"In the future, it will not be easy to hear that barbell-like laughter again."
Chu Heng smacked his mouth with some sadness, walked up to the window and picked up a window grille that had fallen off the window at some point. He spit on it twice and then put it back on again. He wanted to get this
Stay happy for a while longer.
Then he stepped back to the backyard.
At this time, the backyard was also quiet, and there was no movement in each house. Even the noisy dogs huddled in their kennels and did not come out to greet him.
Maybe they are also feeling sad about the moving away of one of their family members.
"Tap tap tap."
Chu Heng went straight to the outside of the hall, stretched out his hand and gently opened the door, and saw sisters Ni Yinghong and Qin Jingru whispering to each other. Chu Zhecheng and Hu Niu, who had specially asked for leave today, were lying on the Arhat bed.
He fell asleep soundly, his little face flushed red.
Noticing his entry, the two women looked up.
"Back."
"elder brother."
"Oh." The heating in the room was a little hot. Chu Heng took off his coat and came to sit next to them. He looked at their red eyes and said with a smile, "What? Are you crying?"
"Why don't you cry?" Ni Yinghong sniffed when she heard the words, with a touch of sadness on her pretty face, and sighed: "I have lived with my cousin for several years, and now that she is getting married, she feels empty."
Qin Jingru also said with a sad face: "I feel very uncomfortable."
"What's so uncomfortable?" Chu Heng smiled and raised his hand, rubbed his wife's head, and ran his fingertips through her hair. Xiao Ni squinted his eyes comfortably: "Isn't life like this? Someone leaves.
You have to get used to people coming, and my cousin is entering another stage of her life, so we have to wish her well."
Qin Jingru looked enviously at Ni Yinghong, who could wag her tail if she had one, smiled, and said: "Oh, brother, we all understand the truth. You don't need to comfort or worry, we can just take it easy."
"Yes, we are fine." Ni Yinghong nodded lightly and leaned against her husband: "Actually, we are nothing. Didn't you see my aunt? When my cousin was just picked up, she was crying.
I was so tearful that I didn’t even eat lunch.”
"That's normal. When this girl gets married, she will become a member of another family. The mother-in-law is willing to let her go." Chu Heng sighed.
"My own mother can give it up." Qin Jingru was moved by the scene and smiled to herself.
"Tsk, you can do it. It's over now. Let's look at it later." Chu Heng looked at the second roommate who was complaining distressedly. After consoling him with Ni Yinghong, he got up and walked out of the house, saying goodbye.
I went to my aunt and talked to the deaf old lady and the others for a while to comfort them.
…
The next day.
At around seven o'clock in the morning, the Chu family was performing a drama that seemed like a life and death drama.
"Woo hoo...sister, I want my sister!"
Outside the hall, Chu Zhecheng was crying and holding on to Hu Niu's small schoolbag. He didn't want her to go to school, but wanted her to play with him at home.
"Godmother, I don't want to go to school!" Huniu couldn't bear to make her brother cry, so she begged Ni Yinghong with her pink face raised.
Ni Yinghong, who had been discussing for a while but still couldn't figure out her son, frowned and had no choice but to use her trump card and shouted to the bathroom in a sweet voice: "Chu Heng, please take care of your son!"
"three……"
The sound of Chu Heng counting down the numbers immediately came from the toilet.
Chu Zhecheng's expression changed, and he hurriedly let go of his hands, holding them behind his back, looking at Huniu with tears in his eyes, but he did not dare to make any more trouble.
Soon, Chu Heng came out with his pants lifted, looked at the prince with a sullen face like a frightened rabbit, and scolded: "I'm telling you for the last time, Chu Zhecheng, you have to wait until September after the new year to go to kindergarten.
If you make a fuss over this matter again in the future, believe it or not, I will open a flower on your butt for you?"
"Yeah." Chu Zhecheng nodded aggrievedly.
The sensible Huniu couldn't bear it, so she shouted to Chu Heng: "Godfather, I won't go to school, okay? I want to stay with my brother at home."
"Meat for lunch in kindergarten today." Chu Heng said calmly.
Huniu's eyes lit up and she immediately put her brother behind her and jumped excitedly: "I want to go to school, I want to go to school!"
"Haha, this little greedy girl." The aunt on the side couldn't help laughing.
Ni Yinghong also pursed her lips and smiled softly.
"Then let's go."
Chu Heng reached out and took the handbag from Ni Yinghong, bent down and picked up Huniu who was looking forward to it, said hello to his family and walked out.
After a while, the father and daughter came to the door. As soon as Chu Heng opened the door of the Volga, a neighbor's aunt passed by and greeted with a smile: "Send the child to the education red class, Chu Suo."
"Ah?" Chu Heng couldn't help but was stunned, and then realized that she was talking about kindergarten, and responded with a smile: "Oh, yes, let's go shopping for groceries, Aunt Geng."
"I'm going to buy groceries. I heard that there are leeks in the grocery store today. I have to go and wait in line."
"Really? Then hurry up. It's not easy to get some leeks in this winter. If you go late, you probably won't be able to get in line."
"Well, I didn't get it last time, so don't talk anymore, I have to go."
"Hey, see you later."
Chu Heng raised his hand to signal, then put Huniu into the back seat of the car, and then drove away quickly. He first sent Huniu to the kindergarten, and then went straight to the grain management office.
There was nothing important at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at the moment. He planned to take advantage of this free time to handle the official duties at the Grain Management Office, and then concentrate on the winery.
In winter, Sijiu City is a bit depressing, with few pedestrians on the streets and everyone walking around in a hurry.
Chu Heng drove quickly on the empty road and arrived at the Grain Management Office in just twenty minutes.
Walking into the bright and clean office that Qin Jingru had tidied up, Chu Heng looked around and couldn't help but reveal a comfortable smile on his face. Then he quickly came to the desk and sat down. After making himself a pot of tea, he picked up the thick pile of tea on the table.
A thick layer of official documents begins to be reviewed and approved.
He was busy like this until after ten o'clock. He was reviewing a report and suddenly frowned and squinted at the content above.
At 11 o'clock in the night on October 3, the No. 6 Grain and Oil Store warehouse accidentally caught fire, resulting in a loss of 2,900 kilograms of rice and 1,200 kilograms of super rich flour... a total of 18,631 kilograms!
After deliberation and decision by the leadership of the Grain Management Office, Comrade Ji Yang, director of the Liuliang Store, was given a demerit as a punishment.
"You deserve a demerit for such a serious dereliction of duty?"
Chu Heng's face suddenly darkened, he immediately dropped the report in his hand, stood up and came to the door, opened the door and shouted: "Su Chen, come here quickly!"
After saying that, he turned back to his desk and sat down, staring at the report on the table with a heavy expression.
Not long after, Su Chen, who was called back from the Transportation Department, hurriedly knocked on the door and came in. His big, plump face was covered with oil and sweat.
