"Why didn't you see your father? Okay? ”

"Upstairs, people are old, sick, and it's not convenient to walk."

"I still have something I want to ask him about the old man's house today, I am going to renovate the house at home, your father's condition, can you still see the life?"

"Look, occasionally someone comes to the house and asks him to show him a day or something, repairing the house is not a trivial matter, you just came back, but there is pressure."

"I know this, there is pressure, and it's really not small, but you see, the new houses around, the broken house of my house is really not visible, yesterday relatives and friends also came, I mentioned this matter, everyone also considered it, can help first, the house should not be a big problem."

"That's right, you have to think about it, this thing can be done, it's just the beginning of spring, it's just the right time to repair now, go, I'll take you up and ask you."

"If I don't know the day after tomorrow, I'll come again, I'm a little embarrassed to be empty-handed today."

"Oh, my big brother, you will see the outside when you say this, let's go, here you are."

The two of them went up the stairs to the second floor, and Lao Yin and Yang sat cross-legged on the kang, which looked much better than Lao Wan's father.

Wang Defa has a lot of respect for Lao Yin and Yang, some things, believe it or not, but they are real. He now remembered everything he had said to Lao Yin and Yang, and he felt that this old man was a true god. When he asked the old yin and yang feng shui for the sake of robbing the tomb, he told Wang Defa that he must not do the things of cutting off children and grandchildren and losing ancestors, which is really in the same sentence. Wang Defa successfully avoided the matter of cutting off children and grandchildren, but this is a matter of ancestors, and he has done it in several generations of the Wang family.

"Dad, the old accountant in the past, my eldest brother Defa has come to see you."

"Oh, you're back?" Don't look at people who are old, but they are still deaf and energetic. Maybe it has something to do with the profession of yin and yang, everyone thinks that yin and yang can read through the past, see through the two worlds, and gain insight into the future.

"I'm back, I came back yesterday." Wang Defa didn't know how to reply, so he didn't say much.

"It's good to be back, make a good living, don't do bad things, and look forward."

"You're right, you're right. Uncle, I came today, I have something to ask you, I want to renovate the house at home, can you see if you can help me see the day, when can the ground be started. ”

"Dad, you have to give my benefactor a good look at it."

"Are you in a hurry? Do you want to be close, or do you want to be slow? ”

"It's the closest, the closer the better, you see which day is appropriate."

"This month, then sixteen, sixteen is a good day, start construction, there should be no less links, and don't move where you can't move."

"Okay, okay, this is for sure, it must be according to your arrangement, the sixteenth, there are still more than ten days, if you prepare, there is enough time. I've troubled your old man, thank you! ”

"I'll leave, I'll come back to see you when I have time."

Wang Defa and the second child came down from upstairs, and when they left, the second child took out 2,000 yuan from his house and gave it to Wang Defa: "Brother, you want to repair the house, and it costs a lot, and I don't have much money. ”

This time Wang Defa was stunned, and then thinking about the frozen air when his neighbor heard that he was going to borrow money last night, Wang Defa felt that this person was really different.

"Brother, thank you, what do you want me to say, to be honest, I'm really still a little nervous, since you gave the money, I'll take it, and when I turn the day away, I'll pay you back early."

"What are you polite to me, you can just use it, and if you have any help, just say it."

Coming out of the old Yinyang's house, Wang Defa carried the 2,000 yuan borrowed by the second child in his pocket, and walked back all the way. There are more people coming and going in the alley, and the news of Wang Defa's release from prison is estimated to have spread to everyone, and everyone is not so curious. But what exactly is discussed in private, who knows, the mouths are all on their faces, and no one cares about anyone.

When Wang Defa meets people he knows, he also tries his best to pretend to be like a person who has not been stained for five years. He didn't wander much on the road, so he walked home.

If the ground breaks on the 16th, the time is not too much, so Wang Defa has to hurry up and implement the money, and then find the construction team. In recent years, the town has been building civil engineering, and many people have seen opportunities to make money, and there are many engineering teams organized, so this problem is not big. Wang Defa is worried about this money, he can vaguely feel from yesterday's situation, it is estimated that there are not many people who can borrow from relatives and friends, and this cannot force others, but Wang Defa wants to ask one by one, even if he gives some thin noodles, he can borrow some of it.

"I'm back, I've been in Lao Wanjia for so long, and where have I gotten around?" As soon as Wang Defa entered the door, he happened to be seen by the woman who came out of the kitchen.

"I came out of the old family's house and went to the second child's house. By the way, he asked from his father about the day of the groundbreaking. ”

"You person, there is no room for negotiation when you think of one thing, saying that the wind is the rain, are we in such a hurry to repair the house?"

"You have to repair it early and repair it late, it's better to repair it early, in case the price of materials and labor rises in the future, then you don't have to spend a lot of money."

"You watch the two babies first, and Jackie Chan will come back from school in a while, and we will eat when she comes back."

"Okay."

Wang Defa went to the house where her mother lived, Wang Laidi took his younger brother to play on grandma's kang, the two dolls are not naughty, not so much grandma looking at her grandson, but two babies looking at their grandmother, Wang Defa's old mother's state, among the two old people he has seen today, is not ideal, better than Lao Wan's father. This is one of the reasons why Wang Defa is in a hurry to repair the house, he wants the old lady to open his eyes to see the changes in this family, if one day, when the old lady also goes with his father, he will have an explanation.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the old and the young together, Wang Defa returned to his house. On the wall facing the entrance door, there is a painting of the central hall. He found an awl, walked to the nave and lifted it, and a layer of ash rose up. Wang Defa approached the earthen wall behind the middle hall, wiped the soil on it with his hands, found a trace that obviously seemed to have been repaired later, pried open a small piece with an awl, and pulled out three yellowed sheets from it, which was the money that Wang Defa saved when he was an accountant, and he couldn't remember how these scattered money were saved by him, he only knew that the money he saved was not his salary as an accountant.

Wang Defa opened the door curtain and window to let it through, sat on the stool and opened the three lists and looked at them, the names and numbers on them were still clearly visible, that is, five years have passed, and whether the money on this list can be taken out makes him a little worried.

At twelve o'clock at noon, Wang Chenglong stepped back on the spot. She saw Wang Defa in the house, threw her schoolbag on the kang and went to the kitchen to help her mother. Since he started school, Wang Chenglong has helped his mother in the kitchen first thing he gets home at noon every day, or watched his sister and younger brother, and when he comes back in the evening, he starts to do his homework after feeding the chickens in the backyard. It's been more than a semester, and from Monday to Friday, she has such a regular arrangement. In Wang Chenglong's eyes, she is still Wang Defa's existence like air.

Getting along with children will take a long time, so Wang Defa has lost his anxiety about children in the past few days, and now what he wants to know most is whether the three notes in his hand can be turned into money.

After a while, Wang Chenglong and her mother began to serve food from the kitchen to the main house, Wang Defa also went to bring the meal together when he saw this, Wang Laidi and Wang Guisheng had already come, the old lady did not eat much, every time she cooked, Wang Defa would cook for a while and put it on the small table on the kang for her alone. Now I can still eat by myself, and this state is estimated to be in a few years, and it will be a problem to eat by myself.

"I'm going out after dinner, and the credit union is still in the same place, right?"

"Here, the one who took the tricycle in the county seat has been there. Why are you going? ”

"I'll see if I can get the money out of these lists."

The woman put down the chopsticks in her hand and looked at the deposit slip issued by Wang Defa on the table, which he had never seen before.

"Where did this come from? So much? The woman asked in surprise.

"You don't care about this, it's our money anyway, don't worry."

"You just came out yesterday, if the source of this money is unknown, you should hurry up where it came from and send it, don't mess with this kind of right and wrong."

"Don't worry, this is my money, nothing is a problem. I'll take a look after eating, and if I can take it out, then the bulk of our repair house will basically be gone. ”

"Do you want me to come with you? There are still quite a lot of changes in the alley, so don't turn around and lose sight. ”

"No, you're busy with yours, if you change again, the general appearance is still the same as before, as long as the credit union is there, I can find it."

"Or after eating, you follow Jackie Chan and go to school and pass by the credit union." The woman wanted the father and daughter to have more contact.

When Wang Chenglong heard this, he took his dishes and chopsticks, went out and left, leaving a sentence: "Don't follow me." ”

It was originally a good thing, so that the woman could build a bridge, and the meal broke up unhappily. Wang Defa finished eating the rice in his bowl, took out his ID card from his locked cabinet, packed it, folded the three sheets neatly, and walked to the credit union without saying a word.
