Chapter 51: Returning Home

Even with special treatment, it was a long time to go home.

Xingyi County, the Revolutionary Committee, the CPC Committee, and the CPC Committee received calls from the province and the region, asking them to take part in the reception of overseas Chinese who had returned to China to visit their relatives. The county revolutionary, the head of the committee, and Ren took people to get busy, counting the time to rush to the regional administrative office, and soon two jeeps drove over and stopped, and several people got out of the car. Although the director has only seen Li Ya twice, he still remembers that it is because Li Ya not only helped the county build a small cultivator, but also instructed himself to urge his children to review, and finally both children were admitted to university.

After shaking hands and meeting and introduction, the group walked to the regional administrative office, and the director took the time to ask Li Ya how he became an overseas Chinese, Li Ya whispered: "I was framed and expelled from school, and then smuggled to **, and then went to Canada." Now I have a ** household registration and live in Canada. ”

As the leader of an agricultural county with a population of only a few hundred thousand in the remote mountainous areas of the west, there are zero foreign exchanges, and the director of the county revolutionary committee does not know the country of Canada at all, let alone whether it is in the east or the west. All he was concerned about was the instructions from his superiors and the mess in the county. He said with some regret: "What a good comrade, why can't you tolerate it." ”

After coming to the conference room and sitting down, the regional director conveyed the instructions of the province, asking that overseas Chinese who returned to China to visit their relatives must be received.

The region attaches great importance to Li Ya and the others, and specially asked someone to buy coffee beans.

After having a reception banquet at the guest house, the regional leaders talked to Li Ya, and Li Ya got into the carriage found in the county. Originally, there were jeeps in the area, but Li Ya felt that there were a lot of troubles in the area, so he insisted on taking a carriage.

Shu Yue took the carriage for the first time, very curious, and swayed slowly, enjoying the scenery on both sides of the road. "This is the real return to the basics, back to nature." ”

Li Ya said helplessly: "Only rich people will feel good." We villagers can't eat enough, who has the leisure to walk slowly, it is good to have a car, we can hurry home, and we can also hold firewood. Only when they are rich in the future and tired of riding in a car will they be interested in riding in a carriage. ”

Shu Yue glanced at Li Ya, he was really a guy who didn't understand the amorous feelings. It's not that Li Ya doesn't understand the amorous feelings, just remind Shu Yue a little, don't make jokes at that time. Li Ya is similar to Shu Yue, and he also thinks that riding in a carriage is a kind of leisure, so he refuses to send it by jeep, but at the same time, Li Ya also understands the thoughts of the villagers.

The journey was slow, Li Ya was a little anxious, but Shu Yue was in high spirits, and Li Ya could only answer patiently.

The carriage entered the brigade, and Li Ya guided him to stop at the door of his grandfather's house, and said to Uncle Luo, who was driving the car: "Uncle Luo, that's it, this is my grandfather's house." ”

Li Ya jumped out of the carriage and helped Shu Yue down, Shu Yue stood on the ground, only to find that her legs were a little numb, but fortunately Li Ya helped her, otherwise she would have to sit on the ground. helped Shu Yue to walk away, and after relieving herself, Shu Yue sorted out her dress, Li Ya took down her luggage and invited Uncle Luo to enter the door. Uncle Luo saw Li Ya come back, the family had to talk well, it was inconvenient to disturb, excused, pulled the reins and turned around, Li Ya hurriedly took a Shanghai watch as a gift to him.

Seeing Uncle Luo away, Li Ya took a box of things and walked up with Shu Yue, his grandfather's house was more than ten meters away from the road, although there were people at home, they didn't know that Li Ya and the two were coming.

Li Ya walked into the yard and shouted twice, and when he saw Peaches running out, Li Ya hurriedly shouted: "Call my uncle and uncle to come out and help carry things." ”

Peaches shouted inside, and they all came out. Li Ya put down the box and said busily: "Grandparents and grandmothers, I'm back." ”

"As soon as you left, there was no news, and your mother was always worried, and she didn't write a letter back. "Grandma counted Li Ya.

Li Ya couldn't reply, they didn't know that they had gone abroad, and they thought they were in Beijing. It is a bit unthinkable to write letters abroad at home. had to change the topic and said: "Grandpa, grandma, this is my object, called Shu Yue." ”

After the introduction, the grandmother pulled Shu Yue into the house, and Li Ya and the eldest uncle went to the roadside to move the boxes. On the way, Li Ya whispered to his uncle and uncle about his experience during this time. The uncle said, "It's good that you didn't tell your grandfather about them, or wouldn't you frighten them?" ”

The uncle is full of curiosity about the outside world, and plans to seem to understand Li Ya.

After moving things back, I talked to my grandfather and took out photos to show them. There are beautiful cities and villas abroad, natural scenery and historic sites in China, and Shu Yue took out gifts to distribute them, and then taught the three sisters and brothers of Peaches to use them. A few gifts captured the three of them, and obediently listened to Shu Yue's teaching.

It wasn't until the afternoon that I set off in the car that my uncle borrowed from the brigade. Today, the 26th and 29th of the lunar month are celebrated, and there are only two days.

When the carriage went to the pass, the stockade appeared in front of him, and Li Ya pointed to his house and said, "Look, that is my house." ”

Shu Yue looked in the direction of Li Ya's finger, then looked back at the lake below the village, and said, "I didn't expect there to be such a big lake here." ”

Li Ya said with a smile: "The ancestors settled here because there is this lake here, and there is no shortage of water for farming. ”

Walking through the lake, I met a lot of people along the way, Li Ya said hello all the way, and before he arrived at the door, a child had already run to Li Ya's house to report, and his father and mother got the news and stood outside waiting. Li's mother was very happy when she heard the news that Li Ya had returned, especially when she heard that she had brought a beautiful girl back.

Since getting out of the car, Li's mother hasn't said a word to Li Ya, and she has long forgotten Li Ya aside, and now in her old man's eyes, there is only Shu Yue.

Li Ya complained to his father: "I'm her son, okay." ”

The father smiled: "My son is his own, and he can't run, so of course he has to greet a good girl now." After speaking, he also began to inquire, "Where is this girl from?"

Li Ya replied: "Canada, you don't know if you say it." In a country north of the United States, your son now has a factory in Canada and a plot of land. ”

Dad was a little puzzled when he heard this, and asked, "You went abroad?"

Li Ya hummed and said: "This is also something that can't be helped, anyway, I was framed (by) someone and expelled from school, so I went abroad." ”

"Then are you still going to go now that you're back?" asked Daddy.

Li Ya said: "Go, of course you have to go." There's not only a piece of land, but also a factory, and that's money. ”

Dad said with some concern: "Don't let people know that you are rich, this is a capitalist." ”

Li Ya comforted: "It's okay, Dad, I'm a foreigner now, and I can't fight as a capitalist." Moreover, I also donated 10 million to the country. ”

In the past two years, the production team has been doing well, raising pigs at home, and now he has only a thousand yuan in his hand, and Li Ya actually donated 10 million, which is really unimaginable for him. Is it so easy to make money from foreign countries?

"Your son is also a rich man abroad now, and it is inconvenient to go abroad now, and it will be convenient for you and my mother to go and see it in a few years. Li Ya said, "At the very least, I have to meet Shu Yue's family." ”

Father Li Ya sighed: "It's really inconvenient for you to see you abroad." ”

"It will be good in the future, the country will develop, and the infrastructure will keep up, then it will be very fast. Take a car to the provincial capital, and then take a plane from the provincial capital to Beijing, you can fly from Beijing to Canada, two or three days, very convenient. Li Ya said.

The father and son were talking in the yard, and Shu Yue in the kitchen helped Mama Li cook, and Mama Li was very satisfied when she saw this fairy-like girl skillfully washing vegetables and cooking on the fire, and learning to cook home-cooked food with herself. Shu Yue saw the satisfied smile on Mama Li's face, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart that it was fortunate that she had lived on the farm for a while, otherwise she would have been embarrassed today.

Li Ya went to the second uncle's house and asked them to come over for dinner, and the second aunt was already washing the vegetables at this time, so she heard that Li Ya was back, and planned to call Li Ya's family to come over for dinner as soon as possible.

Grandma was also very happy when she saw Li Ya coming back, and pulled Li Ya to talk for a while before going over with her second aunt.

Li Ya's second aunt and grandmother went over first, and Li Ya went to the back mountain to pick up his grandfather and second uncle, and they were chopping wood in the back mountain.

Walking along the stone road to the top, Li Ya didn't know which way to go, so he had to stop and wait.
