The comprehensive strength of 100 counties (cities) and the economically strong counties (cities) of Shandong Province, and advanced cities in the construction of spiritual civilization. This is the hometown of Comrade Li Cong, Feicheng, Shandong. His grandfather Li Shugong was a village party secretary in a town called Wenyang in the south of Feicheng. He was also the current patriarch of the Li family. He was the same in the village as the children’s group during the Anti-Japanese War. Long, this year is ninety years old. Grandma is seven years younger than grandfather. At that time, she was married to old couples and young wives. There was an uncle and two aunts in her hometown. Li Cong’s grandmother’s house was also a few kilometers away from this village, Li I grew up with my grandmother since I was young, and my grandmother’s feelings are still very deep. There are two uncles and one aunt at home. They are all honest farmers, but this time Li Cong’s arrival will help them in the future. A big change in his life.
　　 "How far is it, Dad, I was so thirsty that I didn't drink any water in the morning, and my throat was about to smoke." Li Cong looked miserable.
"Who is it to blame? I started walking early in the morning and used that energy? It will be ten minutes later. This time, the new road we walked is only forty kilometers and less than fifty minutes, fast enough. Yes, your dad is not a young man who would drive fast in the army." Father Li looked at his son as he drove, as if he had never known him. He had never seen his son so good at something. heart.
In a small farmyard of 50 square meters, Li Cong’s grandfather is clearing the snow in the yard, and his grandmother is preparing breakfast in the kitchen. It is a peaceful scene. Li Cong’s cousin has not found a job because he just graduated from a junior college. Staying at home, helping grandma wash the old clothes at home.
"Old man, don't mess with that guy. Hurry up and bring me the noodles I drove from the house. After a while, Liangliang and his dad will come back. The two of you have not eaten, so don't leave them hungry." I knew last night that my eldest son and grandson were coming back. The old lady rushed to prepare the noodles overnight, washed the leeks, ate the noodles in the morning, and prepared dumplings at noon. Both of these were favorite foods for Li Cong and his son.
"Oh, you, that's the name of a busy person. The two of them will not come back after eating at home. What are they going to do? They didn't have a good job just after the new year, but they still disturbed my day's work when they came back." The old man said so. Without delaying his work, he quickly threw down his broom and went to the house to serve noodles.
　　 "Hehe, grandma, why do you love my brother and my uncle so much? I worked all morning and didn't see you cooking for me. Ask me if I have eaten." The granddaughter Li Hui on the side expressed dissatisfaction.
"Ghost girl, I will shut your mouth when I come out in a while, saying that I am partial. Your brother comes back for a few meals a year. You look like here all day long. Which meal is hungry for you? "The old lady was angry with her precious granddaughter. She was about to say a few words. A familiar brake sounded at the door. This Shenlong Fukang was bought by Li Cong's father at the old car market for 20,000 yuan, but here it is. Small villages are also rare. Don't think Feicheng is a top 100 county in the country. It's all published by newspapers. The actual situation is far from that.
　　 "Grandma, my uncle and my brother are back, I'll pick them up." After that, the little girl threw down her hand and ran out. Li Hui and Li Cong are not very different in age, and their relationship is quite good. Li heard his sister's voice before he got out of the car.
　　 "Uncle, brother, you are back, I haven't seen you during the Chinese New Year." While talking, he rushed to Li Cong. Since Li just got out of the car, someone hugged himself and turned around.
"Hehe, let go quickly, such a big girl, she thought she was a child, and told your brother to hold you in circles, let go quickly, and make your brother tired again." The old lady followed out. .
"Hehe, it's okay grandma, she weighs less than a hundred catties, and she hasn't seen each other for half a year. The last time I met was when my grandfather's birthday was. It's really getting more and more beautiful. It's not my sister. Such a girl must marry. Go home and be your wife, tell your brother, where the boys who chased you are in line, don’t you know the door of our house, don’t find the wrong one." Li Cong has become glib and slick since his brainstorming. The honest boy Li used to decide that he couldn't tell this from his mouth. This made Li Hui a blushing face, raised his little hand and punched his brother.
　　 "Grandma, what nonsense do you think he is talking about, uncle doesn't care about it." The little girl used her own tricks and started acting like a baby.
　　 "Hehe, stop making trouble, go home, mother, where's my father?" Father Li still used the old-fashioned name of the countryside, and walked inside.
"Your father, I'm giving you two a piece of noodles. Just when your mother lay down last night, you called and said you want to come back, so she couldn't sleep. She got up at night to fetch the noodles for you two. Go and wash your hands. Just now I called Yan'er and her mother told me that you two left early in the morning and didn’t eat. You eat while it’s hot.
​​Grandpa is such a person. He is very happy to see his son and grandson come back, but he still has to show off his face. The cold look, this is the so-called "majesty", which Li Cong's father definitely inherited from his grandfather.
　　 "Well, grandpa, don't go out, I'm looking for something to do with you, business." Seeing that the old man seemed to be going out, Li Cong quickly stopped him.
　　 "What's the matter with you, please tell me, I'll go to the brigade, and I'll come back to have a drink with your father and your father at noon after I'm done. Your uncle and your uncles will come over, and we will get together."
　　 "Then I will talk now, I want to borrow our old house for use."
"Huh? The old mansion? What are you doing with that?" The old man hadn't spoken yet, and the old lady spoke first, but Li Cong saw that his grandfather hadn't spoken, but the doubt in his eyes was bigger than that of his grandma. Children in the city, what are you doing here?
"It's this kind of father and mother. He has tinkered with a gasoline project himself and needs a place. Doesn't our family happen to have a big yard? Save money, and rent someone else's." Li's father caught Li with a sentence. From the psychology of grandparents, the elderly in the countryside pay attention to saving money. As soon as they heard about saving money, they agreed to most of them. Although it is the ancestral house of their own family, their eldest grandson needs to use it, and there is nothing unreasonable. Doesn't it matter which year has passed? Doesn't this house still belong to him? Isn't saving money for sons and grandsons just for saving yourself? The old man's thoughts have changed quickly.
　　 "Okay, I don't know what your project is. As long as you don't demolish our ancestral house, I don't care about you." The old man said while giving Li Cong the key to the ancestral house. "There is still something in my brigade. You two hurry up and eat something to pad. After eating, ask Xiaohui to take you over and clean it up. The house hasn't been occupied for several years, Chao." The old man said as he went out.
"Hey, this old man, what do you do to clean the house? We have so many rooms. Just come back and live here. Is it called Liangliang to live in the broken house over there? At the entrance of the village, there is such a strong wind. It is not covered. Hurry up. Don’t froze, go into the house and eat noodles.
The father and son agreed and walked into the house. The father and son have a characteristic, they love to eat noodles, especially the hand-made noodles. It seems that the grandmother is indeed competent, a quarter of an hour later. Li Cong hiccups when he is full, and drags his sister to the old house.
　　 "Brother, slow down, is there any antiques in our old house? You are so anxious, my hand hurts, and no one is robbing you, slow down."
　　 "What kind of antique, we have generations of poor peasants, how can there be an antique on it." While ignoring my sister's protest, he ran away quickly, causing a discussion from passers-by. "Hey, isn't this the grandson of the Li family? Why are you dragging his sister to run so anxiously?" "Yes, something happened at home or something?" "Bullshit, you control your mouth and let him The second uncle (Li Cong's grandfather) heard that you still don't discount your legs." Li Cong turned a blind eye to things outside the window, and ran toward the old house. Finally, after a short run, he came to his ancestral house.
Looking at the somewhat dilapidated house in front of him, Li Cong felt as if he saw the sky full of renminbi pounce on him, his eyes glowed green, and it made Li Hui firmer that he said that there was antiques in the house, otherwise his brother was stupid. Now, the little girl thought so, she reached out and touched her brother's head, which shocked Li Cong.
　　 "What are you doing, Xiaohui, I don't have a fever, why are you touching my head."
"You still know that you don't have a fever. If there was a camera just now, I would take it for you. Seeing you like that, it's almost impossible to show off. What is there in our old house? You are so excited, don't hide Please tell me, is there something from the Tang Dynasty in our family? Can I also make a fortune? What the is it?" It seems that everyone in the Li family has YY inheritance. The next year's little girl has started the antique YY at home.
"What do you think? I think you have a fever. Open the door and go in. Forget it, I'll come by myself. You can go home. Don't worry about it. You can go home and help grandma cook at noon. With so many people here, UU reading www.uukanshu.com grandma can't be too busy." Li Cong suddenly remembered what he was going to do so terrifying, it would be better to coax the curious baby in front of him back home.
"Really? Are you sure you don't want me to help? I'm really gone. To be honest, I really don't want to clean this old house for you. It's dirty and can't be done. I'm leaving. Goodbye dear brother "After that, Li Hui dropped the key and disappeared, making Li Cong contempt the society's low moral standards from the bottom of his heart.
Now that there is no one, let’s start your own plan. After opening the door, lock the door and there is a bare brick floor in front of you. Because there is no one in the yard, the biggest obstacle to putting the machine is cut off. And there are no tall buildings around, and there is plenty of sunshine. It is really the best place. Li Cong's first step is about to begin. He didn't go to see the moldy house, and walked around in the yard. , His mouth was still muttering, "I have to recruit people. If my big machine is thrown here, grandpa and they will definitely doubt how I got it. How can I hide it? By the way, the machine is open. Like solar energy, why don’t I buy more than a dozen solar energy and say that I assembled it myself. Haha, I’m really a genius. Forty employees are good to say. With grandpa’s prestige, 400 is not a problem. Idle workers in rural winter. Yes, but this scraping is a meticulous job. I'm afraid it won't work for men, and the salary doesn't need to be increased. I will start working when my mom brings me the money. Haha, I will be a millionaire next month.
Li Cong was still silent in his own fantasy. Who knows that the road is not as simple as he thought. The most important thing is that he has no channels at all. How can I see the rainbow without going through wind and rain? The real training has begun. Li Cong has started himself. His longing and the pain of losing his love inspire him to move on.
