Chapter 123: Take your daughter-in-law home

On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, snow fell in Chang'an. β—Ž

In the small village near Nanshan, the snow is heavier, and a thin layer has accumulated on the ground.

Di Yun called home before leaving the capital, and at this time, Di Jiadi's mother looked at the alarm clock on the wall and said, "It's past four o'clock, why haven't you come back yet, I'll go to the intersection to take a look." ”

"Mom, I'll go with you." Di Xiaoyu said with a smile.

Di's father didn't say anything but put on his coat, obviously planning to go together. When he was about to go out, the old man also joined in, and the whole family went out collectively.

"Dad, why did you come out too?" Father Di said, "It's snowing outside, it's cold, and it's not easy to walk, so you better wait at home." ”

"Why is there so much nonsense? Let's go! "The old man doesn't appreciate it.

Di Xiaoyu stuck out his tongue at his father, ran to the old man with a smile and held his arm and said, "Grandpa, I'm holding you." ”

"Hehe... Okay, it's still Xiaoyu. The old man said with a smile. In the Di family, the old man is the authority and never obeys the old, if others dare to say that I am holding you, it will definitely be a stick to knock over, but Di Xiaoyu said that it is a different scene.

There is no entertainment program in the small mountain village, and people are interested in nothing more than some parents, and yesterday Di Yun called to tell SΓΉ that he would bring his girlfriend back, and basically the whole village knew about it.

"Uncle Di, I heard that Bajin came back today and brought a daughter-in-law from the capital?"

"Haha... That's what he said when he called back, and he didn't know if it was true or not. ”

"I heard that girl is still a big star?"

"Bajin said that he was his classmate, and he probably also acted in TV."

……

A short section of the road is a "hearing" all the way. Di's father and Di's mother both replied with smiles on their faces, clearly modest, and secretly proud.

Out of the village. Di Mu asked Xiaoyu, "Have you met your brother's girlfriend?" How do you feel? ”

Di Xiaoyu was speechless: "Mom, you've asked seven or eight times, don't I tell you, sister-in-law, is not only generous and beautiful, but also has a good temperament, and is very easy to get along with, so don't worry." ”

"Can I not worry about me?" Di Mu said, "If you meet someone with a bad personality, how will you get along with each other at that time?" ”

Most people in rural areas will worry about the problem of getting along with their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Di Yun and Lao Xu arrived at Xianyang Airport first by plane. Then rushed from Xianyang to Chang'an, and then took the shuttle bus home from the bus station in Chang'an, which was a lot of bumps along the way.

At this moment, the two of them were sitting on the minibus, crowded with a full cart of people, and the two of them shared a seat, and Lao Xu curled up almost all of his body in Di Yun's arms.

After squinting for a while, his spirit improved a lot, and he looked at the world outside that was gradually becoming silver and asked, "I feel like it's been a long time, why haven't I arrived yet?" ”

"It's coming! Do you see the mountain in front of you, but at the foot of the mountain. Di Yun said.

"I'm a little nervous, what should I do?" Lao Xu asked.

"Nervous about what?"

"I don't know. It's nervous anyway. ”

"Don't worry." Di Yun comforted, "My parents are not mean people, they are easy to get along with." ”

"What if I'm not satisfied?"

"Hah! No, it won't. Definitely satisfied. You are such a beautiful and virtuous daughter-in-law in the city, my parents must like it. ”

"Really?"

"Well, there's no need to worry about that."

The shuttle bus stopped, and the two got off the bus with large bags and small bags. A family waiting at the intersection greeted them.

Lao Xu knew Xiaoyu, and the identities of other people would definitely be able to guess it, and he followed Di Yun a little nervously.

Di Xiaoyu came over to help her carry the things in her hand and introduced them to her one by one.

"This is Grandpa."

"Hello grandpa."

"Okay, okay." The old man smiled and took out a trembling wooden box from his arms and handed it to her, "When we met for the first time, grandpa didn't have anything good to give you, just such an old thing, you take it." ”

The elders don't dare to resign, no matter whether it is valuable or not, they have to take it first. Lao Xu took it, opened it and looked at it, it was a string of beads with a very bright color, I liked it very much, and quickly thanked him.

Xiaoyu continued: "This is my mom and my dad. ”

"Hello uncle and aunt!"

"Good!" Di Mu couldn't smile from ear to ear, not to mention how her temperament was, she was still very satisfied with her appearance, she took Lao Xu's hand and said, "It's been hard along the way, right?" ”

"It's not hard, there are eight catties to take care of along the way." Lao Xu said.

Di's father took over what Di Yun had in his hands in the past.

Back in the village, the small village was lively because of the daughter-in-law of the capital, and they opened the door to watch, even the snowflakes in the sky could not stop the enthusiasm.

"The daughter-in-law in the city is beautiful!"

"Yes, it looks different from ours in this ravine!"

"I think it's still eight catties of this doll has the ability, and the ones in the city can also be brought back!"

"Huh? Why do I look at this girl so familiar? ”

"Just blow it! I heard that it was a girl from the capital, haven't you ever been to the capital? ”

"I haven't been to the capital, but I just look a little familiar."

Another person said, "When you say that, I look a little familiar to me." ”

"Hey! Come to think of it! Isn't this the Wen Hui who played on CCTV a few days ago! ”

"Yes! I heard that the daughter-in-law who brought back Bajin is a star, but I didn't expect it to be! ”

Lao Xu has also seen a big scene, and he has also seen the scene of more onlookers, but it is the first time to be watched by the villagers at this time, and he feels very strange and unnatural, and whispers to Di Yun beside him: "How do I feel like I have become a giant panda?" ”

Di Yun replied with a smile: "Daughter-in-law in the capital! It's so much more exotic than a giant panda here! ”

It took two or three minutes to get home. It was getting late, Di's mother went into the kitchen to prepare dinner, and Lao Xu's new daughter-in-law entered the door, and she always had to watch xiΓ n and follow in.

The old man said to Di Yun: "You come with me, I have something to say to you." ”

Di Yun followed the old man into the room and asked him to help remove the wardrobe, and there was a secret compartment on the ground below.

He was very surprised, and felt that this grandfather was becoming more and more mysterious.

The old man took out a small box from it, shook off the dust, did not open it immediately, pressed it under his hand and asked, "Have you bought a house in the capital?" ”

"Well, yes." Di Yun said, "I was going to stay in the capital to develop, thinking that I couldn't always rent a house to live in, so I bought a set." ”

"Is there enough money?"

"Enough, I have made some money from making movies and TV in the past two years, plus Xiao Xu's, I didn't pull the account."

"Enough is enough." The old man said, "It's a good thing that you have a house in the capital, but you can't live in the capital all the time, and you have to have a place to stay in Chang'an. ”

"Old yard?" It was the first time Di Yun had heard of it, and he was a little surprised.

"Hmm." The old man nodded and told him a story he didn't know.

It turned out that the previous generation of the Di family and the old man's generation all had some elements of the Kuomintang, but they did not leave with them later, but continued to stay in the mainland, and the old man also participated in the Korean War and the Vietnam War, and whitewashed his identity.

But at that time in the seventies, it was too terrifying, and any small stain would be infinitely magnified, and the old man was afraid that the fire would also burn himself, so he sold his old yard where he had lived in Chang'an City for generations and moved to this small village that was relatively far away from the outside world.

Now that more than 20 years have passed, everything has changed, and he no longer has to worry about the identity of decades ago, and he wants to redeem the old courtyard of his ancestors again.

Di Yun digested the information he heard, and said with a smile: "This is a good thing, how much does it cost, and I can still ...... it here."

The old man smiled and waved his hand: "I don't need your money yet." As he spoke, he opened the box under his hand, "That's all there is to it." ”

Di Yun was stunned when he saw it, there were a few big yellow croakers lying in the box!

That's right! It is the kind of big gold bar of ten taels in the Republic of China.

According to the conversion of 1 (catty) = 16 (taels) in that period, one is about 317 (grams), and the current price of gold is about 90 yuan 1 gram, if you calculate it, one is worth more than 30,000, and five is more than 150,000.

To be honest, 150,000 yuan is nothing for him now, but this shock is still quite big.

"After the New Year, call Xiao Xu together, you and I will go to see the old yard and buy it back." The old man said.

Di Yun nodded stunned.

The snow kept falling for the next few days, and Lao Xu liked this kind of scenery of the world and the world, so he pulled him around the nearby mountains and took pictures.

After the first day of junior high school, Di Yun began to take Lao Xu to visit the New Year, there are not many relatives, they are all from Di's mother's side, and it will be over in three days.

On the fifth day of the new year, he took his girlfriend and the old man out to see the old yard, of course, followed by a tail, Di Xiaoyu.

The old courtyard is on the side of Xihuamen, not far from Tongjifang. The four of them searched for a long time but didn't find the old courtyard that the old man said, but they saw an unexpected person.

Zhang Yimou!

"Uncle Zhang?" "Uncle Di?"

Di Yun is calling Lao Mouzi, but Lao Mouzi is calling Lao Mouzi.

The old man's eyes lit up and asked, "Xiao Zhang, I remember that your house was not far from my house at that time, and I couldn't find the old yard when I came to look for it, so you took me over to have a look." ”

"The old yard...", the old man smacked his mouth twice and said, "This old area has been demolished since last year, and the old yard is no longer there." ”

"Gone?" The old man was stunned, then looked around, sighed, a little sad, but didn't reveal too much, and said, "I haven't seen your father for several years, is he okay?" ”

"My father passed away two years ago." The old man said, "I happened to meet you today, come to my house and sit down, it's not far away." ”

"I've passed away..."The old man's feelings were lowered this time, the old yard was demolished, and the old friend passed away, so he lost interest all of a sudden, waved his hand and said, "Alas... Never mind. ”

The old man stood there and watched the figures of the four people leaving, his eyes lingering on Di Xiaoyu's body for a while, with some scrutiny.
