Chapter 07 Little Grandson
Neither Zhang Kuang nor Dongyang took Maomao's words to heart, thinking that the child was just talking casually. After all, if he was really filial, he would not have no news for several years.
But the two of them never expected that their grandson would really come back a few days later and be filial to them!
At that time, Dongyang was squatting in the vegetable field in front of the house to pull weeds, sitting under the eaves and listening to the radio. The time was as slow as if someone had set it to 0.5 times the speed.
At this moment, the noisy voices came into Zhang Kuang's ears. He quickly turned off the radio and said loudly to Dongyang: "Someone is here, someone is here at home, and there are still several people who hear the sound."
Dongyang stood up and looked at the path, and he saw four people walking towards this side.
In addition to the village chief and his wife, there are two young men in their twenties, one is tall and strong, and the other is thin and small. Isn’t the thin and small and small grandson Maomao the old couple has always been thinking about?
Dongyang's first reaction must have been beyond everyone's expectations. She rushed out of the vegetable field as fast as possible in the past few days and walked to Zhang Kuang, and helped him into the house. It took about two minutes before she helped Zhang Kuang out again.
What did they do in the past two minutes after entering the house? Of course it is a collection of books!
Usually, there were only two of them at home, so they put their books in their pillowcases. Last time, the village chief’s wife came over to help sew bedding and was almost discovered. Fortunately, Dongyang found a topic to divert the village chief’s wife’s attention and then they escaped.
Now that my grandson is back, even if he wants to stay in this broken house for one night. If the book is not hidden properly, Maomao will find out that they will have to write a punishment paper again!
When Maomao was about twenty meters away from the old house, he threw all his luggage and things to the tall man and the village chief, and ran towards Dongyang and Zhang Kuang like a small cannonball, and then hugged them tightly.
Maomao cried first, Dongyang laughed and cried, and Zhang Kuang couldn't cry or laugh. The expressions of the three of this family were very interesting.
The village chief’s wife came over to comfort them and asked them to say something slowly. Don’t be excited. Meeting is a good thing, don’t make it like separation from life and death.
The place in the house was too small, and the village chief’s wife came into the house and moved the stool out for Dongyang and Zhang Kuang to sit on. The others either squatted or picked up a larger stone to sit on, which was very casual.
Maomao is the nickname of his grandson. His big name is Mao Yuan. He is 24 years old this year. He stopped studying before he finished high school. Because he did not have a diploma, he has suffered a lot outside, and his living conditions were better in the past two years.
Mao Yuan told the truth to Dongyang and Zhang Kuang: "Grandma, I know it's wrong for me to not contact you for so many years. I'm worried about you, but I really have no face to contact you. I'm not doing well outside. I don't make enough money for a month to spend. I share the rent in the basement with several people. There are mice crawling on us at night. I won't drive you into this little house. At that time, I want to contact you, and you must be more worried about me. I just thought to wait until I make money and contact you when the conditions are good. If the conditions allow, I will take you over and live together."
Dongyang gave a heartache expression at the right time, grabbed Mao Yuan's hand and asked worriedly: "Maomao, how are you doing now? Are you still living there? Are you full? Are you eating enough? If you don't eat well, don't go there again. Live with us at home. Your grandfather and I have land, so you can just leave it home and farm well."
This statement is too simple, but it is very consistent with the identity of an old lady. Her acting skills are simply impeccable.
"That was the first few years. Now the conditions are good, and the food and accommodation are good. Grandma, don't worry." Mao Yuan smiled with red eyes: "I just miss you so much. I want to come back to see you and stay at home for a while. When I go back, save some money to buy a house, and I will take you and grandpa over to live there."
Are houses in the capital so easy to buy?
Mao Yuan's words were not very credible, but it was enough to make the two old men happy. So Dongyang also looked very happy and patted Mao Yuan's hand and kept saying yes.
The grandparents and grandsons talked for a while, and the village chief and the tall young man also participated in the topic. As they chatted, they didn't know why they talked about the future development of the village.
Only then did Dongyang and Zhang Kuang realize why the houses in the village were so dilapidated.
It turned out that there were news in the early years that their villages would be moved away, and they would move them to convenient transportation places at the foot of the mountain. At that time, everyone would draw lots and divide the buildings, just like the people in the city.
Just for such news that I don’t know whether it is true or false, the village has not built a new house for several years, and no one has built a wall, and the overall look is dilapidated.
In fact, the conditions in the village are pretty good. Almost every family has gone out to work. One person can save tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands a year by saving money. It is not a problem to build a house and earnestly buy a small villa. The main reason is that there is no need.
Regarding the relocation of the village, the village chief went to the village for a meeting these days to get the latest good news - this matter is probably about to be implemented!
The construction project has been contracted and will start soon. How fast is the building now? It will be completed in a few months. After completion, the houses will be divided. In the case of Liu Erzhu and his wife, they will definitely arrange for them to live on the first floor. Others have to pay some money to enter and they don’t have to pay for money, so they can go there directly.
At this point, the village chief and the village chief’s wife looked at each other and forced the topic to Dongyang and Zhang Kuang.
"Uncle, look, our village is going to be moved away, and you will definitely have to move at that time. Since that's the case, it's better to move back to the village early. We can also help you move when we move the village, right?" said the village chief.
The village chief’s wife immediately responded, "It's not that what happened. You have to move sooner or later. Don't be stubborn. When you go back to the village, you forgot to take you to school to check it out. It's very well tidy inside. The place is warm in winter and cool in summer. If you want to grow vegetables, you will plow the playground for you. How great it is."
After saying that, the couple looked at Mao Yuan in unison, hoping that he could persuade him.
Sometimes, even a hundred words of advice from outsiders cannot match a word of advice from relatives. As long as Mao Yuan is willing to speak, the chance of success is high.
Mao Yuan was satisfied with the hope and spoke out for advice. He also said, "Grandma, it is not convenient for you to live here and come back to see you two. We will move to the village, and it is convenient for everything in the village to do. I can still call you and video in the future. How great it is."
Dongyang looked at Zhang Kuang, and Zhang Kuang was so happy that he was pretending to be stupid.
