"Well, it all depends on dad's arrangements." Sheng Xiping and his brothers responded in unison.
"Okay, that's settled then.
Damn it, my dear, hurry up and pack up the food. After eating, I have to check with the boss about how to connect this house."
Sheng Liancheng waved his hand and asked Zhang Shuzhen to quickly pack up the food and eat.
Zhang Shuzhen responded, led the two girls, and quickly set the table and put away the food.
As soon as the food was put away and everyone was using their chopsticks to eat, they heard someone greeting them outside.
"Brother Sheng, have you finished get off work? Brothers and sisters, what are you cooking for tonight? I'm here to grab a bite to eat."
As soon as Sheng Xiping heard the news, he immediately put on his shoes and walked out.
"Master, why are you here at this late hour? Come on, get in the house quickly."
Sheng Xiping came out of the house, didn't look at what was going on outside, and opened his mouth to say.
"Is he the eldest nephew of the Sheng family?
Oh, I have to thank you. If it weren’t for your help, the second pillar of our family would have been responsible."
Outside the main gate of Sheng's house, several people walked in. One of them, an older man, stepped forward and held Sheng Xiping's hand.
Sheng Xiping was stunned and looked at the other person carefully for a few times before he recognized who the other person was.
Qi Yongfu, a man from the old Qi family of Dajian Chang, is also the father of the second pillar who was scratched by the black blind man.
"Hey, Uncle Qi, why are you here? How is Erzhu? Are you discharged from the hospital?"
Sheng Xiping is busy these days and doesn't pay much attention to Erzhuzi.
Counting that, Erzhu was hospitalized for more than a month. He should be discharged, right?
"Discharged, discharged, just came back this morning.
His face was ruined and he lost one eye. No matter what, it was good to save his life.
My eldest nephew, I really want to thank you. If you hadn't helped find a motorcycle that day, our second pillar would have been dead.
If he leaves and leaves behind a wife who is still pregnant with a child, how will he live like this?"
Qi Yongfu burst into tears as he spoke.
"Eldest nephew, on behalf of your aunt, Erzhuzi, and Erzhuzhu's wife, thank you."
As he spoke, Qi Yongfu was about to kneel down to Sheng Xiping.
"Oh, uncle, you are trying to shorten my life.
Although Erzhuzi and I are not familiar with each other, don't we live in this ravine anyway? Then I can just watch and watch something happen to Erzhuzi?
Uncle, we are all neighbors, please don’t do this, I can’t bear it.”
How could Sheng Xiping make him kneel down? He quickly stretched out his hand to support Qi Yongfu, pushed up with both hands, and helped Qi Yongfu stand upright.
"Brother, thank you so much.
When I was sent to the hospital, the doctor said that if it had been delayed a little longer, my brother would definitely not be saved."
Another person came forward and handed what he was carrying to Sheng Xiping.
"This is a little thing brought back from Songjiang River. It is the heart of our family. Brother, don't be too little. Don't accept it."
"Brother, look, what are you doing?
I can’t take the things away, so I’ll take them back later to replenish brother Erzhu’s body. He needs replenishment most now.”
Sheng Xiping took a look and saw that the other party was carrying two things, snacks and cans. How could he accept them?
Even if the Qi family wanted to thank them, they should also thank Secretary Wang and the driver. Why would they thank him with so many things?
"No, no, brother, don't do this. If you don't accept it, our whole family will feel bad.
My brother is doing well now and will be able to take care of himself after being hospitalized for a month or so.
This is what our family wants, and you must accept it."
Qi Changzhu, the boss of the Qi family, was pushing something into Sheng Xiping's hand as he spoke.
"Yes, yes, eldest nephew, you must accept these things. This is a little bit of our family's wishes."
Over there, Qi Yongfu also spoke for his son.
When Sheng Xiping saw this, he could only sigh.
"Uncle Qi, Brother Dazhuhu, I accept your wishes. But I really can't accept these things.
I just went to run some errands and offered a word of help.
There is no secretary to nod, no driver to drive, so what’s the use of just talking?
If you want to thank me, you should thank the forest farm secretary and the driver."
Sheng Xiping didn't mean to find fault, he just wanted to give the Qi family a warning.
Regarding Erzhu, the person the Qi family should be most grateful for is not him, but the people who came out of the car.
As soon as Sheng Xiping said these words, both the Qi family and his son were stunned for a moment, as if they didn't react for a moment.
But Liu Changde over there quickly answered, "Yes, yes, Mr. Qi said the same thing.
But since they don’t recognize the secretary of your forest farm and the driver that day, doesn’t that mean they can’t go there first?
That's why you asked me to accompany you. I want to thank you first. Then you can help guide me to the house of your secretary and the driver."
When Liu Changde said this, the Qi family's father and son reacted immediately and nodded quickly.
"That's right, I have to ask my eldest nephew to help lead the way."
"Look, what's so troublesome about this?
It just so happens that we are all at home after get off work now, so I will accompany Uncle Qi and Brother Dazhuhu to go to Secretary Wang’s house."
When Sheng Xiping heard this, he immediately laughed and followed the words of Qi's father and son.
"Master, then you go ahead and sit in the room for a while. I will accompany Uncle Qi and the others to the homes of Secretary Wang and Master Huang.
We'll be back soon, and then I'll have a couple of drinks with Master and Uncle Qi."
The Qi family's father and son took a lot of things, divided them into two pieces, and gave them to Wang Jiachuan and the driver Lao Huang.
This not only saves the Qi family money, but also shows that the Qi family knows how to do things.
As for Sheng Xiping, he really doesn't want anything from the Qi family.
They all live in the same place, come and go frequently, and we will get along slowly in the future.
When Qi Yongfu heard this, he understood what Sheng Xiping meant.
"Oh, nephew, how can this be done? Look, how embarrassed are we?"
It's because they didn't think carefully about the matter. They only wanted to thank Sheng Xiping, but they didn't take into account the forest farm secretary and driver.
As a result, they helped me think about it and returned it to me. I really had no choice in handling this matter.
"It's okay, uncle. We, fellow villagers, say things that are foreign to others.
That’s it, let’s go to Secretary Wang’s house first.”
Sheng Xiping smiled and stretched out his hand, supporting Qi Yongfu, and nodded towards Qi Changzhu.
Just like that, he led the father and son of the Qi family out of the Sheng family and went straight to the home of Wang Jiachuan, secretary of the forestry farm.
There happened to be a firewood pile opposite the Wang family's gate, so Sheng Xiping put the missing items in Qi Changzhu's hand behind the firewood pile.
Then the three people carried their things and entered the gate of Wang's house.
"Is Uncle Wang home?" Sheng Xiping called as soon as he entered the door.
Most people in the Northeast don't close the door until they go to bed at night.
No matter whose house you are going to, stand at the gate and shout to remind the host that someone is coming to the house.
If there is a dog at home, the dog must bark a few times.
When people in the house heard it, they all came out to take a look and welcome people into the house.
If there is a dog at home, the owner must come out and watch the dog to prevent it from biting anyone.
