PDLP Chapter 32 Wang Jun's Family
Chapter 32 Wang Jun's Family
Sun Ran and his family were having dinner, while on the other side of the city, in a villa in an upscale residential area...
"Mmm, it tastes just as good as free-range chickens."
In the restaurant, Wang Rucheng picked up a piece of chicken, put it in his mouth, and exclaimed.
He is Wang Jun's father, and this chicken is the one Sun Ran gave him yesterday, except it has never drunk the spiritual spring water.
But even a regular free-range chicken would taste different to him.
"Yes, live chickens aren't allowed to be sold in the city now. If we want to eat some fresh ones, we have to ask Aunt Liu to go all the way to buy them. Speaking of which, we should thank Xiao Ran. She still thinks of us even though we haven't seen each other for so long."
Lu Jie, standing to the side, also smiled and nodded.
"Hmm, speaking of Xiao Ran, I wonder how Lao Sun and the others are doing lately..."
Wang Rucheng pondered for a moment, then turned to his son: "You and Xiaoran should keep in touch more often. If he has any difficulties, try your best to help him out."
"By the way, he graduated this year, right?"
"Yeah, he just graduated, but it seems like it's hard for him to find a job. I asked him if he wanted to come and help out at my company, but he didn't seem very interested."
Wang Jun was happily gnawing on a chicken wing over there. Since chicken wouldn't make him fat, he ate it without any guilt.
At worst, I'll just spit out the goosebumps.
"Is it because you think my salary is too low?" Lu Jie asked, sounding puzzled.
"No, from what I heard, he wanted to help take care of things at home more. Aunt Zhou is getting old, and it seems like she's having trouble managing the farm work."
Wang Jun slurped up a couple of chicken bones, tossed them onto the plate, wiped his hands, and said...
"How can that be? He's so young. How much can he earn farming in the village? Didn't you try to persuade him?"
Lu Jie looked worried, while Wang Rucheng shook his head beside her.
"You can't say that. Farming depends on the situation. If you have the technology and the products, and you can scale up, then it's a different story. But given the situation in the village, I think it's difficult..."
"That's not necessarily true!"
At this point, Wang Jun suddenly became excited: "Mom and Dad, Sun Ran didn't just send these vegetables this time, he also sent something really nice!"
"Oh? What good stuff?"
Lu Jie looked at her son and couldn't help but laugh: "Let me guess, is it ham that Sister Zhou cured herself?"
"I remember you used to love eating the fatty parts of the ham the most."
"Mom, what are you guessing? All you ever think about is food!"
Wang Jun's face darkened as he looked at her: "It's not ham, it's honey tea!"
"Honey tea?"
Lu Jie and Wang Rucheng exchanged a surprised look: "Is there anything special about this?"
"Of course it's special!"
Wang Jun strode into the kitchen and came out carrying two disposable cups like a prized possession.
He didn't give any of the tea to his parents when he brought it home yesterday.
After all, he drank a cup himself and, apart from finding the taste quite good, he didn't notice any sleep-aiding effects, so he didn't mention it.
Unexpectedly, he only experienced the effects of honey tea after turning off the lights and touching his pillow last night.
I closed my eyes, opened them again, and it was dawn.
You should know that he has been busy with company affairs during this period, looking for projects and negotiating business outside.
I've done a lot of drinking and socializing, making PPTs, staying up all night working on contracts and planning projects, and my biological clock has long been out of control.
How many times do I have to toss and turn counting hundreds of sheep before I can fall asleep?
Unexpectedly, after drinking a cup of honey tea during the day, I slept soundly until dawn.
"Come on, Dad, Mom, you should have a cup too. This tea is really effective; I guarantee you'll fall asleep the moment your head hits the pillow after drinking it."
After Wang Jun poured warm water into the cup, he pushed it forward, causing Lu Jie and Wang Rucheng to be somewhat stunned: "Drinking it will make you fall asleep? Honey tea?"
Wang Rucheng frowned: "Honey has this effect? Could there be sleeping pills or something in this tea?"
"Definitely not!"
Wang Jun shook his head: "Sleeping pills and melatonin have to be taken before bed. This tea can be drunk during the day without any problem, but it only works when you go to sleep at night."
"That's amazing?"
Wang Rucheng and his wife exchanged a glance, both somewhat skeptical. In the end, it was only after Wang Jun's strong persuasion that they picked up their cups and drank.
Having weathered many storms, they certainly wouldn't believe such a claim that sounds like an old Chinese medicine doctor selling medicine.
However, after finishing the cup of tea, I had to praise the honey.
After all, the taste is really good.
Seeing his parents laughing and joking, Wang Jun was so angry he almost lost his temper.
Believe it or not, you'll find out when you wake up from your sleep!
She turned around, grabbed her phone, and hurried upstairs to her room.
After going up there, he didn't do anything. He just opened WeChat, clicked on his girlfriend's profile picture, and started having a long phone conversation.
Two whole hours!
The first hour and a half was spent talking about company matters.
It turns out that his girlfriend also works as a software technical support person at his company.
After discussing work and exchanging pleasantries for half an hour, he finally changed the subject...
"Honey, I sent you a package this morning. It should arrive tomorrow. Remember to check it then."
They had only been dating for half a year and were still in the honeymoon phase. In addition, they had been living apart for some time. As the saying goes, distance makes the heart grow fonder, so their video chats were exceptionally cheesy.
"A package? What is it?"
However, the person on the phone screen seemed much calmer than him.
Wearing large glasses and a bathrobe, he stretched and yawned, causing a ripple that nearly made Wang Jun's eyes pop out.
"Hehe, that must be good stuff! My brother gave me this honey tea, and it's amazing at helping me sleep!"
"Does it help with sleep?"
On the other end of the phone, Ye Ling yawned and stared blankly at the camera: "Did they add sleeping pills or melatonin? I wouldn't dare take those randomly, it would be troublesome if they affected my memory."
"No, no, I definitely didn't add any of those weird things!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Jun quickly shook his head and repeated his previous explanation, looking at the screen with a pained expression at the end:
"Honey, look at your dark circles! Remember to make yourself a cup of tea as soon as you receive the package, it'll guarantee you a good night's sleep!"
"Okay, I got it."
Ye Ling let out another long yawn: "Is everything alright? I'm going to go write some code now, you should go to sleep early too."
"Huh? Still writing so late?"
"Yeah, the deadline is in two days, so we need to finish it quickly. We also need to debug and test for bugs tomorrow."
"Alright then, take care of yourself. Remember, when you receive the package tomorrow, make yourself a cup of tea, okay?"
"Okay, goodnight~ Love you~"
"Okay, goodnight!"
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Wang Jun reluctantly hung up the phone.
He rolled over and lay sprawled on the bed, staring at the ceiling.
If it weren't for the fact that there was so much equipment to move at the company, and I had to keep an eye on it myself, I would have loved to drive it over there myself.
Ugh……
I wonder if she'll be able to get a good night's sleep like I do after she finishes her tea...
What a pity, if only I could be by her side...
Now things are really messed up. I'm tossing and turning in bed, and even the honey tea I drank during the day isn't helping.
