Chapter 10 Housewarming

You Jianguo heard his baby daughter crying outside the door, rushed into the door in three steps and two steps, and held You Aiyi in his arms, Wu Xiaoyan saw this, and put the chopsticks on the table: "You are used to her......!

You Yishu stood at the door, neither advancing nor retreating, because she hated You Wenbin extremely much at that time, so her personality was inevitably a little withdrawn, and she was occasionally lectured by her parents and rude, hearing Wu Xiaoyan's words, You Yishu, who was smart but sensitive, would inevitably put on herself.

After eating this meal, You Yishu never went to You Jianguo to "rub" a meal. And Wu Xiaoyan's "mean" words also made You Yishu always avoid taboos.

Now, You Yishu recalls the original picture and realizes that Wu Xiaoyan was just trying to educate You Aiyi to have table manners, but she was misunderstood by her self-conscious self for so many years. Fortunately, she is no longer the inferiority complex and sensitive little girl she was back then, You Yishu smiled self-deprecatingly - after working hard outside for many years, in the eyes of her colleagues, she has long been an invincible female iron man, and any gossip and gossip will never affect You Yishu in the slightest, but only she knows how tormented her heart is in a person's night.

"Ling Ling, the second aunt is a rough person, sometimes her mouth is clumsy, and the words she says are not of any level, but the second aunt really hopes that you and Binbin can live a good life," Wu Xiaoyan took advantage of the free time to drink water and chatted with You Yishu, "Seeing that the relationship between the two of you is so good, I think your grandfather can rest assured in heaven." ”

You Yishu couldn't help nodding, not being able to come back to attend her grandfather's funeral was a big regret in her life after all, but if she could make her grandfather feel at ease in the heavens, it would be a little comfort to her.

After cleaning all the rooms inside and out, almost everyone was soaked with sweat, sweat mixed with dust, and their faces were smudged, even Yu Wenbin was no exception.

Since You Yishu told You Wenbin the location of the studio, every time he comes to a new house, You Wenbin must go to his small place first. Seeing that everyone was cleaning today, You Wenbin also silently picked up a broom and carefully cleaned the floor of the studio, even the small gap behind the door.

Sitting in front of the courtyard porch, looking at the clean and bright room revealing a classical but not stale feeling, You Yishu suddenly felt comfortable. She turned her head to look at You Wenbin beside her, only to see that his little face was covered with black dust, washed by sweat one by one, like a little flower cat.

"You see Binbin is so happy, his eyes are slit. After Wu Xiaoyan finished smiling, she handed a wrung wet towel to You Wenbin, You Wenbin wiped it on his face, and then gave it to You Yishu next to him, "Sister, wipe it, it's cool." ”

This move made Wu Xiaoyan and You Jianguo open their mouths in an instant, although they had not often been in contact with You Wenbin before, they also knew that this child lived in his own world, even if his grandfather was unwell, it was rare to see him care about his grandfather, so everyone thought that You Wenbin was probably an emotionless patient in his life.

"Thank you Binbin," You Yishu took the towel, didn't even look at the ash marks on it, and wiped it directly on his face and neck. But before, You Yishu would never use anything that You Wenbin had touched.

The changes in the two sisters and brothers were seen by You Jianguo in his eyes, and he was also shocked in his heart, he was completely stunned by You Yishu's changes, how could it be that since You Sidong passed away, the two sisters and brothers seemed to have changed as if they had changed people? This question turned in You Jianguo's heart, but he didn't say it directly, You Jianguo suddenly wanted to see if there were any more new changes in the sister and brother.

You Yishu originally wanted to invite You Jianguo's family to the restaurant for a meal, but at Wu Xiaoyan's insistence, a table of wine and food was set up at home, and the family had a lively meal.

During this period, You Jianguo asked about Wen Ju, and You Yishu refused without hesitation.

Originally, You Yishu's grandmother's family was very patriarchal, and since You Yishu's mother married into You's family, she blindly asked You Yishu's mother to subsidize the family, and even after You Wenbin was diagnosed with autism, she asked You Yishu's mother to take out 20,000 yuan to fund You Yishu's brother-in-law to build a house, but in order to treat You Wenbin's illness, You Yishu's mother categorically refused her mother's request, and since then, You Yishu's grandmother's family has cut off contact with You's family.

Even when You Yishu's parents passed away, the people in You Yishu's grandmother's family just showed up and left in a hurry, so You Yishu didn't plan to contact that side again.

As for Wenju, You Yishu still insisted on having a celebratory meal with the second uncle's family in the new house.

Although in the countryside, every family hopes that the more relatives they have, the better, especially during the Chinese New Year, when the more people in the family, the more lively they are, and they are particularly popular, but for the current You Yishu, it is enough to have a few relatives around him.

Seeing that the weather was getting hot day by day, You Yishu saw the weather forecast and turned over the open space in the yard at home, taking advantage of the slightly lower temperature on a cloudy day, the seeds could still germinate, planted two small green vegetables and water spinach, and planted two rows of waxy corn on the side of the yard.

Because the weather was not suitable for transplanting, the open space that was originally intended to be reserved for planting flowers was planted with cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, and small cabbage with a short growing season, so that you could eat fresh fruits and vegetables without going down the mountain. Although there were a few calluses on his hands, You Yishu didn't feel tired at all, compared to the tiredness when he was in the magic capital, this little physical work was nothing at all.

After moving back to the new house, You Yishu went to the town to return the keys to the neighbor's house, and the old couple was still a little puzzled by You Yishu's decision to stay in Taoyuan Village, after all, the transportation in the village is inconvenient, and the only land that can bring 1,800 incomes must also be eaten by watching the sky, as long as they can get out of that small mountain village, they will definitely be richer than staying in the village.

After listening to the doubts of the neighbors, You Yishu was in a trance for a moment, as if several years had passed since she had eaten Western food and visited brand stores in the magic capital, but she didn't miss it at all.

"Uncle, aunt, do you remember what our Taoyuan Village used to look like?" You Yishu wanted to have a cup of tea and leave, but after hearing their doubts, the gods suddenly wanted to know more about Taoyuan Village.

It turns out that our village is poor, and we often cut firewood from the mountains and sell it at the bottom of the mountain, not to mention how difficult it is to walk down the mountain. I remember when I was a teenager, carrying dozens of pounds of firewood, I tripped over the roots of a tree, rolled for a long time before stopping, and when I got up, I saw that my clothes were torn, and I lost one of my shoes, and I was so scared that I didn't dare to go home, because I was afraid of being scolded!"

Later, after the reform and opening up, a few people in Taoyuan Village boldly ran out to do business, and they really earned some more or less, and they stayed in the middle and returned to the village wearing bell bottoms, which made the young people in the village red for a long time.

Later, more and more people went out to work in the village, and the villagers had money in their hands, so they paid attention to food and clothing, and the patched clothes also withdrew from the stage of history. In the millennium, the government began to implement the village-to-village project, and the originally rugged and difficult mountain roads were also paved with clean and smooth cement, and naturally the original dilemma of "being covered in soil on sunny days and mud on rainy days" was naturally gone.

I have to say that since the founding of the People's Republic of China, life in Taoyuan Village has been getting better and better, especially from not having enough food and clothing to now worry-free about food and clothing, which is really different. However, after all, Taoyuan Village is located in a remote area, and compared with the city, both the living standard and infrastructure are too backward, so so many young people choose to go out.

After listening to the neighbors, You Yishu's heart was heavy, as if a stone was pressing. She has been in the magic capital of the first-tier city for so many years, and the gap between Taoyuan Village and the magic capital is clear at a glance, and the gap in life is too big! This is also one of the reasons why she has not liked to go back to the village for many years.

However, if all the young people in the village are gone, won't the future of the village have no possibility of development? If Taoyuan Village, which has a history of thousands of years, disappears in the process of urbanization like this, won't those who come out of Taoyuan Village have no hometown and no roots of their own?

You Yishu has never thought about these problems, but after listening to the memories of the neighbor's uncle today, these hidden worries gradually surfaced in You Yishu's heart.

With a concern on her mind, You Yishu rode a bicycle back to Taoyuan Village. As soon as I entered the village, I met a group of villagers sitting around the big tree playing cards, the cicadas were empty, and there was occasionally a burst of laughter, which was clearly a quiet appearance.

"I'm really worried, there are obviously so many villagers in the village, how can the huge Taoyuan Village disappear!" You Yishu smiled self-deprecatingly, her heart suddenly brightened, and she rode an electric car up the mountain.

In the new home halfway up the mountain, You Wenbin is still sitting in the shade of the tree, waiting for You Yishu to come home!

A few days ago, You Yishu made a small wooden bench with reference to the carpentry diagram left by her grandfather, which looked a little rough, but she didn't expect to be treated as a baby by You Wenbin, and wherever she went, she took it wherever she went, even if she sat in the shade and waited for You Yishu to go home, she had to sit on this bench.

You Yishu thought about it, but decided to put a soft cushion on the bench surface, saving You Wenbin from sitting for a long time and his buttocks hurt. When sewing the cushion, You Wenbin stood beside You Yishu, for fear of breaking his seat, with such a supervisor by his side, You Yishu sewed extra carefully with one stitch at a time.

However, when she saw You Wenbin holding the bench with a satisfied appearance, You Yishu still had a sense of accomplishment, and won the recognition of her younger brother for the first time as a bench, which shows that her talent is still quite good, which also strengthens You Yishu's determination to pass on her grandfather's old skills.

But at the moment, You Yishu can't fully devote herself to carpentry, because the house still lacks a set of sofas. In order to choose a sofa that matches the style of the room, You Yishu visited many furniture markets, and even looked at many online stores, but You Yishu always felt that something was missing. Occasionally, there is a set that is favored, but the price is ridiculously high, so there is still a large piece of empty in the living room, and it always feels empty when you enter the door.
