Wang Sanniang's husband's surname was Zhang, which was considered a common surname in Qingshan City. In the early years, several people served as officials of third rank or above in the court, but later the world changed and the court changed, and it declined. However, in Qingshan City, this surname But it never stopped.
The person Zhang Miao lives in Zhengyang Lane, North Street, Qingshan City. In his early years, he worked as a shoemaker in Qingshan City, making shoes for people. He had no children or daughters. It was not until he met Wang Sanniang that he was married. Although he has no children now, he is considered a wife. Live a happy life.
The yard is a little small, but it is very clean inside, with a row of flowers and plants planted, and the long clothes hanging on the bamboo poles are also very neat and clean.
"Dong dong dong..."
Under a small tree in the corner, a man in linen clothes was knocking on something, sometimes looking at it, sometimes knocking once or twice, very seriously.
The woman in the room came out and took out a towel soaked in cold water to wipe the sweat of the busy man.
The man smiled and touched her hand.
Both of them already have some white hair on their heads, and their wrinkles are also visible to the naked eye. They no longer look as lean as they did in their early years. Time has not spared anyone.
Chen Changsheng knocked on the courtyard door.
Wang Sanniang paused and looked up.
Zhang Miao was also stunned. When he looked at the person at the door, he realized that he didn't recognize him.
"You look for……"
Zhang Miao hasn't finished speaking yet.
But I heard Wang Sanniang call out: "Brother Chen?"
Wang Sanniang came forward quickly.
Chen Changsheng looked at her and said with a warm smile, "Long time no see, Sanniang."
Wang Sanniang looked at Chen Changsheng's appearance and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Brother Chen, what's wrong with you..."
"Oh! Nothing has changed, nothing has changed!"
"It's still the same as before, exactly the same."
Zhang Miao stepped forward, suddenly thought of it, and said, "Sister, is Sanniang talking about Brother Chen?"
Chen Changsheng nodded and said, "I've met Brother Zhang."
"Hey." Zhang Miao quickly waved his hand and said: "Wrong, wrong, Sanniang calls you big brother, I should call you brother Chen, hurry up, come in and sit down."
Chen Changsheng was invited into the room.
Zhang Miao heard Sanniang talking about Brother Chen in his early years, so he treated him with special respect and gave him all the best things in the house.
Quite enthusiastic.
Sanniang said, "Brother Chen will stay here for dinner today. We haven't seen each other for many years. It's time to get together."
Chen Changsheng nodded and said, "Chen has not eaten the food cooked by Sanniang for several years."
After hearing this, Sanniang immediately laughed and said, "I'll do it right now!"
With that said, he went to the kitchen.
Zhang Miao and Chen Changsheng were sitting together.
Pour tea for him.
Zhang Miao said: "When did Brother Chen return to Qingshan City?"
"I've only been back for two days."
Chen Changsheng paused and said: "You should call me Changsheng. This sentence, Brother Chen, sounds a bit..."
He smiled helplessly, always feeling a little embarrassed.
"Then I will call you Immortal."
Zhang Miao is a happy person. He smiled and said: "In my early years, I heard Sanniang often talking about you, Changsheng. She always talked about peace and happiness, and I will never be without you. If these two children can have Today’s achievements are all thanks to you, Changsheng.”
"I don't dare to take it seriously."
Chen Changsheng said: "Chen never taught them anything, but Ping An Ruyi strives for his own success."
"I understand."
Zhang Miao handed over the tea and said: "You don't have to be modest, Changsheng. The world was uneasy in those years. If it weren't for you and Uncle Huanglou, Changsheng, it would be difficult for Sanniang to survive, and the lives of the two children would be even more miserable. I'll give you tea instead of wine to thank you on Sanniang's behalf."
As he spoke, he picked up the cup of tea and drank it in one gulp.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng also raised his glass quickly.
The two then started chatting.
Sanniang in the room couldn't help but have a smile on her face as she listened to the conversation between the two.
She was folding vegetables while listening to their words, and her hand movements were much faster.
After a while, he went to the yard to catch a chicken.
Chen Changsheng saw this and said quickly: "This can't be done, it can't be done!"
Wang Sanniang waved her hand and said, "Brother Chen, please don't worry about it. What we eat is decided by our wife, so just have a good rest."
"Sanniang, this is really not possible." Chen Changsheng shook his head.
Zhang Miao also came forward to stop Chen Changsheng and said: "Changsheng, just sit down. This chicken is old and should be killed. Sit down quickly."
With the two of them working together, there was nothing Chen Changsheng could do.
Sanniang boiled a pot of hot water and immediately killed and shaved the chicken.
Chen Changsheng was quite helpless and could only accept this kind offer.
Not long after, four dishes and one soup were served.
After frying half of the chicken and stewing the other half, Wang Sanniang opened a small jar of wine. Why didn't Zhang Miao drink wine? Because of rheumatism, she could only drink tea instead of wine.
"Come on, come on, Changsheng, please come."
Chen Changsheng looked at the dishes on the table and said, "Chen is really embarrassed today..."
I should have known better to bring something with me.
Wang Sanniang said: "If you're embarrassed, you should be at home."
Zhang Miao nodded and said: "Exactly."
Chen Changsheng smiled and then moved his chopsticks.
While eating, Wang Sanniang poured wine again, and Chen Changsheng took two sips, which was very delicious.
He looked at Zhang Miao and asked, "I wonder how our family can make a living now?"
Zhang Miao said: "It's still my old job, making shoes for people. After a month, I will have some money, enough to eat and drink."
Wang Sanniang said: "Brother Chen, don't worry about us, he will send some money back from time to time."
Chen Changsheng paused and asked, "Have you still sent it back in the past two years?"
Wang Sanniang said: "It was sent back by someone."
Chen Changsheng nodded, and then he understood, and said: "That's good, but if there is any difficulty, Sanniang has to speak up. Even if Chen is not here, Miss Yun can help."
Wang Sanniang nodded and said, "I know, come here, Brother Chen, and I'll make you a bowl of chicken soup."
"Thank you Sanniang."
The chicken soup is very delicious.
Only a little salt is added, and the rest is the original flavor of the chicken.
Zhang Miao said panicked, this chicken is not old at all, there is a layer of chicken fat floating on the surface, it smells fragrant, and the chicken soup is even sweeter.
Chen Changsheng was embarrassed to have eaten someone else's chicken for nothing.
Chen Changsheng asked again: "Is there anything else missing at home?"
Zhang Miao said: "If you want to live forever, you can eat it with peace of mind. To say this is to say that it is divided into raw materials. It is necessary."
After hearing this, Chen Changsheng smiled helplessly and said, "It's Chen's fault, it's Chen's fault."
In fact, we didn’t talk about anything in the end.
Chen Changsheng has never lost or gained anything in essence.
But the feeling of gathering together to eat and chat is so gratifying, coming from the purest human kindness in the world.
I come and you go.
The chicken soup is very sweet.
It seemed that he was also warning Chen Changsheng not to forget something.
If the people and things of the past are still there, if you can see them, then see them.
