Chapter 2503 Song Yunhui's Apology (Two in One)

When we got near the house, we saw from afar on the tractor that there were several people standing in front of the Song family’s door.

Song Yunhui, who had been silent before, immediately stood up from the car bag and waved his hands happily as if he had regained his childish innocence.

"Mom, Dad, Sister~"

"Xiaohui!" Song Yunping ran over without waiting for the tractor to stabilize.

"Sister, slow down!"

Although Song Yunhui said this, he still couldn't wait to jump off the truck. Seeing his sister's rosy face, he finally let go of his worry.

God knows, when he was on a business trip some time ago, he received a call from home saying that his sister was in the hospital due to premature birth. His heart was already flying back home, and he even wanted to ask for leave from his leader at that time.

"Are you... okay?" Although I was relieved, I still asked again.

"I'm fine. It's your brother-in-law who's making a fuss. I had to stay in the hospital for more than a month when I was perfectly fine. Look, I've gained more than 10 pounds!" Song Yunping said as she rolled her eyes at her husband.

In this regard, Lei Dongbao, who took the luggage bag off the truck bed, could only scratch his head.

"Mom and Dad, you... are all fine!"

"Okay~" Song's father had been accustomed to being silent for so many years. When he saw his son come back, he just smiled and continued to puff on his pipe.

But Song's mother felt sorry for her youngest son. Seeing that he was thinner than the last time he came back, she burst into tears.

"Xiaohui, why are you losing weight again?"

"Mom, how could I have lost weight!" Seeing his mother crying, Song Yunhui quickly changed the subject and looked at the fat baby in her arms.

"This is... Xiao Mingming?"

"Come here, Xiaohui, hug your eldest nephew!" Song Yunping took her son directly from his mother's arms, and then put him into his brother's hands without saying a word.

"Oh~" Song Yunhui was in a panic and held his nephew in an unskilled posture.

Looking at him blowing bubbles at herself, a smile appeared on her face.

From north to south, there is one inevitable part of returning home, and that is distributing gifts.

"Dad, these are the clothes from our factory!" After drinking the egg-soaked water that his mother carefully prepared, Song Yunhui took out two blue work clothes from his bag, with the Jinzhou Chemical logo printed on the chest.

Work clothes are very fashionable these days, especially those worn by big factories.

Song Yunhui usually lives frugally in the factory. He is reluctant to throw away clothes even when they are worn out. He just sews them up and continues to wear them, just to be able to bring a few pieces back home.

Look, Song's father's dark face showed a smile, but after a while, he put it back.
He said, "Xiaohui, the clothes I wear while working are wasted. I'll leave one for your brother-in-law and you can take the rest back!"

"That's right. Your dad works all day. Isn't this all wasted?"

"Come on, come on, take the rest back and wear them!" After leaving one piece for her son-in-law Lei Tongbao, Song's mother put the rest back into the bag.

"No, no, no, Dongbao has clothes, so let Xiaohui take them all back. He has lots of used clothes working in the factory!" Song Yunping put that one back as well.

Song Yunhui disagreed.

"Dad, I brought it back especially for you. I have clothes to wear at work!"

After much pushing and shoving, in the end, only one item was left for Lei Dongbao and Song's father.

"Sister, this is to buy you some vanishing cream, and some milk powder for the baby!"

"Xiaohui, why are you spending money recklessly again?" Song Yunping glared at her brother.

"Hehehe~" No one could have imagined that the decisive Song Yunhui in the future would show a childlike smile at home.

"Mom, this is a scarf for you. Also, since you have been having leg pain, I asked the old doctor in our factory to prescribe two pills of medicine. Let's try them out and see if they work. If they do, we'll send them back!"

"What are the remaining things? They are food. Don't be so reluctant to give them up!"

"Your sister is right. Don't spend money recklessly even if you have a job. It's fine to be at home with your dad!" Song's mother smiled kindly. She was thinking of leaving some milk powder and other things for her daughter, and letting her son take the rest back when he left.

Lei Dongbao held his eldest son in his arms without saying a word, as he didn't want to disturb the family reunion.

The dinner was particularly sumptuous.

Although Song's father was a taciturn person and didn't say a few words to his son, he still drank two more glasses of wine during the meal.

As the saying goes, "It's not the wine that makes you drunk, it's the people who make you drunk." Seeing that all his children were doing well, he turned to look at his eldest grandson in his wife's arms. His face, which had been dark due to so many years of hard work, was now glowing red.

"Xiaohui, have a couple more drinks with your brother-in-law. I...I'll go into the house and lie down for a while!" After saying that, Song's father took his pipe, stood up, staggered back to the house.

"Hey, Dad, slow down!" Song Yunhui was about to get up and go over to support him.

"Your dad is drunk!" Song's mother also had a smile on her face. "You and your brother-in-law can eat here. I'll go see your dad!"

"It just so happens that little Mingming is sleepy too!"

The weather was hot, so the few of them had their meal outside. At this time, the temperature gradually became cooler as the sun went down, and they could feel the slight coolness brought by the breeze.

After a while, Song Yunping stood up and said, "Dongbao, don't let Xiaohui drink so much. I'll make some hangover soup for you!"

At this time, there were only two people left at the dinner table.

"Xiaohui, your sister gave birth prematurely..." Lei Dongbao was about to confess.

Because the old couple had concealed something before, they only said that Song Yunping had a premature birth, but did not say what caused the premature birth.

"Okay, I know everything!" Song Yunhui said expressionlessly.

"Lei Dongbao, be nicer to my sister in the future, otherwise... humph!"

Pretty tsundere.

"Don't worry~"

Lei Dongbao didn't ask him why he knew that. His brother-in-law was very smart and was able to get into university by self-studying high school courses. He probably noticed something was wrong as soon as he came back.

He can never hide anything from his own daughter-in-law!

"How are you doing in Jinzhou Factory?" Lei Dongbao took two bites of the cold dish. You can never say anything bad when Song's mother mixes the cold dish.

The son-in-law was usually treated very well at home. The old couple knew that he liked to eat pig heads and pig ears, so they always asked their relative who was a butcher in the town to leave some for him.

"It's very good, the higher-ups think highly of me!" Song Yunhui didn't say much. Although he had already accepted Lei Dongbao as his brother-in-law in his heart, as a college student he still subconsciously thought that Lei Dongbao didn't understand these things.

"Hmm..." He hesitated, but finally decided to speak up. "I've heard from my sister that something is not right in the village. Gong Xinming is probably up to no good. You should be more careful!"

A smile appeared on Lei Dongbao's face.

This brother-in-law is not only good at studying, but also very talented in some aspects. Otherwise, he would not be able to become the head of Donghai Chemical in the future. In this era, heavy industry enterprises have to be coaxed at the top!

"Don't worry, I know what's going on!"

"And to tell you the truth, things in the village are a little complicated. Your sister almost got into an accident this time, so I've figured out some things. Living a good life is better than anything else!"

"Who cares about the position of village party secretary? Let them fight for it. I already have other plans in mind~"

Lei Dongbao had never said these words to his wife before. This was the first time he said these words.

Song Yunhui was quite shocked after hearing this. He never expected that his brother-in-law would say this.

The reason for the reminder was that when the brother and sister were chatting just now, sister Song Yunping asked him to persuade her brother-in-law not to always revolve around his wife and children, and to pay attention to work as well.

"You...you don't want to be the branch secretary?"

"What's so good about being the branch secretary? As the saying goes, there are all kinds of people when there are hundreds of them. I have seen through all the people in the village. If I, Lei Dongbao, can bring benefits, I will be loved by others. Otherwise, someone will immediately ask me to step down!" Lei Dongbao said as he began to count on his fingers.

"We run a pig farm, a brick kiln factory, a prefabricated product factory, and a city-famous construction team. These businesses can provide each household in the village with an average annual income of thousands of yuan. I guess the income of the newly employed workers at Jinzhou Chemical is about the same, right?"

"Yeah!" Song Yunhui nodded. When he first started working in 82, he only made 42 yuan a month.

"To be a good branch secretary, I can only lead the Lei family to move forward. There is no turning back. After all, people are greedy. If they make 1000, they want to make 2000. It's better to retire now!"

After hearing what Lei Dongbao said, Song Yunhui had nothing to persuade him. "Then if you don't want to be the branch secretary, what are you going to do next?"

"The current economic situation is different from when you first entered college. With the deepening of reform and opening up, the private economy has begun to recover!"

"As the plenary session said, only those who are rich first can help those who are poor to become rich later..."

Lei Dongbao's advanced ideas on economics made Song Yunhui couldn't help but nod his head. He even felt that he benefited a lot. For the first time, he had a new understanding of this brother-in-law who he thought was a rough man.

I couldn't help but ask: "Brother-in-law, where do you think the chemical industry will develop in the end?"

After asking this question, he shook his head, feeling that it was somewhat redundant. How could his brother-in-law understand these things?

“I don’t know much about the chemical industry, but I personally think that no matter what industry it is, it will eventually face integration!”

"Especially for your state-owned industries, the higher-ups can only squeeze all the resources together. After all, our foundation is relatively weak now. It is impossible to squeeze a little here and a little there like squeezing toothpaste. One fist is always more powerful than 10 fingers~"

Lei Dongbao is a reborn person after all. Only giant enterprises can survive in later generations, but now there are chemical plants almost everywhere.

Song Yunhui was so surprised by this point of view that he couldn't help but nod repeatedly.

He leaned back in his chair and looked at the stars in the sky. He took off his glasses and put his hands behind his head.

"Brother-in-law, our Jinzhou Chemical Factory now has aging equipment and our chemical fiber industry is basically zero. If we want to develop, we can only introduce advanced production lines from abroad, but funding is a big problem. The R&D department is also helpless without resources!"

"So I can only improve myself. To use a metaphor that may not be appropriate, there is a saying in our rural areas when we go hunting in the mountains: when you encounter a ferocious beast, sometimes you don't need to run faster than a tiger, you just need to run faster than other people. Only by showing your own value can others notice you!"

“We have caught up with a good era. Now it depends on whether we are willing to be a dream chaser who is determined to move forward and not let down the opportunities given by the times!”

"Xiaohui, you are a college student, so you should shoulder your own responsibilities!" Lei Dongbao drank a big bowl of chicken soup for the soul.

This may not work for others, but Song Yunhui was like a chicken with its blood pumped up.

“The endless raging waves are like the vast ocean, and one punch to the sky is enough to suppress the tide!” After repeating it once, the whole person seemed to have his soul cleansed.

"This is a good saying, and I benefited a lot from it!"

The more he talked, the more excited he became: "I have to have a drink~"

When Lei Dongbao picked up the cup, he couldn't help but complain in his heart, this is what you, Song Yunhui, said in the play, you just said it in advance, of course, it's benefited a lot.

"Brother-in-law, I always thought you were just a rough guy, but I didn't expect you to be so cultured. I am really short-sighted!"

"I solemnly apologize to you!"

"Xiaohui, why are you saying this? But... sometimes you still have to pay attention to the way and method of doing things. In your environment, doing things is secondary. The most important thing is to study people's hearts thoroughly!"

Song Yunhui reminded himself, and Lei Dongbao reminded him in return.

In the play, it is unknown how many shortcuts he took to marry Cheng Kaiyan, but the backlash he suffered in the end was not small. Otherwise, it is said that one should marry a virtuous wife.

The two chatted until midnight, and even talked themselves sober. If Song Yunping hadn't already taken a nap and couldn't bear to watch it anymore, they would probably have chatted until dawn.

……

There is no weekend off now, and it will take more than 10 years for a weekend off. Song Yunhui took two days off, including the weekend, for a total of three days. It would probably take only two or three hours to get from Jinling to Jinzhou by highway decades later.

But now I need to take a bus to the provincial capital, and then take a train from the provincial capital to Jinzhou. In total, I can only stay at home for two nights.

We had to leave early in the morning on the third day.

After sending the person to the station and returning home, Lei Dongbao saw his son Lei Ming lying quietly in the crib, sleeping soundly and blowing bubbles.

Song Yunping was making clothes when she was free. There were no children's clothes now, so most children's clothes were sewed by themselves.

"Dongbao, are you hungry?"

"I'm not very hungry. I bought some buns for Xiaohui when we got on the bus. I originally wanted to give them to him, but they said they couldn't take them in. So I ate two to fill my stomach!"

"I'd better go make you a bowl of noodles!"

"No, no, I'm not hungry!"

After stopping his wife, Lei Dongbao tiptoed to the bedside, gazed at his eldest son's adorable sleeping face, his heart filled with love.

While his son was still asleep, he gently held Song Yunping in his arms.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?" Song Yunping felt a little embarrassed in broad daylight. "Stop it, be careful not to get pricked, I'm still sewing clothes here!"

"I got up a little early today, so I'll go back to sleep!"

Unable to resist Lei Dongbao, the two of them hugged each other and crawled into bed, enjoying this moment of tenderness. Song Yunping, who had given birth to a child, became more plump, and the charm she exuded made people intoxicated.

Feeling that his eyes were not right, Song Yunping immediately took precautions. "Stop it, it's not good for people to hear it in broad daylight!"

"I didn't say anything!" Lei Dongbao lay down and hugged his wife tightly in his arms.

"Xiaohui, didn't you notice the money I put in the bag?"

"No, you are definitely good at hiding things!"

"That's fine!" Song Yunping nodded.

The two of them snuggled together quietly, enjoying the peaceful time, and fell asleep unknowingly.

When the old couple came back from the fields, Song's mother walked to the west room as usual. Seeing that her daughter and son-in-law were still sleeping, she did not disturb them, but just took her grandson away.

I don’t know how long it was before the sound of my son crying suddenly broke the silence in the room.

Lei Dongbao was confused.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Song Yunping, who was also awake, opened her eyes and didn't see her son, so she shouted outside.

"The child is hungry!" Song's mother walked in last night holding her grandson.

Song Yunping quickly stood up and scolded her son, coaxing him gently.

"Good little rabbit, open the door~" humming a lullaby.

Lei Dongbao was awakened by his son's crying.

Song Yunping is breastfeeding

I opened my eyes sleepily, and my gaze involuntarily fell on her.

I didn’t feel hungry just now, but after a nap my stomach feels a bit empty.

Perhaps noticing Lei Dongbao's gaze, Song Yunping glared at him somewhat embarrassedly.

“There’s not enough food for the kids!”

"Uh..." Lei Dongbao smiled awkwardly.
