After dinner, I called Cheng Xiaohu, who was quite noisy, as if in a particularly noisy environment.

After I asked him to go to a quieter place, I said to him: "Cheng Lu said that he wanted to come to the city, do you know? ”

"Yes, she told me." Cheng Xiaohu seemed to be having a good time, so much so that the tone of his voice was particularly excited.

"What do you think? She doesn't understand anything, what are you telling her to do in the city? ”

"I didn't call her! She took the initiative to say that she wanted to come, and I think it's good, you can't be in that poor mountain village for the rest of your life, right? ”

I sighed heavily and said, "I said Xiaohu, now our village is not like before, and there will be many opportunities to make money in the future...... I think Cheng Lu should learn a little more now, she is still very young. ”

"Then you tell her, what you say is more effective than mine."

Cheng Xiaohu seemed to be very busy, and hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, I'm still busy here, you can discuss it with her, anyway, you will live with her in the future." ”

Cheng Xiaohu hung up the phone after speaking, I sighed, but I was helpless.

After smoking a cigarette, I called Anlan again.

In fact, I didn't even think about how to contact her, but now for Cheng Lu's sake, I can only ask her for help.

After a while, the phone was connected.

"Busy?" I asked her first.

"I'm not busy right now, what's wrong?"

"That ......," I hesitated for a moment, before I said, "I've received news from here, the city has decided to build a highway, thanks to your help!" ”

"I'm also doing this to build a winery with you, and I'll come to you again in a few days to make sure I invest in the winery."

"All right," I said to her after a pause, "and there's one more thing I'd like to ask you for." ”

"You say."

"My sister is Cheng Lu, she wants to go to the city, you can help receive her when the time comes, and if you can, help her find an adult training school, she is still young now, she should learn more knowledge."

After An Lan answered, he asked me again, "When will she come?" ”

"Tomorrow, I'll take her on the plane, and then I'll tell you her flight information, and I'll trouble you to pick her up at the airport."

"Okay, no problem."

"Well, thanks."

After ending the call with An Lan, I came to the door of Cheng Lu's room again.

I knocked on the door and shouted to her, "Lulu, can I come in now?" ”

"Yes, you can."

I pushed open the door and walked in, and saw that she was packing her bags, as if she had already decided to leave.

I stood at the door and looked at her and said, "Lulu, are you really thinking about going to the city?" ”

"I've thought about it! Brother Dashan, don't you want me to go? She asked as she turned to me as she cleaned up.

I shook my head and said, "I thought about it for a while, it's better for you to go to the city, just let you go and learn more knowledge, I have already arranged it for you, I will send you to the airport tomorrow, and someone will pick you up at that time." ”

"Well," she nodded, and then said with a hint of reluctance, "Brother Dashan, I'm actually quite reluctant." ”

"Don't you want to be at home?"

She shook her head and said, "I always thought I would be where you were, but now that I have figured it out, like you said, I want to make myself better, so I must go to the city, I want to learn more." ”

I smiled with relief and said, "That's right for you to think so, you should be in school at your age." ”

"It's just that I'm sad again."

"Why are you sad again?"

"When I'm gone, there's no one to cook for you." She pursed her lips after speaking, as if she was really sad.

I smiled and said, "What's this, it's not like you can't do it yourself, I'm such a big person, are you still starving me to death?" ”

She pursed her mouth, still looking sad, and said, "Brother Dashan, you have to take good care of yourself when I'm gone!" No matter how busy you are, eat on time and don't get tired. ”

"I know, you are the same, you have to be obedient when you go to the city, study hard and learn knowledge, I hope that our Lulu can become a very good person in the future."

Cheng Lu smiled and nodded heavily: "I will, for the sake of Brother Dashan, I must become a better version of myself." ”

I sneered, "Not for me, for yourself." ”

"No, I'm just going to change for you, I know that Brother Dashan you like to be like An Lan, so I want to be as good as her in the future."

I suddenly didn't know what to say, don't look at Cheng Lu is still young, but a woman's comparison heart is really strong.

Of course, I didn't have anything to say, so I just smiled faintly and said to her: "Then come on!" ”

"I will, Brother Dashan, just watch it!"

I still remember the look in Cheng Lu's eyes when she looked at me with that confident and unwavering look, as if she had already determined that she would definitely break out of the world.

But as far as I'm concerned, I can already see what she's going to look like.

It's not a blow to her, but that's what it is.

But I still want to give her some hope, there should be a glimmer of hope in each of us, otherwise life is really only despair.

……

Early the next morning, I went out with Cheng Lu carrying a large bag and a small bag.

I dropped her all the way to the city airport, and I bought her ticket last night, and after taking her to the airport building, I helped her get her boarding pass and took her all the way to the security checkpoint.

I said to her, "After the security check, you follow the information on the boarding pass to find the boarding gate, and if you can't find it, ask someone." Remember not to be late, this is not a county bus, it won't wait for anyone. ”

"Okay, Brother Dashan, then I'll go, I will definitely become excellent, you have to wait for me."

I nodded, and watched her go through the security checkpoint.

It wasn't until she passed the security check that I sent the information about the flight she was taking to Anlan.

At that moment, I didn't know if it was right or wrong to send her to the city, but she should have a broader world in her life, not stay in the countryside all the time.

After receiving Anlan's reply to me, I left the airport alone, and then went to visit Professor Bai by the way.

On the way back to the county, I received a message from An Lan, she told me that she had received Cheng Lu, and told me that she would take good care of her.

Now Cheng Xiaohu and Cheng Lu have gone to the city, but I am still in the village, because the work here still needs me, even if I know my identity now, I can't leave now.

When I got back to the village, it was already night, and I simply ate a bite to eat and went to sleep.

I was busy with the second batch of grapes and the development of tourism in the town for the next few days.

After the last Xiaoqi and their publicity, the reputation of our Portuguese Garden Town has really been played, and now there are already people coming here one after another.

Shops and restaurants have also been opened in various villages, especially the farmhouse of Zhang Chunlan's eldest sister is very popular.

No, Xiaohu didn't come back to take over the inn, and now I'm temporarily managing it, ready to let Jiang Tao find someone to manage it.

Seeing that the town of Portuguese Garden is getting better day by day, some villagers in the town who used to go out to work also rushed back after learning the news.

A week later, Anlan came with a contract to invest in the winery.
