Tao Yu had a headache. He was about to say that since he had to go, he should leave early and rush back to the city to stay in the evening.
"Dad, that's not what Yu'er meant. You said you wanted to live at my uncle's house. If they have room, that would be good." Tao Yu's mother Yan Di spoke.
She is the eldest daughter of the Yan family in Longgang. She also helps her husband with his business on weekdays and is a very well-rounded person. When she saw that her husband and son were being scolded by their father-in-law, she changed her mind.
"But Ayi has also asked about it. The uncle's family has a large population, but the house is not big. It can't accommodate so many of us. We just went there to have a reunion dinner. If we insist on staying one night, I'm afraid it will cause trouble to the uncle. .”
What she said seemed to make sense. Both Tao Yu, his eldest brother Tao De and his second sister Tao Zhu all cast their eyes on Tao Haozhe.
"You don't need to worry about these things. I can't think about these things all day long. All I can say is that I blame you for spoiling me. No one can bear the hardship!"
Tao Haozhe lowered his face and took the lead in getting into the car. This car had been found a long time ago. There were four Land Rovers in total, and they lined up neatly on the highway.
He closed his eyes in the car and recalled what he had seen back then.
I hope that when I go back this time, it will be well placed. What’s more, I hope that among his descendants, there will be someone who is blessed enough to be able to afford that thing.
Yu'er, you should be able to do that, right? This is the most valuable gift grandpa can give you!
There are more than 300 households in Kaoshan Village, which is built on the mountain. Although it is not considered poor, it is not developed either.
Even so, there are still many people who are living a more prosperous life and have built two or three-story small buildings in the village.
Although Tao Le's grandfather's house did not have a building, it was renovated and rebuilt last year with the help of his uncle. The yard of the third uncle's house on the left was combined to form five blue-tiled houses, plus a more than 200 square meters. The yard is not too small.
The courtyard door was wide open. When Tao Le and his family entered, they saw that it was already very busy inside.
The third uncle, the third aunt, and the aunt were making a fire in the kitchen to cook. Two large round tables were set up in the yard, and a lot of dishes were already placed on them:
Pork head with dried radish, spicy chicken, braised chicken with cedar, steamed egg with white ginseng, and fried ham with fresh mushrooms.
Just looking at the dishes, it was not much worse than the Chinese New Year. For a while, the whole courtyard was filled with the smell of firewood and the fragrance of food.
Entering the main room, I saw my uncle's family whom I hadn't seen for a long time.
They had arrived in the morning and were talking to Grandpa in the house.
Tao Le obediently walked over and said hello to each of them, and was called over by his grandpa who was beaming with joy.
"Ouch, grandpa's pistachios are here? Come and sit down quickly and let grandpa see if our Doctor Tao is tired or thin?"
Tao Le sat down by the kang with a smile.
"Grandpa, how come you already know this, yet I still want to tell you personally as a surprise!"
In front of his loving grandfather, Tao Le instantly became more than ten years younger.
"Hahaha, then grandpa pretends not to know and let Lele tell me again?" Grandpa smiled very happily.
Tao Han, the eldest cousin who was sitting next to her, also smiled, stood up and sat next to Tao Le.
"Lele, what good thing is going on, why don't you tell your sister about it?"
"It's nothing, I just have a job," Tao Le said.
"I've also heard about this. Congratulations. It's very difficult to get into the first hospital now. If you can get in, that's really awesome. It doesn't disgrace our Tao family!"
"Thank you, Sister Han." Although they don't meet often, Tao Le likes this sweet-natured cousin very much.
In her previous life, there was no such thing as getting her second uncle back. Moreover, this Mid-Autumn Festival, she had been working overtime at Youai Hospital and had no time to come back with her family.
Uncle Tao Xingzhi, who was sitting next to him, also spoke: "Lele, you have entered the first hospital and you have officially found a job. My uncle is very happy for you."
When he said this, the aunt sitting next to him immediately took out a big, bulging red envelope from her bag and handed it to Tao Le's hand:
"Just accept your uncle's wishes."
"No need for this, uncle. I've accepted your offer, and this is just the money."
"Xingqian, if we haven't moved around for a long time, the children will be born, right?" the uncle said, pretending to be dissatisfied.
Tao Xingqian said nothing, but the old man sitting above spoke first.
"Put it away quickly when your uncle gives it to you. As the saying goes, it's a gift from the elders, and you can't refuse it!"
Having said this, Tao Le took the red envelope and thanked him again.
Such a thick red envelope is worth 10,000 yuan, and my uncle still loves him as much as ever.
Grandpa, uncle and father quickly told the story of that year and were filled with emotion. In the meantime, it is indispensable to mention the second uncle who was finally found. The whole family is full of expectations for their arrival.
They talked animatedly, and Tao Han, the eldest cousin, chatted quietly with Tao Le.
"Lele, if you enter a hospital, how much will your monthly salary be?"
"Well, I'm still in the regular training period, so I should have about three thousand, right?"
"So few?" Tao Han was shocked: "Shouldn't doctors be high-income people?"
Tao Le briefly told her about the current training system. In the past three years, she was not actually a formal employee of the first hospital, and part of her salary was paid by the training base.
"It takes three years, and you have to work overtime all the time, and you only earn so much money?" She looked at Tao Le's face without makeup, and then at the fat cat in her arms, and suddenly she became a little worried:
"It doesn't matter that I don't have much contact with you, but we are sisters after all, and I still care about you in my heart."
"You already have one more year to study medicine than others. If you add these three years to your studies, you will be thirty. This life-long event will be affected."
Tao Le didn't expect that Tao Han would change the topic to this place.
"Sister, you are still five years older than me. Has your life-long matter been resolved?" She remembered that her eldest cousin got married in the past two years in her previous life.
"Well, it's almost the same. I've already met both parents. It will probably be done before the end of the year." Tao Han said openly.
Hearing this, old events from that year came to Tao Le's mind.
The business of the cousin-in-law's family grew bigger and bigger, and they were looking forward to having a son. Unfortunately, the cousin gave birth to daughters twice in a row.
When the second daughter was born, the brother-in-law disappeared. He never saw his cousin again and never paid a penny in child support.
Cousin Tao Han is not the kind of person who stalks her. Even though she filed for divorce, the other party neither answered the phone nor responded to messages, and just kept putting off.
Tao Han also visited her parents-in-law, but all she got was cynicism from her husband's family and sister-in-law, saying that she was incapable of retaining men, which had nothing to do with them.
I don’t know if it was something done by my cousin-in-law’s family, but my uncle’s business quickly plummeted. No one was willing to do business with him, and no one was willing to lend a helping hand.
The eldest uncle suffered from depression and became ill. Despite her acupuncture treatment, he still died at the age of sixty, and the eldest aunt did not survive for a few more years.
Her cousin was five years older than her, but when they last met in her previous life, she looked haggard and looked like an old woman.
Now that we are not married yet, everything can come in time.
She must do something to disrupt this marriage that has dragged her uncle's family along!
