Chapter 290: The Chen Family Bookstore

When Chen Guan returned to Wulongyu, it was already more than 11 o'clock in the morning.

He didn't go back to Wulongyu for three months, and Chen Guan felt a little timid about his hometown.

Last time Chen Guan returned to Wulongyu to attend the opening ceremony of the Bai family compound, the night before leaving, Bai Aiyue couldn't stand the pain of longing and secretly went to see Chen Guan. When the love between two people is strong, you love me, and the river of love surges. However, the two Bai patriotic brothers saw through the mystery and pulled Xu Zhonghou to catch the traitor, and they almost succeeded. If it weren't for Chen Guan's miraculous skills, things might have become out of control. Chen Guan's mood when he left Wulongyu can be imagined, it is very complicated! After returning to Tonghua Town, Chen Guan quickly got involved in the case, fought for more than two months, and finally solved the "10?20" series of robbery, rape and murder cases, and was also promoted to deputy director of the Mingshui County Public Security Bureau. Returning to Wulongyu at this time, Chen Guan's mood was equally complicated, he didn't know if it was the eager eyes of the people in the village who greeted him, or the disdainful eyes!

Because Chen Xuezhi had already called yesterday, Li Fulai, Bai Aixiao, and Bai Aiyue all knew that Chen Guan was coming back, and it stands to reason that Chen Guan should first go to the Bai family compound to meet Li Fulai and them to hear the progress of the second phase of the project. But Chen Guan was very conflicted, and he didn't go to the Bai family's compound, but drove the car straight to the gate of his own courtyard.

Three months can do a lot of things, Chen Xuezhi and Zheng Yulian did not follow their son to Tonghua Town at that time, staying at home to build a house, and now, a courtyard with blue bricks and blue tiles stands in front of Chen Guan's eyes.

Standing in front of his own courtyard, Chen Guan rubbed his eyes, and wondered for a while: Is this the courtyard of the Chen family where the old Chen family has lived for generations?

Just when Chen Guan was puzzled, he heard the sound of car brakes, and Chen Xuezhi and Zheng Yulian walked out.

Seeing her son, Zheng Yulian asked happily: "Guanzi, are you back?" Fast into the hospital! ”

The courtyard of the Chen family turned out to be an old yard with a tiled roof and adobe walls, which was indeed dilapidated, Chen Guan had already agreed with his parents to rebuild the yard, but he didn't expect his parents to repair the yard so well!

Chen Xuezhi saw his son standing in front of the door and stopped, not going into the yard, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Guanzi, I think with your mother, you are not young, it's time to talk about your daughter-in-law." In the past, our family was poor, the yard was not like a yard, and the house was not like a house, even if there was a good girl who took a fancy to you, other people's parents did not look down on our family. Therefore, this time to repair the house, I discussed with your mother, to repair it a little more magnificently, in the future, you will talk to the object, bring the girl back, look at our house, and it is not shabby. This was built into five two-story quadrangle courtyards, and the villagers all said it was good! In the past few days, several people in Longwan Town have sent letters saying that they are willing to introduce you to someone! ”

Chen Guan remained silent, squinting his eyes and looking at the new courtyard that his parents had demolished and rebuilt the old yard.

The five-bay two-storey building facing the street is a blue brick and blue tile, and the first floor is a faΓ§ade room; The gate of the courtyard faces east, and instead of the traditional brick and wood gatehouse, it adopts the modern gate model: two brick gray cement pillars, pasted with maroon bricks, and a round lampshade on each of the pillars, which is similar to the gate of the county party committee guest house, but no one has the width of the gate!

Seeing that her son didn't speak, Zheng Yulian panicked, and she was still counting on her son to come back to pay the arrears for the construction of the house!

Zheng Yulian stepped forward and took her son's hand and said in a low voice: "Guanzi, if you have something to say in the courtyard, don't let the people in the village see the joke!" ”

Chen Guan shook his hand and said hatefully: "Are you still afraid of the jokes of the villagers? I don't think you and my father want to rebuild the yard, but want to be more generous than the old landlord of the Bai family! ”

These words sounded so harsh, Zheng Yulian felt that she was dedicated to her son and bothered to build a house, but she didn't expect her son to not only admit his feelings, but also speak so ugly, he was wronged when he landed, and tears rolled down.

Chen Xuezhi immediately said: "Guanzi, you are such an adult, why are you becoming more and more ignorant?" Your mother is not in good health, what are you doing to make her angry? What's so great about being a police station chief? Don't you even recognize your own mother? ”

Chen Guan is very filial, and he has never made his parents angry when he grows so big. Last time at the first general meeting of shareholders of Wulongyu Tourism Development Co., Ltd., Chen Xuezhi and Zheng Yulian did not vote according to Chen Guan's request, which provoked Chen Guan to say unpleasant things to his parents for the first time, this is the second time!

Chen Guan sighed, raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his mother's face, pulled his mother's hand, and walked into the courtyard.

When he entered the hospital, the gloom on Chen Guan's face became even greater!

The big walnut tree in the yard is still there, and the log table made of the big tree pimples that Chen Guan has climbed on to do homework since he was a child is also there, and a small flower bed has been built, and the original dirt soil has also been turned into a green brick pavement.

What made Chen Guan's face even more gloomy was that the east and west wings had become two-story small buildings with blue brick and blue tiles, and the upper room was also a two-story small building with blue bricks and blue tiles, but the depth was a little deeper, the building was a little higher, and the brick carvings on the roof looked vivid.

Chen Guan moved a chair and asked his mother to sit down, pulled a stool to sit down, took out a cigarette, lit one for his father who came in, and smoked one himself, silently.

Chen Xuezhi took two puffs of cigarettes, and when he saw that his son was still silent, he knew that his son thought that the house was built too well and too conspicuous!

Chen Xuezhi said: "Guanzi, last time you said that you would build the upper room into a two-story small building, covered with tiles, the east and west wings and the front house are all one floor, the ceiling inside is the ceiling of the bungalow, and the top is the ridge attic, and the engraving and printing club is opened. Your mother and I hired someone to design and construct according to your requirements. It's just that the people who designed it said that Wulongyu has become a tourist attraction, every inch of land is expensive, and the east and west wings and the front house only build one layer of wasted land, so it has also been built into two floors. You will go and see in a while, the faΓ§ade room on the first floor of the former house is now used by Lao Xu and them as a plate-making and printing workshop, the second floor is where Lao Xu and his apprentices live, the west wing and the east wing, I discussed with your mother that we can set up a family hotel, and we can receive tourists in the spring of next year. In the future, you live on the first floor, the east one is your bedroom, the middle three living rooms, the west one is the children's bedroom, and your mother and I live on the second floor. This is all discussed repeatedly with your Uncle Xueyi and Fu Laizi, and everyone agrees! Why are you unhappy? ”

Chen Guan sighed and said, "Dad, Mom, I said that I would let you build the upper room into a two-story small building, but I also said that I would let you build the east and west wings and the front house into a one-story building. Why don't you listen to my words? I know what you think, because I think it's not easy to repair a house, and if you want to repair it, you should repair it with style. But have you ever thought about it, why did our family build such a good yard? Where did you get the money? What do others think? Those who know how much they say we earned it, but I don't know how much money I think I am embezzling and taking bribes! Why don't you use your brains and think about the impact! ”

Chen Xuezhi was not convinced, and muttered: "We didn't steal it, we didn't rob it, it was my son who was framed by others and had to open a gold mine, so what is the impact?" ”

Chen Guan sighed again and said, "I am the deputy director of the Mingshui County Public Security Bureau!" ”

Chen Xuezhi was stunned for a moment, and asked for a long time: "What?" What are you doing? ”

Chen Guan didn't say anything, and smoked with his head down.

Zheng Yulian's eyes were completely devoid of tears, and her tone was full of surprise: "Guanzi, are you the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau?" God, God has finally opened his eyes and seen my son's ability! His father, hurry up and cut meat to buy wine, call Fulaizi and Xueyi to them, let's celebrate! ”

Chen Guan stopped his mother's loss of tension, threw away the cigarette butts, and said: "Dad, Mom, think about it, I became the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, and I built such a good house in my hometown, and it spread to the ears of the leaders, what would people think?" You're still not letting me do my job? ”

Zheng Yulian was in a hurry now, and hurriedly asked: "Guanzi, then what do you say?" We can't tear the house down, can we? ”

Chen Xuezhi was also anxious, he knew that without his son, there would be no such thing in front of him, and he would definitely not be able to do anything that would affect his son's future!

I heard Chen Xuezhi say: "Guanzi, what do you say? If it really doesn't work, let's sell the yard? But this is the ancestral home of our old Chen family, and the older generations have lived on this land! ”

The butt decides the head, it is an unbreakable truth!

When the Bai family compound opened, Chen Guan took his parents back to Wulongyu and decided to let his parents rebuild the courtyard, and said that he would build the upper house into a two-story building. Now that the house has been built, although the east and west wings and the former house have been built into two-story buildings, and the scale has expanded a lot, on the whole, compared with the reconstruction plan he proposed, it is only a matter of 50 steps and 100 steps. It was nothing, but Chen Guan had just been interviewed by Vice Minister Wang Zhelin in the Organization Department of the county party committee in the morning, and his mind was full of public life and honesty, his mentality changed, and the thoughts in his mind also changed.

Chen Guan was thinking at this time that his yard was so magnificent, and spreading it would make people gossip, resent his parents for being ignorant, and causing him trouble!

The house was finally built, demolition is the stupidest way, and he is reluctant to sell it, after all, this is the yard left by his ancestors, and the land reform has not taken away a penny, let him sell it now, not to mention whether someone buys it or not, he himself is not reluctant!

After pondering for a while, Chen Guan said to Chen Xuezhi and Zheng Yulian: "Dad, Mom, we can't live in this house anyway, it's too eye-catching!" I thought it would be better to do this, so I simply turned the whole courtyard into the Chen Family Bookstore, and the upper room and the east and west wings were all converted into a small printing exhibition hall, and the two-story building of the former house was reserved for plate making and book printing. The whole courtyard becomes a small scenic spot in Wulongyu for visitors to visit. Let's go to the hillside outside the village to build the courtyard of Wulongyu New Rural Planning on the hillside outside the village, and live there in the future. Do you think it's okay? ”

Zheng Yulian married into the old Chen family, when did she live such a good life now? I finally rebuilt the old yard and built such a magnificent house, but I didn't live there for long, and my son didn't let me live in it anymore. What do you mean by that?
