It was the second day of the Lunar New Year, and Zhou Fangyuan and they were going to his grandfather's house for the New Year.

Grandpa's house is located in the east of the city, more than 10 kilometers away from the city. Because the roads are dense and the traffic conditions are good, it only takes less than 20 minutes to drive from Zhou Fangyuan's house to his grandfather's house in Thirty Miles.

Grandpa's family opened a commissary, as the only commissary in the village, the business was not bad, Zhou Fangyuan remembered that when he came to his grandfather's house when he was a child, his favorite thing to do was to plunge into the cabinet to find food. And grandpa also spoiled him, he could eat all kinds of candy and snacks as much as he wanted, grandpa not only didn't care, but even took the initiative to give Zhou Fangyuan all kinds of things that children liked.

Zhou's mother persuaded her father not to do this, and said that this would spoil Zhou Fangyuan, but instead of listening, his grandfather intensified, as long as Zhou Fangyuan wanted it, he would try his best to get it. It can be said that for Zhou Fangyuan's grandson, it is better than his own grandson.

"Happy New Year!"

As soon as the car drove into the village, Sanlipu Village became a sensation, and countless people ran out to watch the eldest daughter of the Zhou family. Zhou Fangyuan quickly jumped out of the car after the car stopped, trotted all the way into the yard of his grandfather's house, and then shouted New Year's greetings.

"Okay, Yangyang, come, come here, let grandpa see you. ”

Grandpa was wearing a cotton jacket and sitting on the kang to warm up, and when he saw Zhou Fangyuan coming in, the old man couldn't open his eyes with a smile.

Grandma also looked at Zhou Fangyuan with a smile next to her, this old couple can be regarded as loving the house and Wu. They like their eldest daughter the most, so they like Zhou Fangyuan's eldest grandson the most.

"I heard your mother say that you did well in the exam this time, how is it?

Grandpa asked with a smile.

The grandmother sitting next to him slapped him lightly, "Don't talk nonsense, Yangyang is a high school student, where do you still pay attention to double hundred." ”

"How am I talking nonsense...... Hey, what I'm talking to you, an old woman, you don't understand, I listen to Yangyang, Yangyang, you say, how did you do in this exam?"

Grandpa and grandma are already the daily routine of this family, but their bickering is not really bickering, but an emotional exchange. The old couple has been good for a lifetime, and they have been talking for a lifetime, but the relationship is getting deeper and stronger, which is much deeper than the feelings of those young couples.

Not long after, Zhou's father and Zhou's mother also walked in, carrying gifts in their hands.

Grandpa was a little unhappy when he saw the gifts, "I don't lack anything, what are you buying these things for?"

The old man slammed his pipe hard and said unhappily.

"Dad, this is a part of our heart, you have it is your business, and you can't help but let us express our heart. ”

Zhou's mother smiled and walked to the old father's side, hugged the old father's neck, and said with a smile.

Although she is almost forty years old, Zhou's mother still behaves like a little girl, and she is very used to being coquettish to her grandfather.

"You......"

Of course, Grandpa was not really angry, he shook his head, indicating that he was completely speechless for his eldest daughter.

The family sat together and chatted for a while, Zhou Fangyuan's second aunt and second aunt came, they lived in the next village, the second aunt did the cake business, which is also his ancestral craft, the dough made was soft and strong, the noodles were stacked layer by layer, it could be called a mille-feuille cake, but this cake almost did not put oil and raw flour into it, all the layering was done by kneading again and again.

Of course, there are many small skills in this, but they can't be said casually, in short, this craft passed down from the ancestors of the second aunt's family still doesn't see any value. But more than ten years later, he has opened three branches in Beitong City, and sells tens of thousands of white cakes every day, making a dime a single cake, and he can earn a whole thousand yuan a day.

Zhou Fangyuan's second aunt is a housewife, their family also has no land, and the two of them all make a living by making white cakes, the second aunt is the key core, and the second aunt is responsible for doing it. They gave birth to a daughter named Tian Rui, who is only five years old this year, a whole round younger than Zhou Fangyuan.

When his family's restaurant opened before, Tian Rui didn't go, because she was still at her grandmother's house, that is, her second aunt's mother-in-law. The second aunt's hometown is in the next door of Yunshi Province, although it is adjacent to Beishan, but after all, it is a province. From Kitatong, it takes several hours by car. At that time, Tian Rui was taken to play at home by her uncle, so she didn't come when the fast food restaurant opened.

Today is the first time since Zhou Fangyuan's rebirth that he has seen the only sister of his grandfather's family. The little guy is very introverted and afraid of life, almost doesn't talk much, and even grandpa talks to her as if he is squeezing toothpaste, asking and answering.

When the meal was approaching, Zhou's mother and second aunt went to help grandma make dumplings, Zhou's father and second aunt accompanied grandpa to talk, Zhou Fangyuan had nothing to do, so he took his little sister Tian Rui to the front of the fence, helping to watch the stall while accompanying the little guy to play games. The game is very simple rope turning, this kind of game is spread all over the country, the content is to use a rope knot into a rope sleeve, one person with a finger to weave a pattern, another person with a finger to take over, turn into another pattern, alternate with each other, until one can no longer weave down. The best part of this game is to show off your ingenuity by flipping new tricks.

Tian Rui had a lot of fun, and Zhou Fangyuan also accompanied her while helping her grandfather sell a lot of things. Moreover, the people who buy things are all villagers in this village, and they all know Zhou Fangyuan, no matter who comes to buy things, they have to say hello, and by the way, ask about something they are interested in. There were also people who gave Zhou Fangyuan a cigarette, and Zhou Fangyuan took advantage of his mother's inattention to quietly smoke half of it.

Anyway, my grandfather's side was already full of cigarettes, and my mother couldn't smell the smoke on her side.

Lunch is very rich, as I said earlier, the material conditions of grandpa's family are actually better than grandpa's, and grandpa is a person who likes to enjoy, maybe he had too many hard days when he was young, but when the lunch was served, Zhou Fangyuan sat down on the table, looked at the table casually, and his saliva came down on the spot.

All kinds of chicken, duck, fish, beef, mutton and pork, as long as it is common meat in ordinary people's homes, there are all here. And the amount of each dish is particularly large, grandma's home decoration dishes are on plates, and grandma's home decoration dishes are directly used in pots, just like the most common grilled meat strips for the New Year of the Beitong people, and Zhou Fangyuan's grandmother's grilled meat strips, one palm wide, half a centimeter thick. As for grandma's side, two palms are wide and one finger thick, and almost all indicators have been directly doubled.

The meatballs are also the size of a fist, and there is also beef and mutton, in short, everything is big and the amount is sufficient.

Zhou Fangyuan was too addicted, and in the end, he was so hungry that he wanted to vomit just by eating meat, and his burps were all kinds of meat flavors. He was afraid that his stomach would not be able to digest it, and after resting for a while, seeing that the adults were still drinking and chatting, he quietly left his grandfather's house alone and began to eat in a circle along the outer circle of Thirty Lipu Village.

I met a lot of childhood friends on the way, but unfortunately, now that everyone has grown up, the friendship when I was a child has faded a lot. Zhou Fangyuan greeted the other party, and the other party's performance was either lukewarm or overly enthusiastic. Both of these manifestations are due to the changes in his family. His family is now rich and has become a payment, and some people don't want to be called a "rich man", so they deliberately alienate him. And if someone wants to slap him, he is particularly enthusiastic.

This made Zhou Fangyuan feel bored, walked around a few times, felt that his stomach was better, and turned back.

By the time he returned, the things on the table had been removed.

The three women in the family began to wash the dishes, Tian Rui was too young, and she had already been coaxed to sleep by her second aunt. The second aunt was sitting on the kang with his grandfather chatting, and Zhou Fangyuan turned around and didn't see his father.

I asked my mother, and finally my mother said that my father went to the toilet.

At this time, the village used public thatched houses, and Zhou Fangyuan vaguely remembered what direction it was, so he walked towards the thatched houses, and met his father who turned back halfway through.

"Where did you just go?"

As soon as they met, Zhou's father asked.

"The eater has gone. ”

Zhou Fangyuan replied, then he looked at his father and grinned, "What's the matter, did you drink it today?"

"Well, it's not bad, your grandfather took out all the good wine he used to treasure today, and he has stored it for more than ten years, and it tastes very good. ”

Dad Zhou nodded, with an aftertaste expression on his face.

"Just drink it, Dad, it's time to get down to business. ”

Zhou Fangyuan said with a smile, and then his expression suddenly straightened.

Zhou's father was a little confused by his son, he was stunned, hesitated for a moment before looking at Zhou Fangyuan with some uncertainty, "What's the matter, what's the matter?"

"You'll find out if you come with me over here. ”

Zhou Fangyuan dragged his father all the way to the east of the village.

"Dad, you look ahead, what do you see. ”

As he spoke, Zhou Fangyuan pointed to a large flat wasteland in front of him.

Dad Zhou was still at a loss, "This, this is the big wild land, what's new here?"

"It's not just a wild land, Dad, don't you think this place is very flat?" Zhou Fangyuan shook his head and said with a smile, "Think about it, isn't it a pity that such a large area and such a flat land has been deserted?"

Speaking of this, Dad Zhou reacted immediately.

"You mean I want to buy this land?"

"That's right, that's it!"

Zhou Fangyuan slapped his hands, his father's performance had not completely disappointed him.

"But, didn't we buy land just to get the land money?"

Zhou's father said that he couldn't understand.

"It was before, it is now, and what I said before is not a lie. The amount of food used in our fast food restaurant is getting bigger and bigger, and having a planting base of its own is only good and no harm. And Dad, I also have an idea, let's get this planting base, we can't simply grow vegetables, we want to plant, we have to plant pure green, pollution-free and pollution-free safe vegetables, healthy vegetables and assured vegetables!"

Zhou Fangyuan looked at his father, his eyes flashing with confidence.
