South to North: A Prison Guard at the Beginning

Chapter 360 Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang

Zhou Xiaobai opened the book and saw that there were pinyin notations on it, and he immediately laughed.

"Oh, our Xiaohao can now read the four great classics."

But Yuan Mu didn't think so, because he just clearly saw Yuan Zhihao quickly walk to the table and close a book with a light red cover. His eyesight was very good. The title of the book was "Hamle", which means Hamlet. It is a work by John Bull writer Shakespeare.

If he was not mistaken, this book seemed to be in English. Except for the pages which were numbered, the rest of the book was all in English. Yuan Mu could read it, but why would a four-year-old child read such a book?

So he walked forward and picked up the book. Yuan Zhihao, who was standing next to him, changed his expression when he saw this scene, but he quickly calmed himself down and continued talking to Zhou Xiaobai.

"Xiao Hao, is this the book you read?" Yuan Mu raised the book in his hand and looked at Yuan Zhihao.

Hearing this, Yuan Zhihao and Zhou Xiaobai looked over, and Zhou Xiaobai gave Yuan Mu a helpless look.

"I say, can you be more reliable? This is a book in English. Xiaohao is only four years old. Do you think he can understand it?"

"Dad, I was taking a book from the bookcase and this book fell out, but I'm too short to put it back, so I have to leave it here." Yuan Zhihao also explained.

It would have been fine if he didn't explain. This explanation made Yuan Mu even more confused. If it were an ordinary child, he would have spoken haltingly and incoherently. However, his son's logical thinking was too strong, which was not like that of a child.

Although he had many doubts in his mind, Zhou Xiaobai didn't notice it at all and continued to talk and laugh with him. Yuan Mu also smiled bitterly. It seemed that he had been a policeman for too long and was suspicious of everything. He even suspected his own son.

After having dinner at Zhou's house in the evening, Yuan Mu and Zhou Xiaobai took Yuan Zhihao back to the courtyard. Originally, Zhou Xiaobai wanted to take Yuan Zhihao with him and have the three of them sleep together, but who would have thought that Yuan Zhihao didn't want to at all. He said that he always slept alone at his grandma's house.

Yuan Mu agreed with this point. A boy who was already four years old should have slept alone. Yuan Zhihao's room was right next to him and very close.

"Xiaobai, let's take Xiaohao away after the New Year." Leaning on the bed, Yuan Mu looked at Zhou Xiaobai beside him and said.

"Yeah, I had the same idea. I suddenly felt that my son seemed to have changed a lot after coming back. I don't want to miss his growth." Zhou Xiaobai nodded.

"Okay, let's discuss it with our parents tomorrow and take him to Harbin to attend the Yuhong class after the New Year." Yuan Mu nodded.

"You will probably have to stay in Harbin for at least three years. By then, Xiaohao will also be attending elementary school in Harbin."

"Yes, although the education in Harbin may not be as good as that in Kyoto, it is not bad either. There is no problem for him to go to elementary school. When Xiaohao grows up and goes to junior high school, we will send him back to Kyoto to study."

"Well, that's okay too."

"By the way, Dad called you to the study again today. What did he say to you?"

"We talked about work and then about having another child." Yuan Mu shook his head helplessly.

"Oh!" Zhou Xiaobai sighed when he mentioned this.

It's not that she doesn't want to have a child or that she can't have one. She is not even 40 yet, so having a child is no problem at all. She is also in very good health. The most important thing is that now is the period of family planning. Yuan Mu and she are both leading cadres and outstanding party members. They already have one child in the family. If they have another one, it will have some negative impact.

Of course, with the Zhou family's ability and influence, no one will say much, but this matter can be big or small, it depends on how to handle it.

"I wish I had given birth to twins." Zhou Xiaobai sighed again and shook his head.

"Why are you talking about that? It's all destined. You can't just give birth to twins whenever you want. Let's wait and see. I'll talk to dad about this tomorrow." Yuan Mu shook his head.

. . . . . . . . . .

The next morning, Yuan Mu was playing with his son in the yard when the nanny came over and told him that someone came to visit him. Yuan Mu wondered who was coming.

"Who is it? Did you mention a name?" Yuan Mu asked.

"Yes, one is Zhong Yuemin and the other is Zhang Haiyang."

"Oh? It's them. Come on, let them in." Yuan Mu laughed when he heard this.

"Son, play by yourself for a while." He turned and walked into the house.

"Xiaobai! Xiaobai!"

"What's wrong?" Hearing Yuan Mu's call, Zhou Xiaobai walked out of the room.

"The Leap People and the Ocean are here."

"Ah? Really? Where is it?" Zhou Xiaobai was very happy to hear this.

"They will be here soon, let's go meet them." As they spoke, the two of them walked towards the central courtyard and soon saw two men in military uniforms, who were Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang.

"Haha! Yuemin! Haiyang! Long time no see!" Yuan Mu walked over with a laugh.

"Lao Yuan! Xiaobai! Long time no see!" Both of them had smiles on their faces.

"Yuemin, Haiyang, long time no see." Zhou Xiaobai also greeted them with a smile.

"Come in quickly, let's talk inside. Sister Liu, make a pot of tea for me!" Yuan Mu led the two of them into the house.

"Hey! This is your son, right?" Several people came to the backyard and saw Yuan Zhihao making a snowman.

"Yes, he's my son." Yuan Mu smiled and then waved to Yuan Zhihao.

"Son, come here!"

When Yuan Zhihao heard his father's call, he ran over happily. He looked at Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Son, these two are friends of mom and dad. You can call this one Uncle Zhong and this one Uncle Zhang." Yuan Mu said with a smile.

"Hello, Uncle Zhong, hello, Uncle Zhang!" Yuan Zhihao greeted the two of them very politely.

"Xiao Hao, hello to you too." The two of them greeted him with a smile.

"Old Yuan, he was only a little boy when I saw him last time, and now he has grown so big in the blink of an eye."

"Of course I am. I am already four years old this year."

"That's great. Come on, Xiaohao, this is the New Year's money we two give you!" Zhong Yuemin glanced at Zhang Haiyang, and they both nodded, then took out a red envelope from their pockets.

"Hey! Yuemin, Haiyang, there's no need for this." Seeing this, Zhou Xiaobai hurriedly stopped the two of them.

"Tsk! Xiaobai, this isn't for you either, it's for the child. Come on, Xiaohao, take it."

Yuan Zhihao didn't reach out to take it, but looked at his parents. Yuan Mu and Zhou Xiaobai also looked at each other and finally nodded.

"Okay then, take it if you give it to me."

"Thank you Uncle Zhong, thank you Uncle Zhang."
