Chapter 494 Fireworks
This is how the elderly think. After staying in one place for decades, moving to a new place where you are unfamiliar with life will make you unable to overcome the psychological hurdle.
Song Yuanchao remembered that in his previous life, Zhang's aunt and her family had moved away due to relocation. Song Yuanchao also moved away at that time. Some of his familiar neighbors had gone to their new homes. Although the conditions in the new home were much better than where they lived before, those around him
Things disappeared immediately.
Although Song Yuanchao was not far from the Zhang family and the others after moving to his new home, he usually took the time to visit her when he had time. However, the new workhouse was completely different from the alley, lacking the trivial details of neighbors, let alone the kind of
The alley is full of life.
Perhaps for this reason, the Zhang family's mother gradually began to lose weight not long after she moved to her new home. In addition, it was inconvenient for older people upstairs and downstairs to walk up the stairs. Zhang Jianguo and his wife had to go to work at that time, and their children also had to go to work.
Gradually, I grew up and started my own life. During the day, there was no one at home. An old man was alone and could not go out. He could only pass the time by relying on the radio or TV.
Thinking of this, Song Yuanchao sighed in his heart. It was not like this in his previous life! Song Yuanchao deeply understands the loneliness and loneliness of the old man.
Walking into the alley and looking at the familiar surroundings, Song Yuanchao suddenly had an idea in his mind. Maybe he could change the pattern of this place in his previous life. In his previous life, this alley was directly demolished and all the residents inside were moved away. In the original
Three high-rise buildings were built here on the old site. Although the new buildings are magnificent and look much more beautiful than the original old alleys, the reinforced concrete forest has forever lost its original feeling of life, and it no longer has the past.
The buzz and popularity.
Looking back on the past, Song Yuanchao remembered that this area was relocated around 1996. The relocation discussion was probably in the first half of 1995. Maybe he could directly talk to the district about the real estate development here around 1994. Of course, Song Yuanchao had no intention of talking to his previous life.
Some real estate developers demolished this area and then built high-rise buildings.
Song Yuanchao's idea was to completely transform this alley, that is, to use the "Xinli" method of later generations to transform it, maintain the original style, and start from the internal structure and underground.
In this way, the old alley becomes a new neighborhood, the living conditions are greatly improved, and it also becomes a unique scenery.
The famous landmark "Xintiandi" in Shanghai has this model. Of course, Xintiandi is commercial, and what Song Yuanchao wants to do is residential. This is somewhat similar to the equally famous "Jianyeli", but Jianyeli adopts all the
The model was to rebuild and sell after relocation and resettlement, but Song Yuanchao did not intend to do this.
Song Yuanchao may choose to partially relocate and renovate, and partially have the residents pay for the additional area for renovation. Although it may be quite stressful to pay part of the money in the early stage, in the long term, the appreciation in value after a few years or more than ten years will be
The magnitude is astonishing, and more importantly, the popularity and things that have lasted for decades can be well preserved here.
It is not easy to achieve this step. How many households are there in the alley, how big is the area, and how much investment is needed? The initial estimate is an astronomical figure. However, Song Yuanchao believes that he can definitely do it, and it will be worth it no matter how much investment he makes.
Song Yuanchao didn't want to make any money from this, because he just wanted to preserve the things he was familiar with intact. Here are his family, friends, and old neighbors who have lived together for decades, and more importantly, he is here
The home has traces left by parents and ancestors.
If there is no more here, then these things will disappear completely and will never be found again. Song Yuanchao does not want to see such a result. At this moment, he firmly remembers this matter and will definitely do it when the time is right.
When we returned to the alley, the Zhang family's mother-in-law was picking up vegetables because it was time to have lunch soon.
Xiao Haozi and Xiao Pingping have to go home after class at 11:30. After having lunch and taking a break, they have to go back to school. The Zhang family's mother is used to this pace of life. Xiao Pingping would not go to school before.
She picked up vegetables with her mother and helped prepare lunch, but now her two children are in school, Zhang Jianguo and his wife are at work, and she is the only one at home.
Sitting on the small bench at the door, I picked out the vegetables from the vegetable basket. While picking it up, I chatted with the grandmother of the Li family next door. They talked about trivial household things, but they talked with gusto.
"Aniang!" I saw Zhang family's aunty from a distance. I haven't seen her for a long time. My auntie seems to be in good spirits, but her hair is whiter than when Song Yuanchao left last time. Looking at her kind face, and
Song Yuanchao's nose felt slightly sore at the crisp voice, and he quickly walked over.
She is old and has some hearing loss. The Zhang family woman was stunned for a moment, as if she was trying to determine if someone was calling her. The Li family woman on the side reacted quickly. When she heard the sound, she looked up, patted her arm and said with a smile:
"Look! It's Yuan Chao who is back. Your eldest grandson is back!"
"Ah! The aid to the Korean War has come back?" Zhang's mother hurriedly looked in the direction of her finger. Although her eyesight was a little blurry, she could still clearly see the person walking quickly towards her not far away.
Is it Song Yuanchao?
Standing up subconsciously, Zhang's mother-in-law showed an unconcealable smile on her face and couldn't help but walk towards Song Yuanchao.
The three steps merged into two steps, and Song Yuanchao stepped forward to support the Zhang family's aunt.
"Auntie, I came back from a business trip to see you."
"I'm back from a business trip. It's good to be back. Are you used to the food in Jinling? Did you sleep well? How many days can you stay here when you come back?" Although I have asked these questions on the phone before, it can be seen that
After meeting the Zhang family's mother, she asked again. Instead of feeling nagging, Song Yuanchao felt warm in her heart.
"The food there is pretty good, there is a cafeteria in the workplace, and the food at Grandma Sun's house across the street from my home is pretty good, not to mention the sleep. I fall asleep as soon as I get home and finish my work every day. It's okay. I'm back to Shanghai this time.
Hai has some business to do and will leave on Sunday night. There will be something else at work next Monday."
Song Yuanchao smiled and said to the Zhang family's aunt. The Zhang family's aunt nodded and said yes. The Li family's grandmother on the side also looked at it with a smile on her face, and there was also some envy in the smile, but Song Yuanchao and the Zhang family's aunt
Everyone in the alley knows about the family's relationship, and no one else would envy them.
After not seeing Song Yuanchao for many days, the Zhang family's mother had endless things to talk about, and even asked specifically about Lin Yan and her children.
Song Yuanchao told the Zhang family that Yanzi and the child were both fine. Yanzi was still recovering from confinement and the child was still young. When the child was a little older next year, he would bring his wife and child to Grandma Zeng to see.
Hearing what Song Yuanchao said, the Zhang family's mother laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth. She had sons and grandsons, but her great-grandson was the first. Even though she and Song Yuanchao had no blood relationship, between her and Song Yuanchao,
In my heart, we have long been a family.
After talking for a while, Zhang's mother suddenly remembered, slapped her thigh and complained: "It's true that you didn't say anything in advance when you came back. If you had known, I would have bought some good food in the morning, and now there is no food at home.
There won’t be any good food in the market in the afternoon, what are you going to do?”
"What are you buying? You can eat whatever you have at home. You're not an outsider." Song Yuanchao put his arm around his mother's shoulders affectionately, looked at the pickled vegetables in the vegetable basket and asked with a smile: "Are we going to eat chicken vegetables for lunch today?"
?This is what I like. I haven’t had it in the north for a long time, and I haven’t seen it in Jinling either. Mom, how are you going to cook this trivial dish? I’m here to help.”
"How to cook chicken and chicken vegetables? Make it simple at noon. Boil the hot water in a pot and put some oil in it. Then put the vegetables in and blanch them and then add an egg in. You haven't eaten less before." After laughing and scolding, the Zhang family
Auntie picked up the basket and greeted Li's grandma: "Grandma, Yuan Chao has come home. I have to go back to cook. By the way, did your family buy any vegetables today? Lend me some first?"
"Yes! I bought a strip of hairtail today, and I still have half a piece of soy sauce meat at home. I'll bring it to you later." Grandma Li agreed readily. Song Yuanchao quickly thanked Grandma Li, who smiled and said
Waving his hands, he watched Song Yuanchao help Zhang's mother into the house.
Naturally, someone was cleaning the vegetable baskets outside, and Luo Yang was following behind. Isn't this free labor a waste if it is not used?
After entering the house and putting things away, Song Yuanchao took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and went to work. The Zhang family's mother-in-law couldn't stop her, and even scolded him a few words, saying that he went to the kitchen just after he came back. Song Yuanchao is a man, a man.
We are going to do something big. We can't do it like this in the future. We want to be looked down upon by others.
Song Yuanchao humbly accepted it with a smile, but he would definitely not change it. He was no stranger to cooking. He finished the meal in a short time. Although it was not rich, it had one meat and two vegetables and a soup. As soon as the meal was put on the table, there was
The cheerful singing voice of Zhang Hao came.
"Today, on Monday, I went to buy blinds, and the price of the blinds was one yuan and ten cents. On Tuesday, I went to buy wine, and the price of the wine was two yuan and two cents. On Wednesday, I went to buy parasols, and the price of the parasols was ten thousand.
Three pieces, three triangles….”
Zhang Hao, who was carrying his schoolbag, was singing and running around. He was holding a tree branch he picked from somewhere and made it look like a machete in his hand. As he walked along, he would pick up something he didn't like and slap it on it twice.
Xiao Pingping chased her with sweat all over her head. She couldn't run as fast as Zhang Hao. She called her brother to wait for me while running. Zhang Hao turned around and saw that she had fallen behind, so he could only stop and wait for her, but he couldn't wait for Xiao Pingping.
After getting closer, he couldn't wait to run forward again.
I arrived home in the blink of an eye, ran straight into the door and shouted loudly without even looking: "Grandma! Is the meal ready? I'm hungry..."
As soon as he shouted the words out of his mouth, he suddenly saw Song Yuanchao standing and looking at him with a smile. Zhang Hao was stunned for a moment. He raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, as if he didn't believe what he saw. When he was convinced that it was Song Yuanchao, Zhang Hao suddenly cheered.
He made a sound and ran towards Song Yuanchao.
"Brother Yuanchao, when did you come back? I miss you so much... I miss you every day after you left... I really miss you, I miss you so much. Brother, please come back and bring me some
Is the gift ready?"
