Chapter 486: It’s hard to protect yourself
It looked like someone was cleaning the yard frequently, and even the soil in the garden that had been built before looked damp.
The difference is that there were many flowers and plants planted in the garden before. Those flowers and plants are gone, but the land in the garden is not empty. They are all planted with vegetables, including cabbage, rapeseed, and some that are thirty or forty centimeters tall. The tall beans and crooked-necked jujube trees were covered with half-sized green jujubes, which turned out to be a lively scene.
Cui Wenquan walked around in the yard, looking up at the jujube trees for a while and then at the vegetables. He walked around and couldn't get enough of them.
The uncle should help take care of the yard.
Cui Changjia watched his father walking around with a reluctant look on his face and said, "Dad, how about staying at home tonight?"
Cui Wenquan stood under the crooked jujube tree and reached out to touch the trunk. The rough lines on the bark of the jujube tree made his hands ache.
Cui Wenquan raised his head slightly. There was no point in staying one night.
Cui Wenquan said silently, "Forget it, I'll go to your uncle's house, you go to your uncle's house, and when we come back, let's burn the paper on the grave and go back."
Cui Changjia looked at his disappointed father and sighed.
Cui Changjia first sent her father to the uncle's house, talked to the uncle and aunt for a few words, and then went to her grandmother's house with the driver Xiao Wang. It was already an hour later when she came back.
Entering the yard of the uncle's house, I could hear bursts of chatter and laughter coming from the house in the distance.
Cui Changjia went in and saw that there were many people sitting in the uncle's house, including the village secretary and several respected elders.
Her father was surrounded by people, and people poured him tea from time to time. At that moment, it was like going back to the past.
It's just that her father's expression is dull and not as enthusiastic as before.
Cui Changjia said hello one by one and was called away by her aunt.
Aunt Cui Changjia pulled her into the back room, opened the cabinet, dug through it again and again, took out a white and yellowed handkerchief, and pulled Cui Changjia to sit down from the bed.
The aunt was in her seventies, with almost white hair and a very frail body. She spread the handkerchief in the palm of her hand and said as she opened it, "This is something left by your grandma. I gave it to your mother the year your grandma died." , she didn’t want it.”
In fact, when Cui Changjia saw the handkerchief that was so white that it turned yellow, she knew what it was because she had seen it many times in her grandma's cabinet.
Every time she went to see her, grandma would point her nose and say, "Whenever our Jiajia gets married, grandma will give you all these things."
Grandma has many grandchildren. Probably because she grew up in front of her, grandma loves her very much.
The handkerchief was opened, containing a pair of silver bracelets and several pairs of silver earrings.
Cui Changjia looked at the pile of small things and burst into tears.
Seeing these things, she reminded her of her grandma, and of the winter nights when her grandma tucked her into the bed and put her cotton coat next to the stove to keep warm
"I heard your dad said you were getting married, and your grandma told you to give these things to you when you get married," the aunt said, taking Cui Changjia's hand and stuffing the things into her hands, "I heard your dad I said, you found a good person. Your uncle and I should have gone to meet him, but we are old and it is difficult to go to town. If you have a chance in the future, bring him back and let us have a look. "
Cui Changjia clutched the handkerchief, lowered his head, and shed tears.
"Good boy, don't cry. Your dad has suffered a big disaster this time. Everything was fine in the past. Tell aunt, how is your eldest brother?" Aunt also shed tears, "Your dad told me That’s good, why don’t I believe it? One time I dreamed that your eldest brother jumped off a building, and he wouldn’t answer no matter how I called him.”
"My eldest brother is fine," Cui Changjia choked, "but there are scars on his body and face. It hurts and itches when it's cloudy and rainy."
"God, what a sin this has caused!"
When Cui Changjia saw his aunt crying, he was afraid that her crying would cause trouble. He quickly wiped his tears and said, "Aunt, please stop crying. We have built the factory again. Although we still owe the debt, it is much better than the previous two years. Ah Ze is very confident now, and has done well in Changle University, and things are gradually getting better. I will ask them all to come back to see you during the Chinese New Year.”
"Okay."
The aunt took Cui Changjia and asked many questions in detail before she felt relieved.
Seeing that it was getting late, Cui Changjia put his things away and went out. Cui Changjia went out and Cui Wenquan looked at her.
Cui Changjia said, "Dad, it's almost time. We should go burn paper for our grandparents."
Cui Wenquan immediately said, "Let's go to the grave first." He stood up as he spoke.
The village party secretary also stood up and said, "Brother Quan, I'll go with you."
"No, brother and I will go," Cui Wenquan said with a slight smile, "I haven't been back for two or three years. Let's stay at the grave for a while."
The village party secretary said, "Brothers will set up a table to entertain you tonight."
Cui Wenquan didn't say anything, just smiled.
Cui Changjia's mother had prepared the incense candles, paper money and tributes they had used before coming, so they could use them there.
Cui Changjia asked the driver to wait on the side of the road. She, her father and uncle went to burn paper and kowtow, and then left with the driver.
It was already past four in the afternoon when we left, and it would probably be early morning by the time we arrived in Zhoucheng.

When they almost arrived in town, the village party secretary called Cui Wenquan.
"Brother Quan, why are you leaving? It's hard for you to come back. I have to entertain you well."
Cui Wenquan said, "I still have a lot of things to do at home, so I won't stay here for now. I will stay for a few more days next time I come."
"Brother Quan, you have to take what I'm telling you seriously. I'm going to be fifty soon. If I can be transferred to the town, what good policies can I bring to our village? Do you think so? .”
"Xiangzi, I'm embarrassed to say it in front of others. Look at my current situation. Who in the town is willing to give me face?"
"Brother Quan, I don't want to be an official of any size, any department will do. At the lowest level, I can earn a pension in the future, don't you think?"
"Xiangzi, I can't even protect myself. You'd better let others see if there is a way out."
The village party secretary didn't speak for a long time, and after a while he said, "Okay, Brother Quan, pay attention to safety on the road, and we will continue after you come back."
"Okay."
The village party secretary hung up the phone first.
Cui Wenquan turned off his phone directly.
Cui Changjia showed her grandma's things that her aunt gave her to her father, "Dad, look at my grandma's bracelets and earrings. Do you still remember them?"
Cui Wenquan took it with a smile on his face, "Your aunt gave it to you."
"Yes, my grandma told me to give it to me before. When I go back, Changle and I will split it half and half."
Cui Wenquan knows that his daughter does not lack these things now, but these things are just souvenirs.
"Keep it, it's just for thoughts. Your aunt still wants to give you more money for makeup. Your eldest cousin has grandchildren, so the burden is heavy. Your uncle and aunt don't have any money, so I don't want it."
< br>
"Just don't, I'm not short of money. Dad, don't worry about these things at home."
Hey guys, the update is complete, good night, okay
