At noon.
Chen Guifang's family had just had lunch in the field and were sitting on the ridge to rest.
At this moment, they suddenly saw a bicycle appearing on the usually empty mountain road.
"Ah! Isn't this Chen Xianglan and her second son Li Shiqiang? Why are they riding Secretary Huang's bicycle?"
As soon as Chen Guifang finished speaking with a puzzled look on her face, her husband shook his head: "That's not right! Look at this bike, it's shiny and shiny. It's like new. It doesn't seem to belong to Party Secretary Huang's family."
"Hey, it doesn't seem to be the case!"
Chen Guifang blinked her eyes, quickly looked at the bicycle several times, and then stood up immediately.
But just when she was about to shout, Chen Xianglan jumped out of the car eagerly and spoke first: "Guifang, you are still busy in the field."
"Yes, Sister Chen. Have you had lunch?"
"I've eaten, I've eaten."
Chen Xianglan nodded with a bright face, and then said: "I just bought a bicycle when I went to the county town yesterday, and my second son insisted on riding it out to take me around."
"Ah, Sister Chen, is this your new bicycle?"
Chen Guifang's eyes widened, and she immediately came to the mountain road, looked around the bicycle and said, "Sister Chen, how much did you spend on this bicycle? It's so beautiful..."
Chen Xianglan patted the back seat of the car and said with a smile: "It's not much money, just about a hundred yuan. In addition to bicycles, we also bought a sewing machine and a watch! They are all things for the second baby's wedding."
Chen Guifang immediately gasped: "Have you bought all the three major items mentioned by the Huang family? How much will it cost?..."
"Hey, we didn't pay anything. Erwa found them all from the mountains."
"Hey, Erba is really getting more and more capable! You can find so much money!"
...
Li Shiqiang on the side smiled and said nothing, allowing the two of them to compliment each other and chat.
The smile on Chen Xianglan's lips never stopped.
After the two of them finished talking, Chen Xianglan continued to urge Li Shiqiang to drive her around the mountain road.
Anyway, whenever you see an acquaintance on the road or in the fields, you have to stop and say a few words.
Along the way, Chen Xianglan naturally received a lot of flattery and praise. Some praised her for marrying well, some praised her for giving birth to a good son, and some praised Li Shiqiang for his ability.
Anyway, Chen Xianglan laughed so hard in the end that her face turned red and her mouth was dry.
"Mom, is it time to go back?"
"What are you going back for!?"
Chen Xianglan glared and then said, "You haven't even gone to your grandparents' house yet."
No one should be missing, but her grandparents who were least willing to let her marry Li Nongchang at the beginning.
Although her grandparents had confessed their fault to Chen Xianglan before, Chen Xianglan still couldn't help but want to take her son there.
"Fine."
Li Shiqiang sighed lightly and did not refuse, riding his bicycle to his grandparents' house.
As soon as they arrived not far from their grandpa's house, they saw a lonely figure sitting at the entrance of the courtyard, staring blankly at an unknown place.
"Grandpa!"
After hearing Li Shiqiang's shouts, grandpa Chen Baoguo looked over blankly.
After seeing the mother and son coming over on bicycles, my grandfather's eyes finally brightened: "Xianglan, why are you here?"
"Old man, what are you doing sitting here?"
After Chen Xianglan jumped out of the back seat, she walked over.
"Let's get some sunshine."
Grandpa squeezed out a smile on his old face, looked at Li Shiqiang and said, "Sun Wa, you haven't been here for several days."
Li Shiqiang was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect his grandfather to be thinking about him all the time. He said quickly: "Grandpa, I will visit you more often in the future. I was busy hunting things in the mountains some time ago."
Chen Xianglan on the side also said: "Erwa was busy buying things in exchange for money to buy three big items some time ago. You see, this is the bicycle we bought in the county yesterday. In addition to bicycles, we also bought..."
Listening to Chen Xianglan's slightly proud words, grandpa didn't say anything, just looked at the mother and son with a smile.
After Chen Xianglan finished speaking, he smiled and nodded and praised: "Yes, Sun Wa has really made a difference."
After saying that, grandpa turned his head and shouted twice into the yard: "Old lady, come out quickly, Xianglan is here."
"Is Pandan here?"
After a while, grandma ran out of the house wearing reading glasses and holding a book in her hand.
"Hey, come in and sit down, I'll get you some water."
"No, Mom. Just let me do it."
After Li Shiqiang and his mother followed his grandparents into the house, they sat down and started chatting.
The content of the chat was naturally about the Li family's three major purchases in the county yesterday and Li Shiqiang's upcoming marriage.
"If that's the case, then Sun Wa can settle down her marriage with the Huang family's baby right away?"
"Absolutely. It was the Huang family who asked for three big items at first, and now that we have bought them back, it is impossible for the Huang family to go back on their word."
"What the hell! Now that Sun Wa is so capable, which girl from another family can't be worthy of her?"
"If we regret it, the Huang family will suffer the consequences. With Qingyun's temperament, we must not suffer such a disadvantage!"
After grandma just said that, she stretched out her hand to hold Li Shiqiang's hands and asked with a smile: "Sun baby, after your new house is built, would you like to let grandpa and grandma live with you?"
"Why don't you want to do this?"
Li Shiqiang smiled and said: "As the saying goes, one old person in a family is like one treasure. After you move here, our family will have two treasures."
"Hahaha, what a baby, you are already so old."
After grandma said with a smile, she was about to continue saying something when she suddenly heard an exclamation from outside the yard: "Mom, whose bicycle is this?"
Hearing this, grandpa and grandma both frowned.
After a while, the second uncle, smelling of alcohol, walked into the house.
"Hey, the bicycle parked in the yard shouldn't be yours, right?"
While shaking his body, the second uncle looked at Chen Xianglan and Li Shiqiang with a chuckle and said, "I've never seen this bicycle before. Who did you borrow it from?"
Chen Xianglan moved her mouth and was about to say something, but her grandfather Chen Baoguo directly picked up a crutch leaning against the wall and hit her third uncle with the stick.
"You bastard, Yanmei is still working alone in the fields, and you go out drinking!"
"Oh, don't hit, don't hit."
After the second uncle screamed in pain, he quickly pushed the crutch and muttered dissatisfied: "How can you beat my uncle like this in front of outsiders? Do you still want me to provide for you in your old age?"
"you...!"
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Chen Baoguo was immediately so angry that his chest rose and fell rapidly, and then he took out the crutch and hit him again.
"Are you crazy!"
The second uncle held the crutch again and pushed it away hard.
And because of this force, grandpa stepped backward and fell quickly to the ground.
