Chapter 176 Going Home for the New Year 2
Zhao Peng took a taxi to Gao Dashan's dormitory and took Gao Dashan with him. Then, the two of them got off at the largest seafood market in Dongbin and saw that Nanzheng had already kicked at the door. Because after today, the seafood market will not open until the fourth day of the first lunar month, so more people come to buy seafood.
Zhao Peng and three others passed through the bustling crowd and took all the ordered seafood. After loading a pickup truck, Zhao Peng and Nanzheng resigned and took the pickup truck on the tall mountain.
The small cargo car was carrying Zhao Peng on the highway on Gaoda Mountain. On the way, Zhao Peng first called Ren Baojun and told him to come and pick up the New Year's goods. Ren Baojun told Zhao Peng that he didn't need it. He is now in the hospital and his father is ill. Zhao Peng quickly asked what the disease was. Ren Baojun told Zhao Peng that he had a heart attack and needed a bypass surgery.
Zhao Peng knew that the bridging operation was very expensive. He told Ren Baojun, don't worry, don't be afraid to spend money. He will arrive in Pingcheng in six or seven hours.
He hung up Ren Baojun's phone, and Zhao Peng asked the driver to speed up. In fact, without Zhao Peng, the driver has driven very fast, because he also wants to have New Year's Eve dinner in Dongbin.
Six hours later, the pickup truck arrived in Pingcheng. Because the driver was in a hurry to return to Dongbin, Zhao Peng asked Gao Dashan to take the driver to the Zhao family compound to unload the goods. He stopped a taxi and went straight to Pingcheng Central Hospital.
When he arrived at Pingcheng Central Hospital, Zhao Peng met Ren Baojun. Ren Baojun told Zhao Peng that his father was in the operating room. Zhao Peng asked how much money he needed in total. Ren Baojun told Zhao Peng that he needed a total of 50,000 yuan. Zhao Peng handed over all the cash in the bag, a total of more than 30,000 yuan, to Ren Baojun. Ren Baojun said sensibly, "My parents still have some savings and enough money."
Zhao Peng knows more about the situation of Ren Baojun's family. His parents are from waste acquisition stations. They are usually frugal and should not be rich. It is estimated that if they spend more than 50,000 yuan, they will have no money. So he had to leave all the money to Ren Baojun. Ren Baojun smiled and said, "Dapeng, if you think I'm a friend, take the money back. When I'm short of money, I will naturally open my mouth and ask you for it."
Zhao Peng knew that Ren Baojun had always been calm and knew when to do what, so he had to say, "If you don't accept it, then leave 10,000." Just think of me buying nutrition for my uncle."
Ren Baojun nodded and received 10,000 yuan.
At this time, Zhao Peng's mobile phone rang. He picked it up and looked at it. It was his mother's phone number. He pressed the answer button, and his sister Zhao Rui's voice came through the phone: "Dapeng, how's Baojun's father?"
"The operation is in progress."
"Grandpa told you not to worry. Everyone is waiting for you." Zhao Rui said.
When Zhao Peng heard this, his nose was sore and his eyes were a little wet. Once upon a time, he was the most unfilial descendant of the old Zhao family. Now the whole old Zhao family is waiting for him. Such a gap makes him unable to stand the rebirth of the second generation.
After calming down, Zhao Peng said, "Sister, you can eat first. You don't have to wait for me."
Zhao Rui, who was on the other end of the phone, lowered his voice and said, "Dapeng, what you sent back made Grandpa very happy. He said that you are very sensible and must wait for you to come back for dinner. ...Even my father didn't dare to object."
When Zhao Peng heard this, he couldn't stand it anymore. He secretly touched his eyes and said, "Sister, tell grandpa that you really don't have to wait for me."
Zhao Rui still said in a very low voice, "I think Grandpa is very serious this time. I don't think it's discussed."
"Well, when I'm sure Uncle Ren is safe, I'll go back immediately." Zhao Peng didn't dare to say more to his sister. He was afraid that he could not stop his tears, which would make people misunderstanding.
"Okay, I'll hang up first." Zhao Rui said in a low voice.
"Sister, see you later." Zhao Peng said.
"See you later."
Hanging up the phone, Zhao Peng blinked his eyes twice to avoid others seeing that he had just shed tears. Then he turned around and came to Ren Baojun again.
Although Zhao Peng tried his best to hide his excitement, Ren Baojun still saw it. He thought something had happened, so he asked, "Dapeng, what's wrong?"
"It's okay." Zhao Peng laughed.
Ren Baojun looked into Zhao Peng's eyes and said, "You seem to be crying."
Seeing that Zhao Peng couldn't hide it, he didn't hide it. He wiped his nose again and said, "Grandpa said he won't let me hurry back. My family is waiting for me."
Only then did Ren Baojun realize that Zhao Sanshao was moved to tears. He said, "Dapeng, you are also a standout now, worthy of the lint of the old Zhao family."
Zhao Peng said rudely, "Where is this? Watch it! The good show is yet to come.
Ren Baojun said slowly, "Dapeng, you have changed too much. Not only did Dashan suspect that there was something wrong with your brain, but in fact, I also suspected it.
When Zhao Peng heard this, he punched Ren Baojun and said, "You are all dogs."
"I didn't think I was looking down on people before, but now I think I'm really looking down on people." Ren Baojun said with relief.
Zhao Peng looked at Ren Baojun and said, "Low, just low. Who let you and Dashan are my buddies?"
Ren Baojun smiled shyly and said, "Dashan and I are rough people, and I can't help you."
Zhao Peng looked at Ren Baojun with relief and said with a smile, "To tell you the truth, I've always been a little worried that you will be unhappy when I ask you and Dashan to be security guards. However, you two buddies have given me a lot of face, especially Dashan. As for his temperament of pretending to be an old man, he is really safe for me.
Ren Baojun smiled and said, "In fact, there is nothing wrong with Dashan except for pretending. He has a few catties of himself, and he still knows a lot about it. He knows what he can do and can't do, but he doesn't want to admit it.
Zhao Peng nodded and said, "When I go back after the Spring Festival, I can't let you two be security guards anymore."
Ren Baojun smiled when he heard the words: "Dapeng, it doesn't matter what we do, as long as we have each other in our hearts."
Zhao Peng patted Ren Baojun on the shoulder and said happily, "With your words, I can't let you be a security guard anymore."
"Actually, I like to be a security guard." Ren Baojun said with a smile.
When Zhao Peng heard this, he said seriously, "Well, I'll let you be a security guard for the rest of your life."
Ren Baojun smiled indifferently and said, "But I guess I can't go there again in the future. My father can't leave me in the future."
Zhao Peng nodded and said, "Indeed, if there is something wrong with the heart, you can't be careless."
Ren Baojun nodded silently.
At this time, the door of the operating room opened. Ren Baojun hurried to ask about the situation. The doctor told Ren Baojun that the operation was very successful and the patient was out of danger.
Then, Zhao Peng and Ren Baojun helped the nurse send the patient to the ward. After settling down, Ren Baojun said, "Dapeng, it's okay. Go back quickly!"
Zhao Peng also felt that it was not good for a big family to wait for him, so he said goodbye to Ren Baojun and was ready to go home. Just as I was about to leave, I met a tall mountain and walked in. Zhao Peng was worried that Gao Dashan would use his loud voice again, so he pushed him into the corridor. Tell Gao Dashan that the heart patient can't stand the surprise and tells him to speak quietly.
This time, Gao Dashan was surprisingly obedient. He nodded very seriously and said, "I remember. ...Go back quickly! Your family seems to be waiting for you.
Zhao Peng nodded and said, "You stay here with the tyrant first. When Uncle Ren wakes up, you can leave."
"Don't worry about going back." Gao Dashan said.
After all the explanation, Zhao Peng left the hospital. Because it's already dark, there are no taxis on the road. Zhao Peng had to quickly run to the Zhao family compound, which was about two kilometers away from the central hospital.
Two kilometers is not far for the young Zhao Peng. He took a big step and went straight to the Zhao family compound near Nanhu, Pingcheng City.
Fifteen minutes later, Zhao Peng came to the door of the Zhao family courtyard breathlessly. Just as he was about to reach out and ring the doorbell, he saw Lao Liu push the door open. Zhao Peng said quickly, "Good job, Grandpa Liu."
"Dapeng is back. OK, come on in!" Lao Liu is very happy.
After Zhao Peng entered the door, he was very sensible and asked Grandpa Liu to leave first. He came to close the door. Originally, Lao Liu liked the naughty Zhao Sanshao since he was a child. Seeing that Zhao Sanshao became more and more sensible, he said happily, "Come in quickly. They are all waiting for you."
Hearing this, Zhao Peng laughed in a low voice and said, "I'm really sorry to make everyone wait for me."
Lao Liu whispered, "The old man has been talking about you recently. He misses you very much."
Zhao Peng took a deep breath, calmed down, and followed Lao Liu to the big villa. Lao Liu opened the door for Zhao Peng. As soon as Zhao Peng entered the door, he saw a big family talking in the hall.
When he saw Zhao Peng, Lan Ruixin was the most excited. His son's performance completely shocked the old Zhao family. Of course, she is the happiest mother. When her sensible son appeared at the door, Lan Ruixin's tears could no longer stop. During the Spring Festival, she was afraid of being too rude, so she quietly wiped away her tears of excitement.
When Tang Rui saw that Zhao Peng came back, he was the first to stand up, came to Zhao Peng and said, "Dapeng, you are back. If you don't come back, I will starve to death."
"Sister, I'm sorry, I have something to do."
With that, Zhao Peng came to the middle of the living room, bowed deeply in front of everyone, and said, "I'm sorry, I came back late."
Mr. Zhao stood up with a smile and said, "It's not too late, it's not too late, it's just dark."
"Yes, it's not too late. I'm greedy, so I'm hungry." Zhao Rui took his brother's arm and smiled.
The old lady also said, "Your grandfather said it's not too late, it's not too late."
Zhao Peng said hello to everyone: "Good grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt..."
Then, it was his turn to say hello to his father Zhao Chengyi. He took half a step forward and said, "Hi, Dad."
After saying that, he observed his father's expression and found that his father Zhao Chengyi sat there with a smile, looking very serious. Zhao Peng was relieved. He said to his mother, "Mom, hello."
"Okay, okay, you're fine." Lan Ruixin also seemed to be impressed by her son's charm, and finally lost her temper.
Then, Zhao Peng greeted his second aunt Zhao Chengzhi and second uncle Li Qing. Aunt Zhao Chengfeng's family went back to their hometown of aunt Qiu Guiguo for the Spring Festival, but they didn't come. Then, Zhao Peng greeted the closest third uncle. He was surprised to find that the third uncle seemed to be much fatter than in summer, and his complexion and temperament were excellent. It seemed that the third uncle's situation was very good.
After the elders say hello, it's the younger generation's turn. Of course, the younger generation should start with the eldest brother Zhao Hui and the eldest sister-in-law Chu Biping. Zhao Hui is very much like his uncle Zhao Chengquan. He is meticulous and always very serious. He was not surprised by Zhao Peng's performance.
Next is the second brother Zhao Huang. Zhao Huang's change to Zhao Peng is the most prescient one. He behaved completely differently from his father and brother, and he was very enthusiastic about Zhao Peng.
Just after greeting the second brother, Zhao Rui beside Zhao Peng smiled and said, "Good brother."
Zhao Rui's move made everyone laugh, and even Zhao Chengquan and Zhao Hui, who did not smile, laughed.
