Early in the morning, Wu Jianye heard the sound of someone talking in the yard. The voice was very loud and there were many people. It was impossible to continue sleeping. Wu Jianye had no choice but to get up and walk to the yard to see that his relatives had arrived.
"You two have become fat!"
"The second fat man is back!"
...
Various questions came one after another. Wu Jianye responded with a smile, then walked to the water tank, took two spoons of water, washed himself, and then started chatting with everyone.
Before Wu Jianye was admitted to Yanjing Film Academy, Wu Jianye was the only one in the village who worked in a state-owned factory in the county. Later, he was the only one who was admitted to university. Wu Jianye's status in the Wu family can be imagined.
But Wu Jianye also knew that their family was not so popular from the beginning. For example, when his father passed away, in addition to some help from his grandparents, Wu Dahai's family, his uncle's family, and the rest of the relatives
, Not to mention helping, they almost occupied their family’s land. But later, because of Uncle Qian’s help, Wu Jianye’s family was able to stand up again.
"Second Fatty, what good things have you brought back this time?" A young man who was about the same age as Wu Jianye, after saying that, he didn't care what Wu Jianye's answer was, he entered the house and started to look through Wu Jianye's bag.
"Wu Jianfeng, what are you doing? There is nothing of yours there!" Wu Jianye said coldly.
Wu Jianfeng is the child of his third uncle's family. He is one year younger than Wu Jianye. He spends all day doing nothing in the village and does not farm. He is a well-known second-rate son in the village.
"Second Fatty, you're wrong. I heard that you brought things to Zhou Tao's boys, why didn't you give me a share?" Wu Jianfeng muttered.
"No, no, don't touch my things!" Wu Jianye glanced at him. In the past, Wu Jianye was taciturn and unwilling to have more contact with them, but now Wu Jianye will no longer tolerate their problems.
"Hey, Fatty Er, you've lost your temper. You've looked down on others since you went to college, haven't you?" Wu Jianfeng responded tit-for-tat. He used to bully Wu Jianye, but now that Wu Jianye reprimanded him like this, he was naturally dissatisfied, but in the end
Didn't even enter the house.
"What are the two brothers arguing about? The fat man is back today. Let's go to our house for dinner at noon!" Wu Jianye's uncle said in the middle of the yard.
Then he gave Wu Jianfeng a vague look. Wu Jianfeng was not afraid of Wu Jianye, but he was afraid of his father. Remembering what they had discussed before, he stopped talking.
"Uncle, I have to go to my grandma and grandpa's place to eat at noon. I already agreed last night!" Wu Jianye refused.
Although Wu Lijiang's actions were secretive, how could Wu Jianye not see it? This time he called him over for lunch, so there was no need to think that it must be a matter of borrowing money. Ever since he went to work in the factory, they had been coming to borrow money every three days.
Qian and Wu Jianye have long been familiar with their routines.
"Go to your grandma and grandpa's house for dinner, and then go there in the evening. Erpang, you are also a member of our Wu family. Go to my house first at noon today, and have a drink with your uncles." Wu Lijiang said.
"That's not okay. Uncle, you know that when I went to work in the factory, it was my grandma and grandpa who gave me the money. I can't be ungrateful. Then I can't let the whole village poke my spine!" Wu Jianye refused, also
A subtle reminder to Wu Lijiang and others that when you used the money for yourself, you all hid, but now you want to borrow money, there is no way.
Wu Lijiang didn't take it seriously, "Isn't my family poor at that time? No one could do anything about it. Now that you are a college student, Erpang, our Wu family has talents!"
Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Uncle, I really can't go at noon. How about I wait until I finish eating at my grandma and grandpa's house at noon and then go to your place?"
Even if he was dissatisfied with these relatives in his heart, as long as Zhao Cuilian stayed in the village for a day, Wu Jianye would not be able to really cut off contact with these relatives, and he still had to look good on face.
"That's okay, we'll wait for you at home!" Wu Lijiang said.
As long as Wu Jianye is willing to come, that's fine. It doesn't matter whether he eats or not.
At noon, Wu Jianye and Zhao Cuilian went to grandma and grandpa's house. The old couple lived alone. They were not far from Wu Jianye's house, just separated by an alley.
"Grandma, grandpa! I'm coming!" Wu Jianye shouted before he even entered the hospital.
"Is the second fat man here?" Grandma and grandpa came out of the house and looked excited when they saw Wu Jianye.
"It's me!" Wu Jianye walked over with a smile and greeted the two old men. In 'Wu Jianye's' memory, the two old men had always taken good care of him and often secretly gave him delicious food when he was a child.
of.
As for Wu Jianye’s grandparents, they died long before Wu Jianye could remember.
Wu Jianye also has two uncles and three aunts. The two uncles have gone out to live alone, while the fourth aunt and the younger aunt are married to other cities. The aunt is not in the village, but in a foreign country.
Zhao Cuilian is responsible for the daily life of the elderly.
"Grandma, I want to eat the potato chips you made!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.
"Okay, grandma will cook it for you now! This kid came over at noon without saying a word in advance and asked your grandpa to buy you something delicious!" Grandma said angrily.
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "I just like to eat the potato chips made by grandma, and I don't want anything else!"
"Are you still used to it in school?" Grandpa asked wearing old-fashioned glasses. Wu Jianye remembered that his grandfather's family seemed to be the landlord in the village before. Grandpa was also one of the few literate old people in the village, but later he became
What's that...
"I'm quite used to it!" Then grandma cooked, and Wu Jianye told his grandpa about things at school.
After lunch, Wu Jianye took out 50 yuan and said, "Grandma, take this money and buy whatever you want to eat. I may not come back during the Chinese New Year!"
"You kid, you go to school outside and have a lot of money to spend. We don't have much to spend money on. You can keep this money for yourself!" Grandma did not accept Wu Jianye's money.
"Grandma, just take it. I have a stipend at school, so I don't need to spend money!" Wu Jianye finally put the money into his grandma's hand.
"Yes, this is Er Fatty's wish, just take it!" Zhao Cuilian said beside her.
"Okay, I'll save this money for the fat man to get a wife later!" Grandma said with a smile.
Okay, another one who helps me find a wife...
After chatting with the two old people for a while, Zhao Cuilian and her son returned to their home.
"That money will have to be taken away by your two uncles!" Zhao Cuilian said with some distress.
"As long as grandma is happy!" Wu Jianye said nonchalantly.
"By the way, go to your uncle's house later and don't drink. They are probably asking you to borrow money. Don't borrow it all or not. No matter what, they are named Wu!" Zhao Cuilian warned.
"I understand, don't worry!" Wu Jianye nodded.
"I'm back here, I'm busy!" Zhao Cuilian muttered.
...
When Wu Jianye arrived at uncle Wu Lijiang's house, uncle Wu Lijiang and uncle Wu Lihu were both there. Wu Jianye saw that he was trying to make him bleed...
