Rebirth 1979: Hunting wild boars and saving educated youth

When Director Sun heard this, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Can you think before you speak, kid? You're being so cautious. This isn't the time for us to have some fun. Do you know who this old man is? Usually, the big guys in our province have to be respectful when they see him!

Especially when he saw the old man's obviously stunned expression, he immediately regretted in his heart why he didn't bring needle and thread when he went out today. He really wanted to sew Chen Feng's mouth shut immediately!

Unexpectedly, the old man put his chopsticks on the table, stared at Chen Feng and laughed.

"You're a brave boy! Normally, no one dares to stop me from eating meat. Okay, since you gave me a pair of snake gallbladders, I'll give in to you today. Come on, take away all this greasy food and replace it with a big bowl of cabbage and tofu soup. Let's have a vegetarian meal today!"

Hearing this, Chen Feng was speechless: "If you don't want to eat, then don't eat. If everyone leaves, what will we eat? I didn't even get a piece of meat!"

Director Sun was shocked and his expression changed.

He really wanted to go outside and see which direction the sun was setting.

He is a notoriously stubborn old man, but he actually listened to advice today?

After a while, the vegetable and tofu soup came up. It was indeed clear and refreshing, without a drop of oil.

Chen Feng soaked the rice in the soup and slurped it up in a few seconds, finishing the whole bowl, just like he was eating at his own dining table.

Director Sun was much more reserved. He didn't dare to eat loudly and kept glancing at Chen Feng. He was anxious in his heart: Can you be more polite, kid? What are you eating? It's like you're chewing pig food!

At this time, the old man spoke again: "Xiao Sun, you are not straightforward enough. Look at Xiao Chen. If I eat with him every day, my appetite will get better and better."

Chen Feng secretly complained in his heart: Forget it, I don’t want to eat with you every day. Either I have to stuff greasy food into my mouth, or it’s just bland vegetable and tofu soup. Who can stand this!

After dinner, the old man asked the nanny to make a few more cups of tea.

Chen Feng still looked leisurely, sitting on a small stool, holding an enamel pot in his hand, drinking tea slowly.

Director Sun sat much more properly, sitting upright on the chair, not daring to lean his back, and only sitting halfway with his buttocks. His whole body was tense as if he was wound up.

He wanted to tell Chen Feng several times, "Can you please sit properly and move to a chair? Stop squatting on the small stool. This is not your yard."

But unexpectedly, the old man took out a small stool from somewhere and placed it opposite Chen Feng. Then he sat down himself, holding an enamel pot in his hand, and drank tea face to face with Chen Feng.

Now, Director Sun felt uncomfortable. He was the person sitting at the highest position in the room. He felt uncomfortable and wanted to get down from the chair.

The old man yelled at him, "Xiao Sun, just sit still in your chair! Stop messing around, I want to chat with Xiao Chen."

When Director Sun heard this, he immediately stopped moving, but he felt so uncomfortable sitting there, as if he was being tortured.

The old man turned to look at Chen Feng and asked, "Xiao Chen, is your full name Chen Feng?"

Chen Feng nodded and said, "Yes, the peak of the mountain."

"Who else is at home?" the old man asked again.

"Just my mother and my little sister." Chen Feng said.

"What about your father?" the old man asked.

Chen Feng said calmly, "We've severed ties."

After hearing this, the old man was stunned for a moment, then he followed the topic and began to ask about Chen Feng's family affairs in detail.

Chen Feng felt a little strange at first. Why did he ask about my family?

But on second thought, he understood a little. It might be because of his relationship with Teresa Teng. After all, Teresa Teng was from Taiwan and held shares in his own company. This was no trivial matter. It was normal and understandable that the organization wanted to know about his family background.

So Chen Feng began to introduce his family situation to the old man in detail: he was an honest farmer, had a clean record, and had no overseas connections...

But what he didn't expect was that the old man's expression became more and more strange, and finally he fell into deep thought.

This made Chen Feng feel a little uneasy, and he thought: Is there something wrong with my family background?

My family has been poor farmers for three generations, and we have a good family background. Although I have made some money now, it is also due to the good policies of reform and opening up.

At this moment, the old man suddenly asked: "You just mentioned your mother, what's her name?"

"Chen Yufen, what's wrong?" Chen Feng's heart tightened.

The old man muttered the name in a low voice, his eyes twinkling, then waved his hand and said, "Nothing, I just think it's a bit strange that your mother has the same last name as you."

Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't that scary!

After asking, the old man took a sip of tea, sighed deeply, and said to Chen Feng kindly, "Xiao Chen, come and sit with me more often when you have time. I'm getting bored living alone. When I was young, I was busy fighting and never got married. Now I have no children around me. Now I just want to find someone to talk to."

Upon hearing the old man's words, Director Sun's body shook violently and he almost slipped off the chair. The shock in his heart was simply indescribable.

He has been dealing with this old man for a long time and knows the story behind him very well. This old man is a well-known figure who has fought in many battles throughout his life and made great military achievements for the country and the people.

But then again, he was also notoriously weird in temper. He was as stubborn as a bull and wouldn't listen to anyone. The older he got, the more withdrawn he became. He liked quietness and hated being disturbed the most.

Now, he actually took the initiative to invite Chen Feng, asking him to come over and sit with him more often when he was free. Seeing the kindness on his face, Director Sun even wondered if he had come to the wrong place today.

However, Chen Feng resonated with the old man's words.

When people get old, they can’t avoid feeling lonely.

Although he is young, the loneliness brought about by the time travel in his soul is unforgettable.

All relatives and friends have become people in another world and will never be seen again. Most people cannot understand that feeling, which made him empathize with the old man.

Chen Feng said, "Okay, I'll come and chat with you when I have time. I like the tea you have here."

When the old man heard this, he laughed out loud: "Good, good, good!"

After laughing, the old man asked about the Teresa Teng incident again.

Chen Feng thought to himself, as expected, his relationship with that Taiwan celebrity was the key.

So he recounted the entire story word for word, clearly stating the cause and effect, the whole process, and all his considerations at the time.

This kind of thing does not allow for any ambiguity. You must not try to be clever, otherwise if a bomb goes off one day, it will be a big trouble.

The old man didn't expect Chen Feng to tell such details. Although he had read the general outline of the matter in the newspaper, he still knew a lot of the hidden secrets behind it after hearing Chen Feng's personal account.
