It was six o'clock sharp when Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan arrived at "Tea and Food Alley".

After entering the hospital, they found the door of Shou's house according to their memories. Not wanting to be the same as when they were discharged from the hospital, they had another false alarm.

Just as they were about to knock on the door, a young man about the same age as Hong Yanwen, wearing a cotton coat and holding an aluminum pot, suddenly opened the door and came out. Both of them were startled again.

Fortunately, Shou Jingfang got up early and came out when he heard the noise. When he saw three people standing there in front of the door, holding things in hand and facing each other, he thought it was funny, so he quickly let them into the room and introduced them to each other.

I bet this young man is Shou Jingfang's son Shou Zheng. According to his age, Hong Yanwu would be called his cousin.

Before Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan could put down their things, Shou Jingfang knocked on the door of another inner room again, urging the people inside to come out and see someone. It turned out that his eldest daughter, Hong Yanwu's eldest cousin Shou Rong, was also there.

Back.

Hong Yanwu quickly congratulated his cousin on the family reunion, and took the opportunity to tell his parents about adopting Quanzi as his godson. As a result, Chen Liquan also officially changed his name to call Shou Jingfang his cousin and Shou Zheng as his cousin.

After Shourong came out of the house, the two of them met with their cousin again. Then, they formally presented the New Year's gift.

It is enough to talk about the things Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan brought. In these days, such good things are really hard to come by. In addition, they also brought a thousand yuan, which is what they brought

Considering that Shou Jingfang spends money as he pleases and has an older son and daughter at his knees, it is his intention to prepare for himself alone.

So when the two factors are added together, this generous gift from the Hong family is beyond people's imagination, but it shocked everyone in the Shou family.

However, the "miracle doctor" was born in a wealthy family after all, and he used to use agate as a catcher. He was no better than the two children who had grown up in hard times. He seemed to be stunned and could not control himself. He was stunned for a moment,

He regained his composure.

Then, after a few simple inquiries, I heard that Hong Yanwu had made a lot of money in Bincheng and his family had nothing to lose, so I stopped being polite to him. He accepted all the money and goods with a smile.

Naturally, he also knew the rules and asked about the Hong family's "busy year", and then generously asked the eldest daughter to bring out a "Jinhua Ham" and a "Jinling Salted Duck" that Hong Yanwu had prepared.

Take it home.

He said, "I originally wanted to send it to your home during the New Year greetings, but I didn't expect that you came back before the holiday, so I just returned the gift. It's just that the gift is a little meager, so don't dislike it."

When Hong Yanwu heard this, he immediately said he didn't dare, and then knelt down. He wanted to kowtow to Shou Jingfang three times to formally thank his cousin for his great kindness in saving his father.

But Shou Jingfang stopped him after only one head injury and said seriously, "Third brother, actually you don't need to thank me. Your father's life can be saved, which is not only a blessing from his lifelong virtues, but also yours."

My filial piety has been fulfilled. Others don’t know how difficult and dangerous it is to get this thing, but I don’t know it. Even though it’s just a piece of merchandise, when I see that your backs and backs are stiff and your energy and blood are low, I know that your chest and abdomen have just been severely injured. Isn’t that right?

We are in danger when we enter the sea..."

Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan looked at each other, both were sincerely surprised and had to nod their heads.

Shou Jingfang sighed and said with emotion, "I have many children and nephews in the Hong family. I originally thought that you were the least successful, but I didn't expect that you are so successful now. You actually said

You have done it, you have traveled thousands of miles to find the medicine, which makes me happy for your parents from the bottom of my heart. Yes, the Hong family has good tutors. Even if there are deviations or subtle influences, they can always return to the right path. This elder

Love for children, joyful family love, can never be compared with the chatter and chatter of a small family all day long. What is the foundation? This is the foundation! By the way, Quanzi is also a family now. If my cousin doesn’t see you outside, just

I hope you will always remember my words in the future. The foundation of love is only for relatives, and the establishment of respect is for elders. It starts from the family and the country and ends in the world..."

Shou Jingfang's words contained both praise and admonishment. Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan understood what they didn't understand, but they didn't dare to ignore it anyway, so they nodded respectfully together.

But after saying this, the two of them saw that the Shou family clock had already pointed to half past six, so they took the opportunity to say goodbye.

Shou Jingfang also guessed that they had other families to run away from, not to mention that he was about to go to work, so he didn't try to persuade him to stay. He only asked Hong Yanwu to send a message back, saying that on the first day of the Lunar New Year, they would visit with their whole family to pay New Year greetings, and they would meet there if they had any questions.

Just say it again.

Everyone said goodbye politely. After Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan were sent out of the courtyard by Shouzheng, they went to the flower market to look for the Feng family.

The so-called "Flower Market" actually refers to a street running east-west and more than 2,000 meters long in the southeast of Chongwenmen. It is divided into "West Flower Market Street" and "East Flower Market Street" with "Yangshikou" as the boundary.

During the Qing Dynasty, this street was the main production and trading center for silk flowers, paper flowers, and utensil flowers in the capital. The fake flowers and utensils sold here once won awards at the Panama International Exposition. During the Republic of China, this industry reached its peak.

It was prosperous, and at that time there were more than 300 stores operating permanently.

According to the rules of the old Beijing people, all alleys related to buying and selling shops are called "Tiao", so the sixteen nearby alleys named after "Tiao" such as the flower market are of course also included in the flower market.

This shows that the specific scope of the flower market is vast.

The Feng family moved here from Xisi in 1973. Their original house was too small, with only two small west rooms. After Yang Weifan's father was reinstated as an official, his mother wanted to repay the Feng family for taking care of her son for many years.

Arrangements were made for the Feng family to come here.

In addition, the official wife also arranged a part-time job for Feng Yuan's disabled father to help a street factory make plastic flowers at home. So now the Feng family lives in No. 7 Yard, Erjo, in the flower market.

There are three large north rooms in the house, just north of Xihuashi Street, not far from Shou's house.

Under Shou Zheng's instructions when they were leaving, Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan walked through Chongwenmen Street from west to east. They walked for only ten minutes and found the entrance to the Feng family after asking around.

The Feng family was as described by Yang Weifan, a very kind and simple family. As soon as Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan knocked on the door and announced their names, the family quickly let them into the room, saying that Yang Weifan had left a message and mentioned them.

.

Then they made tea and water, and took out the limited amount of peanuts and melon seeds for them to eat. They also made preparations to buy breakfast for them, boil eggs, and kept busy. Naturally, Hong Yanwu and the others did not want to disturb them, and they refused repeatedly before trying to dissuade them.

Unexpectedly, the current situation of the Feng family is not as good as they imagined, because the Feng family's grandma has suffered from Alzheimer's disease. Not only can she not hear clearly, she can't recognize people, and she even has to rely on others to eat porridge.

Moreover, Feng Yuan's father also struggled to take care of himself. Due to his long-term disability and poor health, this also caused a great drag on the family.

In addition, the economic conditions of Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan's Guanfeng family were also very poor. Although the house was well kept clean, not only were the household furnishings mostly broken, but the patches on their clothes were also old and young.

Could it be that Yang Weifan got so much money and didn’t help them? This is impossible!

The doubts that Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan had were resolved not long after, because whether it was the New Year's gift they offered or the three hundred yuan they brought to repay the favor, the Feng family refused to accept it.

Feng Yuan's father said that he now has a monthly income, and his wife and daughter also have wages. The family's life is difficult, but it is enough. Thanks to the Yang family, they also live in a big house, but it is nothing.

No longer satisfied.

Moreover, when Grandma Feng was smart, she left a message, saying that you should rely on yourself as a person, that the Yang family did not owe the Feng family anything, and that she would not allow the Feng family to trouble others for anything from now on.

Their whole family has always kept this in mind. Because of this, their hearts can remain peaceful and they can feel that their lives are fulfilling and comfortable.

As for Yang Weifan, he still regarded them as relatives and elders, and came to send money and gifts many times. Although they were moved, they still hoped to maintain the peace of mind of being self-sufficient financially.

For example, two months ago, Yang Weifan returned to Beijing for a visit and sent a lot of money. They could not refuse it on the surface, so they could only send it back to Bincheng. This incident was enough to show that they did not deliberately refute it.

Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan save face and hope they won't mind or misunderstand and take their things and money back.

Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan were indeed surprised. This family was really cunning. This was probably what most people ridiculed as the "poor people who desperately want to save face and suffer." However, such an ethics of not being happy with things or being sad for oneself, and

You can’t help but feel a sense of respect!

However, seeing that this trip was going to be in vain, Hong Yanwu was definitely not willing to give in. So he then gave him a lot of persuasion, saying that if they just went back like this, they would have failed their trust and would have no shame to see Yang Weifan again.

Noodles. Moreover, the items have been purchased and it would be a waste if the Feng family did not accept them and could not hold them back.

Anyway, after much talk, Feng Yuan's father finally agreed to accept the ribs, ribs, water chestnuts, chives, fruits and eggs. But it wasn't for free. He had to ask Feng Yuan's mother to get ten yuan, which was regarded as a purchase.

of.

At this point, Hong Yanwu was convinced, so he took a step back and stopped giving away things like other flashy things that everyone knew how expensive they were.

He just insisted on keeping the two bottles of Maotai. He said these were the greeting gifts for their visit and had nothing to do with the Yang family or Yang Weifan.

Hong Yanwu also said that they not only respect the Feng family as people, but they are also children of a small family and understand the difficulties of life. Therefore, even if the economy does not go well in the future, the Feng family will have to buy coal, transport vegetables, repair water and electricity

If you have any troublesome or physical work, you might as well come to them.

After he finished speaking, he took out a pen and paper and wrote down the public telephone number and home address of Furuli, promising to be on call at any time.

In this way, the Feng family felt that their intentions were indeed sincere, and they had no choice but to accept the hospitality.

But in the end, the Feng family still took out a lot of plastic flowers and some traditional silk flowers handmade by Feng Yuan, and asked them to take them back to add some joy to the family, which was regarded as a return gift.

Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan both knew well that this was the best result. They could not force themselves any further, so they accepted the money and goods calmly. Finally, they told the Feng family not to have any contact with them, so they

As a son-nephew, if anything happens at home, he must say something and then leave.

After being sent out by the Feng family, the two of them were still chatting after walking a long way. Everyone felt that the Feng family had a sensitivity and self-esteem that ordinary people could not match. The family's principles of life made people feel a little bit rigid, but they couldn't.

Not really admired.

Of course, when they first met, the tall and graceful girl Feng Yuan must be the main content of their gossip. That Feng Yuan was tall and good-looking, but she seemed very shy and did not speak most of the time, just listening quietly.

.

Hong Yanwu was somewhat aware of Yang Weifan's thoughts, so he asked Chen Liquan how he thought Feng Yuan compared with the "Jade Faced Rakshasa".

Chen Liquan thought for a while and said, "Both of them look like the people in the painting, but the eldest girl of the Feng family is completely different from Nurse Zhou. She is not so beautiful that people are suddenly surprised, nor is she so beautiful.

The pretentiousness that makes people unattainable is another kind of...a kind..."

"It feels as comfortable as the breeze blowing on my face!"

"Yes! It just makes people feel comfortable..."

Chen Liquan couldn't find the right words to describe it, but Hong Yanwu's words spoke exactly to his heart. This was really appropriate.

Hong Yanwu lowered his head and smiled, then clicked his tongue before speaking again.
