It was just after six when we arrived at the hotel. Guan Yan booked a two-bedroom suite. The bedroom had a bathroom, a washing machine and a balcony, which was quite convenient. There was also a large living room where I could watch TV.
There is also a mahjong table. They love to play mahjong in their hometown, but unfortunately they are short of one.
After putting the things in the room, Guan Yan took her grandmother's hand and prepared to go downstairs to eat. Breakfast and dinner were included here. As for lunch, she planned to ask the staff to deliver it to her grandparents every day when she left. It would just cost a little extra money.
Their room is on the 12th floor and the hotel restaurant is on the 3rd floor. It is a buffet with a full range of Chinese and Western food, including morning tea, fruits, desserts, etc. Their county is one of the top 100 counties, and this hotel is the best in the county, so the service is very good.
After the three of them took their favorite food, they gathered around the round table and ate and chatted. Grandma kept praising the taste.
"Grandma, I'm going to find someone to design the blueprints tomorrow. Whatever you want to do with the yard, we'll have it all ready by then."
The Guan Yan family’s homestead was quite large, because at that time they lived together with my grandfather and several brothers. Later, the family split up and only my grandparents lived there.
The original tile house had an area of several hundred square meters. Later, when the brick house was built, it was built directly on the open space in front of the house without demolishing the tile house. Moreover, there was a large open space in front of the brick house, which belonged to her family. So this time, all the space was demolished and the yard would be very large. She wanted to renovate it according to the preferences of her grandparents.
Grandpa became interested when he talked about this: "Can we dig a small pond in our yard? We can raise some goldfish or something. The last time I went out to play with Old Li and the others, I saw the fat goldfish in the pond. It made me want to try it."
"Let's build a pavilion next to it and put a chess table there. Then we can play a few games with Teacher Zhao and the others."
My grandfather has been a teacher all his life. After retirement, he and his colleagues lived a carefree life, using their pension to have fun. The old man didn't spend much money. With a pension of more than 5,000 yuan a month, he grew vegetables and raised chickens and ducks at home, so he could never spend it all.
They were both in good health. Grandpa would go out with grandma on tours from time to time, visiting several cities, which made Guan Yan, a social animal at that time, envious.
Guan Yan opened the memo and wrote down his grandfather's request.
"Okay, let's do it. I'll have someone find some nice fish to raise in there. Any more? What do you want it to look like, grandma? The yard is pretty big."
"Then let's make a vegetable garden in the yard, build a fence and raise some chickens, ducks and geese. Build a platform and put a faucet. After picking the vegetables, you can wash them. You don't have to bring dirt into the house, which makes it cleaner."
Grandma must be looking forward to it as well, her face was all smiles when she talked about this.
"Oh, and plant some fruit trees. Yanyan loves to eat bayberry and kumquat. Buy old trees, and they'll be full of fruit when you come back next year."
"Okay, plant them all." After taking note of what the two said, Guan Yan planned to find a reliable person tomorrow to implement all these things.
"Yan Yan, just do some renovations on the house. We won't waste money. We're old and won't be able to live here for many more years. If you win the lottery, don't waste the money. Keep it for your future use."
After being overjoyed about her granddaughter's return, the grandmother's worrying nature came back, fearing that Guan Yan would spend all the money.
"It's okay, grandma. Building a house doesn't cost much. Besides, you're not old at all. I see you walk faster than me. You're very strong and can live to be a hundred years old."
What she said was indeed the truth. Grandpa and grandma were in much better shape now than she was before when she was weak and in pain.
After dinner, Guan Yan followed her grandparents to the county People's Park for a stroll. The park was quite large and there were a lot of people there at night, doing all kinds of things. Her grandparents liked this lively scene.
After returning to the hotel room later and washing up, Guan Yan, who was leaning against her bedroom, was still a little worried.
"Xiaoju, open the system mall"
She remembered Xiaoju saying that everything in the system mall was what she wanted most.
Good host
Then the mall interface appeared in front of Guan Yan, with another 6 kinds of products.
Guan Yan's eyes lit up when she saw the products. The first column was for a body-building oral liquid. The instructions read: Only one bottle is needed to keep you healthy, keep diseases away, and help you live to 99 (it will not work for those with terminal illnesses).
She loves the system so much! It's like someone sends her a pillow whenever she feels sleepy.
"Xiaoju, I want to buy 3"
Hehe, she also got one for herself. Young people nowadays are all in sub-health, and she also needs to keep fit.
[Host, 3 small goals have been deducted from the balance. The physical strengthening oral liquid has been distributed. The host has 1 small goal left.]
Immediately afterwards, three bottles of brown oral liquid suddenly appeared in front of Guan Yan. Guan Yan drank one bottle first, then went to his grandparents' room and said that this tonic was very expensive. After watching them drink it, he went back to his room to sleep.
The next morning, Guan Yan went to a construction company, explained his needs, and paid them directly to start work as soon as possible. He insisted on using the best materials and not cutting corners. He also said if they finished within three months and did a good job, they would get a large bonus. The manager was very happy. He was almost lost.
"Grandpa and grandma, why don't we go to J City for a visit? We've been familiar with this county for so many years, and it's boring. Grandpa has always wanted to see Tiananmen Square."
The older generation has a special feeling for the capital. My grandfather even listened to the Chairman’s speech on the spot.
"Okay, since we're free anyway, let's go see Tiananmen Square and climb the Great Wall. Xiaoyan, you're right, that supplement you bought is really effective. I woke up feeling so much lighter this morning that I could even climb to the 8th floor without even getting out of breath."
Grandpa has been talking more these past two days. He said his granddaughter is very successful, building a house and willing to spend time with them. They are really happy. Before going to bed last night, he praised Guan Yan for being filial to the old lady. He said that he enjoyed the blessing of his granddaughter before enjoying the blessing of his children.
Seeing that Grandma agreed, Guan Yan started to book a first-class flight for tomorrow morning. He didn't tell Grandma the price, as that would have upset her. He then handed over all the work to the construction company.
I told my grandparents that they just need to have fun this time and not to ask about the price. They smiled and said okay, we will listen to Yanyan.
The plane took off at 9:00. It was the first time for my grandparents to take a plane. Grandpa pretended to be calm, but grandma was looking at the clouds outside the window happily like a child, saying that the sky was so blue and the clouds were so white. She was such a lovely little old lady.
My grandmother is a person who, apart from being afraid of spending money, never says anything to spoil the fun. She is also very selfless to those around her, not afraid of giving, emotionally stable, and not partial. She treats her sons and daughters equally, and almost no one dislikes her. Even her son-in-law treats her as his own mother. My eldest uncle even treats her better than his own mother. My eldest aunt's cousins all call her grandpa and grandma directly, not grandpa and grandma.
