Chapter 35 Twenty-eight, Chen Xiang loves home

Chen Xiang really loves her current home.She loves everything from the drum-holding stone at the gate to the screen wall, promenade, rockery, old begonia, goldfish pond, and chrysanthemum garden inside the gate, and the big chicken coop she built in the small backyard is her favorite.After Mei gave birth to her first daughter, Hongyue, Chen Xiang took Hongyue to live in a small room on the west side of the north house, separated from the bedroom of the book owner and Mei by a large living room and a large study.The small room is quiet and cool, and Chen Xiang hums and jokes to coax the children every day.A temporary cleaner was hired at home, so Chen Xiang could concentrate on taking care of the children.Hongjun is studying at Capital University, and he goes home on weekends and lives in the Westinghouse guest room.He has grown into a handsome young man. He looks like the owner of the book, but he doesn't know who he is.

Do you say that I look like my father?" Chen Xiang suspected that the child lacked love and was sensitive when he was a child, for fear that he was not his own. Chen Xiang took extra care of Hong Jun. As soon as he came home, Chen Xiang would make good food for him. The boy is growing up.She felt a little bit wrong for the child.Chen Xiang felt that Hongjun was obviously the only biological son of the book owner, but the book owner cared much less about him than Hongnu.Even if Hong Nu is the orphan of Ji Shukai, she should be hurt, but she can't put her own son aside.Besides, the child's mother is divorced again, even if Mei treats him well, he still needs father's love here.But the father of the book owner is too strict, as if a son is not worthy of being a son if he can't lead soldiers to fight.But what year is this? Didn’t your older generation conquer the country just to live a better life for their juniors? Why are you so demanding on your children? Didn’t he come to Beijing just to get closer to his father? Isn’t it more painful to guard his own mother? Ji Shukai only has one daughter, and the book style does not marry. Isn’t Hong Jun the only root of the successor family now? When I say this, they have to say that I am old-fashioned and patriarchal, but Is the boy the step-family? The daughter is going to marry anyway.Having said that, Chen Xiang was still anxious when she saw Hongjun's unhurried look: Why does this child look like Shuang? He has no self-motivated at all. A little step-family style.Step-family members are prominent wherever they go, just the few I have seen, none of them look like ordinary people.But this child is so sloppy that he can't get on the stage! Chen Xiang asked: "Mr. Hong, what do you want to do when you grow up?" Mr. Hong said, "I, be an ordinary person." He thought for a while, and then said : "Aunt Chen, let me tell you one thing in my heart, please don't tell my father. I think my father only lived for my uncle all his life. If it wasn't for my uncle, he wouldn't be with my mother." Marriage, this is what my mother told me, without my mother, of course I would not have me. Later, if it was not because of my aunt, he would not have divorced my mother, this is what my mother told me. So the red girl competes at home We are all important, she is my uncle's daughter. The red girl can do whatever she wants, she can go to a foreign country if she wants to, but I can't go. Of course she will do everything hard, everyone looks at her, she represents my uncle in everything she does , even represents our step-family, she is the center of the world. Who do I represent? My father at most? , my grandparents, my second uncle and my father, all represent my uncle. They don’t even think about it carefully, and they will understand after thinking about it. Alas, maybe they have understood it a long time ago and feel honored. I don’t think it has anything to do with me. If you want to have a relationship with your uncle, the more you feel that you are nothing." Chen Xiang quickly stopped him and said, "My child, you can't think like that, and you can't tell others like that. If you think like that, your father has heard a lot Sad! The red girl is your sister after all, you are all a family, how can you say that she represents your family, but you do not represent your family? I dare say your father regards you as important as her, but you are a boy , I’m a little stricter on you, and you don’t live up to expectations. If your academic performance is better, no matter where you are, everyone will value you. Why can’t you show it to your father? Show it to those people? When I was in Dashima, people said that when your grandmother was alive, it was your father who loved her the most. She said that your father is the successor to the family. You see, your father is a man who keeps quiet and can pretend to be big things in his heart. How do you Can't you imitate him? You are his son, not for your uncle but for your father. Since you have seen that they are all living for your uncle, you should act like you live for your father and make him happy Study hard." What Chen Xiang said stunned Hong Jun, he didn't expect Aunt Chen to say so much truth.He nodded, as if he had understood something new, but after thinking about it, he still didn't understand.He is determined to do what his father likes, and studies hard, but what if his father is happy after he has learned? People still say that he is worthy of being his uncle's nephew! He is an uncle again! It's strange how this kid thinks so much and is so evil!

The capital is lively, with many markets and theaters.As soon as Hongjun came home, Chen Xiang took him and Xiao Hongyue to listen to an opera and eat snacks, and Chen Xiang treated them.She was willing to spend her money on children and actors.Hongjun likes Hongyue and loves to hug her.He often helps Chen Xiang hold the child, and also learns to coax the child by singing. One day after Tianmei came home, she came to Chen Xiang's room, closed the door, and said solemnly, "Sister Chen Xiang, I have to tell you something." Mei said: "It's starting to clean up the hall again. This time, even you non-members who work in the house of the head church official will be reviewed together." Chen Xiang hurriedly shouted: "Oh my god, I Why did you forget to join the congregation?!" Mei said, "Sister, don't worry, wait until I finish speaking." Mei talked to Chen Xiang for a long time, and Chen Xiang understood that it turned out that the government found out that she had been a The actor, who is not a member of the church, thinks that she should not occupy such a good public position, and that such an important job should be undertaken by a more trustworthy colleague in the church, so she decides to persuade Chen Xiang to resign.Chen Xiang burst into tears after hearing this, and said: "Where am I going? I love this family and the children so much that I didn't even say who I am... I thought that working so hard meant I would join the reunification, but I forgot to apply for it after a long time. Enrolled in the hall! In the end, it’s nothing if I didn’t enter the hall! I’ve been an actor for only two days, and it’s become a matter of history. After working here for so long, I suddenly said that I’m not suitable. Work." Mei said: "Who says it's not? We all know that you are part of our family and we cannot do without you, but now the church is going to lay off staff, and all serving staff who have not joined the church will have to join the church. Yes, or you have to resign, because the government has limited staff and cannot allow all the people to enjoy the cadre treatment in the church. The government also emphasizes the security work in the church and the safety of the head, so they let the head waiters who are not members of the church leave. "Chen Xiang said: "Is it okay if I apply to join the church now? As long as I don't leave here." Transfer back. But this is also a way, you go to a general unit first, wait for the church to approve your application to join the church, join the church, and then you come back, we will definitely find a way to transfer you back." The two said it is good.Chen Xiang secretly wiped away tears and waited for Mei to bring back new news.The next day, Mei came back with new news, saying that people from the government said, why did Chen Xiangzao come here? Now that the staff is about to be laid off, he just thought of joining the church. Such people have impure motives! The government suggested giving Chen Xiang retains her public office, but she has to return to her hometown to work as a worker, completely ignoring the issue of her joining the church.When Chen Xiang heard this, she said, "Are there any cripples or cooks looking for wives around here? I would rather get married here than go back to my hometown. I can come back to see the children often if I am closer to you. "Mei couldn't laugh or cry, and persuaded: "There is no unparalleled road, I will find a way." After a day, Mei came back and said: "I have explained to the people in the government that you can resign and not occupy the quota in the organization." , our family pays your salary. I assure the government that you are absolutely trustworthy and will not endanger the safety of the chief. As long as you trust us and like this place, you don’t need to go back to your hometown or join the church, this is you You will be my eldest sister, and when you get married in the future, we will be your natal family. But there is one thing, you will lose your official position, and it will be difficult for you to join the church in the future." Chen Xiang smiled busyly when she heard that Said: "Hey, why am I really anxious to join the church? Public office doesn't matter to me. The important thing is that I love this family. As long as I am with the children and with you, I can do anything."

Later, Mei often joked with Chen Xiang that she was in a hurry to get married, and she really cared about people who persuaded her to find a partner, saying that she is so upright and kind, and her lameness is a trivial matter, and it will be too late if she doesn’t marry .Sometimes she lay on the bed at night and thought, why doesn't she need a man? What's the matter with sleeping with a man? But after thinking about it, she hugged Little Hongyue and fell asleep very contentedly.
