Two generations of military wives compete for time

Chapter 29 Brother Qian Wants to Become a Monk

Ever since learning about Professor Chen and Qian's father, everyone has been feeling a little depressed. Qian's father has always refused to do a DNA test, saying that he is a poor farmer and does not want to implicate others. Qian's father Qian Guangzong is an introverted, stubborn and low-self-esteem person, and this character trait was passed on to Qian Zuhua.

Qian Yizhen was somewhat bewildered, remembering that Qian Zuhua would graduate from university this year. He wrote to Qian Zuhua several times, urging him to come to the provincial capital to visit his grandmother, grandfather, father, mother, sister, and uncle Chen Haoyu, brother-in-law Ming Yuanhui, and niece Junhua whom he had never met.

Zu Hua’s reply was always short: “I don’t have time. I’ll talk to you after graduation.”

Since Qian Zuhua went to Guangzhou to attend university, his grandparents have not seen him. His grandmother was a little worried: "Did something happen to Zuhua? This child has been introverted, inferior and timid since he was a child. Has he been bullied?"

After hearing what her grandmother said, Qian Yizhen also became worried. She hurriedly stood up and said, "I'm going to the post office to send an urgent telegram to Qian Zuhua, asking him to come back. Otherwise, I'll go to Guangzhou to find him." Qian Yizhen hurried out.

Since Grandma Lu Jingde found out that Dad Qian might be Chen Zhuoran's twin brother, she has visited the Chen residence more often. She tried every way to get close to Dad Qian in order to persuade him to agree to do a DNA test.

Chen Haoyu, Lu Kaipu and Chen Yalu all like Lu Jingde's personality and temperament. Lu Jingde was a history teacher at the university before his retirement. He likes painting in his spare time and gets along well with them all. Especially Junhua's childish voice and naivety have become the source of laughter for the four old people.

As a result, Grandma Lu Jingde became a frequent guest at the Chen family's table. Sister-in-law Hao Xia was a little impatient: "Grandma Lu, am I not qualified as a live-in nanny? The food I cook is not to your taste? Why do you always eat at the Chen Mansion?"

"Comrade Hao Xia, listen to me. Why don't you just invite Chen Zhuoran, Li Hongmei and you to come over and eat? We can all get together to eat, and it will be lively and delicious." Uncle Chen Haoyu suggested.

"Okay. I agree. Starting from tomorrow, Comrade Hao Xia will move to the cooking position and come to help Comrade Lu Kaipu in the kitchen." Grandma Lu Jingde raised both hands in agreement.

Yuanyuan's health gradually recovered, she gained weight, her complexion became rosy, her temperament became stable, and she became more sensible. She felt very happy watching everyone's words and deeds. Qian's father Qian Guangzong also gradually got used to the life here.

After receiving Qian Yizhen's urgent telegram, Qian Zuhua hurriedly took a train to the provincial capital and arrived at Chen's house according to the address given by Qian Yizhen.

He greeted the housekeeper Li Xiaoquan and explained his purpose. Walking into the courtyard, Qian Zuhua felt a little dazed and unreal. This was the home where his grandmother Chen Yalu lived when she was a child. It was just like a wealthy family in a movie.

When Qian Zuhua was in a daze, "Baby, baby is back. Mommy misses you." Qian's mother recognized her son at the first sight, and Qian's father looked at his second son expressionlessly.

At this moment, everyone looked at Qian Zuhua, who scratched his head in confusion.

Seeing Qian Zuhua was dark, thin, and had a worried face, grandma Chen Yalu felt very distressed: "Child, you always think about things by yourself. So many people at home care about you, but you avoid them. Come here and let grandma take a look."

After dinner, grandma Chen Yalu arranged for Qian Zuhua to stay in the east wing of the second courtyard, and Qian Yiyun made the bed for Qian Zuhua. When Qian Yizhen heard that Qian Zuhua was back, he also rushed over and chatted with Qian Zuhua for a few words, and Qian Yizhen's hanging heart was slightly relieved.

But Qian Zuhua's words: "Sister, after I graduate, I don't want to work. I want to become a monk." shocked Qian Yizhen so much that she almost jumped up.

After hearing this, Dad Qian walked out of the door alone, stumbled into the night, and lit a cigarette tremblingly.

Since coming to the Chen Mansion to accompany Yuanyuan for treatment and recuperation, Dad Qian appeared indifferent on the surface, but in fact, his heart was in turmoil. The life here was very different from his life in Lijia Village.

The food, clothing, housing and transportation here are all high-end, coupled with the deep brother-sister affection between Chen Haoyu and Chen Yalu, and the natural love between Lu Kaipu and Chen Yalu. He was deeply touched.

Speaking of family affection and love, Qian Guangzong felt that he had never received, given, or experienced them in his life. Because he grew up in poverty, he had to work non-stop and live mechanically to fill his stomach. He had no time to care about family affection and love.

Dad Qian deeply felt that he was ashamed of his three children, Yizhen, Yiyun and Zuhua. Fortunately, Yizhen and Yiyun had good personalities and were open-minded. Zuhua was different. He was the second child and had been ignored since childhood. He did not receive fair care and love. He was introverted and had low self-esteem. He even wanted to become a monk. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He blamed himself for not being worthy of being a father.

Qian Guangzong, Qian Yizheng and Qian Yiyun were filled with mixed emotions and had a sleepless night.

At six o'clock in the morning, Qian's father called Qian's mother to get up and helped her get dressed. Qian Yiyun combed Qian's mother's hair and washed her face, and after getting ready, the three of them went to the restaurant to eat. Qian's father took the initiative to say to Qian Yiyun: "Second Nizi, tell your sister that I am willing to do the A appraisal." Yiyun smiled and nodded.

Qian Zuhua slept until he woke up naturally, got up, washed, and strolled to the back garden. He saw Chen Haoyu and Lu Kaipu practicing Tai Chi, followed their movements for a few times, and asked to become their apprentice and learn Tai Chi.
