Chapter 479 70 Cannon Fodder Little Educated Youth (43)
Xie Jin ran back to the room and took out a photo album, which contained photos of her every year since she was born. Even the previous ten years, she had not missed any photos.When she was in the Zhou family, she saved money every year to take pictures in a photo studio and send them to her father.
When she was young, her father told her: "We have to take photos every year to record every stage of your growth. You can keep it for yourself and show it to your grandparents."
Therefore, even when she was in the northwest, she asked Wei Pu to drive her tractor to the county town to take pictures.
Xie Bingren flipped through the photo album in his hand, looking at each photo for a long time.
From the expression and body movements of Cheng Cheng's photos, we can roughly judge the child's living conditions and psychological condition at that time.It is very clear whether she is really happy and happy, or whether she is forcing a smile and wants people who see the photo to think she is happy.The clothes she wore when taking pictures and her complexion can also tell whether she is doing well or not.
This child was a little princess before she was ten years old. Her parents were with her, as well as Uncle Feng and Aunt Feng. From the age of 11 to 17, she was alone, with a forced smile. She was very thin, and her clothes didn't fit well, but she still smiled and tried to show that she was doing well. After she turned 17, she became happy again. It’s getting better and better.In the latest photo, she is surrounded by her relatives again. Her father and grandparents are both there, but her mother is missing.
He could completely imagine what she was thinking during those not-so-good years.She must be trying her best to exude happiness and not let her relatives worry about her.No matter what the situation, she always tried to think of her loved ones.
His Cheng Bao is really a good boy!
From these photos, he could probably infer what his younger brother's family had experienced in the past ten years.
Xie Bingren felt very distressed.What I learned from the staff of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office was just a bland introduction to the process. In just a few sentences, I talked about more than ten years of being criticized, being sent down, participating in labor in the northwest, and being rehabilitated and returned to the city.He could tell the staff were trying to downplay the hardships.It seemed like it was just a misunderstanding and his brother suffered a little because of it, but he's fine now.
But even if the other party downplayed it, he still felt that it was difficult enough. Now looking at these photos, those difficult years have a picture.
He knew that these were not enough to represent the hardships his brother and Cheng Bao had endured over the years.How can those real sufferings be expressed in words and photos?
In fact, when Xie Bingren and others went overseas and started a new business from scratch, they suffered a lot and faced many difficulties. It was not all smooth sailing.But as a parent, it’s okay for you to endure hardships, but it’s hard to accept your children’s hardships.It’s heart-wrenching just thinking about it.Not to mention, the hardships they endured overseas were nothing compared to their younger brother's family.
In the latest photo, his brother looks good and his happiness is genuine, so that’s good.
Xie Bingren gently stroked his brother's face in the photo, and a tear fell without warning, and he quickly wiped it away with his hand.
Xie Jin leaned on the rocking chair and squinted at the sky through the mottled leaves, pretending not to notice that he was crying.
The man did not shed tears, but he did not go to the sad place.
His father should be able to escape this beating.Looking at the uncle like this, he must be reluctant to fight.
The weather is very good today, the sky is blue, the white clouds are light, and the wind is light.The yard was extremely quiet, with the occasional bird chirping.
After a long time, Xie Bingren looked at the photos, closed the album, and held them in his arms. He couldn't bear to let them go. It seemed that in this way, he could share the hardships with his brother and niece who had suffered so much in the past ten years, and he could embrace them as they were back then. They feel the warmth given by their family.
Like Xie Jin, he squinted at the sky and chatted with her in a low and gentle voice, asking her what her usual hobbies were, what she wanted to do in the future, what she wanted, what snacks she liked to eat, and what kind of tea she liked to drink.
Knowing that Xie Jin didn't want to do anything and just wanted to be a young lady enjoying delicious food and fine clothes at home, Xie Bingren smiled happily.This simple wish was similar to that of his younger brother when he was a child.But this guy is now working hard for his children.I just don’t know if Cheng Bao can persist until the end.
"Then be a eldest lady. My uncle may not have much ability, but this little wish can still help you come true. Even if your uncle is gone, your brother and the others will still be there."
"Thank you uncle, uncle is so kind."
"No need to be polite to uncle, just tell me what you want and do. As long as you don't harm nature and don't break the law, it's within the scope of your uncle's ability. It's no problem."
Although he wanted to know the details of the previous years, these questions were not suitable to ask Cheng Cheng.Don't let your children remember those sufferings again.For her, the best thing is to let go of the past and start a new life.A happy, cheerful, sweet life.
It's too late to help her forget the past, how can she mention it again?
You can just ask your brother about these things later.
Xie Jin understood what he was thinking and was touched by his uncle's thoughtfulness. He cooperated very well with his questions and answers.
She also asked him about starting a business abroad. Xie Bingren also downplayed the hardships and only said that the family business was developing very well. At the beginning, he was a little confused and took some detours, but since the low price Once oil was discovered on a large piece of land that we bought, everything went very smoothly.
Speaking of which, luck is indeed good.
"Some in the family are engaged in business, developing family businesses, and some are engaged in academic research, just like your father. Your second uncle's eldest son is the third in your generation. You call him third brother. He has now obtained a plant I have a doctorate in pathology, and my research talent is very good. There is also the third eldest brother in the uncle's family, ranked fourth overall. He studied aeronautical engineering and should be able to get a doctorate soon. Your eldest brother and second brother are by my side. help."
Xie Jin: "..."
She is so powerful, but she is the only loser in the whole family.
Lying down became more peaceful.
When the 11:30 bell rang, Xie Jin got up and went to prepare lunch.
Xie Bingren stopped her: "Isn't your father coming back for lunch?"
Xie Jin: "I haven't come back recently. I'm too busy. I only come back at night."
"Then uncle will take you out to eat, or you can try his cooking."
Xie Jin: "You can also cook?"
Xie Bingren: "Of course I can. This is a compulsory course for men in our Xie family. You don't have to do it, but you can't do it. My uncle's skills are better than your father's."
Xie Jin looked unbelieving: "You are talking about the past. My father's cooking is delicious now. You can't compare."
Xie Bingchen's cooking skills have been improving since the original owner was a picky eater when he was a child.In the early years, there were still maids to cook for them, but later they no longer dared to use maids. Xie Bingchen did all the cooking himself.In the past few years, under Xie Jin's guidance, the company has made rapid progress.
As a man, you cannot give up easily, and the calm and elegant Xie Bingren is no exception.What's more, it would be even worse if he lost to his own brother.
"Then Bibi. Wait, I'll cook for you."
Xie Jin bent down and stretched out his hands, assuming the posture of a waiter: "Please."
The kitchen is still in the same place, and Xie Bingren is familiar with the place, so there is no need for Xie Jin to follow him.
"Don't come in. There's a lot of fumes in the kitchen. Just wait outside for a while. It'll be fine in a while."
Maybe it’s because they have never stopped missing him for more than 20 years, maybe because they think of the two men’s daily lives abroad every day, and imagine every detail of their lives at home. Therefore, although it is the first time for Xie Bingren to meet Xie Jin, But there was no feeling of unfamiliarity, as if they had gotten along countless times in the past 20 years or so. They got along intimately and naturally, and there were no barriers to communication.
What made him even more gratified was that Cheng Cheng didn't accept life at all.Also, Cheng Cheng is a child of the Xie family, and he is his uncle.
Thinking of these, Xie Bingren felt happy.
Xie Jin swayed on the rocking chair and reminded Xie Bingren loudly: "Uncle, I can eat spicy food, but don't make it too salty."
"understood."
