Chapter 235: Southbound
Xijun led Sun Wei to two days to deal with everything that needed to be done at Li Li's house, and on the morning of the third day, he led Li Li's parents and brothers to pick up Fusheng and Xinlan in a medium-sized van.
Fusheng and Xinlan were already ready and waiting at home. I heard the sound of the car and hurriedly walked out the door. As soon as everyone in the car saw it, they were ready to get out of the car to say hello. The Western Army was afraid of delaying time, so he hurriedly stopped everyone and didn't get out of the car, only he and Sun Wei came down. When Xinlan saw it, she had no choice but to open the car door to greet Li Li and her parents, and then turned around and followed a few people into the courtyard gate.
When he arrived at the hospital, Xinlan sent Fusheng to make tea. When the Western Army saw it, he hurriedly stopped: "Eldest sister, don't let my brother soak, there is no time to delay, you prepare first, I'll take a look at this courtyard and let's go." After speaking, he began to roughly measure back and forth with his steps. Sun Wei didn't know his intentions, and after listening to his words, he hurriedly asked Xinlan: "Mother, everything I explained to you is ready, we are about to leave, we have to hurry." ”
"When you're ready, I'll take out a bag and lock the door." Xinlan said, turned around, went back to the house, took out a bag containing her and Fusheng's belongings, locked the door with her backhand, checked it again, and then came back and waited for Xijun.
This work has been measured by the Western Army. Seeing that everyone was ready to wait for him, he beckoned everyone to go. So a few people came out, watched Xinlan lock the courtyard door, and then got into the car again. Sun Wei then ordered the driver to set off. As soon as the words fell, the driver, who had already been prepared, started the car casually, and as soon as he put it into gear, the car slowly moved. When they got up, Sun Wei introduced everyone to each other. Xinlan knew Li Li's father a long time ago because of Sun Wei's matter, so naturally there is no need to introduce it, plus everyone knows the relationship between several families, and Xinlan is Sun Wei and Li Li's matchmaker and Sun Wei's godmother. After a while, the car turned onto the main road, and there were more cars and more people. From time to time, the van stopped at traffic lights. Xijun sat in front, maybe because he saw that he had stopped too many times, and the car couldn't run, considering the time problem, he turned to Sun Wei and said: "Xiaowei, you pay attention to the time, don't delay." ”
Sun Wei looked at his watch and said, "It's okay, it's more than enough." After speaking, he turned to Li Li and said, "You gather the ID cards of our father and mother, and prepare them first, and I'll make a phone call first." As he spoke, he took out the big brother from his bag, pressed the number "drip-drip-", and then put it in his ear to listen. When everyone heard about it, they all took action, quickly took out their ID cards from their bags, and then gathered them in Li Li's hands. Sun Wei glanced at it with his eyes and didn't pick it up. That's when the phone went through. Everyone was afraid of affecting Sun Wei's speech, so they didn't dare to say anything, but only listened to Sun Wei say: "Xiao Zhang, right!?" ”
“………….。” Because of the sound of the car engine, except for Sun Wei, no one else could hear what was said on the phone.
"You send a car to pick up the plane at the Guangzhou Airport terminal in advance, a total of eight people."
“………。”
"The plane arrived around half past one in the afternoon."
“………。”
"Okay, okay, that's all." After Sun Wei finished speaking, he hung up the phone, put it away, and put it in his bag. Fusheng had never seen such a phone call, and when he saw such convenience, he couldn't help but sigh: "The phone is so convenient now?!" You can also take it with you on the go! ”
When Sun Wei heard this, he laughed "hey", and then said, "My uncle! You're a lonely man, and listening to what you say proves that you haven't seen anything yet. Let me tell you, this thing is called Big Brother, also known as mobile phones, and it was available in the south as early as about 87 years, and it is difficult to say how many of them are here. ”
"Our side opened late, how can it be compared with the south! Rare. Fusheng said.
"You don't necessarily know much, there are only big bosses who do big business here, how can you see it! Besides, you've been back for so many years, and you've been out for a few days? How will you know if there is one? Xinlan interjected.
"Isn't it? In the nineties of this year, we came over at the end of eighty-two, and the two ends added up, it should be counted as more than seven years, and the time of seven years must have changed a lot, but we don't know if we don't turn around and see! Fusheng sighed.
"But also, it's been more than seven years in the blink of an eye, and now this society is really the same every day." Xinlan said again.
"Yes, when Sun Wei and I first went to the south, it was a small county town, saying that it was a county seat, but it was actually a small fishing village, and now we go over and take a look, it is bigger than our Xijing, needless to say, you can imagine the speed of change." Li Li also said.
…………
A few people were talking here, and the western army was looking out the window speeding outside, and they were also sighing about the changes in current affairs. Yes, it has been more than ten years in a blink of an eye, everything has undergone earth-shaking changes, buildings on both sides of the road have risen from the ground, although they cannot catch up with the pace of reform and opening up in Shenzhen, but they are all full of a thriving, striving for the upper reaches of the scene. He looked at it and thought, unconsciously had a nostalgic feeling for his hometown, and said in his heart, the house is not afraid of living but is afraid of being empty, and now the eldest sister has vacated the house, I don't want to break the house again, why not take this opportunity to flip the house and build a permanent concrete structure building, one is not easy to damage, and the other is that there is a place to live when I occasionally come back in the future. He thought so, so he turned back to Fusheng and asked, "Brother Fusheng, since this house has been vacated by my sister, I can't let it be empty anymore, how about I rebuild it?" ”
"What are you going to build?" Fusheng asked.
Xijun said: "I haven't thought about this yet, but I roughly measured it before I left just now, and I think that the old house will be demolished, no yard will be left, a frame structure will be built, and a few more floors will be added, and it will be possible to live by myself or transform it into a family hotel in the future." ”
"Your idea is good, we have so many tourist areas here, business will definitely be good in the future, and the rent will not be bad." Fusheng Road.
"That's it, it's a good idea, you build it, it just so happens that Fusheng is fine during this time, let him help you run errands when you build it." When Xinlan heard this, she also hurriedly answered.
"Of course you can. It's just that I don't know what Brother Fusheng was doing at the construction site? "Xijun Road.
When Fusheng heard this, he hurriedly said: "I have been working in the construction team of my village for many years, and if I hadn't come back, I might still have it." ”
"If that's the case, after Li Li's marriage, I'll ask the designers in the company to give a plan, and when the New Year is warm, I'll take the time to come back to find Du Gong and them, and you will be the supervisor for me then, no problem, right?" The Western Army asked for advice.
"Don't worry, it's absolutely fine." Fusheng readily agreed.
Everyone was talking, and the car came out of the city unconsciously. Not long after, arrived at the airport. After sending the driver away, Sun Wei asked Li Li to gather her ID card in her hands, went to check in in advance, got a boarding pass, and then led everyone to the waiting area to wait. It wasn't until boarding the plane that everyone got up again, passed the security check, and boarded the plane in turn, and they were relieved.
Among the crowd, only Xijun, Sun Wei and Li Li have taken a plane for business reasons, and the others have not seen a real plane in reality except for seeing passenger planes on TV. Now that I am sitting on it suddenly, it is naturally novel, and it is inevitable to find a feeling and experience it. Sun Wei knew everyone's mood, so he didn't say more, just let them enjoy it. Seeing that it was time to take off, as the flight attendant came to help everyone fasten their seat belts, the plane began to taxi for a distance and then rose from the ground and soared into the blue sky. The plane flew smoothly, the scenery outside the window came into everyone's eyes through the window, watching the white clouds floating around the window, everyone enjoyed, unconsciously intoxicated in it, to the state of selflessness, until the flight attendant came to recommend lunch to wake up everyone. Sun Wei looked busy and asked for lunch for everyone. After everyone finished eating and resting for a while, the plane had arrived over Guangzhou, followed by a circle, and landed steadily at Guangzhou Airport after a while. So, everyone got off the plane in turn with their belongings and went out of the airport under the leadership of Xijun and Sun Wei.
"Mr. Sun, hello! Pick up your car here. As soon as everyone left the exit of the terminal, a tall man in a straight suit saw Sun Wei and raised his hand to signal forward. When Sun Wei saw it, he led everyone over. When the young man saw it, he was busy nodding to Xijun and Li Li on the side, saying hello, "Hello boss", "Hello Li Fu". When Xijun and Li Li heard about it, they were also busy returning the gift. Seeing that everyone arrived, the young man led the way to the company's van, Sun Wei commanded everyone to get into the car, and the car immediately began to set off.
"Mom, are you at home or where are you? We have already gotten off the plane and got on the car to pick us up, and it is estimated that we will be home in two hours, do you think we will go home first or go to the hotel first? ”
“…………。”
"Well, okay, that's all."
After Sun Wei finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Before he could speak, Xijun immediately asked, "What did your mother say?" ”
"My mother said to let me go home first, I have prepared snacks, cakes and fruits at home, and I will meet you first when I get home, and then I will go to the hotel after resting."
"That'll do fine." Xijun said, turned around and told Fusheng, Xinlan and Li Li's parents about the specific arrangements, and asked for everyone's opinions. When everyone heard this, they naturally had nothing to say and readily agreed.
The van did not hesitate and sped forward. A group of people waited to sit in the car, running and running, and some couldn't stay up and paused. Seeing that he was almost home, the phone called from home and urged him to ask where he was. After Sun Wei told the family, Mrs. Sun and Sun Wei's mother Ma Hui led people to the square in front of the door in advance to wait.
Finally, after nearly two hours of travel, the car drove into a high-end villa area and stopped in the small square in front of a beautiful three-story three-story western-style house.
Everyone came down in turn. Mrs. Sun and Ma Hui stepped forward to continue. After everyone met in turn, Mrs. Sun asked Xijun and Ma Hui to accompany Li Li's parents in front, and she led Xinlan and Fusheng back behind. Xinlan got the opportunity to ask the old lady: "Mother, I haven't seen you old for so many years, are you in good health?" ”
When the old lady heard this, she smiled and said, "My body is very good, how can you take a look?" As he spoke, he flicked his leg and kicked it twice.
Xinlan looked at it, smiled and hurriedly stopped: "Mother, don't you dare to kick like this, old arms and legs, can't be too fierce!" ”
"It's okay! I work out every day! After the old lady finished speaking, she turned her head and asked Xinlan: "Don't just talk about me, girl, how are you and Fusheng doing?" Are you all right? ”
"Good! Good! It's all right! When Fusheng and Xinlan heard this, they hurriedly replied.
As he spoke, he arrived at the door of the building. Ma Hui and Xijun stood at the luxurious gate and let everyone in and sit on the sofa, and then asked the servants to come over and serve the refreshments. Fusheng and Xinlan sat here, drinking tea and looking at the furnishings in the living room, which was an eye-opener! I saw the large living room, laid with a carpet symbolizing festivity, dotted with some unnamed flowers and trees all around, a high-end home theater next to it is playing gentle songs in a low voice, around it is placed a circle of luxurious sofas, clean and spacious living room from the top of the second floor from the top to the bottom of the hanging of a bright crystal clear chandelier, magnificent and gorgeous. After reading this, the two couldn't help but sigh, at this time, the Western Army came over, and while they were drinking tea, they roughly told everyone about the wedding arrangements of Sun Wei and Li Li. It turned out that Xijun and Ma Hui had already arranged their accommodation and contracted the wedding to a professional wedding company and hotel. You don't need to worry too much, you just need to pick Li Li home from the hotel on that day, and then go to the hotel to hold the wedding ceremony and feast the guests. As for Li Li's parents, Fusheng and Xinlan, considering that two days before the wedding, because they had to receive too many company owners and friends in the government, Xijun and his family were afraid of being rude, so they specially arranged for the company's special reception person to take the car and camera to lead Li Li's parents, Xinlan and Fusheng to the lively Zhongying Street and the beach two days before the wedding.
Hearing that they arranged so thoughtfully, Li Li's parents, Fusheng and Xinlan knew that they couldn't help anything, so they readily agreed.
Everything stopped, and it was time to eat, Sun Wei and Li Li came over to beckon everyone to sit back in the car, and the group went to the hotel that had already been booked, leaving only two servants at home to take care of the house. When I arrived at the hotel, the wine and food had come up in advance, and it was a sumptuous banquet. Sun Wei's parents accompanied Li Li's parents, and the old lady sat beside her. While gossiping during the meal, Xijun remembered about the family's house, so he told his mother and Ma Hui about it. When Mrs. Sun heard this, she hurriedly asked Xinlan what was going on. So Xinlan told the old lady about the specific situation at home.
The old lady listened and said, "When I didn't come out at home, I said that I was going to see your parents, but in the end, I was in a hurry to go, and I made a mistake about it, who knows how it could be like this!" Alas! It's unpredictable! The good thing is that you have finally settled down during your parents' lifetime, and you can be regarded as letting them go a little more steadily, so don't be too sad! ”
"I know, it's all over, and my father has been sick for so long, and I want to open my heart." Xinlan Road.
"It's good to open it! If you have any difficulties in life after you go back, you can call Sun Wei and his parents and ask them to help you. The old lady said.
Hearing the old lady say this, Xijun also hurriedly continued: "Sister, if you have difficulties, just say, you can find me or Sun Wei." To be honest, I've been here for so many years, and I've never seen our mother care about one person like this, that is you, usually Sun Wei and Li Li When they talk about you, Ma Hui and I can't interject. ”
Hearing Xijun say this, a circle of people laughed. Xinlan knew that the old lady was good to her, and she didn't know what to say for a while, so she paused for a moment before saying, "Then I'll take our mother back to live for a while, right?" ”
When Li Li's parents heard this, they also interjected: "That's it, go back, if you are tired of living in the city, you can go to live in the countryside for a while." ”
Xijun said: "Yes, but I have to talk about it after a while, because this side is about to reach the end of the year, my company, and Sun Wei have a lot of things to deal with, and I am ready to build a house in Xijing after the year, and there will be no shortage of people in the family here." ”
The old lady was on the side, she knew in her heart that Xinlan was busy with life all day long, and even if she had time to go over, she would add to the chaos, so she didn't want to cause trouble again. Thank you! Wait, I'll go back and stay for a while when I'm free, I won't say anything now, you're all here, our task today is to eat and drink well. ”
When they heard this, they all agreed. Xinlan couldn't say any more, so she had to follow everyone. So everyone concentrated on eating until the meal was finished. After the meal, considering the bumps along the way, everyone was already a little tired, after consulting their opinions, the Western Army did not let them go home with them, so they directly sent Li Li's parents, Fusheng and Xinlan to the arranged hotel, and after they were settled, they and the old lady led people away.
The next day, Fusheng, Xinlan and Li Li's parents were led by a special person to play in the vicinity according to the arrangement of the Western Army, and the old lady's house began to prepare for the wedding in full swing, until the afternoon before the wedding, the wedding company came to rehearse, Sun Wei personally drove over to pick up a few people, and when everything was ready in an orderly manner, it was evening. According to customs, it was time for Li Li to add boxes and pack cabinets, and at this time, her mother's family must not be present, so as usual, Xinlan and Ma Hui could only help Li Li code the boxes and seal the cabinets. When everything was over, it looked like Li Li and himself were going to the hotel. Xinlan thought of the red envelope that she had been carrying in her hand. She thought about it and was afraid that she would not have time to drive the next day, so she took out the red envelope and said to Sun Wei: "Xiaowei, this is the red envelope that Uncle Kai and I prepared for you and Li Li to get married, come, take it!" As he spoke, he handed it over.
Sun Wei knew the situation of Xinlan's family, so he didn't think about it in his heart, and refused with a smile when he saw this: "Mother, just come here, how can I still ask for red envelopes from you and my uncle?!" With that, he pushed back.
Xijun was on the side, and when they saw it, they all persuaded: "Sister, my brother is here, and you still need to spend this money?!" Don't dig it? ”
Xinlan said solemnly: "How can that work!" Xiaowei is also my child, how can I not spend anything on Li Li and her marriage? Not to mention my child, I can't say anything about etiquette. As he spoke, he grabbed Sun Wei's hand and forcibly put it into Sun Wei's hand.
Sun Wei didn't answer it and had no choice, so he had to return it if he did. The old lady watched them argue with a smile on the side, seeing the scene, she knew that this was etiquette, and it would definitely not work if she didn't accept it, so she said to Sun Wei: "Take it, this is given to you by your mother, if you don't accept it, she will feel bad when she goes back." ”
Hearing the old lady say the same, the two of them felt that this was also the case, and felt that it was indeed a bit unsightly to fight again, so they also persuaded Sun Wei to accept it. Sun Wei then accepted it and handed it to his mother, and then sent everyone back to the hotel.
The next day, just as planned and rehearsed, the wedding started on time amid a lively gun salute. A line of high-end cars greeted the family, and under the guidance of the salute, they happily took Li Li, who was dressed like Snow White, home. After a short rest, they came to the wedding site to hold a grand and romantic wedding ceremony, followed by the wedding banquet.
Xinlan and Fusheng have never seen such a large-scale marriage formation, and when they see them today, they can be regarded as eye-opening again! Boy! The hall was full of people eating and eating, and even the private room was full of people who looked like bosses, and there were even guests from abroad with high noses and blue eyes. The two didn't know what their relationship with Sun Wei was, and they only admired the ability of Xijun and Sun Wei in their hearts.
After the wedding was successfully held, the day after they came, Sun Wei and Li Li had to go through the process according to the customs of their hometown, while Xinlan and Fusheng were fine, so they came to see the old lady and talked with the old lady. I happened to see that the two members of the Western Army had not yet gone out. Xijun and Ma Hui were afraid that they would be left out in the cold, so they came over and said to Xinlan: "Sister, I'll send a car for someone to accompany you to go out to play again!" By the way, let's see what to buy and take it home. ”
Xinlan didn't want to turn anymore, so she hurriedly stopped: "Don't turn around, it's not easy to come here, I want to talk to our mother in the past two days, you can go and be busy, don't worry about my brother and me." ”
Xijun thought about it, too, it was not easy for the eldest sister to come here, so it was okay for her to talk to her mother, so she didn't force it anymore. When he turned around and was about to leave, he remembered that the eldest sister gave Sun Wei a red envelope two days ago, he knew that Xinlan's life was not easy, and when he came back, he discussed with Ma Hui and wanted to help her, but he was worried that she would not accept it, so the two of them thought of a way to use the opportunity to distribute the red envelope and prepare to give her 2,000 yuan. He thought so, so he said to Ma Hui: "There are red envelopes left over from the errands two days ago, you go over and get a bag for our sister and our brother." ”
When Ma Hui heard that, she went back to the house and took out two bags that had been prepared and came over to Xinlan. Xinlan saw it, was anxious, and hurriedly excused herself: "I came here to add a box to the child, how can I take it back and take it back?" ”
When Fusheng saw it, he also said why not let Xinlan pick it up.
When Xijun saw it, he knew that he definitely didn't want to force them, so he hurriedly stabilized his tone and deceited: "Sister, don't panic!" Listen to me! This is the local custom here, everyone has it, you can't be empty-handed, otherwise it will be rude for me here. ”
Xijun couldn't say anything about Xinlan, she already felt the weight of the money from the thickness of the bag, and knew in her heart that the money she returned was only more than Fusheng and herself, not less than that, so she still wanted to push it out. But the old lady on the side seemed to have known the meaning of the Xijun couple for a long time, and seeing that Xinlan didn't want to take it yet, she said in an irrefutable tone on the side: "Don't take it, bring it to me, no one wants to ask for it again." As he spoke, he came over and took it from Xinlan's hand.
When Xijun saw it, he knew his mother's intentions, so he simply stopped caring with Ma Hui, turned around and took the car keys and handbag, and then said hello to Fusheng and Xinlan and left home to go to the company.
Seeing that they were gone, the old lady sat down again. She took the two red envelopes in her hand, gestured for a while, weighed them in her hand, and did not give them to Xinlan and Fusheng immediately, but took out a stack of money from her pocket and put it together, and then said: "It's just right, put it together with the two thousand yuan I prepared for you a long time ago, you can keep it!" With that, he got up and was about to come over to Xinlan.
Xinlan saw that the old lady was still worried about herself, and she had already prepared money for herself, so she was even more excited, and hurriedly stood up and excused herself: "Mother, I can't ask for your money!" Over the years, Fusheng and I haven't come to see you, I'm embarrassed enough if I didn't give you money, how can I ask for you again?! ”
"What's wrong with my money? It's not that you don't know, except for Sun Wei and his father and son, who will you give to your daughter? Don't say it, get it for me. The old lady said in a tone that did not allow Xinlan to disagree.
Listening to the old lady say that she was just her own daughter, Xinlan, who was already excited, seemed to be touched to the depths of her soul, and couldn't help but think of her mother, thinking that she was also a woman without parents at this moment, she unconsciously regarded the old lady as her only mother, and her eyes were blurred by tears instantly. She was afraid that she would lose her temper, so she lowered her head and refused: "Mother, it's not that I don't want it, it's really not easy for Sun Wei and his father to get this money!" ”
"Oh, what do you know, my daughter, you've been here for a few days, and you can't see how they're doing? Sit down and let me tell you. ”
Hearing the old lady say this, Xinlan still wanted to resist and refused. Fusheng on the side was anxious to hear the situation of the father and son of the Western Army, and when he saw that Xinlan was still stubborn, he hurriedly said: "Xinlan, you catch it first, let our mother tell us about the situation of the Western Army and Sun Wei, and it is not too late to listen to it and talk about the money." ”
When Xinlan heard this, she thought about it, so she took the money, and then helped the old lady to sit down, and said, "Then I'll talk about this money later, I can't ask for it anyway." ”
So, the old lady talked about the situation of Xijun and Sun Wei, and the two slowly learned from the old lady that Xijun and Ma Hui operated a large-scale real estate development company, and Sun Wei and Li Li also because of the original business relationship with their father's company and other real estate companies, not only continued to operate the tool store opened when they first came, but also registered a trading company because of the reason for acting as an agent for foreign high-end power tools, and also built a joint venture power tool factory with others. At the same time, at the request of his father, he also helped his father manage part of the business of the real estate company. Both of them managed a large number of workers. And now this money is all their usual pocket money, which may not be enough for their usual phone bills.
Having said this, Xinlan really didn't know what to do, she hesitated to stand up and just wanted to give it to the old lady, but she didn't expect that as soon as she raised her hand, the old lady reached out and gently opened her hand, and then said: "Give it to me again, I'm going to be angry!" As he spoke, he pouted and looked angry.
Seeing her like this, Xinlan and Fusheng felt that they couldn't refuse, so they had to put it away.
The next day, after finishing all the customs and etiquette that Sun Wei and Li Li should go to get married, it was time for Xinlan, Fusheng and Li Li's parents to return. Coincidentally, Sun Wei and Li Li also arranged to deal with the company's business and prepare to go abroad for their honeymoon, and everyone happened to take a plane at Baiyun Airport at the same time.
The following year, in March and April, sure enough, the Western Army took the time to return to Xijing. He took the designed drawings and homestead certificate, led Fusheng to the relevant departments to go through the corresponding procedures, and on the basis of the original site, according to what he said at the beginning, Fusheng was the supervisor to rebuild a five-story frame structure building, and immediately rented it to a Henan man to renovate it into a hotel. Of course, this is indispensable to Fusheng's credit. He ran before and after, and regarded the project as his own house, which not only successfully completed the trust of the Western Army, but also won face for Xinlan.
