Relatives like my grandfather and my second uncle, who are thinking about me and I am thinking about you, are the real relatives.
Yang Jing had been to his second uncle's courtyard many times, so he was naturally familiar with it.
After parking the car outside, Yang Jing carried his things and walked towards his second uncle's house. He arrived at the end of the field in a few minutes.
My second uncle applied for reconstruction of this yard in 2002, and it cost a lot of money at that time. But now it seems that the money spent at that time is nothing compared to the skyrocketing housing prices in recent years.
According to my second grandfather, when the yard was rebuilt, the 200-square-meter house and the 200-square-meter yard cost a total of 200,000 yuan. However, because of the reconstruction, the yard is now estimated to be worth at least 5 million more!
In fact, in 2013, a yard of similar size to the east of my second uncle's house was sold for only 40 million because it was not rebuilt. The estimated value of my second uncle's yard by the real estate agent at that time was 45 million.
Now my second uncle and grandmother live in this yard. However, because my second uncle's great-granddaughter is attending Dongsijiutiao Primary School, my second uncle's eldest son now lives here with the old couple.
When Yang Jing entered the room, the old couple were sitting in rocking chairs in the yard basking in the sun.
The sky in Yanjing is exceptionally blue this winter. The weather in previous years where you couldn't see the moon at night and almost couldn't even see the sun during the day is almost gone. Although many netizens joked that this is "APEC blue", no matter what kind of blue it is, it is undeniable that the government's efforts to improve the environment this year have achieved quite good results.
At least now Yanjing can see the stars at night and enjoy the sunshine during the day. This is something that Yanjing people have never enjoyed in the past five or six years...
At that time, Yanjing was really "working hard in the haze, self-reliance and not smoking"...
Yang Jing's arrival made the second uncle and his wife very happy. They held Yang Jing's hand and asked questions non-stop.
My second uncle is in good health. He is 77 years old this year. He has no other problems except that he is very hard of hearing and has high blood pressure. But my second grandmother, who has worked hard all her life, is getting worse and worse.
My second grandmother is only 76 years old this year, but she looks older than an 80-year-old. There is no other way. My second grandmother married my second uncle from the suburbs of Yanjing and has never worked in her life. The nature of my second uncle's job meant that he spent less time at home when he was young, so the burden of taking care of the whole family fell on my second grandmother.
One of the important reasons why Yang Jing's grandfather left this yard to his second uncle was that Yang Jing's grandfather served in the army early, and his parents had always lived with his second uncle. His second uncle and second grandmother took care of his parents for decades, and this credit alone was enough for Yang Jing's grandfather to give this yard to his second uncle for free.
The eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping of the whole family almost all fell on the shoulders of the second grandmother. This hardworking and uneducated rural woman took care of the whole family day after day, silently devoting herself to the family without any regrets. As a result, when she got old, her health was naturally not very good.
The eldest son and his wife now live with them, one to take care of them, and the other to take care of their little grandson.
The second uncle is now a family of four generations living together. Yang Jing's great uncle Li Yuhua - this great uncle is not the great uncle from the second aunt's grandmother's side, but the eldest son of the second uncle, and the eldest uncle of Yang Jing's uncle Li Long. He is 56 years old this year, but he has been a grandfather for more than six years...
There is no other way. The second uncle of the old Li family married and had children relatively early. Yang Jing's eldest cousin became a grandfather at the age of 50. Now the youngest kid is already in the first grade in September this year.
However, my eldest cousin and his wife are not at home today. They went to Tong County to visit my second aunt and her husband, and they probably won’t be back until the afternoon.
But it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter if I can’t see my eldest cousin and eldest cousin’s wife today. Anyway, Yang Jing has already planned to stay in Yanjing for the time being. Maybe he will really study for a doctorate under Cai Yi next year.
At noon, Yang Jing prepared six dishes himself. He was definitely not a outsider here. After his second uncle drove an electric tricycle to pick up the youngest little guy Li Xiang, the family of four had a happy meal.
Li Xiang is the great-grandson of the second uncle. He is very cute and playful. Yang Jing took out a Hetian jade carved Bodhisattva pendant and gave it to the little guy. The second uncle and the second grandmother did not understand this either. They just thought it was a gift from Yang Jing, the cousin, and accepted it.
As a result, when Li Xiang's father, Yang Jing's little cousin, saw the Bodhisattva pendant later, he said directly that the value of the pendant was definitely around one million. The second uncle was so scared that he took the pendant that had been hanging around the little guy's neck away.
The little guy is not careful, if he falls or gets bumped, it's worth millions...
This Bodhisattva pendant is really worth the money. The bigger the Hetian jade, especially the high-grade Hetian white jade, the more valuable it is. Of course, if it is as big as the piece of Hetian jade that Yang Jing unearthed, that is another matter. The piece of Hetian white jade that Yang Jing unearthed is a priceless treasure. In recent decades, it is almost impossible to see Hetian white jade of this size and high quality.
Among the collection-level Hetian white jades, the ones are usually smaller in size. For example, if the weight of 1A collection-level Hetian white jade is less than 200 grams, the price per gram will exceed 10,000 yuan. This pendant is not small in size. It is carved from the leftover material of the bracelet. One pendant weighs 40 to 50 grams. The cost of the raw materials alone is 400,000 to 500,000 yuan. In addition, this pendant was carved by Master Jiang Bin, a leading figure in Beijing jade carving. The craftsmanship of this jade carving master alone is worth at least 500,000 yuan!
