Chapter 224: Idyllic
The two of them developed a new habit of brushing a Chinese or math paper after writing their school homework.
Neither of them wrote on the paper, but wrote on the straw paper, and then exchanged and checked the answers. Archie thinks that this can be used for her sister when she is in the fifth grade.
It is said that Xu Changan's grandfather had a meal full of rural flavor at the old village chief's house, and the old village chief's son, that is, the principal, was so excited that he was about to call Xu Changan's grandfather "Golden Father", this is because, during the meal, when Grandpa Xu heard that the school library had an old collection of books and even a small number, he casually said that he was ready to donate one million books.
The headmaster blinked, deeply suspecting that he had misheard, "What do you keep saying?" One hundred books. ”
"A million books."
"One...... One by one," the headmaster stammered. In his mind, 100,000 is enough to be great, and someone actually opened his mouth to donate 1 million to his school!!
"Yes, you heard it right, a million books, great, grandpa." Xu Changan drank the chicken soup and nodded at the principal, "This little old man may have done it when he was young, he made a lot of money, and his son is also very promising, so he doesn't want him to be an old man." You know the house price in Yunhai City, and if you sell a house casually, you will be a multimillionaire, and he will donate one million, which is a small matter. You're welcome. ”
Grandpa Xu Changan couldn't cry or laugh.
The principal was respectful and hurriedly added chicken soup to Grandpa Xu: "I thank you on behalf of the children!" ”
"No thanks. It's a meaningful way to spend money, and I'm glad to have that opportunity. ”
After a happy meal, it was already afternoon. Grandpa Xu was in good spirits and decided to walk around the village. The villagers carrying hoes, the dogs walking freely, and the chickens foraging everywhere are the idyllic songs in his heart.
"It's nice to be able to stay here for a while." Grandpa Xu said to his grandson beside him.
"Okay, it's easy to build you a house, the engineering team is here, it's a matter of three or five days."
"Where?" Grandpa Xu seriously looked for a place.
"Hahaha, you're serious." Xu Changan laughed. There was no sarcasm in the laughter, just surprises and fun. Grandpa Xu accurately understood his grandson's laughter, nodded seriously and said, "Yes, I'm so old, I'm tired of seeing the glitz in the city for a long time, and I just want to spend a simple life slowly in a place with beautiful mountains and rivers for the rest of my life." ”
Xu Changan nodded: "If you really want to think so, I have a ready-made place for you." ”
"Oh?"
Xu Changan took his grandfather straight to Ah Qiao's house. Ah Qiao's house has a huge courtyard, and there are only 4 tiled houses in the yard, three in a row as accommodation, and one separate as a kitchen. In addition, there is an empty yard. There is a front yard, there is a backyard, and the backyard can grow vegetables, how empty do you say?
Xu Changan and his grandfather went to the yard on the low fence to look out, and the yard under the tall trees revealed a different kind of quietness, with red flowers and willow green, which was very eye-catching, and Grandpa Xu was unconsciously stupid.
Guoguo smelled the smell of the living for a long time, and whined. It's a sound of vigilance.
Ah Qiao was squatting in the yard counting ants, raised his head when he heard the sound, turned back, and didn't see Xu Changan's eldest brother, Xu Changan greeted her first: "Ah Qiao! It's me and my grandpa! ”
Ah Qiao stood up and waved sweetly to his brother and grandfather.
"Can I come and sit at your house?"
"Yes." Ah Qiao nodded.
Xu Changan encouraged his grandfather to enter the yard. Grandpa Xu walked steadily into the courtyard with steady steps.
