In the evening, at the dinner table at Lao Zhou's house, even though Li Suhua tried her best, Feng Yue was still not in a high mood for eating, so she just took a small bowl and said she was full.

Put down the bowl, take off your shoes, sit on the kang, lean on the window sill with your hands, look out the window at the gorgeous fireworks that occasionally explode in the sky, and the sound of firecrackers that come into the house from outside the window, your eyes are filled with longing.

and yearning.

Zhou Rong's face changed slightly, and she was about to have an attack, but was stopped by Feng Huacheng next to her.

Li Suhua, on the other hand, had no scruples. She frowned, a little worried, and asked with concern, "Yueyue, why do you only eat so much?"

Feng Yue's gaze was still outside the window, "I ate too many dumplings at noon and I have no appetite."

"Forget it if you have no appetite. Grandma will make a bowl of dumplings and steam them on the stove later. You can eat them when you are hungry." Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng stayed in Yanjing all year round. Li Suhua obviously cared more about Feng Yue.

"Yes!" Feng Yue responded softly, stood up and took off the schoolbag on the cabinet behind him, took out a book from it, sat on the edge of the bed, and read through the light of the incandescent lamp.

"Mom, don't spoil her too much!" Zhou Rong was a little unhappy about Li Suhua's doting on Feng Yue.

Li Suhua didn't say anything, just silently picked up a bowl of dumplings, took off the kettle from the stove, put on a small steamer, and put the bowl of dumplings in the steamer to heat up, so that Feng Yue could have them no matter when he was hungry at night.

Eat hot dumplings.

Zhou Rong wanted to say something more, but Feng Huacheng stopped her again. After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Rong did not continue.

Zhou Zhigang lowered his head, a little lost in thought, not knowing what he was thinking.

There is no TV in Lao Zhou's house, let alone a color TV, not even a black and white TV. It's not that Zhou Bingyi can't afford it, but it's just that no one is here at all. Li Suhua only comes over every two days to clean and furnish the house.

It's not well ventilated, and even if I bought a TV, no one would watch it, and the public security has not been very good in recent years. If you leave such a valuable thing like a TV at home, and no one is home all the time, you might as well have something happen to it.

After dinner, Li Suhua took Zhou Rong to chat. Feng Huacheng and Feng Yue looked at the "Bright Sword" in Feng Yue's hand and couldn't help but feel curious.

"Yueyue likes to read this type of book?"

Feng Yue did not nod or shake her head, but she could feel her father's attempt to get close to her.

"It's okay." Feng Yue replied indifferently. Although he could feel it, Feng Yue still had complaints about his parents in his heart.

Feng Huacheng smiled and said, "Your uncle is a very talented person. I have read basically all the books he wrote. His writing is simple and straightforward, without any fancy rhetoric, but he is still humorous. Xiao Yi

It's a small word to show great justice, and even our library has included it."

"Really?" Feng Yue turned to look at Feng Huacheng, with surprise and pride that could not be hidden on her face.

But even with this pride, Feng Huacheng felt uncomfortable.

But he still forced out a smile that was not so forced, "Of course it's true."

The smile on Feng Yue's face became even brighter, as bright as a flower blooming in the sun.

Feng Huacheng suddenly felt a surge of sourness in his heart, as if he had taken a big sip of vinegar, and at the same time he was actually a little jealous.

Jealous of Wang Zhong, jealous of the bright smile and pride on his daughter's face, which actually appeared when talking about Wang Zhong.

The father and daughter just started chatting about the unsung heroes of Changjin Lake, the fighting skills learned from the stage by Li Da in the "Eternal Number", the spirit of daring to show the sword to the enemy in "Drawing the Sword"...

Feng Yue, who was originally a bit taciturn, suddenly started talking more.

Feng Huacheng felt sad and happy at the same time.

As he spoke, Feng Yue suddenly waved to Feng Huacheng. Feng Huacheng leaned forward slightly. Feng Yue said in a low voice, "Actually, my favorite is the book "The Great Desolation" written by my uncle recently."

""Prehistoric"?" Feng Huacheng asked doubtfully. The name didn't sound like the War of Resistance, nor did it sound like traditional prose.

Feng Yue said with a smile, "My uncle hid it well and said he would show it to us after it was completely finalized, but I still secretly saw a little bit of Pangu opening up the world, one breath transforming into three pure beings, his body transforming into heaven and earth, his pupils reflecting the sun and moon, Hongjun

Cooperate with the way of heaven, three thousand guests from the purple sky, Nuwa repairs the blue sky, the war between the lich and the witch begins, the dragon and the phoenix..."

Listening to all the familiar yet unfamiliar things in his daughter's mouth, Feng Huacheng vaguely felt that a grand world picture was slowly unfolding. While he was curious, he was also extremely shocked.

From the information revealed in his daughter's words, Feng Huacheng could feel that Wang Zhong seemed to have connected all the mythical stories of the Chinese country together, forming an extremely magnificent mythical world.

However, Feng Yue only stood aside and peeked a little while Wang Zhong was writing. Wang Zhong was still keeping the truly detailed content secret.

But this was so shocking to Feng Huacheng.

The night was getting deeper and deeper. Feng Yue couldn't bear it anymore and dozed off. After sitting on the kang, he fell asleep on the table. There was nothing he could do. It was really boring in the light of writing. If this happened in

Over in the courtyard, Zheng Juanneng and Zhou Cong stayed up all night playing.

With the help of Li Suhua, Feng Huacheng carefully carried Feng Yue into the house.

Late at night, everything is quiet.

Feng Huacheng lay sideways on the bed, with his hands under his head. Looking at Feng Yue, who was sleeping soundly between the couple, his heart was enveloped by an inexplicable warmth. The corners of his mouth unconsciously raised slightly, showing a happy smile.

.

The same goes for Zhou Rong opposite.

Due to various reasons, the two tacitly chose not to have children. Now Feng Huacheng is over fifty, Zhou Rong is forty, and their only daughter Feng Yue is fifteen years old.

But the time the couple spends reunited with their daughter is pitiful.

At the same time, the big kang in the outhouse was so hot and warm that the cold couldn't get close at all.

The old couple was lying on the bed, thinking about the words they heard in the afternoon and the deserted home today. Zhou Zhigang felt mixed emotions in his heart and could not fall asleep for a long time.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Suhua did not have these messy thoughts and fell asleep after lying down for a while.

Early the next morning, before dawn, the kitchen lights came on. Li Suhua got up early to prepare breakfast and poured the water that had been boiled in the kettle all night into a thermos.

Zhou Zhigang couldn't sleep all night. After being awakened by the sound of Li Suhua getting up, he couldn't sleep anymore and simply got up.

After a while, there was movement from the back room.

Li Suhua originally thought it was Feng Huacheng or Zhou Rong, but unexpectedly it was Feng Yue.

The little girl stood on tiptoes, carefully opened the curtain and walked out. When she saw Li Suhua, she quickly said hello, "Good morning, grandma!"

"What are you doing up so early in this cold weather?"

"I'm not yet an uncle, but I wake up at this time every day, which makes me unable to sleep at this time."

"Everyone has a biological clock now." Feng Yue complained with a flat mouth.

"Biological clock?" Li Suhua asked curiously, "What is a biological clock?"

"It's just that when the time comes every day, I wake up by myself without anyone calling me."

Li Suhua smiled and said, "This is a good thing. You go wash your face first, and I will comb your hair when grandma is done."

"No need grandma, I can do it myself."

Zhou Zhigang, who heard the sound, also came out of the house.

"Grandpa!" Feng Yue greeted him obediently.

Brushing her teeth, practicing, combing her hair and braiding her hair, Feng Yue's skills were so skillful that she usually did it by herself.

After a while, Feng Huacheng and Zhou Rong also got up. Feng Yue had already combed two braids for herself and placed them on her front shoulders. Breakfast was served on the table, including pumpkin porridge with meat buns, dumplings and pickles made yesterday,

The key is Feng Yue’s favorite sticky bean buns.

It's quite rich.

Feng Yue ate two dumplings, two sticky bean buns, and drank a small bowl of porridge. Then she hurriedly wiped her mouth, put down the bowl and chopsticks, went into the house, picked up her backpack, and put on her coat, scarf, and woolen hat.

,Gloves.

Seeing her like this, Zhou Rong quickly called her out, "Why are you going so early in the morning?"

"Go to my uncle's house!"

Feng Yue said matter-of-factly, "My cousin and I have made an appointment to go skating together today. My skates are all at my uncle's house. I have to go and meet them first."

"Why didn't I listen to you yesterday?" Zhou Rong frowned.

"You didn't even ask!" Feng Yue said confidently.

Seeing that Zhou Rong's face looked a little unhappy, Feng Huacheng on the side said quickly, "Since we have made an appointment, let's go quickly. We can't break the appointment and let others go."

"Grandma! Grandpa! Dad! Mom! Then I'm leaving!" As he said that, he opened the curtain, opened the door, and jumped out, looking as cheerful as he wanted.

Li Suhua warned, "Be careful on the road. The road is slippery in the snow, so walk slowly."

"I know, grandma!" The voice became more and more distant.

"I haven't seen her so happy in the past few days." Seeing her daughter in high spirits and looking forward to going out, Zhou Rong murmured in a sour voice.

The contrast with yesterday was so strong that Zhou Rong even felt that the breakfast carefully prepared by Li Suhua was not that delicious.

"Okay!" Li Suhua looked at Zhou Rong's face, shook her head helplessly, and said, "You keep a straight face in front of your child all day long, it's strange that the child can be happy."

Feng Huacheng immediately acted like an ostrich. In his opinion, as long as his daughter can be happy, going out to play is fine.

Zhou Zhigang didn't say anything and just ate his meal quietly.

Without Feng Yue, the house suddenly felt empty.

At night, it was almost getting dark, but Feng Yue hadn't come back yet. Even Li Suhua was a little anxious.

Just as they were planning to go look for Wang Zhong's house, suddenly there was the sound of a car outside the courtyard.

A few people were wondering when they heard voices coming from outside.

"Okay, go back quickly, your parents and grandma must be waiting impatiently."

"Goodbye, uncle! Go back and drive slowly."

The sound of the car sounded again and gradually faded away. Feng Yue, carrying a backpack and holding a panda doll in her arms, jumped into the yard with a bright smile on her face.

Li Suhua just opened the door and walked out, but unfortunately Wang Zhong had already driven away, "Smelly girl, you still know how to come back! Don't even look at what time it is."

It's almost dark now.

Feng Yue quickly ran to Li Suhua, held Li Suhua's hand, and said coquettishly, "I'm sorry, grandma, I won't do it next time."

"Humph!" Li Suhua turned away.

Feng Yue quickly ran to the other side, shook Li Suhua's hand, and continued to act coquettishly, "Grandma! You know you're wrong!"

Li Suhua glared at Feng Yue, and then said, "Forget it this time, if you do it again next time, see how I deal with you. Okay, it's cold outside, go inside quickly."

Feng Yue knew that Li Suhua was a tough talker, so he was willing to deal with her without fear at all.

But Li Suhua couldn't help but keep her eyes running in the direction of the car, with mixed feelings in her heart.

They arrived at the door of their house, but they didn't even want to enter and just left.

But what can Li Suhua do? Wang Zhong and Zheng Juan are very considerate to her. Among the three children, Wang Zhong and Zheng Juan are the only ones who have been by her side for years. Thinking back to the time when Wang Zhong was admitted to Yanjing University, but still...

He did not forget to try his best to bring her to Yanjing, saying that he would help Zheng Juan take care of the child, but how could Li Suhua not feel Wang Zhong's thoughts?

Unknowingly, Li Suhua felt her eyes moistened. She lowered her head and raised her hand to wipe it with her sleeve. Feng Yue happened to see this action.

"Grandma, what's wrong with you?"

Li Suhua forced a smile, "It's nothing, the wind is too strong, it's a bit blinding."

"Then let's hurry into the house!" Feng Yue didn't think much and quickly held Li Suhua's hand and entered the house together.

As soon as he entered the door, Feng Yue quickly bowed and apologized to everyone in a very dignified manner, saying that he was playful and did not pay attention to the time, and promised that he would not do it next time.

Zhou Rong and Zhou Zhigang, who were still a little angry at first, saw that she was so well-behaved, and their anger subsided, and they said a few words in a neutral tone.

Asked about the panda doll in Feng Yue's arms, Feng Yuecai said that it was a New Year's gift specially commissioned by Wang Zhong from the toy factory. She and Lingling had one each, while Zhou Cong and the others had other toys.

After washing, Feng Yue hugged the panda doll wherever she went, even when she slept.

At night, Zhou Rong and his wife could not sleep for a long time. They saw in their daughter a happiness that had never appeared when she was with them.

"I've thought about it!" Feng Huacheng suddenly said, "Let's go back to Jichun!"

"You're right. If I stay in Yanjing now, I won't have much of a future. On the contrary, there are many opportunities for Jichun. And don't you feel that Yue Yue is becoming less and less close to us?"

Zhou Rong was silent for a long time before saying, "She is still young now. When she grows up, she will understand our difficulties."

Feng Huacheng shook his head helplessly. The issue about Yue Yue was one of the main conflicts between the couple.

At the beginning, Yueyue was too young. At that time, there was really no way to let Yueyue follow Wang Zhong and Zheng Juan. But when Wang Zhong graduated from university, Yueyue was already in elementary school. At that time, Wang Zhong asked Li Suhua to ask

Their opinion is whether to take Yueyue back or let Yueyue follow Zheng Juan and Li Suhua back to Jichun.

Feng Huacheng thought that his daughter was already in elementary school and he didn't need someone to take care of her every day, so he thought about taking Yueyue home, but Zhou Rong disagreed.

The reason is also very simple. Their house is small to begin with. In one room in the Tongzi Building, even the cooking is in the corridor. The toilet is also a public toilet. The house is only a dozen square meters in total. They can hear a quarrel next door. The two of them

The mouth is already very small. If there are multiple children, and it is still a girl, Zhou Rong thinks it is very inconvenient.

Zhou Rong decided that even a hundred cows, let alone ten cows, could not be pulled back. The couple had a big quarrel over this, but in the end Feng Huacheng could not defeat Zhou Rong and had to compromise.

"Huh!" Feng Huacheng took a deep breath, calmed down his ups and downs of emotions, tried his best to lower his voice, and said firmly, "Yueyue is in high school now, and the college entrance examination will be soon. We have missed Yueyue's childhood, missed her

She excelled in elementary school and cannot even miss her high school."

These words touched Zhou Rong's heart. Zhou Rong, who had always been soft-spoken, finally said, "Jichun University has always wanted to invite me to teach in their school. If you really think about it, we will come back immediately after the Chinese New Year."

Yanjing took care of this matter."

"Think about it!" Feng Huacheng said firmly, their eyes met, and they both saw determination in each other's eyes.

In the east room, on the Kang, Zhou Zhigang was tossing and turning and still couldn't fall asleep. Suddenly he asked in a deep voice, "Is it Bingkun who sent Yueyue back just now?"

"Well!" Li Suhua said, "Didn't you hear the sound?"

"······" Zhou Zhigang was speechless.

After a long while, he said again, "If he doesn't come in even when he reaches the door of his house, does he really intend to completely break up with this family?"

Li Suhua did not answer, turned over, and turned her back to Zhou Zhigang, "No more, I'm sleepy. If you don't want to sleep, I'll go to sleep first."

In the darkness, Zhou Zhigang stared at the beams above, but his mood was very complicated. He really didn't feel sleepy at all, but he was more angry, angry with Wang Zhong.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Feng Yue also got up early in the morning, ran around the optical film in the wind and snow, exercised for a while in the courtyard, washed up, had breakfast, sat down at the desk, and carried the

Book.

Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng were very happy to see their daughter working hard.

Early in the morning, Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei rushed back to Guangzi Film from the provincial party committee compound. They would stay at Guangzi Film in the next few days.

Around 10:30, the sound of a car was heard outside the house. Everyone was still confused when they saw Feng Yue running out happily from the back room.

When everyone saw this, they quickly followed out and saw Zheng Juan and four children getting out of the car. Wang Zhong stood at the trunk, took out gifts of all sizes from the trunk, then closed the trunk, and

Zheng Juan confessed, got into the driver's seat again, and drove away.

Not to mention entering the door, he didn't even say a word to anyone.

At the door, Zhou Zhigang's face turned pale and he turned around and entered the house.

Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong didn't look good either. Li Suhua sighed helplessly and hurriedly went up to hug the little tail that Zheng Juan was holding.

"Dad! Mom!"

"Brother, sister-in-law, sister! Brother-in-law!" Zheng Juan smiled and greeted everyone one by one.

The children also called their grandparents, aunt and uncle one by one.

Little Tail was in Li Suhua's arms and curiously asked, "Grandma, you haven't been home for several days? I miss you."

In the past few years, Zheng Juan has been busy with her private restaurant, so she doesn't spend as much time with Little Tail on weekdays as Li Suhua.

"Grandma misses you too!" Li Suhua lovingly kissed Little Tail on the face.

Everyone quickly helped Zheng Juan carry large and small bags of things into the house.

Li Suhua sat on the kang holding her little tail, Zhou Zhigang sat opposite, and Zheng Juan sat next to her. Zhou Rong took out the peanuts, melon seeds and candies from the cabinet. Although Hao Dongmei was a little embarrassed, she still poured a cup of hot milk for Zheng Juan.

water.

"Little Tail! Do you know who I am?" This was the first time Zhou Zhigang and Little Tail met. Looking at Little Tail, who had red lips and white teeth, and was a little timid, Zhou Zhigang's unhappiness seemed to be forgotten all at once, and he bent over

Yao started talking to the little tail sitting in front of Li Suhua.

Unexpectedly, Little Tails said, "You are grandpa!"

Zhou Zhigang was stunned, "How do you know I am your grandfather?"

"Grandpa is in the photo at home." Xiaowei is an honest person. Zhou Zhigang has a little more silver hair than in the photo, but generally there is no change. Li Suhua often shows the photo to let Xiaowei recognize him.

"Can grandpa give you a hug?" Zhou Zhigang was so happy that his grandson, whom he had never met before, actually remembered him. Even Wang Zhong's anger at not coming in when he arrived at the door of his house was forgotten.

But Little Tail didn't show much respect, simply shook his head and refused, and shrank in Li Suhua's arms.

Not only does the little guy look very much like Zheng Juan, he also has a gentle and quiet temperament, unlike a boy.

But Zhou Zhigang just likes this kind of quiet and well-behaved children, especially when they are separated by a generation. The idea of ​​kissing each other is not just talk.

Seeing that his efforts to hug him were fruitless, Zhou Zhigang started teasing his little tail again in a different way.

Zhou Ming and Zhou Ling also came to join in the fun. They had met Zhou Zhigang when they were children, but they were too young at that time and had no memory of him.

Zhou Zhigang was extremely fond of Little Tails and the twins Zhou Ming and Zhou Ling. After a while, the three little ones gathered around Zhou Zhigang and pulled out his silver-white beard.

Lao Zhou grimaced in pain, but the smile never broke on his face.

After playing for a while, the children became more and more familiar with Zhou Zhigang. The grandparents and grandchildren talked more and more enthusiastically, looking like they were enjoying themselves. Li Suhua next to him felt very happy.

As soon as there were more children, the whole family became lively, but the two-room old Zhou family inevitably seemed a bit small. Zhou Zhigang and his wife, Zhou Bingyi and his wife, Zhou Rong and his family of three, and Zheng Juan and their four children, together

Twelve people, crowded together in the east room, are so popular.

Especially the twins Zhou Ming and Zhou Ling, without Wang Zhong, these two guys are really capable and very naughty. Fortunately, there is still Zhou Cong who can barely control them.

Although Zhou Cong is only fifteen years old, he has a very calm temperament, even a bit sophisticated. I don't know whether it is because he has been following Ma Shou for a long time, he has been influenced by it, or it is just like this.

Zheng Juan and her children stayed in the old house all day. After dinner, around six o'clock, Wang Zhong drove over and took Zheng Juan and the children back.

When they were saying goodbye, Zhou Zhigang watched his grandchildren walk out of the house and out of the yard one by one. Before getting in the car, he did not forget to wave goodbye to him with a smiling face. He felt very reluctant to leave, especially because the children invited him to go back to their home to play next time.

When asked, Zhou Zhigang didn’t even know how to answer the call.

Watching the car gradually go away and the taillights disappearing at the end of the alley, Zhou Zhigang suddenly felt empty in his heart. When he returned to the house, Zhou Zhigang, who had been smiling all day long, became silent again.
