I first pushed a few bags of lighter items back to my yard on a wheelbarrow, and before I could carefully pack them, it was already dark. You Yishu took a few large linoleum sheets to cover the things, locked the door, and went back to the neighbor's house.

As soon as he opened the door of the hall, You Yishu saw You Wenbin reading a book with a book, and there were words in his mouth: "Three points for seven points to do ......"

You Yishu quietly walked to You Wenbin's side, only to find that he was looking at the woodworking diagram. The pages are a little yellowed, but the handwriting is very clear, and even the details of the wood processing are very delicate.

"Hey, hey, give, sister. You Wenbin grinned embarrassedly, handed the book in his hand to You Yishu, and glanced up at You Yishu rarely, but then lowered his head. Then, as if he remembered something, he immediately got up and went to the room where he was sleeping, took out the cloth bag pressed under the pillow, and handed it to You Yishu.

You Yishu had seen this cloth bag in her grandfather's treasure chest, and she was even reprimanded by her grandfather for wanting to open this cloth bag secretly. Holding this cloth bag in her hand today, You Yishu suddenly felt like she had gone back in time.

She put the cloth bag on the table in front of her, opened it layer by layer, and inside was a bag of books, and on the top was a letter, the envelope was also sealed with fire paint, and on the front was a small block written with a brush: "Granddaughter You Yishuqi".

The moment she opened the letter, You Yishu's eyes turned red, and even she didn't know why her tears became lower and lower after returning to her hometown. It was a handwritten letter left by his grandfather to You Yishu, a letter of only one page, but He Yishu read it for a long time.

In the letter, You Sidong's words reveal his thoughts about You Yishu, especially after You Yishu's parents died in a car accident, You Yishu stayed in the magic capital all the year round, rarely went home, and was obviously just a child, but he often sent money home, and took on the responsibility of supporting his family prematurely......

At the end, You Sidong said that the carpenter's craftsmanship passed down from his ancestors could not be passed on to him, which was a big regret in his life, so he left the carpentry illustrations passed down from his ancestors to You Yishu, and when he met someone who was destined, he hoped to continue to carry forward this old craft.

There was also a bank card in the envelope, which was full of living expenses sent home by You Yishu after joining the work, You Sidong didn't spend a penny, and saved all of them, just so that one day he could use it for his beloved granddaughter.

You Yishu put down the letter, carefully picked up a book and opened it, and the yellowed pages clearly marked the production methods of various mortise and tenon joints and other objects.

"Grandpa said to my sister. You Wenbin saw that You Yishu didn't speak for a long time, held back for a long time, and finally held back a sentence.

As soon as he finished speaking, You Yishu hugged You Wenbin.

You Wenbin's two arms were like stiff wood, and he didn't know where to put them, obviously he was not comfortable being held, but he felt his sister's sadness, and after thinking about it for a long time, he still didn't push You Yishu away.

After a while, You Yishu finally cleaned up her mood, she forced a few smiles, spread her right hand and pressed it on a few books, as if swearing and talking to herself: "Grandpa, don't worry, the carpenter skills of our You family can't be lost, and I, You Yishu, will not let the ancestral old craftsmanship and old culture disappear from this world." ”

She carefully wrapped all the books and put them in the coded suitcase she had brought with her.

The sister and brother had dinner and were relatively silent all night, and You Yishu, who originally felt that her life had no direction after returning to the village, finally settled down. Although the path of a carpenter's apprenticeship may be difficult at first, You Yishu has watched his grandfather do it for so many years, which is much easier than starting from scratch.

Early the next morning, You Yishu called You Jianguo, some wooden cabinets and other large items really can't be lifted by themselves, and You Jianguo has long said that he must call him when he moves.

When You Jianguo went up the mountain, You Yishu had used a wheelbarrow to move everything that could be moved back to his yard, and the remaining large items were still neatly placed in place, most of them were some wardrobes and wardrobes that You Sidong had made when he was alive.

"Ling Ling, where are you going to put these furniture?" You Jianguo remembered that his niece was originally a professional interior designer, even if it was these unfashionable furniture, maybe they could put flowers in the house. Thinking about it like this, You Jianguo still has some expectations.

"These pieces of furniture are very good, this wardrobe is placed at the foot of the bed in my room, and this big cabinet is placed in the ......" You Yishu finished in an orderly manner one by one, and casually pasted the post-it notes with the location on the cabinet door.

The uncle and nephew carried and dragged it, and finally put a wooden cabinet on the wheelbarrow. You Yishu didn't expect an ordinary wooden box to be so heavy, not to mention that there are several larger wooden cabinets and wardrobes that have not yet been moved.

"We can't finish moving these, wait a minute, I'll find two strong laborers to help," After transporting the first wooden box, You Jianguo saw that You Yishu's face was flushed with exhaustion, and he couldn't bear it, so he took out his mobile phone and started calling.

It didn't take long for the voice to come from the door.

"Is anyone home, please?"

This voice is familiar to You Yishu, but she can't remember who it is for a while.

"At home, please come in!" You Jianguo greeted him cheerfully.

"Uncle You, you are also here, I came to the village today, and I happened to pass by, so I came to see how the house was built here. ”

Hearing this, You Yishu remembered that it was Fu Yan'an, a small village official in the village, who had not seen You Wenbin since he helped find You Wenbin last time.

When You Yishu walked out quickly, the two people in the courtyard were already chatting.

"The state has issued a policy to renovate the dilapidated houses in the village, and the houses that meet the requirements can receive a certain amount of state subsidies for the renovation of dilapidated houses. When we made records in the village before, Grandpa You's house had been registered and identified as a dilapidated house, I just remembered that now Sister Ling Ling has no financial resources, if she applies for the renovation of a dilapidated house, she can relieve some of the economic pressure on Sister Ling Ling. After Fu Yan'an finished speaking, he turned around and saw You Yishu standing under a pomegranate tree looking at him.

"No need, thank you for your kindness," You Yishu had a polite smile on her face, "The quota for the renovation of dilapidated houses in each village should be limited, our family has been built, and this quota will be reserved for those in the village who need it more." ”

"Since that's the case, then I won't say more, Sister Ling Ling is worthy of coming back from a big city, and her quality is high. Fu Yan'an raised his eyebrows, this was an inertial action of his, but if he did this action after saying this, in the eyes of others, it was inexplicably provocative.

"In terms of high quality, it's better than yours," You Yishu remembered Fu Yan'an's words in the electric car shop, and couldn't help but want to scold him: "Not everyone can help our poor mountain village like you, riding an electric car back and forth every day, how hard it is." ”

Fu Yan'an laughed and didn't respond again.

At this time, there was another sound of footsteps at the gate, and the rescuers moved by You Jianguo finally arrived.

A few strong laborers divided the large pieces of furniture piled on the ground to You Yishu's house. Although Fu Yan'an was thin, he was not idle, and he was busy with everyone.

After the move, You Yishu planned to leave a few villagers for a cup of tea, but everyone knew the hectic nature of the move, so they waved their hands again and again, making excuses to go back to their respective homes. Fu Yan'an saw that the big guys were gone, and the furniture was also placed in the corresponding position, so he simply didn't stay longer.

Before leaving, Fu Yan'an told You Yishu again in front of You Jianguo: "Applying for the renovation of dilapidated houses, why don't you think about it? The number of places in the village is limited, and the secretary takes into account the special situation of your family, so he specially asked me to remind you." ”

You Yishu didn't think about it, and said directly: "Thank you very much for the kindness of the village, but I really don't need it." ”

Fu Yan'an touched his nose and couldn't help but be a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, You Jianguo took Fu Yan'an's shoulders and said with relief: "Xiao An, I know that you want to help the poor households in our village, but Ling Ling has also been working outside for many years, and he can still afford to build a house, and our whole family understands your kindness." ”

"Well, in that case, I won't say more, if there is anything you need my help with in the future, you can just ask. Fu Yan'an quickly adjusted his mentality, and walked out of the door with a smile.

However, on the way down the mountain, it was inevitable that there was still a burst of frustration, in their village official group, many colleagues reported that the poor households in the village in order to obtain the quota for the renovation of dilapidated houses, openly and secretly demolished each other, but when they arrived in Taoyuan Village, how could anyone refuse such a good thing?

Sending Fu Yan'an away, You Jianguo looked at the dust on the ground, knowing that cleaning would take a lot of time, so he called to tell Wu Xiaoyan about You Yishu's move, but he didn't expect that a quarter of an hour later, Wu Xiaoyan rode an electric car up the mountain, and when he got off the car, he took out a broom and rag, and said with a little complaint: "Moving is such a big thing, why didn't you say it earlier, I would also come in advance to help you clean up." ”

But after all, Wu Xiaoyan was not idle at all in her hands, she was wiping ashes and sweeping and mopping the floor, she was more energetic than You Yishu, and when she saw the corners that were particularly difficult to clean, she didn't even let You Yishu do it, for fear that she would be tired. You Yishu looked at Wu Xiaoyan with emotion, and suddenly felt that the second aunt was not as mean as she originally imagined.

You Yishu still remembers that when she was twelve years old, her parents took her younger brother, who had just turned two, out to seek medical treatment, and her grandparents took rice to the field to eat at noon in order to grab the harvest.

Grandpa felt sorry for You Yishu, so he asked You Jianguo to take You Yishu to his house for dinner. You Yishu refused to go at first, but she couldn't stand You Jianguo's deadlift, so she followed You Jianguo to the bottom of the mountain.

At that time, You Jianguo had not yet begun to pour landscape pine, his family's income was limited, and the house was a little simple. As soon as You Yishu arrived at the door of the second uncle's house, she heard Wu Xiaoyan cursing in a low voice at home: "Are you a starving ghost? Take it back for me, and wait until you have all the time before eating!"

Immediately afterwards, I heard the second uncle's eldest daughter, You Aiyi, crying at the top of her throat.
