That day, after the family had breakfast, Sun's father went to work in the factory, and Sun Qianwei also went out to do odd jobs as usual.
Sun Qunchao was sitting on the kang, coaxing his sister Sun Xiaoning to play, while Sun Xiaoli was helping her mother knit woolen pants.
Then suddenly I heard a knock on the door outside:
"Is this Sun Ganchao's house?"
Upon hearing this, Sun's mother put down the stick and needle in her hand, looked at her youngest son and asked, "Who are they? Are they Bingkun and the others?"
"I don't know either, but it shouldn't be Bingkun and Guoqing. If they had come in earlier, these guys wouldn't have the good habit of knocking on the door~" Sun Qianchao replied.
After saying that, he got off the kang and put on his shoes: "I'll go take a look~"
As a result, when Sun rushed to the outhouse, he opened the door and saw the person outside. He was instantly shocked and said:
"Brother Fan, why are you here~"
It turned out that the person standing outside the door was Wu Pingfan, holding many things in his hands. When he saw that it was Sun Qunchao who came out.
Then he followed the excuse he had thought up before and said with a smile on his face: "Catch up, it's almost the Chinese New Year, I'm coming to my house to wish my uncle and aunt a happy New Year~"
Of course, Wu Pingfan was definitely a drunkard and did not care about drinking. New Year greetings were just a pretext, and seeing Miss Xiaoli was the main purpose.
Sun Qianchao was confused for a moment. He didn't seem to have a good relationship with him. Why are you here to pay your respects?
Although he was a little confused, he was here after all. In the Northeast, it is important to welcome him at the door, so he was welcomed in warmly.
"Come in quickly, Brother Fan. Please forgive me for the poor conditions at home!" Sun Qianchao said while leading people inside.
Wu Pingfan even joked after hearing this:
"Catch up, you really think of me as a yameni. It's not like you don't know my situation. My home three years ago was not as good as here~"
After arriving at the big house, Wu Pingfan saw Miss Xiaoli at a glance, and he was stunned for a few seconds.
But he quickly responded: "Auntie, Sister Xiaoli, I am a classmate who is catching up. It's the Chinese New Year soon, so come and see you~"
Grandma, who was knitting woolen pants, raised her head when she heard this, and said with a smile: "My child, it's cold, take off your shoes and get on the kang~"
"You said you did too, so just come and bring anything else~"
Sun Xiaoli also put down the wool in her hand, got off the kang and put on her shoes. She had a good memory. Although she had only met Wu Pingfan a few times, she still recognized him.
Because he has a very distinctive figure. After all, there are very few fat people in this era, and there are even fewer people like Wu Pingfan, who weighs nearly 200 kilograms.
Sun Xiaoli also had a cheerful personality. She walked over and said calmly:
"You are the ordinary one, right? I remember that you had the best relationship with our second super team in the past few years. Just give me the things. Don't buy such expensive things next time~"
When Wu Pingfan handed it over, he accidentally touched Sun Xiaoli's hand, which made him feel numb in his heart.
At this time, Sun Qianchao also walked in. He had just closed the door behind him.
He introduced directly to his family: "Mom, this is Wu Pingfan, my classmate in junior high school. This time it's his family who helped me~"
Sun's mother immediately reacted when she heard this. She came from the old society and was naturally afraid of officials. In addition, her father had just finished arranging things for her family.
Thinking of this, grandma became even more enthusiastic: "My child, I have to thank you this time. I won't be able to leave for a while, so I will stay at home to eat, and my aunt will stew sauerkraut for you!"
"Then I'll trouble you, ma'am~" The smile on Wu Pingfan's face became even brighter.
He has been secretly looking at Sun Xiaoli. For some reason, he feels that she is a little prettier than she was a few years ago.
So Wu Pingfan secretly made a decision in his heart. He must be the brother-in-law of his old classmate in this life. Even Jesus can't object, I said so!
Sun Qianchao, who was standing aside, was a little surprised, because Wu Pingfan was very shy last time at Wu's house, and sometimes he didn't even dare to say anything. Why did he agree to stay for dinner?
But there was no time to think too much, because grandma spoke.
"Xiao Li, hurry up and get two sauerkraut, and then bring the meat left over from last time to the house to melt it~"
"Er Chao, put on your clothes and go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a few bottles of soda. By the way, go to the lumber factory to call your dad back and tell him that our family is here. If we meet your brother, let him He's coming back too."
"I know, Mom, I'll go right away~" After saying this, Sun Qianchao went to the back room to put on his cotton-padded jacket.
When Wu Pingfan saw this, he quickly said: "Auntie, there's no need to go to such trouble."
"What am I? (qie), you don't know my relationship with catching up. When we were in school, we were very tough, almost like wearing a pair of pants~"
"Just listen to my aunt on this matter. His dad has always wanted to thank you in person. If he knew you were coming and I didn't call him, he would probably blame me later~"
Although Grandma Sun has been out of work and taking care of the children at home, she can still chat a few words.
Sun Qianchao, who was wearing clothes in the back room, was getting more and more confused. Why did Wu Pingfan always talk in the same way? Could it be that he was just pretending at home that day?
In fact, what Sun Qianchao didn't know was that Wu Pingfan was not pretending at home, but because he was an only son, Lao Wu had been very strict with him since he was a child, so he was afraid and couldn't let go in front of his father.
Sitting here on the Kang in the big house, Sun Xiaoning was extremely happy. It had only been a few days and he had already drank soda twice, and he also had meat to eat.
So this time there was no one to hug me. I got off the kang by myself, put on my shoes, and ran into the back room happily:
"Second brother, I'll go with you too~"
This shabby house is not soundproofed. Before Sun Qianchao could reply, Sun's mother, who had experienced the soda incident last time, scolded directly in the big house:
"Where are you going? Come back quickly, you little brat. I don't know how petty you are. You spend money every day. Look, I won't cut my butt off for you when I turn around!"
This frightened Sun Xiaoning, and tears fell out immediately, and she didn't dare to cry out.
Sun Qunchao relented at that time, leaned down and said softly: "Okay, don't cry. Second brother will come back and bring you some sweets, okay~"
"Yeah~" Sun Xiaoning nodded aggrievedly.
After that, I didn't dare to go back to the big house, so I just sat there pitifully on the kang, for fear that my little butt would suffer.
After Sun Ganchao put on his clothes, he passed by the big house and said to Wu Pingfan with a smile:
"Brother Fan, sit down first, I'll be back soon~"
"You don't need to buy too much to catch up. I've brought all the wine and everything~" Wu Pingfan warned with a smile.
After Sun Qunchao left home, he went directly to the Red Star Lumber Factory. Because his father was a fourth-level material cutter, he was somewhat weak in the factory.
There was no need to register anything, I just said hello and walked in. After all, it was a lumber factory, not as strictly controlled as a steel factory or something like that.
After entering, he learned through questioning that his father happened to be in the workshop director's office. Sun Ganchao had an idea and walked over and knocked on the door.
After that, without waiting for the person inside to say anything, he opened the door and went in:
"Dad, my mother wants you to go home~"
Sun Guofu here was sitting there talking to the director, but he stood up immediately after hearing his son's words.
Because he knew that if his wife had nothing to do, she would not let her son come to the work to call him.
He asked anxiously: "Er Chao, did something happen at home?"
In fact, Sun Qianchao also broke into the office on purpose because he had something to say in front of the workshop director.
