Chapter 501: Serve as an ancestor (Chapter 1 is here) Ask for a monthly pass
A few days flew by.
I just returned to Xiazhuang some time ago, and on Saturday morning, Xia Zekai was ready to go home again.
This trip was to go back to deliver the car to his father and to see how his grandfather was recovering.
Xia Zekai planned to go back by himself, and then stay at home for one night. On weekend mornings, he would take Brother Liu Quan's car from Xiazhuang to Jicheng, and then transfer back to Qicheng.
The process is a bit tortuous, but it is endless fun. Anyway, I am not in a hurry now, I just want to re-experience the feeling of studying many years ago.
"Zekai, take all your things and walk in front." Luo Xiyun helped him pack his things in the car.
They are all nutritional supplements and tonics that I bring back to my grandfather and parents.
After loading the things, they filled up the trunk of the GL8. Xia Zekai also said to his wife: "You bought too much. You won't be able to finish all the food when you take it back."
"You don't have to worry about it. Hurry up and lead the way." Luo Xiyun urged him again.
Xia Zekai heard something strange. He looked at his wife and asked, "What do you mean, you want to go back with me too?"
"Otherwise, my parents miss their granddaughter. Is it okay if I don't take them back?" Luo Xiyun said.
Xia Zekai blinked and looked at his wife again: "Didn't you say you wouldn't go back last night?"
"Yes, I said last night that I wouldn't go back, and I didn't go back yesterday either." Luo Xiyun said this, and then she added: "But I want to go back today, do you have any objections?"
"I can't offend you, so I'll leave first." Xia Zekai complained in his heart, but he was also a little moved.
Luo Xiyun put on the wearable removable safety seats for Yatou and Tongtong, sisters, and fixed them in the back seat of the Volvo.
The space in this car is small, but the two of them sit there just right, they don't feel crowded, and they can still have a lot of fun.
After Xia Zekai got on the highway, he glanced back in the rearview mirror a few times. Not long after, he noticed that his wife's passionate red Volvo was following her, driving very fast.
Xia Zekai turned on the light to signal and slowed down.
"This stinky bitch is too willful. I'll beat her up when I get back." Xia Zekai swore secretly.
After walking for three and a half hours, we returned to Xiazhuang smoothly. Two cars drove into the village and immediately attracted the attention of the people in Xiazhuang.
With a length of more than 5 meters, one can immediately tell how big this guy is and how beautiful it looks.
The passionate red Volvo driven by Luo Xiyun is indeed not about beauty, but the key point is that it is attractive.
"Hey, isn't this Zekai and his wife back? Why did the couple drive two cars?" A neighbor saw it and complained.
The neighbor next to her said to her: "You are really too careless. If people have money, they can buy more cars and drive them however they want. Can you take care of that?"
After Xia Zekai said hello to these enthusiastic villagers, there were cigarettes brought back from behind. He took out two boxes and divided them between them before entering the house.
"Mom, I'm back." Xia Zekai shouted, and before Zhou Yinghong came out, he went back to the trunk to get something.
Luo Xiyun also helped him carry a few light boxes.
Seeing the couple walking home with their hands full of packaging bags of various colors, the surrounding villagers were extremely envious.
Zhou Yinghong heard her son say that he would be back on Saturday, so she kept waiting at home. When she saw her daughter-in-law and two granddaughters coming back, she hurriedly welcomed them out.
"Xiyun, hurry up and take them both inside to cool down. I opened the watermelon soaked in cold water. You guys eat two pieces first to quench your thirst." Zhou Yinghong said.
Old man Xia Shande was still sitting on his official hat chair, babbling in Beijing accent.
When he saw Yatou and Tongtong, he stopped listening to the tape recorder. He threw the tape recorder aside and called the two sisters over.
Zhou Yinghong and Luo Xiyun both went out to help get things.
Zhou Yinghong also asked him: "Zekai, why did you drive two cars?"
"Mom, where is my dad?" he asked.
Zhou Yinghong said: "He went to work. When he knew you were coming back today, he went to report the news and call your name and came back."
Love is just a day's work to earn a living.
Xia Zekai didn't say anything. He patted the GL8 that hadn't been listed yet and said to his mother: "Mom, look at how this car looks like. It's tough. I bought it for my dad. It will be convenient for you to do whatever you need at home.
.”
"Why did you buy such a big car for your dad? I mean just buy him a van." Zhou Yinghong couldn't help but muttered.
She also asked her son: "Zekai, this car looks very nice, isn't it cheap?"
"It's not bad. It's a little more expensive than the van you mentioned, but it's not much more expensive. The most important thing is that this car is more durable than a van." Xia Zekai said this.
Zhou Yinghong was stunned for a moment. She didn't know anything about cars, she only knew about vans.
"It's hot outside, go home quickly." Zhou Yinghong was not interested in the car and asked her son and daughter-in-law to go home and cool down.
After Xia Weicheng came back from town, he saw the unregistered GL8 parked in front of his house, and he seemed to have figured it out.
A feeling of joy arose from the bottom of my heart. I thought to myself that Zekai was really good. He had been thinking about buying me a car. It didn’t take long for me to buy the car.
"Dad, what do you think of this car?" Xia Zekai heard the movement of the motorcycle and came out of the house. He happened to see his father standing at the door looking at the car.
Xia Weicheng said: "This car is so beautiful. It's even prettier than the blue one you drove before. Zekai, isn't this cheap?"
"It's okay, Dad, just take some time to put up the sign." Xia Zekai said.
When Xia Weicheng heard that it made sense, he looked at the car and asked his son: "Zekai, let me go up and touch it a few times to try out how this car feels."
"Dad, have you finished your driver's license test?" Xia Zekai asked deliberately.
After receiving a positive reply, Xia Zekai said: "Dad, this car is different from the pickup truck you learned to drive in the driving school. While I'm at home, you can go up and familiarize yourself with it. If you don't understand anything, just ask me.
.”
This made sense. Xia Weicheng hurriedly opened the cab door and sat in directly.
He raised his buttocks and squatted for a few times. The seats of this car were so comfortable. Xia Weicheng thought that this car might not be cheap.
Seeing that his wife Zhou Yinghong was not around, Xia Weicheng whispered: "Son, tell me the truth, how much is this car worth?"
"Dad, just give it a try and see if it works. Money or not, what does it have to do with you? You should eat and spend money. Why are you worrying so much!" Xia Zekai said to him.
When Xia Weicheng's son said this, his father's card came to his mind, and he really stopped asking about the price.
He sat in the driver's seat and asked his son to sit in the passenger seat. After sitting in, Xia Weicheng looked at the many buttons on the steering wheel, looked at the buttons in the central control area, and the gear knob was no longer within the range he knew, and he was suddenly at a loss.
"What...how do you do this?" Xia Weicheng looked down and asked his son.
Xia Zekai didn't dare to be careless about this matter. He taught him carefully one button at a time, which one was for air conditioning, cooling and heating, which one was for the horn, which one was for the gear lever, wipers, turn signals, where the brakes were, etc.
This lesson lasted only a few hours. Fortunately, the air conditioner was turned on in the car, otherwise the high temperature would have suffocated people inside.
Zhou Yinghong waited around, but neither her son nor her wife came home. She got tired of waiting, so she came out to take a look, and then she found that her son was teaching her wife how to drive the car.
She knew it was a serious matter, so she didn't disturb the two of them, and went home again to greet her daughter-in-law and granddaughter to eat first.
"Dad, what happened this time? Do you remember everything?" Xia Zekai asked his father.
Xia Weicheng nodded quickly, with an open-minded attitude, and said, "No problem, I'll give it a try."
After understanding the buttons and gears, the rest is not that troublesome. You don't even need to step on the clutch, just put the gear in and step on the accelerator.
"boom"
There was a dull roar of the engine, followed by a strong pushing sensation, and the car jumped forward, which scared Xia Weicheng so much that his hands trembled. He subconsciously stepped on the brakes and the car stopped. He quickly asked his son: "What's the matter?"
So powerful."
"Dad, you think the 3.0-displacement engine is a joke, please slow down." Xia Zekai was so frightened that sweat broke out on his forehead.
Fortunately, there are few people on the roads in the countryside and the roads are wide, so nothing happened just now, otherwise it would have been a joke.
After Xia Weicheng got familiar with it, he took his son around from the lower road to the top of the barrage. At this time, he felt that this car was very easy to drive, and it was incomparable with the cars he had driven before.
He drove on the top of the barrage for more than half an hour. The excitement was not over yet, but his son hadn't eaten yet!
Now that he was almost familiar with the car, Xia Weicheng turned around and headed home.
At this time, he also discovered a problem. The car was too big and it was difficult to turn around. His previous habit of turning around was no longer useful, and he had to get familiar with it again.
When he returned home, he turned off the car and parked it on the side of the road. Xia Weicheng was full of emotion and asked, "This car costs more than 200,000 yuan."
Seeing that his son didn't say anything, he said, "Even if you didn't say anything, I would have known about it when the cards were played."
I had to take the invoice to get the license plate, and I definitely couldn't hide it. Xia Zekai chuckled and thought to himself, why did dad become smarter?
"Three hundred and sixty thousand, Dad, don't let my mother know about it again, and don't tell anyone." Xia Zekai warned his father.
When Xia Weicheng heard the price, his hands trembled with fright. It was more than hundreds of thousands of miles more than he expected. This was the amount his father spent on treatment at that time.
"Good guy!" After Xia Weicheng knew the price, he almost treated him like a treasure. He stretched out his hand to touch the car body. He pointed at the dirt on the lower edge of the car body and said, "Son, you see there is dirt here. I'll get a basin of water."
It washes."
Xia Zekai stretched out his hand to support his face: "Dad, don't bother me. This is just a car. Don't treat it like you are serving your ancestors."
Obviously, his father didn't listen and went home directly with a bucket of water and a cloth to clean the car.
"dad!"
"You go home first. I'll go back after I finish the instructions."
Xia Zekai felt that he should really listen to his mother and just buy his father a van.
