Chapter 54 The sense of accomplishment of filial piety
Xiong Wei's family and Zhang Sen's family had expressions of happiness and ostentation when they saw the three stacks of money placed on the bedside of the kang. Several villagers who came to chat with each other in the evening showed envy and jealousy. There were not a few children who went out to work.
It's good to ask for money from home, but there are very few people who get back 30,000 yuan during the New Year to honor their parents.
We are all parents, and we all hope that our children will succeed and their daughters will succeed. Every achievement of their children will be infinitely magnified in the eyes of their parents. Seeing the elderly people from both families entertaining everyone with their collection of fine cigarettes, with smiles and proud expressions on their faces, Cheng Xiaoyu
Once again, I deeply felt the special mentality of my parents. They did not expect their children to be well-known and educated among the princes. It was enough for them to be able to live in peace and contentment, occasionally honor their parents, and have a harmonious and beautiful family.
After returning home, Cheng Xiaoyu saw his parents, sister and brother-in-law also looking at the 30,000 yuan he had taken out. Cheng Xiaoyu smiled. From their eyes, he could clearly read the same meaning as Xiong Wei and Zhang Sen's parents. They looked forward to it again.
I was a little uneasy, feeling that my son was being filial to me, but I was also afraid that I would hurt my son by being passionate, so I hesitated, smoked, and kept silent.
"Mom, please keep this money and renovate the warehouse, chicken racks, and rice building when spring comes. When the weather gets better, I will pay for it, and we can knock down the house and build it again."
Let’s build a bigger and better house. Let’s also build an indoor bathroom and heat the entire floor.” Cheng Xiaoyu picked up the money and stuffed it into his mother’s arms. He looked at the boxes of tobacco, drinks, beer, and fruits on the floor.
Then he smiled and said: "These things are divided between the two families. Brother-in-law, I will help you carry them in a while."
They are all in the same village, only a few dozen meters apart. There is not much difference between the two families.
After Cheng Xiaoyu finished speaking, he found that except for Yang Dan, who was holding chocolates and playing with PSP, the other four people in the room were all stunned and still unresponsive. Apparently, they had not yet woken up from the shock that started this morning.
Cheng Xiaoyu sat down and recounted his experience of making money during this period in a serious manner. The matter involving the magical left hand was naturally concealed, and his monthly income of more than 100,000 yuan was reduced several times to avoid scaring his family.
, after telling the whole story, the family finally understood why Cheng Xiaoyu was so lavish when he came back this time.
Wang Xiumei took out another 20,000 yuan from the kang cabinet, 10,000 of which Cheng Xiaoyu asked Xiong Wei to bring back in the summer, and 10,000 that the family had saved in the past two years. After putting them together, she said to Cheng Cheng: "Tomorrow you
We and Guoping went to the street to deposit money, and our family also got a passbook. And Daewoo, you have to think about the future if it is easy for you to make money, and you can't be lavish. Who knows what will happen in the future..."
A long-winded speech that belongs only to mothers. In the past, Cheng Xiaoyu's first reaction after hearing it was to turn around and leave. He felt irritated and upset and didn't like hearing it. But now he doesn't. That kind of deep concern can only be expressed by parents.
will be issued.
After finishing speaking, everyone was immersed in the New Year's goods placed on the ground. Money is a good thing and should not be eaten or drunk. The things placed on the ground are destined to become the pride of the two families as the New Year approaches. The village is only so big.
, if something happens to someone's family, it will spread from the east end of the village to the west end of the village with a little effort. Whose family's life is good, whose life is not good, whose children are filial, and whose children are not filial.
…
In the countryside, there are no secrets.
Yang Guoping was carrying drinks, beer and fruits with a smile on his face. When he met the villagers, he deliberately stopped to chat. He also deliberately showed off the high-end wine and high-end cigarettes among the common people, and said something like "My brother-in-law bought this" in a show off.
Visitors also started to come to the house in the name of visiting Cheng Xiaoyu. It was normal for the Zhang family to visit the Li family during the winter leisure time. Wang Xiumei was a talkative and laughing person, and from time to time there would be games (playing mahjong) at home, and the guests
Naturally, given the opportunity to show off their son's filial piety, the couple was willing to take out cigarettes costing more than a dollar each for everyone to smoke and cans for everyone to drink from. This was not generosity, but the joy in their hearts that they didn't know how to express.
Son's filial piety is the most awesome thing to show off in the countryside. Countryside people are very particular about the old principles. If a son is not filial, he will be laughed at in villages ten miles away.
In the evening, Cheng Laoshi's home cooked a lot of delicious food. Cheng Xiaoyu called all the uncles and uncles who lived in the same village over and had a meal together. Wuliangye Maotai was put on the table. Cheng Laoshi, a famous old man from nearby villages and towns,
My back was hardened and my confidence was strong. I was chatting around the wine table more and more. My face was flushed and excited after drinking. Several aunts and ladies also came. After eating early, I was dragged by Wang Xiumei to the West Room to eat fruit and drinks.
smokes.
Cheng Xiaoyu has never seen that kind of satisfaction from his parents. Whether it is showing off or showing off, as long as they are happy, Cheng Xiaoyu will have a sense of accomplishment as a child to repay the kindness he has raised. This feeling is wonderful and beautiful.
No amount of money can buy it.
In the evening, Cheng Xiaoyu drank two glasses of wine and went down to the table. He brought the steamed beef and pork to the grandfather on the mountain. During the meal, Cheng Laoshi went to order it himself. Just because the old man gave face to his grandson yesterday does not mean he will give face to his son today.
, did not come, Old Monster Cheng, Old Weird Cheng, because of his name, his personality and temperament, or he would be a ghost.
When Cheng Xiaoyu opened the door to his grandfather's room, he smelled a pungent smell of Chinese medicine. The old man was sitting on a small bench looking at the small medicine jar on the stove, stirring the medicine jar with a steel spoon from time to time.
"Grandpa, eat."
"Well, watch the ignition. Don't make it too big or too small. The standard is that the medicinal soup does not boil over a large area."
"knew."
A few minutes later, the old man came out of the house after eating. He came over and took a look. He put on his thread gloves, held the two ears of the medicine jar with a rag, lifted it off the stove, and poured the medicinal soup into the pot that had been placed on the stove.
The empty bowl on the table was dark with finely divided unknown dregs. It smelled disgusting and looked nauseating. Cheng Xiaoyu, who had the experience in the morning, would not think this thing was junk.
"What are you looking at? Not only is it for you, my old body also needs nourishment. Do I want to be called an immortal behind my back?"
Only then did Cheng Xiaoyu know why there were two empty bowls on the stove. The old man's bowl was obviously much less. Without waiting for Cheng Xiaoyu to open his mouth, he said rudely: "Now it has spread throughout the village. You have become rich and have made a lot of money."
"Master, let's go to the street tomorrow to get medicine according to the list I prescribed. Some of them are expensive supplements. Whether you feel sorry for your money or your body, you decide for yourself."
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't even hesitate. He grabbed the prescription that the old man took out from his pocket when he put down the medicine jar and said with a smile: "People are the first thing. Only when you have a good body can you do the revolution better."
"That brat will become poor in one day." The old man laughed and scolded, but did not forget to remind: "Relying on medicine alone is not reliable after all. It seems that your brat has made some mistakes outside and gained experience. If you can do what I say, If you persevere, you will be strong and strong."
"Grandpa, why didn't you teach me before?" Seeing his grandfather in a good mood, Cheng Xiaoyu asked the question he had wanted to ask for a long time.
"How many people who work in the fields are so weak as you, do you still need me to teach you?" The old man drank half a bowl of medicine, obviously referring to a question he didn't want to answer, and turned around. Entering the house: "After drinking, I will go home. I want to go to bed."
