MTL - 70s: Raising a Baby-Chapter 99
Chapter 99
Ever since they found out that Young Master Yuan is going to go to college, the three children have been particularly attached to Young Master Yuan these days, and they will follow him wherever Young Master Yuan goes.
Yuan Shaochen didn't stop them either. Wherever they went, they cherished the last few days.
Others probably know it too. Usually, the three children follow Yuan Shaochen's ass, and some people joke that they are "followers", but now they just laugh and rub their hair.
Everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding not to mention that Young Master Yuan was leaving. He usually behaved as usual, but it was not known how Young Minister Yuan was in private.
He was also quietly relieved, he was not used to crying with people, and even if it was really uncomfortable, he would only show it when no one was there.
To say that the most unhappy young minister Yuan is neither Guan Peng nor Zhang Yuan, but Ding Yu, he knew that the young minister Yuan would be away for two years, a big man, his eyes were red on the spot.
Ding Yu was sent to serve as a security guard next to Young Master Yuan not long after he arrived. The skills he has learned over the years are taught to him by Young Minister Yuan. For him, Young Minister Yuan is also a teacher and a friend.
"Don't be uncomfortable, the team leader will be back after two years." The people around him patted Ding Yu's shoulder.
But they also know how powerful the former junior minister is. Now that he goes to the military academy to study for two years, there is little chance of coming back.
"Take care of yourself, don't forget me, brother." Guan Peng also slapped Yuan Shaochen's chest and laughed.
Yuan Shaochen returned to him. The two of them just looked at each other and didn't say much. The two of them have been partners for so many years.
When the former young minister was the company commander, Guan Peng was already by his side, and the relationship between the two was no different from that of a real brother.
"Don't worry, no one will forget you if you forget."
Yuan Shaochen will be leaving the day after tomorrow, and he specially set aside a day to spend with Ye Jinzhi and a few children. After leaving, at least he won't have such free time for a long time.
Ye Jinzhi has washed out all the photos he had taken in the past few days, and asked Yuan Shaochen to bring a few with him.
On the last day, Yuan Shaochen did not say that he would take a few children to play outside. Even if he did, the children would not have a good time when they thought that their father would be leaving tomorrow, but instead added a bit of sadness.
Simply taking advantage of the last day, Yuan Shaochen brought his three children to play at home.
"If you want to talk to Dad, write it on a small note, and Dad can see it when Dad comes back."
Yuan Shaochen gave each of them a glass jar, and also went to many shopping malls, and finally bought this color drawing in a very partial bookstore.
These days, whenever he is free, he cuts the colored paper into small squares of the same size.
The three children have been very silent these days, especially today, there is no smile at all, and the little mouths are tightly pursed.
"When Ah Zhao's summer vacation is over, let mom take you to see dad, okay?"
This was something that Ye Jinzhi had discussed with him before. He guessed that the first few days should not be very busy, and that Ah Zhao would be on vacation in more than half a month, so he should come to travel.
The three children finally reacted a little when they heard this, their eyes slowly widened and their pupils glowed.
"Really?" Some couldn't believe it, and they stared at the young minister Dao Yuan's eyes, for fear that their father was just coaxing them.
"Of course, it doesn't count when parents talk." He and Zhi have no experience in educating children, and the only thing they can do is to be honest with each other.
Don't deceive them at will because they are just children, they are working hard to fulfill their commitment to the three children every time, and the trust between parents and children is mutual.
"Yeah." The three children nodded vigorously, and their mood was obviously much better.
I talked a lot to the Yuan Shaochen, and in the end, don't forget them.
"Dad will bring your photos and look at them every night." Yuan Shaochen promised.
The three children nodded with satisfaction. After they were done, it was the turn of the Yuan Shaochen to start.
"Dad is not at home, you have to do more for your mother and take care of your younger brother. Don't make your mother too tired." Yuan Shaochen worried that Ye Jinzhi would have a hard time after he left.
When he was at home, although he left early and returned late, he did most of the housework as long as he had time, and he was reluctant to let Ye Jinzhi touch it.
Now that he is leaving, Ye Jin can only rely on Ye Jin for many things at home, not to mention that Ye Jinzhi can't do many housework at all.
In the past, although he was not always by her side, he was taken care of in his daily life. Never let her do it herself.
"Don't worry Dad, we will take good care of Mommy." The three children were very satisfied that Dad treated them as adults, and nodded in agreement without any hesitation.
Yuan Shaochen did not suspect that they were just talking. Now the three children will take the initiative to help them with a lot of housework.
At the beginning, they needed him and him to clean up their room, now they don't need them anymore, they will clean up by themselves on weekends, and it's still very clean.
Even under Yuan Shaochen's intentional or unintentional demonstration, the three children have already washed some of their own underwear and socks.
"You should practice one of these characters every day." During the time of speaking, Yuan Shaochen had already written many calligraphy with calligraphy, and these were all homework for the three children.
"So many?" The three children opened their mouths wide, and the calligraphy seemed to have a thick stack.
The feeling of being about to parting disappeared instantly, and now they wished that the young minister Yuan would leave soon, so many calligraphy, how long did they have to write, and the whole person was desperate.
"Xiaoye, are you at home?" Liu Guihua shouted at the door.
"At home, what's the matter with my aunt?" Ye Jinzhi hurried out and opened the door to signal her to come in.
Liu Guihua waved her hand, "I'm just here to tell you, stop cooking at noon and eat at my house."
Yuan Shaochen is about to leave. They must not have a good meal to chat and reminisce about the past. After this farewell, they really don’t know when they will see each other again.
"Okay, we'll come later." Ye Jinzhi didn't refuse, knowing that this was their intention, it would be bad to refuse.
"Okay, okay, don't worry, yes. I'll let Yangyang pick you up if you do well." Liu Guihua knew that Young Master Yuan had left, and she would definitely help him pack up, signaling her not to worry.
Ye Jinzhi sent Liu Guihua away and went back. She was helping Yuan Shaochen to sew a wallet, which was just big enough for a few photos.
Aunt Liu's loud voice was heard by the young minister Yuan and the others upstairs, and they all went downstairs at this moment.
"Yeah, ah." Ayan's hands messed up on Yuan Shaochen's face, scratching his hair and pinching his face.
Small people naturally also have small advantages. Ayan doesn't know why parting is at all, and he doesn't know that his father is going to leave. He is having a good time at the moment.
"This is?" Yuan Shaochen saw what was in Ye Jinzhi's hand.
"The wallet is for you." Ye Jinzhi just closed the needle and handed the wallet to Yuan Shaochen.
Yuan Shaochen of course knew that she gave it to him, but he just didn't know what she was doing.
"Hey, look, I'll help you put the photos in it so that you don't lose it." Ye Jinzhi knew that he probably lived in a collective dormitory when he went, and there was no place to put things, just a bigger place.
"Mom, I want it too." Ah Hao looked at his father's wallet, and he wanted it too.
Ye Jinzhi didn't have time to do it at the moment, so he discussed with him: "Will my mother give it to you the day after tomorrow?"
"Okay." Hao naturally has no problem, as long as his mother promises to help him.
"Aunt Liu just came to ask us to go to their house for dinner." Ye Jinzhi remembered again.
Yuan Shaochen nodded, "I heard it too."
"Young minister, when you get there, you must learn from your stinky temper and don't keep a straight face all day." Wang Jianguo took a sip of wine and persuaded him.
The first time he saw him, he felt that he had a momentum, and he believed in him inexplicably.
Now that I suddenly want to go so far, I feel a little reluctant to give up.
Yuan Shaochen did not refute, knowing that he was thinking of himself.
"I know, you should also take good care of your body, don't always drink and smoke, it's not good for your health."
Wang Jianguo is an old smoker. He feels uncomfortable if he doesn't smoke for a day. Aunt Liu doesn't know how many times he persuaded him. He also sincerely said that he would change, but he couldn't.
"Brother Young Minister, is the military academy fun?" Wang Yang and his brothers were very curious about the military academy, especially Wang Yang. Although he no longer shouted that he wanted to join the army, he still wanted to join the army, because sooner or later.
Ye Jinzhi has also popularized the military academy with them. He knows that although the college entrance examination is not allowed now, if you join the army, as long as you perform well, you will still have the opportunity to study in the military academy.
"You young minister haven't even gone yet, how do you know what the military principal is like?" Liu Guihua scolded.
Wang Yang didn't care at all, Yuan Shaochen was his idol since he was a child, and he always inspired himself to surpass him one day.
"If you want to know so much, I will write to you at that time, but you must study hard."
Now is 1976, and next year is 1977. If you remember history correctly, the college entrance examination will resume next year.
"I will, I promised Sister Jin." Ever since Wang Yang was persuaded by Ye Jinzhi, he admired Ye Jinzhi for knowing so much, and changed his name to not call her sister-in-law. He felt that calling her sister was more intimate, and it seemed that they were related. better.
After eating a lunch for two full hours, Ayan couldn't hold back his sleep.
"Auntie, I'll take the young minister back first."
Liu Guihua was a little embarrassed, she was obviously calling for someone to come for dinner, but she didn't expect that a meal would look like this.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoye, this dead old man likes to drink alcohol." Liu Guihua said so, but she still carefully helped Wang Jianguo to the room.
"Yangyang, give your mother a hand." Chief Wang is still very heavy, and Aunt Liu almost fell out with so much strength.
"It's okay, it's okay, Aunt Liu, we'll go first." Ye Jinzhi knew that Chief Wang was reluctant to leave Young Minister Yuan.
As soon as he went out, Ye Jinzhi let go of the hand that had been supporting Young Master Yuan.
"Stop acting."
Ye Jinzhi had known Yuan Shaochen for so long, how could he possibly get drunk with just a few glasses of wine.
The original young minister stopped pretending as soon as he came out. Just now, his eyes were hazy and he walked crookedly. Now his eyes are clear and clear, it is completely impossible to see that he has just drunk.
Anyone who saw the scene just now would not believe that Young Master Yuan was not drunk.
The three children were naturally stunned. They were afraid that their father would fall, but now his father has returned to normal.
"Let's go." Yuan Shaochen couldn't help laughing when he saw the cute faces of the three children.
But they didn't rest for too long. Everyone knew that Young Master Yuan would be leaving tomorrow, and people kept coming to the house to say goodbye to Young Master Yuan today.
"Captain, I'll take you to the train station tomorrow." Ding Yu asked.
Yuan Shaochen shook his head, "No need, someone will pick us up."
After he finished speaking, he pulled the man to his side again, reached out and touched him up and down, pinching his arms, "A lot stronger."
The former major still vaguely remembered the first time he saw him. At that time, he was still like a little bean sprout. Yuan Shaochen felt that the gun might be heavier than him.
After a few years, he is completely different from before. If Young Master Yuan hadn't seen him change little by little, he might not have believed it.
"Do well, wait until I get back to marry you a daughter-in-law."
Ding Yu is very similar to "Yuan Shaochen", both are orphans, but Ding Yu had grandparents when he was young. The year he first came, his grandparents left, so he was left alone in the army.
When he received this news, when Yuan Shaochen found him, he was still squatting in the corner and shedding tears silently.
It was also from that time, when Yuan Shaochen asked him to follow him, and Ding Yu became his security guard, which has not changed for so many years.
"Captain, are you coming back?" Zhang Yuanchi asked in a sullen voice.
Yuan Shaochen gave him a look, he was not formal at all, he was a fool.
"Don't make trouble again when I'm not here. Give me good training. If you really have the energy, just go for a few laps." Yuan Shaochen warned him.
Zhang Yuan nodded indifferently, "If you encounter anything there, report my name." He looked like he was going to cover him.
There is an endless stream of people coming and going. Young Master Yuan said before that he would spend time with his children, but now he has no time.
When everyone is done leaving and it gets dark, the house will be completely clean.
I don’t know if night will amplify people’s emotions. Originally, the three children’s emotions were much better during the day, but now they are starting to feel low again.
At night, he had to stick to the Yuan Shaochen when he went to bed, and said he had to tell his parents.
But how could Yuan Shaochen agree? It's the last night, he wants to have a good time with him, and he doesn't know when the next time will be.
Although he rejected the idea of them sleeping together, in order to make up for them, Young Master Yuan came to tell stories to the three children tonight and put them to sleep.
"That's it, that's it." A drop of sweat fell from the man's angular chin, and only Ye Jinzhi was in the eyes of the former young minister.
Ye Jinzhi also hugged him tightly, and the two seemed to be eating each other.
"I love you." Afterwards, Yuan Shaochen attached himself to the corner of the woman's reddish eyes and gave a kiss, his movements were careful and gentle, as if the person in front of him was a fragile porcelain doll.
