Chapter 184 The old village chief

The older generation said that the hometown is hard to leave. The old village chief could obviously be an official in the city, but he chose to come back to be a village official. However, he passed the civil service exam during his life, but he took root in the city and did not want to come back.

I heard that they lived in a house allocated by the unit, more than 60 square meters, and after getting married, their grandson was about to go to elementary school. The small suite was already a little crowded, and at least it was difficult for the old village chief to squeeze in in the past.

The old village chief has never lived there, which is actually the reason, and it is really hard to disturb him. I guess his daughter-in-law doesn’t want him, a ‘countryman’, to disturb him.

The old village chief and his son gave Chen Ming the feeling that the changes in the two eras were made.

He knew very well that the old village chief was lying. This old man was not the kind of person who liked to disturb children. It was an obligation for his children to be filial to the elderly, but his son obviously forgot this. The old man didn't say it, just waited here silently.

Perhaps, his son is also using the excuse of "Who told you not to come to me so that I can see you and take good care of you" to pretend that the responsibility is not on him?

"At least, I can't let myself down in the past two years, right?" Chen Ming replied. He didn't plan to wear the lie of the old village chief, "The land in the countryside is not worth much, and it doesn't cost much to build a house. I'll calculate... There's a good three-story brick house for about 30,000 yuan, and you can get all the water, electricity and other things. I'll have this, right?"

"What do you mean? Do you have pity for me?" the old village chief cursed with a smile.

"After all, you have been supporting me for more than ten years. Can't I take care of you when I become rich?" Chen Ming smiled. "Besides, after you have been a hundred years, this house will probably be a little worthwhile. You can leave it for your son to retire, or sell it to buy a better house in the city."

"……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

After all, I still owe it. When I was young, I went to the army and my son and wife stayed at home and couldn’t take good care of her. When I came back, I realized that my wife was gone. She was not sick, but she ran away. I heard that she lived a good life after going to the city.

It was probably from that time that the old village chief felt guilty towards his son and cultivated him to the greatest extent. The other party did not disappoint his training, passed the civil service exam, and now he has become the section chief.

After leaving some connection, it was the result of the old village chief shooting his face and finding the old leader to help. This was the first time he had been living for so long. Perhaps he knew very well that his son had no background, so it was almost impossible to become a section chief.

But in fact, he had already consumed all his favors. It was probably impossible for his son to go further.

If the career cannot be improved, it depends on the education of the next generation. Good education often requires a lot of expenses. Fortunately, civil servants cannot have a second child, otherwise the education fund will be more. He is just a retired old village chief, so what money can he have?

After chatting for a few words, the old village chief had to go and arrange some food tonight. He ran out immediately, probably to ask the neighbor for a chicken or something, and probably to buy some pork or something.

The vegetables are fine, but the old village chief planted them himself, and it is probably hidden in the cellar now.

"Let's... help clean it up a little?" Chen Ming suggested that after all, an old man's supplies were indeed a bit messy.

"Well..." Lin Manman nodded. She liked Chen Ming very much and did not treat her as an outsider.

When the old village chief came back, the house was cleaned up and some things that I didn’t know whether to be needed were temporarily installed and waited for the old village chief to tell them.

Some things they may seem like garbage, maybe they are treasures of the old village chief. Helping others clean up their houses, the basic etiquette is to install all the things they have been sorted out first, and don’t throw them away casually.

"You..." The old village chief came back about twenty minutes later, but when he came back, he saw that the house was clean. When the two were still cleaning up further, he felt that he was holding a word in his heart, but he couldn't say it.

His son has never cleaned him like this. He hasn't come back after seeing the Chinese New Year. Instead, he called him to invite him over. But didn't he know that he couldn't bear to leave here? He couldn't bear to bother them?

Then he hung up the phone and lived a three-person world with peace of mind. He had to complain about the old village chief's "pedantic" and didn't know whether it was his low emotional intelligence or his son who had never really valued his father?

"It's also idle." Chen Ming put down the rag in his hand and smiled at the old village chief.

"I'll cook later, no one of you can come to help!" The old village chief pursed his lips, finally said a harsh word, and ran towards the kitchen. By the way, he closed the door and was determined not to come and help the two of them.

"The old village chief has a very unique personality." Lin Manman smiled.

"I just want to live with my face." Chen Ming shook his head. To put it bluntly, he was just a cute old man.

In the evening, the old village chief prepared several dishes, not only mutton, chicken and fish, but also vegetables and soup, and even a cold dish and peanuts for wine.

"Don't expect me to drink with you..." Chen Ming complained.

"I am fifteen years old, so I don't learn how to drink. When I was so old and I knew to steal my father's wine." The old village chief didn't care at all and poured him a glass of sweet potato soup. "It's just a dozen degrees of sweet potato soup, the level of beer. I won't take out sweet potato soup, you kid can't drink it, so don't waste it."

Chen Ming had no choice but to do anything. The old village chief could not refuse his affection, so he could only raise his glass and drink it all.

This thing has not fermented much. It is made of pure sweet potato wine, and it is the sweet potato with more sugar. It tastes very comfortable to drink sweetly. After drinking it, the blood flow rate slightly accelerates.

"Tell you..." the old village chief looked at Chen Ming, "Wine is a good thing. If you drink a drink every day, you can live at least ten years longer. But you can't be overdoing anything. It's not good if you are overdoing anything."

"Why do I think you mean something?" Chen Ming joked.

"You understand yourself. Whatever you think is all about me, what does it have to do with me?" the old village chief smiled, looking like he succeeded in his treacherous plan.

Chen Ming did think of something for a moment, but his understanding of the old village chief must have been referring to this side just now. He probably felt that he was still young and was not suitable to be addicted to women... This is something you need to worry about?

He and Lin Manman are at most holding hands.

If it weren't for the previous accident, I guess I wouldn't know whether I could become a boyfriend or girlfriend. Besides, some things can of course be done after getting married!

"Come on, have a great time to have a drink tonight!" The old village chief obviously planned to fool him, so he immediately poured a cup for Chen Ming.

"Who is the one who said that you can't be overly ill?" Chen Ming complained, but he did not refuse.
