In the hot summer, Zhang Eryi, who was thousands of miles away, received a call from Zhang Guoqing and his son, and learned that his little nephew was studying abroad, and he couldn't close his mouth with joy.

As soon as I arrived at the tube building of the unit, I said hello to Lin Juhua, and I didn't even bother to eat a bite of dinner, so I hurried to the county seat overnight.

As soon as Zhang's father and mother heard the news, they were surprised and happy.

It was their grandson, who was only 20 years old, who went abroad alone, can he do it? So far away, when will it arrive?

Happily, they naturally understand what a great honor it is to study abroad, and they don't look at the envious eyes of anyone in the provincial capital who says they want to go abroad......

The way of the world has really changed.

If this had been left aside in previous years, whoever had overseas relations would not have suffered.

"Dad, Xiao Wu was going to come back on May 1st, I heard that the child still needs to prepare some materials, and he won't be able to come back for a while, he wants you to stay with my mother for a while."

Father Zhang nodded again and again, "That's right, you can't delay the child's big event, it's better for me to go with your mother, just to take a look at your brother's family." ”

"Daddy, I'll pack my things?"

Dad Zhang waved his hand, "Don't worry, you get some food for the child first, and this time you will definitely run back as soon as you get off work." Let's stay here tonight, and we'll leave tomorrow morning. ”

When Zhang's mother heard him, she patted her clothes with both hands, and immediately walked out, "You two stay here, I'll be fine soon." ”

"Mother, just order it." Zhang Lao Er pulled his father to sit on the kang, "Dad, are you happy?" This is the first part of our family, no, the first part of the county. ”

"Hahaha...... Dad Zhang patted his thigh, "Can Ming'er's car catch up?" Your mother and I have to rush over early and stay with the child for a few more days. ”

"The day after tomorrow, Xiao Wu has already said hello, and you don't have to sit all the way to the capital with my mother." Zhang Lao Er thought for a while, "Do you want to let Chrysanthemum accompany you?" ”

"No, you don't! The old man took that bus, and the comrades inside all knew him. Father Zhang paused and continued, "How did your daughter-in-law learn how to cook that cooking?" ”

Zhang Lao Er smiled when he heard this, "It's a bit of a look, I love his mother to cook at home during the recent holidays." Mai Qing is also clamoring to study, always saying that she can't study by herself, I just want to follow her? ”

Speaking of this little granddaughter, Dad Zhang also has a headache, where is it not good to study, the child just wants to be a second-class dealer and make money as soon as possible.

Otherwise, three of the four children in the second family can be admitted to college, why can't she?

"You have to pressure her to study, you see that Shi can go to work in the Petroleum Bureau after graduation, and Mai Sui is also in the Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, what a good thing! Let her go to college, she really can't get into college, but she has a high school graduate, and it's easy to find a unit. ”

"Okay."

"You and Xiao Wu, I'm not worried."

Zhang Laoer's eyes flashed when he heard this, and then he smiled, "Dad, my eldest brother doesn't need you to worry, he can suppress that one now, Xizi and their work is also going well, there is nothing that makes you feel uneasy." ”

"I'm not worried about him, he's in his fifties, what are you worried about him doing?"

Zhang Lao Er smiled noncommittally and changed the topic, "I hurriedly ran back, and I haven't had time to say a word to my eldest brother, but I have already asked Chrysanthemum to go to his house." ”

"That's fine!" Dad Zhang subconsciously picked up the long pipe and snorted, "Do you want to sell your yard?" ”

The yard mentioned by Zhang's father refers to the yard of Zhang's second county, because of the good location, there have been many people who have come to him recently to inquire about the news.

"What do you say?"

"If you want me to say, sell it! Anyway, there is a yard in the village, and the tube building that lives in the unit in the provincial city is too small, so it is better to scrape together some money and buy a yard for Xiaotao. ”

"Dad, the courtyard in the capital has risen again."

"So let's prepare early. In the future, Xiao Tao will be like a stone when he graduates, and he will also work in the capital, you buy it for his brother, and you have to have a bowl of water. ”

Zhang Lao Er looked outside and lowered his voice, "Dad, I just don't sell here, the money is enough." ”

Father Zhang narrowed his old eyes clearly, and also lowered his voice and asked him quietly, "Did you give you all the money that this kid earned?" ”

"Yes. He made a lot of money on May Day, and he gave it all to me. ”

"His daughter-in-law didn't say it?"

"No, that girl looks big, it's a good one. She said that May Day was for my sake, so the money had to be handed over. ”

"Hehe...... Daddy Zhang muttered with appreciation, "This girl ......"

"I'm not going to let them suffer either. I also told Xiao Tao that his eldest brother has recently helped him find a yard. I didn't hide from him how much money he had in the family. ”

"Mai Sui didn't treat his brothers and sisters badly, remember to mention it."

"Understood. I also said that in the future, her dowry will have to be given in the thick of the thick. ”

"What about the male classmate I talked about last time? I graduated this year, so if I succeed, I have to hurry up. ”

"I was going to tell you about it. The big girl plans to take it home for me to see first, but I asked them about the stones, and they all said that the boy is good. ”

"That's good." After Dad Zhang finished talking about this, he left it behind and diverted the topic.

Zhang Lao Er quietly listened to his father talk about the trivial things in the village and the county, and replied with a sentence or two from time to time. And he somewhat understood in his heart that the old man was lonely.

When he said that he was tired, Zhang Lao Er persuaded again, "Dad, you and my mother should go to the provincial capital, I am very busy with work now, and sometimes I can't come back to see you on weekends." ”

"Not used to it."

"Why don't you get used to it? The location of the yard bought by Xiao Wu is good, close to Uncle Dashan's house, and Uncle Chen's house is not five minutes away. ”

Dad Zhang hesitated, but still shook his head, "No, if I want to go to the village here, I can go to the village, and it is convenient for you to go there, if you stay in the provincial capital, your uncle will have to wait for the next day if he has something to find me." ”

"What are they looking for you? Miss old buddy, can't you let them go and live there for a few days? ”

"You don't understand."

There is another reason why Dad Zhang can't say that he won't leave, his family is in the basement, and when he goes to the provincial capital, those old buddies are all working, what is the excitement for him?

"Okay, we'll talk about that later." Zhang Lao Er sighed helplessly, "Then how long will you stay this time?" I see what Xiao Wu means, he and Jiaojiao don't plan to let you come back. ”

Dad Zhang suddenly laughed, "Don't listen to him, I'll stay over there with your mother, what should I do in my hometown?" He wants to play a play, just ignore him.

I also want to hire someone to take care of me and your mother after these letters. It's not like we can't do it, what kind of aunt are you please? I think this stupid boy should have a few more money in his hands and start making a fuss. ”

"I think it's good to invite someone, it's cold, we're not by your side, what if my mother goes out and falls? Now our three brothers are not short of this money, and it is only a few dollars to divide it? ”

Father Zhang was stunned when he heard this, "Don't follow the blind to join in the fun." ”
