Meng Yan's Transformation

Dong Zijie heard that Zhan Zichuan was back, so he also ran to Zhan Yu's house to see Zhan Zichuan. He happened to meet Zhan Yu. Zhan Yu did not speak to Dong Zijie. The two looked at each other and avoided each other. Dong Zijie was afraid of Zhan Yu and hated him for giving him away, so he rarely spoke to Zhan Yu every time he saw him. Zhan Yu was afraid of contacting Dong Zijie and being intimate with him, so he came home more frequently. He was also worried that Dong Zijie's adoptive mother Ai Guizhi would be sad, and worried that the child she raised would be alienated from her and leave. (Because when the Dong couple were going back to Liaoning from Heilongjiang, Ai Guizhi cried and didn't want to come back. Dong Zijie's adoptive father Dong Deren didn't want to work as a breeder anymore. He was willing to return to Liaoning to take over his father's job and have a decent non-agricultural household job with a "iron rice bowl". Ai Guizhi was worried that her son Dong Zijie, whom she had raised for many years, would return to the Zhan family. She loved her son Dong Zijie too much and treated him as her own son and loved him like a treasure.)

Dong Zijie's memories of his childhood are rather vague, and he has been separated from his biological father, stepmother, brothers and sisters for many years. His childhood memories of his family are even more vague. When he first returned to Liaoning, because he looked very much like the children of the Zhan family, someone told him that he was a child of the Zhan family. Out of curiosity, Dong Zijie came to Zhan Yu's house. His arrival was welcomed by Yunqing and several brothers and sisters. He himself felt like meeting relatives. Seeing that his brothers really looked very much like himself, it also verified what people said that he was given to the Dong family by the children of the Zhan family. But every time he met Zhan Yu, Zhan Yu was very serious and not affectionate to him. So when Dong Zijie went to play with his brothers, he avoided Zhan Yu.

"Zijie, come here quickly. This is our third brother Zhan Zichuan. Do you remember him?" Zhan Ziqiang saw Dong Zijie greeting him warmly.

"Zijie, you've grown so big now. Third brother hardly recognized you." Zhan Zichuan walked over and patted Zijie on the shoulder and said.

"Brother Ziqiang, Brother Zichuan..." Dong Zijie shouted with shining eyes.

The brothers played at Zhan's house for a while, and Dong Zijie took Zhan Ziqiang, Zhan Zichuan, and Zhan Mengyan to Dong's house. (Zhan Zian and Zhan Zixun went to their classmates' houses and were not at home)

Ai Guizhi saw her son Dong Zijie coming back with two brothers and a sister, so she warmly entertained the Zhan brothers and asked Dong Chunhua to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy biscuits and candies. She was busy kneading dough and making pies and meatballs for everyone...

"Aunt Guizhi, please stop busying yourself and stop cooking. It's too much trouble. We'll just sit for a while and then we'll leave. I've been away from home for many years as a soldier. This time when I'm demobilized, I brought back some autumn wood ear mushrooms from Heilongjiang. Dad and Mom said that you and Uncle Dong have helped our family a lot, so they asked me to bring you some wood ear mushrooms to try. Let us express our family's gratitude." Zhan Zichuan said as he put a bag of wood ear mushrooms on the kang and prepared to leave.

"Zichuan, go back and tell your father and mother not to say thank you anymore. We are a family, and being too polite will only create distance between us. It's not right for you to take your brother and sisters away today, Zichuan. Your aunt will be sad. I like lively occasions and children. I'm so happy that you can come to see me. I just told your sister Chunhua to ask your Uncle Dong to come back from get off work early so he can have a drink of Shaoguozi wine with you to welcome you. If you leave, what will happen if your Uncle Dong asks me for help?" Ai Guizhi raised a pair of lively hands and blocked the door.

"Brother Zichuan, you can't leave. Have you forgotten? You still want to ask my father to help you buy a 28-frame Phoenix brand bicycle from the supply and marketing cooperative." Dong Zijie hurriedly grabbed Zhan Zichuan and said.

"I forgot, as long as Zijie didn't forget. You can talk to Uncle Dong for me, it's better than me saying it," said Zhan Zichuan.

"Brother Zichuan, if you leave without eating today, I won't let Dad buy you a Phoenix brand bicycle, and you will have to walk to work at the county brick factory every day." Dong Zijie said deliberately to anger Zhan Zichuan.

"Mom, I'm back. My dad said he would come home after buying some wine. He asked you to cook a few more dishes because he and Zichuan want more wine glasses." Dong Chunhua said as she put the biscuits, candies and melon seeds she bought on the kang.

"Chunhua, help mom wash the vegetables, Zijie, help mom entertain your brothers and sisters, and let your brothers and sisters enjoy the snacks your sister bought. Take out the playing cards, and you can eat while playing. Mom will prepare the meal in a while." Ai Guizhi said.

Zhan Zichuan felt that he couldn't leave if he didn't eat today, so he had no choice but to stay.

Several people wanted to help cook, but Ai Guizhi forcibly pushed them from the outer room to the inner room, causing their hands and face to stick to their sleeves and faces...

Dong Zijie pulled Ai Guihua in front of the mirror, wiped the flour off her face with a towel and said, "Mom, look at your face, you've become a little cat."

Everyone burst into laughter when they saw it.
