Chapter 176: Distant Relatives

……

"You're also from Wangjiawan?"

"Yes!" Wang Zheng nodded. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Third child, this is the golden pillar of Wang Fulai's family at the back of the village!"

"Golden Pillar?"

The old man was confused for a while, but he was instantly pleasantly surprised: "I remember, you are the golden pillar of the old Wang family in the back village who used to steal our watermelons when I was a child?"

"Hmm!" Wang Zheng smiled and nodded.

"Oh, I said, how do you think you always feel so familiar?" the old man said after looking Wang Zheng up and down.

As Wang Zheng's identity became clear, the surrounding villagers also remembered the past and began to discuss. However, Wang Zheng's change and what happened just now made them instinctively establish a barrier between the two sides.

But the words 'out of breath', 'long ability', and the like still drilled into Wang Zheng's ears in bursts.

The ancients said, 'Wealth does not return to the hometown, just like brocade clothes at night', although it is not out of Wang Zheng's original intention, but now he can be regarded as an alternative kind of brocade returning to his hometown. Although Wang Zheng himself does not intend to do so!

"Second grandfather, third grandfather, it's not early, I still have something to do when I go back. I'll come back to see you after the New Year!"

"Sit a little longer, right?"

"No, I'll see you later!"

"Then I'll send you!"

"You can rest all the time, you don't need to send it!"

After saying goodbye, Wang Zheng took Wang Qian out of the house.

After returning to the old house, I discussed with Wang Lei about the renovation and expansion of Wangjiawan, as well as the recruitment of workers, and then drove home in the evening.

The next day came the last day of the lunar calendar 2014, commonly known as the Chinese New Year's Eve.

On this day, Wang Jianguo and Wang Zheng were instructed by Huo Lanxiang early in the morning to prepare various materials needed for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. After a sumptuous lunch, the two returned to Wangjiawan with firecrackers and tributes to visit the graves of their grandfather and grandmother. After eating dumplings in the evening, he began to adjust the LCD TV that Wang Zheng had just bought not long ago to the central set, waiting for the annual Spring Festival Gala to start.

As a must-see repertoire every year, although the quality of the Spring Festival Gala has been criticized, it has now almost become a symbol of the New Year, a necessary process. If you don't look at it, you always feel like something is missing.

Fortunately, Feng Gangpao made a good movie, which also brought a touch of novelty to this year's Spring Festival Gala, and generally speaking, Wang Zheng felt okay. Especially Shen/Teng's "Help or Not", which made their whole family laugh.

At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, my mother took her to stack gold ingots and tributes, and began to worship the gods and goddesses, with the Lord of the Stove and Guanyin Bodhisattva being the focus.

Wang Zheng didn't believe in gods and Buddhas, but his mother's piety made him obediently cooperate and kowtow to the immortals, and then according to his mother's command, he went to the community to release the whip.

At this time in previous years, Wang Zheng must take all kinds of fireworks and firecrackers that his father bought for him. But as he grew older, like a scattered fallen leaf, he no longer attached himself to the branches, and Wang Zheng was no longer interested in this.

After worshipping the gods and Buddhas, you have to eat dumplings. And it must be vegetarian dumplings, because the gods and Buddhas do not eat meat, so the dumplings made in the same batch with the gods and Buddhas are also vegetarian fillings. And the New Year's Eve dumplings symbolize good luck in the coming year, in my mother's words, even if you don't want to eat again, you have to eat a few!

Wang Zheng and Wang Jianguo, who have long been accustomed to this custom, each ate a bowl.

At this point, the Chinese New Year's Eve of 2014 is over. After helping my mother pack up her things, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep.

The next day is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and according to custom, you must get up early in the morning to kowtow to the elders. However, the previous generation of the Wang family died early, and Wang Zheng's grandfather had no brothers. Therefore, Wang Zheng also avoided the trouble of getting up early in winter.

However, compared to previous years, more people have come to visit the house this year. Obviously, this is because of Wang Jianguo's promotion and Wang Zheng's career progress.

Of course, being in the public gate will inevitably usher in the send-off, and others will come to visit Wang Jianguo. Wang Jianguo naturally has people he needs to visit. However, compared with previous years, Wang Zheng also went with him this time.

Although with the growth of Wang Zheng's wealth and the improvement of his status, ordinary county officials are no longer a big man for him. But there is a saying that 'the county official is not as good as the current management', in the Liuba this acre of land, for the smooth development of Taoyuan Villa, it is still necessary to consolidate the intimate relationship with the rulers.

This situation lasted until the third year of junior high school, and Wang Zheng transferred two cars from the villa, and then added his Land Rover to carry Wang Jianguo and Huo Lanxiang all the way to Hanzhong Airport.

"Mom, what time is my second uncle's plane?"

"He said that it was a plane at 9 o'clock in the morning, flying from Shanghai/Hai to Xi/An, and then from Xi/An, and then transferring to Hanzhong!

"Impossible! My second uncle probably didn't check the flight, the plane from Xi/An to Hanzhong is all at night, there is no morning flight at all, and there is only one trip a day! If he really arrived in Xi'an in the morning, it is estimated that he will not be able to pass by train or car at all!"

Seeing her son's sworn appearance, Huo Lanxiang hurriedly took out her mobile phone, "I'll call and ask again!"

But the tone coming from the phone is power off.

"I guess they'll still be on the plane, let's fight again!" Wang Jianguo said.

"I'll try again!"

Huo Lanxiang didn't give up and hit another one, but the result was still shutdown.

Seeing this, Wang Zheng shook his head with a smile and did not persuade his mother, but let the two cars that followed him turn around and drove all the way back to the highway.

"Son, where are we going?"

"Go to Xianyang Airport, now it's the New Year, it's hard to get a taxi! Instead of waiting here, it's better to go directly to pick up people. Anyway, it's just over an hour's drive. ”

"Then you drive slowly!"

"Got it!"

When Wang Zheng picked up the suburbs of Xianyang City, Huo Lanxiang's mobile phone rang. Wang Zheng didn't need to listen to it to know that it must be the reason for the plane.

After a few minutes of brief communication on the phone, Huo Lanxiang hung up the phone, "Son, you are really right." Your second uncle's flight was booked wrong. ”

"They've already dismounted?"

"Well, I've already told them we're going to pick them up!"

Wang Zheng nodded, looked at the closer and closer target on the mobile phone navigation, galloped all the way, and soon saw the huge Xianyang International Airport.

After parking the car, Wang Zheng took his parents to the waiting room. The second uncle's family who got off the plane early are waiting here.

"Big sister, here!"

As soon as Wang Zheng and the others walked into the hall, a middle-aged man in a black coat stood up excitedly and waved to them from afar.

"Second brother!"

Seeing her relatives again after a few years, the expression on Huo Lanxiang's face instantly became excited, and she hurriedly trotted forward, and the two sisters and brothers hugged each other with tears in the corners of their eyes.

Wang Zheng can understand his mother's mood at the moment, if he remembers correctly, his mother and second uncle haven't seen each other for five or six years.

The relatives of both sides stood next to them, looking at them with a smile of relief and pouring out their feelings for their sisters and brothers. It took a long time for him to calm down a little.

"Brother-in-law, you're here too!"

"Well, I'll come with your sister to pick you up!" the two shook hands.

"This is Xiao Zheng, right?"

"Second uncle!"

"Hey!" Huo Weijun agreed with a smile, "In a blink of an eye, Xiao Zheng has grown so big!"

"Second uncle, that's as exaggerated as you said, I was already in college when I last saw you, okay?" Wang Zheng said with a smile.

"It wasn't as high as it is now...... Hey, that's right!Wen Jing, call someone quickly!" Huo Weijun commanded as he pulled the young girl behind him.

"Auntie, aunt, cousin!" said the girl, who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old with a ponytail.

Wang Jianguo and Wang Zheng just smiled and nodded, but Huo Lanxiang was obviously happier than them.

"I didn't expect Wen Jing to grow so big. I remember the last time I went to you, she was just like that!" Huo Lanxiang gestured to her **** position.

"At that time, she had just entered middle school, and now she is a sophomore in high school!"

Huo Lanxiang smiled and touched her niece's head, then looked behind them, and after finding that there was no one else, she couldn't help but wonder: "Didn't Meilan and Wen Qiang come with them this time?"

"Didn't Wen Qiang's daughter-in-law give birth to a child? The two of them can't leave at home! I'll bring Wen Jing over this time!"

"Wen Qiang has children?"

"Yes, born in November last year, boy!" Speaking of this, Huo Weijun's face was filled with the joy of being a grandfather.

"Oh, that's good! Wen Qiang is still two months younger than us Wang Zheng, and he already has children. It's like our Wang Zheng, who doesn't even have a girlfriend until now!" Huo Lanxiang's words revealed a strong envy.

"Mom, Mom, let's help the second uncle take the luggage to the car first! This is the waiting hall, it's not convenient to chat, can you talk when you get in the car?"

Wang Zheng saw that the war was about to burn on him again, so he decisively interrupted his mother's conversation.

"Yes, yes, let's get in the car first! It's all my fault, I just cared about chatting, and I forgot where I was!" Huo Lanxiang echoed and went to get the luggage.

"No need, sister, I'll just take the luggage myself!

"Second uncle, let's come! Just chat with my mother!" Wang Zheng's physical strength is several times better than that of ordinary people, so the luggage that is not very heavy in his hand is not much heavier than straw.

Huo Weijun and Wang Jianguo, who were originally men, wanted to help at the beginning, but seeing Wang Zheng's relaxed appearance, they didn't speak.

After walking out of the airport gate and coming to the parking lot, he saw a Land Rover and two Mercedes-Benz parked there, and Huo Weijun's face was irrepressibly surprised.

Although he hasn't seen him for many years, he still knows what his sister's family background is. It's not poverty, but it's definitely not wealth.

"Eldest sister, these three cars are yours?"

"This is Xiao Zheng's own purchase, his villa ushered in the delivery, and sometimes you need to use these good cars. I'll go out with your brother-in-law and take his Chang'an Ford!"

"The Lodge?"

This word surprised Huo Weijun even more. (To be continued.) )
