Chapter 283: A Guest at Home
This meal was very enjoyable, although Zhu Yunxue was pampered by her family since she was a child, she was not infected with any vices, and her pure heart was good and would please the elderly.
Yuan Zijie is very happy, his feelings for Zhu Yunxue are not as deep as Zhu Yunxue's feelings for him, but there must be a liking. And although Zhu Yunxue is simple-minded, her mind is not dull, which can be seen from her ability to coax Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu to be happy.
Her three views are very similar to his, and in many cases, the thoughts of the two people coincide strangely. Such a "good match" makes Yuan Zijie believe that with the passage of time, the relationship between him and Zhu Yunxue will get better and better, and they will get along more harmoniously.
The fact that his future wife can be recognized by the Lu family, whom he also values, gives him a sense of joy that he is recognized.
Seeing the lovers who were about to step into the marriage hall leave, the Lu family returned to its former tranquility.
Ever since Grandma Lu met Zhu Yunxue, she became more and more interested in Lu Shan's proposal to let the two of them go to the capital. She discussed it with Grandpa Lu and decided to simply go with Lu Shan, so as not to let Lu Jue send this trip in the future, after all, Lu Jue's work has been very busy recently, and the second elder can't bear to trouble him.
After deciding, Grandma Lu joined Lu Shan's packing team. When she goes to the capital this time, she must live in the Ye family, although she knows that the Ye family is kind, but she can't go empty-handed, she has to prepare some more family specialties before leaving, and bring them to the Ye family.
Lu Shan doesn't have any luggage, she mainly carries goods for Ye Dezheng and Zhang Hui, so that she can save a lot of postage. This time, Lu Shan asked for tens of thousands of yuan of goods, and the amount was so large that Lu Jue was staggered.
Of course, Lu Shan can't take away such a large amount of goods directly, at least not on the surface, she told Lu Jue that she would only take away two packages, and take the rest to the post office to mail to the capital.
This batch of goods is worth tens of thousands of yuan, although it doesn't sound like much, but it is already a big list for a new factory like Lu Jue.
Lu Jue asked Lu Shan not to pay for the goods first, and to pay when the goods were sold, which was equivalent to owing her the full amount on credit. But Lu Shan did not accept this proposal, and she was not short of money, so why should she default on this payment and let Lu Jue fall into a short-term economic crisis?
Only two pockets of goods were left to make a show outside, and Lu Shan put the rest into the space warehouse.
Seven days passed in a flash, and early in the morning, Lu Shan took Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu to the car to Jianan City.
There is a train to Jianan City in Pingle County, but the train speed is slower than that of a car, and the number of trains is not as many as cars, so simply take a car to Jianan City first, just in time for the train.
Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu have lived in Qili Village for most of their lives, and they can still go to the capital when they are old, which makes the smiles on the faces of the two old people never break along the way.
This person was in a good mood, and even the fatigue of running around for a long time was offset, and when he arrived in the capital, the spirit of the second elder was very good, and he did not show fatigue at all.
"Shanshan, is this here?" As soon as she left the station, Grandma Lu grabbed Grandpa Lu's hand tightly and asked closely behind Lu Shan.
Lu Shan carried two big pockets in one hand, she didn't let the second elder carry heavy things, so she put the specialties prepared by Grandma Lu and their luggage into the two pockets, and she held it herself.
Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu are empty-handed, they just need to take care of themselves and don't get lost.
Lu Shan introduced the buildings and signs along the road to the second elder as she walked, and Grandma Lu pointed to a ten-story building opposite and praised: "It is worthy of the capital city!" Look at how high the building is, see how clean and spacious the road is, and there are more people than our county! ”
Grandpa Lu expressed his opinion: "This is the capital, this building is not too high, and this road is not necessarily the widest, Shanshan, do you say?" ”
Lu Shan nodded and said, "Grandma, don't patronize the building, pay attention to your feet, there are many steps here!" You can see this building every day in the future, if you like it, when you go with your grandfather, you will go out and walk around if you have nothing to do, and you will not be repeated. ”
Grandma Lu glared at her and whispered, "I don't like such a tall building, I feel stuffy and panicked when I live in it, and I'm not grounded!" I still like a house like ours in Qili Village, with yards in front and back, spacious and spacious, and I can also raise poultry and grow vegetables. Now everything in the city costs money, and the price of some vegetables is about to catch up with the price of meat, which is really a grab! Shanshan, don't you have a yard in your house, do you grow vegetables in it? ”
"You old woman, do you really think that the capital is the same as our village, there is land everywhere, and you can grow vegetables with you? This is the capital, the land is expensive, where is the place to grow vegetables for you? Without waiting for Lu Shan to answer, Grandpa Lu spoke first.
Hearing Grandpa Lu say this, Grandma Lu also understood that her desire to grow vegetables was probably frustrated, and a touch of disappointment flashed on her face.
Looking at Grandma Lu, who suddenly fell silent, Lu Shan's heart felt a little uncomfortable.
In fact, the housing prices in the capital are not high now, especially in the suburbs, where they are cheaper. And the current location of the suburbs is not bad, in another twenty years, the rapid development of urban construction, the suburbs will become every inch of land.
Lu Shan didn't want to buy too much real estate, but now she has put so much thought into it, if nothing else, just to make the old man's life more comfortable, she has to reconsider.
This is not only for Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu, but also for Ye Dezheng and Zhang Hui, both of whom have also lived in the countryside for most of their lives and have inseparable feelings for farming. Although when they first enter the city, they may have a wonderful sense of freshness in the city, and they feel that it is good to be able to live in the city, but after living for a long time, they still yearn for their own small farm yard, raising chickens and ducks in front of them and planting fruits and melons, which is their life.
Why did Zhang Hui suddenly change and sell goods with Ye Dezheng? In the final analysis, it is because they feel that their lives are insecure, and even if their sons and daughters-in-law are filial, they do not want to burden their children.
They have grown crops for most of their lives, and they have grown everything they eat, and suddenly they have to spend money to buy what they eat, and they have no bottom in their hearts!
But let them go back to Liuli Village to live, they are unwilling, not because they covet the prosperity of the big city, but because they are not willing to give up their son and daughter-in-law now.
Once this person is old, he is very fond of excitement, and no amount of money can compare with the joy of reuniting relatives.
It is said that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is not good, but there is no such statement here in Zhang Hui and Lu Shan. Of course, there will inevitably be times of disagreement in trivial life, and the difference between the views of the two generations is too far after all, not to mention that Zhang Hui and Lu Shan are not the problem of one generation or two generations.
But Lu Shan's experience is destined that she will not care too much about the trivial things in life, and Zhang Hui's character is also destined that she is not a scheming woman. And the two mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law are also generally reasonable people, and the two naturally get along very well, although they are not as close as their biological mother and daughter, but they are almost the same.
Lu Shan has no fate with her own mother in her life, so she naturally does her best for Zhang Hui, after all, she is also her mother.
Lu Shan was about to take the second elder to take the car, when she saw a taxi suddenly drive over and stop in front of her.
The driver's head sticks out of the window, and a handsome face comes into view.
"Get in the car, I'll send you." Lu Yanyi said in a nutshell.
After saying this, he opened the car door and came down to help stuff several of Lu Shan's big pockets into the trunk. And because the two big pockets were so large that the trunk couldn't be closed at all, so they had to be left open.
Lu Shan briefly introduced Lu Yan to the second elder, only saying that he used to be Ye Gang's colleague, and Grandpa Lu and Ye Dezheng had the same idea, and they both thought that Lu Yan was a taxi that he drove after retiring from the army and changing jobs.
Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu are still in a car for the first time, and the novelty is like something, look at it and that. However, the two elders are both polite people, and they did not act impolitely in front of outsiders.
The speed of the taxi was very fast, and it didn't take long to reach the gate of the courtyard. Lu Shan originally thought that there was no one at home, but she didn't expect that she could hear the noise inside from afar, which sounded very lively.
She didn't tell her family when she would come back, with the personalities of Ye Dezheng and Zhang Hui, they definitely didn't want to delay making money for no reason and stay at home.
"Hey, Shanshan, is there a guest at home, why is it so lively?" As soon as Grandma Lu got out of the car, she also heard the sound of laughter coming from the courtyard, and immediately asked suspiciously.
Lu Shan shook her head, saying that she had just come back and didn't know what was going on.
After Lu Yan took the pocket of the trunk, he said to the three of them: "Listening to this loud voice, it should be a soldier, it is estimated that Ye Gang is back, and he has brought other people, maybe it is his comrades-in-arms." ”
Lu Shan raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking that Lu Yan should have guessed correctly, Ye Gang is at home!
The expression on her face remained the same, but the joy in her eyes couldn't be hidden, Lu Yan noticed her eyes, and the smile in her eyes flashed. He weighed the weight of his pocket, and thought to himself, I am afraid that this is a special product she brought from her hometown, and it seems that she has a good fortune today.
Because someone was at home, the gate of the courtyard was not locked, Lu Shan pushed open the courtyard door, the wooden door "creaked", and the sound in the courtyard suddenly disappeared, as if it was forcibly paused.
In the courtyard were standing a few strong men wearing military trousers and bare arms, several of whom were not very old, looking like they were in their twenties, and they were standing there covered in sweat.
Lu Shan glanced sharply at the bruises on the arms and back of one of the men, as if he had just been beaten up, Lu Shan's eyes flashed clearly, these people should be Ye Gang's comrades-in-arms, they should have had a small "discussion" in the courtyard just now.
When a few people saw Lu Shan, their faces suddenly changed like a mouse seeing a cat, and they slipped faster than a mouse, and hurriedly rushed to the eaves to pick up their clothes and put them on in a hurry.
They are not exhibitionists, and the reason why they dared to take off their clothes here just now was because they saw that there were no women in the courtyard. Now I suddenly saw a bright little girl standing in front of me, and they were rough and thick-skinned, and they couldn't help blushing and being so irritable.
One of the very clever young men scratched his ears, looked at Lu Shan with a red face and asked, "This, comrade, who are you looking for?" ”
"You are Ye Gang's comrade-in-arms, I don't look for anyone, this is my family, I am Ye Gang's lover." Lu Shan replied softly, she has always had a good impression of the soldiers, especially the soldiers that Ye Gang invited home.
"You, you are the love of Captain Ye, lover?" The young man was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and as soon as his voice came out, his voice almost knocked over the tiles on the roof.
"Hello sister-in-law!"
Several other people glanced at each other, straightened their backs at the same time, stood upright, and shouted at Lu Shan like shouting slogans: "Hello sister-in-law!" Sister-in-law has worked hard! ”
"Hello, it's not hard." Lu Shan subconsciously replied, and then reacted again, what is she working on?
Perhaps seeing the confusion in Lu Shan's eyes, another young man who was as thin as a monkey suddenly squeezed over and said to Lu Shan with a smile on his face: "Hello sister-in-law, my name is Jiang Shengwu, and I know that my sister-in-law is back today, so our head of the regiment brought a few of us over to improve our lives." Sister-in-law, you must be tired after taking the train for so long, hurry up and go into the house to rest for a while, we also said that we would pick you up at the train station, and the head of the regiment said that someone would pick you up. ”
"How did Ye Gang know that I was coming back today?" Lu Shan was a little puzzled.
