"No matter what you do, grandpa will support you no matter what you do." The old man clenched his hands into fists and raised them forward as a cheering gesture.
Xu Qingzhi ate his second mugwort cake and said, "Grandpa, when the resort becomes crowded, many people will fish with you. I'll hold a fishing competition for you."
"How about taking money from others?" Grandpa asked.
Xu Qingzhi: "There is no charge for the competition."
Grandpa: “Can the fish be taken away?”
Xu Qingzhi didn't expect to be so careful and said casually: "If you want to take it away, just take it."
"That's not possible. I think other people contract fish ponds, and you have to pay for taking the fish away. Otherwise, it's just a few hundred yuan and a few hours. When it gets started here, grandpa will be here to help you guard it every day. The price
It’s more cost-effective, and it’s not like cheating others.”
Xu Qingzhi chuckled: "Okay."
I have never thought about making money from this, as long as grandpa is happy.
The idea of a resort is to have your own small courtyard, where you can gather with friends. All visitors must make a reservation in advance, so there will no longer be the interruption of sudden strangers, creating a more comfortable and pure land to live in.
She likes this kind of atmosphere very much.
I was just worried that my parents would not be able to accept it, but now this worry no longer exists.
A raindrop fell from the sky and landed lightly on Xu Qingzhi's nose.
"Is it raining?" She raised her head to feel it. She didn't see any raindrops for a long time, and when she started to doubt whether it was really raining, another raindrop fell on her mouth, and she confirmed: "Grandpa, it's raining."
The old man cleaned up his things and said, "If it rains, there will be no fishing. Go back."
Achievements, two crucian carp.
Xu Qingzhi drove a tricycle.
Grandpa sat on the small bench at the back and held the handle in front of him.
"Sit tight, grandpa." Xu Qingzhi squeezed the handle of the car and started the three-wheeler.
As the rain gradually intensified, the tricycle "dududu" drove towards the familiar courtyard.
Within a few minutes, the entire sky became drizzle, and white mist formed on the mountains in the distance. The entire world seemed to be covered with a hazy veil.
"Qingzhi, it's raining heavily right now, please sit down for a while before leaving."
As soon as the old man entered the house, he put down the things in his hands, went in and took out a thermos kettle and a clean cup, and poured a cup of hot water.
"My dear grandson, come and have a drink of something hot. Don't catch a cold."
Xu Qingzhi waved his hand: "Grandpa, please leave me alone. You go and wipe yourself and change into clothes."
Grandpa put down the cup and went to the house to change clothes.
She picked up the cup of hot water on the table and took a sip. The water she poured out of the thermos water bottle was the water that her grandfather had boiled during the day. The water was in an old thermos water bottle, plugged with a cork, so it was
The water also smells like wood.
When I was a kid, I often drank hot water with this taste.
When I grew up, it was inconvenient to take hot baths in the boarding school where I went. Every student had this kind of hot water bottle to take hot water back to the dormitory to wash.
I don't like drinking it, it has a weird woody smell.
After two more sips, I put it down.
She sat under the verandah, the rain couldn't get through her.
The sound of rain falling on the leaves is different from the sound of falling on the eaves. The dripping and ticking are intertwined with each other, but it is like a well-composed sleep tune.
Under the jet black tile eaves, rain flows down in strings. The upper half is water, and the lower half is water droplets.
One tile after another, there is an intermittent curtain of water in front of you.
In the year when the ice disaster occurred in my memory, there were huge ice picks under the eaves. Grandma said that if they fell and hit their heads, they would make bloody holes, so they had to be knocked off with a stick.
Grandma knocked twice, and the stick was snatched away by her playful spirit. She knocked down the entire ice pick on the verandah.
Her grandfather came out of the house and her memories came back.
"Qingzhi, sit inside the house and don't get wet from the rain."
Xu Qingzhi obediently moved the bamboo chair into the house and sat at the door.
It will get dark.
With a "click" sound, grandpa pulled the light cord next to him and turned on the light bulb in the room. The yellow light was quite bright.
She used to think that the light was dim and it was difficult to do her homework. Why couldn't it be like other homes in the county, where white woven lamps would be nice and the atmosphere would be classy.
The low self-esteem I had when I was young was really unreasonable. I felt low self-esteem because my family didn’t have white woven lamps; I felt low self-esteem because there were no tiles in the house and the house was dilapidated; I felt low self-esteem because other people’s fathers were teachers and my own father was a farmer.
Now that I think about it, it's a bit ridiculous and a bit sad.
"Grandpa, I plan to change the place where I live later and build a separate courtyard for you, with a connecting door in the middle. I'm on the left, the current house is in the middle, and you're on the right, okay?"
Xu Qingzhi took out his mobile phone and showed his grandpa the sketch he had drawn during today's communication with the designer.
"It's fine for me to live here and not cause you any trouble." Grandpa stared at the photos on his phone without moving his eyes and asked, "Doesn't it cost a lot to build a house?"
I'm not really asking how much it will cost, but I think it takes a lot of money to build a good house.
Xu Huyou Qingzhi: "It's not much. I have a boss who invested in me to build a resort and built two more houses. The engineering team can give me a discount."
"Really?" Grandpa asked.
Xu Qingzhi nodded seriously, "Of course it is true. You will live next to me then, and it will be convenient for us to eat together."
Grandpa looked at the old house with a look of reluctance: "Then is this place going to be demolished and built into something else?"
"If we don't demolish it, we'll keep it here."
The old man's eyes contained expectation: "When will this house be built?"
"We'll wait until the design drawings of the resort are finalized and then we'll see where to move first. It's going to be built this year anyway. We'll use more environmentally friendly materials and we'll be able to move in next year." Xu Qingzhi said, and then guided: "Grandpa,
You see, when the water heater is installed for you, you just need to turn on the faucet and you will have hot water. Also install a floor heating. When it is cold in winter, if you turn it on, the whole house will be warm. The toilet is in the room, so you don’t have to worry about it in the middle of the night.
Went out to use the toilet..."
Every word fell into the old man's heart.
"It just costs a lot of money..." Grandpa frowned, still feeling distressed, "I don't have a few years to live in. It would be a waste to buy a new house to live in. I am dead inside and not clean."
Hearing this, Xu Qingzhi's face turned serious and he said seriously: "Bah, bah, bah, what's wrong with death? Grandpa, I'm going to be angry if you say that."
Grandpa was like a child who had done something wrong, his head slightly lowered.
Xu Qingzhi: "Then I have made so much money selling vegetables now, can I build a new house for grandpa to live in and pay homage to him?"
The old man still felt it was a waste, but seeing how serious his granddaughter was, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"Okay, okay, grandpa lives here."
Xu Qingzhi nodded with satisfaction.
It’s not that I don’t want my grandpa to continue living here, I’m just really worried that in my previous life, my grandpa fell because the moss in the yard was too slippery and no one knew what would happen if he fell like this.
The elderly live closer, so they can know in time what happens.
The rain outside the house became lighter and gradually stopped.
Only the rainwater collected on the eaves was still dripping.
