Chapter 179: The Zheng Family
by SunflowerOf course, Fang Xiaoyue’s gift was mainly because of Teacher Zheng’s daughter. But it’s not a crime to be too polite. It was the New Year, and she gave a gift worth several thousand yuan to her former teacher. It couldn’t be said to be too expensive.
When they arrived at Teacher Zheng’s house and rang the doorbell, Teacher Zheng’s husband, Old Feng, came to open the door. When he saw the two of them, especially Chen Feng, he was very happy. He warmly held his hand and led him into the house.
As for Fang Xiaoyue, he also nodded, but he was obviously not as enthusiastic as he was towards Chen Feng.
At this time, only he and Teacher Zheng, two old people, were at home. Fang Xiaoyue was obviously a little disappointed, but Chen Feng was slightly relieved.
Although he had a good impression of Director Feng, she was an official after all, and he was a commoner. If she hadn’t helped him before, it would have been fine. After all, he had no desires, so he could face her calmly.
But she had helped him a lot before, which made Chen Feng feel a little awkward. If they met again, he felt it would be difficult to face her calmly and talk to her as an equal.
Teacher Zheng was also very happy to see Chen Feng again. She asked about his current situation with concern. When she heard that he now had a girlfriend, she was also happy for him. The last time he came, he told Teacher Zheng about his divorce, and she nagged him for a long time, and even wanted to introduce him to someone.
This time, when she heard that he had a girlfriend, she was relieved. She asked about his girlfriend’s situation with concern. Chen Feng said that she had a good personality and was quite pretty. In the end, he simply opened WeChat and showed her a photo of Sun Xiaorui. Only then did Teacher Zheng nod with satisfaction and say, “This girl looks blessed. The most important thing is that she has a good temper and personality, and she is compatible with you. Since you are dating her now, you should treat her well. If you think it’s suitable, you should settle the matter as soon as possible. You are not young anymore, and you can’t delay your marriage any longer.”
Chen Feng followed her words and said, “Yes. I’ll see how it goes. If it’s suitable, I can indeed consider getting married again.”
Teacher Zheng emphasized, “The most important thing is to have a child. You don’t have a child at your age, and people will gossip about you.”
Chen Feng could only smile awkwardly.
Teacher Zheng’s spirit seemed to be much better than before, and her speech was much more fluent than when Chen Feng came last time. She chatted with Chen Feng for nearly half an hour without getting tired.
During this period, Fang Xiaoyue basically couldn’t get a word in. It was only when Chen Feng saw her sitting on the side a little awkwardly that he took care of her a little and pulled her into the topic, so that she could say a few words.
Although Fang Xiaoyue was also Teacher Zheng’s student, she didn’t seem to be very popular. However, the old couple didn’t give her a cold shoulder either. It was just that their attitude towards her was much worse than towards Chen Feng.
Later, Chen Feng took out the gifts he had brought for Teacher Zheng, an electronic blood pressure and blood sugar meter. He taught Teacher Zheng and her husband how to use them according to the instructions.
The old couple learned and used them with Chen Feng and were very happy.
They had a blood pressure meter at home, but it was obviously not as accurate as the one Chen Feng bought this time. They didn’t have a blood sugar meter.
As for the health pot, they also had one. Teacher Zheng asked him to take it back. Chen Feng was not polite. Since they had one and were using it, he readily agreed. He could just take it home for his parents to use.
Chen Feng’s unpretentious attitude made Teacher Zheng and her husband very satisfied.
Seeing Chen Feng like this, Fang Xiaoyue also told the old couple about the gifts she had brought.
Logically speaking, the deer antler, ginseng, and bird’s nest she brought were more valuable than what Chen Feng brought. But the old couple just said a few polite words and didn’t say much more. Their attitude was somewhat distant.
This made Fang Xiaoyue, who had spent a lot of money, very helpless and depressed. If she had known that they preferred gifts like Chen Feng’s, she would not have spent the money in vain.
Just as Chen Feng was about to leave, there was a commotion at the door. It was Director Feng, Feng Xiaoying, and her family who had come. There were two people behind them, carrying a massage chair.
Seeing this, Chen Feng and Fang Xiaoyue quickly went forward to greet them.
Seeing Chen Feng, Feng Xiaoying and her husband were also very happy. They responded enthusiastically and introduced him to their daughter, Cai Xuetong. She was seventeen or eighteen years old, with a ponytail, a pretty face, and a lively personality.
At her parents’ request, she called Chen Feng “Brother Chen,” and then went to her grandmother, Teacher Zheng, with a smile on her face and chatted happily.
Teacher Zheng was also very happy to see this granddaughter. She held her hand, her face full of smiles.
The two delivery workers quickly adjusted the electric massage chair. Chen Feng and Teacher Zheng’s son-in-law helped Teacher Zheng out of bed and let her sit on the electric massage chair. According to the instructions, they introduced and operated it while letting the old couple learn.
After a series of operations, the old couple both sat on it and tried it. They were both quite satisfied.
Old Feng even praised his daughter, which made Feng Xiaoying beam with joy. She said with a smile, “I was inspired by the electric foot bath that Chen Feng sent last time. In addition, I finally had some free time these two days, so I compared several products and bought this massage chair for my mother.”
Teacher Zheng said happily, “It’s also thanks to this student of mine. I feel that after using the electric foot bath, my body is much better than before, and I sleep much more comfortably at night. Xiaoying, you can learn from one example and buy this massage chair for your mother. Your mother is also very satisfied. Maybe it will also be good for your mother’s recovery.”
Chen Feng nodded and said, “This is definitely beneficial. The electric foot bath only massages the soles of the feet, while this electric massage chair massages the whole body. It’s just right for the teacher’s recovery. Maybe next time I come, the teacher will be able to get up and walk by herself.”
“Haha, then thank you for your auspicious words. I also hope to recover as soon as possible. Otherwise, I’m either lying in bed or sitting in a wheelchair all day. Not to mention being a burden to my husband and the younger generation, I don’t even have the will to live.”
“Mom, what are you talking about? How can this be called a burden?” Feng Xiaoying said with some emotion. “As long as you are still alive, our family is complete. If you are not here, do you know how sad Dad and I will be?”
“And me,” Cai Xuetong interrupted. “Grandma, don’t say such discouraging words. It’s just that your legs are a little inconvenient now. I believe you will recover soon. After I get into college, you have to personally come to my college entrance banquet.”
Teacher Zheng said with great relief, “Alright, alright. As long as you get into a famous university, your grandmother’s legs will definitely be nimble.”
Cai Xuetong suddenly said with some lack of confidence, “It’s a bit difficult for a famous university, but a first-tier university is definitely no problem.”
“Are you sure about Donghai University?” Old Feng asked.
Cai Xuetong stuck out her tongue and said with a guilty conscience, “I’m really not sure about that.”
Teacher Zheng shook her head and said, “You, your mind is still too active and not focused enough. However, it’s not bad to have the confidence to get into a first-tier university. These two students of mine seem to be both from first-tier universities. Chen Feng is from Donghai University of Science and Technology, which is a 985 university, ranking second only to Donghai University in the province. Xiaoyue, what university did you graduate from?”
Fang Xiaoyue quickly replied, “I graduated from Shenshi University.”
Teacher Zheng nodded and said nothing. Although Shenshi was a first-class city, Shenshi University was not a first-class university. It could barely be considered a second-class university and was not a 985 university.
Of course, Fang Xiaoyue also knew this. After answering, her face was slightly embarrassed.
Chen Feng spoke up to help her out, “It’s not necessarily about what famous university you go to. It also depends on the major. Otherwise, even if you get into Donghai University but choose an unpopular major, it’s also very annoying.”
“That’s right, that’s right,” Cai Xuetong nodded repeatedly in agreement. “I want to choose a biology major, but my mother insists that I choose environmental science. I’m not interested in that at all.”
Chen Feng thought to himself, little sister, you really don’t know how lucky you are.
Feng Xiaoying shook her head and said, “Let’s talk about it after you get into a first-tier university.”
Her husband, Old Cai, also said, “When your score reaches the first-tier university line, we can respect your choice.”
Only then did Cai Xuetong nod with satisfaction and say, “That’s more like it.”
Teacher Zheng smiled and shook her head, “Your mother is also doing this for your own good. You’ll know when you’re older.”
Cai Xuetong said, “Of course I know, but I’m really not interested in environmental engineering at all. I’m only interested in biology. And in the future world, biology will also be a very popular major. Maybe in the future, I can become a biologist and make my own contribution to the country’s biotechnology.”
Hearing her boastful words, the adults couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Although Fang Xiaoyue also smiled, she was more reserved. She took the opportunity to flatter, “Sister Xuetong is so ambitious. It’s also from her family’s background. I think she might really be able to do it in the future, become a biologist, and make her own scientific research achievements.”
Hearing this, Cai Xuetong smiled with some embarrassment and said, “I’m just saying. I also know it’s very difficult to become a biologist, but I will work hard for it.”
Chen Feng said with a smile, “Your mentality is very good. The most important thing in life is to be happy and do what you are interested in. Sister Xiaoying, I think if she is really not interested in environmental engineering, you shouldn’t force her to choose this major. Otherwise, she may not be able to learn it well in college.”
Chen Feng’s words were a bit abrupt, but Feng Xiaoying obviously listened. She smiled and nodded, “I’m also planning to pave the way for her future life. But if she insists on choosing her own path, then I can only let her be. I just hope she won’t regret it in the future.”
“Thank you, Mom. I won’t regret it,” Cai Xuetong said with a firm face.
Feng Xiaoying shook her head slightly and didn’t say anything more.
Teacher Zheng changed the subject and said, “Xiaoying, Chen Feng bought me a blood pressure and blood sugar meter this time. That blood pressure meter is much more accurate than the one you bought. Come and measure it. Didn’t you say last time that your blood pressure is also a little high?”
Hearing this, Feng Xiaoying went to get the instrument. Under Chen Feng’s explanation, she measured her blood pressure and blood sugar respectively. The measured values were all slightly high.
Chen Feng kindly reminded, “Sister Xiaoying, it seems you should pay more attention to your health, especially control your diet. You should strictly control high-calorie and high-sugar foods and not eat too much.”
“The doctor said the same thing when I went for a check-up last time,” Feng Xiaoying said with some helplessness. “I have too many social engagements, and some of them can’t be turned down. Fortunately, I have quit drinking in recent years. As for the others, I can only adjust slowly. Chen Feng, you are so thoughtful. I only knew to buy a blood pressure meter for my mother, but I didn’t think of a blood sugar meter.”
Chen Feng said with a smile, “I’m just filling in the gaps. In addition, I also sent a health pot, but it turned out that the teacher’s family already had one, and it looked better than the one I sent.”
Feng Xiaoying also said with a smile, “This health pot is said to be imported from Japan. It was also a gift from someone else. I gave it to my mother. It’s really good to use.”
“Yes, some small appliances from Japan are indeed slightly better than those made in China, and the quality is also slightly better.”
“We can talk about this privately, but we can’t say it publicly.”
Chen Feng smiled and nodded.
After chatting with them for a while, Chen Feng felt that it was about time and proposed to leave.
Although Teacher Zheng was still a little reluctant and said to leave after dinner, it was only after three o’clock in the afternoon, and it was too long to wait for dinner.
So Chen Feng used the excuse that he had to go to another house to pay a New Year’s visit. Teacher Zheng couldn’t keep him any longer and could only let her daughter and son-in-law see him off.
In front of Teacher Zheng, Feng Xiaoying was a daughter. She was very respectful and personally saw Chen Feng and Fang Xiaoyue to the door, which made Fang Xiaoyue feel flattered. She repeatedly asked her to stay at the door.
After the two of them went down the unit building, Fang Xiaoyue let out a long sigh of relief and said with some emotion, “We’ve been to Teacher Zheng’s house so many times, but this is the first time we’ve met Director Feng. I was really nervous just now.”
Chen Feng glanced at her and said with a smile, “What’s there to be nervous about? Sister Xiaoying is a leader in the unit, but at Teacher Zheng’s house, she is a daughter.”
Fang Xiaoyue rolled her eyes at him and said, “Of course you’re not nervous. You call Sister Xiaoying ‘Sister Xiaoying’ so smoothly. I’m working under her.”
Chen Feng laughed, “That’s true. Let’s go, I’ll treat you to coffee.”
“You’re so kind?” Fang Xiaoyue looked at Chen Feng with some suspicion. She had asked Chen Feng out several times before, but he had never agreed.
“I have another favor to ask you,” Chen Feng said directly.
Hearing this, Fang Xiaoyue finally nodded with understanding. She didn’t feel anything wrong.
Not to mention Chen Feng’s relationship with Feng Xiaoying, just the fact that Chen Feng had helped her a lot before, as long as Chen Feng asked, she would definitely agree.
At a coffee shop, they ordered two cups of coffee and a plate of dessert. The two of them sat face to face. Chen Feng told her about opening a new shop and asked her to help with the relevant environmental protection procedures. Chen Feng had even prepared the relevant documents.
Fang Xiaoyue immediately agreed. This was just a piece of cake for her.
Fang Xiaoyue probably knew that Chen Feng was not interested in her. In addition, Chen Feng had said before that he already had a girlfriend, so she didn’t try to get closer to Chen Feng this time.
They mostly talked about interesting things in high school, or some current hot news.
After about half an hour, the two of them finished their coffee and went their separate ways.
Since he had come to the county town, Chen Feng of course went to find Guo Mengyao on the way. As a result, when he called, she was not at the hotel, but at the cosmetics factory she had just acquired. After asking for the address, Chen Feng drove over.
