However, before Zhan Fei could worry about any of this, a telegram was sent to them from home.
That day, just as Zhan Fei came back from supporting Gao Yang, he heard the captain's voice from the entrance. "Zhan Fei, are you home?"
Hearing the shouts at the gate, Zhan Fei sat Gao Yang down and answered loudly, "I'm at home." Zhan Fei then walked out of the courtyard. When he arrived at the gate and saw the captain, he was puzzled. What was the captain looking for him for?
"Captain, why are you standing outside? Come in!"
No, I'm here because the postman sent you a telegram this morning, along with a few letters from the elders who live in your home. I brought them to you." "Seeing Zhan Fei being so courteous, the captain felt that he was still sensible. Every time he delivered a letter to the group members, they were not cold or indifferent. If it wasn't for the fact that he was a captain, he would definitely not have delivered it to them.
"Thank you, captain." Zhan Fei saw four letters and a telegram. Zhan Fei knew that his family had something to talk to him about. As for the letters, his grandmothers must have made up their minds about coming over.
"Since the letter has arrived, I'll go back and have dinner first!" The captain knew that most people would want to read the letter earlier when they received it, so he didn't want to stay here for too long.
"Captain, you …" Zhan Fei took the letter and ran into the house after he finished speaking. He knew that the captain liked to drink, so he put the letter down and directly hugged a small jar of Gao Yang fruit wine. After he finished carrying the wine, Zhan Fei brought the jar of wine to the main entrance.
"Captain, I know that you are a cadre of the people and won't accept any bribes. But this is the wine my wife brewed with the wild fruits on the mountain last year. I'll give it to you to have a taste. We've troubled you quite a bit recently …"
When the captain saw Zhan Fei's sincere look, he felt very comfortable. Although he was the captain, he only had some people working in the village, and on the other hand, Kai Kai recommended them to do some work, and if you were talking about gifts, people were all poor now, who would give them gifts when they had nothing to do, plus, he was the captain, but the tickets he had were only bought during the new year, so he didn't expect Zhan Fei to take out the fruit wine his wife brewed. Although he didn't have the strength of grain brewing, but when he didn't have any wine, his craving for wine could be relieved.
"Hehe, Captain, how do you know that I have something to talk to you about?" Zhan Fei chuckled, "The few elders that are living here have written to my family a few days ago, they want their grandmothers to come live here, you know, they're from the dark 5 families, they're working in the countryside, but they're already so old. Because of their affairs, the children of the seniors have already broken off all relations with them, I feel pity for them, they say that their wife hasn't anyone to take care of her, so they want to stay here for a while.
"You little brat, I knew this jar of wine wasn't that good to drink!" The captain looked at Zhan Fei and laughed. "Let's first discuss this, since the few of them are here, we won't distribute the food. Furthermore, they don't have to work here."
In fact, this wasn't a big deal. Besides, even if they came to his village, it wouldn't have anything to do with him. Zhan Fei told himself that it was because Zhan Fei was sensible, so long as it didn't affect the village's work, then he would just pretend he didn't see them.
"Thank you, captain. I knew you were a good person."
"Alright, you brat, don't give me rice soup. Just give me some of this fruit wine when your wife ferments. I'm leaving, you don't need to send me off." With that, the captain turned around and left while humming.
Zhan Fei stood at the door and stared at the back of the captain as he left. Actually, Zhan Fei also knew that if his grandma came, there was no need to greet the captain, as long as they had a letter of introduction, everything would be fine, but Zhan Fei felt that they were not from the village, so it was better to tell the captain that the captain's authority was quite high in the countryside. Furthermore, it wasn't just one or two days they were living here, and when there were people who disliked them, the captain's existence was easier to talk to them.
"What are you doing here?" When Sun Chengzhi and the others who had just returned from work saw Zhan Fei standing blankly at the door, they patted him and asked.
"Yes, the captain just came, your family sent you a letter, I just made a deal with the captain, if the grandmothers come, the captain says that there's no food, if they want to stay they can stay." Zhan Fei came back to his senses and told the other elders what had happened.
"Really? We were worried that the captain wouldn't let them come, so we knew we were the ones being distributed. If they were to come and stay here for a long time, we wouldn't have to worry about their agreement," Sun Cheng Zhi said happily after hearing what Zhan Fei had said.
"Yes, I just sent the captain away. I've put your letter in the room." Zhan Fei answered Sun Chengzhi's question with certainty.
"That's good, now we're relieved. Now we're only worried about the food." Chu Jianguo felt better when he knew his wife could come over, but it was also about the food. With a few people here, food was even more troublesome if they didn't have enough to eat.
Don't worry, I haven't eaten all of last year's food, plus this year's food, when we don't have time to dry some vegetables and potatoes, we will definitely have enough food. Besides, we also have some corn and other things in the backyard, and if we don't have enough food, we can exchange it for some Gao Family food. As for the money, don't worry about it.
Sun Chengzhi and the others were especially excited that Zhan Fei could help them like this. They did not have any power right now, and they were still the so-called 'Black Five Family'. It was probably because of his grandfather that Zhan Fei was helping them like this.
Actually, if Zhan Fei knew that they would think like that, Zhan Fei would definitely say that they were overthinking things. In fact, part of the reason why Zhan Fei helped them was because of Gao Yang, and the reason why he helped them was because of Gao Yang. In fact, to them, Zhan Fei had extended his hand to help when his wife was happy, but since they had been together for such a long time, Zhan Fei had started to treat them like seniors.
"Alright, Grandpa Sun, don't think too much, I'm just looking at my daughter-in-law who's about to give birth. If my grandma or my mom came, they definitely wouldn't be able to stay here for too long, and if Grandma Sun and the others came, then we can rest assured when we work. If they don't come, then what about our children? Are we going to just leave them on the brick bed like the villagers?" Actually, Zhan Fei was also speaking the truth, because he knew that no matter who it was, his grandmother or his mother wouldn't be here for too long. If Grandma Sun and the others were able to come, then the child would have at least not suffered, and as for the matter of food, Zhan Fei knew that the food in Gao Yang's space wouldn't run out. If not for that, he wouldn't have cared about food, and if it wasn't for the fact that he was worried that their behavior would be discovered by others, he wouldn't have let them work all day long, and the people in the city wouldn't have gone down to work like Gao Yang.
"We understand. You can rest assured, Grandma Chu. Your family will definitely take good care of your child once she arrives. You have to know that they take care of quite a few children. Besides, there are three or four of them. Actually, they also knew about what Zhan Fei had said, but regardless of what Zhan Fei was thinking, they knew about the situation. They knew that their old partner was at home, and that not only would their old partner be worried about them, but they were also worried about their old partner's health. Otherwise, they wouldn't have such a good time of life in the city, otherwise, they wouldn't have agreed to allow their old partner to suffer here.
"That's good, you guys know that Gao Yang and I don't have anyone who would take care of children. Right now, my heart is clenching all day, and I'm worried that something might happen to Gao Yang. If Grandmother Sun and the others come, then I can be at ease."
"Alright, that's enough. Let's hurry up and enter the house and believe that Gao Yang will be waiting anxiously for us inside." As for the other things that the couple had done, it was better to not talk about them. As long as they knew what they were doing, it would be better to just help them out when they had the ability.
