Zhang Shuguang, a struggling author from the 21st century, spent years staying up late writing. He finally died from overwork and became a member of the transmigration army.
However, Zhang Sh...
"What's so mysterious that you have to call me out to tell you?"
Zhang Xiangnan followed Zhang Xiangyang out of the house.
"Last night, Zhang Xiangdong's house collapsed. The four members of his family were unable to escape and were all crushed to death."
Zhang Xiangyang told Zhang Xiangnan the news. As for whether to tell his uncle and aunt, he let Zhang Xiangnan decide for himself.
"How could this happen? Take me to see it."
Zhang Xiangnan's mood was very complicated. It wouldn't be too sad, but it was also impossible to say that he was not touched at all.
After all, they are brothers from the same mother, so they are gone just like that.
Zhang Xiangdong and his family were lying on the door panel, their faces disfigured beyond recognition. Zhang Xiangnan stood there for a long time.
"Our destiny as brothers in this life has ended. I hope we won't meet again in the next life."
"Xiangyang, your uncle and aunt can't know about this. They are old, and I'm afraid they can't bear it.
In a few days I will take them back to southern Xinjiang, and we will take Shengli and Funi with us as well.
Take this money, and after we leave, find some people to help take them to the mountain."
Zhang Xiangnan took out all the money he had and asked Zhang Xiangyang to handle the funeral.
He planned to take his parents to southern Xinjiang and come back during the Chinese New Year, so that no one would mention this matter.
Even if my parents heard about it accidentally, they wouldn't be too sad since it has been so long.
"Xiangnan, I can't accept this money. Since we've severed our relationship, let's do it completely. The brigade will be responsible for their funeral arrangements.
Don't worry, no one will say you're dishonest. Today everyone is saying they got their comeuppance."
I told Zhang Xiangnan about this because I felt he needed to know, not because I was asking him for money.
"Here, you should at least treat everyone to a meal. Consider it my donation!"
As soon as Zhang Xiangnan returned home, he mentioned that he wanted to take the whole family away.
Fu Ni was very happy. She wanted to stay with Su Hong. Xiao Shengli didn't object. The last time his mother and elder brother left, he regretted not going with them a few days later. The old couple was very surprised and a little resistant.
"Xiangnan, your parents know how filial you are, but we don't want to leave Zhangzhuang.
As long as we are not old enough to need care, it is good to keep an eye on us at home.
I don’t know anyone there, and I don’t feel at home in the village.”
It is difficult to leave one's hometown, especially for older people. They will not leave their hometown unless they have to.
"Mom, don't worry, the people there are all very nice. I didn't know anyone when I first went there, but now everyone is on good terms.
There are elderly people there too, so you won’t find it boring if you go there.
We feel at ease knowing you two are by our side, otherwise we would feel empty."
Su Hong is a filial person. She doesn't think it's inconvenient to have the elderly around. Instead, she hopes that the whole family can live together.
"But I have a few chickens at home, and I have vegetables grown in the front yard, so it would be a shame to throw them away.
And your eldest sister-in-law, if we all go to southern Xinjiang with her, she will have nowhere to go when she returns to her parents' home."
The old couple didn't want to leave their hometown and began to find various excuses to shirk their responsibilities.
"Grandpa and grandma, let's go to my aunt's house tomorrow and kill these chickens and eat them.
We will come back during the Chinese New Year so as not to delay my aunt from returning to her parents' home.
My father has been working in the frontier for so many years. Don’t you two want to go and see the place he fought for?
Also, you two elders haven't met Yushan's parents yet, so we in the Zhang family can't be disrespectful."
Zhang Shuguang knew exactly why his father was so anxious. Of course, he also wanted his grandparents to go to southern Xinjiang to downplay the matter.
"Old man, how about we go over and take a look?"
Zhang Shuguang's words touched the old lady's heart. She really wanted to see where her son was stationed and also wanted to meet her in-laws.
"Okay, let's go."
The old man no longer refused. His eldest grandson was right. He could come back during the Chinese New Year anyway.
Go to southern Xinjiang to broaden your horizons, and come back to brag to some old guys you get along with!
The chickens at home are in their egg-laying season, and it would be a pity to kill them. Each household is limited to raising a certain number of chickens, otherwise the eldest daughter could raise them.
The next day, Zhang Shuguang and his family began to visit relatives and sent a lot of food and meat to his eldest aunt's and grandmother's families.
The key to the house was given to my great-grandfather, who was asked to come and take a look whenever he was free. They could pick and eat the vegetables grown in the front yard.
The weather is hot now, and the corpses will easily rot and stink, so everything was done in a hurry. After visiting relatives, the family prepared to return to southern Xinjiang.
Zhang Shuguang took a few wild boars to the county town, visited his old leaders and colleagues at the machinery factory, and came back with a few sleeper tickets.
Zhang Xiangnan took his family to southern Xinjiang by train. Zhang Shuguang took Zheng Yushan and the big black dog, traveling along the way and walking slowly towards southern Xinjiang.
Now that the enemies have been dealt with, I have no more worries. The system has been upgraded to the final version, and I no longer feel that urgent need for gold coins.
From now on, I will live with my family in harmony and happiness, and lead a happy life.
(The book is finished.)
