Chapter 189 Eat a Full Meal
Chapter 189 Eat a Full Meal
Zhang Zihao really did expect that Zhang Baoguo would ask about his parents as soon as they met, but this is also human nature. What child doesn't miss his parents?
However, when he thought of his son and daughter-in-law who died in the war, the eyes of this old man who had defended his country for many years were filled with tears.
He wiped his tears with his rough hands, took a deep breath, and then slowly said to Zhang Baoguo: "Son, your parents are heroes. They have sacrificed their lives for this country."
After Zhang Baoguo learned that he was adopted, although he had the love of his adoptive parents, he also wanted to meet his biological parents.
He just didn't expect that his biological parents had passed away a long time ago. Hearing this, Zhang Baoguo couldn't help feeling sad.
Then he asked, "Grandpa, do we have any other relatives?"
Zhang Zihao shook his head sadly and said solemnly: "We are each other's only relatives. Our other relatives also died in the war to defend our country."
Hearing that his relatives had died in the war to defend the country, Zhang Baoguo couldn't help but wonder: "Then how did you get to this place, Grandpa? I heard from my parents that you are a bad element who was sent down to the countryside."
Speaking of being demoted, it is impossible for Zhang Zihao to say that he has no complaints. However, he also knows that in the process of building a country, there will always be some discordant people and things.
So he said to the child: "Your name is Baoguo, right? That's because many grandparents were framed by others, and grandpa helped them, so those people couldn't bear to see grandpa doing well, so they sent grandpa down as well."
“Are those people all bad guys?”
"In fact, there are good people and bad people, but overall there are more good people. Grandpa believes that one day they will figure it out and correct their mistakes."
At this time, Zhang Baoguo looked at his grandfather's old face and said, "I understand, but Grandpa, you have to take care of yourself. I believe in you, and we can both wait until that day."
Zhang Zihao smiled with relief and said, "Yes, Baoguo is right, we will all wait for that day."
At this time, Zhang Yu walked in from outside, saw that the father and son were chatting happily, and felt happy for his son.
But we talked for too long. Although this place is remote, there is a danger of being discovered if we chat for too long.
So he walked in and reminded the two of them, "Master Zhang, let's stop here today. Although this place is remote, it would be bad if someone found us. You don't want Baoguo to get hurt, do you?"
Hearing Zhang Yu's words, Mr. Zhang said: "Yes, yes, our relationship cannot be discovered by others. Comrade, you take the child away first."
Although Zhang Zihao wanted to be with his grandson all the time, he also knew his current situation. If their relationship was discovered, his grandson would have to live with him in the cowshed, not having enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear. He would never let this happen.
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Don't worry, old man. I will bring the children to see you from time to time. If you need to find me for anything, just go to my house at the entrance of the village and tell my mother. My mother will notify me."
Zhang Zihao nodded and replied: "Oh, I understand. You guys can leave now."
Zhang Yu took Zhang Baoguo and said goodbye to Zhang Zihao. He handed him the small cloth bag in his hand and said, "Mr. Zhang, here are some white flour buns. Take them."
Mr. Zhang had inquired about Zhang Yu's situation and knew that his family had no shortage of food, so he took it without hesitation and expressed his gratitude.
Before leaving, Zhang Baoguo solemnly said to Zhang Zihao: "Grandpa, I will come to see you later, you must take care of yourself."
Zhang Zihao's biggest spiritual support is his grandson. Hearing that his grandson cares about him so much, he feels full of strength again.
He waved at the two of them, and only walked slowly towards his cowshed when he could no longer see their shadows.
At this time, he thought of the two children Zhang Yu had lost.
The old man has never owed anyone a favor in his life. Since someone helped him find his grandson, he should also help them.
Thinking of this, he decided to go find Zhang Yu soon. He wanted to tell Zhang Yu what he knew, hoping that he could find his child.
After Zhang Zihao returned to the cowshed with the steamed buns, he did not hide it from other people in the cowshed.
They were all poor people who huddled together for warmth, so he took out the white flour buns and distributed them to the people in the cowshed. It was New Year's Day, and there was nothing else, so it would be good for everyone to have a full meal.
The old professor in the cowshed was already very familiar with Zhang Zihao, and he was very shocked when he saw him distributing steamed buns.
One of them, Professor Liu, who had a very good relationship with Zhang Zihao, asked in confusion: "Old Zhang, you have such connections in the village, why didn't you use them earlier? We can also benefit from it, right?"
Thinking of his grandson, Zhang Zihao didn't want him to misunderstand that he had a relationship with the villagers and guess that his grandson was here.
So he replied: "How can I know anyone in the village? I bought it from a villager and hid a little money secretly before."
"Oh, so you, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, also hide your own money."
After Professor Liu said this, everyone burst into laughter.
In the past few months, they have really been going through the darkest time in their lives.
In the past, they had eaten all kinds of delicacies from land and sea, but they never expected that a few steamed buns could make them so happy now. If it were in the past, this would have been impossible.
Zhang Yu gave Zhang Zihao a total of more than a dozen steamed buns, which Zhang Zihao and the group of old professors ate in one meal.
After eating, Zhang Zihao went to the village entrance to wait for Zhang Yu, because this was the only way out of the village.
Sure enough, after a while, Zhang Zihao saw Zhang Yu riding a bike and bringing Zhang Baoguo over.
He looked around and made sure there was no one around, then he walked out and grabbed Zhang Yu and Zhang Baoguo.
Zhang Yu really didn't expect that old man Zhang Zhangzihao was so unreliable. This is a main road with people coming and going frequently. What if he was seen by others?
But seeing Zhang Zihao's anxious look, he must have something urgent, so he said to Zhang Baoguo: "Baoguo, wait for me here, I'll go see what your grandfather wants. If anyone comes, call me loudly."
"Okay, Dad, I know."
Although Zhang Baoguo also wanted to talk to his grandfather again, he was a good and obedient child, so he just stayed here to watch the car for Zhang Yu and keep watch.
