Rebirth 1979: Hunting wild boars and saving educated youth

After Xu Xue and Director Xu left, Chen Feng came to Ning Yao and said sincerely, "Ning Yao, today is really thanks to you. I lent you two sets of clothes. I'll buy you new ones someday."

Ning Yao snorted softly, without even looking at Chen Feng, turned around, slammed the door and walked into the room.

Chen Feng curled his lips helplessly and was about to wipe his body with hot water to relieve his fatigue, but he heard his mother Chen Yufen calling him in the main room.

He responded and walked over, only to see his mother sitting under the dim light, her eyes full of inquiry.

"Feng'er, tell mom the truth, which of those three girls do you like?" Chen Yufen's tone was a little anxious.

Chen Feng scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "Mom, what a strange question..."

Chen Yufen sighed and said earnestly, "Teresa Teng is a huge star, far too high for us to reach. Xu Xue, on the other hand, comes from a distinguished family, her father is an official, and we're not the same type of people. But Ning Yao, you've been around for a long time, and we know her well. She's an educated youth, and although she came from the city, you've made a career for yourself now. You two are a good match."

Chen Feng was about to speak when his mother interrupted him: "Okay, don't think too much, take your time with the relationship, I know what's going on."

After saying that, Chen Yufen stood up, walked towards Ning Yao's room, gently opened the door, took Ning Yao's hand, and led her into the house.

Although the door was half-open, Chen Feng could still vaguely hear his mother's soft voice, as well as Ning Yao's occasional voice, which seemed to be a little shy.

After a while, Ning Yao was sent out by her mother. There were two red clouds on her cheeks and her eyes flickered. She glanced at Chen Feng from time to time, then quickly lowered her head, as if hiding some secret.

Chen Feng was a little confused about the situation and wanted to ask Ning Yao what her mother had said to her.

But I don’t know how to open my mouth.

Finally, I made up my mind and thought, forget it. When it comes to love, things will work out in the end. There's no need to worry.

Why should a good man worry about not having a wife?

Starting a business is more important now!

The next morning, a military green jeep rumbled to the door of Chen Feng's house.

As the car door opened, a middle-aged man wearing glasses got out and said to Chen Feng with a smile, "Comrade Chen Feng, Director Xu asked me to pick you up."

Chen Feng nodded and followed without thinking much.

The car bumped along the way towards the city, turning many ways and finally stopped at the gate of a large courtyard.

Chen Feng looked carefully and found that this was Mr. Geng’s yard!

Following the middle-aged man into the yard, we walked through several rows of lush trees and arrived in front of a small building.

The middle-aged man knocked on the door, and a gentle voice came from inside: "Come in."

Inside the house, the aroma of food filled the air, and the table was filled with food that was clearly carefully prepared.

Xu Xue sat at the table, feeling much more energetic than last night.

When she saw Chen Feng, her face flushed and she said softly, "Chen Feng, welcome to my home."

Director Xu also came out of the study, smiling broadly. He shook Chen Feng's hand and thanked him repeatedly: "Xiao Chen, thank you again. I have inquired about the situation yesterday. If it weren't for you, the consequences would be disastrous."

Chen Feng waved his hand quickly and said, "Of course, of course. Director Xu, you're welcome."

Director Xu looked at his daughter who kept moving closer to Chen Feng, frowned slightly, and said, "Go make two cups of tea and bring them to the study. I'll talk to Xiao Chen."

"Oh!" Xu Xue walked away reluctantly.

After the tea came, Xu Xue sent her daughter out to buy some braised dishes, and then started chatting with Chen Feng.

It sounded very enthusiastic at first, but as they talked, Chen Feng felt something was wrong.

Although Director Xu's words were polite, there was always a sense of distance. His tone and expression made Chen Feng feel that there was an insurmountable gap between him and this big boss.

Director Xu added, "Chen Feng, you're young and promising, and you're considered a young entrepreneur now. I support young people in pursuing their own paths. I wish Xiaoxue could be half as capable as you. I plan to send him abroad in the future... You've come once, so you've gotten to know the area. Come often in the future; more friends will open up new avenues!"

Friends? Chen Feng laughed inwardly. Why did the word "friend" sound so unreal?

Xu Xue walked into the house carrying a few bags of braised dishes. As soon as she entered, she started to get busy, setting the plates and laying out the chopsticks. Then, they sat around the dining table and started eating.

Chen Feng was not polite. Since he was here, he might as well eat.

He said something polite, then his chopsticks went straight to the tempting braised beef.

And Xu Xue also picked up some food for him with a smile.

Director Xu sat in the main seat and didn't seem to be too interested in the frequent interactions between Chen Feng and his daughter, so he simply spoke less.

Chen Feng didn't care about Director Xu's attitude.

Putting himself in their shoes, Chen Feng could understand that if it were him, he might do the same. After all, they had different positions, so naturally they would have more to consider.

Chen Feng had no qualms in his heart. After all, the production license was already securely in his pocket. To be honest, Director Xu had done nothing wrong to him.

Thinking of this, he ate even more unscrupulously. There was laughter at the table and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.

At this moment, there were several strong knocks on the door, followed by a deep voice: "Commander, we're here."

Upon hearing this, Director Xu quickly stood up and opened the door, with a look of surprise and respect on his face.

When the door opened, I saw an old man wearing a military uniform. Although it was a bit old, the aura he exuded from inside out made people dare not underestimate him.

There were several guards standing beside him, all of them stood tall and straight and were very respectful to the old man.

"Uncle Geng, why are you here?" Director Xu asked in surprise.

Old Geng smiled slightly, but his eyes were already on Chen Feng who was eating with his head down.

"Good boy, you came here to eat for free?"

Without saying a word, Geng Lao Er walked straight towards Chen Feng. His majestic and friendly temperament made everyone present look at him sideways.

Chen Feng heard the noise and looked up. Oh, isn’t that Mr. Geng?

He quickly stood up and greeted him somewhat bewilderedly, "Mr. Geng, why are you here?"

Old Geng looked at Chen Feng with a smile and patted his shoulder: "Boy, you have a good appetite. I can see you everywhere I eat! Tell me, why did you come to Xiao Xu's place?"

Director Xu saw it and was shocked. When did these two people know each other?

He was confused and pretended to be calm as he invited Mr. Geng to take a seat.

"Mr. Geng, do you know Chen Feng?"

Old Geng glanced at the situation on the table, raised the corner of his mouth, and said happily: "Chen Feng, he is my grandson!"

When Chen Feng heard this, his chopsticks stopped in mid-air.

Director Xu was even more surprised. He widened his eyes and looked at Chen Feng and Mr. Geng in disbelief.
