"Fang Yun, you came just in time, I just wanted to find you." Stepping into the courtyard gate of the old house, Fang Zhong was chatting with Fang Changsheng, and when he saw Fang Yun coming, he said with a smile.

Seeing that Fang Zhong was so happy, Fang Yun smiled and quipped, "What's the matter, uncle?" Is it your eldest grandson who brought his girlfriend back, and it will be fun to see you. ”

"It would be nice if Mingyi really brought his girlfriend back, that stinky boy, who talks all day long about not getting married before the age of thirty, is angry with us. Fang Yun, if you help us persuade us, that stinky boy in Mingyi has always been the most obedient to you. ”

Speaking of his eldest grandson, Fang Zhong suddenly became angry, he got married early in the countryside, and others would have been grandfathers at his age, and he simply looked at Fang Yun with a blank eye.

"Uh, by the way, uncle, you just said that you were looking for me, is there anything wrong?" Fang Yun didn't want to get involved in other people's private affairs, he got married more at the age of thirty these years, so he made a fuss in the countryside, and hurriedly opened his mouth to change the topic.

"Ah yes, when you kid said it, I almost forgot about today's business." Fang Zhong suddenly reacted, remembered the purpose of coming today, and hurriedly said: "That's the case, I received a call from your grandfather a few days ago, and he plans to bring the people from his house back to the village to worship his ancestors. ”

Grandpa? It took a while to remember that my father once said that he had a grandfather, and he heard that he was a GMD soldier back then, and after the defeat, he ran to Baodao with the troops, and later went to the United States, but Fang Yun had never seen him, and the old people in the village rarely mentioned him.

"Oh, got it. Come back to worship your ancestors. Uncle, what are you so excited about? For this grandfather who has never met before, Fang Yun feels that he is a stranger, his expression is very plain, but he doesn't understand why the uncle is so excited, according to the calculation, when the grandfather ran to the treasure island, the uncle was not born yet.

"What do you kid know? Your grandfather went home to worship his ancestors, and our Fang family became even more prosperous, which is a great joy. Fang Zhong's face was full of happiness, as the village head. The prosperity of the Fang family is the happiest thing in Fang.

"Hmm. Great event. How is the uncle going to receive them? Beat gongs and drums and set off firecrackers, and then let a group of little children hold flowers and shout, welcome, welcome, warm welcome? Fang Yun asked with a smile.

Fang Zhong glared at Fang Yun angrily: "You kid." I'll be serious with you. ”

Fang Yun smiled. hurriedly said: "Isn't this a joke with you." I think you should make arrangements, uncle. ”

"I've already thought about it, but I still have to discuss this matter with everyone." Fang Zhong looked at Fang Yun a little helplessly, he had always wanted Fang Yun to take over his position as the village head. But Fang Yun refused to live or die, otherwise he would have to worry about this matter.

Fang Yunleng was stunned, and asked puzzledly: "You are the village head, what should you do, you can say it, we just follow it, what else do you need to discuss?" ”

The whole Qiaotou Village is the same surname, the village chief has always been a respected person, a bit similar to the previous patriarch, as long as the village chief decides on the general thing, everyone will obey unconditionally, dare to jump out of the crooked people, do not need the village chief to say anything, their father himself on the bamboo broom to serve.

Fang Zhong shook his head and said: "If there are some small things usually, I will make up my mind alone, but this matter is not good, I plan to pay a sum of money in the village to handle it well, and all of them will be done according to the scale of the Hakka ancestral land in the town next door in the previous two years, what do you think?" ”

Fang Yun hesitated for a moment and asked, "Uncle, wouldn't this be too grandiose, the money that needs to be spent to do it like this is not a little bit or two, although there is a little money in the village now, but there are a lot of places to use money." ”

Fang Yun had also heard people talk about the matter of worshipping ancestors in the Hakka ancestral land two years ago, after all, such a big thing is very rare in the countryside, and many old people still talk about it now.

I heard that a group of overseas Chinese came back collectively to worship their ancestors, the number of overseas Chinese alone was more than 100, the county leaders personally received the whole process, a big red carpet was spread directly from the intersection to the door of the Hakka ancestral land, more than 100 students wore customized ancient soldier armor on both sides, and the song and dance drama was performed for three consecutive days.

But this is all a trivial matter, this money does not need Fang Yun's help, the village can take it out casually now, but Fang Yun is not interested in the so-called grandfather at all, he has never said to go home to see it after going out for decades, let alone help the villagers develop.

People from other villages will donate a sum of money to come back, either to fund the schooling of the children in the village, or to help the villagers develop their economy.

Although it doesn't mean that the village really needs his money, Fang Yun really can't stand the attitude of ignoring the village for decades.

"I know, you don't think your grandfather deserves such a grand reception from us." Fang Zhong said with a wry smile.

Fang Yun smiled, didn't speak, and acquiesced to Fang Zhong's words.

Fang Zhong shook his head and said, "Actually, your grandfather has done enough, not every overseas Chinese is rich, even beggars." Your grandfather can only say that he is still alive in the United States, even if this is the case, in the past, everyone in the village who was admitted to the university was also funded by him, including you.

Otherwise, where do you think we got the money in our village to pay for your university? Just by digging in the field, it is just enough to fill your stomach, and now it is okay, I used to borrow money and there was nowhere to borrow it.

The reason why I don't let you know his news is also what your grandfather himself meant, and he feels ashamed, feels that he is not good in the United States, and he is afraid that we will laugh at him. The people of our Lao Fang family are all this stinky virtue, and they have to die to save face and suffer crimes. ”

Fang Yun was silent, for the peasants with their faces facing the loess and their backs to the sky, the tuition and living expenses of a college student ten years ago were undoubtedly a huge amount of money, when Fang Yun was admitted to the university, Fang Changsheng and Wang Jiu were excited and anxious, wasn't it because they couldn't get this money.

But soon, Fang Changsheng came back with the money, at that time Fang Yun thought that his father had borrowed it from somewhere, it turned out that his grandfather was silently sponsoring the students in the village.

Fang Yun smiled bitterly, when it comes to overseas Chinese, everyone's first reaction is that they are rich, and those overseas Chinese who go home to worship their ancestors are not donating large sums of money back to their hometowns, in fact, now that they think about it, only overseas Chinese who really make money will go home to worship their ancestors, which is the so-called returning home.

And those who didn't make money could only look at the direction of their hometown and cry silently, especially those of the older generation, who were so strong that they wanted to save face, and they really didn't have the face to go back to their hometown to face their parents and fellow villagers.

"Knowing the uncle, do everything you want, the more grand the better, let the grandfather go back to his hometown to worship his ancestors in style." After being silent for a while, Fang Yun nodded and said, I don't know why, my heart suddenly felt a little sour, and an old man with gray hair seemed to appear in front of him, silently looking at the direction of his hometown and shedding tears.

Fang Zhong smiled and nodded: "That's okay, I'll arrange someone to handle it, but those young people in the village want you to come forward, they are all very rebellious, and even their parents can't control them, and only you can suppress those leather monkeys." ”

"Don't worry, uncle, whoever dares to jump out and chirp crookedly, I will slap him to death." Nodding vigorously, Fang Yun knew that in fact, many young people in the village had only occasionally heard of such a grandfather, and suddenly received him home to worship his ancestors so ceremoniously, there must be some people who had opinions in their hearts, just like they did at the beginning.

As expected, Fang Zhong's decision was strongly approved by all the old people in the village, and they excitedly instructed the young people in the family to help prepare, while some young people who were in the rebellious period complained a lot, and they felt that there was not enough time to entertain tourists, and they had to put down what they were doing to rehearse.

However, after Fang Yun stood up and announced his full support for Fang Zhong's decision, all the opposition and complaints were gone, Fang Yun was now a super idol for all young people, they could not listen to the words of the old people in the family, but they obeyed Fang Yun's decision unconditionally.

This is also one of the reasons why Fang Zhonghui has always wanted to give up the position of village chief to Fang Yun, Fang Yun's prestige in the village is too great, even the most naughty bear children, who even dislike dogs, are also obedient to Fang Yun.

"Stand still! Raise your head and chest and stomach tucked! What does it look like to be loose and sloppy, and none of them have eaten enough. The big men with five big and three thick feet stood squirming like a girl. ”

A group of young people wearing armor stood by the river beach for rehearsals, Lao Li held a bamboo in his hand, standing in front of the team, foaming at the mouth, Fang Yun asked Lao Li to help train these young people, at least when receiving the grandfather's family, Lao Li agreed without saying a word, and almost trained these people as his subordinates back then.

A group of young people were miserable, the armor was specially customized by Fang Yun, the leather was inlaid with iron sheets, it looked very majestic, and they also carried an unopened waist knife, and a set of equipment weighed more than 20 catties.

At the beginning, everyone was still excited, one by one wearing armor proudly showing, after a long time, they would suffer, and it was uncomfortable to stand in a military posture for a long time, not to mention that everyone was still wearing more than 20 pounds of armor waist knife, and now everyone felt that this set of armor was like a mountain pressing on them.

Once the training began, Lao Li, who was originally amiable in everyone's impression, immediately changed his appearance, and the old general who came out of the rain of bullets made everyone creepy, so terrible, everyone almost blurted out: murderous!

"What are they doing? It's fun to wear this armor. The side was full of tourists, all pointing with excitement, it seems that there is another show in this village, so I am looking forward to it. (To be continued......)
