Chapter 94 Why call mom first? !
The whole family sat neatly on the sofa in the living room. You looked at me, I looked at you, and our eyes asked who would speak first.
"I have something to say." After a moment of silence, Shen Zhixian raised his hand weakly.
"Speak." Dong Wushuang said.
"Can I have breakfast first? My stomach is growling with hunger."
Shen Zhixian looked at the various Chinese breakfasts on the coffee table and swallowed silently.
It was a hot day, the soy milk was still steaming, and the aroma of the meat buns was tempting my nose.
The eldest brother has returned home, and the family is going to have dinner together.
"Dad, Mom, can't we talk while eating?" Shen Zhixian asked. There was no rule in the family that one should not talk while sleeping or eating.
"I think what Lao Si said is right. Man is made of iron and rice is made of steel. If you don't eat, you will be hungry. Let's go to the restaurant to eat."
Dong Wushuang showed his kindest smile and asked Zhan Xinyue beside him: "Xinyue, what do you like to eat?"
Since they could find out that Sheng Tunan was their son, they could certainly find out the name of their daughter-in-law as well.
Here, Shen Min'e also smiled and asked his eldest son: "Tunan, what do you like to eat? You choose first."
"Yes, big brother, big sister-in-law chooses first." Three younger brothers and one younger sister said in unison.
Over the years, my parents would talk about my eldest brother whenever they were at home. Every October 10th, the family would prepare a large table of delicious dishes and a bowl of longevity noodles to celebrate my eldest brother’s birthday.
The younger brothers and sisters knew clearly that their eldest brother was 25 years old this year, and they knew that when he was stolen, the swaddling clothes he was wrapped in had the words "Tunan" embroidered on them, which were embroidered stitch by stitch by their deceased grandmother.
Mom and Dad would also talk about the appearance of my eldest brother. As a newborn baby, his facial features were already deep, very much like my grandfather when he was young. His eyes were a light blue, the same color as the second son Shen Peifeng's. Under the light, his eyes seemed to be filled with stars.
Of the five children in the Shen family, only the eldest and second child inherited their mother's eye color, while the others have pure black or dark gray eyes. The second and third children inherited their mother's skin color, which is so white that it won't get tanned even by the sun.
Over the past twenty years, Shen Min'e and Dong Wushuang have never forgotten their eldest son and have always believed that he is still alive. They often talk about him at home, causing his younger brothers and sisters to subconsciously believe that their eldest brother has just gone on a long journey and will return home for a reunion one day.
Therefore, although it was the first time they met their eldest brother today, the younger brothers and sisters did not feel strange. In their imagination, their eldest brother was just like Sheng Tunan.
Tall, tough, handsome, and with a strong aura!
"I'd like to have soy milk and fried dough sticks, thank you." Zhan Xinyue said with a smile. She didn't call her parents, so Sheng Tunan must be the one to call them first.
"I'm fine with anything." Sheng Tunan didn't shout. After all, at this moment he didn't know how the Shen family confirmed his identity.
It would be so embarrassing if you make a mistake!
"Okay," several people moved to the restaurant. Dong Wushuang gave soy milk and fried dough sticks to Zhan Xinyue, while Shen Min'e put steamed buns, steamed buns and rice porridge on Sheng Tunan's table.
Shen Zhixian laid out the cold dishes and everyone started eating.
However, there were three soldiers at the table, all of whom had big appetites, plus Shen Zhixian, who had just returned from abroad and had not had Chinese food for a long time and had already started wolfing down his food. This amount of food was obviously not enough.
"I'll go cook some noodles and wontons." Dong Wushuang said.
"Mom, let me help you." Shen Fuyao also stood up.
There were small wontons that the chef had packed yesterday in the Snow Flower brand refrigerator, and there were noodles in the cupboard. Everything was ready, and the mother and daughter moved quickly and cooked the noodles and small wontons. They divided them into eight bowls of wonton noodles, and topped each bowl with a golden fried egg.
The twins smelled the aroma and went into the kitchen, helping to bring the wonton noodles to the dining room.
It was a hot day, and the wonton noodles were too hot to eat. Everyone was already half full and not hungry anymore, so we just started talking.
Shen Min'e started: "Wushuang, it's not that I intentionally hid it from you, but we've been disappointed too many times over the years, and I'm afraid it's another false alarm, so I decided to investigate first. If I'm sure, I'll definitely tell you the first time."
Dong Wushuang did not refute. For 25 years, the couple had never stopped looking for Sheng Tunan. Every time someone provided a clue, they rushed over happily, but none of them was their son.
"Dad, when did you start investigating?" Shen Zhiyan asked.
"Tunan and Xinyue saved me. When I regained consciousness in the hospital, I called Commander He and asked him to help investigate."
"Tunan, do you remember? I woke up in the car and saw that your eyes were the same as Lao Er's. I thought you were him. You called Pei Feng's name. Then I woke up and found out that your name was Tunan. Combined with your appearance, I guessed that you were most likely my son."
Later, Commander He sent someone directly to the Changhong Brigade. After a secret investigation, they found out that Sheng Tuanan was indeed picked up by the Sheng family.
"Tunan, is your swaddling clothes still there?" Shen Min'e asked.
"Yes." Sheng Tunan nodded excitedly.
"Investigators told me that when your Grandpa Sheng brought you home, many people saw it. A sharp-eyed teacher saw the word Tunan and thought it had a good meaning, so he suggested that Grandpa Sheng name you Tunan."
"Tunan, mom and dad, as well as your brothers and sisters, have finally waited for you to come home."
Shen Min'e stood up suddenly and hugged her eldest son who had been lost and found again, tears already flowing uncontrollably.
Crying is easily contagious, and for a moment, everyone was crying with joy.
Zhan Xinyue also began to wipe away her tears secretly. In her previous life, she did not marry Sheng Tunan, Sheng Tunan did not leave the army, and did not save Shen Min'e.
In his previous life, Shen Min'e died at the hands of traitors and mercenaries. He didn't know about Sheng Tunan's existence until his death. Therefore, Sheng Tunan missed the first chance to find his biological parents.
"Tunan, this is your lover Xinyue. She is so beautiful."
The family cried for a while. Dong Wushuang wanted to be a good mother-in-law, so she kept an eye on her beautiful daughter-in-law, fearing that she would feel uncomfortable.
"Yes." Sheng Tunan looked at Dong Wushuang, whose facial features were 30% similar to his own. He opened and closed his lips several times before finally shouting, "Mom, Xinyue is my love."
Dong Wushuang was so surprised that he couldn't believe his ears. His blue eyes widened. It took him a long time to react. He happily responded loudly: "Hey!"
"Xinyue, wait a moment." Dong Wushuang excitedly ran to the bedroom and started looking for cash.
Shen Min'e looked at his wife's cheerful back, lowered his head and pushed his glasses.
The moment Shen Min'e lowered his head, Zhan Xinyue keenly noticed the restrained grievance in his eyes.
How can I not feel wronged?!
It was Shen Min'e who saw her eldest son first, so why did Sheng Tunan call her mom first?!
Academician Shen felt wronged, but he didn't say it.
Zhan Xinyue touched her lover's hand and gave him a look.
Sheng Tunan immediately understood what his wife meant and shouted to Shen Min'e: "Dad!"
Although a little unfamiliar, the tone was high. Shen Min'e was delighted and immediately looked up and hugged Sheng Tunan again, "Okay, okay. Tunan, welcome home!"
The four younger brothers and sisters also gathered around, calling "big brother" and "big sister-in-law" in a very energetic manner, and introduced themselves at the same time.
The second child, Shen Peifeng, is 23 years old this year and is the most talented mathematician in HUST.
The third brother, Shen Fuyao, is 21 years old this year. He has a quick mind and strong professional skills. He was promoted as the youngest section chief in the military region.
The fourth child, Shen Zhixian, is 19 years old this year. He went abroad to study at the age of 16, specializing in DNA technology. This time, he was brought to the headquarters by Shen Min'e because Shen Min'e was afraid that his eldest son might not believe him, so he asked the fourth child to take blood for DNA testing in front of him!
The fifth brother, Shen Zhiyan, is a fraternal twin with Shen Zhixian and a special forces soldier in the army. He is very strong!
"Brother, sister-in-law, you have met my girlfriend, right? She sent me a telegram telling me that you look a lot like grandpa."
The telegram arrived a long time ago, but Shen Zhiyan had been in closed training in the deep mountains and forests these days. He returned to the army today and hurried back after seeing the content of the telegram.
"Is Yaqin your girlfriend? She is very beautiful and cute." Zhan Xinyue praised.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Shen Zhiyan smiled sweetly, "She's very nice, but a little willful. This time, just because I said that plain rice dumplings are better than red bean rice dumplings, she ran to the island alone."
Zhan Xinyue raised her eyebrows. Shen Min'e had passed away in her previous life, so Shen Zhiyan definitely wouldn't be in the mood to argue with He Yaqin, and He Yaqin wouldn't run away when her boyfriend's father passed away.
If she hadn't gone to Huanyu Island, she wouldn't have met Sheng Tunan.
"Second brother, third brother, how do you know Tuanan is your eldest brother?" Shen Min'e asked.
"Fuyao told me." Shen Peifeng replied.
Shen Min'e looked at his only daughter, and Shen Fuyao smiled: "The report letter passed through my hands before it was handed over to Commander He."
"I saw Tunan's name on it and he said his eyes looked like a foreigner, so I made a guess. Then two days ago, the investigation results sent by the people who went to the Changhong Brigade to investigate also had to go through my hands."
"It said there was a swaddling cloth with the word Tunan embroidered on it, and there was also a small orchid embroidered on it. That was my grandmother's habit. When I saw it, I told my eldest brother and mother."
What Shen Fuyao said was a matter of course. She was the section chief. Unless it was a top-level encrypted file, it had to be reviewed by her and only handed over after ensuring the safety of the letter. It was not against the rules for her to read the report letter and the investigation results.
Zhan Xinyue understood clearly that in her previous life, because she did not marry Sheng Tunan and had no one to follow the army, Yan Moli was not jealous to the point of going crazy, so she did not write a letter of denunciation.
At this point, Sheng Tunan lost all chances of being discovered by his relatives.
In this life, fate took a turn, Zhan Xinyue married Sheng Tunan, and everything became different. Sheng Tunan was discovered by his father, sister and brother!
"Xinyue, it's great to have you!" Sheng Tunan also realized this and leaned close to Zhan Xinyue and whispered.
"I see," Shen Min'e nodded and continued, "This time it's all thanks to Grandpa Yaqin. Tomorrow while everyone is here, let's invite him to our house for dinner."
After guessing that Sheng Tunan was his son, Shen Min'e wanted to go to Huanyu Island as soon as possible.
At this time, Yan Moli's letter of complaint arrived. After seeing the contents of the letter, Commander He knew that the person who wrote the letter of complaint had wrongly accused Sheng Tunan.
After all, there was no substantial evidence. Commander He simply played along and asked Zhu Haoran to bring Sheng Tunan back to the capital.
"Dad, I have a day off tomorrow. Yaqin will be back tomorrow. I will pick her up at the station and bring her home for dinner."
Shen Zhiyan said that the two families are neighbors, He Yaqin and Shen Zhiyan are childhood sweethearts, and they officially started dating last year. Both families are very supportive.
"Okay." Shen Min'e nodded.
At this time, Dong Wushuang came out with a red envelope and a big bag of things.
"Xinyue. This is given to you by mom. I hope you and Tunan will live happily ever after."
Dong Wushuang handed the red envelope to Zhan Xinyue, which looked very thick. Zhan Xinyue subconsciously looked at Sheng Tunan. It was the first time for her to meet her lover's parents in her two lives. She was not sure whether she could accept the red envelope directly. Besides, Dong Wushuang gave too much.
Sheng Tunan nodded, this was a gift from his mother.
"Thank you, Mom." Seeing her lover nod, Zhan Xinyue didn't hesitate and took the red envelope with both hands with a smile.
"Yeah." Dong Wushuang agreed happily and took out the gifts from the big bag one by one.
"Tunan, this is your first birthday present." Dong Wushuang took out a rattle and shook it in his hand.
"This is a present for your second birthday," Dong Wushuang took out a pair of tiger-head shoes.
The three-year-old received a paintbrush, the four-year-old received a picture book, and every year thereafter, the gifts became more and more expensive. The eighteen-year-old received a Rolex watch. Dong Wushuang took out the watch and put it on Sheng Tunan’s hand.
“This is your coming-of-age gift. Your grandpa sold a ginseng to buy it for you.” After Dong Wushuang put the watch on Sheng Tunan, he slapped his head.
"Look at my memory. How could I forget to tell your grandpa about such a happy thing today?"
Dong Wushuang ran to the study room in a hurry, saying as he ran: "I'm going to call Changshan Commune and ask them to tell your grandfather this great news."
"Brother, we have also prepared a birthday present for you." The younger brothers and sisters rushed back to their rooms.
Of course, they didn't have that many gifts. For example, the first gift Shen Peifeng gave to Sheng Tunan was a painting of four boys and one girl that he drew when he was six years old.
The third, fourth and fifth children all started preparing birthday gifts for their eldest brother when they were eight years old.
There are all kinds of weird things.
The fourth child even took out a five-nut mooncake, because the Mid-Autumn Festival that year fell on October 10th in the Gregorian calendar.
"Brother, look, the five-nut mooncakes are not spoiled yet." Shen Zhixian said in surprise.
"But you can't eat it. It doesn't look bad, but I'm afraid you'll get a stomachache if you eat it."
"Yeah." Sheng Tunan nodded with a smile, but his eyes were filled with tears.
It feels good to have family.
Shen Min'e also came out of the house. He lived in the Gobi Desert all year round, where there were no department stores. His gifts were letters to his son, filled with longing and fatherly love.
Sheng Tunan took the letter and was already in tears. He hugged his father excitedly. The 25-year-old Captain Sheng, a real man who never shed tears even when he was hurt, lay on Shen Min'e's shoulder and cried like a child.
After showing the gifts, it was already half past ten in the morning. The chef came back from buying groceries, and Dong Wushuang immediately introduced happily, "Master Chen, my eldest son has returned home with his daughter-in-law."
Master Chen was also happy and said that there would be a snack at noon and he welcomed them home.
Shen Min'e knew that Sheng Tunan and Zhan Xinyue were from Hunan Province, so he ordered a few Hunan dishes. Chef Chen nodded, indicating that they were very simple.
After arranging the meals, Dong Wushuang took Sheng Tunan and Zhan Xinyue to the room on the third floor.
