Mr. Zhao didn't recognize Shen Jianfeng when he came over. "Who is sir?"
"Is this Zhao Manfei's home?"
"Yes, yes, you are?"
It has been almost two years since my daughter passed away and I received a letter. Now Mr. Zhao is still a little excited when he hears his daughter’s name.
Shen Jianfeng took out a cloth bag and said, "Zhao Manfei asked me to bring this back. If you have the letter, I can take it back, but it may take a year before I can give it to her."
"Sir, please invite me to the living room for tea." Although I have my daughter's letter in my hand, I still want to know more about her. I don't need to read the letter to tell about good news or not. I want to know the real situation of my daughter.
Shen Jianfeng knew that he must not hand over the letter and leave. "Mr. Zhao, I have something else to do, please hurry up."
"Okay, okay, sir, please invite me to the living room for tea." This was the sentence that made me excited.
I told the maid to ask everyone in the family to come to the living room and have people prepare snacks.
He couldn't wait to open the bag his daughter brought back. There was twenty yuan in it, "I have grown up, become sensible, and know how to be filial to me."
Shen Jianfeng was really envious when he heard his proud words and thought.
The Zhao family is very fast. Mr. Zhao gave the letter to his wife.
Mother Zhao wiped her tears while reading the letter, muttering something about "silly girl".
"Sir, thank you so much. I am writing a letter to my daughter, so I still need to trouble you, sir."
Shen Jianfeng nodded, "Mr. Zhao, you can't carry anything, it can only be a letter, and it shouldn't be too thick, I can't pretend."
Mr. Zhao nodded, "Of course, sir, how is my Xiaofei?"
"We are not together, so I can't say exactly what happened, but I know she is a very good doctor."
The Zhao family was very excited when they heard the news.
"Sir, I wonder when Xiaofei can go home?"
"I don't know about that."
After asking, Mr. Zhao felt that it was wrong to ask, and there was something wrong with him.
After the family circulated the letter, Mr. Zhao began to study and write a letter.
Zhao Manfei's mother was crying and writing a letter. Her daughter was in a dangerous place and could lose her life at any time if she said something bad. She used to think about it every day, but now she finally knows the news and she doesn't know what to tell her.
I'm afraid of delaying other people's affairs, so I write letters very quickly.
Shen Jianfeng didn't look at it. After putting it away, he stood up and said, "Goodbye."
Mother Zhao said, "Sir, does my Xiaofei have any close comrades?"
Shen Jianfeng was stunned for a moment. He could tell his family that two people were in love, but that was because it was the man. The girl wrote the letter and did not tell her family about her relationship, so he really couldn't say anything.
"I'm sorry, I don't know."
In fact, Zhao's mother saw that Shen Jianfeng was quite handsome, so she knew that he must be from nearby, and maybe the two of them had a good relationship in private.
After hearing the answer, I was really a little disappointed. My daughter is already nineteen years old and she is an old girl. I don’t know when she will come back. How great would it be if she found a partner?
"Sir, wait a minute, this is a little trivial matter in our family."
The servants outside have prepared a basket of gifts.
Shen Jianfeng shook his head, "Thank you Mr. Zhao, I don't accept gifts."
If there is no shortage of food at home, even if we need to find a solution on our own, we cannot accept this kind of gift.
"Sir, it's not easy for you to take the risk."
Shen Jianfeng shook his head and strode towards the door.
The Zhao family chased them out and watched as they walked away, "It seems they really don't want to accept her."
"Let Xiao Fei do favors from now on." Mother Zhao just looked at Shen Jianfeng and thought that there might be another chance.
There is only the Zhao family in the county town, and there are two more families that have to walk thirty miles south from the city. They are both in the countryside and are much safer than the county town.
His steps were very fast, and he came back when he passed the grocery store.
I went in and bought four packs of snacks and four packs of brown sugar. The two fellow villagers were married and had children at home. I couldn’t go there empty-handed, so I had to bring something with me.
That is, an hour later, he entered the village. He knew the location of the village, but he still had to inquire after entering the village.
The snow fell late this year. It was the 16th day of the first lunar month and the snow was quite thick. There were not many people outside.
I had no choice but to knock on the door to inquire. In fact, I didn't knock on the door, I just stood outside the fenced yard and shouted.
Soon a man came out and said, "What do you want?"
"Brother, I want to ask where Cheng Erlin's family is."
"Who are you?" The person was quite cautious.
"I helped him bring back a letter."
"Qiangzi, who is it?"
An older man came out from behind the man.
"Dad, someone said there was a letter sent back to Erlin."
The older man came out and looked directly at Shen Jianfeng, "Comrade, I am the head of this village."
Shen Jianfeng laughed at his blind search and found the village chief's house.
"Village chief, take me to Cheng Erlin's house, and then to Zhou Jikuan's house later."
The village chief smiled now and said, "Okay."
"father."
"Don't worry, this must be a good comrade."
Two people from the village go to join the army together. If they can name two people at the same time, they should be in the army.
"Let's go, I'll take my comrade there."
From the looks of it, Shen Jianfeng's attire is not that of an ordinary person, he should belong to a wealthy family, but no matter what kind of person he is, as long as he is a comrade in the army.
"This is Cheng Erlin's house. Third brother, we have guests at home."
Of course the villagers were familiar with the sound. Soon an older man came out of the house.
"Whose guest is the third child?"
At this time, Shen Jianfeng had already followed to the door of the house.
"Third brother, this is Er Lin's friend. He brought back Er Lin's letter."
"Come in quickly. Come in."
Shen Jianfeng followed behind. He was so tall that his head almost reached the roof.
A little boy of five or six years old ran out, followed by a little girl of four or five years old.
I followed him into the house, and there was a dustpan on the kang, which must have been used to rub corn.
Shen Jianfeng was a little curious, where is Cheng Erlin's wife?
"Comrade, please sit down and I'll boil some water for you."
"Uncle, no need, I'm not thirsty. Are you Cheng Erlin's father?"
"Yes, yes, I am his father, and this is his son and daughter. You two will be called uncle."
The two children called to each other obediently. Shen Jianfeng placed two packets of snacks and two packets of brown sugar on the kang. "These are for you to eat."
The two children looked at Shen Jianfeng timidly and did not move, knowing that children in the countryside were like this.
"Uncle, where are the rest of the family?"
Father Cheng sighed, "Her mother died two years ago, and Erlin's wife ran away with the salesman. Now we, the three of us, are living together."
Shen Jianfeng's heart skipped a beat, thinking that this was really difficult. Cheng Erlin told himself not to take out the money yet, but that the money must be given to his father. It seemed that he was also wary of this wife.
He took out a letter and handed it to Father Cheng, "This is the letter Erlin asked me to bring back. This is the twenty yuan he brought back."
Father Cheng took it and put it on the kang. "Third brother, read the letter to me."
