Chapter 237: The Silly Man Who Found His Life Goal

The story is very magical. I don’t know whether the baby is too smart or this abandoned baby and Suning have a connection. Ever since Suning picked up the baby girl, she stopped crying and stared around with her big eyes.

Seeing the child so well-behaved, Suning couldn't help but smile. No matter how bad his mood was, encountering the innocent smile of this "human cub" would make Suning feel spiritually purified.

The conductor was chattering a lot, but when he saw that Suning was just staring at the baby in her arms, he stopped talking and said no more.

"Comrade, we have milk powder!
But what should I do now if I don’t have a bottle?
Or maybe just heat the milk powder in a cup and feed it to the child little by little?"

Hearing the conductor finally stop talking nonsense, Suning looked up with a smile, realizing that he was also a kind-hearted person, and then explained with a smile, "I have brought a bottle!"

"Ah?" The conductor was really surprised at this time. Suning was really well prepared.

Suning knew the train attendant would be confused, so he smiled and explained, "My wife is about to give birth, and I prepared the milk powder and bottles in advance!"

"Oh! So that's how it is! Doesn't that mean your family's burden is even heavier?"

"It's okay! It's just a matter of raising one more child."

Seeing that Suning didn't care, the conductor stopped talking and saw Suning first scald the bottle with boiling water, then add cold water and hot water respectively, and feel the water temperature with his hands, and finally add milk powder and shake it.

The train attendants and nearby neighbors looked at Suning's series of skillful movements with curiosity. She was more skilled than some experienced mothers. After all, it was rare to be able to afford milk powder in this day and age, so the people around her were very surprised.

"Brother, how many children are there in your family?

You are so skilled at boiling milk!" A middle-aged woman looked at Su Ning curiously.

Suning first stuffed the bottle of scalded milk into the baby girl's mouth. Seeing her mouth moving vigorously, she couldn't help but smile.

"Oh! I have more brothers and sisters!

Most of them were brought up by me, their eldest brother!" Suning looked up at the curious middle-aged woman and explained with a smile.

In the previous life, Suning raised four children. He brought up the youngest, Qiao Qiqi, from birth to the time he started a family. Now he has no pressure to act as a "nanny" again.

The little one in her arms quickly finished 60 milliliters of milk and then fell into a deep sleep. She was probably exhausted after all this tossing and turning.

With the special care of the train conductor along the way, Suning and the child had no problems. The only problem was that babies nowadays all use diapers, so poop and pee are the biggest troubles.

Fortunately, there were many enthusiastic passengers with children who took out the diapers they had prepared for their own children and changed the diapers for the babies, which prevented Suning from being in a hurry.

Beijing.

Ran Qiuye had a very difficult time in the past two years. Her parents were sent to a cadre school for reeducation through labor, and she herself was forced to clean the student toilets. She was surrounded by her own students every day and felt that life was worse than death.

Looking at Erdan who came to the toilet with his classmates, he suddenly thought of the former Suning, and that one of her teachers was about to have a birthday. Then he considered whether he could borrow Suning's house to hold a birthday party for the teacher, so as to get closer to the teacher, and perhaps the teacher could help him.

It's not that Ran Qiuye is too scheming, it's just that her current situation is too difficult to bear, and she can only helplessly find a way to get out of the predicament.

"Student Zhang Yuan, do you still remember me?"

"You are Teacher Ran! I know you!" Erdan looked at Ran Qiuye with a smile.

"Then how about I go with you to your house today?"

"Okay!"

After school, Ran Qiuye followed Erdan and Sanya to Suning's house, and then walked into Suning's courtyard in surprise.

Zhang Ning was also a little surprised by Ran Qiuye's sudden arrival, and then came out to greet her with her big belly.

"Hello, Teacher Ran! I'm Zhang Ning, He Yuzhu's wife!"

"Hello! Is Master He at home?" Ran Qiuye looked at Zhang Ning's belly in surprise.

"My husband isn't here! He's on a business trip south and won't be back for another two or three days!"

"Ah? On a business trip?" Ran Qiuye showed a disappointed expression.

"Teacher Ran, do you have something to do with my husband?"

"Huh? Here's what happened!
One of my teachers is having a birthday party tomorrow. Since he is from Sichuan, I would like to ask Chef He to help prepare Sichuan dishes.

"Oh! So that's how it is!
Teacher Ran, this matter is very simple!
My husband has an apprentice who has now mastered Sichuan cuisine!

Let him cook Sichuan cuisine, he can definitely help you solve the problem!"

"Ah? That's great!" Ran Qiuye suddenly felt as if a new light had appeared after a dark period.

"Erdan, take Teacher Ran to the slum to find your Uncle Ma Hua.

Then ask him to help Teacher Ran prepare Sichuan cuisine tomorrow!

Just say that Teacher Ran is your brother's good friend!"

"I know! Sister!"

Erdan and Sanya often followed Zhang Ning to the slum to visit the deaf old lady, so Zhang Ning was not worried that Erdan didn't know the way to the slum, and then left the task of leading the way to Erdan.

Ma Hua was getting married soon and really needed money, so he was happy to go out and do some private work. However, when he heard Erdan explain that Ran Qiuye was Suning's friend, Ma Hua gave up the idea of taking advantage of the situation.

The next day, Ma Hua successfully completed the task assigned by Ran Qiuye, which made Ran Qiuye's teacher and his family very satisfied. Ran Qiuye's teacher took out some money and was about to hand it to Ma Hua.

Seeing the teacher's actions, Ma Hua immediately refused directly, then explained with a smile, "Teacher, please don't give me money. This is all arranged by Teacher Ran!"

The teacher looked at Ran Qiuye next to him, as if he had understood everything, and then said with a smile, "Qiuye, teacher, I'm causing you trouble again!"

"Teacher Liu, it's my honor to help you with something!"

"Qiuye, I've heard about your story!

I'll try my best to help you find a solution!

It's just that the situation is special now, so don't hold your hopes too high!"

"Teacher Liu, no matter what, I have to thank you!"

After Ma Hua completed the task, he went straight back to the slum, and Ran Qiuye also got the promise he needed and went straight home.

When she thought about seeing Zhang Ning yesterday, she was still very surprised. She didn't expect that Zhang Ning would be pregnant so soon. Although Su Ning was not in Beijing, Ran Qiuye could still feel the happiness in Zhang Ning's smile.

To be honest, Ran Qiuye felt a little jealous. Although he had never had anything with Suning, he still felt like he had lost something.

When Suning returned to Beijing, Zhang Ning was very surprised to see Suning holding a baby.

"Brother, who is this child?"

"Hey! I found an abandoned baby on my way back!
It looks quite pitiful, so I brought it home to raise it myself!"

"Ah? Brother, you are so amazing!
I went out and brought back a child."

"Haha, I didn't expect that! Some things are just so wonderful!" Suning was also amused by his own experience.

When Su Ning carefully put the sleeping child to bed, he felt something was missing at home. "Zhang Ning, where's Yu Shui?"

"She missed her child! I let her go home!"

"Ah! This Yu Shui is really not someone you can trust!"

"Brother, don't blame Yu Shui! I was the one who asked her to go back!"

After hearing Zhang Ning's defense of He Yushui, Suning didn't say anything else. Anyway, he already knew what kind of person this adopted sister was, so there was really no need to care too much about it.

"Well! Did anything happen during the few days I was away from the capital?"

"No! Oh! By the way! Teacher Ran Qiuye Ran came to our house to look for you!"

"Teacher Ran?"

"She said one of her teachers was having a birthday and wanted you to cook a table of Sichuan cuisine for her teacher. Then I asked her to go find Ma Hua."

"Well! You handled this matter very well!" "Haha, as long as it didn't cause you any trouble!"

"Zhang Ning, I found this child on the road this time, and I thought that with our family's financial situation, we could definitely adopt a few more poor children like this."

"Ah? This..." Zhang Ning hesitated.

"Zhang Ning, a child can only cost ten yuan a month at most!
My current salary is 120 yuan, so we are fully capable of doing this.

The main thing is that you don't have a job right now, so we can make this a career for both of us."

"Brother, although we are able to adopt a child now!

But adopting a child is not just about providing food and drink, there are other things to do!

I think it's too complicated!" Zhang Ning felt a little confused.

"Yeah! You have a point!
But we can’t just muddle through our days just because we’re afraid of trouble!
I feel like my life has no meaning at all!"

"Brother, I understand what you mean! But I still feel like the responsibility is too great!"

"Haha, now this is just my immature idea!
After you give birth to the child, raise him well and then talk about other things!"

"Yes! Brother, I will listen to you!
Have you named the child yet?"

"Not yet! She's a girl!
Do you have any good suggestions?"

"Huh? If it's a girl! Why not call her He Jinghui!"

"He Jinghui? Not bad! That's a nice name!"

About two months after Suning returned to the capital, Zhang Ning gave birth to a son. Suning named her son He Jingshan, which means the mountains and rivers are safe.

In fact, Lou Xiao'e had already given birth to a son for Suning in the second half of 1966. The only difference from the original drama was that this time Lou Xiao'e gave birth to twins, which was the biggest change brought to Suning.

"Xiao'e, the two brothers Jingguo and Jingtai are so cute with their chubby faces!"

"Haha, I wonder if my brother would be overjoyed if he knew I gave birth to twins for him!"

"I am very sure of that!

I don’t know what Zhuzi is doing in the capital now?
I wonder if our family's departure will cause him any trouble?"

"Huh? That shouldn't be the case!

Few people know the specific relationship between me and my brother!

And his cooking skills are so good, he will definitely live well in the capital!"

"Yeah! I think that's the case!

Xiao'e, how is your business going recently?"

"Yeah! Business is pretty good!
The renovation of the old building has been completed. The Jingzhu Cinema Line, which I registered last year, now has seven cinemas and has established a solid foundation of trust with Hong Kong film companies."

"Haha, that's good!
Your father has just recovered and can’t help you much!

You can only work hard outside alone!"

"Mom, everything in Hong Kong has my brother's plan. I just need to follow it! It's not a hassle at all!"

"Yeah! Sometimes it's just magical. It's hard to imagine that the pillars have such great abilities!"

In fact, Lou Xiao'e also missed Suning in Beijing. She knew that Suning would definitely start a family in Beijing. She did not expect Suning to wait for her. After all, she and Suning were now in different places.

After coming to Hong Kong in the past two years, with the success of her career, and with many people around her who are trying to curry favor with her, Lou Xiao'e has also thought about remarrying.

But as soon as this thought came to her mind, Lou Xiaoe immediately remembered her promise to Suning, and felt that doing so was too unkind.

Although Lou Xiao'e said it lightly, she really felt very tired after working alone for the past two years, and she also wanted to find a confidant who could share the burden with her.

"Xiao'e, I heard that a graduate from the University of Hong Kong has been sending you flowers recently?"

"Yes! He's the manager of a cinema under the Jingzhu Cinema Line.

I didn't expect him to be so bold!" Lou Xiao'e explained with a blushing face and a pounding heart.

"Hong Kong men are not as reserved as mainland men. I feel like Hong Kong men are more open and aggressive!
Xiao'e, what do you think?

"I don't know either!"

Seeing her daughter Lou Xiao'e's conflicted face, how could her mother not understand her daughter's complicated mentality? In fact, it showed that she was already moved.

"Xiao'e, I actually feel that you have done a great job for He Yuzhu in the capital!
After all, you've already given birth to two sons for him, you can't keep waiting endlessly like this!"

"Mom, Keke, I made a promise to my brother!

And now my career is only successful because of my brother's plan."

"Silly child, will Zhuzi keep the promise between you two?

He must have gotten married in the capital by now, right?"

"This"

“And the plan written by Zhuzi, no matter how good it is, still needs people to implement it, right?
I think it would be enough to just give He Yuzhu 20% of the company's shares!"

"Mom, stop talking!

My mind is in a mess right now, please let me think about it!"

Mother Lou looked at Lou Xiao'e, who was already moved, and did not continue talking. After all, the final decision still had to be made by Lou Xiao'e herself.

A few days later, Lou Xiao'e changed the company's shareholding structure, giving Beijing Suning 25% of the shares, and the two brothers He Jingguo and He Jingtai each owned 10% of the shares.

Zhang Ning is a novice when it comes to taking care of children, but Suning is a real super "daddy". Seeing Suning taking care of the two children with ease, Zhang Ning was also very shocked.

"Brother, how come you are so good at taking care of children?"

"Yeah! I raised Yu Shui! Of course I have experience taking care of children!"

"Brother, before I gave birth, I was worried about how to take care of the child!

Now that you've taken over, I feel like it's so easy!"

"Haha, don't be lazy!
Hurry up and learn how to take care of children, then we can have more children, and you will have experience in the future!"

"Ah? Brother, don't you want to adopt a few more children?"

"Yes! But adopting a child doesn't conflict with having our own children!

I've finally figured it out: if I want to live a meaningful life, I have to find something meaningful to do!

"Well! Brother, I have been thinking about what you said these days!
If I could really use my own ability to adopt a few more poor children, it would be a good deed!"

"Haha, so you agree too!"

"Yes! Brother, I agree!"

"Haha, that's good!
When husband and wife are united, earth turns into gold.

I don’t expect my children to repay me much when they grow up, as long as they can live a meaningful life, that’s enough!”

Suning has always wanted to get his wife's support. After all, he doesn't want to cause family discord in order to do good things. This is not the result Suning wants.

Now that Zhang Ning agreed to his plan, Suning was really happy. He was arranged by the system to live in this courtyard world. If he really lived his whole life in a muddle, it would be meaningless.

Now Suning no longer thinks about the task given to him by the system. He suddenly thinks of adopting a few more poor children, helping them to the best of his ability, and letting his former neighbors in the courtyard see what it means to have a courtyard full of love.
