Film policeman Zhang Baocheng personally handed over the money and food stamps to Wang Yunlin.

In order to allow Wang Yunlin to spend it with peace of mind, he listened to Hong Yanwu's advice and said that the Dongzhuang Police Station had recovered the money Hong Yanwu had lost. Naturally, he also told the Hong family about Hong Yanwu's assistance to the police in catching the thief at this time, and praised Hong Yanwu for this in front of the Hong family.

To the Hong family, this news is as fresh as a dog digging out a bone and digging out gold, or a hen laying a phoenix egg in the upper room.

Father and son, Hong Lucheng and Hong Yanzheng, stopped talking, but it could be seen that they were silently relieved in their hearts, and seemed to begin to feel that this son, this brother, was not completely hopeless.

Hong Yanru's smile was more like a flower. She stared at her brother as if she were a real hero. Her eager and admiring gaze made Hong Yanwu, who thought he had perfected his face, quite embarrassed.

But the one who shines the most is Hong Yanwu’s biological mother.

In Wang Yunlin's heart, her mother's tears were not in vain, and her years of expectation and prayers were not in vain after all.

In a sense, her son is truly back!

After Zhang Baocheng left the Hong family, his neighbor's wife, La Bian, also deliberately left a few words of advice because she hadn't seen Hong Yanwu for a long time.

This old lady is a very enthusiastic and enthusiastic person. She is also happy that Hong Yanwu can learn well and looks at him with a smile on her face.

"I knew you were coming back this month, but I don't know the specific date. As soon as I heard at the police station that you brat was back, I was thinking about coming back to see you after the meeting..."

"I miss you, aunt. I was granted leave just after the holiday, and I thought I would be back in a few days, so I didn't send a letter home..."

"Well, you and Quanzi are both good kids. You got a government reward for saving people in the earthquake. Especially I didn't expect that you could help the police catch thieves. You are really making progress..."

"It was thanks to Quanzi that I was able to save people during the earthquake. Catching the thief was just a coincidence, so that's what I did..."

"After all, I have made a difference, and my speech is no longer limitless. I am a down-to-earth person, which is good."

"How is Uncle Bian? How is your health?"

"He's still like that, busier than me. Cheng Tianjie is either playing with flowers or fishing. You said he fishes in summer, but he also fishes in winter. Today he went out again and hasn't come back yet. What a shame. Worrying! I'm afraid that one day he might slip and fall into a hole in the ice. I think it would be better for the government to enact a law to ban fishing and sentence old people to it... …”

In front of the cripple, the wife realized something while she was nagging and quickly shut up. In order to cover up her embarrassment, she pretended to touch Hong Yanwu's cotton-padded jacket.

"It's not too thick, that is to say, you are a strong young man, but it will be warm soon... By the way, I almost forgot. You don't need to go to the 'Ethnic Affairs Committee', so as to save you having to deal with it again. That 'stinky hut', Qiang Qiang, I'll handle all the registration procedures (in dialect, etc.) for you."

"Thank you, aunt."

"Don't be polite to me. I'm not targeting your mother. For more than a year now, I've been looking at her with her fingers crossed, hoping for you to come back. It's better now. I can't even get along with my old sister. It's on my lips..."

The old Bian’s wife is already over sixty years old this year. Although her hair is completely white, her face is rosy, showing sharpness and energy.

In comparison, Wang Yunlin still has several years to go before she turns sixty, but her spirit is very weak, her hair is gray, and her face is full of worrying colors, making her look much older. Although he is indeed smiling now, there is also an unspeakable bitterness.

This kind of discovery immediately made Hong Yanwu Ping feel a lot of sadness and self-blame. He was also an old man and knew exactly what was going on.

He knew that the eldest daughter of his aunt was selling soda in Taoranting Park, the second son was working as a waiter in a bathhouse on Zixin Road, and the younger son was currently working as an educated youth in the Inner Mongolia Corps.

Although several people's jobs were not very good, none of them had anything wrong with them, so the old lady's life was much more satisfactory than that of her mother. And because of herself, my mother couldn't compare with others.

"You have to be considerate, kid. Even if you don't do anything, you have to think about your mother! My child, you have to give your mother credit!"

This was on point, and Hong Yanwu quickly agreed.

"Hey."

"As promised, I won't agree to make your mother sad again!"

He nodded firmly again.

"Don't worry."

Having said that it was almost done by now, my wife was also afraid that she would cause trouble if she delayed any longer, so she said goodbye and walked out.

However, although the old lady did not look back, she was still talking to Wang Yunlin and Hong Yanwu who were sent out behind her.

"Yunlin, hurry up and cook. If you need anything, come to my place and get it. Don't be embarrassed. Are you making braised noodles? Are there any eggs? Are the noodles enough? Whatever you say, let the children do it. A pleasant meal is not..."

"Third brother, as long as you work hard and do serious things from now on, don't make your mother angry. After working for a few more years, I'm sure my aunt will introduce you to a good partner. Do you think so? Silly boy..."

In fact, this enthusiastic old lady has no education, but I have to say that she is particularly good at talking at certain times, and this time she spoke to Wang Yunlin's heart.

Wang Yunlin couldn't help but look at her son with a smile. "Look what you said..."

Not long after his wife left, Wang Yunlin cheered up and took Hong Yanru back to work in the kitchen. Hong Yanwu's sister-in-law, Xu Manli, also pushed a bicycle and brought the only third generation member of the Hong family into the house.

It was a coincidence today that Xu Manli received a call from her parents' home when she was at work. She rode back to her parents' home after get off work. Although she was late to pick up her son Hong Jun from kindergarten, she brought back a cloth bag. When she walked in, her eyes were still shining.

Hong Yanzheng was a little baffled when he saw his wife being so happy, and quickly asked what was wrong.

As a result, Xu Manli took out the contents of her pocket and showed them in front of everyone, which shocked the whole room.

After the festival, a distant relative from Shan (West) Fenyang came to the Xu family. This man was from a local winery and had just been promoted to deputy director. He was on a business trip to Beijing for the first time due to official business.

In those days, it was not easy for people who came to Beijing to get things done.

Not only are the procedures complicated and there are countless stamps to be affixed, but most people may not be able to figure out the location and authority of each temple gate. Besides, the office atmosphere back then was very procrastinating and very inefficient.

So this distant relative of the Xu family was very unfamiliar with the situation in the capital, so he turned around in the capital, and the matters at hand became more and more urgent.

But fortunately, he still has a relative like the old man of the Xu family, so he came to ask for help. After Mr. Xu learned about his difficulties, he also wholeheartedly helped guide, give guidance, and make connections. Soon, the matter was completed smoothly.

So when this distant relative left, in order to express his gratitude, he bought a lot of cooked meats, canned food and pastries for the Xu family through the relationship with the cooperative unit. In addition, he also left half of the good wine from their winery. box.

So what Xu Manli brought back that day was not only a large box of pastries, a large roast chicken, four canned fruits, four luncheon meats, six thick and strong ham sausages, but also two bottles of good wine. It can be said to be a dazzling array of things.

These things are quite heavy. Xu Manli didn’t dare to ride with her children while carrying her things. In fact, she took her children and things from the kindergarten and pushed the car back. This is why she came in late today. main reason.

As the saying goes, "good things come in pairs", this is really a blessing. Wang Yunlin kept sighing in joy that her in-laws were still considerate and thought of everything.

In this way, that night, under the dim light, the whole Hong family gathered together for a rare and hearty reunion dinner.

Hong Lucheng made an exception and got up from the bed. He also sat at the dinner table under a thick quilt. His eyes were kind and calm, and he picked up chopsticks with trembling hands to eat by himself like everyone else.

Wang Yunlin, who entered the room carrying a noodle pot from the kitchen, looked calm and clear. As soon as she opened the pot, the aroma of braised noodles filled the whole room.

Hong Yanru helped her mother serve noodles to everyone. After serving the first bowl to her father, she placed the second bowl in front of Hong Yanwu.

Hong Yanwu was too embarrassed to eat first, so he gave the noodle bowl to his elder brother. Hong Yan was very fond of his daughter-in-law, so he pushed her to Xu Manli. Xu Manli naturally blushed, and finally put the noodle bowl back in front of Hong Yanwu.

It wasn't until Hong Yanru brought two more bowls of noodles that this round of politeness and humility ended.

Five-year-old Hong Jun was almost asleep in his mother's arms. When he smelled the aroma of braised noodles, his eyes widened again and he opened his little hands to eat. Xu Manli had no choice but to feed her son with her own noodles first.

Hong Jun is a stupid boy. His eyes look like his mother's, his nose looks like his father's, his skin is quite dark and he has a lot of flesh, but he doesn't look fat.

The way he ate was like a little tiger. Although his eyes kept looking at the strange uncle Hong Yanwu, he didn't delay eating the noodles at all. After a while of "snoring", less than half the bowl was gone.

Hong Yanwu loves this black boy in his heart. This feeling is something he has never felt before. In his previous life, he had a falling out with his eldest brother, and his relationship with his nephew was like a passerby.

"Jun'er, let's compete! Let's see who eats faster! Look, uncle ate, half a bowl in one bite..."

Hong Yanwu started teasing the little man, but Hong Jun ignored him and continued to enjoy his meal.

As a result, Hong Yanwu was extremely happy and sad. He sucked down a big mouthful of noodles and almost choked into a purple eggplant. He groaned for a long time, and some noodles actually came out of his nose.

This made my father cough, his eldest brother scolded him for being stupid, and his mother, sister-in-law and sister all covered their mouths and laughed at him.

But Hong Yanwu's heart was hotter than the noodles in the bowl. This kind of family happiness is really comforting. I can’t blame some people for saying that having a wife and children on the hot bed is the greatest happiness in the world!

This is the first dinner after returning home, so good!
