Chapter 211 Home is where the old man is.
“Grandma, I didn’t bring anything with me, everything is needed.”
“You kid, you don’t have much? What are you doing? Are you planning to move here?”
“Grandma, don’t talk anymore, let’s bring the things in!”
“Yes, yes, bring them in first.”< br>
At this time, Li Laogenle's teeth were exposed.
Because he saw wine and tea, which are both things he likes!
As for cigarettes, although he also smokes, he is not interested in these cigarettes, mainly because they are too expensive.
Even if he held it, he would not be willing to smoke it, especially two cigarettes of Chinese cigarettes, which cost six yuan and a half each!
Unfortunately, what Li Laogen didn't know was that these two cigarettes were not priced at 6.50 each, but at 7.50 each.
Because this is Greater China, a pack of cigarettes is more expensive than a Chinese cigarette.
"Grandson, why did you bring so much meat?" Grandma asked at this time.
“I didn’t take much! Just twenty pounds.”
“You kid, chickens, ducks and geese are not meat?”
“Uh!”
Well, if you count chickens, ducks and geese, it is indeed quite a lot.
"Grandma, if you can't finish it, pickle it up. If you can't dry it, you can keep it for a while."
"That's the only way. I'll give half of the pork suet to your aunt later. Let her take it back to refine the oil."
"Grandma, you should let Auntie refine the oil here and then take it back."
"Yes, yes, if you take it back to refine the oil, left. Neighbors will know.”
"Hmm!"
"Grandson! Is this the tea you brought for grandpa?" Li Laogen hugged three cans of tea and couldn't put it down.
"Yes, but there is a can that I promised to give to my uncle."
"What for him? He doesn't know how to drink tea."
"Uh!" Li Jia Yi was stunned for a moment and looked at the old man speechlessly.
"You old man, you even robbed your son's things." The old lady patted Li Laogen and said.
“I didn’t grab it, isn’t it in my hand!”
The old lady stopped paying attention to him, but turned to look at Li Jiayi and said: “Grandson, you ran away so You should be tired now! Go and take a rest. Grandma will prepare something delicious for you later.”
“Thank you, Grandma.”
That’s it for Li Jiayi. He sat down to drink tea, but the way he drank tea made Li Laogen's heart tremble.
There is no way! This guy drinks tea with his hands, and he grabs a handful of tea leaves.
So much tea is enough for him to drink for two days. I feel so distressed!
The grandparents here have just put away their things, and the uncle’s family has also rushed over.
Due to the drought, there is not much work in the countryside at this time, otherwise it would be the busy farming season.
"Mom, let me help you cook."
"Okay, I just want to make more delicious food for my eldest grandson. I can't do it alone."
After the old lady finished speaking, she turned to look at the little girl Li Jiafen and asked: "Granddaughter, are you here?" How are things going at your brother's house?"
"Grandma, you are doing well. My eldest sister and my second sister took me out to play every day. Brother Jiayi bought me a lot of delicious food.”
“In addition, my eldest sister also cooked a lot of delicious food for me, which I have never eaten before. ”
“Hahaha, that’s good.”
"Dad, can I have a can of this tea?" The uncle saw three cans of tea on the table and quickly picked up one and said.
I was so busy taking other things into the house just now that I forgot the tea leaves outside.
Li Laogen snatched the tea leaves and said, "What are your tea leaves? These were given to me by my eldest grandson."
The uncle glanced at Li Jiayi.
Li Jiayi helplessly showed his hands to him. What else does the uncle not understand? The old man is trying to give away his tea leaves!
But there was nothing he could do, he couldn't compete with his father! I can only go back and find a way to take it away.
"Brother, after the holiday, can I also go to your house to play?" The second cousin came over and asked.
“Uh! Sure!”
Needless to say, the second cousin must have had this idea because he heard Li Jiafen talk about what he was doing in the city.
“Really?”
"What a piece of shit." The uncle slapped the second cousin on the back of the head and said, "How old are you, and you still want to be like your little sister."
"I..." The second cousin rubbed it Rubbing the back of his head, he didn't know what to say.
He also knew that this was not enough, but he was attracted by the various delicacies the little sister said.
In the little sister’s description, her uncle’s house is a place he never dared to dream about.
"It's okay, uncle. If my second brother wants to go, I will pick him up during the holiday. Anyway, we have a place to live at home."
"Where are you going? I heard from others that life in the city is very difficult now. It's not as good as our village."
"Uh!"
Uncle Li Jiayi didn't know what to think about this. I accepted it because what he said was right. The current situation in the city is indeed not as good as Lijiacun.
But Li Jia’s family is an exception! And he knew that the uncle said this because he didn't want to cause trouble to his family.
"It's okay, uncle, you know the situation of my family is different from other families. My second brother can go if he wants to."
"I want to go too." The cousin scratched his head honestly.
“You brat, you want to be punished too, right?” The uncle glared at his cousin. "You can go if you want to. To be honest, I still want my grandparents to go!" Li Jia glanced at the old man and the old lady.
"Let's forget it, we are fine here, so we won't cause any trouble to you." Grandma said.
"Grandma, how can you and grandpa be trouble! You and grandpa are gone, and it's too late for us to be happy."
Honoring the elderly is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation.
A home is a home when there are old people there. Is a home without old people still called a home?
For example, in their home, they only come back so many times when the two old people are there.
If the two old people are really gone, no matter how good the relationship between the two brothers Li Aiguo and Li Aimin is, they will not be able to come back so many times.
If that's the case, it would be good for Li Jiayi to come back twice a year.
This is not to say that he doesn't like his uncle's family, but it's mainly because he doesn't feel as comfortable as he does now.
With his grandparents here, he felt very comfortable and at ease when he came back.
So, the elderly are the bond that maintains family ties and the soul of the home.
As the saying goes, one old man in a family is like a treasure. There are two old men in their family, which are two treasures.
"Okay, let's talk about this later. We are in good health now. When we really can't walk anymore, we will definitely go."
"Okay!"
Grandma said this, and Li Jiayi knew that she and her grandfather really didn't want to go to the city now.
This is normal. It is hard to leave your hometown. Besides, everyone in the village is familiar with it. When you go to the city, you will always feel inconvenient if you are not familiar with the place.
Li Jiayi also knew this, so he didn't check it. He could just come back a few more times.
There was no way before, but now he can come back whenever he wants, and sometimes he doesn't even need to tell his parents.
"Okay, you guys talk outside, and we'll go cook." After grandma said that, she took her eldest daughter-in-law into the kitchen.
Grandma is good at this. She treats both daughters-in-law the same, just like her own daughter, never taking sides.
After grandma and aunt went to the kitchen, the uncle came over with a teapot and said, "Dad, can you make me some of your tea?"
The old man looked at him. , pinched a little with three fingers and put it into the teapot.
"Dad, that's all! It doesn't even taste."
"This is already a lot, how much more do you want?"
"Uh!"
The uncle looked at his own teapot, then looked at Li Jiayi's teapot, This is completely incomparable!
The amount of tea in my own teapot is probably not more than one-tenth of the amount in my nephew’s teapot.
Seeing the eldest son staring at the eldest grandson's teapot, the corners of the old man's mouth twitched.
"That nephew, please give me some tea!" Li Aiguo said.
"Oh! Okay, you can just pour it!" Li Jia pushed the teapot over and said.
"Hey, hey, it's better for me to be my eldest nephew."
Originally, the eldest cousin and the second cousin also wanted to drink, but seeing this situation, the two of them did not dare to speak.
I can only drink boiled water, and I don’t dare to mention tea. My father treats me like this, let alone the two of them.
At noon, the family had a happy meal together. The ingredients used were all brought by Li Jiayi today.
Knowing that her eldest grandson didn’t like to eat bacon and bacon, the old lady didn’t even cook it.
But this is not actually the case. Li Jiayi never said that he did not like to eat cured meat and bacon.
The second sister said it. The reason why he didn't eat much last time was because he wanted his two older cousins to eat more.
After all, he is not short of that meal, but the two cousins are different!
If Li Jiayi hadn't come over, they might not be able to eat meat once for half a month.
They could come to their grandparents’ house to eat, but their uncle and aunt wouldn’t let them come.
After eating and resting for a while, Li Jiayi left because he had something to do in the afternoon, so he had to go back early.
More than two hours later, Li Jiayi returned to the city, and at this time, it was less than four o'clock.
Li Jiayi did not go home, but drove a tricycle directly to the courtyard.
I left early in the morning and didn't even wait for the fat little black guy to come over.
As soon as the tricycle arrived at the entrance of the small courtyard, the gate opened.
"You can do it, kid. There is no need to call the door now." Li Jia nodded and said.
"Hey, hey, of course, your tricycle is the only thing that comes here and moves."
"That's true."
This place is relatively remote, and few people come here, let alone cars!
After parking the tricycle, the two people came to the house.
"Plus one, I'll give you yesterday's money first." After saying that, he took his schoolbag and took out the money he sold yesterday.
"By the way, Li Jiayi, after we start school, won't we be able to sell it?" the fat man asked.
“It’s not impossible to sell it, for example, after school or on Sundays. I just don’t know if everyone is willing to do it?”
"I'm definitely willing! Although I can only sell once a day, I can still make a lot of money! Who wouldn't want to."
"Fat man, you'd better ask first. If everyone is willing, then Just continue, if you don’t want to, forget it.”
“Well! I’ll ask them later.”
PS: Love is always there. Can I give you a monthly pass? Thanks!
