The expert community was originally planned to be completed in October 1994, but because it took more time to decorate and arrange furniture than an ordinary residence, it was not completed until the end of the year.
Tao Guangming and the others kept muttering: Why are you doing it so meticulously? They clearly know that it is charity and there is no money to be made at all, but they are still throwing money and effort into it.
Liang Anqing brought people to check it out. He was very satisfied with the hot water shower, gas pipes and furniture, so he was very happy when he signed the appropriation.
In early 1995, on a dark and stormy night, a bus brought about a hundred people and a bunch of luggage, put them in the community and left.
Since then, this courtyard has become the most mysterious place of "Wenjun Industry".
The guard at the door never talks to anyone outside.
The people living there, except for the people in the security room, are all old men and old ladies.
These old men and women go out for walks, buy groceries, and rarely talk to anyone.
"Wenjun Industrial" suddenly had a group of workers in their thirties and forties, scattered in various factories and schools.
Tao Guangming felt that Li Wenjun was meddling in other people's business. He had too much money and no place to spend it, so he took over someone who others were eager to get rid of.
Li Wenjun smiled and said: "They are quite pitiful. Many of them have been locked up in the Gobi and caves for their whole lives and have no chance to reunite with their families. If I don't accept them, they really don't know where to go."
Tao Guangming pursed his lips: Of course he knew this was a good thing. But Li Wenjun doing good deeds without expecting any reward always made him feel weird.

When Gu Zhanyan came back today, his expression was a little strange.
Li Wenjun asked: "What's wrong?"
Gu Zhanyan hesitated and said, "I have never told you about my parents because their jobs are so special that I can't talk about them. But today, I seem to have seen them in the mysterious courtyard next to Phase 6. I suspect...
...Did I see it wrong?”
Although both of them are much older, they only glanced at each other from a distance.
But after all, they were her parents. Their gait and appearance were so familiar to her that she would not be mistaken even in her dreams.
Li Wenjun felt sorry for the tears in her eyes. He leaned over to hold her in his arms and patted her back gently: "You read that right. It's them. Because they haven't found you yet, I don't want to tell you so early.
It makes you anxious to wait.”
Gu Zhanyan was stunned for a moment and murmured: "Why did they leave me alone for twenty years? Now they are so close to me, but they are still so cruel that they don't contact me."
Li Wenjun said: "They may not have figured out how to meet you yet."
There was not so much hesitation in the previous life because Gu Zhanyan had been dead for more than ten years when they retired.
They could not make amends, they could only blame all their anger and responsibility on Li Wenjun, and then die with regret and pain.
Now that Gu Zhanyan was right across the street, they were too timid to get closer.
Gu Zhanyan leaned in Li Wenjun's arms and burst into tears.
Li Wenjun sighed softly: "Give them more time. Don't be too sad."
This morning, when I arrived at Li Wenjun's office with Tiao Tiao after school, I was out of breath. I saw that the two of them had run all the way here.
Li Wenjun asked: "What's wrong?"
Say early: "Dad, we met a bad guy at the school gate today."
Li Wenjun became nervous when he heard this. Although there were security guards along the way, it was hard to prevent the kind of desperadoes who would kidnap the two siblings and ask for money from him.
He asked: "Who is it? Have you told the security uncle?"
Zaozao: "They were two very strange grandparents. They were waiting for my sister and me at the school gate. Then we asked them who they were. They didn't say anything and just kept following us. We told the security guard, who said it was in the mysterious courtyard.
of."
Li Wenjun breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh...it's okay, they are not bad people, they are your grandparents."
My eyes widened early: "Wow, when did I have grandparents?"
Diandian rolled her eyes: "Idiot, there must be one. Otherwise, where did mom come from?"
Zaozao said: "But, but..."
Diandian ignored him, only frowned and asked Li Wenjun: "Does mom know?"
Li Wenjun replied: "I know."
Diandian asked again: "Then we have to pretend not to know?"
Li Wenjun: "No, you can call them grandpa and grandma if you want."
Dot pursed his lips, his expression was exactly the same as Gu Zhanyan's, which made Li Wenjun want to laugh.
Diandian said: "It's so awkward, forget it, I'll just pretend I don't know."
Zaozao asked eagerly: "What about me?"
Diandian sighed: "You are so stupid, I pretended not to know them, maybe you can know them?"
Zaozao: "Ah, then I also have to pretend that I don't know you?"
Diandian rolled her eyes and walked out: "You don't know them in the first place. Pretend to be more like them, otherwise I will have to bother pretending to be intimate. It will be too embarrassing."
"Wait for me, sister."
I hurriedly chased him early to hold Diandian’s hand.
Diandian shook him off and rolled her eyes: "Why are you clinging to me?! How old are you?"
Early on, I had persevered to hold Diandian’s hand again.
Diandian sighed: "I really can't stand you." Then he raised his arms and put his arms around Zaozao's neck.
Li Wenjun looked helplessly at Diandian Kuku's leaving figure and smiled bitterly: Who does Diandian look like with such a sharp-tongued mouth and a soft heart?
Let's talk about Gu Zhanyan, she is like a little girl sometimes, she never gives up in fights or whatever.
It really made him, an old father, deeply suspect that there was something wrong with his education.
But he had actually raised her as a princess and a lady since she was a child.
Where did I go astray...
Li Wenjun was so absorbed in thinking about this matter that he didn't hear Yang Shouzhuo and Tang Zhaonian talking to him in the office the next day.
Yang Shouzhuo and Tang Zhaonian saw Li Wenjun distracted for the first time.
Usually the old god Li Wenjun is there, but he seems not to be listening. In fact, he is just thinking and has not missed anything.
I called him four or five times today, but he just stared at the tea can on the table in a daze without any reaction.
Yang Shouzhuo, Tang Zhaonian and Tao Guangming exchanged surprised looks, with a bit of schadenfreude.
"Hey, this is Alzheimer's disease."
"No, one drop of sperm and ten drops of blood, he sang happily every night and exhausted himself to death."
"It's rare that he gets confused. If you have any requests for him, ask him quickly. After passing this village, there is no such store."
"Guangming, come."
Yang Shouzhuo and Tang Zhaonian gestured wildly at Tao Guangming with their eyes.
Tao Guangming plucked up the courage and said tremblingly: "I submitted my retirement application, please approve it. I just want to watch Old Man Sun making jade articles every day, and I don't want to do any other work."
Now I am being treated like a bull and a horse by Li Wenjun every day, which is really tiring.
If he could retire, he would just have to make two trips to the China-Myanmar border a year and bring back two carts of stones, and he would be able to make money comfortably and be able to spend time with his children and wife. It feels good to think about it.
