Chapter 15: The second grandmother is back
At eight o'clock, Wang Yong and his old uncle returned home and pulled a cart of vegetables and meat. The trunk doesn't fit, and the back seat is almost full. The old mansion is already full of people. The aunt and uncle also arrived, and many people close to the village also came over and were helping in the yard, while the man and the uncle were installing the rented pot and stew in place. There are also a few people who are building sheds, and as soon as a few steel pipes are connected and covered with canvas, the shed is built. Not to mention social development, many new industries have been born. Today's pots and pans, as well as three iron stoves, and a shed are all directly assembled, and the rent is not expensive, but it really saves a lot of trouble. This kind of thing, which can not only make money but also provide convenience for everyone, is now very popular with rural people.
After Wang Yong's uncle, brother, sister and sister-in-law greeted each other, a group of people moved the meat and vegetables in the car to the courtyard, washing the vegetables and cutting the meat, and processing the fish...... It seems that the uncle has already arranged who will do what, there are dozens of people here, everyone has their own duties, not chaotic at all, and orderly. Boss Wang, the chef in the village, is directing people to prepare steamed rice. Speaking of which, Wang Yong is a family that has not produced five suits, Wang Boss and Uncle are of the same generation, but Boss Wang is more than ten years younger than Uncle, and he is over fifty this year. Boss Wang used to be a cook in the army for more than ten years, and when he was discharged from the army, he was the secretary of the company, and after returning home, he worked as a cook in a city restaurant for several years. Later, I felt that my parents were old and I didn't want to work outside, so I went home. Whenever someone in the surrounding ten miles and eight villages has something to set up a banquet, it is proud to be able to invite Boss Wang, and when it is said that today's dish is the spoon of Boss Wang in Banshan Village, it will definitely make the host receive a compliment. A few years ago, Boss Wang usually cooked for people, and the host usually gave a few packs of cigarettes and packed some leftovers. In the past few years, the conditions have been good, in addition to packing meals, the host also has to give a cigarette and a red envelope ranging from one hundred and two hundred, so Boss Wang is a very good family in the village, and his prestige is only below Wang Yaowu and Uncle among his peers.
Seeing that everyone was busy, Wang Yong took out a box of Yuxi cigarettes that he specially bought today, and gave cigarettes to the men one by one, one box per person, which made the people in the village coax for a while, saying that Wang Yong had made a fortune outside. After all, the people in the village set up a banquet at most seven pieces of cloud smoke, and these twenty-two boxes of Yuxi are reluctant. Some people still coaxed to rely on today's Yuxi, Wang Yong to be the village head, and he agreed to let everyone hahadaxiao. Wang Yong didn't expect that a box of Yuxi would make the villagers recognize him as the village head, and he originally wanted to thank the villagers for taking care of his brother in the past few years, but he didn't expect to receive an unexpected joy.
Everyone chatted playfully, and from time to time made fun of Wang Yong, the village chief who had not yet left, and talked about the short Li family of Zhang's family, and it was already half past ten when he was busy. Suddenly I heard the sound of a car outside, was Wang Qiang back, Wang Yong thought as he walked out.
"Third child, are you coming out to pick up customers?"
Wang Yong, who walked to the door, heard such a voice and knew that Yu Yaosheng was coming, and came out to take a look, sure enough, Yu Yaosheng, Du Zhiyou, and Liu Mei were all here, and they were about to greet a few people, and two more cars came behind, Wang Qiang and Liu Jun got out of the car respectively, and as soon as they got off the car, Liu Jun shouted: "Wang Yong, hurry up to greet my uncle." ”
Hearing this voice, Wang Yongmeng was stunned. The two friends were happy.
"Okay, third child, do you have these silent brothers and sisters?"
"TELL ME HONESTLY, WHERE ARE MY BROTHER AND SISTER, LET'S LOOK, LOOK." After some explanation, a group of people entered the courtyard, all of whom were acquaintances, and they didn't need to introduce them to their families, so they could do whatever they could do. Wang Yong was dealing with a group of gossip men and women in the village about Tian Yuanyuan, and he remembered the sound of cars outside.
Wang Yong hurriedly came out, and the idle uncle also came out. I saw two Audi cars with Beijing plates just stopped, and a strong man got down from the first and second cars, and after getting out of the car, he first carefully looked at the surrounding situation, and then opened the door of the second car, and a few people got out of the car. Isn't this the second wife? Why is there such a big show? Just wondering, the uncle has already greeted him. Watching the uncle greet the group of people and lead them over, Wang Yong was still confused when he got to Wang Yong's side?
"Second grandmother, you miss me." After Wang Yong finished speaking, he hugged the second wife. Since he was a child, the second mother has loved Wang Yong the most, and the other brothers and sisters have complained a lot, making Wang Yong closer to the second mother than to his mother. The relationship between grandparents and grandchildren is incomparable to anyone. I haven't seen it for several years, but when I see it, I think of the ups and downs of being outside these years, and my eyes are red.
"Okay, such an adult, and still coquettish with the second wife, don't be ashamed, they are all people who want to be the village head, but you can't drop the golden bean!" The second grandmother kindly patted Wang Yong's shoulder.
Uncle can't stand it, such an adult doesn't understand any politeness, haven't you seen so many people still outside?
"It's done, what do you grandparents and grandchildren say in the house, and there are still guests?"
Hearing the uncle's words, Wang Yongcai cleaned up his mood and helped the second wife, and while letting him inside, he looked at the three strangers around him. A woman of about forty years of age, dressed in a gray professional suit, with a kind smile on her face. Looking around from time to time, I can see that I should have grown up in the city and am very curious about everything in the countryside. There is a man and a woman beside her, the man should be in his twenties, with Wang Yong's fiery eyes that he has practiced for several years in the dry bath, he knows at a glance that he is a person in the system, and the woman looks like she is twenty years old, with a long black sweater on her upper body covering her buttocks, black second tights on her lower body, a pair of black boots on her feet, fair skin and those flashing eyes, what a quirky young beautiful girl. Probably feeling Wang Yong's gaze, the girl looked back at Wang Yong, and then made a grimace at Wang Yong.
"You girl, don't be naughty with your brother." The second grandmother patted the girl, causing her to pout her pink lips with dissatisfaction, and glared at Wang Yong fiercely.
At this time, everyone had already walked into the courtyard, and everyone who got the news also greeted them, and after greeting the second grandmother, they all secretly looked at the three strangers and the two people they brought who looked like bodyguards. Everyone in the village knows that the second master and the second grandmother were big officials in City B back then, and they must know some officials, but this is the first time they have really seen it with their own eyes. So the fire of gossip burned.
Wang Yong didn't feel anything, after getting Xiaoguang and Xiaoshijie, except for the relatives around him or the people he was interested in, he would always be smiling and harmless in front of others. This is a mask to protect himself after sitting down in the service industry for several years, coupled with his introverted and honest personality, he has always been respectful of irrelevant people. Although only a few people obviously have an unusual relationship with the second wife, are they not familiar with it? Except for the girl who felt very kind to Wang Yong, the others were automatically ignored.
At this moment, the second master came out of the house. As soon as the little girl saw the second master, she let go of the hand holding the second grandmother and ran to the second master with cheers.
"Grandpa, Qianqian has come to see you."
Grandpa, what's the situation? Wang Yong looked at a group of people who were as stupid as himself, and thought puzzled. Well, there is a situation? Uncle and aunt don't seem to be surprised at all, how did Wang Qiang talk to that system man, it seems to be very familiar.
"Hehe, Qianqian misses grandpa, then stay a few more days, grandpa will take you up the mountain to catch pheasants and hares." The second master happily looked at the girl holding his arm.
"Really?" The girl asked excitedly, and then said to the second master with a sad face: "No, I still have to go to school, my mother won't agree?" ”
"It's okay, you can't make a mistake a few days later, grandpa will call the shots for you."
"Grandpa Xiexie, grandpa is the best." The girl smiled and glanced at the middle-aged woman.
"You girl, don't be naughty, you have to listen to your grandparents, do you know?" The middle-aged woman said with a doting face.
"Eun, I will definitely listen to grandpa." The girl nodded hurriedly.
"Let's all go inside, don't stand in the yard." Uncle said on the side.
When they entered the house, everyone found a place to sit down, but if they could not sit down, they could only stand. A group of gossip men and women had their windows tightly blocked at the door, all waiting for someone to introduce the origin of the three of them.
"Second uncle, who are these three? You always give introductions, huh? "The aunt, who is a teacher in the county high school with her uncle, couldn't help but ask first, and a group of people nodded their heads.
The second master looked at everyone, didn't speak for a long time, and fell into memories. After waiting for a long time, the second master opened his mouth to find out where they came from. One sentence made everyone dumbfounded.
"This is my daughter-in-law, grandson, granddaughter."
"What? You heard it right."
"Isn't the second uncle childless?"
"How is that possible?" …… There was a burst of discussion, and the news was really amazing. People of a certain age remember that when the second master returned to the village in 75, it was said that the child had died. At that time, Wang Yong's grandfather still insisted on passing on his uncle to him, how come more than 30 years have passed, where did a son come from, is it possible to become a godson?
The second master and the others talked a little quieter, and then explained the original situation. It turned out that back then, the second grandfather was the commander of the capital garrison and the commander of the garrison division, and the second wife was the medical staff next to Premier Zhou, and there was a son who was less than four years old. After that famous defection incident, the Gang of Four held a grudge against the second master, who never pretended to be a color to themselves and had heavy troops in the capital, and used the defection incident to try to take down the second master. A group of rebels were encouraged to go to the second grandfather's house to raid the house, just in time for a family of three to be there, the second grandfather and the second grandmother were kidnapped by the rebels and paraded in the street, and the son, who was less than four years old, saw his parents being kidnapped by a group of people, cried and chased out, and was kicked by a rebel and dizzy. In a crazy era, this kind of thing can happen every day, even if the second master is a commander with tens of thousands of elites in his hands, there is nothing he can do. After the political commissar who learned the news arrived with people, he took Wang Dajun back to his home and handed it over to his wife to take care of, and then hurriedly reported to the military region. No one noticed that Wang Dajun, who woke up, quietly left, and never knew where to go.
Later, after the prime minister learned about it, he intervened, and the chairman also became wary of the increasingly unscrupulous Gang of Four, not to mention that the second master was a close person to the chairman, otherwise he would not have been placed in the position of the number one in the capital garrison. Under the attention of the chairman and the prime minister, the second grandfather and the second grandmother were quickly released. But his son Wang Dajun didn't know where to go, which made the second mother, who couldn't accept the reality, fall ill all of a sudden. In addition, although he was released, the second master's anger became more and more uncontrollable due to the review every now and then, and the second grandmother's body became worse and worse. Seeing this situation, the second master directly sent a report to the Military Commission and said that he would go back to his hometown to farm. Zhang ××, who had just become the director of the General Political Department at that time, immediately approved the report and secretly destroyed the second master's file.
The second master quietly left the capital with the second grandmother, and no one knew where they went. The old comrades-in-arms sent people to Banshan Village to look for them, and found Wang Guodong, the village party secretary and village chief at that time, but they didn't expect Wang Guoliang to not return to his hometown. After Wang Guodong scolded the people, the group was driven out of the village. A month after they left, the second master came back with the second grandmother. The grandfather, who had long known what was going on, did not tell anyone the details, but Zhang Luo built a house for the two of them, and passed the uncle to the second grandfather, and the second grandfather and the second grandmother lived in the village in this way. After the special period, I heard that there were still people in the capital who wanted to invite the second master to return to Beijing to take up a post, but the second master refused, and asked the central government to keep it secret for his province.
A while ago, Wang Qiang went to Beijing to handle a case, and accidentally encountered a mother and daughter who were robbed by thieves, Wang Qiang and his colleagues subdued the gangsters cleanly and brought the thief to the police station. Unexpectedly, a very dignified man who claimed to be the lady's husband who rushed to the police station later saw Wang Qiang, and he was dumbfounded.
After coming back to his senses, he excitedly asked Wang Qiang's family situation. Looking at the cautious appearance of the leader of the Jingcheng City Bureau who was accompanying the man, Wang Qiang knew that this person must be from a lot of background, so he happily told him about his situation. When the man heard the name of the second master, Wang Guoliang, he was immediately excited and burst into tears. It turned out that he was the son of the second master, Wang Dajun, who was lost back then. It turned out that he came out of the political commissar's house and walked around the city alone to find his parents. After looking for a few days, I suffered a lot, but I didn't find it, but fortunately I was a demobilized soldier Yujian who was in the guard company of the military region. He recognized Dajun as the son of Master Ye, and thinking of the current situation of Master Ye and his wife, he took Wang Dajun back to SD's hometown to hide, and said that he was an orphan he picked up on the road.
Wang Dajun also always thought that his parents had passed away and he was an orphan. Because when he was born, the special period was the time when there was a lot of trouble, in order not to cause trouble for the eldest brother in the village, the second master never told others about the situation in his family. Wang Dajun didn't know that he also had an uncle in his rural hometown. It was not until he was transferred from the post of secretary of the Southeast City Municipal Party Committee to Beijing as deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission that he met the political commissar of the original garrison and learned from him that he still had an uncle in his rural hometown. Originally, he was going to go to his hometown to see the uncle he had never met in the next few days, but he didn't expect to see a person who was very similar to his father in his memory today, and what he didn't expect was that this person was actually the uncle's grandson, and what surprised him even more was that his parents were still alive. Wang Qiang was also dumbfounded, he didn't expect that his uncle, the son of the second master, who had died a long time ago, in the village, was still alive and was touched by himself.
The second grandfather, second grandmother, and old couple who received the news didn't wait for Wang Dajun to come over, and directly asked Wang Dahai to charter a car to send the old couple to City B. After that, the second master won't talk about it anymore. I just didn't tell you that I wanted to find an opportunity for everyone to get together so that everyone could meet together. This time, Wang Dajun went abroad with the leader on a visit, but he couldn't come, so he asked his wife and children to come to meet his relatives at home on his behalf, and then come back to see everyone when he came back.
After that, the second master began to introduce everyone to Wang Dajun's wife Zhang Fang, son Wang Gang, and daughter Wang Qian. After being introduced, the family affection from the body's blood inheritance made everyone feel a lot less strange, and they soon chatted affectionately.
After a lively feast, the news that the second master's lost son had found him and was still a senior official in the capital spread throughout the village. But that's the way it is in the countryside, everything is a bustle, and then it's over, and it doesn't keep people in the spotlight. Zhang Fang and Wang Gang returned to City B on the same day, they themselves have jobs, and they can't delay too much time. The second grandmother was sad for a while because of her grandson's departure, but with Wang Qian's clever, well-behaved and sensible granddaughter, she forgot about her grandson for a long time.
