Chapter 1607: Transfer of Residence, First Meeting with Hu Qiumin

On the first day of coming to Linqi Oilfield Base, Zhou Chen felt warm. Zhou Limin and Ren Xiuyun were very enthusiastic and caring, fearing that they would mistreat him.

Zhou Chen could understand this feeling. After all, they would live together in the future, but they were not their own children. So even if Zhou Chen behaved openly, they were still very reserved, and even a little flattering.

Zhou Limin and Ren Xiuyun had no children, not because they followed the example of DINK, but because they could not have children.

When the two of them first started, in order to have children, they had seen many doctors and traveled to big cities. Ren Xiuyun had tried all kinds of folk remedies and suffered a lot, but her stomach still had no reaction.

In this day and age, raising children to prevent old age has always been a deep-rooted idea, especially for those who are the only child in the family, they care more about the inheritance of their descendants. In addition, seeing other people's families have soft and sticky babies, but their own family does not have them, that feeling is really uncomfortable.

This is still in the oilfield base. If it were placed in the countryside, people would definitely laugh at them behind their backs and would never be able to raise their heads for the rest of their lives.

The two tried for many years, but to no avail, so they gave up in the end. Ren Xiuyun even thought about adopting a child, but was rejected by Zhou Limin in a stern manner.

Although he wanted a child, he didn't want to raise a child who had nothing to do with him. Even relatives would have conflicts, and he couldn't give his whole heart to raising and loving an adopted child who had no blood relationship.

They had already given up the idea of ​​having a child, but who would have thought that such a thing happened in their hometown, so after Zhou Limin told Ren Xiuyun about the situation, Ren Xiuyun thought about it for a while and agreed to Zhou Limin's decision. The only thing she was worried about was the child's attitude.

But after the meal, Ren Xiuyun was really relieved. She could feel that Zhou Chen was not against them, and the child was very sensible and polite. Although she couldn't understand the feeling of being a mother raising a child since childhood, she was very happy that the family could have a child without worries.

She felt that as long as they treated Zhou Chen sincerely, Zhou Chen would definitely not ignore them when they were old, and they would not become lonely and helpless old people.

Ren Xiuyun really took good care of Zhou Chen. The bed was made, the room was fumigated with incense, and a teapot and cup were placed in Zhou Chen's room, so he didn't have to go outside the bedroom to get water to drink at night...

Zhou Chen's ability to adapt to the environment is absolutely top-notch. He lay on the bed, but did not sleep, but continued to watch the TV series.

There are only 30 episodes in total, and it is double speed. Zhou Chen only stayed up all night to finish the whole show.

After watching the whole show, he didn't have any special feelings. He felt that everything was normal. Although Li Si was killed in the end, isn't this the feature of domestic dramas? Just when you think the final reunion is over, it seems like a mission is completed, and one or two main characters are forcibly killed, forcibly sensational, giving people a feeling of both want and want.

It wants the audience to think that this is a youth comedy, and also wants the audience to understand that the core of comedy is tragedy. In the end, it turned out to be a mess. How could it not be scolded by the audience? It deserves to be scolded.

In general, this drama is mainly about three families and the youth experiences of a group of teenagers, but there is relatively little love.

This is still good. Unlike some TV dramas, it is obviously just a high school campus, but they have to engage in various premature love, various pretentious and handsome, and the male characters seem to have never seen a woman. When they see the female protagonist, they lick her like a lapdog.

As Zhou Chen, who grew up in a campus, anyway, when he was in high school at that time, which was about 10 years ago, the eternal topic in their school was still mainly learning.

In addition to learning, the topics of boys are either playing games, watching football games, etc., and discussing girls is just to see whether they are beautiful or not. There are very few messy ideas, while girls listen to music, watch TV, chase stars, etc.

There are definitely cases of premature love, but they are definitely very rare. At least there won't be all kinds of bloody plots like in TV dramas. It's no exaggeration to say that there are more fights in schools than premature love.

Of course, the students born after 2000 are different. The bloody incidents that happen on campus are probably more exaggerated than those in TV dramas.

The background of the drama "Youth in the Wind" is before 2000. Most of the students at that time were relatively simple and their minds were not so complicated, especially in a relatively closed place like an oil field. Everyone is an acquaintance who knows each other, so there are naturally fewer things between students.

After watching this drama, there is no need to say anything about the main quest, which needs to be developed by himself.

As for the three side quests, Zhou Chen thinks it shouldn't be difficult. Zhou Chen can suppress a small Yuan Yong with one hand. As long as he finds the right time and catches him, it will be easy.

Xiaohua's wish to study is actually not difficult in his opinion, because she can't study, in the final analysis, it's all because of money. Her parents want her to go out to work and earn money for her brother's betrothal gift.

Speaking of the bride price, Zhou Chen was really angry. In ancient times, the bride price was high because the woman's dowry was also high. If there was no dowry, the bride price would simply buy off the daughter's relationship.

As a result, nowadays, the dowry is invisible, and the bride price is still damn expensive. If you meet a powerful family, even if you get married, the woman still has to subsidize her brothers in the family.

It's no wonder that many modern people want to raise daughters instead of sons. When a son marries a daughter-in-law, it's not marrying a daughter-in-law, it's marrying a whole family.

So in Zhou Chen's opinion, Xiaohua's side quest of wanting to study is not a big problem.

Only Li Si's problem is more uncertain, because he only knows that Li Si was diagnosed with advanced colorectal cancer in May next year, but he has not met Li Si yet, so he naturally has no way of knowing when he got the colorectal cancer.

As a national-level doctor, he naturally knows that there are many cases of colorectal cancer. This disease has few symptoms in the early stage, and it is often in the late stage when something is wrong. Moreover, this disease develops very quickly, from the early stage to the late stage, it may take a few years at the slowest, or a year or even a few months at the fastest.

Just like Li Si in the plot, he was always lively before the diagnosis, and he usually had diarrhea more often. This is also because he didn't take it seriously, and his parents were too busy and lacked care for him, otherwise they would definitely find something wrong.

As long as colorectal cancer is discovered early and in the early stage, the chance of being cured by surgery is still very high, and it will not affect life in the later stage. Therefore, if you want to save Li Si, you must first determine what his current situation is, which can only be known after meeting him.

The protagonists in the play have their own characteristics. Cheng Miaomiao is a troublemaker, Cheng Yaya and Li Si are in love, Hu Qiumin is a brother-con, and Yuan Shanqing is a poor little guy. In comparison, it seems that Qiang Xiaowa should be considered relatively normal.

However, these people are indeed very loyal. Li Si has the best family conditions, but he has a very good character and can be regarded as a public-spirited person. In short, he is a good boy.

If such a good boy can be saved, Zhou Chen will definitely do his best to help.

Zhou Chen did not sleep all night, but he was still very energetic. Ren Xiuyun went to work after cooking. After Zhou Limin and Zhou Chen finished their meal, he took Zhou Chen to handle the transfer of household registration.

Because Zhou Limin had already prepared the household registration transfer procedures and various certificates when he was in his hometown, as long as the local government agreed to accept it and the procedures were complete, it was not difficult to transfer the household registration.

It's just that the identity is a little troublesome, because although Zhou Limin and Zhou Chen are close relatives within three generations, they are not direct relatives. Generally, nephews cannot transfer their household registration to their uncles.

But this is not a problem, because before coming, Zhou Limin had consulted, and he asked Zhou Chen to transfer his household registration, not as a nephew, but as an adopted son.

Zhou Limin and Sun Xiuyun meet the adoption conditions, and Zhou Chen is under 18 years old, which also meets the adoption conditions. In addition, Zhou Chen has no other relatives, so as long as Zhou Chen is willing and the procedures are complete, he can directly transfer his household registration to Zhou Limin and Sun Xiuyun as an adopted son.

Zhou Chen naturally has no objection to this, and he will not reject it. He has lost a relative in the first place, and he is just a nominal adoptive father and adopted son, and he doesn't have to change his name to call his parents. What's there to be unwilling about.

What's more, this is the best way for him to stay in Linqi Oilfield. He must stay in the oilfield to complete the task issued by the system.

All conditions were met, and the procedures were in place. Zhou Limin found someone, so the process was very fast, and the review and other processes could be completed within a week to get the household registration.

After completing the household registration, Zhou Limin happily took Zhou Chen to the county shopping mall. When he arrived, he saw Sun Xiuyun standing at the door in work clothes.

Sun Xiuyun had to go to work today, but during the lunch break, she came out on purpose to buy clothes for Zhou Chen.

Yesterday she saw the clothes Zhou Limin brought, most of which were very old-fashioned, picked up from others, or had patches, so she thought of buying a few new clothes for Zhou Chen. Since the child came to live with them, he is their own child. She didn't have the opportunity to buy clothes for the child before, but now she has the opportunity, so of course she is happy.

Especially in the process of buying clothes, when the vendors flattered and praised her, she was even more happy, because these vendors all praised her like this.

"Oh, sister, your son is so handsome, tall and handsome, with big eyes and double eyelids, so lucky."

"Comrade, your son is so handsome, this dress suits him best..., let me tell you, it matches him, the dress is suitable, and the main thing is that he is handsome."

"Sister, your son looks like you, it is said that sons look like their mothers, the old saying still makes sense."

"Comrade, you should buy bigger shoes, your son is only seventeen, and his feet will definitely grow in the future, a bigger size can wear it longer."

"…………"

Whenever she heard someone say that Zhou Chen was her son, Ren Xiuyun's smile became brighter, especially when she saw that Zhou Chen did not explain or refute, she was even happier. Even Zhou Limin, who always disliked shopping, was very happy.

After a round of shopping, Ren Xiuyun and Zhou Chen bought several sets of clothes, including spring and autumn clothes, summer clothes, and spent hundreds of dollars, but Ren Xiuyun did not feel sorry at all.

She and her husband both work at the oil field base, and they are both formal workers. Their salary is not low. They don't have children and don't have much expenses. Except for the few years after marriage when they went to see doctors everywhere, they haven't spent much money in these years. The family has a lot of savings.

"Xiaochen, wear these clothes when you go back. I will buy you more when they are worn out."

"Thank you, auntie, for your expense."

"This child, you are talking in a polite way. It is natural for your auntie to buy you clothes. Don't say such things in the future." Ren Xiuyun said in a serious tone.

Zhou Chen nodded. Who would refute someone who really cares about him?

After buying clothes for Zhou Chen, Ren Xiuyun went back to work, and Zhou Chen went home with Zhou Limin. Zhou Limin took a half-month leave for Zhou Chen's matter.

"Xiaochen, I'll turn on the TV for you. If you feel bored, I can also take you out for a walk and get familiar with our base."

Zhou Chen said: "Uncle, don't bother you. If I want to go out, I will go out for a walk by myself."

"Okay, here is the key to the house. I'll go to the class this afternoon and take a look. I'll be back soon."

"Yeah."

As soon as Zhou Limin left, Zhou Chen was the only one left at home. He didn't have time to look at it yesterday, but today he looked around the house.

It's an ordinary two-bedroom apartment, but the area is not small, it can be 100 square meters, which is the practical area.

However, in this room design, the two rooms are not facing the sun, and the living room and kitchen are facing the sun. However, considering that this is a house allocated by the unit, there is no need to have such high requirements.

Zhou Chen stayed in the house for a while, felt bored, and took the key to go out for a walk.

Although the Linqi Oilfield Base is located in Heping Town, it is very large in scale and area. It is one of the largest oilfields in Northeast China. There are also many people in the base. There are several middle schools for children of oilfield students here, so the living conditions of the residents in the base are very good, which can be seen from the TV series.

In 1997, the living conditions of people in most parts of the country were generally poor, but the living conditions in the oilfields were really above the standard line.

After walking outside for two hours, Zhou Chen basically figured out the main routes in the base.

Because of its unique geographical location, Linqi Oilfield is backed by the Bohai Sea in the east and the Yellow River in the west, so it has rich natural resources. The base can be completely self-sufficient, which also leads to many people in the base willing to stay here for a lifetime, just like Li Si, he is looking forward to taking over his father's job in the future.

But there are also many people who yearn for the outside world, such as Cheng Miaomiao and Hu Qiumin, they all want to see the big cities outside and don't want to stay in the oilfield base for a lifetime.

On the way back, Zhou Chen met a long-haired girl in school uniform at the door of the apartment building. When she saw Zhou Chen, she was obviously stunned, especially when she saw Zhou Chen actually followed her upstairs, her expression was even more puzzled.

When they arrived on the third floor, the girl was ready to open the door of 302, while Zhou Chen walked to 301, took out the key and opened the door to enter the house.

Seeing Zhou Chen open the door and enter 301, Hu Qiumin was surprised. Uncle Zhou, who lives opposite, has no children at home. She naturally knew that, but what happened just now? How could that strange boy have the key to Uncle Zhou's house?

"What are you doing, Xiaomin? Why don't you come in when the door is open?"

The voice of her mother Hu Yue came from the house. Hu Qiumin immediately walked into the house and closed the door.

"Mom, I just saw a boy holding a key and entering Uncle Zhou's house. Is that a relative of theirs?"

Hu Yue walked to the sofa and sat down to fold clothes.

"Oh, you're talking about this. I just found out today that a boy came to their house. I heard that he is Zhou Limin's cousin from his hometown. Something happened at home and he lost his relatives. Zhou Limin brought him back. By the way, this child is seventeen years old like you this year and is in the first year of high school. Today, your aunt Ren came to me to ask for help to introduce your aunt Ling. I heard that your aunt Ling is very familiar with the dean of your school and wants to transfer this child to the second middle school to study in the first year of high school."

"So that's the case. I said I haven't seen him, but doesn't our school in Linqi Oilfield accept students from other places?"

"Where did you see him when you just came? Your aunt Ren said that the child's household registration was transferred to their name. The couple has no children. I guess they are planning to raise this child as a son. The household registration is in the base, so he can naturally go to the second middle school."

Ren Xiuyun asked Hu Yue for help, and naturally told her about Zhou Chen's situation.

"If this child goes to No. 2 Middle School, you will be classmates, and you live next door. Your uncle Zhou and his family are usually very enthusiastic and have helped us. They are good neighbors. If you can help him in the future, please help him. After all, he came from a rural area and must not be used to our base, especially after going to school."

"Ah? Okay, but we have to wait until he transfers to our school."

Although Hu Qiumin felt embarrassed, she still agreed. After all, Zhou Chen was a boy, and she didn't know how she could help, but she still had to listen to her mother.

"By the way, Mom, what's his name?"

"Let me think, it seems to be Zhou Chen."
