Wohutun is as quiet and serene as ever.

Not much has changed, just a little better than the street a few years ago, paved with a layer of black slag, barely smooth. However, in this remote and backward rural area, in the early years, the planning was insufficient, the houses and homesteads were randomly approved and approved, and some private buildings with insufficient supervision or even unmanaged buildings were built indiscriminately, so the streets naturally did not go straight and smooth, and they were twisted and turned, but they also appeared more simple.

The biggest difference between the village and previous years is that whenever you come to the village, you can no longer see groups of young and middle-aged people, squatting or standing at the entrance of the village and beside the road, squatting or standing and smoking and chatting.

Only a few elderly people bask under the wall and chat about the past.

There are also some children who are left behind at home and cared for by their grandparents and grandparents, running around the streets and playing wildly.

The black Range Rover driving through the crooked streets of the village will inevitably attract the attention of the elderly gathered at the head and end of the village, at every street corner, and the left-behind children running around to avoid and happily chase after them - with the rapid development of social economy, cities around the country have grown rapidly, with a huge siphon effect, the surplus labor force in the countryside has been introduced into the city. At the same time, some inflationary factors that inevitably arise from the rapid development of the country's economy, as well as the willingness of rural people to save money rather than consume after they are accustomed to a frugal and simple living situation...... and many other reasons, resulting in young adults in rural areas, except for big festivals, basically go out every year, and rarely come back.

Wen Shuo experienced the out-of-body fugue, life and death of Moon Shadow Mountain last year, and even a long time in the later period of life divided into two, I don't know whether it is life or death, one thought and two points, and then into the picture scroll and out of the picture scroll, there was a huge and qualitative change in his mood.

In terms of practice, he is more casual and not deliberate, but more enthusiastic about life and work, and diligent in all aspects of learning.

This year, in particular, he began to pay attention to current affairs.

Through the reporting of some news, and then refer to the current social situation, and on this basis, analyze and interpret the inner meaning of the news. Therefore, he knows the current situation of many backward villages, and he also thinks about the possibility of the development of these villages in the next few years.

In this regard, it is not that Wen Shuo is so compassionate and compassionate, but that he wants to find some new business opportunities from it.

Another reason is that since last year, he has received several suggestions and recommendations -- he can be a member of the committee, a deputy, and so on.

Fame and fortune, who doesn't like it?

Even if the mood has changed dramatically and qualitatively compared with the past, the fat man who has no interest in the pursuit of fame and fortune really can't calm down - if he doesn't pursue fame and fortune, what is the taste of this person's life? What kind of energy does he have to move forward?

Since you want to be a committee member or a representative, you must have a better understanding of current affairs, society, and especially the industry in which you are located.

In addition, there must be a little bit of words and deeds to ask for the people's lives.

It doesn't matter if you do it from the bottom of your heart, or if you get some other benefit for it, you must have it in words and deeds!

Unfortunately, the fat man did not see what kind of business opportunities would be in the countryside.

But it wasn't for nothing, at least, he realized that the foundation of the city's rapid and sustainable development lies in its growing population.

Without people, everything is empty talk.

The reason why large cities can develop comprehensively and sustainably, and benign development, is that the economic development under the guidance of policies will attract an increase in the foreign population, whether it is migrant workers, or small traders, or employees of companies, factories, and enterprises, etc., the population is larger, it will promote the flow of the underlying economy, the faster the flow speed, the more people can be retained, the economy is good, and the number of people will begin to increase, and what will people do if they stay? Buy a house, settle down, start a family, find a way to enroll children in school, and all kinds of consumption......

This is a virtuous socio-economic cycle.

Like what......

The fat man pondered, he entered the capital from the small Dongyun, studied in the capital, and did business, so that the relatives at home, as well as Zhan Chuanhai's family, Xu Congjun and Xu Fang women, all brought into the capital, and attracted Yanyun and so on, in the capital to do catering service people, students, training schools to cultivate talents, software companies to promote the development of Internet technology, and then schools, catering, software companies have to hire employees, everyone followed to make money together, eat, drink and live in the capital need to consume, and then buy a house...... It has made great contributions to the economic development and economic vitality of the capital.

It is no wonder that so many people suggest and recommend themselves to be committee members and deputies.

Excellent, outstanding, and has made significant contributions and achievements.

Range Rover stopped in front of Wen Tai's house, and after the complacent fat man got out of the car, he looked around at the current situation of the surrounding villages, and then put aside his distractions and stepped into the small courtyard.

Standing in the courtyard and shouting twice, only a slight answer came from the west side of the main house.

Wen Shuo knew that the second grandfather, Wen Tai, lived in that room.

There was no one else at home, Wen Shuo stepped into the hall, turned left and opened the curtain of the door in the west, and saw the second grandfather Wen Tai, who was old and sick in bed, was lying on the kang with his eyes half-open, looking at the door in high spirits.

When he saw the burly and tall Wen Shuo walking in, Wen Tai was obviously a little surprised, his eyes widened, and he immediately showed a look of surprise, and he was about to sit up: "It's Xiao Shuo here, hurry, sit down......"

Wen Shuo walked over quickly and helped Wen Tai sit up, and said with concern: "Second grandfather, are you not feeling well, why is there no one else at home?"

"I'm old, isn't that it, alas. Wen Tai smiled bitterly, with the help of Wen Shuo, he sat on his back against a stack of futons, his face was wrinkled together, showing a slight gratifying smile, and said: "Children and grandchildren all have their own families, your Uncle Shanliang and his family live in the same courtyard with me, and they usually take good care of them, and they went to work in the field today." ”

"Oh. Wen Shuo took out a thousand yuan from his pocket and stuffed it under the mattress at the head of the bed.

"Xiao Shuo, don't give money, you see, give ...... every time you come" Wen Tai hurriedly dissuaded, and was so busy that he coughed several times, but he couldn't stop Wen Shuo's movements after all.

Wen Shuo smiled and shook the old man's hand, and said, "You can keep it for you, and you can usually open your mouth less to ask me Uncle Shanliang for money, every family in the village has a tight life, and they are considerate of each other." Second grandfather, I came today to tell you something. ”

"Huh?" Wen Tai looked puzzled, "What's the matter?"

"This ......" Wen Shuo slowed down a little, and said: "Second grandfather, you also know, it has been fifteen years since my father died, and I am now, I have grown up and have my own career, and I should start a family in two years, my mother has worked hard to raise me alone for so many years, it is not easy, and now, she finally puts her mind at ease, and she has her own person of choice, and she is going to remarry." ”

Wen Tai was stunned, and then nodded: "Yes, it is not easy for the daughter-in-law of Shanqi, she has been widowed for so many years, alas, she should have found someone to marry, and she would not have worked so hard." ”

"My mother said, after all, she is a woman who married into the Wen family, and she has not remarried for so many years, and now that she is going to get married, she must always talk to the people of the Wen family, especially the elders, this is the etiquette that should be had. Wen Shuo sighed and said, "Tomorrow I will hold a wedding banquet in Dongyun Restaurant in our county, I thought I would come to talk to you, and then invite you to the wedding banquet, just be a representative of the Wen family, as for my Uncle Shanliang, there are ...... If you are the same generation as my father, you won't be invited, after all, it's not suitable, and as for the younger generation, you can't be invited, can you understand this?"

"Yes, yes, you're right. Wen Tai nodded and said, "You see, my body is not good, I really can't stand the toss, so I won't go, ah, as for the others, I'll go back and tell them, you can come, the etiquette is here, that's good." ”

"Okay, then you can rest all the time, seeing that you are very tired, I will not bother you. Wen Shuo smiled and said goodbye.

"Sit down a little longer, wait for your Uncle Shanliang and Aunt Shanliang to come back, and make you some lunch. Wen Tai hurriedly said.

"No, no, I have to go back to the county seat and be busy with tomorrow's wedding banquet. Wen Shuo helped the old man to lie down again, and said with concern: "You can relax, rest well, and take care of your body, and when my mother's wedding banquet is completed, we will try to take time to come and see you, if you don't have time, I will also entrust someone to bring a good doctor to come over to see you." ”

"Hey, don't bother, there's nothing wrong with it, it's just that you're older...... Wen Tai said quickly.

Wen Shuo gently comforted him again, and then turned to leave.

Driving out of Wohutun and driving on the country road where the wheat was first yellowing, Wen Shuo couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts - after his mother and Xu Congjun got married, he would only go back to Wohuthutun to give his father's grave in the future, and he would only go back to Wohuthutun when he went to the grave.

And what happened when the second grandfather Wen Tai died?

He and the Wen family in Crouching Tiger Tun, so many family members who are related by blood, how many family bonds can be left?

Actually, there is no deep family bond between him and Wen Tai.

In the past few years, he has just played a member of his own family, Wen Tai's cousin.

It is better to say that there is filial piety, but it is better to say that it is a kindness and a little return.

Before, Wen Shuo never thought of going back to Wohutun to greet his second grandfather Wen Tai and inform his mother of the news that he was going to remarry, because in his concept, his mother, who had been widowed for so many years and had not received any help and care from the Wen family, was now going to start a family again, and there was no need to tell the Wen family. But his mother insisted that he go to Crouching Tiger Tun, even if it was just to tell Wen Tai.

The reason is very simple, that is, you can't lose your courtesy.

In this regard, Wen Shuo of course obeyed his mother's orders, he didn't want his mother to have the slightest awkwardness in his heart after he restarted the family, and he didn't want his mother to bear any self-blame.

It was more than three o'clock in the afternoon.

After the lunch break, the old lady accompanied the old lady to the old house in the north of Liujiaying Village with Wen Shuo, Skullcap Zhi and Su Sheng.

Although it has been uninhabited for many years, Liu Maohe often thinks about arranging for someone to come over to clean up, but there is no sign of dilapidation.
