Wearing sixty with a male god

Chapter 30 It's the beginning of the month

Song Wenbin cut Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen's feet with a rope, and went downstairs to find Grandma Li by himself.

Xu Hengzhou walked over, and Xiang Chen was sitting on the big stool, his two short legs were hanging in the air, and he was still swaying boredly.

"What happened to the Chen family?" Xiang Chen asked Xu Hengzhou, he was not worried about anything else, he was only afraid that Xiao Hua would be implicated.

Xu Hengzhou's eyes stayed on Xiang Chen's chubby paw holding the pencil, and stretched out his hand to pinch the little meat dumpling before casually telling him about the ridiculous things about the Chen family.

Song Wenbin felt that there was no need to tell Xiang Chen about the Chen family's affairs, but Xu Hengzhou knew that Xiang Chen was not a really ignorant little baby, so he had no scruples about talking about it.

Xiang Chen frowned after hearing this: "Their family has nothing to eat, what should Xiao Hua do?" Usually Chen Fen and Chen Fang would grab Chen Xiaohua's food, so it would be even worse now.

"What are you so crazy about?" Xu Hengzhou squeezed Xiang Chen's hand in his own, turned it over and over, kneaded it twice and then pinched it again, as if he was playing with some small toy.

"Don't worry! Chen Guoliang won't be so cruel that he will starve his wife and children to death. In the Chen family, he is the only one who is a bit smart." Xu Hengzhou said casually, his hands kept moving, and poked Xiang Chen with his finger The little dimple on the back of the hand poked and poked himself to make him laugh, this little chubby paw was fat out of the hole.

Xiang Chen struggled to withdraw his chubby paw, which had been mocked miserably, but Xu Hengzhou held it tightly, he couldn't pull it out, and he didn't understand why Xu Hengzhou said that.Because in his opinion, it is stupid for Chen Guoliang to give all the food to Mrs. Chen regardless of his wife and children. If it were him, no matter how many people scolded him, he would let his family eat first.

"Don't poke my hand." He said angrily, "Why do you say Chen Guoliang is smart!"

Xu Hengzhou played with his hands and kindly explained to Xiang Chen: "The Chen family will not go hungry, and Cai Zhen's family should send back those cornmeal tomorrow. And what kind of sending back, maybe there will be more Add some to them, believe it or not?"

"Why?" Xiang Chen was puzzled. He had lived in Chen's house for so long, and based on his observations and the few words of Chen Guoliang and his wife, it could be deduced that Cai Zhen's natal mother and sisters-in-law were not easy to get along with.Such a person would spit out what he ate into his mouth?

Xu Hengzhou smiled: "Because when Chen Guoliang quarreled with Cai Zhen just now, the door of the house was open, and all the neighbors watching knew that Cai Zhen sent back the cornmeal that our family supplied to his family."

Xiang Chen vaguely understood that when he was sent to the Chen family, the news spread to both factories the next day.Cai Zhen's matter, if there is a scene at noon and another scene at night, it will only spread faster and wider, and Cai Zhen's father will definitely know about it.

At that time, Chen Guoliang's family will not be able to eat, and the Cai family will bear the notoriety of exploiting married daughters and starving their granddaughter and son-in-law to death.In this era that values ​​reputation and virtue, Cai Zhen's father may be fired from public office because of this incident. As long as Cai Zhen's father is not stupid, he will naturally know what to do.

After Xiang Chen thought it over, he immediately felt admiration, his brother is really smart, his brain can turn quickly.

"Brother, you are amazing!" Xiang Chen never hesitated to express his appreciation, looking at Xu Hengzhou like a little fan.

Xu Hengzhou was so coaxed by him, he talked a lot about sex, and wanted to show off even more, so he hugged him on his lap and said with a smile: "Come on, let's talk to you."

Xu Hengzhou asked: "Do you know why I said that Chen Guoliang is still a bit smart?"

"You just said that!" Xiang Chen said, "He opened the door to quarrel and spread the news."

Xu Hengzhou: "...This isn't smart, it's stupid."

"Huh?" Xiang Chen was puzzled.

Xu Hengzhou had no choice but to analyze it from the beginning: "What do you think about the situation at noon, if you were Chen Guoliang, what would you do?"

Xiang Chen followed his question and thought, if he were Chen Guoliang, his mother came to ask for food...

"Give her half of the food at home?" Xiang Chen asked tentatively.

"The golden mean." Xu Hengzhou commented: "The method is feasible, but there are too many troubles in the follow-up, and this approach will not satisfy Mrs. Chen, and his wife and children will complain about him."

"Then it won't work if you don't give it!" Xiang Chen said.

"Why not?" Xu Hengzhou raised his eyebrows: "Old lady Chen is just angry with him, her own son will not force him to death. Can go back to the countryside. As long as the troublemakers are not around, there is room for things to turn around."

Xu Hengzhou didn't say that, in this way, the Chen family in the countryside might starve to death a few people.

"No way." Xiang Chen wrinkled his little bun's face: "Then he doesn't care about his family in the countryside? That's not right."

Xu Hengzhou pinched his face, smiled and did not comment on his words, his Xiaotuanzi was soft-hearted and kind, he was not such a person himself, but he liked Xiang Chen like this.

"Doing this... is of course beneficial." Xu Hengzhou changed the topic: "That's why I just said that Chen Guoliang's actions tonight were too stupid, he opened the door to fight, he did it too deliberately, his father-in-law wouldn't watch it If it doesn’t come out, he is forcing him. Chen Guoliang’s actions can be regarded as completely offending the Cai family.”

Xiang Chen understood: "So if he doesn't give Mrs. Chen food, the Cai family will be the one to please?"

"Yes." Xu Hengzhou said: "Chen Guoliang has only three choices at noon today. Give half of the food, which can solve the problem but not both. If you don't give food, you will be cast aside, but if you handle it well, you can get it back. Or just like him today. What I did, I simply emptied my own food in front of Mrs. Chen, so that Mrs. Chen would not accuse him of any grievances. Cai Zhen is a ready-made target. If she hadn't slipped away at noon today, Chen Guoliang settled the matter long ago, and the Cai family should send them food tonight."

"This, this..." Xiang Chen's eyes were dizzy, why did he feel that what he and his brother experienced were not the same thing?

Seeing his appearance, Xu Hengzhou smiled and rubbed his hair: "I told you not to think so much, I will always protect you, I'll take care of these things."

Xiang Chen shook his head, trying to wake himself up.Right, what kind of person does what kind of thing, he is not smart but his brother is smart, he just needs to listen to his brother.

Although Xiang Chen was small, he had a big heart and quickly put this matter behind him.

The next morning, Xiang Chen didn't have to go to school, so he had a rare sleep in.He was sleeping soundly with the quilt in his arms when he was startled by the sudden noise and sat up.

Xu Hengzhou was leaning against the bed and secretly tidying up the space, but when he heard the noise, he turned his head to look at Xiang Chen, and then saw the child sitting on the bed with a panicked face hugging the quilt.

"Chenchen, don't be afraid! Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, brother is here..." Xu Hengzhou hugged the child into his arms distressedly, and patted Xiang Chen's back lightly.

Xiang Chen felt his frightened heart beat too fast, and after leaning against Xu Hengzhou's arms for a while, he asked dizzily, "Brother, what's going on?"

"It's the Chen family again." Xu Hengzhou's face was full of boredom. If he hadn't been able to change houses, he would have long since given up on living with this family.

"Oh..." Xiang Chen replied slowly, obviously not quite recovered yet.

Xu Hengzhou touched his face and asked in a soft voice: "Sleep a little longer? Brother go outside and close the door for you."

"Don't sleep anymore." Xiang Chen shook his head, woke up suddenly, scared away the drowsiness.

"Then get up and eat." Xu Hengzhou took the clothes Xiang Chen put beside the bed and helped Xiang Chen put them on, "I made custard stew for you, and it's still warming up in the pot."

Xiang Chen was very happy when he had delicious food, he quickly finished washing, followed Xu Hengzhou and waited for him to bring him something to eat.

Xu Hengzhou went to the pot and brought out the hot water custard to Xiang Chen, and put it on the small table for him to eat.

Xiang Chen has now developed the habit of feeding Xu Hengzhou a mouthful of something good to eat first, and this time is no exception, he took a spoonful and put it to Xu Hengzhou's mouth: "Brother, eat."

It is impossible for one person to form a habit of the interaction between two people. Xu Hengzhou, who never shared food with others, has gotten used to sharing food with Xiang Chen at some point.

He opened his mouth to swallow Xiang Chennian's spoonful of custard, and urged: "Eat it quickly, it won't taste good when it gets cold."

Xiang Chen watched him eat, and then enjoyed his breakfast contentedly.

Xu Hengzhou went out for a while, but came back not long after.After Xiang Chen finished eating the custard, he asked what happened to the Chen family.

"The Cai family has brought food." Xu Hengzhou summed it up in one word.

Early in the morning, the people in the Cai family who were rushing to the family building didn't go out, and they wished to bring the food over with drums and gongs.

The Cai family climbed three flights of stairs for almost half an hour, chatting with everyone they met, and finally mentioned that they were here to deliver food to Chen Guoliang's family.

Be sure to let everyone know that Cai Zhen's move of food to her home was her personal behavior, and the Cai family didn't know about it. Now that they understand the situation, they should send the food back quickly.

Song Wenbin went out early in the morning. Not long after the Cai family left, he came back on a bicycle that was probably new.

The neighbors who had just dispersed gathered together again. Buying a bicycle these years is the same as Xiang Chen bought a luxury car at that time.The neighbors just looked around, and those children ran behind the car, all of them were very excited.

Xiang Chen's little friend shouted at him from downstairs, Xu Hengzhou stood in the corridor looking down, Song Wenbin rode on the bike and waved at them.

Xu Hengzhou took Xiang Chen downstairs. As soon as Zhang Xiaohu saw Xiang Chen, he rushed over and flattered him: "Xiang Chen, Xiang Chen, I'll give you all my toys. Can you let me ride a bicycle?"

Xiang Chen looked at his size, then at the [-]-bar that Song Wenbin was riding on, and shook his head: "No way." It's nothing to get off the bike, if someone's child falls, he is afraid that Zhang Xiaohu's parents will find him .

Zhang Xiaohu lowered his head in frustration, he wasn't angry with Xiang Chen, the bicycle was so expensive, it was right for Xiang Chen to refuse.The big deal is that he will treat Xiang Chen better in the future, and he will do whatever Xiang Chen asks him to do. Maybe one day he will be willing to let him ride a bicycle.

Song Wenbin looked at the envious eyes of the children around him, patted his car, and said to Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen, "Come on, uncle will take you for a walk."

Song Wenbin greeted the two children to get into the car, Xu Hengzhou looked at the horizontal bar in front of the car, he was unwilling to sit in Song Wenbin's arms or in terms of comfort.

"Chenchen sits in the front, but he can't sit steadily in the back." Xu Hengzhou made a quick decision, picked Xiang Chen up and put him in Song Wenbin's arms, and let him sit on the front bumper.

Xiang Chen didn't notice Xu Hengzhou's sinister intentions, so he happily sat down in front, and cheerfully said to Xu Hengzhou, "Brother, sit in the back!"

He has never ridden on this kind of bicycle. He has two mountain bikes, but he has never tried this kind of bicycle that looks huge.And the envious eyes of the little friend next to him made Xiang Chen couldn't help but chuckle, holding the handlebar with excitement on his face.

After Xu Hengzhou jumped into the back seat, Song Wenbin rang the car bell, and the crisp bell rang, "Let's go!"

Song Wenbin stepped on the pedal, and the bicycle started to run immediately, and the children from the family building ran behind the car, laughing and making noise.

At the beginning, Xiang Chen laughed happily, and he also found it very interesting to watch the little friends chasing cars behind him.But after the bicycle bumped over and over again on the uneven road, the smile on Xiang Chen's face couldn't be maintained anymore.

Finally, when Song Wenbin rode back home after a long circle, Song Wenbin stopped the car and asked Xiang Chen, "Are you still playing?"

Xiang Chen looked at his uncle's excited face, with the expression that he said he would ride two laps immediately, and waved his hands again and again: "I don't want to play anymore."

He thought for a while, and felt that it was not good to reject his uncle like this, so he pushed his little friend: "Uncle, why don't you take the little tiger for a walk, he really likes bicycles."

When Zhang Xiaohu heard this, he was very grateful, and felt that Xiang Chen was really a brother.

"Okay, come." Song Wenbin agreed straightforwardly, and then asked Xu Hengzhou behind: "Are you still playing?"

Xu Hengzhou jumped out of the car neatly, and refused, "No."

He pushed Chen: "Let your little friend go together."

Xiang Chen turned his head and saw that Liang Liang was also watching with envy.

So he said to Song Wenbin: "Uncle, brother, don't go, let Liangliang sit in the back!"

"Come on, come up." Song Wenbin said with a smile.

The two children cheered and climbed onto the bicycle under the envious eyes of other children.

Song Wenbin waved to his two children, stepped on the pedal hard, and the car ran away smoothly.The rest of the children were still the same as before, chasing the car and running out.

When only Xiang Chen and Xu Hengzhou were left, Xiang Chen rubbed his little butt with a bitter face. Just now, when he sat on it, it hurt so much!

Xu Hengzhou suppressed a smile, and pretended to pat Xiang Chen's head without knowing it: "Why don't you play anymore? Don't you like bicycles?"

There was a blush on Xiang Chen's little bun's face, he hesitated and said: "No, no, I like it, I will ride a bicycle by myself in the future..."

If you ride by yourself, you probably won't hurt your butt.

Xu Hengzhou coughed lightly, and suppressed the laughter that had already reached his throat. He couldn't laugh, because his buns should explode if he laughed.

Song Wenbin took the children watching the fun for a few more laps, and told them to let them play with their two children more.He is like a worried old father, his little one is fine, and he has two little playmates, and his elder nephew is just like an adult, never going out to play with other children.

So after Song Wenbin came back by bike, a group of children surrounded Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen, and they all said they wanted to play with them, not only from their family building, but also from the family building next door.

Xiang Chen was pleasantly surprised and shy, while Xu Hengzhou was simply annoyed, but he knew Song Wenbin was doing it for their own good, and he would not complain about it.

He pushed away the children around him, and pulled Xiang Chen and Song Wenbin home first.

After arriving home, he first told Song Wenbin about the Chen family's affairs in the morning, so that Song Wenbin had a clue in his mind.Then I told him that he wanted to go outside.

Xu Hengzhou's "experience" is different from Xiang Chen's. He has "been a homeless child for several years" and has an independent personality. Song Wenbin has never restrained him very much.

After hearing what he said, I gave him some money and a few food coupons, telling him to be safe and come back early, and I didn't say much else.

As soon as Xiang Chen heard that his brother was going out, he immediately ran to get his small schoolbag, put it on his back and went to hold Xu Hengzhou's hand.

Xu Hengzhou patted his head, and said in a soft voice: "Chenchen and Xiaohuzi Liangliang, how about playing together? Brother will be back soon."

Xiang Chen was stunned for a moment, and said blankly: "Brother, don't you take me..."

Xu Hengzhou paused, he had already made the plan for the weekend trip, and he needed to find a reasonable channel to take out the supplies in his space.

The method has already been thought out, it is impossible to bring Xiangchen, not only because of the need to conceal the space, but also because it is very unreasonable to bring a child with him for what he is going to do.

But seeing the child's pitiful appearance of being abandoned now, Xu Hengzhou couldn't help but soften his heart again.

"Brother, will you bring you something delicious?" Xu Hengzhou knelt down in front of Xiang Chen, touched his face, and coaxed him softly.

Xiang Chen lowered his head and tugged on the strap of his schoolbag. In this time and space, his elder brother is his closest person. Since the two met each other, they have hardly been separated except during class time.Even in class, he knew that his brother was in the same building with him, and as long as school was over, his brother would come back to pick him up.

He thought that his brother would take him with him wherever he went, but only then did he realize that it was not like that.They are separate individuals, and the elder brother is not obliged to guard him all the time.

He wants to be a little tail who is inseparable, but his brother is not sure, he has his own things to do.At this time, he couldn't even cry like a real child.

"Okay." Xiang Chen lowered his head and said obediently: "Brother, come back early, I'll wait for you." You have to be good, you will be hated...

Xu Hengzhou felt a little uncomfortable, obviously he was only going out for a while, and he would be back soon, so he felt as if he had done something to offend his family.

Xu Hengzhou hesitated for a moment, why don't we take him out to play today, and let's talk about the supplies later.

Seeing that he didn't leave, Xiang Chen raised his face and showed a cute smile: "Brother, go, I'll go and play with Little Huzi."

Xu Hengzhou thought about it, there must be such a thing, so he stood up and took out all the small toys Song Wenbin made for Xiang Chen: "Okay, that brother is gone."

"Be careful." Song Wenbin warned again.

Xu Hengzhou responded and left with his bag on his back.

"Should Chenchen go downstairs to play, or bring friends to the house?" Seeing Xiang Chen's downcast expression, Song Wenbin changed the subject to make him happy.

Xiang Chen was silent for a moment, he didn't want to play now, but he couldn't make uncle worry, so he said to Song Wenbin, "Go downstairs."

Stay below, and my brother will be able to see him sooner when he comes back.

Song Wenbin sent Xiang Chen to the first floor, because of the bicycle, the two children of the Song family were like stars among the children.Especially Xiang Chen, besides the two brothers, Xiang Chen's friends had been in Song Wenbin's car.

As soon as Xiang Chen went downstairs, he was surrounded by a group of enthusiastic children, all of whom wanted to play with him, and almost got into a fight in the end, making Xiang Chen dumbfounded.

There was no other way, so Xiang Chen had no choice but to make a mediation, let everyone play together, and promised to take the car next time, one by one.

Because there were so many people, and most of them were boys, they finally decided to play the game of fighting devils, which is similar to the game of officers and soldiers catching robbers.Everyone didn't want to be a ghost, so they decided to use their palms and hands, Xiang Chen as the object of fawning, and reap the benefits of being a little red army directly without participating in the competition...

……

At this time, people don't light up lights at night, and go to bed early and wake up early.

It was just after nine o'clock when Xu Hengzhou left. He left the machinery factory and got on a bus according to Uncle Baoweiting's instructions.

Throughout the morning, Xu Hengzhou kept changing lines, looking out the window in the car, and writing down everything he saw about the city.

As noon approached, Xu Hengzhou checked that the time was almost up.Take the return bus and go back to the machinery factory.

After getting off the car, he first found a secluded place and took out a sack half filled with things.

The materials in his space can be automatically arranged in the space as long as he thinks about it.

He had prepared the sack a long time ago. It contained half a bag of stuff and a can of milk powder underneath. The paint on the outside was peeled off, leaving only the bare tin can.This is what he prepared for Xiang Chen, how could the child not drink milk?Just eating toffee is not enough.

Xu Hengzhou put a few apples and oranges on the milk powder, they are relatively common fruits, it is not easy to attract suspicion when they are taken out, and they can supplement vitamins to Xiang Chen.

A small bottle of wine was stuffed into the pile of apples, a very small bottle, it was for Song Wenbin.He has a decent style, he doesn't have any bad habits, he doesn't smoke, he only likes wine.

He told Xu Hengzhou many things in the past. It is said that he went to a very cold place when he was on a mission, and he could freeze to ice in one breath.They couldn't light the fire, so they took wine if they had comrades-in-arms, and they all relied on this to keep warm. Song Wenbin fell in love with drinking at that time.

But because of taking care of two children, and the fact that wine is more expensive, Song Wenbin never exchanged other tickets for wine tickets, and he hasn't had a drink for a long time.

Xu Hengzhou kept this in mind and bought him a bottle of wine specially.It's not that he doesn't want to give more, but it's hard to say no more. There will be a long time in the future, and there will always be opportunities.

These things added up, already filled half a sack.On the top, Xu Hengzhou put some small potatoes here and there, and stuffed some under it, so as not to protrude the shape of the milk powder can.

Many children like to eat this stuff, I don't know if other children like it, even if Xiang Chen doesn't like it, it's good food.

Xu Hengzhou stretched out the sack and looked at the things he had prepared. It was fine, only potatoes could be seen on it.

After packing, he dragged the sack and walked home.

At this time, I went back just in time for lunch. His Xiaotuanzi hadn't had any snacks today, so I just made him a glass of milk...

……

Xiang Chen was absent-minded all morning, playing games, he was the little Red Army with the worst record, and he didn't catch a single devil.After playing for a while, I have to probe to see if his brother is back.

After waiting all morning, no one was found. When it was time for lunch, Song Wenbin went downstairs and called Xiang Chen to go back for dinner.

Xiang Chen looked at the intersection, his brother hadn't come back yet.

He followed Song Wenbin home. Song Wenbin steamed two large pots of yellow buns in the morning. They were still hot when they came out of the pot, so he took a bowl for Xiang Chen first.

Xiang Chen held the bowl and ate every mouthful.Song Wenbin saw it and asked, "Don't you like this? Uncle is going to steam an egg for you."

"No, no, I like to eat." Xiang Chen quickly refused, picked up the yellow steamed bun and took a few big bites, expressing that he really liked it.

Song Wenbin knew that he was thinking about his brother, so he smiled and said nothing.

Xiang Chen ate half of the steamed bun, couldn't help but asked Song Wenbin again: "Uncle, what are you going to eat if you don't come back?"

Song Wenbin thought his worried little appearance was cute, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, he brought money and food coupons, and he can eat at the restaurant. There are so many delicious foods there, next time we will take Chenchen there as well." , can I order some braised pork?"

Xiang Chen nodded and said yes obediently.Then he continued to hold his steamed bun and gnawed slowly, thinking in his heart that if his brother came back sooner, he could skip the braised pork.

After slowly eating a steamed bun, Song Wenbin asked him, "Another one?"

Xiang Chen shook his head, he didn't want to eat.Song Wenbin cleaned up the dishes, picked out the steamed buns from the pot, and put them in the cupboard.

Xiang Chen moved a small bench and sat near the door, holding a small wooden cart in his hand, playing with it once in a while.

When Xu Hengzhou was dragging a sack upstairs, Liangliang was pestering his father to make a toy car like Xiang Chen.Seeing Xu Hengzhou struggling to drag a sack, Liangliang immediately left his father behind and followed Xu Hengzhou to help drag the bag.

Father Li was so angry and funny, he went to pick up the sack from Xu Hengzhou's hand, and sent it to his home directly.

Xiang Chen was sitting at the door waiting for his brother, but the boy's father was the one who waited first.Father Li put the bag at the door of my house, and Xu Hengzhou and Liangliang followed.

Xu Hengzhou opened the sack in front of the two of them, took out two potatoes from the bag and handed them to Liangliang.

Father Li quickly refused, Xu Hengzhou smiled and said: "Take it, just two, let Liangliang eat and play, he usually takes care of our family Chenchen."

Song Wenbin heard the movement, came out of the kitchen, and followed suit.

Only then did Li's father pat Liangliang on the back, asking him to thank him.Liangliang immediately said thank you, smiling and holding two potatoes.

After the Li family's father and son left, Song Wenbin opened the bag, looked at it, and asked, "Where did you get so many potatoes?"

Xu Hengzhou remained calm: "I passed by the supply and marketing cooperative in Nancheng and saw that the potatoes were good, so I bought some."

"That's fine." Song Wenbin picked up the bag and wanted to pile the potatoes into the kitchen.

Xu Hengzhou grabbed him, closed the door of his house, and then waved to Xiang Chen who was looking at him eagerly: "Come on, let's see what brother brought you."

Xiang Chen immediately clung to Xu Hengzhou, leaning against Xu Hengzhou, watching him grope among a pile of potatoes, and found an apple.

"Hey!" Song Wenbin saw what kind of trick he was playing, and also reached into it with great interest, and directly took out a big guy.

He turned over the bare tin can: "What is this?"

Xu Hengzhou: "Milk powder."

Song Wenbin's eyes lit up immediately, good stuff!

"From now on, you and Chenchen will drink a cup every day." Song Wenbin said, "I heard that this stuff is nutritious, and children won't get sick after drinking it."

Xu Hengzhou laughed and said hurriedly: "Uncle, don't you want to drink?"

Song Wenbin laughed: "What do you guys drink this for?"

"What about this?" Xu Hengzhou took out the bottle of wine from his bag: "You don't drink this either?"

Song Wenbin snatched the wine bottle, took a closer look, opened the mouth of the bottle and sniffed it, and said pleasantly, "You can do it, boy, how did you get so many good things?"

The tickets he gave to Xu Hengzhou were relatively common tickets, but what Xu Hengzhou got back were all rare things.

Xu Hengzhou smiled, and cleaned up the things in the bag again, picked out the fruit and put them in the cupboard, piled the potatoes in the kitchen, and put the milk powder in the bedroom.

Song Wenbin helped him tidy up, and Xiang Chen stuck behind Xu Hengzhou, following wherever he went.

After finishing everything, he went to wash his hands, washed an apple for Song Wenbin, peeled an orange, broke it and fed it to Xiang Chen.

The family of three sat down, happily eating fruit, while Xu Hengzhou fed Xiang Chen and told Song Wenbin about his "experience" in the morning.

The source of materials Xu Hengzhou fabricated was the black market.

When the circulation of materials on the surface is limited, there are usually hidden material circulation channels. The black market is a product of the current economic system.

Every city has a black market, but due to its illegality and invisible nature, it generally does not stay in the same place for a long time.

When it comes to understanding the black market, usually the ones who know the most about the situation are not the residents of the city, nor the police officers who are order maintainers, but the vagrants huddled in the corners of the city.

They live in no fixed place and wander around in the corners of the city. Their living environment often overlaps greatly with the location of the black market.

This is what Xu Hengzhou used. His "several years of homeless experience" gave him a lot of help, and he used it when he needed it.But what he said was very reasonable, it sounded true, anyway, he was fooling Song Wenbin here.

Xu Hengzhou took out his pocket and showed it to Song Wenbin: "All the money, food stamps, and industrial tickets have been exchanged, and there are two egg tickets left, and everything else is gone."

"It's okay, it's a trivial matter, and we didn't suffer." Song Wenbin waved his hand and said, "I'll get you some later."

He thought for a while, and then said: "Uncle is not saying that what you did was wrong, it's just that this matter is not very safe, you..."

Xu Hengzhou smiled and comforted: "I know, don't worry, uncle, I won't come here casually. I just wanted to go and see it today, but I happened to come across these good things by chance. If you miss it, it won't be easy to meet them. That's just a direct replacement."

Song Wenbin then nodded and said, "I know you are a sensible child, I won't say much else, the only thing is safety is the most important thing."

He knew Xu Hengzhou's character was a bit stubborn, even if he said he wouldn't let him go in the future, Xu Hengzhou would go secretly, and it would be a big trouble if he didn't dare to tell him if something happened.It's better to open up and say that he understands the situation, and he can deal with it in time if there are any special situations in the future.

"Okay." Knowing that Song Wenbin was thinking of him, Xu Hengzhou simply agreed, "I will protect myself well, and I will never hide anything from you."

Song Wenbin nodded in satisfaction, turned his head, and saw Xiang Chen sitting on the small bench, obediently listening to what they said, without making any noise.Seeing him look over, he smiled, which was painful.

"Give Chenchen milk to drink!" The cute Song Wenbin waved his hand and told Xu Hengzhou: "Go, we Chenchen have been waiting for you all morning."

Xu Hengzhou subconsciously looked down at Chen, Xiang Chen didn't expect Song Wenbin to say this suddenly, the white and tender little bun blushed, and said: "No, no, I'm playing downstairs..."

He didn't want his brother to think he was too clingy, in case his brother didn't like that.

Xu Hengzhou's eyes were bent, and he was in a particularly good mood. He reached out and pinched Xiang Chen's face, and then went to make milk for him.

Xu Hengzhou went to open the milk powder can. There were only three enamel cups for drinking water at home. Xiang Chen's was smaller in comparison, but the capacity was not small. Xu Hengzhou used these cups to make half a cup of milk for Xiang Chen.

The hot milk has just been brewed, and the sweetness is overflowing.

Xu Hengzhou let the milk dry for a while, and felt that it was not too hot to touch, so he brought the cup to Xiang Chen's mouth, and said: "It's a bit hot, I'll hold it for you, blow it on before drinking."

Xiang Chen puffed up his cheeks and blew, and then tried to taste some, it was fragrant and sweet, delicious!

"Brother, drink too." Xiang Chen pushed Xu Hengzhou's hand holding the cup.

Xu Hengzhou frowned and took a sip, then brought the cup to Xiang Chen's mouth.Xiang Chen grabbed his hand and drank half of the glass of milk in one go, before letting out a long sigh of relief and belching a little.

Xu Hengzhou wiped off his beard, let him sit and play for a while, and then went to wash his cups.

Song Wenbin had just picked up the things in the kitchen again, when he saw Xu Hengzhou coming in, he said to him: "I have something to do when I go out in the afternoon, you take care of my younger brother and let him sleep for a while, he hasn't had a rest at noon."

Xu Hengzhou said, "Okay."

After Song Wenbin packed his things, he washed his hands and went out.

Xu Hengzhou played with Xiang Chen for a while, and then took him to a lunch break.He didn't want to sleep at first, so he lay down with Xiang Chen for a while, and fell asleep by himself.

After sleeping until mid-afternoon, Song Wenbin came back after getting up and tidying up.He went to contact his former comrade-in-arms, who was also assigned to Qingjiang City and worked in the city's Armed Forces Department.

After reheating a few steamed yellow buns at noon at night, Xiang Chen's appetite was so great that he ate one and a half by himself!Then I drank half a bowl of potato soup.

Seeing Xiang Chen's belly bulging, Xu Hengzhou couldn't help but want to laugh.He felt that Xiang Chen was a very strange child. According to the information he checked, Xiang Chen's personal assets were not small, and the rent alone was enough for him to live affluently.

But he still lives well in such an uncomfortable environment. Xiang Chen can still eat those foods that are even difficult to eat in his opinion.It's not forced, it seems that his acceptance of these foods is very high, and he adapts quickly to the environment.

Xu Hengzhou thought for a moment in his heart, and gave up the idea of ​​continuing to explore.Anyway, he has no way to find out more detailed information now, if Xiang Chen is willing to tell him, he will always tell him.

After dinner, Song Wenbin went to wash the dishes, and Xu Hengzhou was assigned to check homework for Xiang Chen, both of them felt a little embarrassed.

As soon as he got the notebook, someone knocked on the door suddenly, Xu Hengzhou went to open the door, and the one who came was the Wu family aunt on the same floor, followed by many neighbors, it seemed that there were people from other family buildings.

When Aunt Wu saw Xu Hengzhou, she asked, "Where is Director Song, we have something to do with him."

It happened that Song Wenbin heard the commotion coming out of the kitchen, and seeing that it was him, he beckoned people to come in.

Aunt Wu quickly waved her hand: "No, no, just ask something, and I'll say it here."

Song Wenbin had no choice but to follow them out.There were too many people, and they couldn't even sit in the living room of his house, and there were not so many chairs.

After going out, Aunt Wu explained: "Director Song, that's the case. Didn't you say a while ago that our factory is going to bring a batch of meat? You also know that this year, the family can't get meat a few times a year. , The dolls at home can’t even squat in the toilet. So this time we heard that there is meat in our factory, we are all very happy, and everyone has exchanged some meat tickets, but this is sudden, why do you suddenly say that there is no more meat?”

"Wait a minute." Song Wenbin waved his hand, refusing what she said.He knew that the meat joint factory was going to send meat, and the factory only dared to release the news after confirming it.

Don't think it's a trivial matter. Supplies are tight at this time, especially in the past two years. Just like Aunt Wu said, there may only be a few taels of meat during the Chinese New Year throughout the year, and there is not enough stuffing for dumplings.

Usually during a festival, if you divide something more, it will be able to be published in the newspaper.Therefore, the welfare distribution of meat in machinery factories is really a big deal for people nowadays.

Now when they heard that the meat was gone, people became anxious, and gathered together to find out the news, but there was no result.

In the end, someone suggested that we should ask the leader.Song Wenbin is not the only leader in the family building, but the masses think he is the most close to the people (taking the children in the family building on bicycles), so they get together to find him.
