A moment later, Hu Fei walked in with five wads of bright red banknotes in his hand, put them on the table, looked at his parents' stunned eyes, and said with a smile, "When I left the army, I helped the Public Security Bureau arrest a few wanted criminals.
This is the bonus they awarded me, which is more than 50,000 yuan."
"I spent a little, and the remaining fifty thousand is here."
"I'm just saying, my son is so smart and capable."
Yu Chunlan laughed heartily, picked up five wads of banknotes and stood up, "Son, your mother has saved this money for you, and you will use it when you go find someone to do things during the Chinese New Year. Now plus the 30,000 yuan at home, it should be enough."
Already."
"Well, that should be enough."
Hu Laifu also showed a smile and picked up the wine bowl, "Xiao Fei, you are smarter than dad. The conditions in our family are like this. From now on, our family will not be able to help you with anything. You have to rely on yourself for everything."
"Dad, you gave birth to me, raised me and sent me to study. I don't have to farm in the countryside. This is enough."
Hu Fei chuckled, picked up the wine bowl, clinked it, and took a big sip, "From now on, I will honor my parents and grandpa well. When my job stabilizes, I will go to Lengjiang to buy a house so that you can enjoy it too."
Enjoy."
"Silly boy, what parent doesn't want his son to live well?"
Yu Chunlan raised her hand and wiped her eyes, then slowly walked to the table and sat down, "Laifu, what kind of official did you say Chun Lai knew? Can he really help his son get a good job? Why don't you ask again?"
Ask him?"
"Mom, there's no need to find anyone, I'll just wait for the government to allocate it."
Hu Fei felt a little sad in his heart. His mother had always been very strong and never asked for help. Now she had to endure hardships for his job. Hu Chunlai was one of her suitors back then.
"You kid, how can you do that? The world is like this. If you want to assign a good job, how can you do it without recruiting people? No matter how capable you are, it will be useless if those officials don't give you a chance to perform."
Hu Laifu glared at Hu Fei, "Our family has been farmers for generations. We don't know which way the official door opens. Even if we have money, we can't find a way. Although Chunlai is only a cadre in the town, he also knows the big officials in the county."
Officer, if you have an acquaintance to help you talk, your chances will always be greater."
"Son, after the Chinese New Year, let's go visit Hu Chunlai. His family has moved to the county seat. I heard that he will be transferred to the county."
"Yes, I must go to pay him New Year's greetings, and bring him a bucket of tea oil from home. His wife likes to use tea oil for cooking." Yu Chunlan quickly agreed.
"Okay, Dad, we will go to the county seat then." Hu Fei nodded, "I have been away from home for so many years, and I am not filial to you enough, so I should be filial to you properly."
Next, the family ate very excitedly. Hu Laifu and his wife discussed New Year greetings. While drinking, Hu Fei listened to their arrangements and raised his head to look at the TV. Hao Ran was playing Yongzhou City on the TV screen.
News, I saw Li Guojun sitting on the rostrum with a solemn look on his face.
After lunch, Hu Fei returned to the room, packed his luggage, and said hello to his mother to go out for a look. He hadn't been back to his hometown for a long time, and he wanted to go out for a look.
"Laifu, why are you so nervous at noon? How can you show your son's face?"
Seeing Hu Fei walking away, Yu Chunlan snorted, "It's not enough for my son to gain face for you. Why take it out on him?"
"Chunlan, the kidnapper asked me today where my son was born in Huizhou. Does he know anything?"
Hu Laifu's face darkened and his voice lowered, "We came back too hastily back then. We should wait until Xiao Fei is older before coming back."
"It's not the old man who wants to come back. I told you not to come back so early." Yu Chunlan snorted, "Who in the village knows?"
"I haven't heard anyone say that."
Hu Laifu shook his head, "However, now that Xiao Fei is back, there may be more rumors in the village. Chunlan, I have an idea. Let Xiao Fei go to work in the county town, so that there will be less chance of him coming back. Try to keep these messy things to a minimum
Don't let him know."
"But my son is older, do we have to hide it from him for the rest of his life?"
Yu Chunlai frowned, "Even if my son was so filial, he wouldn't leave us alone even if he knew it. Besides, it was the old man who picked him up, not us who kidnapped him."
"When the child gets older, he will have his own ideas."
Hu Laifu sighed, "It's fate that he came to our house. It depends on God's will to meet and separate. We'll tell what happens in the future."
Hu Fei walked in the fields. Although it didn't snow, the field ridges were still muddy. It must have been because of the rain. The climate in the south of the Yangtze River was not as humid as that in the northwest, but the winter was colder.
Looking at the familiar fields in front of him, Hu Fei suddenly remembered how he used to carry bamboo baskets to catch loaches and eels in the fields when he was a child, and he even felt a little anxious in his heart.
At this moment, the mobile phone rang. Hu Fei took out his mobile phone, took a look at it, and immediately answered the call, "Hi, beauty, is it still early to say New Year's greetings?"
"You are so beautiful and I wish you a happy new year. Don't you know I am a girl?"
A playful voice came from the microphone, "By the way, I'm going back to Qixi County on the second day of the Lunar New Year. Do you have time? If you have time, why don't we have a meal together?"
"It's my second year in junior high school. I may not have time."
A wry smile appeared on Hu Fei's face, "Well, if I don't have time, I'll call you. It doesn't have to be the second year of junior high school. When will you return to Lengjiang?"
"I don't know, I guess I'll have to play for a few days, but I have to go to work on the seventh day of the lunar month."
"Then don't worry, it's not far to the county seat anyway."
Hu Fei smiled into the microphone and said, "We haven't seen each other for many years, so we can have a good get-together. It would be even better if we have classmates from junior high school together."
Friends should still keep in touch with each other and get together occasionally. This is the way to maintain long-lasting friendship. Hu Fei used to be in the military academy and worked outside during the summer. He did not come back for a short time during the Chinese New Year. Now that he is back to work, his former classmates and friends
Naturally, we have to connect.
"Well, leave this matter to me."
Yang Qianxi on the other side of the microphone became excited, "By the way, you are not allowed to call me Yang Qianxi from now on. Just call me Qianxi. By the way, do you still remember my cousin?"
"Remember, that beautiful girl who was an English teacher?"
Hu Fei smiled into the phone and said, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing. I have a good impression of you, my soldier brother. Please let me ask you if you have a girlfriend?"
A stunningly beautiful face flashed through Hu Fei's mind, and his mood suddenly became depressed, "It happened before, but she dumped me."
There was silence on the other side of the phone for a moment.
"Hu Fei, there is no grass anywhere in the world. With your character, appearance and talent, we cannot find any girl from the south of the Yangtze River. Let go of the past and face the present."
"Qianxi, thank you."
Hu Fei felt a warmth in his chest. Yes, let go of the past and face the present. At least the three elderly people in the family should be able to enjoy happiness before talking about other things. After all, they have worked hard all their lives.
