Chapter 159: The Zhang Family (1)
Zhang Dazhuang's father Zhang Shouyi is an authentic fellow from Northeast China. He was strong when he was young and was a good player in the production team. He was usually kind, but he was extremely enthusiastic despite his height and big horses. Unfortunately, he was uremia when he was almost forty years old. The strong and capable man suddenly collapsed on the kang.
Zhang Dazhuang's family was always good when he was a child, but since his father suffered from uremia, the whole family had spent all his savings, and the family's conditions were all gone. For so many years, you have been relying on his mother Xu Ying to support the family alone. Fortunately, Zhang Dazhuang can make money. In addition to subsidizing the family, he can also repay some foreign debts owed in the past. What makes the family happy is that Zhang Dazhuang's sister Zhang Chuchu has excellent academic performance and is very hopeful to be admitted to the top university in China. Her outstanding sister made the family see hope.
With hope, even if he is tired of living, he is motivated to grit his teeth and persevere. But what makes the family worried is that Zhang Dazhuang's father Zhang Shouyi's illness is getting worse and worse. Two years ago, the doctor said that Zhang Shouyi was afraid that he could not survive the winter, but with Xu Ying's care and the efforts of the family, Zhang Shouyi survived.
Two years ago, Lin Kun was still in the military region in Mobei. He was always doing tasks outside and had no contact with his hometown. In addition, he performed confidential tasks in the army, so he was not allowed to have contact with the outside world at all, so he didn't know the difficulties of Zhang Dazhuang's family. It was not until he met Zhang Dazhuang at the farmers' market some time ago that two childhood friends who had been missing for many years did not contact him again. But until this time, Lin Kun didn't know how difficult the conditions of Zhang Dazhuang's family were.
Zhang Dazhuang's mother Xu Ying is a country woman in her fifties but looks more like a sixty-year-old woman. Her overloaded farm work and family burdens have bent her waist, dyeing her originally black hair white. Her hands are covered with calluses, but she has cooked a good dish.
Zhang Dazhuang took his parents to the city, just saying that he wanted the old man to come and live for a while. After all, his father's health was getting worse day by day. While he could still move around, he hoped that he could go to the outside world to see. Zhang Dazhuang told his family that he met Lin Kun, but he did not tell his parents that Lin Kun is now "developed".
Xu Ying was busy in the narrow kitchen, with a happy smile on her face. She looked at Lin Kun and regarded Lin Kun as half a son in her heart. There was no news about Lin Kun for so many years. She had always been worried about it. Now she could see the half son immediately. She couldn't say that she was so happy. After working hard for half an afternoon, she made eight dishes that Lin Kun loved when she was a child.
Zhang Dazhuang's sister Zhang Chuchu is also busy in the kitchen. The little girl is just eighteen years old today and will take college entrance exams next year. This time she came to the city to take a special leave. Two days and weekends included one day off. She can stay in Zhonggang City for two and a half days. The little girl came here just to meet Lin Kun. In Xu Ying and Zhang Shouyi's eyes, Lin Kun is half a son, but in Zhang Chuchu's eyes, she is the whole brother. As soon as she remembers when she was a child, Zhang Chuchu clearly remembers that no matter what kind of grievances she and her brother Zhang Dazhuang were outside, Brother Lin Kun will help to stand up. I remember that once a senior boy harassed him, Lin Kun kept hitting the boy on the kang at home, and even the boy's unreasonable parents beat him together. Then again, Lin Kun's former reputation in the village was really not a big deal.
At this time, in Zhang Dazhuang's narrow basement home, in addition to Zhang Dazhuang's family, there was another person. Lin Kun's former first love girlfriend Zhou Xiaoya. Zhou Xiaoya took the initiative to call Zhang Dazhuang to find out that Lin Kun was coming. When he was in junior high school, Zhou Xiaoya was in love with Lin Kun and was very familiar with Zhang Dazhuang's family. Zhang Dazhuang's parents had a good impression of Zhou Xiaoya. Zhou Xiaoya was very polite and beautiful at the time, and was very fond of the elders, but Zhang Chuchu had a bad impression of her. No, because of anything else, just because of Lin Kun's year of junior high school, Zhou Xiaoya broke up with Lin Kun ruthlessly. In that hot and depressing summer, Zhang Chuchu had seen Lin Kun secretly crying several times.
Although Zhou Xiaoya is also a child from the countryside, she has been spoiled at home since she was a child and has almost never been in the kitchen. At this time, she just sat on the simple sofa and chatted with Zhang Dazhuang's father Zhang Shouyi.
Zhou Xiaoya's mouth was very sweet, and she called out to Uncle Shouyi. She didn't know the specific reason why Lin Kun broke up with Zhou Xiaoya. Zhang Shouyi and his wife didn't know the secret of the children. Zhang Shouyi looked at Zhou Xiaoya who became more and more beautiful and sighed: It's a pity for Xiaoya and Kunzi to break up with you!
Zhou Xiaoya lowered her head slightly and her cheeks turned red, but she felt happy. If she was given another chance to choose, she would definitely choose to stay with Lin Kun. She broke up with Lin Kun because of reality. After many years, she turned around and found that Lin Kun really has the ability to deal with the trivial matter of reality. Among the more than 60 students in the class, Lin Kun is undoubtedly the most outstanding person now.
Zhou Xiaoya never denies that she is a realistic woman, and she has grown up, but she really likes Lin Kun in her heart, likes the domineering man, likes him who is outstanding now. If she has another chance, she sincerely hopes to be able to return with Lin Kun, even if he is married now.
Sometimes when thinking of Lin Kun, Zhou Xiaoya feels in a daze because she can't tell whether she likes Lin Kun or his current achievements, or both. But in other words, a man who is both domineering, handsome and accomplished, would be loved by any woman.
The brand new BMW x6 was parked directly in front of the old building in the basement rented by Zhang Dazhuang. In addition to the local households who have never been able to turn over in their entire lives, there are some foreigners who rented foreigners. Usually, there are few such luxury cars parked here, which attracted a lot of attention for a while.
Lin Kun got out of the car, carrying the fruits bought from the fruit shop outside. Zhang Xiaoya and Lu Ting also got out of the car and carried some fruits. This was the first time they came to Zhang Dazhuang's house. Lin Kun couldn't touch the door, so he took out his cell phone and called Zhang Dazhuang. Not long after, Zhang Dazhuang and He Cuihua came out, and Zhang Chuchu and Zhou Xiaoya came out together. After seeing Zhou Xiaoya, Lin Kun was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and joked with several people: This welcoming ceremony is a bit too grand!
Brother Lin Kun! Zhang Chuchu called sweetly and threw herself into Lin Kun's arms. She was eighteen years old, but she was still as cute as an eight-year-old girl in front of Lin Kun.
