Chapter 315: Returning home
Whether it's at Paris Fashion Week or in the countryside of Henan, beautiful women will be the focus of attention. Everyone has the right to pursue beauty, and beauty is the stunner in every man's dream.
Xia Wanyu's appearance undoubtedly surprised the group of village laborers, and judging from their cramped aesthetics, they thought Xia Wanyu was like a movie star.
Although the Bentley's logo made them wonder if it was worth the Humvee that occasionally came around the village, they recognized that the woman who stepped out of the car was enough to change the fate of their entire village. I thought it would be a very mysterious thing to bring Xia Wanyu back, but I didn't expect Xia Wanyu's appearance to cause such a big sensation, the men all squatted in the distance, staring at her with wide eyes, as for me and Zhang Ling, they automatically ignored her.
But after thinking about it, in fact, I also understand that Xia Wanyu's beauty is charming and charming, with a little demon, this temperament makes her like a fox spirit. Wherever you go, you'll be able to attract enough attention.
I ignored them, and in fact I rarely went back to the village since I went to school in Shanghai. Those neighbors who used to be can't even name them, let alone talk to them. Xia Wanyu stood on the bridge at the head of the village, looked around, and then looked at the children in the distance in outdated clothes, and they all looked at the beautiful woman from the city with wide eyes.
When I first took Sun Xiaoqing home, it didn't cause such a sensation. But this time with Xia Wanyu, it was a little different. Sun Xiaoqing is very close to the people, and she looks like a girl next door when she is in my hometown, while Xia Wanyu is so noble that they don't dare to say a word to her.
Xia Wanyu looked at the small mountain village in the mountain col, and then at the mountains around the village that had been emptied. He turned to me and said, "With your achievements, you can indeed stand out in this village." Every place has a central character, and if you want to be it, you are the king here. ”
It's a strange thing that I didn't follow her words on. Xia Wanyu hugged Xia, and Zhang Ling and I walked towards my house in the south of the village with things and things. After the last flood in my hometown, the government originally said that it would build new rural villas, but the matter has been delayed for several years, and there has been no news. In the end, the disaster compensation was distributed, and the villagers got some money to build their houses.
In any case, this is a land that nurtures a person. Despite the poverty, the villagers are reluctant to leave, especially the elderly. My house is not the best in the village, and I give my parents a part of the living expenses every month. The money was enough for them to build a country house, the European-style kind. But when I got home, I found that there were only two bungalows, not even a second floor.
My parents were standing in front of the door, and when they saw the two of us, my mother hurried up and my father hurriedly carried my things over. The mother said, "Why didn't you tell us when you came back, did you come back by car or by plane?" ”
I replied, "I drove back." ”
"That's so tiring, don't do that next time." My mother has been back and forth to Shanghai several times, and she knows that she is not tired by plane. I didn't say anything, because I was tired by this time. When he returned home, he found that his mother had already prepared the meal. It's all some home-cooked food, shredded potatoes, stir-fried pork, two bottles of Moutai that I brought back to my father before, and a pot of rice.
I yawned and said, "Mom, I want to eat the noodles you made." ”
My mother immediately said, "Mom will do it for you." ”
Xia Wanyu gave me a look and said, "Okay, I'll eat noodles another day, you haven't slept for so long, just eat some rice and sleep." ”
Xia Wanyu was considerate of my mother, and I couldn't say anything, so I had to sit down and eat a bowl of rice, and Zhang Ling and Xia Wanyu also ate a lot. After eating, Zhang Ling and I went to sleep, Xia Wanyu didn't seem to be tired, she was talking to my parents before I went to bed. When I woke up, it was four o'clock in the morning, and I found my father lying next to me, and it was supposed that Zhang Ling and Xia Wanyu were sleeping in the same bed with my mother.
Just two houses, and you can only sleep like this.
In fact, I don't understand why my parents are going back to their hometown to live, it's dirty, messy and poor, and no doctor comes to see me when I'm sick. I had bought a house for my parents in the city, but my parents built these two bungalows here after the compensation money was paid in my hometown.
My father, who was not sleeping soundly, saw that I was awake and said to me, "There is food in the stove, remember to eat it." ”
I put on my clothes and got out of bed, and went to the stove to find the rest of the rice in the pot. It is wrapped dumplings and stuffed with leeks and eggs. I ordered a bowl of dumplings, more than forty of them. After eating, it was only five o'clock in the morning. The sky was a little dark, I was idle, and I didn't want to disturb my parents and Xia Wanyu to sleep, so I went out and walked around the village. The village is different from the last time I came back, some of the houses are still small three-story houses, and they look very imposing. Some people live in a small tiled house, which is very contrasting.
But when you think about it, compared to the skyscrapers of Shanghai and the dirty mess of the suburbs, the contrast between a small village is still not so strong. Before I knew it, I walked to a high mountain behind my house, and it was not very high, after all, it was a hilly area, and the ground was undulating. At this time, the sun was shining a fiery red sun in the sky, and I sat here looking at the sunrise that looked a little decent, and I was a little smiling.
More than twenty years ago, more than twenty years later. From the countryside to the city, how many times have I dreamed back at midnight, I am struggling and suffering. And how many times have I been on the move?
My current success is relative to the village. But what about Shanghai, what kind of thing am I?
Before I knew it, the sun rose, and I breathed a sigh of relief and went down the mountain to go home. When she went back, Xia Wanyu had already woken up, and she was washing her face. When he saw me come back, he said, "Your bed at home is quite comfortable." ”
……
As Xia Wanyu expected, my parents did not say anything about the luxury goods she bought for my parents. My mother even put away the Victorian dress she had bought, apparently ready to wear. As for the clothes and health supplements, my father didn't say anything. As Xia Wanyu said, they said that they didn't let me buy it, and they were still afraid that I would spend money, but when I really came back, my parents were naturally happy and complained.
Zhang Ling yawned and came out, crooked her neck, and said with some distress: "Aunt Xia, I fell into a stiff neck." ”
Xia Wanyu went over to help Zhang Ling look, Zhang Ling said with a sad face: "This morning, my neck hurts badly, what should I do, it's so uncomfortable." ”
I don't know what to do, Xia Wanyu is helping Zhang Ling to see. At this time, my mother came out of the room and heard Zhang Ling say that she had fallen into her neck, she asked Zhang Ling to sit down, and then helped Zhang Ling pinch her neck. Mother's technique was very rough, and Zhang Ling screamed back and forth in pain. But the mother said, "You can bear with it, and it will hurt for a while." ”
Zhang Ling burst into tears and cried out in pain. But after my mother pinched her, she moved her neck and said, "Oh, it doesn't hurt, Auntie, you are too capable." ”
My mother said, "Hao Ren's father often falls on his neck, so I often help him with his neck in this way." ”
I looked at my mother, how they had never told me about this, and if I had known about it, I would have brought them a cervical orthodontic device.
In the morning, it was rice porridge cooked by my mother, just after eating. Lin Guoqing got off the car, walked straight into the village brigade, and startled the village party secretary who was eating in the village brigade, he quickly dropped his job, stood up and snorted and said, "Isn't this Mayor Lin?" ”
The secretary Lin Guoqing was carrying with him said expressionlessly: "Take Mayor Lin to Hao Ren's house." ”
"Hao Ren? Which Hao Ren? It shouldn't be Lao Haotou's house. The village party secretary was a little surprised.
……
When he brought Lin Guoqing to my house, almost the whole village knew that Mayor Lu Dao had come to the village. And I came in a pickup truck, and Lin Guoqing's arrival was much more sensational than when I came back yesterday. Lin Guoqing is the mayor after all, if he relaxes his hands a little, then the life of the people will be better. Immediately, a group of people came to Lin Guoqing to complain about their grievances, such as the last flood compensation was not in place, and the tourist area that said that Hao Lu had not been built, and all other factors were mentioned.
I was shocked by Xia Wanyu, who was watching the play on the side, I came back yesterday and Lin Guoqing knew about it, so he rushed over early this morning. I didn't expect to meet so many people complaining here. He's incompetent as the mayor. After finally solving the problems of these ordinary people, Lin Guoqing came to my house, and after sitting down, Lin Guoqing said to me with a smile: "Hao Ren, whether you can build a tourist area and a new countryside here this time depends on you." ”
Before I could speak, Lin Guoqing said: "You were originally going to build a tourist area and a new countryside here, but the money was invested by a company, after the last flood, people felt that there was no tourism prospect here, and the initial investment was huge, so they took the money and left, as a result, we have just carried out half of the land acquisition here into a delay, if I didn't transfer a sum of money from other places to solve the problem of post-disaster resettlement, I estimate that the villagers are a problem after the disaster." ”
Lin Guoqing sighed and said to me bluntly: "I won't go around the bend with you, I let you come back just to let you see the current situation in your hometown." ”
I'm a little miserable, I don't have any money. This Lin Guoqing, how can he really be a moth.
However, Lin Guoqing also knew that he turned his head to look at Xia Wanyu.
Xia Wanyu said lightly: "How much does it cost?" ”
Lin Guoqing pondered for a while and said: "The construction of new rural areas and tourist areas will cost about 100 million. As for other projects, another said. ”
In fact, I also know that the goal of Lin Guoqing is the money in Xia Wanyu's hand, and this kid has a bad stomach.
What I didn't expect was that after Lin Guoqing said the price, Xia Wanyu actually sighed.
Lin Guoqing looked at me in some surprise, and I also looked at Xia Wanyu.
I saw Xia Wanyu say helplessly: "I have prepared a billion for you." ”
