"Who is it? It's so early in the morning." Hearing the knock on the door, the captain's wife asked impatiently.
When I opened the door, I found a handsome man holding the poor little girl from Lao Meng's family in his arms.
"Good morning, uncle. Is he up?"
The captain's wife used a ray of morning light to identify her carefully and shouted: "Oh, this is Yun Zhiqing! Are you back?"
"Well, I'm back."
"Lao Yu, come quickly, Lao Meng's son-in-law Yun Zhiqing is back."
Captain Yu heard the sound and came out to take a look. He stepped forward excitedly and said, "You are really an educated youth. Come inside and tell me."
The two sons and daughters-in-law of the brigade captain's family, as well as the grandchildren, were in the yard, lighting fires and washing themselves.
The captain and his wife led Yunfei and his daughter into the main room, "Sit down quickly."
The captain looked at Yunfei who was even more handsome than before and said with emotion: "Hey, it's a pity, Meng Xiaoxia, she couldn't wait until you came back."
Although there is a plot where Yunfei knows that his wife is dead, but according to the original character, he does not know that his wife is dead at this time.
So Yunfei showed his eagerness at the right time and asked: "What do you mean you can't wait until I come back? What happened to Xiaoxia?
And why is this child in my hands sleeping on the doorstep of the Meng family?"
Logically speaking, he shouldn't know that the child is his daughter's, because the child's appearance clearly does not look like that of a three-year-old baby.
"Is this...the Lao Meng family abusing their children again? We have looked for them before,
They promised not to abuse children, and we can’t just keep watching, and you think this is a big deal, ugh!”
"This baby is your own daughter! Xiaoxia was not lucky. She started bleeding heavily after giving birth to this girl. The Lao Meng family was not willing to send her to the hospital at that time." The captain sighed helplessly.
Yunfei lowered his head at this moment, his tone full of frustration, "It's my fault. I didn't have the ability to take them both away together."
The captain wanted to say a few words of comfort, but he couldn't. After all, it was really up to him! He had been away for almost four years before he came back.
Everyone speculated that he, like those educated youths who were getting divorced, would never come back after returning to the city.
I didn't expect that this person could come back, and he still has some conscience after all.
The captain couldn't help but asked reproachfully: "Where have you been all these years? Why haven't you written a letter back? Have you received the letter we sent over here?"
Yun Fei: ...I received it, but I threw it into the trash without reading it! If he wasn't afraid that the letter would fall into other people's hands, he wouldn't even take it with him.
"I'm busy with my studies. I didn't receive the letter. Maybe it was sent to my home address."
Speaking of studies, the captain asked with concern: "How is your studies now?"
"I won't graduate until next year, and it's summer vacation now, so I took the time to come back and wanted to pick up Xiaoxia and the kids, but I didn't expect..."
After the college entrance examination was resumed, Yunfei entered college on March 7, 1978. It is now the summer vacation of 1981, so he will not graduate until next year.
"That's good. Yun Zhiqing is a capable person. Xiaohua will follow you and she will be sure to make mistakes in the future." The captain praised happily.
People in this era respect college students very much, because after graduation, the state will assign a job unit.
Finally getting to the point, Yunfei secretly breathed a sigh of relief. All the acting skills he had accumulated in two lifetimes were almost used up.
"Uncle, this is why I came here this time. Can you see if I can get a certificate of opening or something? I want to take my children back to Guangzhou." Yunfei sincerely requested.
"You should. Go back to the team later and I'll take care of it for you."
The captain readily agreed to this matter. After all, he couldn't bear to see the Meng family treating a child like this.
It's just a family matter after all. He can reprimand him a few times, but he can't control it too much, otherwise the child will suffer even more when he can't see it.
…………
When they arrived at the production team's office, the team leader gave the completed certificate to Yunfei.
Then he asked hesitantly: "Have you discussed this matter with your father-in-law and mother-in-law?"
"I'll come over later to talk to the two elders."
The captain glanced at the baby in Yun Fei's hand, sighed and said, "Don't blame them, every household in Jing's family doesn't have enough to eat this year.
Your brother-in-law's wife is not an economical person either. If the baby didn't have her grandmother, the baby might not even be able to wait for you to come back."
Yunfei glanced at the scars on the child's body and cursed in his heart, but smiled gently on his face, "Uncle, I can do it."
In front of Meng's house, Yunfei paid for a steamed bun and gave it to Yun Xiaohua to eat first.
"Daddy, time." The girl said calmly.
Seeing the girl's cute and pitiful appearance, Yunfei's heart ached.
Woohoo~~Don't stop him! He'll slap himself in the face when he gets back. He's such a scumbag, but he actually has such a sensible and well-behaved daughter.
"Daddy doesn't want to eat, but the baby does. First, nap your belly, and when you finish your work, daddy will take you to eat something delicious."
It's not that Yunfei doesn't want to buy one more, but no one has that much extra grain to sell these days.
This steamed bun was intended to be given to pregnant women at home, but they felt sorry for the baby in Yunfei's hands, so they agreed to sell it to him.
After Yun Xiaohua repeatedly confirmed that her father would not eat, she carefully began to eat the multi-grain steamed buns.
Take small bites and eat them with great appreciation.
………
Knock knock~~
"Who is it?" an old and somewhat weak voice asked.
Yunfei knew that only his mother-in-law was at home at this moment, and everyone else had gone to work in the fields.
My mother-in-law is old and not in good health. According to the captain, she can basically only do housework and help take care of the children at home.
"mom."
After opening the door, Yunfei called out "Mom!" which made the old lady confused.
The next moment she recognized him, this man was her son-in-law who had been back in the city for a few years!
"Is it Yunfei? Why did you come back?" The old lady thought of her poor daughter, and her tears fell instantly.
"Come inside quickly."
Yunfei refused, "Mom, I won't go in."
Then Yunfei took advantage of the fact that no one was around and stuffed three big unity cards into the old lady's face, which was more than half of his original net worth.
"Mom, I have heard about Xiaoxia and Xiaohua. I am very grateful to you for raising Xiaohua.
I came back this time to pick her up, and the captain of the certification team also gave me a certificate. You can keep this money for yourself.
As for the others, I'm gone. Although I can understand you, it doesn't mean I don't complain."
This series of words made the old lady feel shameless, and she had no choice as her daughter-in-law controlled her family.
When the daughter-in-law doesn't get her way, she makes the whole family uneasy, and there's nothing she can do more than save the baby from stuttering in her own mouth.
"Mom doesn't want it, just take it! Keep it for Xiaohua to buy food." The old lady was crying and wanted to give the money back to Yunfei.
