Chapter 160 Returning home in fine clothes, causing a sensation in the whole Chengjiawan (please book full version)
The train ticket was the day before yesterday on the first day of the Lunar New Year. My father-in-law asked my uncle to bring it back from outside. It was a hard sleeper!
The departure time is 4:30 pm!
When Cheng Xuemin was put on the train in a large package, he found that it was the train he came from northern Shaanxi.
Basically, after entering Yanjing Station from northern Shaanxi, I took a whole hour off and drove back.
On the afternoon of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, after more than forty hours of hard work, Cheng Xuemin finally got off the bus into their county's long-distance bus station!
“Xuemin, Xuemin, over here!”
Immediately, he heard his father Cheng Youben's shout. Cheng Xuemin looked over and saw his father, Cheng Fu, standing guard in front of a bicycle, greeting him.
"Dad! Didn't I tell you not to come and pick me up?! Why did you come here anyway?"
Cheng Xuemin smiled bitterly. On the New Year's Eve, he told his father on the phone that he had a train ticket to leave on the third day of the Lunar New Year and expected to arrive home on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.
On the phone, Father Cheng nodded happily and said he would come to the county to pick him up.
But because it was difficult to estimate when the fifth day of the Lunar New Year would arrive, Cheng Xuemin insisted not to let his father come to pick him up.
Better now!
Father Cheng, who was as stubborn as a donkey, showed up at the county bus station regardless of rain or shine, and was greeting this big boy like him.
"Well, I have nothing to do at home. I just happened to borrow the team's bicycle and take you back!"
Father Cheng looked at his big boy with a naive face. He hadn't seen him for more than three months. Why did he think that his big boy was so white and fat?
"Dad, have you been waiting for a long time?"
Cheng Xuemin asked with an uncomfortable expression, "Bao Buqi came here early in the morning to wait!"
"Well, I didn't wait long, just... it arrived at eight o'clock in the morning! Well, I asked Uncle Ni to check, and the train from Yanjing to our place arrived at ten o'clock!"
Cheng's father waved his hand again and said, seeing Cheng Xuemin had so many things, he said stupidly: "I'm just coming back. I'm not visiting relatives. Why bother taking so many things with me? How should I bring them back?"
"The train to the city is at ten o'clock, and I have to transfer to a bus!" Cheng Xuemin rolled his eyes. If he had known that his uncle was so unreliable, he would have simply told him the train schedule and let him eat. It’s not too late to come back to the county after lunch.
Seeing the big and small bags in his hand again, Cheng Xuemin was also very miserable. The main reason was that he could just come here. What if he came over on a bicycle?
Originally, Cheng Xuemin’s plan was to find a tractor that went to their commune and spend some money on the way back.
Now that I have a bicycle, it has become a drag.
"My parents bought these for you, why don't I want to bring something like this?!"
Cheng Xuemin also told his father bitterly: "My family bought these things years ago, and we were supposed to bring them back years ago!"
I bought a lot of New Year's goods, such as new clothes and shoes, which I should wear out on the first day of the new year and go to the homes of relatives and friends to pay New Year's greetings in a high-spirited manner.
But who knew that Cheng Xuemin was left in Yanjing for a while and did not bring these new year's goods back before the year.
It's fine now, it's all for nothing!
With his parents' temperament, he would definitely be reluctant to wear it again this year, and would definitely save it for next year's New Year.
Anyway, the new clothes and shoes of this era are not outdated at all.
"Yes! Didn't you originally say that you came back to celebrate the New Year a year ago? Why did it suddenly change? You didn't say anything in the letter?"
"And those books sent back by my daughter, are they really all written and published by you?"
"But when your mother showed it to the people in the brigade, they didn't believe it at all!"
Father Cheng was thinking about how to tie the big and small bags to the bicycle while asking the questions they had always wanted to ask.
I sent back three or four books one after another, and some said which of the above articles was written by this grown-up boy!
But there is no name of his eldest son Cheng Xuemin on it, and his aunt would not be believed even if she showed it off to the brigade!
There are also many sarcastic people!
Anyway, I have everything I can say, but I don’t believe that the articles in those books were written by his grown-up son, and I don’t believe that a city girl who was admitted to Yanda University would really marry their farmer son Cheng Youben. .
Anyway, I just don’t believe it!
It’s okay to make them believe it. Only if Cheng Xuemin, the eldest son of his family, and the college student’s aunt who chased him to the city are brought back to their Chengjiawan for the New Year this year will they believe it.
But my youngest daughter is already six months pregnant. How can I let her come back to celebrate the New Year after all the hard work, just to prove it to the women in the brigade?
No offense!
Therefore, the daughter of the Feng family has really become the daughter-in-law of their old Cheng family. Father Cheng and mother Cheng believe it!
He might have been doubtful before, but now that he saw that his tall and fair boy looked just like a city boy, Father Cheng really believed him.
But to say that those manuscripts were written by his grown-up son would be a bit exaggerated, right?
When did such a big boy like him become so outstanding and arrogant that Wen Quxing served him?
Why didn’t he, the father-in-law, notice it at all? ?
"I was delayed due to some matters a few years ago, so I decided to spend the Chinese New Year with my young parents in Yanjing and then come back!"
"As for those published articles...it doesn't matter if they believe it or not!"
Cheng Xuemin helped organize and tie up the things, and while talking to his father, he remembered something again and asked: "Didn't my son remit five hundred yuan to my family? Those are all the royalties I earned from publishing my manuscript. Mom didn’t show it to them?”
Previously, Feng Jiayou had a postal remittance of 500 yuan sent to his home. His mother could have shown the remittance slip. This was more convincing than anything else!
After all, that’s five hundred yuan!
As for the out-and-out farmers in Chengjiawan, they can earn an income of more than ten or twenty yuan throughout the year, which is already very good!
Five hundred yuan must be a huge amount of wealth to them, and they must be frightened to death.
"Uh... can you please keep your voice down!? Are you afraid that others won't know that you have five hundred yuan at home?!"
Cheng's father was shocked. He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. Then he said in a low voice, "Don't be so annoying when you get back. Don't expose your wealth to others, you know?"
"My mom and I haven't touched a single cent of the five hundred yuan that I remitted back. I will take it back to my parents when I get back!"
"Um, I'm having a good time at home with my mom. How much do you need your money?"
"Yeah yeah..."
After tying up the things, Cheng's father asked Cheng Xuemin to sit behind him. When he rode up, he staggered around and was about to fall over.
"Dad, dad, let me do it! You are not good at riding this bicycle!"
There is just such a precious bicycle in the Chengjiawan brigade. The captain and secretary of the brigade, Cheng Xuemin, is usually watching it. He really doesn't let the team members ride it easily.
Although Cheng's father is the team leader, he has not had much opportunity to ride this bicycle and is very unfamiliar with it.
Today I was able to borrow the uncle's precious bicycle. I must have known that Cheng Xuemin was coming back to pick him up, so I borrowed it.
Normally, even if Cheng Xuemin wanted to ride a bike to the commune, he wouldn't be able to borrow it if he didn't bring it with him!
"Okay, okay! You can do it! But can you ride a bicycle!? This is a bicycle. Your uncle is precious!"
Cheng's father finally managed to stabilize the bicycle and prevent it from falling down with him.
Hearing that he was so big and wanted to ride it, Cheng's father was immediately amused.
This kid's bicycle, he had to steal the bicycle secretly when he had time, and teach this kid!
I haven't seen him ride it before!
As far as his riding skills are concerned, he can usually ride alone without anyone else. But with someone and so many things, the trip back is still a mountainous road. Can he do it? !
"Dad, why can't I ride a bicycle!?"
"When I was in Yanjing, I took my children to and from school on bicycles every day. Why can't I ride?"
And he was despised by his own father! "real!?"
Father Cheng was somewhat convinced now. There wasn't much else in the city, but there were quite a few bicycles!
Fortunately, there are not many bicycles in the county, so Cheng's father rode his bicycle here today and never left his bicycle for fear of losing it.
I went to the city last year and there were a lot of bicycles on the road there!
"You'll know if you let me try it?"
Cheng Xuemin didn't bother to explain any more and just talked about his driving skills. The father and son exchanged positions again.
"Uh uh uh... Xuemin, you are... not bad!"
When he first started, Cheng Xuemin also almost fell down. Fortunately, after getting familiar with the weight balance of the car body, he stabilized himself again!
Then, it’s time to hit the road!
It was more than thirty miles from the county to the commune. Cheng Xuemin arrived at the passenger terminal at around two o'clock in the afternoon. It took almost two hours to get to the commune without stopping at the commune. It took another half an hour to finally arrive at Chengjiawan.
Although it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun still set a little bit later in the west than in Yanjing.
It's past five o'clock in Yanjing, and the sky is basically dark.
"Xuemin is back! Xuemin is back!"
"Our great talent from Yanjing, Cheng Xuemin, is back!"
When we first arrived at the entrance of the village, there was a wanderer wandering around the entrance of the village with nothing to do. When he saw Cheng Xuemin, he started shouting.
In an instant, almost everyone in Chengjiawan heard the sound and rushed out to join in the fun.
Because as early as the twelfth lunar month of last year, I heard the propaganda from Cheng Xuemin’s fucking brigade, saying that her eldest son Cheng Xuemin would bring his daughter-in-law from the educated youth spot to celebrate the New Year this year.
At that time, no one in the brigade believed her. They thought her mother was trying to save her face.
Sure enough, it couldn’t be sent back again!
What's even more exaggerated is that her daughter-in-law, a female educated youth, is pregnant. She has an eldest grandson from their old Cheng family, so it's hard for her to travel a long distance and come back to celebrate the New Year.
Why wait until her eldest grandson is born next year and then come back together during the summer vacation!
This is really ridiculous! Dare to talk about anything!
What happened in the end?
Isn’t it Cheng Xuemin, the eldest son of her family, who came back in despair?
It is also rumored that the eldest son of her family is now a great writer and a great talent in Yanjing!
He also took out those books in a decent manner and said that they were all sent back by the educated young woman who is her good daughter-in-law, and they were all written by her good eldest son!
Who believes it! ?
If they say it was written by the female educated youth who was admitted to Yanjing University, they can still believe it. After all, she is from the city of Yanjing, and she is an intellectual who was admitted to Yanjing University!
Is she just a big kid?
A great boy who couldn't even pass the college entrance examination could still become a great writer and a great talent in Yanjing?
It’s not just nonsense!
It’s fine now!
Her eldest son came back in despair. Now he should be able to explain all the nonsense, right?
First of all, her daughter-in-law, an educated youth, did not come back with her, so she must be talking nonsense;
Secondly, the great writer Yanjing, a great talent, returned to his hometown, looking so poor?
Well! ?
It doesn’t seem too poor. There are big and small bags on the back of the bicycle, and they really look like that!
Could it be that for the sake of face, they deliberately filled it with rags that city dwellers didn’t want, so that they could stick a green onion in a pig’s nose and pretend to be an elephant?
But having said that, Qin Guilan's eldest son Cheng Xuemin is dressed in brand new clothes, right?
Are you wearing a big leather jacket?
Look at his feet. They are actually a pair of leather shoes?
Oh my god!
Qin Guilan’s family is so big. Did she pick up rags and find money in Yanjing?
"Xuemin is back! Don't tell me, you've gained weight and become whiter in just half a year since you left!"
Brigade Secretary Cheng Yunjin narrowed his eyes and greeted Cheng Xuemin!
"Happy New Year, uncle. I'm sorry for not coming back to greet you on the first day of the new year. I'm rude to you!"
Cheng Xuemin also greeted this respected old man from Chengjiawan and paid New Year's greetings.
"It's okay, it's okay! It'll be fine when you come back. It'll be fine when you come back!"
Immediately afterwards, Cheng Xuemin kept saying hello to some elders in the village and wishing them happy new year. Then, surrounded by everyone, he pushed his bicycle to the door of his house.
Along the way, people in the village often pointed at him, and the most important thing was the big and small bags on his bicycle!
Everyone is guessing what kind of things in the city are contained in these big and small bags!
Is it the rags in the city, or something else!
"Xuemin, are you back!?"
Then there were many people at home waiting here, because they knew he would be back today!
So in addition to Cheng Xuemin's mother, Cheng's mother, there are also his grandfather, uncle and aunt, aunts and uncles, his brother-in-law, sister Cheng Wenxiu, and uncles at home.
It was his sister Cheng Wenxiu who rushed out and hugged him tightly!
Such a big thing happened at home before. Cheng Xuemin went to Yanjing overnight, but she, the elder sister, didn't come in time.
Now it's hard to wait for her brother to come back. It feels like it's a lifetime ago, and she keeps choking and wiping tears!
"Sister, didn't I come back well? Why are you crying?"
It’s okay to cry!
But all the snot and tears were wiped on his shoulders. These were new clothes that the Feng family had just bought.
Of course, if you feel deeply in love with your elder sister, you won’t dislike her as your younger brother!
"Sister, don't I miss you? Also, my mother also told me about the matter between you and your children. Why did you..."
Okay, okay, let’s discuss this matter later, sister. It’s already been a year, can we still be held responsible for the New Year?
Then I quickly said hello to my uncle, aunts and uncles and wished them a happy New Year!
After some pleasantries, I found out that because these relatives happened to know that Cheng Xuemin was coming back from Yanjing today, they all chose today to visit their relatives to pay New Year's greetings.
Immediately afterwards, Cheng's mother Qin Guilan inevitably wiped her tears when she saw her such a big boy, and Cheng Xuemin gave her a few words of comfort.
"Ah, Xuemin, did you buy so many things from Yanjing and give them to your mother?"
Here, my grandfather and uncle were asking questions about Cheng Xuemin, while my aunt and uncle were paying attention to the things Cheng Xuemin brought back on his bicycle.
These big and small bags are also of great concern to the team members and villagers who came to join in the fun!
They all want to know whether the big and small bags brought back by this big boy Qin Guilan are the rags that people don’t want in the city, or whether they are something else.
So with a shout from her relatives, all the eyes in the whole courtyard were attracted!
The grandfather, uncle, uncle, and the others who were talking here all looked over.
The things brought back from Yanjing City must be rare and good things, right?
"Well, auntie, these are the New Year's goods bought by my parents for the family. I was supposed to bring them back before the year, but they were delayed for a while!"
Cheng Xuemin nodded and explained again!
"Qin Guilan, don't take it into the house and look at it. Just open it here and it will open our eyes!"
Seeing that Cheng Xuemin's mother, Qin Guilan, wanted to put all the things into the house, some villagers watching the excitement cheered and shouted.
"Yes! The good things Xuemin brought back from Yanjing have opened our eyes to a certain extent!"
Immediately afterwards, they cheered and shouted again!

Dear dads, remember to vote monthly, thank you!
