Chapter 62 He likes you
"I heard that you already know your life experience?" Wei Mingchuan looked at Cen Wangsu and asked.
Cen Wangsu nodded, "I understand."
Wei Mingchuan asked: "What are you thinking in your heart?"
Cen Wangsu thought for a while, "Actually, I was quite surprised when I heard it at first, and in my heart...I couldn't say for sure, but now I'm fine, I'm fine."
Wei Mingchuan asked: "Is it really good or fake?"
Cen Wangsu: "That's great."
The boy, who was only in his teens, had youthful expression on his face, but his expression was extremely serious.
Or maybe he was still worried because he was afraid of Wei Mingchuan, so Cen Wangsu said again: "Uncle, you don't have to worry about me, I'm really fine."
"Okay." Wei Mingchuan patted Cen Wangsu on the shoulder, "Since you said so, I won't ask any more questions. Don't think too much about anything else. Your main task now is to study hard and grow up well. .”
"Yes, I will." Cen Wangsu nodded and said.
At the end of 1976, there was still little news from Beijing. Unexpectedly, as soon as the New Year was over, news came one after another that many people had been rehabilitated, including Ji Zhoutong and Cen Shuyao.
Principal Fang said: "Everything is completely fine over there, and I watched with cold eyes. Now more and more people are being rehabilitated. The previous days when people were always on tenterhooks, fearing that something would happen if they said the wrong word should be gone. Okay, you can also think about getting acquainted."
Lin Nianyin nodded and said, "I've thought about it, but it's just too busy over there now, and we can't get out. Let's wait until summer vacation."
Principal Fang thought for a while and said: "The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, and summer vacation is coming soon. You're right. It's been so long anyway, and I don't care if it's just a while, right?"
But what Lin Nianyin didn't expect was that before the summer vacation, Wei Mingchuan had to leave temporarily due to matters here.
Because of confidentiality regulations, Wei Mingchuan did not say what happened, but told Lin Nianyin that it was a good thing before leaving.
Lin Nianyin couldn't think of anything good for the time being, so she could only wait for Wei Mingchuan to reveal the secret.
By the time summer vacation came, Wei Mingchuan had not returned yet.
Lin Nianyin communicated with the capital city and finally decided to take her two children there first.
Lin Nianyin took the train from here. When they arrived, Cen Haiyan would pick them up there. Apart from being careful when getting on the train, there was nothing else to worry about.
Transportation is not very developed at this time, and it takes several days to travel from south to north.
The last time the little girl took a train was in 1972. Now five years later, she still doesn't like this kind of long journey. She spent the second half of the journey lingering on Lin Nianyin and Cen Wangsu.
As for Cen Wangsu, he seems quite calm on the surface, but sometimes he tends to be in a daze.
Lin Nianyin knew that it was useless to comfort him at this time, so she didn't bother him much.
By the time we arrived in Beijing, it was already dark.
After Lin Nianyin got off the bus with her two children, she saw Cen Haiyan standing on the platform.
White shirt, suit pants, a slim man.
Next to him was a comrade in military uniform, who looked very friendly.
It might be Ji Zhoutong's security guard or something like that.
With the most important person, Wei Mingchuan, away, Lin Nianyin faced this situation alone, which was still a bit embarrassing no matter what.
The two children beside him also followed Lin Nianyin and stood still.
The little girl rubbed her eyes, yawned and said, "Mom, why don't we leave?"
Lin Nianyin calmed down and said, "Mom has seen your uncle. Remember to call someone when you see him later."
The little girl blinked, "Uncle, is your brother's father? Where is he?"
The last time the little girl saw Cen Haiyan was in 1972, and she no longer remembers him now.
Lin Nianyin gestured forward, then touched the back of Cen Wangsu's head and said, "Su Su, don't be nervous."
Cen Wangsu licked his lips, "Yeah."
The little girl looked at Lin Nianyin and the others, and then at Cen Haiyan and the others who were walking this way.
When the two parties got closer, the little girl saw that no one spoke first, so she walked between them and stared at Cen Haiyan: "Are you my brother's father?"
Cen Haiyan lowered his head and looked at the little girl, "I am, you are Xiaoxiao, right?"
The little girl tilted her head and said, "Yes, but how do you know my name?"
Cen Haiyan smiled, squatted down and touched the little girl's head and said, "I've known it for a long time, but you have forgotten that we have met before."
"Really?" The little girl frowned and said, "You are not allowed to lie to others?"
Cen Haiyan smiled and said, "I'm not lying. If you don't believe me, you can ask your mother?"
The little girl turned back, "Mom?"
Lin Nianyin nodded, "Yes."
The little girl said "Oh", "That's it."
Then, she waved to Cen Haiyan, "Come a little closer to me."
Cen Haiyan didn't know why and subconsciously looked at Lin Nianyin.
Lin Nianyin shook her head, "I don't know."
When the little girl saw this, she patted Cen Haiyan on the shoulder, "Why are you so rude? I'm talking to you. What do you think, looking for my mother is?"
Lin Nianyin frowned, "Xiaoxiao, don't talk nonsense."
Cen Haiyan waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, Xiaoxiao is right."
When Lin Nianyin saw this and was about to speak out, she saw that Cen Haiyan had already approached according to the little girl's request.
The little girl raised her hand and patted Cen Haiyan's face, then touched his neck, shoulders, hands... and then circled around Cen Haiyan several times.
Lin Nianyin frowned, "Xiaoxiao, what are you doing? What did mother tell you before she left?"
The little girl waved her hand and said, "Mom, don't talk, you are disturbing me."
Lin Nianyin: "..."
Cen Haiyan raised his hand and smiled at Lin Nianyin, "It's okay."
The little girl didn't know what she was looking at, but she circled around Cen Haiyan a few times and then came close to him and sniffed him, like a puppy.
Lin Nianyin said again: "Xiaoxiao!"
The little girl ignored it, but looked at Cen Haiyan and said, "I just observed that you are quite clean, there is no dirt on your hands, and you don't smell bad. You look a bit like my dad."
Cen Haiyan didn't quite understand what the little girl meant, so he smiled and said, "Really? Thanks for the compliment, Xiaoxiao."
The little girl put her hands behind her back and raised her chin and said, "I'm not complimenting you. I'm observing you. It's not over yet. Don't get too excited."
Cen Haiyan: "..."
"Okay." Cen Haiyan nodded again, "Then what else do you want to observe."
The little girl said, "Let me ask you a question."
Cen Haiyan said: "You ask."
The little girl turned around and took Cen Wangsu's hand, then walked up to Cen Haiyan, stared at him and said, "Do you like my brother?"
"I like it." Cen Haiyan looked at Cen Wangsu and smiled, "I like it very much."
The little girl asked, "Really?"
Cen Haiyan nodded, "Really."
The little girl asked again: "Then will you be good to my brother? A super, super good kind?"
Cen Haiyan raised his hand, probably wanting to touch Cen Wangsu, but he seemed a little worried, and finally just smiled.
"I will."
"Okay then." The little girl thought for a while and said, "Since your answer is quite satisfactory and you love to be clean, I will let you pass for the time being."
"Ah?" Cen Haiyan smiled and couldn't help but said: "So you are inspecting me for your brother, right?"
The little girl nodded matter-of-factly, "Of course."
Cen Haiyan took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly. He couldn't help but raise his hand and touch the little girl's head and said, "I will be good to your brother and I will be good to you in the future."
The little girl waved her hands and said, "You don't have to be nice to me. You have to remember to be nice to my brother, otherwise I will let my father take my brother back."
Cen Haiyan said, "I won't let you have this opportunity."
There are not many people on the train at night.
While they were talking, there were fewer and fewer people on the platform.
There were dim headlights standing around. Lin Nianyin saw something glistening in Cen Haiyan's eyes. Then he raised her hand to touch Cen Wangsu's face again and said hoarsely: "Su Su, daddy is here to take you home."
Cen Wangsu stared at Cen Haiyan blankly, as if he was stupid.
Until Lin Nianyin touched Cen Wangsu's shoulder and said, "Su Su, come to your senses."
Cen Wangsu's empty eyes suddenly focused, and he stared blankly at Cen Haiyan for a while, then slowly approached him, opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to shout out, "Dad...Dad..."
Cen Haiyan's tears fell instantly and he held Cen Wangsu in his arms.
"Dad..." Cen Wangsu shouted again.
"Yes, dad is here." Cen Haiyan hugged Cen Wangsu tightly, and he didn't react until a staff member urged them to leave quickly.
Cen Haiyan wiped the tears on his face, then helped Cen Wangsu wipe his face clean, and said, "Let's go, daddy will take you home."
Then he stretched out his other hand to the little girl and said, "Xiaoxiao."
Sister-in-law smiled "Hehe" and said, "Uncle, please hold my hand."
Cen Haiyan smiled, then looked at Lin Nianyin and said, "Sister in law"
Lin Nianyin nodded, "Brother."
Cen Haiyan held the hands of the two children and said, "Let's go home."
The young man in military uniform next to Cen Haiyan helped Lin Nianyin with her luggage.
When we arrived at the place, it was already more than an hour later.
After Ji Zhoutong was rehabilitated, a lot of his previous assets were gradually returned, but he still lives in the allocated compound.
It can't be said that there are five steps, one post, ten steps and one sentry, but there are a lot of procedures.
After checking everything, Lin Nianyin and the others were able to go in.
The houses in the compound are all small single-family villas, hidden among the flying green plants.
It's hot now, and there are still many people walking on the road outside holding cattail fans to fan the wind.
When they saw Lin Nianyin and the others, they couldn't help but cast curious eyes.
It wasn't until she entered the house that Lin Nianyin couldn't feel those eyes.
The house was brightly lit.
There was no one in the living room, but there was a lot of noise in one room. It seemed that Ji Zhoutong and Cen Shuyao were quarreling.
Cen Haiyan took one look and said: "That's the kitchen over there. Dad and Mom insisted on cooking for you personally. I don't know how the preparations are now."
Lin Nianyin listened carefully, and it seemed that they were actually bickering over something to burn.
Lin Nianyin said: "We actually ate on the train. We are not very hungry now, so we don't need to prepare too much."
Cen Haiyan smiled and said, "I don't know what my parents have prepared. I'm going to take a look. Sister in-law, you have been carrying them on the train for several days. Do you want to go wash them first? I will let Zhang Ma take care of them." You go over there.”
The Ma Zhang mentioned by Cen Haiyan should be the nanny at home. Lin Nianyin and the others were busy from the side as soon as they entered the door.
Lin Nianyin nodded and said, "That's fine."
Hearing this, Zhang's mother said: "The bathroom and lounge are upstairs, I will take you there."
When Lin Nianyin and the two children came out of the shower, Cen Haiyan and the others were already waiting.
The previous security guard and Zhang Ma are not in the house now.
Seeing them coming down, the three people immediately stood up and looked over.
Cen Haiyan has already experienced it once, and his expression is better now. Ji Zhoutong and Cen Shuyao are both excited and nervous.
Lin Nianyin looked down at the two children, stretched out her hand and pushed them on the back.
The little girl lowered her head and grabbed Cen Wangsu's hand, walked up to Ji Zhou and the others, and stared up at them.
"Are you my grandpa and grandma?" the little girl asked.
"Yes, yes, we are." Ji Zhoutong and Cen Shuyao said quickly.
The little girl tilted her head and said, "Don't you welcome me and my brother?"
"Why are you not welcome? It's too late for us to be happy," the two people quickly explained: "Why do Xiaoxiao think so? Grandpa and grandma welcome you. Are you unhappy because grandpa and grandma didn't go to pick you up? Already?"
The little girl said: "It doesn't matter whether you accept it or not, but we have been here for so long, haven't you prepared any gifts for us?"
"Xiaoxiao!" Lin Nianyin didn't expect that the little girl would say such a thing, and couldn't help but frown, "What are you talking about? How does your mother usually teach you?"
The little girl didn't pay attention at all. Cen Shuyao and Ji Zhoutong were stunned for a moment, and they didn't care about Lin Nianyin. They quickly said: "We are ready. We have prepared a lot. Now... I will get it for you right now." .”
The little girl nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Lin Nianyin walked over and knelt down in front of the little girl, frowning and said: "Xiaoxiao, do you know that mother is angry?"
"Mom is not angry." The little girl hugged Lin Nianyin's neck, kissed her, and whispered: "Mom, I am helping my brother. Don't interrupt, otherwise I will be embarrassed."
Lin Nianyin: "..."
Taking a deep breath, Lin Nianyin couldn't help but said: "Who told you to do this?"
The little girl said matter-of-factly: "Isn't it what Aunt Xiao Su often says? Whether a person treats you well or not depends on whether he is willing to spend money on you. I think it is right. I want to see whether they are willing to spend money on me and my brother. I spent money to see if they would treat us well, especially my brother."
Lin Nianyin: "..."
The little girl's tone was so matter-of-fact that Lin Nianyin couldn't refute it for a while and didn't know how to refute it.
Just when Lin Nianyin sighed, Ji Zhou and each of them came out of the house with a bunch of things in their arms, and then clattered them in front of the two children.
Start dividing the spoils.
Forgetting food, clothing, daily necessities, and entertainment, Lin Nianyin actually saw one of them stuffing big red envelopes into the arms of the two children, one stuffing a house book, and the other stuffing jade items.
Lin Nianyin said: "This is too much, these won't do."
It's a pity that no one paid attention to her or listened to what she said.
The little girl doesn’t know much about the latter two, but she knows about money.
She happily took the money in the red envelope and looked at it for a while, then went to study the house book and jade in her hand.
"What are these two?"
"This is the house book," Cen Shuyao hugged the little girl and said, "It's just a house."
The little girl immediately looked through it in surprise and asked, "Can this thing be turned into a house?"
"It's not that this book can be turned into a house, but with this book, you have a house of your own." Cen Shuyao explained patiently.
The little girl frowned and thought for a moment, "But I live with my parents. I don't need a house."
Cen Shuyao said: "It doesn't matter if you don't need it, we can just put the house there."
The little girl waved her hand and said, "Okay, never mind, what about this? What is this?"
Cen Shuyao helped the little girl carry the Jade Buddha and said, "This is jade. Carrying it is good for your health."
The little girl frowned, "Can it still cure diseases?"
Cen Shuyao said: "Jade cannot cure diseases, but it can nourish people. Especially for girls, they carry jade with them all year round to nourish their bodies."
"Forget it, I don't understand." The little girl sighed, "I just want to know if this thing is worth anything?"
Cen Shuyao smiled and said, "It's not very valuable. You can play with it. If you don't like it anymore, grandma will give you a new one."
"It's not worth it!" The little girl sighed, and suddenly lost interest in the Jade Buddha in her hands.
"Brother, let me take a look at yours." The little girl ran to Cen Wangsu again to see what he got.
Cen Shuyao and the others did not favor any one. Both children prepared similar things.
The little girl thought for a while, then pulled Cen Wangsu aside, and the two children were whispering.
"They are..."
Lin Nianyin shook her head and said, "I must be wondering how much these things are worth."
"Ah?" Cen shuyao asked, not knowing what was going on: "What does this mean?"
Lin Nianyin sheepishly explained what the little girl just said, and then said: "Well... Dad, Mom, I'm sorry, I didn't expect the child to be like this."
This was the first time Lin Nianyin called them like this. Cen Shuyao and Ji Zhoutong quickly looked at each other and said, "Why are you apologizing? There is no need to apologize. I think Xiaoxiao is right."
Lin Nianyin smiled awkwardly.
Cen Shuyao stood up, then took a box and put it in Lin Nianyin's hand and said: "Lin..."
"You can call me Lin Nian Yin, Xiao Lin, Nian Yin, Yin Yin," Lin Nian Yin said.
Cen Shuyao said, "How about I call you Yin Yin from now on?"
Lin Nianyin nodded: "Okay, Mingchuan has been calling me this too."
Cen Shuyao smiled and said, "Yin Yin, I don't know wh
at to say. We are all a family anyway, so I won't say any polite words. Inside the box is the gift we prepared for you. Open it and take a look. like or not?"
Lin Nianyin thought for a while and said, "Okay."
Inside the box are bankbooks, house books, and some jewelry.
Lin Nianyin quickly said: "Mom, these are too expensive."
Cen Shuyao shook his head and said: "What do these things mean? If nothing happened to our family before, I would be too embarrassed to take out these things. Unfortunately, most of the family assets have been damaged in the past ten years and have been returned. It’s just a drop in the bucket, I can only give you this.”
"But……"
Cen Shuyao held down Lin Nianyin's hand and said, "Since you call me mom, then listen to me and accept it, otherwise I don't know how to face you. We owe you so much."
Lin Nianyin pondered for a while, "Okay, I'll keep it first."
"That's right." Cen Shuyao immediately smiled and said, "Actually, I've been worried that you wouldn't like it!"
Lin Nianyin smiled and said, "I like it very much."
"That's good, that's good." After saying that, Cen Shuyao looked at the two children subconsciously, "Hey, where are Xiaoxiao and Susu?"
Ji Zhoutong said: "The two children talked for a while and then went back to the room hand in hand without letting us follow them. I don't know what they were doing."
Lin Nianyin said: "Let me go and have a look."
"Don't look, we're already down!" The little girl's voice came in happily, and she ran over soon.
Lin Nianyin looked at the thing in her hand and couldn't help but smile.
The little girl looked at Lin Nianyin with disapproval and said, "Mom?"
Lin Nianyin waved her hand, "Okay, I won't laugh."
The little girl hummed, then waved to Cen Wangsu and said, "Brother."
Cen Wangsu followed and walked over.
The little girl then waved to Cen Shuyao and the others and said, "Grandpa, grandma, uncle, come here."
"What's wrong?" Cen Shuyao asked.
"You guys come here first!" the little girl said.
Cen Shuyao walked over with the other two, "Xiaoxiao, what's wrong?"
The little girl brushed the things on her hands and spread them out, carefully identified them, and then said: "This soldier grandpa is for grandpa, this doctor grandma is for grandma, and this teacher is for uncle."
"Is this... a gift for us?" Cen Shuyao asked in surprise.
The little girl nodded and said: "Yes, mom and others have always said that kindness is more important than courtesy. My brother and I can only draw pictures for you since we don't know how to make money. When we grow up and make money, we can buy you good things." So don’t dislike our gifts!”
"How could it be? We like it so much, we don't dislike it, not at all!" the three people said immediately, then looked at Cen Wangsu's hand and said, "Is the gift Su Su is holding in her hand also a gift for us?"
Cen Wangsu nodded and gave out the gifts in his hands.
The content in the painting is not much different from that of the little girl, but the brushwork is much more mature.
The little girl immediately said: "Don't dislike your brother, otherwise I won't like you!"
"We don't dislike it. We don't dislike it. We like it very much! We like it very much."
The little girl immediately said: "That's pretty much it. Now I've decided that I like you to be my grandparents."
Cen Shuyao fell in love with such a quirky little girl. He immediately hugged her and said, "You are so cute, but you are so cute."
The little girl turned up her nose and said, "Of course it's because I'm the cutest baby!"
Cen Shuyao laughed, and then saw the little girl grabbing Cen Wangsu's hand and saying, "My brother is the best brother in the world!"
Cen Wangsu smiled and said, "Xiaoxiao is also the best sister."
"Of course, we are the best!"
Cen Shuyao blinked and held both children in her arms, "Yes, you are both the best."
When going to bed at night, it was originally arranged for Cen Wangsu and Cen Haiyan to sleep together. Unexpectedly, when Lin Nianyin was about to fall asleep, Cen Wangsu ran over.
Lin Nianyin quickly asked people to sit down and couldn't help but said: "Susu, why are you here? Don't you want to sleep with daddy?"
Cen Wangsu pursed his lips and shook his head, "No."
"What happened? Are you angry with dad? Or had a quarrel?" Lin Nianyin asked again.
Cen Wangsu still shook his head, "None of them."
Lin Nianyin raised her eyes and looked over. The child kept clasping his fingers, and his expression was more shy than other emotions.
Lin Nianyin understood.
She walked over and said, "It turns out we Susu are embarrassed, right?"
Cen Wangsu pursed his lips and smiled, "Auntie!"
Lin Nianyin touched Cen Wangsu's head and said, "Otherwise, you can sleep with us tonight, okay?"
Cen Wangsu nodded immediately, "Yes."
"Then you sleep next to my sister." Lin Nianyin said. After Cen Wangsu lay down, she found him a sheet and put it on his belly and said, "Su Su, did dad know when you came out?"
Cen Wangsu shook his head, "He fell asleep."
Lin Nianyin said "hmm", thought for a while and asked: "Then aunt asks you, are you happy today?"
"Yeah." Cen Wangsu nodded.
"I like dad, grandpa and grandma."
"like."
Lin Nianyin smiled and said, "As long as you like it, go to sleep."
After Cen Wangsu fell asleep, Lin Nianyin opened the door and went out.
The lights in the living room were indeed on, and Cen Haiyan was sitting alone.
Lin Nianyin said: "Brother, Su Su is asleep, don't worry about him. Also, I just asked him if he likes you, and he said he does. It's just that the child is shy and may need some time to adapt. You don't have to worry. There’s no need to be nervous.”
