Zhang Shuanzhu was still a little worried when the villagers gathered around Chu Tiantai and his wife to talk.
After all, these honest villagers can't speak. What if one of them can't speak and offends the Yun family?
However, Zhang Shuanzhu later realized that he was overthinking it, because Chu Tiantai and his wife enjoyed this most simple enthusiasm, always with sincere smiles on their faces, and even their little grandson cried and shouted
I'm here, I want to come down and play with the puppy behind my little brother's butt...
"Brother Shuanzhu, you don't have to think too much. In fact, my mother often talks about going home. She feels that she can be unrestrained here." Chu Yang saw the scruples in Zhang Shuanzhu's heart and said with a smile, then turned around and shouted to Sun Bin
Said: "Binzi, you and Xiaosan, hurry up and buy some tables and chairs in the town, let the old and young men have fun here at noon today!"
"Yes!" Sun Bin, who had just put down his hand, now consciously became the head butler of the Yun family, simply agreed loudly. Just as he was about to greet Boss Yu and the others to go out, Zhang Shuanzhu stood up from the horse and patted him.
Chest said with a reluctant expression: "Brother, what you said is wrong. If we are short of tables, chairs, plates and dishes at home, why would we go out to buy them? Borrow them! Do you understand? We are short of these things.
You have to go to the neighbors to borrow something! This represents the prosperity of the population! Don't worry about this, I will arrange it... Dayong and Xiaoyong, you guys follow me out to borrow something!"
"Great!" Seven or eight younger villagers immediately agreed, turned around and ran out like flying.
…
Maybe I should have suggested letting my parents go home to live a long time ago, only then would they feel relaxed.
Surrounding the table filled with all kinds of snacks, looking at Chu Tiantai who was playing guessing games loudly with an old man, and Yun Ruoxi who was smiling and talking with a few middle-aged and elderly women, Chu Yang felt that this kind of simple folk life was the best.
It is the most suitable for parents, because besides being simple, it is simple and there is no need to wear a hypocritical mask on your face.
After having another glass of Wuliangye with Dayong, Chu Yang said to Zhang Shuanzhu with a flushed face: "Brother Shuanzhu, I have something to ask you."
Zhang Shuanzhu, who was a little drunk at this time, heard what Chu Yang said, but before he said anything, he slapped his chest again: "Brother, brother, if you talk like this, you are out of sight! We, although we
We are not real brothers, but who told us and Dayong to grow up catching mice and trapping rabbits together with our bare buttocks? Why don’t you ask for anything? Don’t do this with me! Come on, what’s the matter?
Even though there are so many young and old men who can’t do things that my brothers can’t do, aren’t they? Old and young men, do you think what I, Zhang Shuanzhu, said is right? Ah, right!”
"Yes! Xiao Yang, if you have anything to do, just say it. As a fellow villager in my hometown, there is nothing you can't ask for. As long as you can help, just say it!" The villagers who filled more than a dozen small square tables all started talking.
stood up.
"Everyone sit down, everyone sit down. Whether it happens or not, I'm here to thank everyone."
Chu Yang saw that these villagers really didn't treat his family as outsiders, and he was a little moved. He raised his wine glass and waited for everyone to sit down before saying: "Actually, I just wanted to ask for everyone's opinions. When my mother and my father went out,
Isn’t there an eight-acre ration land here? Haha, don’t get me wrong, I have no intention of getting the land back, I’m just thinking about it. Please consider that my parents want to stay at home as they get older.
For the sake of permanent residence, can the village transfer the land of more than an acre to the front of my yard? I want to plant a few trees on this land so that I can enjoy the shade outside when I have nothing to do. Please don’t worry, no matter what
Whoever owns it, I will give it as a subsidy of 10,000 yuan per mu per year..."
Before Chu Yang could finish speaking, Zhang Shuanzhu and the villagers were unwilling: "Xiao Yang, you are too outsider. You don't have to pay for anything. Why don't you just replace the land? I didn't say it. Anyway, there is very rich land in the village. We
The village can decide to grant you ten more acres of land. As long as you don't build a house on it or dig the ground, it won't be considered as occupying farmland."
"Okay, then I'll thank you all here, but whose land I occupy, I should get the money. In the future, when I'm not at home, I have to invite my uncles and aunts to come and accompany my parents.
Let’s talk.” Chu Yang said, raising the wine glass high and saying to everyone: “Come on, I won’t say any kind words anymore, this glass of wine is considered as my toast to everyone!”
As soon as Chu Yang finished speaking, five or six women sitting at the table at the door of the room also stood up with wine glasses in their hands and said in unison: "Thank you everyone for helping us take care of the elderly!"
How many wives does this guy have? There were dozens of people in the courtyard. After being stunned for a moment, they immediately agreed and raised their glasses together and took their chopsticks.
…
Happy times will always pass by without even realizing it.
The grand banquet for Lao Yun's family in Zhangjiacun finally came to an end when the sun went down.
Although the dishes were only small dishes, the cigarettes and wine were good. Even Cuihua drank more than half a catty of Wuliangye and took away a pack of Chinese cigarettes when she left.
When the villagers left, the young men took away all the borrowed tables and chairs. Those quick-witted young wives cleaned the yard again without any explanation, so that Sun Bin and others did not know.
What did you do?
More importantly, after all the villagers left, Yun Ruoxi discovered that in a few cardboard boxes at the door of the north house, she found some home-raised pullets, vegetables, eggs and other agricultural products.
What was left behind secretly carries the simplest feelings of the common people.
Even though Chu Yang drinks a lot, he was obviously a little too drunk today. He could barely stand up only with Qin Chao's help. He waved his hand to Sun Bin with drunken eyes: "Binzi, you, come here!"
"Brother Yang!" As Chu Yang's absolute confidant, Sun Bin did not dare to drink as much as Chu Yang did today when Gu Mingchuang and Hu Li were not here for something, and he remained absolutely sober from beginning to end.
"You, take people back to the pharmaceutical factory first. When you have nothing to do, come back often. I won't say some things. Anyway, you understand."
Sun Bin nodded like a fool: "Brother Yang, don't worry, I know what to do without you having to tell me these words."
Chu Yang lowered his head and waved his hands: "Okay, okay, you go back first, go back, I will stay here tonight."
Sun Bin agreed and left the Yun family with Wang Xiaosan and others.
"Xiao Yang, please make some arrangements. Your father drank too much and went to rest in the east room a long time ago. I have to go and take a look." Because Yun Ruoxi was happy today, she also drank a glass of white wine, and her charm was still the same as before.
Her face was flushed: "You don't have to worry about the child. Your father will have to go to work at the city bureau tomorrow morning."
Chu Tiantai accompanied Yun Ruoxi back to Zhangjiacun this time. Of course, he couldn't stay with her at home to take care of the children all day, so he transferred the relationship to the Jinan City Public Security Bureau.
As for what role Lao Chu will play in the Public Security Bureau, that is not important. What is important is that he will have a job in southern Hebei and will no longer have the inferiority complex he had in Beijing.
Before the relationship was transferred, in order to reduce unnecessary trouble, only a few leaders in the city knew the identity of Chu Tiantai. Even Director Liang Xin did not necessarily remember what Chu Tiantai looked like (when Lin Jingxian was kidnapped by Jiang Gongjin)
, Liang Xin once met him once in the Lingxiucheng villa late at night, but she didn't know his name), which is why Lao Chu didn't go out when the deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee came home just now.
Think about it, these leaders who came to the countryside today are all here for the golden face of the third prince Chu (the wife of the third prince Chu has returned to her hometown honorably, this is the news that Deputy Mayor Li got from Liang Xin). If they see
Chu Tiantai is his father, so why shouldn't he be treated as his ancestor?
This is not what Chu Tiantai wants to see, he just wants to live like an ordinary person.
Sometimes, being able to live like ordinary people is also a luxury wish.
After hearing Yun Ruoxi's instructions, Chu Yang waved his hands drunkenly, then walked to the tap water sink in the yard. Regardless of Qin Chao and others' whispered complaints, he stuck his head under the faucet and drank cold water to his heart's content.
Got up.
The cold water made Chu Yang, who was dizzy, somewhat sober up. After opening his mouth and taking a few more sips, he took the towel handed over by Qin Chao, wiped it on his head randomly, and shook it.
I wandered to the door of the yard, sat down on the threshold, looked at the mature cornfield in front of me, and smoked.
The Yun family's yard is at the southernmost end of Zhangjia Village. There is a cornfield about ten meters ahead of the gate. When it is quiet at night, sitting here you can clearly hear the sound of the flowing water of the small river not far away.
There were four or five various cars parked at the entrance of the courtyard. These were the cars of Qin Chao and others. None of them asked to go back.
After smoking half a cigarette, Chu Yang asked Qin Chao who was accompanying him: "What did Chai Murong do in Qingdao?"
Today is the day when Chu Yang goes home. Qin Chao, Ye Chuqing, Shang Lige, Zhou Shuhan, and Xie Yaotong all followed him to Zhangjiacun early in the morning, but Chai Murong sat down at noon yesterday
The plane went to Qingdao, but he didn't ask in detail at that time.
Qin Chao bent his legs and squatted next to Chu Yang and replied: "Her cousin Chai Yueran was admitted to Qingdao Ocean University this year. Hasn't school already started? She, the elder sister, went over to take a look, express her concern, and make an inspection.
Check out the group branch over there. Don’t worry, with Shangguan Ling and Xu Nanyan by her side, nothing will happen to her. Chu Yang, don’t be dissatisfied with her just because she didn’t come here.
,The key is that she didn’t know you would come home last night.”
Chu Yang smiled: "How could I be dissatisfied with her because of this? I'm just worried that she is pregnant with a child and running around like this is not good for her health."
Before Qin Chao could say anything, Chu Yang added: "After I stay at home with my parents for a few days, I may have to go to Japan. If you guys are okay, don't forget to go home often. Although Manyu hasn't woken up yet,
, but I think she definitely wants someone to accompany her."
"Chu Yang, I have an idea that I want to discuss with you." Before Qin Chao could speak, Zhou Shuhan's voice sounded from behind.
