Chapter 12: Zhang Shaocai’s generousness and Yan Yuhuan’s meticulousness (2) ()

After returning home, Han Qing'e had already boiled hot water. Xu Shaojie took a shower. When he came out of the shower, Xu Shaojie heard his sister Xu Lan's exclamation. He walked into the living room and all three bags of luggage were opened. In one bag were all new clothes, pants, and new leather shoes. Xu Shaojie saw his mother Han Qing'e was cleaning. The new clothes were divided into seven sets, totaling seven sets, two sets of mothers, two sets of sisters, two sets of brothers, and one set of his own, three pairs of fur shoes, and the other bag of luggage were all food, sunflower peanuts, milk candy, pastries, etc. Xu Shaojie saw his mother's hands trembling slightly.

Xu Shaojie remembered some days when he was with Yan Yuhuan. Yan Yuhuan asked his family in detail every time, including height, fatness, and thinness. Sometimes, he pointed to someone with similar figures on the street and asked Xu Shaojie. Xu Shaojie never cared about it, but now he knew what the reason was. There was a secret between Xu Shaojie and Yan Yuhuan. It was that after Yan Yuhuan took Xu Shaojie to buy clothes, the two of them had dinner in the private room of the restaurant. Yan Yuhuan

Suddenly he asked Xu Shaojie to hug her. Xu Shaojie hugged Yan Yuhuan in fear. Yan Yuhuan soon kissed her very much. It was Xu Shaojie's first kiss, which made Xu Shaojie's blood boil. He felt that Yan Yuhuan's tongue was so soft and there was a fragrance in his mouth. Xu Shaojie almost couldn't control it. When the two separated, Xu Shaojie saw Yan Yuhuan's crystal tears falling from his eyes. Yan Yuhuan wiped away his tears and said that Xu Shaojie would always be her closest brother.

All the luggage in the package must have been prepared by Yan Yuhuan.

"Shaojie, you brought so many things home, you have been worrying. Where did you get so much money? Don't do anything bad. The family is not short of money."

"Mom, there's nothing wrong. I'll do things with Brother Zhang. I don't have any rest during holidays. Brother Zhang admires me very much. Our relationship is the same as my brothers. By the way, here is 2,000 yuan, you can take it."

Xu Shaojie did not tell the truth. He was enough to bear the kindness between Zhang Shaocai and Yan Yuhuan. He would definitely repay this love, and there was no need to bear it with his family.

Xu Lan tried new clothes, which fit very well. These new clothes were all popular in provincial capitals. There were not yet in the small county town, and the fur shoes were also very suitable. Xu Shaojie was secretly moved, what is true love and what is carefulness? No matter what kind of interest disputes between the two parties, if they can do this, what else can they say.

"Shaojie, there is another thing. Your brother Yijie is about to be released from prison. In these two days, I will ask about the specific time tomorrow. The money you sent back last time was used on Yijie. He performed well and was reduced to three years in prison. I have asked clearly the time. You go and pick Yijie up and go home."

When Xu Shaojie heard these words, he didn't say anything for a long time. He always thought that Xu Yijie would not be released from prison for more than a year, but he did not expect that Xu Yijie would be able to go home soon.

Xu Shaojie came to his father's tomb and couldn't get up after kneeling.

"Dad, I've come to see you. I haven't come for half a year. You must forgive me. I have always done things according to your instructions. Dad, don't worry, I will be a good person and do things well. You must watch me make a name for myself."

Han Qing'e and Xu Lan had already cried to tears. After a long time, Xu Shaojie wiped away his tears and discussed with his mother about erecting a monument for his father. Now, erecting a monument costs 600 to 700 yuan. For ordinary families, it is undoubtedly a large expense, but Xu Shaojie already has this ability. Han Qing'e has this idea and her family has money.

The family quickly found the master who was shaping the tombstone, and the husband also found it. After returning home, the husband started writing the epitaph in front of Xu Shaojie and others. At the same time, he looked at the days. Xu Shaojie gave the master a pack of cigarettes from Hongtashan. The husband carefully kept it and was very motivated to do things. When he wrote about his father's relatives, Xu Shaojie suddenly thought of something.

"Mom, Zhang Shaocai and Yan Yuhuan take great care of me. One is my brother and the other is my sister. I thought about engraving their names into the family. I have thought about it. Even if it is an adopted son and an adopted daughter, I just asked the gentleman. There is no problem. Now I will call them and see what their opinions are."

Han Qing'e nodded, Xu Shaojie immediately went out and arrived at the post office.

The phone number in the provincial capital was quickly connected, and the sound was clear and coincidental. Zhang Shaocai and Yan Yuhuan were both there. After Xu Shaojie thought about it, he said his thoughts. Xu Shaojie heard Yan Yuhuan's low sobs. You know, it is not an ordinary relationship to write it into the names of his relatives.

"Brother, thank you, honestly, Dad's monument erecting time, you must tell me that no matter how busy I am, I will participate. Sister Yan and I come here. Let's burn a few incense sticks and burn some money. When Dad was alive, Sister Yan and I were unable to fulfill their filial piety. The old man went to heaven and we were here to fulfill our filial piety."

The time for erecting the monument is on the 14th day of the first lunar month, and there is still one month left.

Xu Shaojie went to Deyang City to pick up Xu Yijie. When the two met, they hugged each other tightly. Xu Yijie looked much older. Xu Shaojie saw white hair. Xu Yijie was only 23 years old. When he returned home, Xu Yijie immediately went to his father's cemetery and knelt for more than an hour. Xu Shaojie also knelt with him. The two brothers said nothing, just like when his father was buried.

Xu Yijie was much silent. When Xu Shaojie took out the Zhonghua cigarette, Xu Yijie smoked silently without any excitement. Xu Shaojie knew that Xu Yijie had a deep knot and had to find a way to get rid of it.

During the Spring Festival, it was still the same. Xu Shaojie was admitted to university. When relatives walked around, they praised Xu Shaojie. Xu Yijie had been staying at home and never went anywhere. Xu Shaojie burned all the clothes he brought back from the prison. This thing was unlucky. Han Qing'e took Xu Yijie and bought several new sets of clothes. Xu Yijie looked at his family with soft eyes, expressing his inner feelings, but when he looked at others, there was no emotional color at all. Xu Shaojie was secretly anxious. He knew that his brother Xu Yijie must not just stay at home like this, otherwise, sooner or later, something happened and he had to go out. Xu Shaojie thought of Zhang Shaocai and Yan Yuhuan, but Xu Shaojie felt a little embarrassed to speak for such a thing.

Xu Shaojie rarely eats outside. When greeting New Year, he mostly goes home after going to visit the countryside. Xu Shaojie did not go, but his mother Han Qing'e took Xu Lan. The two brothers eat at home. During the Chinese New Year, there is more leftovers and hot. As long as the two brothers have time, they go to the place where tombstones are drawn to see the progress. Xu Yijie goes there more times, and there is nothing to do, and most of the time he watches.

His mother, Han Qing'e, is still very enthusiastic and kind. Although she has a bad temper, relatives come to her home to pay New Year's greetings. Han Qing'e is warmly welcomed. Those who come to pay New Year's greetings must have a good meal. Xu Shaojie accompanied him to drink and eat, but Xu Yijie did not accompany him at all. He went out during the meal, and no one said anything.
