Chapter 77: Pension

Mr. Chen not only brought Tang Jinyu in the afternoon, he also brought all the children in the family.
The daughter of the eldest Chen Qiuguo, Hua Yan, is twelve years old this year. Because she came to live with her grandmother's house early during the holiday, she also happily followed along. In addition, the youngest girl of Chen Wenqian's second child, Chen Deyun, was also with her. The (guanguan) department is very good. The little sisters followed hand in hand, wondering where grandpa would take them.
Tang Hongjun also took his son’s little hand to follow behind. He whispered to the child about the geological features of this side as he walked. A rock on the side of the road (exposed) could be said for a long time. It was lively and interesting. The children looked up and interacted with him. , I am very happy walking and jumping.
Old man Chen didn't take them far. The road administration of the community across the road was under construction. A section of the road was closed. There were no cars in front and back. It was very safe. He took his son-in-law and a few children to stand here.
Before Tang Hongjun heard that his old man was doing road engineering, he chatted with him a few words, and Chen laughed and said, "It's here. Our family is responsible for this piece."
As I was talking, I saw a truck coming and unloading a truck of sand not far away. The driver stopped. After unloading the sand, he took three small excavators from the truck. It was a playground for children to play. The kind, put it there and beckoned with the old man, and drove away.
Tang Hongjun looked silly, "Dad, you said today to let the children come out to play..."
"It's great to play with excavators, and practice a craft!"
The two little girls have already happily ran over to play, it seems that this is not the first time they have played like this.
Old man Chen took Tang Jinyu by the hand, helped him up, and taught him how to operate the excavator. The machine was made many times smaller, but it looked a lot like it, with a hand crank and a foot brake.
Tang Hongjun helped take care of it. After watching it for a while, he smiled and said, "It's really interesting, I want to try it."
Elder Chen decided on the spot and shook his head and said, "You can't, this is just a child sitting, you will be crushed when you go up."
For the first time, Tang Hongjun joined the show and made a big red face. He stood beside his father-in-law and tried his best to flatter, but the old man was not in his mind. He was all watching the children go, especially after seeing Tang Jinyu a few times, he became proficient and grinned. He praised him as a genius.
Two sisters, Hua Yan and Chen Deyun, also took special care of Tang Jinyu. Although Hua Yan is an only child, she is three years older than Tang Jinyu. So everywhere she tries to be like a big sister. When Tang Jinyu got on and off the excavator, she still He half hugged him down.
Tang Jinyu was a little embarrassed, "Sister, when I grow up, I will come by myself."
Hua Yan watched this little cousin grow up in such a hug since he was a child, and smiled: "You are not big, you are half a head shorter than De Yun!"
Chen Deyun pursed her lips when she heard it. She was one year older than Tang Jinyu. She is already a ten-year-old girl this year. Her cousin is much shorter than her. It seems that some people believe that she has just turned seven.
Tang Jinyu was a little embarrassed. He also wanted to work hard to grow taller. He drank a lot of cow (Milk Nai), but there was no movement.
Tang Hongjun said that he was accumulating energy, which would jump up in two years. In order to prove this, he asked the old classmates of the research institute for several reports to prove it.
After several children played for a while, Mr. Chen asked Tang Hongjun to drive in his car and took it to the mall to buy toys.
Hua Yan bit her ears with Tang Jinyu and told him in a low voice, "Grandpa must have just given out pocket money this month. Let's buy less and leave him some money for cigarettes."
Chen Deyun also came over. She wanted to be quieter, and she raised her brows in a low voice, "Smoking is not good for (身shen)? I heard (奶Nai)(奶Nai) say that you have to supervise grandpa, you can’t let He smokes."
Hua Yan sighed, "He is so old, so let him smoke a little, it's pitiful."
Tang Jinyu felt that both of them were right, and she didn't know who to listen to.
But after entering the mall to buy the toys, Tang Hongjun rushed to pay, but Tang Jinyu let out a sigh of relief.
When the weather was hot, the children couldn't move their feet when they met the ice cream shop. Tang Hongjun took the two little girls to eat. He didn't dare to let the children eat, so he found a reason for Mr. Chen to take him downstairs to buy two balloons.
Tang Jinyu was very obedient and followed her grandfather. In fact, he didn't have such a big demand for ice cream. His favorite was ice-cola.
After buying two balloons, Mr. Chen tied him around his wrist as the child said. The two of them sat on the bench on the first floor of the mall and chatted.
Tang Jinyu moved her wrist and said proudly: "Grandpa, look, my brother tied me on his wrist during the Chinese New Year, so that you can find me if I get lost." Despite this, the kid grabbed Old Man Chen. "Grandpa, you can hold me, don’t lose it."
Old man Chen was amused by him, and nodded: "Don't worry, you can't lose it. Didn't your grandma say when you came, let me find a rope to tie you to him."
The grandparents sat there chatting.
Grandpa Chen occasionally frowned and thought for a while, Tang Jinyu found it strange when he saw it, and asked, "Grandpa, what's the matter with you?"
"Grandpa wants something."
"what is the matter?"
Old Chen frowned. He had been busy with mines in Yunnan Province for the past few years and had been preparing for so many years, but in the end he hesitated. Over the past few years, millions of dollars have been smashed, but nothing has been achieved. I can only say that it is reluctant to maintain expenses. Now the whole company listens to him, but he is not sure of his own idea.
The child asked again. Old Chen laughed and said, "It's nothing, it's just work. Hey, my grandfather is old, and sometimes I get confused easily, and I'm scared thinking about it."
"What is grandpa afraid of?"
"I'm afraid I won't be able to eat."
What the old man said was half-truth and half-truth. The kid on the side thought about it, beckoned the old man to get closer, and said to him in his ear: "Grandpa, don't be afraid, I have money."
Old man Chen deliberately pretended to be surprised, "Really, how much money do we save, Xiaoyu?"
Tang Jinyu stretched out two fingers.
"How much is this?"
The child leaned closer and whispered: "Two hundred thousand--"
Old man Chen was amused, but the next sentence followed by the child made the old man press his heart. The child lay in his ear and said, "Grandpa is not afraid, I will support you."
Mr. Chen was messing around in the business field. He didn't know how many flattering words he heard, but there was never a sentence like the little grandson said today that made him sore and swollen. He rubbed the child's soft hair again and grinned: " Grandpa is not afraid. Grandpa waits to go back and work hard (gans). We don’t need our Xiaoyu to raise, grandpa raises you."
The child shook the old man's hand, and the colored (color) balloon in his hand moved twice as well. He said happily, "When I grow up, I will also work. Grandpa, I can do a lot of things!"
Mr. Chen listened to him, and his mood improved a lot.
On the other side, Grandma Chen was also busy at home.
In the afternoon, the eldest daughter Chen Qiuguo also returned home. She came with her husband. There was such a festive event at home. When she came, she changed into a red (color) floral dress with a smile on her face. meaning.
Grandma Chen asked her two daughters to reschedule the banquet for these two days. Chen Qiuguo took the work to her after listening to her, and said with a smile: "Mom, I'll be here, it's not too much trouble. Son, just tell them the time to face the opponent, and let the little girl rest, she has more important things to do."
Chen Suling said: "I don't have one, sister, I'll go with you, and it's easy to get a handle."
Chen Qiuguo didn't agree, and took the list in her own hands to prevent her from stumbling. "Why don't you? Why don't you have two performances for three days in a row. This is a big event. You have to prepare well."
Grandma Chen also deliberately wanted her grandson to perform a show, but she said: "Two days are too tiring. Just the last day. Just one show."
The old man took the idea, and Chen Suling agreed. She had nothing to do. When the eldest sister was busy, she stayed here to speak with her mother.
Chen Suling asked while pouring the tea, "Mom, where's the second wife? She should be in charge of the banquet, right?"
Old Mrs. Chen sighed, "Don’t mention it, isn’t she the one who took it down? I packed up the tickets at the beginning and said well. We were almost late at noon today. I asked your second brother just now, Wen Qian. Saying that Deqing suddenly had a low-grade fever this morning, your second sister-in-law was so frightened that she took the child to the hospital and didn't care about anything."
Chen Suling curled her eyebrows and said, "Why suddenly became ill, is it serious? I'll go and see.
"It's okay. Wen Qian said that a shot would be better. The doctor let the doctor rest. Let's not quarrel with the child. I will go over with you tomorrow morning." The old lady was also worried about her grandson, but she was still comforting her daughter. "Don't look at Deqing Junior, (body shen) is physically strong and does not get sick all year round, just like when your second brother was a kid, like a monkey, haha."
Chen Suling couldn't help but smile when she thought of her second brother when she was a child.
The old lady pointed to the small coffee table in the room and said with a smile: "Look at this, I remember Xiaoyu is five years old, and she can still hold it to take pictures, so it's as tall as it. Deqing is four years old now, more than this coffee table. It's a bit taller!" Thinking of the past, the old man couldn't help but sigh, "Xiao Yu grew up a little bit by me. For so many years, you and Hong Jun have suffered a lot. Now that you are better, you can rest assured in the future. Have a good life."
Chen Suling nodded, her eyes were a little red, but she was quickly dissipated by the smile at the corner of her mouth. She was really happy today.
Chen Qiuguo worked neatly, and the evening banquet was arranged properly without a trace of error.
She is the eldest sister, who has always been gentle and considerate to the family. Not only did she entertain the guests, she did not forget her sister-in-law Pei Yun, and asked the hotel staff to cook a light meal and porridge suitable for children, and delivered it together.
When Chen Wenqian returned home in the evening, Pei Yun was feeding his son porridge. He looked up and saw him come back and asked, "Are you done? Where's De Yun, didn't you come back?"
Chen Wenqian took a look at his younger son and saw that he had recovered his energy and drank half a bowl of porridge. He was relieved, "Today is over. De Yun stays there with Hua Yan. The eldest sister is coming to live for three days, De Yun. Stay there for these three days, let them and the sisters have fun."
Pei Yun nodded, hesitant to say something, "Mom today..."
Chen Wenqian glanced at her and said with a smile: "Did you say that you ‘run away from the battle’?"
Pei Yun whispered: "I am sick because of Deqing."
"Mom said, let me come back and punish you." Chen Wenqian flicked her forehead, raised an eyebrow and said: "Okay, the punishment is over."
Pei Yun looked up at him, not knowing which sentence to trust him for a while, with doubts on his face.
Chen Wenqian was happy: "You really believe it, when did my mother say a serious thing about you, don't worry, it's okay, the elder sister has already taken over the banquet, and my mom said that you should stay at home with Deqing, and she will be there tomorrow morning. Come and take a look, I'm worried about our little fat guy, isn't it Deqing?"
The four-year-old boy was white and tender. He laughed when he was teased by his father. He was still working hard and said, "Dad, Deqing is not fat!"
Chen Wenqian pinched his belly deliberately, "Then what is this?"
Deqing has a good temper, and he can play with his dad.
Pei Yun thought for a while, but still whispered: "Actually, I told the people on my parents' side that I asked them to help me. Deqing was sick. I was really worried, so I thought they would help me at noon. In case of an emergency, I can rush back in the afternoon. But they told me that Mom would not let them take care of them at noon, and let the younger sister take charge..."
Chen Wenqian rubbed his son's head and glanced at her, "Did they say that the time for noon today was wrong? If it weren't for Mom and the little sister to go by themselves, no one would have notified him."
Pei Yun was taken aback, "No way?"
"Can I lie to you? Don't listen to what your family says next time. Ask yourself more. And... forget it, let's talk about it later. You are tired today. Take your child to rest early."
Pei Yun asked him: "Where are you?"
Chen Wenqian stood up, stretched his waist, and yawned: "When I went to my dad, he said he would ask me to discuss mine matters. The father rarely regained his energy. I will accompany him to make plans."
Pei Yun opened his mouth and wanted to stop a few words, but remembered what her husband had just said, and closed his mouth again. She saw her mother’s family this time and heard something about mines in Yunnan Province. Everyone in her family said that many companies had lost money in the mines over the past few years. The luck was the best but it was flat. Hang, persuade her to let the Chen family withdraw as soon as possible.
Pei Yun wrinkled her brows for a long time and didn't loosen it, she believed in her heart.
