In fact, as early as six or seven years ago, Guan Yuntian had to take his parents into the city to live with him, at that time his parents were still strong, and the two old men lived in his house for less than a week, saying that they wanted to go back to the countryside, Guan Yuntian had no choice but to spend money to renovate the house in his hometown and send his parents back.

Guan Yuntian thought that his parents were used to living in the house of his hometown, and he thought that his house was not big enough, he felt that as long as the house was big enough, his parents were still willing to live in the city, but he didn't expect that now let his parents go to the city to live alone in that house, they still don't want to go into the city, which makes him feel very helpless.

However, the situation has changed now, because their parents are over 70 years old, and their physical condition has long been different, and let them continue to live in their hometown, Guan Yuntian has no time to take care of it.

Guan Chenglin and his wife may have their own ideas, they don't fully understand their son's painstaking efforts, "Yuntian, now the village contact is also very convenient, if we feel unwell, make a call to the medical point, and the barefoot doctor in the village can come to the house for consultation, and the service is also very considerate." ”

"Mom and Dad, the medical point in the village, no matter the level of medical care and the type of medicine, cannot be compared with the hospital in the city. ”

After listening to his son's words, Guan Chenglin and Ma Guihua stopped talking, and they neither objected nor approved of living in the city, which made Guan Yuntian a little overwhelmed.

"Mom and Dad, do you have any concerns? Don't worry, I have already discussed this matter with Zhou Yuanyuan, and she also advocates that you go to the city to live. "Guan Yuntian said.

"Yuntian, it's not impossible for us to live in the city, but aren't Yuanyuan's parents still in the countryside, do you think that's good?" Ma Guihua said worriedly.

"Hey, you're thinking too much!" Guan Yuntian was moved by the kindness of his parents.

"It's not that we think too much, if you don't have a good balance between the two aspects, and we are afraid that Yuanyuan will have a conflict with you, then it's not worth it. If it is for the sake of me and your mother's affairs, causing a conflict between the two of you, do you think my mother and I can be at ease?"

"Mom and Dad, I have to thank you for thinking so. On the other hand, Zhou Yuanyuan's parents, on the one hand, are still working in a carton factory, and the distance to commute to work after entering the city is even farther, and it is very unsafe for him to ride a motorcycle, so he is not ready to go to the city to live before he retires; on the other hand, Zhou Yuanyuan decided to buy a house of 80 or 90 square meters in the city in her name and put it there, and then let his parents live in the city when her father is no longer at work. Guan Yuntian explained.

"Well, it's pretty much the same, Yuanyuan and her parents can't say anything. However, we live in the city, our eyes are black, we don't know anyone, and to be honest, it's not as interesting as the countryside. Lao Guan said bluntly.

"To put it bluntly, you are not used to staying in the city, except for a few old neighbors in the countryside and a few good buddies and sisters in the village, what else? In the city, it is different, there are shopping malls, parks and various markets, as long as you can walk, you can go around every day, as for acquaintances and friends, as long as you want to get acquainted, in parks and other public places, there are many elderly people who are about your age. "Guan Yuntian said.

"However, these old guys in the village have to gradually distance themselves from us!" Lao Guan said regretfully.

"Dad, your age is getting older year by year, and your physical condition is naturally worse year by year, even if you continue to live in the countryside, there will be fewer and fewer opportunities to meet those old guys in the future, this is the law of nature, there is nothing to regret. Living in the city can at least ensure that your quality of life has improved, which one do you say is more important than the two?" Guan Yuntian tried his best to comfort his parents.

"Yuntian, it's not that we refuse to go to the city to live, your father said this, but he is a little reluctant to live in this place where our ancestors have lived for generations, we know that the living conditions in the city are definitely better than in the countryside, and they all say that people go to higher places, who doesn't want to go to a good place? To be honest, I went to live in the city with your father, and the people in the village envy us. "Ma Guihua Road.

"Then don't make any more excuses, while I have time today, I will come back early to do work for you, on the one hand, so that you can have a mental preparation, on the other hand, you also pack up the things at home in advance, throw away what should be thrown away, give away what should be given away, sell what should be sold, and really take you into the city, it may take five or six months. "Guan Yuntian said.

"We took advantage of this time to prepare. It's just that after we enter the city, if this house is left unattended, will it ......?" Lao Guan was still a little reluctant.

"Dad, I understand your worries, but what else is valuable in this house? Let's lock the door, with my Guan Yuntian's contribution to the local area, I will say hello to the village chief and the branch secretary, let the village help with an eye, and then let my sister come over every other time to have a look, in addition, you can also go back to your hometown every month, I think, these fathers and villagers will not tear down this house, right?" Guan Yuntian said with a smile.

"That's not it, I still have some popularity with your mother in the village. ”

"That's it, you don't have to worry too much, the old and young masters in the village are still good. ”

"Yuntian, even if we go to the city, but you go to live in the provincial capital, there will be fewer opportunities to meet us in the future, right?" Maybe as she gets older, Ma Guihua misses her relatives even more.

"Hmph, speaking of this, it just reminded me. After moving to the provincial capital, because the children are more nervous about studying, there will definitely not be many opportunities for you to meet Zhou Yuanyuan and the children, but now you will only meet them once or twice a year, right? "Guan Yuntian said.

"Forget it, you're so busy every day, don't delay your work for us. ”

"You can rest assured, this has no impact on my work, didn't I say at the beginning, although the company's executives have gone to live in the provincial capital, but our job is still in the county, except for holidays and weekends, other executives have to work in the headquarters of Changda Group, I have to work there for more than half of the time, after work, I have no other residence in the county, I can only go back to live with you. ”

"That's great! Yuntian, since you graduated from college and joined the work, your mother hasn't cooked for you, and when we go to the city in the future, as long as you don't go back to the provincial capital, your mother will cook for you every day. Ma Guihua said happily.

"Mom, you are so old, being able to take care of yourself is the greatest support for me, our unit has a canteen, how can I let you cook for me!"

Finally got through the ideological work of his parents, Guan Yuntian was relieved, he could let his parents live in the city, and the living conditions were good, on the one hand, he could often see the two old people, and his heart would be much more steady. After all, his parents are getting older and older year by year, and there is no one to take care of him, if he continues to live in the countryside and stay away from his sight, he will really have three longs and two shorts, and it will be too late to regret it.

Seeing that the time was not early, Guan Yuntian was about to get up and go back to the city, "Mom, the matter is decided, you make preparations during this period, and I will come back to pick you up into the city when the time comes." ”

"It's almost noon, I'll cook, you have lunch and then leave. Ma Guihua got up and walked to the kitchen.

"Mom, I still have something to do, I'm not at home for lunch, don't be busy, I'm leaving!" After speaking, he turned around and walked out of the courtyard gate.

Guan Yuntian was just about to get into the car, a half-old "Santana" came at a gallop, and in front of him a sudden brake, out of the driver's seat a person, Guan Yuntian turned his head to see, know, the person who came was the head of Guan Yang Village, "Yuntian, why did you just come and leave in a hurry?" This Guan village chief, and Guan Yuntian are the same generation brothers who did not have five blessings, but they are more than ten years older than Guan Yuntian, and the two have agreed to call him by his name, not his position, but the size still has to be discussed.

"Yo, big brother village chief, where are you going? I went home to discuss something with my parents, and after the matter was over, I was ready to go back to the city. Guan Yuntian closed the car door and turned around.

"I'm not going anywhere, I'm here to look for you. ”

"Looking for me, how do you know I'm back?" Guan Yuntian was a little puzzled.

"As soon as your car entered the village, someone told me. I'm glad I arrived just in time, or I wouldn't have seen you. ”

"Really, if you're a minute late, maybe we'll be out of the village. Do you have anything to do with me?"

"Yuntian, you have a lot of opportunities, you finally came back once, it's rare to meet with you, it's almost noon now, I want to invite you to a meal with the village party secretary, nothing else. ”

"I thought you had something to do, just eat, let's see you later. After speaking, Guan Yuntian stretched out his hand to pull the car door and was about to sit in the car.

"Don't worry! ”

Closing the car door again, Guan Yuntian turned around and asked, "Aren't you okay?"

"Yuntian, it's noon, and it's lunch time to go back to the unit now! You just stay for lunch and then go back to the city, and you won't be able to delay your work in the afternoon. ”

"Ouch, what's the trouble!" It's really hard to refuse, but Guan Yuntian thinks it's good to meet with them, after his parents enter the city in the future, he will take advantage of this opportunity today to ask the village to help take care of the house in his hometown, "Okay, it's better to be respectful than to obey." ”

"It's not early, let's go directly to the hotel, and I'll make a call to the branch secretary." ”

The village chief himself drove the "Santana" to lead the way, and the Audi A8 followed behind, only seven or eight minutes away, they came to a hotel in the village and drove the car into a spacious courtyard.

Guan Yuntian didn't expect that in this remote village, there is such a hotel with good conditions, at least from the outside, the environmental sanitation is very good, and when he walked into the private room booked by the village chief Guan, he saw that the room was clean and hygienic, and the tables and chairs were spotless.

"We came a little early, and by noon the yard and outside the roadside would be full of cars. Guan Cun said.

"It seems that the business of this restaurant is very hot!" the driver, Master Wang, interjected.

"Several nearby villages, as well as those in the townships, are willing to come here to eat, and if they come a little late, there will be no seats. ”

"The business is so hot, customers come here, and the food must be good. ”

"It's mainly specialty, and it's all about a few specialties to attract customers. ”

At this time, Yang Zhishu pushed the door in, "Mr. Guan, welcome back to his hometown!" Old Yang shook hands with Guan Yuntian warmly when he entered the house.

"Ouch, you're so polite! To be honest, every time I go back to my hometown, I'm afraid of alarming you. "Guan Yuntian said.

"You're welcome, you have made a great contribution to the poverty alleviation and prosperity of your hometown, and we just want to express a little heart. You must know that before the change of the appearance of the hometown, the village did not have the financial resources and did not have such a place. ”
