingkun!"

"Auntie! Light!"

After saying hello, he took a sip of the hot water poured by Zheng Juan and sat on the stool. Wang Zhong said: "Auntie, isn't my dad coming back today? My mom is preparing a hearty dinner. I'm thinking of letting Juan'er go in the afternoon.

Go to my house and help my mother. When my father comes back in the evening, I can just let him meet Juan'er."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The second step is to help Zhou Zhigang, the main thing is to let Zhou Zhigang meet Zheng Juan, his daughter-in-law.

"This is what it should be!" Zheng's mother has always been reasonable, so naturally she would not object: "Juan'er, you can follow Bingkun back later."

"Auntie, don't worry, my dad will arrive in the afternoon! Let Juan'er go over in the afternoon. She can help you skewer some candied haws in the morning."

"Okay, I'll go there in the afternoon." Zheng Juan never refuted Wang Zhong's words: "Have you had breakfast? Do you want some more?"

"I have already eaten!"

"My mother is still urging me, so I won't stay any longer and will go back first."

······

Amid the surging crowd, the two of them stood on the platform near the exit. Wang Zhong had the foresight to take a sign with the words 'Welcome Comrade Zhou Zhigang home' on it, especially the three characters Zhou Zhigang.

Write the biggest.

Sure enough, Zhou Zhigang came to the door himself without having to look around.

"Xiao Rong!" Sure enough, after three years of not seeing each other, Comrade Zhou's anger with his daughter had long gone. When they met, he didn't care at all. He hugged Zhou Rong first, and the father and daughter almost burst into tears on the spot, exchanging words.

Heartfelt confession.

"Okay, okay! There are so many people watching! If you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we get back!"

"Dad, it must be very hard after sitting on the train for so long. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we get home." Zhou Rong said excitedly while wiping her tears, almost becoming incoherent.

There were two bicycles, Zhou Zhigang was riding Zhou Rong, and Wang Zhong could only carry his luggage.

Looking at the recently renovated courtyard gate, the repaired doors and windows that haven't had time to be painted, the tidy courtyard, and a rebuilt shed outside the east room of the courtyard, it's about two meters wide and looks decent. Under the shed

There was a bicycle, and neatly piled firewood and briquettes.
