Zhang Feng's point of coming home was exactly when he was eating at noon.

Today’s family is relatively complete. Except for the eldest sister Zhang Jing’s family, the love of the younger sister Zhang Wen and the second uncle’s family is also there. What surprised Zhang Feng most was that his younger brother Zhang Yi also came back. He couldn’t help but smile and said, "Hey, so Is it a holiday long ago?"

Zhang Yi studied at the Provincial University of Technology, majoring in electronic information engineering. The school is located in the southern suburbs of the provincial capital. Although Zhang Feng often resides in the provincial capital, he has never been to Zhang Yi’s school. By depositing them into Zhang Yi’s account on time every month, Zhang Yi can withdraw them at the bank where the school is located. At this time, although the foreign exchange has not been realized, the same city is no problem.

Therefore, since Zhang Yi was admitted to university, the two brothers have almost never met. Zhang Yi has a natural escape, and there is no stability underneath his buttocks. He occasionally has a vacation and never thought about going home. Most of them choose to be with classmates. When going out to play, he hardly paid any attention to family affairs, anyway, he has no right to say at home for the time being.

Zhang Yi chuckled and said, "A few days ago, some of my classmates left school and went home for the New Year. I think I'm gone late."

When Zhang Feng heard this, he knew that most of the servants ran away early, but he knew what was going on in the university. He didn't dwell on these details, but just smiled and said, "Is it accustomed to school? It depends on you. Month seems to have gained a lot. Isn't it because I suddenly lost the pressure of the college entrance examination, so I just thought of letting the sheep go?"

Zhang Yi said: "Where? Compared to when the college entrance examination was just over, I lost two and a half catties."

Zhang Feng laughed: "It's okay to lose weight. It's hard to find a girlfriend if you're too fat."

Zhang Jing said: "Have you not eaten yet? Sister will make you dinner."

Zhang Feng glanced at the food on the table, walked to the table and sat down, nodded and said, "Get me a bowl of rice."

In the morning, I drank a bowl of wontons and steamed buns. In the morning, I drank two bottles of wine with Yuan Hongbing at Jinque Hotel. I didn’t taste a few sips of the dishes. I was really hungry at the moment. In fact, there are more of them. Because I got rid of a trouble in my heart and my mood improved, this appetite naturally came up.

After asking a few questions about Zhang Yi at school, Zhang Feng turned to his sister Zhang Wen: "Are you going to have winter vacation soon?"

Zhang Wendao: "It's already set, brother, I plan to work for my second uncle during the winter vacation and sell barbecue with Ai Ai!"

Zhang Feng gave a "chi" smile and said, "Is it greedy? It's okay to eat barbecue occasionally, but it's not good to eat every day."

Zhang Jing said next to him: "Why don't you let Wenwen go to the quarry to help for a few days, right? There is still a lack of accountants over there. Let Wenwen hold it for a few days first, and you will have to quickly find one after the new year."

Zhang Feng pondered for a moment, and asked Zhang Yi from his side, "When will I go to school in the next year?"

Zhang Yi said: "It's on the sixth day, but I plan to go to Linchuan with my classmates during the Spring Festival. I heard that a new underground cave has been developed there. The scenery is amazing. Many villagers still go to the cave entrance every day to worship."

Zhang Feng originally planned to arrange Zhang Yi to go to the quarry to help for a few days, but when he heard this, he died of the idea, and said to Zhang Wen: "Then you can go to the quarry and help for a few days. Sister, please, it is paid for you, okay?"

Zhang Wen naturally agreed with joy. The accounting of the quarry is not complicated, and writing calculations is not a difficult task for her high school student. As for going to the barbecue booth to help with part-time work, she just wants to join in the fun, yes. That’s all for fun.

After dinner, the family sat in the living room. Zhang Feng lit a cigarette. After Zhang Jing took Fang Qian into the bedroom to rest, he turned his head and asked Zhang Yi, "Have you returned to Luo Village?"

Zhang Yishu said in a tone: "I've been back, I said second brother, do you really let parents sell the house?"

Zhang Feng frowned and said, "Is the house going to be sold?"

Zhang Yi was taken aback, then smiled bitterly, and said, "Go back in the morning and listen to what my mother said. Even if the fines of my eldest brother are according to the lowest standard, it will not be less than half a million. I’m talking about 30,000 or 40,000, and I’m talking to people now. If I wait for two or three months, I guess it’s worth 20,000 yuan. The remaining holes will have to be filled, right?"

Zhang Feng took a puff of cigarette and said in deep thought, "What else did we tell you?"

Zhang Yidao: "What else can I say? My dad asked someone to inquire. If the fine is not paid, the sentence will definitely be heavier at that time. The fine can be paid, not to mention that the sentence will be less than a few years, at least not so much earlier. That’s the case at home. Basically, all the money earned is put into the store. My parents don’t have much money for themselves, so I plan to sell both the drugstore and the ancestral house."

Zhang Feng said indifferently, "The drug store and the house are all sold. Who will live my life in the future? Where do I live? Who will take care of Zhang Yuan?"

Zhang Yi didn’t say anything anymore. He just said that, and he still got the idea after going back to listen to the old man’s nagging. In fact, deep down in his heart, his thoughts are not much different from those of others. He feels that Zhang Feng is fully capable of Zhang Ke and his wife, even if they can't do it, it should be no problem to miss a few years. As for the fine, it might be waived.

Zhang Feng has one more life experience than a human being, and he has a much deeper understanding of the human heart and human nature than ordinary people. How can he not guess Zhang Yi's careful thinking? In fact, it can't be regarded as Zhang Yi's idea, but the idea of his parents or even relatives and friends. He absolutely does not allow this kind of idea to breed, otherwise, he will inevitably have endless troubles in the future.

Flicking off the ashes, Zhang Feng pondered and said: "Today 24. Ordinarily, we should all go back to Luo Village tonight to worship the stove. However, there is still something in the county. It is not convenient for me to leave, so just follow Wenwen. Let’s go back. Since my mom said these things to you, they must have some thoughts in their hearts. You can ask me if my parents are doing this, do they want to put me in jail and replace the eldest brother and his wife. ?"

Zhang Feng’s words are already very straightforward. He will not do things that are in vain unless he wants to enter the cell, the family’s house, the drug store and the ancestral house. If he wants to sell it, he will not stop him, but he will also not stop for future life problems. No matter what, Zhang Yuan, his nephew, didn't expect to entrust him, because in his opinion, his parents had sold the house, not only slapped him in the face, but also forced him.

Zhang Wen sat on the sofa without saying a word. In fact, before Zhang Feng came back, Zhang Yi told them about going home. Zhang Wen persuaded the third brother not to say these things. Fang Lan also analyzed with Zhang Yi. Once again, he said: "Unless Zhang Feng broke the law in private, went through the back door or even bribed, otherwise, Zhang Ke and Wang Hui would never be released. By doing so, you are forcing your second brother to make mistakes."

Zhang Yi really didn’t think so much before. Don’t look at him now as a college student, but in fact, he knows very little about human relationships and societies, and he belongs to the innocent lamb in the ivory tower. Knowing what is wrong, and judging right and wrong based on their own likes and dislikes, I always feel in my heart that Zhang Feng should do something.

Raising his wrist and looking at his watch, Zhang Feng took out the wallet from his pocket, took out a stack of money and handed it to Zhang Yi: "Take Wenwen to the street in the afternoon to buy something, go back and have a look, uh, buy some toys for Yuan Yuan or something. , If you want to come back tonight, just call and ask brother-in-law to pick you up."

Fang Lan took the conversation next to him and said, "It's okay, I will accompany them back to Luo Village in the afternoon."

Zhang Feng said "Oh", waved his hand to his younger brother and sister, and said, "Then go out and buy things as soon as possible. By the way, buy decent clothes for Wenwen, go early and return early."

Zhang Yi was not embarrassed. He took the money from Zhang Feng and ran out with Zhang Wen happily. The siblings had just left the corridor, and Zhang Wen said: "Go and go, go and buy me a box of Xu Ji's. green bean cake!"

Zhang Yi curled his lips and said: "You pig, you know how to eat. Be careful if you gain weight, no one wants it! I still want to check the small VCR first. I have been thinking about it for a long time. I heard that it is imported from Germany. Hundred na."

Zhang Wen "snorted" and said: "I don't care, I will buy clothes later, if the money is not enough, I will give you to others!"

Zhang Yi laughed and said, "I've asked about it a long time ago, that model is only more than 400 yuan, and my second brother gave me more than 2,000 yuan."

Zhang Wen opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but hesitated for a while and didn't say anything.

Zhang Yi hesitated slightly when he saw this, and then he pondered: "Or, let's go directly to the clothing store?"

Zhang Wen sighed, his emotions were obviously not high: "The two of us just took all the money back to our mother, it's not worth it."

In the living room, Zhang Feng and his younger siblings went out and said, "Is the equipment in Beijing all here?"

Fang Lan nodded and said: "It has just arrived and is now leveling the site according to the installation requirements. It is estimated that the official installation will not start after the Spring Festival. Two technicians from the manufacturer are instructing the preliminary preparations. Because the new year is approaching, let's People on the side also have to celebrate the New Year, so after discussing, the two technicians will go back after arranging the preliminary preparations and wait until the next year."

Zhang Feng nodded and said: "It's okay, just work step by step, don't mess up the foundation just because you are in a hurry to meet the deadline."

Fang Lan smiled and said: "I understand this. There is no one on our side who is starting a new house at this time. As long as the bricks are produced before summer, it is enough to install so many cement brick machines at once, and I am afraid that the bricks will be produced. Can't digest it."

Zhang Feng shook his head and said, "Just put a hundred and twenty hearts. Nothing is enough. After the start of construction, although the production is just there, I guess, I have to find someone to collect sand from the river. It is the stone moss of the stone hammer, which may not be able to support the consumption of cement bricks. I am still waiting for the cement brick funds to be returned, and then get those barren mountains in the estuary."

Dididi, the pager in his pocket rang, Zhang Feng took it in his hand and looked at it, and said, "I'm going to work. If you have something to do, please call me." After that, he grabbed the microphone next to him and said back. Passed over, said: "Secretary Xiao?"

Xiao Han, Xu Yuan's secretary, called the pager. The number was for the office. Needless to say, Xu Yuan had already returned to the county seat.
