Chapter 071 Land Grant
Lunch was rich, and the big guy ate with a mouthful of oil.
"Xiaoxiao, your ancestor misses you, you have to accompany her well when you come back for the New Year this time."
Grandma is very filial, and while taking care of Zuzu's food and vegetables, she carefully asks about Ai Xiaoyu's learning in the new school.
"Well, I know, Grandma."
After eating, Ai Xiaoyu picked up Zuzu and said, "Zuzu, when we come back this time, we bought a new set of clothes for Zuzu, let's go back to your house and try them on, Zuzu!" ”
Zuzu is old and has some ears behind his back, so he must speak to her loudly.
"New clothes? The new clothes are good, and the ones that I bought Zuzu with a smile must be very good! ”
Zuzu is old, he still speaks very neatly, and his thinking is very clear. But the wrinkles on her face told Ai Xiaoyu that Zuzu was really old, and he lost a lot of weight when he got older, and his exposed hands were like dry branches.
"Zuzu? Have you ever left something delicious for Xiaoxiao? ”
"Xiaoxiao is getting smarter, how did you guess? Zuzu left you melon seeds, peanuts, and soft candy? ”
"Zuzu, you keep it for me every year, of course I can guess it."
Within two steps of arriving at Zuzu's house, she rummaged through boxes and cabinets, one bag in the east and one in the west, and in a short time, the table was full of snacks.
"Come, smile obediently, come and eat candy, it's delicious, I secretly hid it and left it for you!"
Zuzu talked about sweet candy, smiling with chrysanthemums on her face, she likes to eat gummies the most, and her teeth are basically falling out. The hard candy can't be chewed at all, only the gummies she can put in her mouth and smack it slowly. In her heart. What she likes should be the best and most precious.
The heart is sour. I don't know how Lu Dao should describe this feeling, but Ai Xiaoyu hasn't seen Zuzu for almost a decade or two. When she came back from her rebirth last year, Zuzu had been away from home, and I heard that she had gone to her relatives, and it was her sister's house. She can't remember this relative now, after Zuzu passed away, why didn't the Ai family move around with Zuzu's family.
"It's delicious, it's delicious." Ai Xiaoyu, who doesn't like to eat gummies, feels that the gummies in her mouth should be the best candy in the world at this time.
"Delicious, right? Eat slowly. I've got a dozen of them. I'll peel melon seeds for you, I remember Xiaoxiao likes the melon seeds peeled by my ancestors the most. ”
"Isn't it, a handful of melon kernels is really good to eat!"
"You kid, it's still this habit, you like to eat all the melon kernels!"
"Hehe, I can't break this habit. By the way, Zuzu, I have a pill for dry mouth here. I see you've been drinking water, so why don't you eat this! ”
Ai Xiaoyu took out a jade bottle from her schoolbag, poured out a longevity pill, and handed it to Zuzu. Let her swallow this precious elixir as an ordinary little pill.
"What kind of pill is this, it smells so good! There is no bitterness at all, and I really don't feel thirsty after eating it. It's a great medicine. How do I feel so much better after taking this pill? Smile, isn't that precious? But I'm going to put the rest away. Don't just take it out and give it to others! ”
The experienced ancestor seemed to guess that the pill her great-granddaughter gave her was not an ordinary pill. Very carefully instructed his great-granddaughter.
"Zuzu, you are so smart, I will live a long life after taking the pill! I'll tell you a secret secret, I'm worshipping an old doctor as my master now, and this pill was given to me by him, don't tell anyone else, just treat it as a little secret between the two of us, okay, Zuzu? ”
"This smart bastard, just now he lied to Zuzu and said that it cured his thirst, really, such a precious pill, you shouldn't give it to me! I'm old, and I've lived long enough, and one day I went, it was a happy event, and now I'm wasting such a precious pill in vain, ouch, you're really ......"
As Zuzu spoke, tears fell, she didn't love this great-granddaughter in vain, she didn't expect that she would take such a precious pill to her old immortal. She knew very well in her heart that the people in her family were very puzzled by her most loving smile.
In fact, she is atoning for the sins of the eldest son who created sin, but she didn't teach this son well! Unexpectedly, her great-granddaughter, whom she loved with the psychology of atonement, gave her such a big surprise. She is not a person who believes words easily, her own physical condition, she knows best, she took the longevity pill, she really felt that this was a elixir, and she would be able to live longer because of some pills.
In the dining room, after eating, a group of people sat around and chatted, and Ai Wanqiao also knew that Ai Wanlin rejected his shares. Actually, he had already guessed the result, no one was a fool, they had enough funds to run the company, and his tens of thousands of yuan, now this fourth brother can't look down on it.
He heard Second Brother Cao say that the clothing company has only been open for a few months, and the cost of investment is about to be returned, and it has earned more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan in just a few months, which is completely profitable!
It's useless for him to be greedy, he is a smart person, although he can't buy shares, but to work in such a promising company, Second Brother Cao and Ai Wanlin are his brothers, he can't suffer losses, maybe it won't be long before he can mix with the management personnel, but he heard Second Brother Cao say that the management personnel of the clothing company are highly paid.
"Dad, now we are still from Zhulin Village, but we don't even have a house, I want to go to the village chief and secretary in the afternoon, and ask them if they can give us another batch of homesteads, we can simply build a house, and we can't always trouble you or others for the New Year or something in the future!"
Ai Dad heard that his house was occupied in the morning, and he was still very heartbroken, his parents now don't even want face, he was hurt by both of them unconscious, numb.
At this time, I ate the home-cooked meals made by my grandmother, although the taste was not as good as my wife, but there was a breath of hometown water, and my hometown was there, and my heart slowly warmed up, and I also remembered that there was no house in his family, and he could also solve the conditions proposed by his wife.
Ai Long felt that what Ai Dad said was very reasonable, and then said: "What you said in Wanlin is also reasonable, otherwise, in the afternoon, Wanqiao and I will accompany you to find the village chief and secretary and ask about the situation." ”
"Then we'll have to trouble my dad and Wanqiao again, but fortunately, we also brought back cigarettes and alcohol, and it was just right to come in handy in the afternoon."
Ai Wanqiao said enviously: "Fourth brother, you are really knowledgeable, bring cigarettes and alcohol to beg for help, it seems that you are really capable now!" It seems that I will have to go out for a walk in the future, and I will have a long experience, and stay in the countryside, there is no way out! ”
"Wanqiao, you should take advantage of your youth, go out of Lu to walk more, take a look more, when I just came out of Lu to do business, I was worse than you, but I made a lot of jokes, and now I have exercised it."
As soon as he said go, Ai Xiaoyu also followed the three adults and walked for about 20 minutes before coming to the house of Ai Quan, the head of Zhulin Village. Ai Quan and Ai Dad are of the same generation, older than Ai Dad, he is a relative of the Ai family, he is a good person, and the people in the village are very convinced of him.
Ai Long shouted from afar: "Ai Quan, don't you have it at home?" ”
"Yes. It's Uncle Ai, and Wanlin, Brother Wanqiao, who are you? ”
"Brother Quan, my father and Wanqiao are with me. Come, this is the cigarette and alcohol I brought back from Jiangjin, you can take it. ”
"Wanlin, this is all good cigarettes and wine! Quick, all of you, come in and sit down. Uncle Ai, sit down. Wanlin, you're a big deal, do you have something to ask me to do? ”
"Brother Quan is smart, you also know the situation in my family, right? I separated from my family last year, so I left Zhulin Village and went to Jiangjin, and I rushed back for the New Year today, only to realize that I am now a homeless person, no, I can only come to you. ”
"Alas, your family's affairs are really hard to say, your father is not taboo, no one in the family has a way to take him, play tricks, no one can resist it! What are you going to do now? You tell me about it, and I'll refer to it. ”
"I just want to approve a piece of land in the village and build a few houses again, although I will stay in Jiangjin in the future, but for the New Year's holiday, I must go back to Zhulin Village, how can I do it without my own house!"
"Grant land? I can't be the master of this alone, or I'll call the secretary next door to ask? ”
"That's too troublesome, Brother Quan, this thing is done, I must thank you and the secretary well."
"Between brothers, it's so polite!"
"Okay, I'm not polite to you, I have the opportunity for you to go to Jiangjin to have fun in the future, I bought a house over there, if my brother doesn't have to come back for the New Year to go to the grave, maybe he won't come back."
Ai Long heard Ai Dad say this on the side, and hurriedly scolded: "You kid, how do you talk, you bought a house outside, won't you really forget your ancestors?" After all, your Ai Wanlin's surname is Ai, and the roots are in Zhulin Village, and you won't come back for the New Year, but it's not like words! ”
"Dad, I'm just talking, won't I come back this year? I have feelings for Zhulin Village, and wherever I go, I will never forget that I am from here. ”
As soon as Ai Dad's side finished speaking, Feng Yong, the village secretary, also came in, he was in his fifties and sixties, he was a cheerful temper, and he was very popular.
"It turned out that Wanlin was back. Ai Quan, what is there to discuss with me? ”
Ai Quan said: "Uncle Feng, it's that Wanlin wants to approve a piece of land in the village and rebuild a house, I'm not alone and can't make the decision, so I can only call you, the old secretary, to discuss it." ”
Feng Tong answered: "Alas, when it comes to this, we all understand that it is best for Wan Lin to plan like this, otherwise, we will have to go to your house often to adjust the problem and solve the dispute, and it is better to stay away from that old man." (To be continued......)
