Mo Yan entered the mission again, and when she woke up, she found herself on a bus, swaying and making her feel drowsy.
It's perfect so I can enjoy the story while I'm sleeping.
The original owner never married. When he was young, he left his hometown to work as a forest ranger. Now that he has retired, he wants to return to his roots.
Because of his contributions to forest protection, he receives a monthly pension of eight thousand.
After returning to her hometown, her younger brother felt that since she had no sons or grandsons, no one would take care of her in her old age and see her off in her final days.
So, in a very difficult situation, the person made their grandson act as the original owner's grandson.
The original owner was deeply moved, gave everything, and ended up with nothing.
They still acknowledged their biological parents and grandfather, but were extremely cold towards the original owner. Even after growing up, they still felt that it was the original owner who broke up their family.
Because they told the child that it was the original owner who didn't want their family to be together, so after the original owner became immobile, they simply threw them into a nursing home. The only reason they kept the original owner alive was for the original owner's pension and the house that was allocated to the original owner.
It could be said that she gave everything and ended up with nothing.
The original owner's wish was that this time she would choose a filial grandson to prove herself and show that even if they weren't blood relatives, they could still have feelings for each other. She wanted to show that her ungrateful brother that their family was full of ingrates.
To put it bluntly, they wanted other people's money, so they had their grandson adopted. But then they were afraid that their grandson would not acknowledge them in the end, so they sowed discord and took everything from their own sister. In the end, they even made her live a miserable life in a nursing home just for her retirement pension.
If it were a good nursing home, that would be fine, but it turned out to be a private, unscrupulous nursing home where people were not fed or clothed properly and were abused.
After learning what had happened, Mo Yan was already ready to take action.
The original owner thought about returning to her roots and believed that family ties were the best, but she never considered that her younger brother, who had pushed her away without hesitation out of fear of hardship, was no good at all.
My hometown is a small county town, not very big but very beautiful, with many traditional delicacies.
Mo Yan got out of the car and immediately went to eat something.
She didn't have much stuff, just one box.
Thinking of the alley in the original owner's memories, she went out.
The family that was supposed to pick her up didn't arrive for a full three hours.
She didn't have time to wait for them; she wanted to see the house allocated to her and then go out for a nice meal.
Because of her outstanding contributions, the government allocated her an apartment, a two-bedroom, one-living-room unit.
She was perfectly content living alone. Originally, the original owner hadn't considered raising a grandson; she was already 56, and by the time she raised him, she would be 70 or 80. But her younger brother kept saying that there was no one to break the pots and pans or anyone to take care of her in her final days, so she started to consider it.
Actually, the original owner had a monthly pension of 8,000 yuan, plus medical insurance. If he paid someone to take care of him, it would only cost him 2,000 to 3,000 yuan.
The remaining five thousand can be used to buy some good food.
Of course, Mo Yan wanted to see what kind of person the original owner wanted to adopt.
That child took care of the original owner during her final days. She worked at a nursing home. Before that, her parents died in a fire and she had grown up in the nursing home. That's why the original owner wanted to adopt that child.
If the child has a good personality, then we can adopt him. It's not like we've never raised children before. If he's not so great, we can just take care of him.
Before I knew it, we arrived. The house was all ready; I could just pack my bags and move in.
"Ms. Mo, here are the property certificate and keys. Please keep them safe. If you feel unwell, you can contact our community, and we will arrange for someone to take you to see a doctor." [For plot purposes, those who make outstanding contributions may be allocated housing and will be taken care of. Therefore, all worlds are fictional.]
"Thank you, I will take care of myself. You've really gone to so much trouble."
After the staff left, Mo Yan took her bag and went out to check out the nearby farmers' market and various food shops. Most importantly, she wanted to go to the nursing home to see if the child was really there.
There are plenty of food options outside, including various breakfast and lunch options.
It was lunchtime when Mo Yan found a tofu and pig's feet shop.
I ordered a pig's trotter, a bowl of tofu pudding, and a bowl of braised pork intestines.
The rice was steamed in those old-fashioned wooden buckets, which made it taste especially delicious.
It's very spicy and flavorful, and also very tender. It's very appetizing. A bowl of braised pork intestines can be paired with a bowl of rice. More importantly, the owner is very responsible.
"Auntie, can one person finish all this food? Should we give a small discount so that it won't go to waste?"
Mo Yan looked at the bowl and smiled, "Don't worry, I'll definitely finish it. Just serve me more."
For a foodie, the most frustrating thing to hear is, "You can't finish it!"
How could we possibly not be able to finish it!
The pig's feet also contain white kidney beans, which make them taste especially delicious with their slightly grainy texture. The pig's feet are served with a dipping sauce made from the owner's secret recipe.
One bite and the pig's trotter melts in your mouth, the flavor of the dipping sauce filling your entire mouth, leaving you with an unforgettable aftertaste.
There's also tofu pudding, which is also served with a dipping sauce. It's stone-ground tofu pudding, full of the aroma of soybeans.
Mo Yan finished the whole thing by herself, and the owner was stunned when it came time to pay the bill.
After finishing her meal, Mo Yan headed towards the nursing home, where she happened to see an eight-year-old boy helping with the cleaning.
The little guy's name is Lichun (立春), because he was born on the day of Lichun.
He was placed in this place because his parents had died and he had no one to take care of him.
The nursing home provides food and drink, and he has to help with chores. Sometimes he gets beaten up. Later, he was admitted to school, but he couldn't afford to study, so he had to come back to the nursing home to help.
Upon seeing Mo Yan, Li Chun thought she was her grandmother who had gone the wrong way. "Grandma, are you lost? Or is this a new grandma?"
Although Mo Yan is only 55, the work of forest ranger is very hard, so she looks like she is 60.
"Um, I just got here and I'm lost. Could you take me home?"
Li Chun readily agreed and led Mo Yan back, telling her where the vegetable market and supermarket were. When they arrived, they saw the original owner's older brother, Mo Fang.
There was also his grandson Mo Yong, and his son Mo Yuan.
"Big sister, what happened to you? We couldn't find you at the station, so we had no choice but to come here. We thought you were lost."
This is quite interesting. The original owner didn't even know that the house would be allocated here, yet they were able to find out in advance. They're really capable.
"You guys said you'd wait for me over there, but I've been at the station for over an hour and you still haven't come. I haven't eaten all day, can't you at least go buy something to eat first?"
Seeing Mo Fang's complaining expression, Mo Yan's face darkened. This guy is shameless.
To put it simply, the house belonging to this younger brother was renovated with money that the original owner sent back over the years.
